[00:00] <TJ-> Matt23456: try "hash -p /usr/local/bin/yasm" yasm
[00:00] <Matt23456> TJ: puts me in a shell?
[00:00] <TJ-> littledude: No, dhclient is launched by Network Manager after the network is started
[00:00] <TJ-> Matt23456: my typo!
[00:01] <TJ-> Matt23456: try "hash -p /usr/local/bin/yasm yasm "
[00:01] <littledude> TJ- so what could be the cause then ?
[00:01] <Matt23456> TJ: k, did that...still same error, lol!
[00:02] <littledude> the whole / is mounted rw
[00:02] <littledude> and if I kill and restart dhclient, it works
[00:02] <littledude> It's only during the boot that it happens.
[00:02] <TJ-> Matt23456: OK, then your compiler script has hard-coded the binary path it seems
[00:02] <lccadmin> I've got vlc set up to capture audio and video.  Has anyone ever used ubuntu to take somethiing like that and get it onto google hangouts?
[00:02] <TJ-> Matt23456: "hash -lt yasm" will show you what bash has cached
[00:03] <TJ-> littledude: Do you have a separate file-system for /var/ ?
[00:03] <Matt23456> TJ: yasm not found...
[00:03] <littledude> no
[00:03] <littledude> it's on /
[00:04] <kmyst> is there a build log you can save when you compile a source deb?
[00:04] <TJ-> Matt23456: that means you've cleared the cache... it'll be re-added next time it is called. Run the compile, let it call yasm, break the make, and then check what it is set to now, if anything
[00:05] <unclescratchie> Bashing-om, : tried DD,   reinstalling now, will see what happens.....looks like that little partition went away
[00:05] <TJ-> kmyst: "fakeroot debian/rules binary 2>&1 | tee /tmp/build.log"
[00:05] <Matt23456> TJ: still yasm not found...
[00:05] <TJ-> Matt23456: must be hard coded then, in the Makefile
[00:05] <Bashing-om> unclescratchie: Well, That was quick ! .. good luck .
[00:05] <kmyst> TJ-: ugh, i was afraid of that :/
[00:05] <kmyst> TJ-: gonna have to recompile eh?
[00:06] <unclescratchie> Bashing-om, : if this works the next thing will be to get the wifi working
[00:06] <TJ-> kmyst: Did you do a customised build?
[00:06] <TJ-> kmyst: If it is the default package build, you could look at the build logs on launchpad for that package-version
[00:07] <kmyst> TJ-: nah, pulled down latest samba source in precise (3.6.3) tried to compile and it fails, i need to compile it with a new flag but if this can't build i'm up a creek ;)
[00:07] <kmyst> TJ-: that's an idea i hadn't thought of that...
[00:08] <unclescratchie> Bashing-om, : nope  still died at boot loader install,   lets finish without installing boot and try a manual install
[00:09] <Matt23456> TJ: I don't see any yasm references in the make?
[00:09] <Bashing-om> unclescratchie: If it works, the easiest thing to get WIFI working is get the lap top to a wired connection and update/upgrade the software. A real good chance the WIFI drivers will be loaded then.
[00:10] <TJ-> Matt23456: hang on! Those instructions for building yasm have "--bindir="$HOME/bin" " and the later instructions to build ffmpeg also have "--bindir="$HOME/bin" "
[00:10] <alejandro_> vatos que onda morros
[00:11] <Matt23456> TJ: I don't follow?
[00:11] <alejandro_> me la jale y salio leche
[00:11] <TJ-> Matt23456: So if yasm wasn't installed to "$HOME/bin/" then the $PATH will take precedence ... doesn't explain why it seems to miss "/user/local/bin" unless that isn't in the $PATH right now, or not ahead of "/usr/bin"
[00:12] <Bashing-om> unclescratchie: Are you doing a standard install, or getting fancy with directing the installer for particular partitioning ?
[00:12] <Matt23456> TJ: Is there an easy fix?
[00:13] <dexx> lads I have a question
[00:13] <kmyst> TJ-: where they hide the build log? found the source on launchpad
[00:13] <dexx> here in ubuntu, if I hover my mouse over a gif it starts autoplay, which I don't always like... how do I cancel it?
[00:13] <unclescratchie> Bashing-om, : just a standard install,  still having a problem   that small partition is gone but I still cant delete the other partitions
[00:14] <TJ-> Matt23456: I'm trying to figure out why yasm's configure points to the $HOME/bin when nothing else has been installed at that point, but regardless of that, it should be installing its binaries under "--prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build"
[00:14] <kmyst> TJ-: nm got it :)
[00:15] <Bashing-om> unclescratchie: " I still cant delete the other partitions" are you using GParted from within the install ? or from the liveDVD ?
[00:15] <MikeM_> Is there an ubuntu-md discussion?
[00:16] <Matt23456> TJ: I can't understand why the 12.04 package manager is still running with the old version in the repos
[00:16] <unclescratchie> Bashing-om, : from live cd but gparted not working,  must be some kind of write protect on all of it
[00:17] <TJ-> Matt23456: It's 12.04 ... the packages were frozen about 2 months before release, only bug and security fixes are applied after release
[00:17] <Matt23456> ah
[00:18] <unclescratchie> Bashing-om, :   sorry  have to go ....thanks for the help
[00:18] <Matt23456> TJ: I appreciate your time!
[00:19] <Bashing-om> unclescratchie: IF the partitions you are attempting to delete are 'logical' that reside in the "extended" container-> a) is it that 'extended' partition; or b) is the swap partition active ( key icon in the GParted window) on the partitions you are trying to delete ?
[00:19] <TJ-> Matt23456: I just built yasm, and ran "yasm --version" and now "hash -lt yasm" reports "builtin hash -p /home/tj/bin/yasm yasm"
[00:19] <MikeM_> Is there an ubuntu discussion specific to ubuntu-md?
[00:19] <Matt23456> TJ: can you share your yasm build commands?
[00:20] <TJ-> Matt23456: Identical to the Wiki. I think your problem is, the instructions add "$HOME/bin" to the end of the path; it needs to be at the front to beat /usr/bin/yasm from being found. Do "export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin" and try "yasm --version" again
[00:21] <TJ-> Matt23456: ignore that!!!
[00:21] <Matt23456> TJ: too late...
[00:21] <TJ-> Matt23456: I wrote it wrong way around, too LOL ... "export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH" !!
[00:21] <Matt23456> TJ: that fixed the version!
[00:21] <chmrr> TJ-: Looks like the PPA builds failed. :/
[00:21] <TJ-> Matt23456: oh well, it won't hurt to be at both ends :) It'll go away next time you log-out :)
[00:22] <TJ-> Matt23456: Yup... their instructions for the PATH are reversed to what they need
[00:22] <Matt23456> TJ: THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
[00:22] <TJ-> chmrr: Oh phooey! I best go look
[00:23] <TJ-> chmrr: Yeah, failed here too, lots of tests have failed :(
[00:23] <chmrr> It looks like test failures, but I'm having trouble parsing the nature of the test fails
[00:23] <MikeM_> quit
[00:23] <Matt23456> TJ: Thanks again!
[00:24] <TJ-> Matt23456: Glad we figured it out :)
[00:29] <TJ-> chmrr: Doesn't look good; leak test seems to have failed
[00:29] <chmrr> TJ-: My wild guess is that the first hunk of the patch you applied is enough to fix the segfault.  The fourth is the memory leak, and the middle two may depend on other commits
[00:29] <chmrr> Interesting that there are leak tests for that codepath, but that they didn't trigger the segfault
[00:30] <TJ-> chmrr: leak tests typically wrap the library being tested with their own malloc/free implementations, similar to valgrind
[00:31] <TJ-> chmrr: I'll take a look again tomorrow, and maybe someone else will have taken a look too by then
[00:31] <chmrr> Sure, but they require exercising the library in order to test the various malloc/free calls
[00:31] <chmrr> Which should have nominally found the free-without-malloc as well
[00:31] <chmrr> Sure -- t'is late for you
[00:31] <chmrr> Thanks for looking
[00:32] <microm> Anyone knows how to fix this the right way: /etc/init.d/cups: broken symbolic link to `/lib/init/upstart-job'
[00:33] <laspahr> this might be a bit off topic.. but how would I find my SMTP server?
[00:36] <TJ-> chmrr: see http://paste.ubuntu.com/7956693/
[00:39] <chmrr> Hm; what's the meaning to having extra lines?
[00:41] <axsuul> Was root removed in 14.04?
[00:43] <kevinfish> how do I fix this?  http://pastebin.com/wRnuaTkz
[00:44] <chmrr> TJ-: Ah, https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Testing/Check-localplt somewhat clarifies.  But doesn't really help me determine why your patch is causing that
[00:44] <TJ-> chmrr: correction to my pastebin, I included the wrong comparison file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7956739/
[00:47] <jasabella> hi :) i think mtrr settings are incorrect and was wondering if anybody had any links explaining how to fix it?
[00:47] <warrengee> Is this the right place to ask questions about kernel compiling for Ubuntu?
[00:48] <laspahr> hello..?
[00:48] <chmrr> TJ-: I was hoping to void cloning the glibc git repo while investigating this.  But the gitweb can only provide so much. :)
[00:50] <Bashing-om> axsuul: ?? are you referring to 'pkexec' // new kid on the block executable.
[01:00] <chmrr> TJ-: Other patches in debian/patches/ add calls to feof and memmem, but I see no reason why your change would in any way change the situation.  I think I'm out of my depth, here.
[01:02] <morenoh150> how do I add windows to my grub options?
[01:03] <morenoh150> I recently reinstalled but it didn't pick up windows
[01:03] <TJ-> chmrr: I'm looking at the upstream in case there are related patches, but not found anything obvious so far
[01:04] <Izura9> Hey room, anyone had problems with clamav leaving a bunch of leftover files in /etc and other places?
[01:04] <Izura9> after purging
[01:08] <capoderra2> I hope I've finally joined
[01:08] <capoderra2> ok, so I installed beep, but issuing the beep command makes no sound
[01:08] <capoderra2> I know my pc speakers work, so can someone help me troubleshoot this?
[01:09] <capoderra2> I'm talking about the internal speaker specifically
[01:12] <Izura9> anyone had problems fully uninstalling clamav?
[01:12] <capoderra2> Izura9, what command did you use?
[01:13] <Izura9> sudo apt-get purge clamav    but there are a bunch of leftover files scattered around
[01:13] <TJ-> chmrr: Grrr! It's not my patch, I think it is the previous change! I was looking for uses of "memmem" and: "debian/patches/any/CVE-2014-0475.diff:43:+  if (__builtin_expect ((memmem (name, namelen,"
[01:14] <ObrienDave> Izura9, most packages leave residual files after purge. especially if those files are not part of the install process
[01:15] <Izura9> ObrienDave: I see, i found a folder named debian that it left behind but the others i think need admin priveledge to remove
[01:15] <Izura9> i deleted the debian folder
[01:15] <ObrienDave> Izura9, you would have to delete the others through terminal and sudo
[01:16] <Izura9> hmmm i thought i might have to do that. just wary that i'll delete something crucial in sudo
[01:16] <sagat> alguem ai  pode me ajudar
[01:17] <ObrienDave> Izura9, be careful ;)
[01:17] <Izura9> ObrienDave: i'll try to be!
[01:17] <Izura9> :)
[01:17] <Izura9> thank you though
[01:17] <ObrienDave> backup? we don't need no stinking backup ;P
[01:18] <ObrienDave> *hint hint*
[01:18] <Izura9> what's this thing you call a backup? :p
[01:18] <sagat> here is only in English?
[01:18] <ObrienDave> i dunno, never used one ;P
[01:18] <ObrienDave> sagat, yes, what is your native language?

[01:40] <capoderra2> hey, if I issue modprobe pcspkr, I can get my internal speaker to beep with beep command, but once I restart it stops working, I have to do modprobe again
[01:40] <capoderra2> how do I get it to stay after reboot?
[01:41] <laspahr> what's the easiest and/or quickest way to find my SMTP server..?
[01:41] <laspahr> sorry it's a little off topic

[01:45] <benyamin> Can anyone help me? i want have a screen magnifying glass for my ubuntu, that small and fast. can anyone reffer me to an apps? i have try Virtual Magnifying glass and it has bug.. -_-
[01:47] <Beldar> benyamin, ctrl-mouse wheel with magnify and shrink
[01:47] <Beldar> will*
[01:47] <benyamin> Beldar: only that beldar?
[01:48] <Beldar> benyamin, Only one I can think of at the moment.
[01:48] <benyamin> Beldar: for xubuntu ? if it works?
[01:48] <benyamin> Beldar: For the whole desktop?
[01:49] <Beldar> benyamin, Not sure, basically some of the work is on your end, this is free help. ;)
[01:49] <Beldar> orca is another
[01:50] <knob> Hello everyone.
[01:50] <knob> I have a n00b-ish question
[01:50] <benyamin> Beldar: Orca is discontiniud and having big problem with xubuntu
[01:50] <Beldar> !orca
[01:50] <benyamin> !orca?
[01:51] <Beldar> !info orca
[01:51] <benyamin> Beldar: That's?
[01:51] <knob> My computer is a little bit laggy.   It's just mili-seconds when I am working on the Ubuntu Desktop.        The odd thing is: this is a fresh Ubuntu install (has about 2 months).  The computer has 16GB of ram, an Intel 520 SSD (256GB), and an Intel i7 proc (stock).    Any idea what could be going on?
[01:51] <Beldar> I'm talking with the bit just checking orca benyamin
[01:51] <knob> The best thing that crosses my mind is... maybe a better video card?    I play no games... so I have a no-name $65 video card.
[01:51] <Beldar> bot*
[01:52] <benyamin> knownasilya: i think that's overheating?
[01:52] <knob> Yet I move two monitors..   Don't know..   It isn't impossibly laggy... just, well, it is not snappy.
[01:52] <knob> What do you guys think I could check/do?
[01:52] <juanp1> Ola k ase
[01:52] <benyamin> knob: Just check the temprature
[01:52] <knownasilya> benyamin: wrong person :)
[01:53] <benyamin> knownasilya: sorry dude :s
[01:53] <Beldar> knob, ubuntu min hardware, theren are other lighter desktops
[01:53] <knob> benyamin, ... mmm...
[01:53] <daftykins> knob: what kind of card? "lspci"
[01:53] <knownasilya> :)
[01:53] <benyamin> knob: how about that?
[01:53] <knob> daftykins, hmm... not sure.    Can I find that via dmesg?
[01:53] <daftykins> knob: see the command i included
[01:53] <knob> benyamin, well, yeah.  I mean, sure.       Yet, she's water cooled, and not overclocked.   She is stock
[01:53] <knob> daftykins, ok... sec
[01:54]  * Beldar loves appropriate nicks
[01:54] <benyamin> knob: when is your ubuntu becoming laggy? running apps or other things?
[01:54] <benyamin> maybe the graphic cards.
[01:54] <knob> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7957090/
[01:54] <daftykins> benyamin: well done for catching up
[01:55] <daftykins> nvidia geforce GT610
[01:55] <benyamin> daftykins: yeah. he have noname graphice card :|
[01:55] <knob> benyamin, mainly when I switch windows, or FireFox/Chrome.        She's pretty much clean.
[01:55] <daftykins> knob: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:55] <knob> That graphics card is moving two monitors... btw
[01:56] <knob> daftykins, she's downloading... although I *think* I had installed pastebinit previously
[01:56] <daftykins> it would just say already installed then
[01:57] <benyamin> knob: she's like your gf right? you sleep with IT *jk*
[01:57] <knob> Yup... pastebinit is already the newest version.
[01:57] <daftykins> benyamin: none of that kind of talk in here thanks.
[01:57] <knob> benyamin, haha... well... I do use it for everything.       Going to read the man page...
[01:59] <daftykins> knob: ok so you are using the open source nouveau driver right now, there are two things you can do. 1) check performance with only one screen connected. 2) install the nvidia driver and see if that improves performance.
[01:59] <daftykins> yes it does indeed
[02:00] <knob> daftykins, going to shoot for the nvidia drivers first... if now, I will test it out with one monitor
[02:00] <knob> btw, thanks for all the help everyone.   Very much appreciated :)
[02:00] <daftykins> knob: ok make sure you use a packaged version, no downloading direct from nvidia.
[02:01] <knob> daftykins, I am googling how to go about it now.   10-4 on the no-direct nvidia
[02:01] <daftykins> knob: system settings -> software and sources -> hardware drivers tab
[02:02] <knob> in 14.04 I have System Settings --> Software & Updates
[02:02] <knob> daftykins, got it
[02:03] <daftykins> ah my bad, i never remember the name right
[02:03] <knob> np... 99% same thing
[02:04] <knob> Now it tells me "This device is using an alternative driver".   Then I have variosu options.    Four propietary, and tested.
[02:04] <knob> Any... preferences?
[02:07] <daftykins> knob: nah, experiment! :D
[02:07] <knob> 10-4!  I set out for the first one now... will try that, and report back.
[02:07] <knob> w00t!
[02:09] <knob> brb... gonna reboot her
[02:12] <knob> w00t w00t
[02:12] <knob> First impressions: Perfect!!! Snappy as should be!
[02:12] <knob> :D
[02:14] <daftykins> knob: winner \o/
[02:14] <knob> oh yeah man
[02:14] <knob> defintely
[02:14] <knob> minute 3 first impressions.... THIS is it
[02:14] <knob> Now it's like YEAH!
[02:14] <knob> win/win today... Desktop fixed... Motorcycle Carburetors Fixed...   Life is good.
[02:14] <knob> lol
[02:14] <knob> thanks man
[02:15] <daftykins> np

[02:35] <ramrebol> Hi. Someone uses gnome shell and uses some like "workspace grid" https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/484/workspace-grid/  ?  I'm looking for something like that
[02:35] <eeee> !th | cmtek
[02:35] <TJ-> chmrr: Still about?
[02:38]  * cfhowlett thinks that bot would be a whole lot more useful if it was actually posted in the Thai language ...
[02:38] <daftykins> i agree
[02:39] <somsip> cfhowlett: I guess we'd submit that to one of the ops? I can get it translated...
[02:39] <TJ-> chmrr: fingers crossed; new build on the go: https://launchpad.net/~tj/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+sourcepub/4332432/+listing-archive-extra
[02:40] <cfhowlett> somsip, that would be helpful!  In fact, we really should have  a standard format for ALL the various translations ... nothing like messaging a non-english user in english to be UNhelpful.
[02:41] <somsip> cfhowlett: I'll get Thai done, but up to the ops to cover the rest I think
[02:41] <cfhowlett> somsip, thank you!  Little things like that are more important than you might appreciate.
[02:42] <somsip> cfhowlett: np - OT so over and out :)
[02:42] <TJ-> We should have ircbot-standar-phrases package in the archives, and the translation teams could deal with it automatically :)
[02:43] <cfhowlett> TJ-, OMG!  The logic - it's so overwhelming!  *tears of joy*
[02:43] <TJ-> cfhowlett: I'll put it on my to-do list :)
[02:58] <ramrebol> Is there a way to get a workspace grid in Gnome shell ??
[03:01] <Beldar> ramrebol, you familiar with the extensions, https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/484/workspace-grid/
[03:07] <Hilikus> there must be some kind of "apt-get update" somewhere in the system that Software Updater does in the background to report new updates. where would this be, it stopped working in mine since i updated to 14.04, now updates are not checked until i manually open the Software Updater
[03:08] <cfhowlett> Hilikus, system > update manager settings
[03:12] <chmrr> TJ-: Thanks -- I'll keep an eye on the builds
[03:12] <ramrebol> Beldar: I'm trying to install that, but dont works. I suposse that is because is outdated
[03:13] <chmrr> TJ-: Any idea why those didn't trigger for the previous build?
[03:13] <TJ-> chmrr: I'm hoping my fixes for the previous patches will deal with the test-suite failure... can't be sure until it completes though, it's weird stuff
[03:13] <TJ-> chmrr: No idea, but the main archive builders can have things like tests ignored
[03:14] <TJ-> chmrr: Once this is done, I'm going to build the .14 without any changes here and see if it does build or not, to be certain
[03:14] <Beldar> ramrebol, Possibly so, you might run a search for another, the extensions are user made so are available when people contribute.
[03:15] <TJ-> chmrr: I'm wondering though, how the update can be applied, if apt-get is SIGSEGV-ing
[03:15] <chmrr> TJ-: Hm.  Except upstream _did_ take the memmem change as-is.  And IIRC there are other feof() calls already in there
[03:15] <ala-lala> chmrr: (off-topic) Where did you get your nick from?
[03:15] <chmrr> TJ-: I'll scp it and dpkg -i it
[03:15] <chmrr> ala-lala: Star Control II
[03:15] <ala-lala> I got mine from that too.
[03:16] <ala-lala> I totally love that game.
[03:16] <ramrebol> Beldar:
[03:16] <ramrebol> I have looked for another, but I found none.
[03:16] <chmrr> What, an Arilou name? :)
[03:16] <TJ-> chmrr: I know you can, but the archive updates need to be possible without manual intervention... I'm thinking a pre-inst script that simply removes "/etc/services" out of the way until the update is done. If the file isn't there, the memory won't be allocated
[03:16] <ala-lala> No
[03:16] <ala-lala> A Supox name.
[03:16] <ala-lala> It's the name of the supox captain you first meet.
[03:16] <chmrr> <3 me some Supox.
[03:16] <TJ-> chmrr: I'll test that in a VM tomorrow once I've made some progress
[03:17] <Beldar> ramrebol, Ah, I guess the web is your oyster grasshopper. ;)
[03:17] <chmrr> TJ-: Yeaaaaaah, I don't know how to automatically fix folks who get into my state.  The problem is you can't get as far as _getting_ any pre-insta script if apt-get horks.
[03:18] <TJ-> chmrr:  Are you able to test the bug itself now, by simply renaming "/etc/services" and seeing if the SIGSEGV still happens?
[03:18] <chmrr> Sure; one sec.
[03:19] <TJ-> chmrr: Thanks, if that works we can add to the pre-inst script
[03:19] <chmrr> TJ-: No dice; same failure
[03:19] <TJ-> chmrr: Darn!
[03:20] <TJ-> chmrr: maybe nsswitch needs changing to just "file" temporarily, too ?
[03:20] <TJ-> chmrr: my thinking then is, it will only look for /etc/services, which won't exist, so it'll return
[03:20] <chmrr> Nope.  It's already just "db files"
[03:20] <TJ-> chmrr: Grrr :p
[03:21] <TJ-> chmrr: try loosing the "db"
[03:21] <chmrr> I did, and both with and without /etc/services it's the same
[03:21] <chmrr> :/
[03:21] <TJ-> chmrr: OK ... build completed :)
[03:22] <chmrr> Looks like sa sadface on amd64. :/
[03:23] <TJ-> chmrr: Yeah, it's not being very friendly to us
[03:24] <chmrr> Looking at https://launchpadlibrarian.net/181542570/eglibc_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.15_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.15~tj1.diff.gz , I'm not convinced strstr is right, there.  the "slashdot" tring isn't null-terminated
[03:25] <junlin> quit
[03:25] <junlin> what is this
[03:26] <somsip> junlin: try "/quit"
[03:27] <Basketball> how can i install the gnome software center
[03:27] <TJ-> chmrr: Darn! I meant to add a 0 to the end of slashdot!
[03:29] <chmrr> I'm also just unsude of that change in general -- upstream still contains the memmem, and its localplt doesn't contain memmem
[03:29] <OrthodoxiOS> hello
[03:29] <TJ-> chmrr: Once it fails here I can check the diffs see if any other functions are exposed in the plt
[03:29] <chmrr> s/unsude/unsure/
[03:29] <ala-lala> heh
[03:30] <TJ-> chmrr: There's something strange. A build of the plain .14 will help here
[03:31] <chmrr> TJ-: Yeah, I think that'd be the most interesting thing at this point.
[03:31] <OrthodoxiOS> havent been on in ages
[03:31] <user123321> Any suggestion for a good program for compressing/splitting files (with GUI)?
[03:31] <cfhowlett> user123321, what kind of files do you mean
[03:32] <user123321> cfhowlett, As of now, I want to store 4GB+ files in a fat32 with splitting, compression is an added advantage.
[03:32] <greeter> greetings everyone. multiple ssl enabled sites aren't loading for me, because of an ssl handshake failure. it isn't every website, and i can't seem to find help online, most documents troubleshoot ssl issues in httpd or similar. any ideas where i can start to look for the issue?
[03:33] <cfhowlett> user123321, not how much ... what KIND? audio, video???
[03:33] <Bashing-om> Basketball: Check out: apt-cache show software-properties-gtk, that seems to be compatible with most releases. To install -> sudo apt-get install software-properties-gtk <- .
[03:33] <TJ-> chmrr: It fails on the main builders.... check the log search for "Testsuite failures" https://launchpadlibrarian.net/180981194/buildlog_ubuntu-lucid-amd64.eglibc_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14_UPLOADING.txt.gz
[03:33] <user123321> cfhowlett, Any kind of file
[03:33] <cfhowlett> user123321, got it.
[03:34] <Basketball> Bashing-om,  that doesnt install it
[03:34] <cfhowlett> user123321, "archive manager" does that, does it not?
[03:34] <chmrr> TJ-: Fascinating.  Yeah, OK, I think we can file this as "not our problem" then, as long as it doesn't fail any _additional_ changes.
[03:35] <user123321> cfhowlett, Oh does it? I'll check it, since I'm having LUbuntu.
[03:36] <TJ-> chmrr: Yeah... back to the original patch then!
[03:36] <TJ-> chmrr: But, still can't build it unless we can figure out how they suppress the build errors
[03:37] <Bashing-om> Basketball: I did not want it // but I just did install it ... do not know what I can say .. what errors are you getting ?
[03:38] <Basketball> Bashing-om,  software-properties-gtk is already the newest version.
[03:38] <Basketball> software-properties-gtk set to manually installed.
[03:38] <Basketball>
[03:38] <user123321> Oh, I already have archive manager. :D
[03:38] <chmrr> TJ-: I suspect that ubuntu-security will know the right incants in that regard.  Have you heard back from them at all?
[03:39] <chmrr> I'm currently compiling upstream to see if it passes its own localplt test
[03:39] <fsof> TJ-: there?
[03:40] <Bashing-om> Basketball: What is held ? -> apt-mark showholds <- .
[03:40] <fsof> Also, have anyone in here used ubuntus signed bootloader to load other distros?
[03:41] <TJ-> chmrr: Not so far
[03:41] <Basketball> Bashing-om,  how do i run that
[03:42] <Beldar> fsof, The bootloader I believe is open source others use it.
[03:42] <Bashing-om> Basketball: "apt-mark showholds" is a terminal command to list what the package manager has marked as "manual" ..let's look .
[03:42] <TJ-> chmrr: That builder log I linked you to last, that *was* the upstream build as uploaded by the security team
[03:42] <fsof> Beldar: yes, but the kernel of other distros may not be signed
[03:42] <Beldar> fsof, Err a dollar was paid to fork it anyway I think
[03:42] <fsof> Beldar: can the signed loader load unsigned kernels?
[03:42] <Beldar> no idea
[03:42] <Basketball> Bashing-om,  it doesnt show anything
[03:43] <fsof> Beldar: a dollar?
[03:43] <chmrr> TJ-: That was the latest security release from Ubuntu, I thought.  I mean straight from glibc's git repo.
[03:43] <Nonato> Ahhh
[03:43] <Nonato>  intente instalar tres ubuntus
[03:43] <Nonato>  y ....
[03:43] <Bashing-om> Basketball: In that case look at the setting in software center, see what they are set too .
[03:43] <Nonato> me kede con hayra
[03:43] <Beldar> fsof, You will have to check the net on the history of it.
[03:44] <Beldar> Nonato, English?
[03:44] <Nonato> yeah
[03:44] <fsof> TJ-: i found out why gnome3.12 had no networking using the gnome3 teams ppa
[03:44] <Nonato>  I try to install three ubuntu but I cant
[03:45] <Nonato>  so ... now ... Iam using hayra
[03:45] <Nonato>  :(
[03:45] <Beldar> Nonato, English channel there are locals of other languages if needed.
[03:45] <rimdeker> Hey guys, how come an init.d process of mine doesn't start? It doesn't give any errors or anything either
[03:45] <rimdeker> it does create a .pid file
[03:45] <rimdeker> but then nothing
[03:45] <Nonato> If you can read I am writing in english
[03:45] <Nonato>  thanks for said that someone else
[03:47] <fsof> Beldar: https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=err+a+dollar+was+paid+to+fork+it&btnG=Search&hl=en&gbv=1
[03:47] <fsof> Beldar: nothing stands out
[03:48] <TJ-> chmrr: Precisely. That log - with its failed test-suite - shows it continued to build even after the test-suite failures, and generated the binaries that were copied into the main archive. I have no idea how to reproduce that ignoring the failure
[03:48] <TJ-> chmrr: the link to the build status page that in turn links to that log is here https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-security/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/6221477
[03:50] <chmrr> TJ-: Yeah, I get that somehow the release team's build of -0ubuntu7.14 kept right on going despite the test failures, and we don't know how to emulate that.  I'm currently curious about the introduction of memmem into the upstream glibc.git repo, and how that has _ever_ passed their localplt test
[03:51] <Beldar> fsof, probably closer, that was some terrible foo you used. http://blog.hansenpartnership.com/linux-foundation-secure-boot-system-released/
[03:51] <chmrr> Determining to finish the build despite the test failures is the more productive thing to do, but one that I have precisely zero insight into; hence why I'm poking at the underlying localplt problem
[03:52] <TJ-> chmrr: I followed the upstream guidance on tracking down and fixing the PLT entries
[03:53] <fsof> Beldar: terrible foo as specifically?
[03:53] <Beldar> Nonato, The key here is clear details for help.
[03:54] <chmrr> TJ-: The wiki I linked to?  Right.  Except the memmem is _still_ in HEAD of glibc.git, and it's not in the localplt file.  Sooo do the upstream devs not care about their trunk not passing tests, as well?
[03:54] <Beldar> fsof, You just quoted what I said with no reference to secure boot...etc. All of what I said was a I think scenario anyway
[03:55] <TJ-> chmrr: It seems that way doesn't it? but if so, why is the package build allowed to fail - why no patch to explicitly allow it, like the other patches that do similar
[03:55] <Nonato> i have some problems to instal ubuntu 8.10
[03:55] <Nonato>  or 8.04
[03:56] <Nonato> someone knows abut ubuntu that can run with 500 mg ram
[03:56] <Nonato>  :(
[03:56] <Beldar> Nonato, Those are end of life you want 12.04 or 14.04
[03:56] <OerHeks> Lubuntu can
[03:56] <Beldar> Nonato, Go xubuntu or lubuntu
[03:56] <Nonato> I know
[03:56] <Nonato>  I have once 12.04
[03:57] <Nonato>  but now I cant buy an a new computer
[03:58] <Nonato> I will thin about it
[03:58] <Nonato>  did u know about hayra?
[03:59] <TJ-> chmrr: OK, I've figured out why the sbuild from the repos doesn't match what is in the builders! The package sbuild provides /usr/bin/sbuild (a PERL script) whereas the sbuild in the builder is a Python script from the repo launchpad-buildd
[04:00] <Beldar> Nonato, Do you understand Portuguese I see no Galician channels, your english is rather broken is all.
[04:00] <TJ-> chmrr: correction, a different PERL script in launchpad-buildd
[04:00] <Nonato> My english is perfect
[04:01] <Etiziel> how to i update the hwe stack on ubuntu 12.04?
[04:01] <Beldar> Nonato, If you say so, just trying to make sure you get help. ;)
[04:01] <Beldar> the attitude sucks though
[04:02]  * Beldar says ban the machismo
[04:02] <Nonato> definitly

[04:40] <YokoBR> Guys, seriously, pulseaudio sucks.
[04:44] <Loshki> YokoBR: we know.
[04:45] <YokoBR> too many conflicts.. everytime i have to start the game first, then teamspeak, and hope it doesn't crash
[04:46] <APL3> Hi ! I have a 64 bits capable computer (Core 2 Duo) but 2Gb of ram and no plan to ever add more. What are the pro and con of 64 bits Ubuntu over 32 bits ?
[04:46] <Etiziel> found HWE answer here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/493541/hardware-enablement-stack-hwe-out-of-support
[04:46] <YokoBR> Right before ubuntu officially moved to pulse, alsa was becoming so stable and nice.... for the 3, 4 releases after that i've removed pulse...
[04:48] <greeter> pulse started off horrible for me. it's much improved now. only thing it interferes with is skype, which i rarely use
[04:49] <Loshki> I used to do this: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-all-pulseaudio-related-issues.html. I haven't needed for a couple of LTSes now...
[04:49] <Loshki> haven't needed for -> haven't needed to for
[05:06] <metaspike> http://pastebin.com/jMwen0KN
[05:06] <metaspike> pulseaudio, resume from pm-suspend
[05:07] <Your_Dog> hello, just attempted to upgrade 13.04 to 14.04. Unfortunately it failed and i would like to know if there are ways to fix it
[05:07] <metaspike> "it failed?" can u be more specific...
[05:07] <metaspike> when does it fail
[05:07] <Your_Dog> after it downloaded the updates, during the installing update phase
[05:08] <Your_Dog> it told me about failed package and my system will become unusable
[05:09] <metaspike> did you follow a guide or just try your own method to upgrade?
[05:10] <Your_Dog> well i didnt follow the guide, i just use the updater it has bundled on
[05:10] <Your_Dog> since i wanted to get firefox 31 and 13.04 doesnt have it
[05:11] <Your_Dog> so i decided to upgrade
[05:11] <metaspike> .. that sucks. any custom repos?
[05:11] <Your_Dog> well yeah but not by alot
[05:12] <Your_Dog> its just code::blocks and aside from that is a ps2 emulator
[05:12] <metaspike> because third party repositories may be incompatible with the new version, you should remove them first, then try to upgrade. you will loose whatever came with them of course
[05:13] <Your_Dog> well yeah the updater did warn me that and it did it for me
[05:14] <Your_Dog> right now since it failed halfway with the update, i cant boot the system, my only choices are reinstall the os or find a fix
[05:14] <Your_Dog> i tried some methods like sudo dpkg --configure a
[05:14] <Your_Dog> but it says that those programs are readonly
[05:14] <metaspike> you need to do something to make it read/write
[05:15] <metaspike> from safemode
[05:15] <metaspike> maybe: mount -o remount,rw /
[05:15] <metaspike> then, dpkg-reconfigure --all
[05:16] <Your_Dog> ok doing it
[05:17] <metaspike> then tap your heels together
[05:18] <metaspike> and say "there's no place like home"
[05:18] <mojach> nono... no place like <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:18] <metaspike> :)
[05:20] <Your_Dog> hmmh
[05:20] <Your_Dog> right now everything went fine till
[05:20] <Your_Dog> /sbin/start-stop-daemon: unable to chdir() to /root (permission denied)
[05:20] <Your_Dog> but im on root
[05:20] <Your_Dog> lol
[05:21] <kevinfish> how do I fix this?  http://pastebin.com/wRnuaTkz
[05:21] <metaspike> hmm maybe just "apt-get install" would have been less slegehammerish
[05:23] <Your_Dog> can't, it tells me that package lists or status faile could not be parsed or open
[05:23] <Bashing-om> kevinfish: "http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring/main" raring is End_Of_Life. Disable the repository. and now what results -> sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get upgrade <- ?
[05:24] <metaspike> Your_Dog, apt-get clean
[05:25] <metaspike> or sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf
[05:25] <metaspike> erm. rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf
[05:25] <Your_Dog> ok we seem have the problem
[05:25] <Your_Dog> both gives me errors
[05:26] <Your_Dog> but the latter, tells me in detail that we can do it because its read-only file system
[05:26] <Your_Dog> can't*
[05:26] <Beldar> metaspike, click your heels, this ain't kansas anymore.
[05:26] <Your_Dog> lol
[05:27] <Bashing-om> kevinfish: Are you in fact running the 13.04 ( raring) release ?
[05:30] <metaspike> Your_Dog, mount -o remount,rw / , is supposed to fix that ... hmmm
[05:30] <Your_Dog> i know which is wierd
[05:31] <Your_Dog> ill try this, restart computer and redo those commands :D
[05:31] <metaspike> nah
[05:32] <metaspike> Your_Dog, sudo su
[05:33] <metaspike> mount -o remount,rw / !
[05:33] <metaspike> ignore the !
[05:33] <metaspike> more like... sudo su -
[05:33] <Your_Dog> ok now its back on track after apt-get install
[05:35] <metaspike> choice... i often think linux systems should have boot mode just for dist-upgrade
[05:35] <metaspike> if you want to try upgrading from console try "apt-get dist-upgrade"
[05:35] <metaspike> anyway gtg
[05:36] <Your_Dog> alright
[05:36] <Your_Dog> ty
[05:37] <metaspike> np
[05:37] <Your_Dog> well atm everything is fine so i guess later it would be back to normal
[05:37] <Your_Dog> its just that its doing the same processes on console instead of the updater
[05:38] <Bashing-om> metaspike: Your_Dog //If I may remind yall to check the source.list .. as the old one no longer exists for the software repository .
[05:38] <metaspike> good point
[05:39] <metaspike> make sure your sources make sense for a d-u, and maybe do it from "recovery mode with networking" to be safe
[05:39] <Your_Dog> ok will check
[05:40] <Your_Dog> well from what i see
[05:40] <Your_Dog> the sources it uses are from 14.04
[05:43] <kostodo> I need to create 2 users who will be able to fully manage files inside /var/www
[05:43] <kostodo> Whats the best way of going about that
[05:43] <Bashing-om> Your_Dog: metaspike :: check /etc/apt/sources.list.d directoty also .
[05:43] <kostodo> Both users will be web developers who will have to upload files there, delete them, change, edit, etc.
[05:44] <Beldar>  Your_Dog this command will list all sources. grep -vr "^#" /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/}
[05:45] <Your_Dog> well atm
[05:45] <Your_Dog> i cant do anything
[05:45] <Your_Dog> aside to wait for apt-get install to finish
[05:46] <metaspike> it takes longer if you watch the kettle boil
[05:46] <Your_Dog> yeah sure does
[05:46]  * Beldar imagines Zippy the Pinhead watching the dryer spin
[05:47] <metaspike> kostodo, the BEST way would be to have /var/www on a seperate partition
[05:47] <metaspike> and mount those with proper access in fstab
[05:49] <metaspike> then make that the root dir of their access channels
[05:49] <kostodo> metaspike: Its not so much security that I’m concerned with. Its more that I want two different users to be able to seamlessly work on the files together
[05:49] <kostodo> metaspike: in the past often end up with permission errors
[05:50] <kostodo> if one user made files the other couldnt access them
[05:51] <punkgeek> any body can help me how to set domain dns on apache?
[05:52] <metaspike> besides basic file change notifications from the IDE itself, i don't know anyway around that, besides a proper svn or git setup
[05:53] <svetlana> punkgeek, what's your question? there is #httpd, but they require you to register with nickserv to speak.

[06:53] <cazalla> Beldar, thanks, i'll take a look through it and no, i will try guest account and see if same thing occurs
[06:55] <Beldar> cazalla, You can even make another user as a standard no sudo or an admin with sudo.
[06:55] <Beldar> just as a test all this is.
[07:00] <santo> I'm running Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 on a new machine with 8GB of RAM, and it seems to be locking up periodically and nothing is in syslog file. I've installed Nagios and have been watching the graphs, and it looks like memory is going high from 7% to 72% in just a span of 10 mins. Only node process are running on server. In top I found all process are running very normal memory consumption. Even after stopping node process. Memory remains
[07:04] <Beldar> cazalla, I found this. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/razer
[07:05] <Beldar> this http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTU4NTQ
[07:06] <Beldar> cazalla, Might be worth you just looking at this google search. https://www.google.com/search?q=Razer+DeathAdder+linux&btnG=Search&hl=en&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&gbv=1
[07:08] <Beldar> cazalla, lots on askubuntu http://askubuntu.com/search?q=Razer+DeathAdder
[07:10] <Beldar> santo, Full server, you must X right for Nagios?
[07:14] <Meerkat> https://login.launchpad.net/ Can I login with my old launchpad account here?
[07:17] <excalibr> I just noticed that all alert sounds in Sound applet have disappeared, leaving only the default one. I dont know if Ive unknowingly deleted all them all or 14.04 doesnt ship extra alert sounds.
[07:17] <excalibr> Meerkat, just try it
[07:21] <tiny> After a painful upgrade from 10.10 Maverick to 11.04 natty laptop just powers off at booting OS.
[07:21] <tiny> How do I get some verbosity from bootloader?
[07:22] <tiny> I also tried with fresh install of 14.04 LTS but nothing shows up after DVD "boots" ... blank screen
[07:23] <tiny> DVD works on other laptop
[07:23] <Beldar> tiny, Technically only 12.04 and 14.04 are supported any other is not calling the ubuntu repos
[07:24] <tiny> Beldar: yes, I used old-releases.ubuntu.com repo
[07:24] <Beldar> tiny, Did you check the 14.04's sum and or try a nomodeset boot?
[07:24] <tiny> anyway ... it's weird that laptop just shuts off after BIOS handles it to grub/OS
[07:25] <tiny> Beldar: DVD works on another laptop, hmm nomodeset, that could be the cause
[07:25] <Beldar> tiny, old-releases do not have the updates
[07:26] <tiny> Beldar: yes, I was trying to avoid fresh install... since 10.10 wasn't supported and the only way to get to latest releases is trough 11.04 -> 11.10 ... current
[07:26] <tiny> anyway ... how do I set nomodeset?
[07:26] <tiny> /etc/grub.d/...
[07:26] <tiny> ?
[07:27] <Beldar> tiny, Sure, what is the gaphic hardware and have you looked on the web with any of the releases and otyher hardware or computer model?
[07:27] <Beldar> !nomodeset | tiny
[07:28] <Beldar> tiny, is the install grub legacy or grub 2
[07:28] <neo1691> I want to swap my caps key with esc. I have modified my /etc/default/keyboard accordingly and then using dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration, I am able to swap the keys correctly. only problem is that the changes are lost on a reboot. Any help
[07:29] <tiny> Beldar: I think it's grub2, stuff is stored in /etc/grub.d/ (I hate grub btw, it became an uncontrollable monster)
[07:29] <tiny> I use isolinux on mine
[07:30] <Beldar> tiny, grub is simple and  /etc/grub.d/ is not where you mess with it.
[07:30] <tiny> grub is everything but simple ... who want's to play with configuration of bootloader? It should just load the OS and that's it.
[07:31] <eeee> neo1691: just use xmodmap and set it in ~/.profile
[07:31] <tiny> time is precious
[07:31] <tiny> Beldar: anyway, thanks I will look into setting that option
[07:31] <Beldar> tiny, your preaching yet have no working OS.
[07:31] <neo1691> eeee: ok, I am using bspwm so the autostart file should also work, I guess
[07:31] <Beldar> may have been a simple nomodeset on 14.04
[07:31] <tiny> Beldar: I have couple hounder working Linux OSes, thank you
[07:31] <Beldar> and driver installs
[07:32] <tiny> houndred*
[07:32] <tiny> so how do you set nomodeset on live DVD? :)
[07:32] <Beldar> welcome to the club. ;)
[07:32] <Beldar> read the link
[07:32] <tiny> ok, ok
[07:32] <eeee> neo1691: i guess, if it doesn't the command is  xmodmap -e "keycode 66=Escape"
[07:33] <tiny> link says "If you boot ubuntu from a livecd (or USB stick), right after the bios splash screen you will get a purple screen with a keyboard logo at the bottom:"
[07:33] <tiny> I get no such thing
[07:33] <Guido1> hello, I want to buy a switch and a ethernet PCI card. is there a side where i can compare companyes? (Which company makes better switches etc.)
[07:33] <Guido1> (i want to buy a gigabit PCI ethernet card and a switch, but don't have a lot of money. I want that it is relyable and works several years. So which brand would be good? Maybe TP-link? I also have no idea what the advantage is of a managed switch.)
[07:33] <Guido1> 09:17:47 - U kunt geen berichten sturen naar ##hardware.
[07:34] <Beldar> tiny, Do you get the try ubuntu install or memory check options
[07:34] <tiny> nope
[07:34] <Beldar> that is what you should see with a disc boot
[07:35] <tiny> I know, but I don't even get the chance to setup grub options
[07:35] <Beldar> some usb loaders bypass that gui
[07:37] <tiny> Beldar: any key combo that stops booting process and displays grub in text mode?
[07:37] <Beldar> tiny, On an install or live?
[07:38] <tiny> 14.04 LTS install
[07:38] <Beldar> tiny, shift
[07:38] <tiny> btw, isn't install=live?
[07:38] <tiny> hmm, tried shift already i believe ...
[07:38]  * tiny tries again
[07:38] <Beldar> read the question
[07:39] <Beldar> or or or or
[07:39] <nrdb2> I am trying to get heartbeat etc. going ... unsuccessfully :-( ... The initial config I am using is at http://pastebin.com/EdUEEj8q ... can anyone tell me why this isn't working ... I believe it should say the nodes are online.
[07:50] <cazalla> Beldar, ty for the leads
[07:50] <Beldar> cazalla, No prob.
[07:51] <jnhghy> I've made some bad things with my apt sources and now I can't seem to be able to install "default" software like lynx my sources seem to be lost, any idea how I can go back to the default ubuntu 12.04 sources?
[07:52] <tiny> Beldar: thanks for help, I somehow got trough to booting in safe mode from HD. I couldn't boot from LTS DVD though even if I pressed shift key. It just threw me into HD boot...
[07:53] <tiny> anyway ... I'm upgrading atm... to oneiric
[07:53] <Beldar> tiny, cool, might just need graphic drivers a udate/upgrade
[07:53] <ddv> nrdb2: read the logs
[07:53] <Beldar> or update/upgrade*
[08:03] <Beldar> jnhghy, This works ave what you have then use this to make a new one. Any changes to sources.list.d ? http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[08:03] <Beldar> save*
[08:07] <terminator> what is the channel for netware os?

[08:09] <Raboo> hi
[08:09] <Isvara> I just installed Xubuntu 14.04 to a SanDisk SSD. I'm trying to scp across some DVD images, and performance drops by about 90% after a few megabyte. Writes in general are slow, slow, slow.
[08:10] <Isvara> I've run fstrim, and I've added discard in my fstab. Neither of those have helped.
[08:10] <Raboo> I have a server that hangs randomly, I've installed linux-crashdump and kexec_crash is loaded. But when my machine hangs i got no dump in /var/crash
[08:11] <Raboo> what is my next step?
[08:11] <Isvara> scp has gone from 60MB/s to 4MB/s :-/
[08:11] <jasabella>  /last mtrr
[08:11] <jasabella> er
[08:12] <Raboo> Isvara maybe it's an network issue or iptables issue
[08:12] <Raboo> have you done a local copy to that ssd to see if it drops when files doesn't go thru network
[08:13] <trijntje> Isvara: try dd if=/dev/zero of=empty_file bs=1M count=10240, that will create an empty file 10GB in size, how long does that take?
[08:14] <Isvara> It's all writes. I'm using that as an example because the files are big enough for it to be dramatic (and it happens to show the transfer speed.)
[08:14] <jasabella> hi
[08:15] <jasabella> how do i 'fix' my mtrr?
[08:15] <Isvara> trijntje: That would take all night! So far up to 114MB...
[08:16] <Isvara> 200MB
[08:17] <tiny> Isvara: you should use "conv=fdatasync" or "oflag=dsync " with that dd command to ensure syncing to disk before dd(1) returns.
[08:17] <trijntje> Isvara: that is slow, but I don't know what could be the issue. Just let the command run so you have a good measurement, if you mention scp everybody is gonna think its because of the network ;)
[08:18] <tiny> I'd also use bigger block size ...
[08:18] <Isvara> I'm pretty sure this is specifically an SSD issue. Reads are as fast as you'd expect.
[08:18] <tiny> Isvara: so have you ran the dd command?
[08:19] <Isvara> tiny: I did. It's about at about 500MB so far.
[08:20] <tiny> I see. That's _slow_!
[08:21] <tdm4> hi.. all my 10.04 machines upgraded libc to 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14 and now lots of apps are breaking. Including apt-get
[08:21] <tdm4> anyone know about this?
[08:21] <tdm4> or how to fix?
[08:22] <tdm4> Getting: *** glibc detected *** /usr/lib/apt/methods/http: munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer: ...
[08:25] <Isvara> tiny: Actually, there's a bunch of nastiness in dmesg too: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7959215/
[08:26] <Isvara> Am I reading that right? Is it actually using PIO?
[08:30] <m_> quit
[08:34] <zetheroo1> is there something like htop for network traffic?
[08:35] <Isvara> zetheroo1: There's ntop
[08:35] <tdm4> guys: libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.14 is totally and absolutely BROKEN
[08:36] <tdm4> I had to downgrade to libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13 to fix my old 10.04 machines
[08:36] <six86> Hello. Is there a way to drop to a console or something while preseed late_command is running? It hangs somewhere but i can't see where
[08:36] <hateball> zetheroo1: there's also nethogs
[08:37] <Isvara> zetheroo1: Actually, I think iptraf is the one I used to use.
[08:37] <tiny> Isvara: looks like it yes, SSD on PATA channel
[08:38] <Isvara> tiny: hdparm -i says it's using udma1, though.

[08:39] <unopaste> tiny you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted

[08:41] <tiny> Isvara: PATA SSD?
[08:42] <Isvara> tiny: No, SATA
[08:43] <tiny> Isvara: connect it to other SATA channel 1-4
[08:43] <tiny> and try again
[08:44] <Isvara> Yeah, I think I'll dig out another cable, too.
[08:46] <nrdb2> I am trying to get heartbeat etc. going ... unsuccessfully :-( ... The initial config I am using is at http://pastebin.com/EdUEEj8q ... can anyone tell me why this isn't working ... I believe it should say the nodes are online... is that true?  .... syslog is ... http://pastebin.com/EdUEEj8q .... can anyone help
[08:51] <tiny> nrdb2: clustering is a big topic :)  afaik heartbeat is/will be obsolete
[08:53] <nrdb2> tiny, do you have a reference, I am tying to setup IP fallover.  all links I have found use heartbeat.
[08:54] <tiny> nrdb2: yes I do, it also uses heartbeat. I was pointed to a very good howto. There's also a channel on freenode. Can't remember though. Here's a link: https://alteeve.ca/w/AN!Cluster_Tutorial_2
[08:56] <tdm4> what is the name of the UBuntu devs channel?
[08:56] <tdm4> I want to tell them about libc6 being completely broken
[08:56] <acerimmer> !dev|tdm4,
[08:56] <acerimmer> tdm4, #ubuntu-dev iirc but they'll likely direct you to file a bug
[08:57] <tdm4> trying to remember if I still have a launchpad account
[09:00] <Isvara> tiny: I changed port and cable a couple of times and it seems to be working now.
[09:01] <tiny> Isvara: great, looks like ata ports 5,6 are configured as parallel or something like that.
[09:02] <Isvara> tiny: That'd be an entirely different connector and cable, though. I'm hoping it was just the cables. They're easiest to replace.
[09:03] <tiny> wow, upgrade continues: maverick -> natty -> oneiric -> precise
[09:03] <tiny> If I end up with a working system I'll write a blog :)
[09:04] <tiny> Father in law uses it. I must prove myself worthy :)
[09:10] <andybrine> Morning Everyone
[09:10] <acerimmer> andybrine, sez u.  tis dinner time here in Beijing.  Greetings anyway.  ask your questions.
[09:10] <andybrine> Greetings
[09:10] <andybrine> :)
[09:11] <andybrine> I have a quick question. I have installed gnome 3 on ubuntu and have gone back to unity and the desktop wallpaper is not working
[09:12] <andybrine> does anyone know what would be causing that?
[09:13] <acerimmer> andybrine, probably need to reconfigure your unity wallpaper settings
[09:14] <andybrine> acerimmer, what do I need to do to reconfigure? When I try to change it, its not working
[09:14] <tdm4> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/1352504
[09:14] <tdm4> ahh somoene else reported it
[09:14] <tdm4> and yeah we run nscd because of LDAP auth.. ah well
[09:15] <tdm4> downgrading libc fixed it :)
[09:15] <acerimmer> andybrine, I'm in UbuntuStudio so ... different arrangement of toys.  Ask again in channel.
[09:15] <andybrine> ok, thanks tdm4
[09:15] <andybrine> no problem, acerimmer. Thanks!
[09:21] <nishantjr_> Hi, Any idea how I can turn off auto-gain on the mic?
[09:22] <nishantjr_> Hi, Any idea how I can turn off auto-gain on the mic?
[09:24] <slitux___> nishantjr: do you have alsamixer ?
[09:27] <dmatt> HI, any idea why simple command added into rc.local does not execute on startup?
[09:28] <somsip> dm what is the command?
[09:28] <somsip> dmatt: ^^^
[09:28] <dmatt> echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio
[09:29] <nishantjr_> @slitux___ Yes, but when I change the setting there nothing happens in the pulseaudio verbose logs
[09:29] <Sneaksafe> probably a nub question, but my QBit keeps closing automatically after 5 mins of being open any ideas why?
[09:30] <slitux___> @nishantjr: did you change both "Mic" and "Mic Boost" settings ?
[09:30] <dmatt> somsip: hm, I was under impression rc.local is executed by root
[09:31] <somsip> dmatt: same here
[09:31] <nishantjr_> @slitux___: This sound card only has PCM, Mic and "Auto Gain Control"
[09:32] <nishantjr_> @slitux___: and the AGC does nothing in the logs.
[09:33] <dmatt> somsip: it fails if run manually under normal user, works if run manually under root, does nothing during boot
[09:33] <somsip> dmatt: does it exit 0?
[09:33] <slitux___> @nishantjr: if you press F6, you can select another card, this may help
[09:33] <somsip> dmatt: does rc.local end with a "exit 0" command?
[09:34] <dmatt> somsip: how to test it? rc.local is ended with exit 0 and is executable
[09:34] <somsip> dmatt: sh -e I believe, but must AFK. Sorry I couldn't help
[09:34] <nishantjr_> @slitux___:  yeah, but thats the card I want to change.
[09:35] <dmatt> somsip: thanks
[09:36] <slitux___> @nishantjr: if you press F3/F4/F5, may be you could see "Mic Boost"
[09:39] <nishantjr_> @slitux___: yeah, but not on the card I'm interested in.
[09:41] <nishantjr_> @slitux___:  my system configuration is a bit wierd, so might be related to that. Thanks for your time though.
[09:42] <slitux___> @nishantjr: how do you know it is "auto-gained" ?
[09:43] <nishantjr_> @slitux___: The mic volume increases on  it's own
[09:46] <APV> Need some help. My fan stopped changing speed, now it constantly runs on the slowest one, even when cpu is near critical temperature. It is not dusty, I clean it about every one or two months, nor it is noisy, nor it has any problems starting up.
[09:46] <cristian_c> Hi
[09:46] <APV> Hello.
[09:47] <slitux___> @nishantjr: if you change the "Mic" param and set it to "Item: Mic [dB gain: 0,00]" (for me, the displayed value is 56), does it change something ?
[09:47] <cristian_c> I couldn't mount the micro sd card, I had got error
[09:47] <cristian_c> I've typed sudo fsck.msdos -aw /dev/sdc1
[09:47] <cristian_c> now I can mount the micro-sd card, but folders and files are empty and have got strange names
[09:47] <cristian_c> what can I do?
[09:48] <cristian_c> Any ideas?
[09:48] <APV> Can you try mounting it on different machine\OS?
[09:49] <cristian_c> APV, I can try
[09:49] <Sneaksafe> does anyone have any clues as to why my qbit keeps closing?
[09:51] <APV> cristian_c, I had similar problem, nothing helped, but it was fixed after I mounted it on win7 and it asked to check for problems, it found something and fixed it. Not the very unix-ey way, but, whatever helps.
[09:52] <slitux___> @cristian_c: can you open gparted and check all the partitions in your card?
[09:57] <cristian_c> APV, I've tried now with an other machine
[09:57] <cristian_c> APV, micro sd is not mounted also
[09:57] <cristian_c> :O
[09:57] <cristian_c> different behaviour
[09:57] <cristian_c> than on this machine
[09:58] <cristian_c> APV, at this moment, I've not win 7 available :(
[09:58] <cristian_c> *I've not got
[09:59] <cristian_c> slitux___, on this machine?
[09:59] <slitux___> @cristian_c: with any system where you have gparted installed
[10:00] <cristian_c> slitux___, now , micro sd card is not mounted on this machine anymore
[10:00] <cristian_c> :OOO
[10:01] <cristian_c> incredible!
[10:01] <cristian_c> I don't understand :(
[10:01] <slitux___> ?
[10:02] <cristian_c> some minutes ago, it was mounted on this machine, then I've connected it to another machine, now it's not mounted to this machine anymore
[10:02] <cristian_c> :(
[10:02] <slitux___> hm, can you still mount it on another machine?
[10:02] <cristian_c> Errore di input/output durante la lettura su /dev/sdc
[10:02] <cristian_c> I translate

[10:03] <cristian_c> slitux___, opening gparted
[10:03] <slitux___> you get this error while opening gparted ?
[10:04] <cristian_c> slitux___, yeah
[10:05] <slitux___> can you do "head /dev/sdc" without errors ?
[10:08] <Lope> how can I mount an encrypted home dir manually?
[10:08] <APV> :( google knows nothing about cooling fans that can't change spin speed.
[10:14] <kevin_> hi everyone !
[10:14] <cristian_c> slitux___, I can try
[10:15] <slitux___> and ?
[10:15] <cristian_c> APV, have you tried pwmconfig?
[10:15] <cristian_c> slitux___, a moment, sorry
[10:16] <cristian_c> APV, but I think it's dangerous
[10:16] <APV> cristian_c, I trien the lm-sensors, but they can not find any sensors on my cooling fans. Nor win7 software could.
[10:16] <tiny> app that will setup sources.list with fastest mirror?
[10:17] <cristian_c> slitux___, head: errore leggendo "/dev/sdc": Errore di input/output
[10:17] <cristian_c> I translate
[10:17] <MHABIBI66_> hi. I want to use PyDrive(google drive api for python). I installed that with pip install PyDrive. But when I try to run a code, I get this error:No module named pydrive.auth
[10:17] <cristian_c> slitux___, head: error reading "/dev/sdc": input/output error
[10:18] <cristian_c> APV, I talk about pwmconfig
[10:18] <APV> cristian_c, reading about it atm.
[10:18] <tiny> loking for a shell app that will setup sources.list with fastest mirrors?
[10:18] <kevin_> Can someone help me ? I want to know how to check if a command-line management software package is working ?
[10:19] <cfhowlett> kevin_, apt-cache show packagename        will give valuable info
[10:19] <cristian_c> APV, ok
[10:19] <APV> /usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed
[10:19] <cristian_c> lol
[10:20] <APV> ?
[10:20] <cristian_c> APV, but I've not understood the problem
[10:20] <cristian_c> do you adjust the fan speed?
[10:20] <cristian_c> *do you want to
[10:20] <tiny> kevin_: apt-get update
[10:21] <APV> At one moment cooling fans stopped to automatically increase speed when cpu gets hot.  Celsius.
[10:22] <cristian_c> sorry
[10:22] <cristian_c> APV, same thing with windows?
[10:23] <APV> I have no windows atm.
[10:23] <cristian_c> APV, I think it's an hardware problem, Maybe you should clean fan and heat sink
[10:24] <cristian_c> APV, lol, I too
[10:24] <cristian_c> (only xp)
[10:24] <kevin_> ok thanks @tiny
[10:25] <APV> The laptops are so hard to disassembly. I just clean with air pressure cleaner, it is effective enough, I think.
[10:25] <shambat> I have a python script that connects to a mysql server, today the script crashes when it tries to connection the the mysql server. I get a crashdump with the error: munmap_chunk() invalid pointer. The backtrace suggests it has something to do with /usr/lib/libmysqlclient_r.so.16 and /lib/libc.so.6 ... what could cause this unexpected crash?
[10:26] <cristian_c> APV, you are right, but you can go to a technician
[10:27] <cristian_c> but dust can be blocked between fan and heat sink
[10:27] <tiny> how do I setup gnome display manager and xorg from shell ... I'm on 12.04 LTS atm
[10:28] <APV> But then the fan would not spin at all, and now it spins as usual, no noise, but on minimal speed.
[10:29] <APV> If the fan would stop working, or started to make noise, or had problems starting up, then there would be no questions.
[10:30] <kippi> hey
[10:30] <kippi> I have Defaults:chris    !requiretty in sudoers however when I try to ssh I still getting a error saying ensure 'requiretty' is disabled
[10:31] <lkthomas> hey guys, for ecryptfs, does sig-cache.txt file is important to keep ?
[10:33] <kevin_> I encounter a few problems to install mysql server 5.6; apparently what I understand is that to finish installing the server it tries to start but the start does not work because there is an error. I need to finish the installation and then uninstalled for the configured database
[10:37] <atar> hi - I'm trying to install ubuntu 14.04 with encrypted disk and LVM parallel to a windows 7 install. I am stuck at initializing the lvm. How do I have to proceed?
[10:38] <trap_exit> what is the simplest way to test of my ubuntu (trapped inside virtual box) sound is being piped to my osx (host)
[10:40] <cristian_c> APV, ok
[10:40] <cristian_c> APV, it's strange, maybe you can try with an old ubuntu release
[10:40] <cristian_c> if there was a kernel bug
[10:40] <cristian_c> :)
[10:41] <cristian_c> *acpi, ecc...
[10:41] <cristian_c> *etc
[10:42] <Lope> I need to mount encrypted home dir on another PC. I followed this guide to doing it manually. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#Recovering_Your_Data_Manually but after I mounted it, I could see all the file/dir names but there were ? symbols all over the permissions and user ownership columns of ls -la. And I could not cat the files nor enter the directories.
[10:42] <APV> It crashed once on the loading screen, so it is probably not OS problem, the fans control is somewhere deeper. :) Checked BIOS, but nothing concerning fan there :(
[10:45] <Lope> Okay, nevermind. I used the noob automatic method and it worked!
[10:45] <topkek32juan> hi how make firefox really fast
[10:46] <topkek32juan> super fast
[10:46] <Lope> run your firefox profile inside a tmpfs
[10:46] <topkek32juan> i am using profile-sync-daemon
[10:46] <topkek32juan> how make faster
[10:47] <slartybartfast> not start it is fastest ever :-)
[10:47] <slartybartfast> just kidding sry
[10:49] <slitux___> hi, i have a problem with my firefox, sometimes, ff uses 100% of the CPU for about 20 seconds .
[10:49] <slartybartfast> plugins?
[10:49] <cfhowlett> !chromium|slitux___,
[10:50] <slitux___> but i want to use ff , (?)
[10:50] <cfhowlett> slitux___, disable plugins and test
[10:51] <slitux___> i already disabled them ...
[10:51] <slitux___> :(
[10:51] <atar> is it at all possible to install with LVM and crypto with 14.04? it seems the alternate (text) installer was removed
[10:52] <slitux___> the problem happends suddently, i read a page, and then, ...
[10:52] <cfhowlett> atar, for text based, look at the .mini iso
[10:53] <atar> cfhowlett: is this compatible with usb boot?
[10:53] <cfhowlett> !mini | atar yes, usb compliant
[10:54] <atar> awesome - thanks. i
[10:54] <atar> i'll try this
[10:55] <timkofu> hi guys
[10:55] <slitux___> hi tim
[10:55] <timkofu> im looking for an ubuntu 12.10 bind9.10 package?
[10:55] <timkofu> *12.04
[10:55] <timkofu> it has an ancient 9.8
[11:01] <ddv> timkofu: you should probably use a ppa then
[11:06] <evil_god> pacman -Syu
[11:07] <_2_copi1134> hi
[11:07] <_2_copi1134> :D
[11:07] <_2_copi1134> wm
[11:07] <_2_copi1134> und wehr bis du
[11:09] <cfhowlett> !de|_2_copi1134,
[11:12] <cristian_c> slitux____, any ideas?
[11:17] <slitux____> @cristian_c i was out, but if your card worked (not well) before and do'nt work now, it's strange
[11:17] <slitux____> :)
[11:21] <Lope> my home dir is already encrypted with ecryptfs. Can I use ecryptfs to encrypt /foo/bar also?
[11:22] <slitux____> @cristian_c: i think you should restart your system and unplug/plug the sd card
[11:22] <cristian_c> slitux____, no, my card did'nt work before
[11:22] <cristian_c> slitux____, before I could mount it, but
 now I can mount the micro-sd card, but folders and files are empty and have got strange names
[11:23] <slitux____> you can mount it with the system which gave you the "read error" ??
[11:23] <cristian_c> slitux____, no, when today I've tried the micro sd card on another machine , it couldn't be mounted
[11:24] <cristian_c> when I've connected it again to this machine, it count't be mounted anymore
[11:24] <Lope> Can a user only mount a single ecryptfs volume simultaneously? I'm trying to make a 2nd ecryptfs volume and it says "wrapped-passphrase file already exists, use --force to overwrite."?
[11:24] <slitux____> what is the filesysytem of the card ?
[11:24] <cristian_c> slitux____, yeah, but now I get these dmesg errors with both the two machines
[11:25] <slitux____> so, you can'nt mount it anymore ?
[11:25] <cristian_c> until today, it was mounted in this machine
[11:25] <kirkland> Lope: you might be able to get what you want out of http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/en/man1/mount.ecryptfs_private.1.html
[11:25] <cristian_c> slitux____, yeah, I can
[11:25] <kirkland> Lope: see the bit about ALIAS
[11:26] <cristian_c> slitux____, now I can't see the filesystem type
[11:26] <cristian_c> it can't be mounted
[11:26] <slitux____> cristian_c, and before, where you able to see the filesystem type?
[11:26] <cristian_c> yeah
[11:26] <cristian_c> slitux____, I could
[11:27] <cristian_c> slsorry
[11:27] <cristian_c> slitux____, sorry
[11:27] <slitux____> cristian_c, why?
[11:27] <cristian_c> slitux____, I could see the filesystem mounted everywhere
[11:28] <cristian_c> before
[11:28] <cristian_c> now, not anymore
[11:28] <slitux____> on both your 2 machine ?
[11:28] <slitux____> *machines
[11:28] <cristian_c> slitux____, I didn't try to mount it on another machine until today
[11:29] <slitux____> and now, (to sumarize), you can mount it with one machine, but can see the files names
[11:29] <cristian_c> slitux____, this test has created problems, so I can't mount it on this machine anymore
[11:29] <slitux____> which test?
[11:29] <cristian_c> slitux____, no, I could do this until today
[11:29] <cristian_c> slitux____, the test APV suggested me
[11:30] <slitux____> i didn't saw it
[11:30] <cristian_c> slitux____, connecting the micro-sd card to another machine (different by this)
[11:30] <cristian_c> !log
[11:31] <slitux____> cristian_c: can you use your card with another device (phone, camera,...)
[11:32] <cristian_c> APV	Can you try mounting it on different machine\OS?	09:48
[11:32] <cristian_c> slitux____, here
[11:32] <slitux____> ok
[11:32] <cristian_c> slitux____, I can ytry
[11:32] <cristian_c> *try
[11:32] <cristian_c> a moment, sorry
[11:33] <slitux____> is it a new card or do you have a lot of file in it ?
[11:33] <slitux____> *files
[11:34] <cristian_c> slitux____, I did a backup with dd
[11:34] <cristian_c> slitux____, before I tried the fsck command
[11:34] <JokerMentalist> salut
[11:34] <gyaresu> Who would be so kind as to link me to the Ubuntu 12 Skype fix?
[11:35] <gyaresu> and hi
[11:35] <slitux____> salut
[11:35] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've tried now the card on my phone
[11:35] <cristian_c> slitux____, I don't get errors but I don't see it mounted
[11:35] <cristian_c> on the phone
[11:36] <slitux____> cristian_c: did the the dd command overwrotte the filesystem?
[11:36] <cristian_c> slitux____, no, I did the dd command to backup the sd card to my machine
[11:36] <cristian_c> before executing fsck to my card
[11:37] <cristian_c> to get a safe copy
[11:37] <slitux____> when did you (the backup) ?
[11:37] <slitux____> (sorry for my english)
[11:38] <cristian_c> slitux____, no problem, I don't speak english too :D
[11:39] <slitux____> :)
[11:39] <cristian_c> slitux____, I did the dd backup time ago
[11:39] <slitux____> long time ago?
[11:39] <cristian_c> slitux____, i never solved the problem
[11:39] <cristian_c> slI dont' remember honestly
[11:39] <cristian_c> why this question?
[11:40] <slitux____> are you ready to do the reverse backup?
[11:40] <cristian_c> slitux____, I can try to mount it to my photo camera
[11:40] <cristian_c> via sd adapter
[11:40] <cristian_c> slitux____, I don't know how to do 'reverse backup'
[11:40] <cristian_c> sorry
[11:40] <cristian_c> :)
[11:41] <cristian_c> slitux____, but there is the problem, first
[11:41] <cristian_c> I must resume the micro sd card
[11:41] <cristian_c> or formatting
[11:41] <cristian_c> it's the same
[11:41] <cristian_c> :)
[11:41] <slitux____> is it envisageable to format the card ?
[11:42] <cristian_c> slitux____, I think yes, because I own the dd backup
[11:42] <cristian_c> :)
[11:43] <cristian_c> but I don't know how repair the card or reverse backup
[11:43] <cristian_c> *how to
[11:43] <slitux____> by 'reverse backup' , i mean 'to put the backup on your card'
[11:44] <slitux____> what was the result with your camera?
[11:46] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've tried now with the camera
[11:46] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've taken a photo with the card inserted in
[11:47] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've extracted the sd adapter card from the camera
[11:47] <slitux____> can you format the card with your camera ?
[11:47] <cristian_c> slitux____, i've  connected it to my machine and now it's mounted
[11:47] <cristian_c> :O
[11:47] <cristian_c> slitux____, I can try
[11:47] <cristian_c> but
[11:48] <slitux____> do you need it now ?
[11:48] <slitux____> (to format)
 now I can mount the micro-sd card, but folders and files are empty and have got strange names
[11:48] <cristian_c> slitux____, the previus problem
[11:48] <cristian_c> is appeared again, it's now mounted again, but with the same problem
[11:48] <samlev> morning/evening/whichever applies
[11:48] <slitux____> so, you can try to format with your camera,
[11:48] <rayius> Hi I am noob to ubuntu, can anyone help me out? I got a ridiculous wifi connection speed
[11:49] <ret> Did anybody used TVS RP-3160 thermal printer with ubunut?
[11:49] <cristian_c> slitux____, I think I can format it with ubuntu
[11:49] <cristian_c> slitux____, now, it's mounted
[11:49] <cristian_c> slitux____, after I connected to the camera
[11:49] <slitux____> good idea, but why didnt you do it befoer?
[11:49] <slitux____> *before
[11:49] <cristian_c> I've not thought
[11:50] <cristian_c> slitux____, now, i think i can open it in gparted
[11:50] <slitux____> :)
[11:50] <slitux____> what is the filesystem (just to know)
[11:50] <cristian_c> slitux____, now, gparted has mounted it
[11:50] <cristian_c> fat32
[11:50] <slitux____> ok
[11:51] <cristian_c> it has a strange label
[11:51] <cristian_c> :O
[11:51] <slitux____> which label ?
[11:51] <samlev> anyone had much experience debugging sound issues on laptops?
[11:51] <cristian_c> '_&x!'
[11:51] <cristian_c> :O
[11:51] <cristian_c> in the label column
[11:51] <rayius> Hi I am noob to ubuntu, can anyone help me out? I got a ridiculous wifi connection speed
[11:51] <rayius> :(
[11:51] <cristian_c> slitux____, gparted has many columns
[11:51] <cristian_c> for each line
[11:51] <samlev> rayius: how do you mean?
[11:52] <rayius> i seem to have low wifi speed
[11:52] <rayius> compared to windows
[11:52] <slitux____> @cristian_c: think your card has crashed
[11:52] <ObrienDave> rayius, rebooted router and modem lately?
[11:52] <cristian_c> slitux____, now , can I format it correctly?
[11:52] <cristian_c> slitux____, which parameters, I've to use?
[11:52] <rayius> Yes...
[11:52] <cristian_c> have I to redoing the partition table?
[11:53] <cristian_c> *make again
[11:53] <rayius> I tried a few fix on the ubuntu forum still the same...
[11:53] <slitux____> i opened gparred to see the possibilities
[11:53] <slitux____> ...
[11:53] <cristian_c> slitux____, ok
[11:54] <slitux____> do you have 1 or more partitions ?
[11:54] <cristian_c> slitux____, /dev/sdb1 only
[11:54] <cristian_c> strange, sdb instead of sdc :O
[11:54] <AceKing> rayius: what wifi card do you have?
[11:55] <rayius> it's a lappy..
[11:55] <slitux____> right click on the partition -> format -> fat32
[11:55] <cristian_c> ok, I unmount it from gparted
[11:55] <AceKing> rayius: I know. But do you know what wifi card is in it?
[11:55] <cristian_c> *by
[11:56] <cristian_c> ufff, gparted is freezed
[11:56] <rayius> is there a cmd i can type to do so? *sorry
[11:56] <slitux____> wait a bit ...
[11:57] <AceKing> rayius: open a terminal and run lspci
[11:57] <cristian_c> 'searching /dev/sdb partitions' in the gparted status bar
[11:57] <cristian_c> it's freezed
[11:57] <slitux____> after format ?
[11:57] <cristian_c> *frozen
[11:57] <cristian_c> slitux____, no, while unmounting
[11:58] <cristian_c> slitux____, nothing changes, always frozen
[11:59] <cristian_c> it's strange
[11:59] <slitux____> you should force gParted to close ...
[11:59] <cristian_c> ok
[11:59] <cristian_c> closed
[11:59] <slitux____> and restart it again, to see
[11:59] <cristian_c> it's closed immediately :O
[11:59] <cristian_c> ok
[11:59] <m1dnight_> Should I upgrade my samba version on my 12.04 server? (im running 3.6.3) per the article on ars: http://arstechnica.com/security/2014/08/critical-code-execution-bug-in-samba-gives-attackers-superuser-powers/
[12:00] <cristian_c> slitux____, now, gparted is not opened anymore
[12:00] <cristian_c> ufff
[12:00] <slitux____> strange ...
[12:00] <cristian_c> I see gparted bin, etc in task manager
[12:00] <slitux____> what is the result of 'head /dev/sdb' ?
[12:01] <cristian_c> slitux____, I think it's not closed correctly
[12:01] <bipul> hello i am unable to connect with internet via wifi , I am able to access router. I am using a ubuntu 14.04
[12:01] <slitux____> ok, you should close/kill it
[12:01] <cristian_c> slitux____, with head command, I get many strange symbols in the terminal
[12:01] <cristian_c> :O
[12:02] <slitux____> that very good
[12:02] <slitux____> that mean your card is accessible
[12:02] <slitux____> (if your card is /dev/sdb)
[12:03] <cristian_c> I've killed gpartedbin
[12:03] <bipul> Hello, I am not able to connect with my internet via wifi connetion, in my ubuntu 14.04. I am able to connect with router but not internet. Please help.
[12:04] <slitux____> cristian_c, and now?
[12:04] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've done many tries
[12:04] <bipul> Hello, I am not able to connect with my internet via wifi connetion, in my ubuntu 14.04. I am able to connect with router but not internet. Please help.
[12:05] <cristian_c> (also disconnecting the card form machine)
[12:05] <cristian_c> slitux____, now, It's mounted in gparted
[12:05] <cristian_c> again
[12:05] <slitux____> you have tried to restart gparted ? but it dont works ?
[12:05] <slitux____> what is the mount point ?
[12:06] <cristian_c> slitux____, it's a very strange behaviour, when I try to unmount it with gparted, gparted freezes
[12:06] <cristian_c> :O
[12:06] <cristian_c> it's happened again
[12:06] <slitux____> do you know the mount point ?
[12:07] <cristian_c> slitux____, /media/cristian/FD4A-963B
[12:07] <slitux____> in your terminal: 'umount /media/cristian/FD4A-963B'
[12:07] <cristian_c> slitux____, no, I've solved disconnecting the card
[12:07] <cristian_c> slitux____, ok, I try to open again gparted
[12:08] <cristian_c> and the I try to unmount from terminal
[12:08] <slitux____> can you connect the card witout mounting it ?
[12:08] <cristian_c> *then
[12:08] <cristian_c> slitux____, i try
[12:09] <cristian_c> slitux____, If I connect the card, it's automatically mountede
[12:09] <cristian_c> *mounted
[12:09] <cristian_c> slitux____, I try a trick
[12:11] <imkite> If possible could someone please look at http://pastebin.com/tyKQp3uK and tell me what kind of DNS attack this is. This has been going on for almost a week thought whomever would have gotten bored but now I am second guessing myself lol
[12:12] <slitux____> i was in the garden for one minute, ... which trick ?
[12:12] <patates> how do I add a few folder to the excluded? "tar -cvpzf /bckp/bckp.tar.gz --exlude=/home"
[12:12] <cristian_c> I tried to open gparted and then from terminal the umount command
[12:13] <cristian_c> but the trick didn't work
[12:13] <patates> like --exclude=/home --exclude=/secondfld --exclude=/thidr
[12:13] <patates> ?
[12:13] <tuocuggino> !chat
[12:13] <cristian_c> slitux____, I don't know what to do for formatting
[12:14] <slitux____> so, to sumarize, you're not able to format it with gpartred, but may-be you should try with your camera :D
[12:14] <cristian_c> slitux____, ok
[12:14] <funkt> Hi there I recently did a hardware update and I restarted my desktop to find my screen display locked to 640 x 480 and no way of being able to access many windows in ubuntu because of the locked screen size could anyone help?
[12:15] <cristian_c> slitux____, now, I get on my camera: 'card not usable'
[12:15] <cristian_c> :(
[12:15] <slitux____> bu you where able to write a photo in it , no ??
[12:16] <cristian_c> slitux____, before, not now
[12:16] <cristian_c> now, when I insert the card into it, I get this message
[12:16] <funkt> I am using 12.04 Ubuntu LTS
[12:16] <slitux____> can you still acces the filesystem with your computer ?
[12:17] <cristian_c> slitux____, what filesystem?
[12:17] <cristian_c>  / ?
[12:17] <slitux____> can you acces the folders (with stranges name) on the card ?
[12:18] <cristian_c> slitux____, yeah, but they are empty
[12:18] <cristian_c> the folders
[12:18] <cristian_c> slitux____, and files too
[12:19] <cristian_c> :-/
[12:19] <slitux____> ok, and if you unmount the card with your file manager, (can you ?)
[12:19] <eeee> funkt: type xrandr in the terminal
[12:20] <cristian_c> slitux____, now, If I unmount the device from file manager, it disappears
[12:20] <cristian_c> from file manager
[12:20] <slitux____> now, open gpartred
[12:20] <cristian_c> ok
[12:20] <funkt> xrandr
[12:20] <funkt> I have tried that
[12:20] <funkt> and it sayes it is locked
[12:21] <cristian_c> gparted is not opening again
[12:21] <funkt> thanks eeee
[12:21] <cristian_c> I try to kill
[12:21] <eeee> funkt: what do you mean locked?
[12:21] <slitux____>

[12:21] <cristian_c> ok ,killed and opened again
[12:21] <eeee> yeah sure
[12:21] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've opened gparted
[12:22] <slitux____> does the card appears in gparred
[12:22] <cristian_c> slitux____, no
[12:22] <cristian_c> only sda
[12:22] <cristian_c> because it's not mounted
[12:23] <slitux____> but it sould apears, even if it's not mounted, because the card is connected
[12:23] <slitux____> *should
[12:23] <cristian_c> slitux____, no, if I open gparted and the card is not mounted, gparted doesn't show me it
[12:23] <cristian_c> it's normal
[12:23] <tiny> no it's not
[12:23] <cristian_c> lol
[12:24] <slitux____> and what does the 'head /dev/sdb' returns
[12:24] <slitux____> (stil witout mounting the card
[12:24] <cristian_c> it's always has been so, with any devices
[12:24] <tiny> also, 'fdisk -l' should show every "disk" connected
[12:24] <cristian_c> slI try head
[12:24] <cristian_c> slitux____, I try head
[12:24] <funkt> Hi there typing xrandr in the terminal says failed to get size of gamma for output defualt
[12:25] <cristian_c> head: impossibile aprire "/dev/sdb" per la lettura: Nessun supporto trovato
[12:25] <slitux____> ok,
[12:25] <cristian_c> I translate
[12:25] <funkt> screen:0 minimum 640 x 480, current 640 x 480
[12:25] <eeee> funkt: just typing xrandr alone ?
[12:25] <funkt> yes
[12:25] <eeee> what resolution do you want
[12:25] <cristian_c> head: unable opening  ... for reading: No device found
[12:25] <cristian_c> *s
[12:25] <slitux____> ok
[12:25] <funkt> well before the update I had a full size screen
[12:25] <tiny> cristian_c: paste "fdisk -l" somewhere
[12:25] <funkt> of over 1000 pixels
[12:25] <cristian_c> tiny, I try
[12:26] <eeee> funkt: do you remember exactly what it was ?
[12:26] <cristian_c> tiny, sudo fdisk -l returns only sda
[12:26] <cristian_c> entries
[12:26] <slitux____> thats strange, you could connect the card witout mounting it
[12:26] <funkt> If i could perhaps just get enough to be able to get to the detect displays button I may be able to correct it
[12:26] <tiny> cristian_c: there you go, what's the problem again?
[12:26] <funkt> what the update was?
[12:26] <eeee> no the screen resolution
[12:26] <funkt> Oh
[12:26] <cristian_c> tiny, slitux____ has suggested me to format the card
[12:26] <eeee> try this
[12:27] <funkt> erm No i'm afraid I dont
[12:27] <eeee> gtf 1366 768 60
[12:27] <eeee> type that in the terminal
[12:27] <tiny> cristian_c: you can't format the card if it's not detected by system. What type of card?
[12:27] <cristian_c> tiny, I know this
[12:27] <cristian_c> tiny, micro sd card
[12:27] <funkt> ok
[12:28] <funkt> got a bunch of data and numbers
[12:28] <tiny> cristian_c: sometimes there's a problem with card reader.
[12:28] <cristian_c> tiny, no
[12:28] <eeee> now type sudo xrandr --newmode "1366x768" <paste the numbers after _60.00" here>
[12:28] <slitux____> @tiny: but the card can be mounted
[12:28] <tiny> cristian_c: how do you plug in the card?
[12:28] <cristian_c> slitux____, yeah, but I can't unmount via gparted
[12:28] <tiny> how can it be mounted if fdisk doesn't show it?
[12:29] <cristian_c> gparted freezes
[12:29] <tiny> mount -a
[12:29] <tiny> show that
[12:29] <cristian_c> tiny, ok
[12:29] <slitux____> because when cristian unmount it, it siseapers
[12:29] <cristian_c> yeah
[12:29] <funkt> sorry which numbers do i paste?

[12:29] <eeee> funkt: paste the numbers after "1368x768_60.00" until +Vsync
[12:30] <eeee> funkt: when i type it here i get 85.86 1368 1440 ..
[12:30] <funkt> hmm Im sorry I don't understand
[12:30] <cristian_c> tiny, the fdisk output
[12:30] <eeee> funkt: paste here what you get when you type gtf 1366 768 60
[12:30] <tiny> cristian_c: that's the output of fdisk(1) and not mount(1)
[12:31] <cristian_c> tiny, I type mount, now
[12:31] <eeee> (paste it in the channel)
[12:31] <funkt> okay thank you!
[12:31] <cristian_c> tiny, sudo mount -a returns nothing :OOO
[12:32] <cristian_c> very strange

[12:32] <funkt> Hi there I had to log in as guest on the other computer but it is me!
[12:33] <funkt> guest91621
[12:33] <tiny> cristian_c: ok, so do: umount /media/cristian/FD4A-963B
[12:33] <funkt> I have pasted the output
[12:33] <cristian_c> tiny, done
[12:33] <eeee> funkt: ok, type sudo xrandr --newmode "1368x768" 85.86  1368 1440 1584 1800  768 769 772 795  -HSync +Vsync
[12:33] <tiny> cristian_c: so it's not mounted anymore?
[12:33] <cristian_c> not mounted, now
[12:33] <cristian_c> but present in file manager
[12:33] <tiny> cristian_c: ok, so what does fdisk -l show now?
[12:34] <cristian_c> tiny, as before
[12:34] <Guest91621> xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
[12:34] <cristian_c> tiny, pastebin?
[12:34] <funkt> That was the output
[12:34] <tiny> cristian_c: ok, make sense. Now, What's the problem? You can't access files on that card?
[12:34] <cristian_c> tiny, the problem it's very strange
[12:35] <cristian_c> tiny, the story: 1) a day i inserted the micro-sd card in an android device and I got errors
[12:35] <cristian_c> tiny, 2) whe
[12:35] <cristian_c> tiny, when I plugged to a pc, i had superblock error
[12:36] <eeee> funkt: try xrandr -s 800x600
[12:36] <eeee> funkt: does it change?
[12:36] <cristian_c> tiny, 3) I was suggested to use fsck
[12:36] <cristian_c> tiny, 4) I did a dd backup of the card to my pc
[12:36] <Guest91621> NO AND IT SAYS xrandr -s 800x600
[12:36] <cristian_c> tiny, 5) I executed the fsck
[12:36] <Guest91621> Size 800x600 not found in available modes
[12:37] <ObrienDave> latest drivers for your card?
[12:37] <funkt> thanks for all your help eeee
[12:37] <funkt> no change!
[12:38] <cristian_c> tiny, 6) then <cristian_c> now I can mount the micro-sd card, but folders and files are empty and have got strange names
[12:38] <cristian_c> tiny, now, I was suggested to format the card and do a reverse backup from dd
[12:39] <cristian_c> tiny, any ideas to format it?
[12:39] <funkt> Any more ideas eeee?
[12:39] <eeee> funkt: try xrandr --output default --gamma 1:1:1 --mode 1280x1024
[12:39] <tiny> cristian_c: hmm, a lot of variables, nothing specific there. If you did a dd(1) backup of card when it was already corrupted then it won't help.
[12:40] <tiny> cristian_c: it's easy to format it.
[12:40] <cristian_c> I think I must make the partition table again
[12:40] <tiny> cristian_c: first make sure you have a backup you can restore!
[12:40] <Guest91621> xrandr: cannot find mode 1280x102
[12:40] <cristian_c> tiny, a dd before executing the fsck
[12:40] <cristian_c> :)
[12:40] <cristian_c> tiny, not after
[12:40] <funkt> No mode eeee
[12:40] <tiny> cristian_c: do you know how to mount that dd image and extract data?
[12:41] <cristian_c> tiny, no, I don't know
[12:41] <tiny> heh
[12:41] <eeee> funkt: ok, try sudo xrandr --newmode --gamma 1:1:1 "1368x768" 85.86  1368 1440 1584 1800  768 769 772 795  -HSync +Vsync
 cristian_c: it's easy to format it.
[12:41] <cristian_c> i don't know how to format it correctly
[12:41] <tiny> do you care about the old data?
[12:41] <cristian_c> also
[12:41] <Guest91621> xrandr: unrecognized option '795'
[12:41] <Guest91621> Try 'xrandr --help' for more information.
[12:41] <eeee> sorry
[12:41] <Guest91621> THATS OKAY
[12:42] <Eldunar> hello is it possible to group up application in Xubuntu?
[12:42] <slitux____> but i think you can't format it when it is mounted
 do you care about the old data?
[12:42] <slitux____> have you suceed unmounting it ?
[12:42] <cristian_c> tiny, I've not understood
[12:42] <eeee> funkt: ok, try sudo xrandr --gamma 1:1:1 --newmode "1368x768" 85.86  1368 1440 1584 1800  768 769 772 795  -HSync +Vsync
[12:43] <tiny> cristian_c: what happened from the time you "backed up" with dd until the time you notice FS corruption?
[12:43] <Guest91621> xrandr: --gamma must be used after --output
[12:43] <Guest91621> Try 'xrandr --help' for more information.
[12:43] <cristian_c> slitux____, now, it's unmounted, but I don't think gparted can see it
[12:43] <cristian_c> if unmounted
[12:43] <tiny> cristian_c: no need to use gparted. Use fdisk.
[12:43] <eeee> funkt: ok, try sudo xrandr --newmode "1368x768" --gamma 1:1:1 85.86  1368 1440 1584 1800  768 769 772 795  -HSync +Vsync
[12:43] <eeee> maybe?
[12:43] <eeee> ill try here as well
[12:43] <cristian_c> tiny, I've excuted fsck command
[12:43] <cristian_c> *executed the fsck command
[12:44] <eeee> didn't work
[12:44] <Guest91621> sudo xrandr --newmode "1368x768" --gamma 1:1:1 85.86  1368 1440 1584 1800  768 769 772 795  -HSync +Vsync
[12:44] <Guest91621> Yeah
[12:44] <cristian_c> tiny, ok
[12:44] <tiny> cristian_c: yes but you say there are no files on card? Can you paste "ls -l"
[12:44] <Guest91621> clever stuff!
[12:44] <tiny> cristian_c: mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/somedir
[12:44] <Guest91621> nearly there maybe?
[12:44] <cristian_c> tiny, there are files and folders on the card, but they have strange names and they are empty
[12:45] <tiny> cristian_c: show us!
[12:45] <cristian_c> tiny, I think it's corrupted
[12:45] <cristian_c> tiny, ok
[12:45] <stangeland> hi, i have a directory of 12 very big files. How do i copy the first MB of each file into 12 new small files?
[12:45] <tiny> maybe you're just missing some locale(s)
[12:45] <cristian_c> I've mounted the card
[12:45] <cristian_c> else, I can't use ls
[12:46] <cristian_c> !paste
[12:47] <eeee> funkt: hold on
[12:47] <cristian_c> tiny, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7960851/
[12:47] <funkt> holding on!
 cristian_c: mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/somedir
[12:48] <tiny> cristian_c: ok, that looks bad.
[12:48] <tiny> cristian_c: ls -l please
[12:48] <cristian_c> tiny, ok
[12:49] <cristian_c> tiny, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7960873/
 cristian_c: mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/somedir
[12:49] <cristian_c> tiny, have I to try this?
[12:50] <tiny> cristian_c: no, you already mounted again didn't you?
[12:50] <cristian_c> ok
[12:50] <eeee> funkt: try without sudo
[12:50] <eeee> funkt: xrandr --newmode "1368x768" 85.86  1368 1440 1584 1800  768 769 772 795  -HSync +Vsync
[12:51] <cristian_c> tiny, now, there are two problems: 1) formatting the card, 2) do a reverse backup from dd file

[12:51] <funkt> eeee I've been muted for pasting too many lines
[12:52] <tiny> cristian_c:  no problems there if your backup is ok. Fsck didn't corrupt those files.
[12:52] <eeee> yeah it's ok, it's for 60seconds
[12:52] <tiny> cristian_c: something else caused it's corruption.
[12:52] <cristian_c> tiny, lol
[12:52] <cristian_c> tiny, these are appeared after fsck command
[12:52] <cristian_c> *appeared

[12:54] <marko_> is there any way to  upload videos to instagram from ubuntu?
[12:54] <tiny> cristian_c: did you do file system check while card was mounted? You _should not_ do that! That's probably the cause of corruption.
[12:54] <tiny> ok
[12:54] <cristian_c> tiny, <cristian_c> I've typed sudo fsck.msdos -aw /dev/sdc1
[12:54] <tiny> cristian_c: umount the blody card again and don't mount it!
[12:54] <Guest91621> bash: type: /etc/X11: not found

[13:10] <tiny> Marano: I had to manually edit sources.list though ... and change url to: old-repositories.ubuntu.com
[13:10] <cristian_c> tiny, from external disk to external sd card
[13:11] <tiny> cristian_c: yeah so?
[13:11] <Lynda22>  Here some videos. I hope you like them! http://bitly.com/1o8VFsz
[13:11] <cristian_c> tiny, I'll think it will be very slow
[13:11] <Marano> tiny: Are you still using Ubuntu 10.10?
[13:11] <cristian_c> *I think
[13:11] <eeee> funkt: type sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe
[13:11] <tiny> Marano: no, I've just upgraded to 14.04 LTS but I need to fix xorg
[13:11] <Marano> tiny: How much is your RAM?
[13:11] <tiny> cristian_c: just do it! USB disk is faster then microsd card
[13:12] <tiny> Marano: 2GB
[13:12] <cristian_c> tiny, I've typed beofre
[13:12] <brian_> eeee: sudo is /usr/bin/sudo
[13:12] <brian_> mv is /bin/mv
[13:12] <brian_> bash: type: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe.backup: not found
[13:12] <brian_> bash: type: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe: not found
[13:12] <cristian_c> *before
[13:12] <tiny> cristian_c: ?
[13:12] <cristian_c> tiny, I've typed it whenyou have told me
[13:12] <eeee> funkt: i think you wrote "type" again?
[13:12] <Marano> tiny: Oh wow, does Ubuntu operate fine on it?
[13:12] <tiny> cristian_c: ok, just wait now, it  might take a while.
[13:12] <cristian_c> and i'm waiting the end from some minutes
[13:12] <cristian_c> :)
[13:12] <Marano> tiny: I have 4GB ram and my computer hanged like everliving hell on Ubuntu 12.04.
[13:13] <cristian_c> tiny, I think much time
[13:13] <cristian_c> :(
[13:13] <tiny> Marano: I'm planing to use Gnome 2
[13:13] <Marano> tiny: That's a very, very bad choice.
[13:13] <cristian_c> I hope not hours
[13:13] <funkt> eeee: aploigies yes I did
[13:13] <funkt> all back I guess now eeee
[13:13] <tiny> Marano: why?
[13:13] <eeee> ok
[13:13] <Marano> tiny: I recommend that you should use Xfce instead, its very lightweight and beautiful at the same time.
[13:13] <tiny> Marano: I'm not setting it up for me.
[13:13] <eeee> funkt: dunno if this would work,
[13:13] <funkt> ok!
[13:14] <tiny> Marano: it's for my father in law. I use fluxbox on my machines.
[13:14] <eeee> hold on
[13:14] <funkt> ok!
[13:14] <Marano> tiny: Gnome will use around 800MB+ while Xfce will use just 120MB+, which path do you wish to choose?
[13:15] <tiny> Marano: yeah, I know. But I'm not going to convert a 60 year old.
[13:15] <cristian_c> lol
[13:15] <cristian_c> mega-split
[13:15] <tiny> Marano: yeah, I know. But I'm not going to convert a 60 year old.
[13:15] <eeee> funkt: can you right click on the desktop and press change background?
[13:15] <tiny> fluxbox is even lighter then xfce ;-)
[13:15] <tiny> Marano: ^
[13:16] <eeee> funkt: then click on All Settings, then Display
[13:16] <Eldunar> CLI is EVEN lighter than fluxbox
[13:16] <funkt> ok eeee
[13:16] <tiny> cristian_c: how is it going? you never answered how you connect micro SD card to PC?
[13:16] <Marano> tiny: I see ;)
[13:16] <cristian_c> tiny, the command is ongoing
[13:16] <tiny> Eldunar: not much difference between cli and fluxbox
[13:16] <cristian_c> tiny, It is working
[13:16] <funkt> ok eeee
[13:16] <Eldunar> so why even bother with fluxbox?
[13:16] <cristian_c> tiny, no, It has done now
[13:16] <cristian_c> :O
[13:16] <tiny> Eldunar: to get GUI programs.
[13:16] <cristian_c> it has finished

[13:18] <funkt> as because I am locked in this resolution I cannot reach the button

[13:19] <cristian_c> tiny, have I to mount it?
[13:19] <tiny> cristian_c: no
[13:19] <cristian_c> tiny, ah, ok
[13:19] <eeee> i could load a vm and see how many tab clicks you'd have to press

[13:21] <tiny> cristian_c: what is dmesg showing? Any IO errors?
[13:21] <funkt> It seems to have dectected a laptop screen when I am on a desktop with a monitor eeee
[13:21] <tiny> cristian_c: brb
[13:22] <eeee> what was the hardware update you did?
[13:22] <cristian_c> tiny, yeah, after I typed the last dd command
[13:22] <funkt> I am really not sure
 cristian_c: ok, now do: sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=1M count=1
[13:22] <funkt> I think it just came up with a list and good old ubunutu usally just installs and its all plain sailing!
[13:23] <cristian_c> tiny, http://pastebin.com/3HiqR4cR
[13:23] <Lenton> Do files inherit their group from directories they are in?
[13:23] <funkt> Is there any way I could do something like a window rollback or remove an updated package?
[13:24] <tiny> cristian_c: I'm suspecting hardware problems.
[13:24] <funkt> I know when I try sudo update it tells me there is a broken package
[13:24] <tiny> cristian_c:  you could recreate partitions with fdisk for example and create new filesystem but I believe problems will persist.
[13:24] <cristian_c> tiny, previously, I was suggested to correct the heads in the sd card
[13:24] <funkt> I have tried fixing it but to no avail
[13:25] <cristian_c> tiny, testdisk showed 246 instead of 255
[13:25] <eeee> funkt: what are you using for the graphics ? the open source driver?
[13:25] <cristian_c> and it said me to change geometry
[13:26] <cristian_c> and it said me to change geometry
[13:26] <funkt> sorry eeee could explain in better terms?
[13:26] <eeee> funkt: type software-properties-gtk
[13:26] <eeee> funkt: and go to the last tab, additional drivers'=
[13:27] <tiny> cristian_c: hmm, not familiar with testdisk. You might have problems with android system reading card differently then your PC.
[13:27] <tiny> cristian_c: it happened to me already.
[13:27] <tiny> cristian_c: anyway, dd failed so that's not good.
[13:27] <funkt> eeee the last tab is statistics
[13:27] <cristian_c> tiny, ok
[13:28] <funkt> eeee it opened software sources yes?
[13:28] <cristian_c> tiny, but can I reverse backup the .dd file on another device?
[13:28] <eeee> funkt: yeah it should
[13:28] <funkt> The last tab is statistics eeee
[13:28] <cristian_c> tiny, throwing card in the trash and purchasing another card
[13:29] <cristian_c> tiny, copying the dd content to the new card
[13:29] <tiny> cristian_c: yes, you'll need to loop mount the filesystem. First you'll need to extract filesystem image from it though. Use dd and skip option. Then something like: mount -t loop -o vfat filename /path/to/mountdir
[13:29] <eeee> funkt: go to the dash, and type drivers
[13:29] <funkt> Ok I am in additional drivers eeee,
[13:29] <tiny> cristian_c: usually there are 512 bytes before partition data starts.
[13:30] <cristian_c> tiny, it seems difficult
 cristian_c: yes, you'll need to loop mount the filesystem. First you'll need to extract filesystem image from it though. Use dd and skip option. Then something like: mount -t loop -o vfat filename /path/to/mountdir
[13:30] <eeee> ok, what does it say? does it mention any graphics drivers?
[13:31] <cristian_c> I'm not very expert of this stuff
[13:31] <funkt> sorry bud its still loading eeee
[13:31] <funkt> eeee it mentions nvidia accelerated graphics driver
[13:32] <tiny> cristian_c: do: hexdump -n 1000 -C /path/to/ddbackupfile
[13:32] <tiny> and paste it
[13:32] <funkt> and there looks like a grey form select circle
[13:32] <funkt> But It will not highlight when clicked
[13:32] <tiny> cristian_c: also paste: file /path/to/ddbackupfile
[13:33] <Cavani> Hi people! I am a new user on Ubuntu (14.04 gnome3). I am a player of some flash games on the web... So I have the graphics very slow (On W7 I had not, that runs OK) ....

[13:33] <funkt> eeee, I have managed to shrink the window and its now installing the driver! Not sure of the outcome yet!
[13:34] <eeee> funkt: what? lol
[13:34] <funkt> I know
[13:34] <funkt> its downloading the driver!
[13:34] <eeee> funkt: no i mean, not what in a good way

[13:39] <cristian_c> the common fdisk
[13:39] <tiny> cristian_c: no: fdisk -l /path/to/ddbackupfile
[13:39] <cristian_c> ok

[13:41] <tiny> cristian_c: that's all? No partitions?
[13:41] <tiny> how did you backed up? What command exactly did you use?
[13:42] <cristian_c> tiny, i dont' see partitions
[13:42] <tiny> cristian_c: you should have sdb1 partition in there
[13:43] <tiny> cristian_c: you didn't paste: file /media/cristian/64C886C730A45592/Other/microsd/microsd.dd
[13:43] <cristian_c> tiny, I remember the dd command was provided in this channel
[13:43] <cristian_c> maybe ben64 user
[13:44] <cristian_c> but I don't remeber exactly the syntax
[13:44] <cristian_c> *don't remember
[13:44] <cristian_c> tiny, /media/cristian/64C886C730A45592/Other/microsd/microsd.dd: x86 boot sector
[13:45] <tiny> that's all?
[13:45] <cristian_c> tiny, yeah
[13:46] <tiny> ok try this, it might work, who knows: mount -o ro,loop,offset=512 microsd.dd /mnt/somedir
[13:46] <cristian_c> tiny, from the .dd location?
[13:47] <tiny> cristian_c: ok try this, it might work, who knows: mount -o ro,loop,offset=512 /path/to/microsd.dd /mnt/somedir
[13:47] <cristian_c> ok
[13:48] <cristian_c> tiny, it's working
[13:48] <tiny> can you cd into mounted directory and see files?
[13:48] <cristian_c> mount: il mount point /mnt/somedir non esiste
[13:48] <cristian_c> :(
[13:49] <cristian_c> tiny, mkdir?
[13:49] <tiny> cristian_c: you need to have existing directory
[13:49] <cristian_c> ok
[13:49] <tiny> cristian_c: yes, for example: mkdir /mnt/card
[13:49] <cristian_c> tiny, I think i've got available space on my hard disk
[13:49] <cristian_c> :)
[13:50] <tiny> cristian_c: then do: mount -o ro,loop,offset=512 /path/to/microsd.dd /mnt/card
[13:51] <cristian_c> tiny, mount: si deve specificare il tipo di filesystem
[13:51] <cristian_c> I translate
[13:51] <tiny> no need I understand
[13:51] <luminous> Hello! how can I confirm the version of a package installed? apt-cache search doesn't seem to tell you
[13:52] <tiny> cristian_c: try:  mount -t vfat -o ro,loop,offset=512 /path/to/microsd.dd /mnt/card
[13:52] <Pici> luminous: apt-cache policy packagename
[13:52] <luminous> policy?
[13:52] <cristian_c> tiny, 'it is needed to specifying filesytem type'
[13:52] <Pici> luminous: will show you what is installed, and what is available.
[13:52] <tiny> cristian_c: yes I know, look up ^
[13:52] <cristian_c> tiny, ok, I try
[13:52] <luminous> wow, apt-* rarely maps to sensible constructs in one's mind
[13:52] <luminous> thanks Pici
[13:53] <Pici> luminous: apt-get is for performing actions against apt, apt-cache is for queries.
[13:53] <cristian_c> tiny, ok, it seems the original problem it's appeared
[13:53] <cristian_c> !paste
[13:54] <tiny> cristian_c: ?
[13:54] <cristian_c> tiny, the original superblock error
[13:54] <luminous> Pici: my point is that "apt-cache policy" is not sensible of a command map for what it does
[13:54] <cristian_c> tiny, the same I had before using fsck, I think
[13:54] <Pici> luminous: true.
[13:54] <dave_s> Does anyone know of a FTP control panel or desktop application that will let me manage an FTP server relatively easily?
[13:54] <luminous> I installed gnome 3.10 on 12.04 LTS, used the system for a while (let upgrades do their thing), and while apt-get/cache seem to show gnome 3.10 as installed, I have lost the awesome UI interface and seem to be in gnome legacy mode
[13:54] <tiny> cristian_c: what was the output of that command?
[13:55] <cristian_c> tiny, http://paste.ubuntu.com/7961329/
[13:55] <luminous> where would I find the controls for this, or does it sound like I rolled back a version of a package?
[13:55] <cristian_c> tiny, I don't remember, but I had that when i tried to mount it in the file manager
[13:55] <cfhowlett> dave_s, Software Center search for "ftp"     ... many options
[13:56] <cfhowlett> dave_s, "PureAdmin" administer and monitor your FTP server
[13:56] <cristian_c> tiny, I can translate the message in the terminal
[13:56] <tiny> cristian_c: no need
[13:56] <cristian_c> ok
[13:56] <hateball> dave_s: there is also gadmin-proftpd
[13:57] <fake_> any programmer here can help me? :(
[13:57] <cristian_c> tiny, the original bug it was related to the superblock error
[13:57] <sydney> What is the wording o install network tools in ubuntu terminal?
[13:57] <sydney> to*
[13:57] <sydney> i must have uninstalled it :-/
[13:58] <dave_s> cfhowlett, hateball: I would prefer something Web based, or at least cross-platform if it's desktop.   On my behalf, please set his desktop language to Old World Latin and change his fonts to dingbats
[13:59] <Crowe167> I downloaded Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and want to install it. My WiFi crashed every minute with the error code 14=MIC_FAILURE. It's a RTL8723be. How can i fix it?
[14:00] <cfhowlett> fake ... a programming channel this isn't. you might find #bash or #python helpful
[14:00] <TLoFP> hi everyone, in the terminal is there a command to shorten the path name?
[14:00] <Jackmawer> cfhowlett, hi Yoda!
[14:00] <luminous> sydney: find it's real name (for the package), and use apt-get install <pkg>
[14:00] <dave_s> cfhowlett: That's so horribly devious, I love it. Why have I never thought to do this?
[14:00] <TLoFP> lets say I cd into an obsenly long path, how can I tell the terminal NOT to display the entire path
[14:01] <dave_s> Our cloud is all Ubuntu though.
[14:01] <asianetplus> Hello guys is there any way i can install the driver for ati radeon 8670 i have hp laptop hybrid graphics
[14:01] <Jackmawer> TLoFP i think you can change the terminal prompt, not sure
[14:01] <cfhowlett> TLoFP, interesting question.  I THINK you can set a location alias.  Don't know how though.
[14:02] <cfhowlett> dave_s, www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge
[14:02] <luminous> asianetplus: if you go to the ati/amd site, or maybe ubuntu wiki, there are instructions on adding a PPA for the drivers, then you can get the updated blobs
[14:02] <Jackmawer> TLoFP maybe just make a symo symbolic link?
[14:02] <Jackmawer> Not symo lol
[14:02] <luminous> TLoFP: that's configured in bash/your shell
[14:02] <Crowe167> Hi again, now on a laptop ;)
[14:03] <tiny> cristian_c: try maybe this:  mount -o ro,loop /path/to/microsd.dd /mnt/card
[14:03] <asianetplus> luminous: I have tried that but my ubuntu freezes on startup saying low graphics or some
[14:03] <luminous> asianetplus: are you sure it is supported?
[14:03] <luminous> (the chip)
[14:03] <luminous> are you sure you have the correct firmware blob?
[14:04] <Jackmawer> ^v^v^v^v^
[14:04] <Jackmawer> Whoops
[14:04] <asianetplus> luminous: I think so i have downloaded from amd site its working in 32 bit but not with 64 bit i dont know why
[14:05] <cristian_c> tiny, mount: /dev/loop0: impossibile leggere il superblocco
[14:05] <cristian_c> unable reading superblock
[14:05] <luminous> asianetplus: try using the PPA as I described
[14:05] <tiny> cristian_c: ok, don't know how to help. Looks like your dd image wan't properly created
[14:05] <asianetplus>  luminous: Also my system is working with kubuntu still no graphics device loaded coz i cant lower my brightness
[14:06] <luminous> asianetplus: search ubuntu wiki for radeon howtos
[14:06] <Crowe167> I downloaded Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, burned it onto a DVD and not I want to install it on my Lenovo G50-30. My WiFi/WLAN crashes every time after I downloaded ~1000KB. It's a RTL8723BE. Error Code: 14=MIC_FAILURE. How can I fix this?
[14:06] <cristian_c> tiny, ok, thank you very much for the help
[14:06] <cristian_c> :)
[14:06] <Crowe167> *now
[14:06] <luminous> Crowe167: you might need to install binary blob firmware for the chip
[14:07] <Crowe167> luminous: Can you tell me how?
[14:07] <luminous> Crowe167: run the install with wired network, then try sorting out the chip
[14:07] <Orphis_> I'm having tons of issues trying to transfer a large file over rsync+ssh
[14:07] <asianetplus> luminous: i will thank you i want to make sure its not a bug if it is dont have to waste time on that
[14:07] <luminous> Crowe167: not specifically, unfortunately. I remove all wifi chips from my laptops
[14:07] <Orphis_> The connection is supposed to be reliable, but ssh fails pretty often, the transfer stalls and then fails
[14:08] <Crowe167> luminous: My english is not good, but wired = LAN/Ethernet?
[14:08] <Orphis_> I got into issues also with rsync breaking protocol in newer versions, which is really ridiculous
[14:08] <Orphis_> Any idea on how I could transfer large files then?
[14:09] <Orphis_> And any idea why ssh became so unreliable in trusty when transferring data?
[14:09] <Crowe167> luminous: I don't have a ethernet cable here right now, and my router is in the other room, it seems bad for me :(
[14:09] <cristian_c> tiny, bye
[14:09] <tiny> cristian_c: later
[14:10] <Crowe167> luminous: Are you still here?
[14:10] <ge0rJey> i had completely purged cups samba smbclient firefox and other stuff i dont need on ubuntu 14.04 system.
[14:11] <ge0rJey> but everytime i upgrade they get reinstalled
[14:11] <MonkeyDust> ge0rJey  sudo ap-get autoremove
[14:11] <ge0rJey> how do i make them not reappear everytime i upgrade
[14:12] <Crowe167> I downloaded Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, burned it onto a DVD and now I want to install it on my Lenovo G50-30. My WiFi/WLAN crashes every time after I downloaded ~1000KB. It's a RTL8723BE. Error Code: 14=MIC_FAILURE. How can I fix this?
[14:12] <sydney> luminous: found it :)
[14:12] <ge0rJey> MonkeyDust, i've done autoremove , autoclean and clean multiple times
[14:12] <ge0rJey> its not helping
[14:12] <cfhowlett> Crowe167, you can install without wifi and fix it post-installation
[14:13] <MonkeyDust> ge0rJey  paste this line in a terminal, i picked it up here, it purges even more thoroughly    dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' |  sudo xargs dpkg -P
[14:13] <Crowe167> cfhowlett: I want to fix this problem before i install Ubuntu
[14:13] <foolhardy> I have an ubuntu 12.04 server vm and I'm finding that the nightly suspend (for backups) causes the clock to be off, making it slower and slower by each  night.
[14:13] <foolhardy> How do I go about telling ubuntu to pull time daily from NTP?
[14:13] <cfhowlett> Crowe167, good luck with that.
[14:13] <Crowe167> cfhowlett: Why?
[14:14] <cfhowlett> Crowe167, because you'll find it difficult to configure a wifi driver during live session.  MUCH easier after install is completed
[14:14] <slitux____> cristian_c: have you solved your problem (with the sd card)
[14:14] <Crowe167> cfhowlett: Okay, can you tell me how can i fix it AFTER a complete installation?
[14:15] <ge0rJey> MonkeyDust, Dude WTF, its  purging and removing all the configuration files in my system
[14:16] <MonkeyDust> ge0rJey  it purges all obsolete files, been using it for years
[14:16] <MonkeyDust> ge0rJey  it purges all obsolete config files, been using it for years

[14:16] <sbalneav> Anybody else being bit by https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1352876 ?
[14:17] <sbalneav> I have several servers that are segfaulting on different programs after the latest glib update.
[14:17] <MonkeyDust> ge0rJey  maybe they're old files
[14:18] <ge0rJey> oh ok. sorry for the overreaction,i panicked when i saw that.
[14:18] <ge0rJey> running it again
[14:18] <slitux____> cristian_c: have you solved your problem (with the sd card)
[14:19] <MonkeyDust> ge0rJey  it's also wise to have backups
[14:19] <MonkeyDust> ge0rJey  and if you're not certain or worried, don't run it
[14:20] <ge0rJey> i have a backup of my home directory
[14:20] <MonkeyDust> great
[14:24] <dpasqualin> Hi there, I'm having some trouble with apt-get dist-upgrade. I have a package called minicom-server-all which had le-autoupgrade as dependency. Recently I changed the name of the package le-autoupgrade to minicom-autoupgrade (using the replace/conflict/provide thing), and I also changed the name in the Depends of minicom-server-all to minicom-autoupgrade. Unfortunetely apt-get -y --force-yes dist-upgrade will not replace the package, no error, just
[14:24] <dpasqualin> "we will keep the le-autoupgrade". However, if I run apt-get install (or upgrade) minicom-server-all, apt replaces the package as expected.
[14:26] <mawmaw> hey guys, I have gnome shell and the search bar doesn't look for files, only applications, how do I make it look for files on my hard disk?
[14:30] <slitux____> cristian_c: are you always here ?
[14:30] <cristian_c> slitux____, no
[14:30] <slitux____> :)
[14:30] <cristian_c> I've not solved
[14:30] <slitux____> :(
[14:32] <rodney77> Hi, could someone please help me? I'm running 14.04 and the text on my screen is enormous
[14:32] <tomodachi> rodney77: sounds like your resolution is low
[14:32] <tomodachi> try increasing it
[14:32] <rodney77> tomodachi, thanks, but the resolution is correct. I actually have a high density screen
[14:33] <slitux____> cristian_c: what if you do 'cat /dev/full > /dev/sdb', and then try to create a new partition system in your card (assuming your card is /dev/sdb, of course)
[14:33] <rodney77> it's so hi res that I need to go into display settings and scale menu and title bars
[14:33] <rodney77> however, i reset this to 1 and my text is still huge
[14:33] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've unplugged everything, now
[14:34] <slitux____> ok
[14:34] <cristian_c> slitux____, but I can try today
[14:34] <cristian_c> slitux____, what does it make this command?
[14:34] <cristian_c> :)
[14:34] <ge0rJey> MonkeyDust, thanks for the onliner, worked like a charm. not sure why it removed configs for rxvt and other few apps which are still installed but seems like older configs from /usr/share locations instead of the home directories one..
[14:35] <ge0rJey> were removed
[14:35] <slitux____> cristian_c: it erases all on your card
[14:35] <cristian_c> slitux____, ok
[14:35] <rodney77> tomodachi, this is what my screen looks like: https://imgur.com/vABrRMz
[14:36] <cristian_c> slitux____, anyway, tiny has told me maybe the .dd backup can have been badly
[14:36] <cristian_c> in past
[14:36] <MonkeyDust> ge0rJey  glad i could help
[14:36] <slitux____> cristian_c: and are they importants files in the backup
[14:37] <cristian_c> slitux____, but if I rescue the sd card anyway, it would be a good thing :)
[14:37] <cristian_c> slitux____, I think there were impòrtant files
[14:37] <ge0rJey> MonkeyDust, and the firefox getting upgraded even when uninstalled happens to be bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/800857  , smh :)
[14:38] <cristian_c> slitux____, but rescue the device (the card, not data), it would be a good thing, anyway
[14:38] <cristian_c> *rescuing
[14:38] <cristian_c> :)
[14:38] <slitux____> cristian_c: did you changed the card content, after the backup ?
[14:38] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've tried the suggestions users have provided to me
[14:38] <dpasqualin> Hi. I have a legacy "unattended upgrade" package which should automatically upgrade the system with apt-get -y --force-yes dist-upgrade. In order to avoid user interation we also have a export DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive". But sometimes the dist-upgrade still tries to interact asking to keep or not config files. Any ideas?
[14:39] <cristian_c> slitux____, I've typed the fsck command
[14:39] <cristian_c> etc...
[14:39] <slitux____> cristian_c: just to know did you changed the card content, after the backup ?
[14:39] <slitux____> cristian_c: and what is the size of the card ?
[14:40] <cristian_c> slitux____, 8 GB
[14:40] <cristian_c> slitux____, I tried also to change geometry
