[00:02] <nacc> everson: is it possible when run as root, it's using root's home directory to search for profiles (I assume gnome-terminal must save them somewhere in ~)
[00:02] <nacc> everson: also, why are you running gnome-terminal as root?
[00:02] <squinty> django_, first is Windows using the whole hard drive?  If yes, you will need to shrink it first before installing.  re along side or something else, it depends on how you want to set it up.  Using "something else allows the user to set the partitions and their sizes etc according to their personal preferences.  If not worried about that, then use "install along side"
[00:03] <django_> errr afk
[00:09] <explodes> "fsck" starts up in a black screen on boot, and stays there forever (2 days last time i was patient)
[00:10] <explodes> I need to do a fresh install anyway, it's been a few years
[00:12] <at54tl> Good evening
[00:12] <thehippie> explodes: What version are you booting into?
[00:12] <explodes> 15.04 i believe
[00:12] <explodes> maybe 15.10
[00:13] <at54tl> I would like help setting up an Apache https server please.
[00:13] <squinty> 15.04 is eol
[00:13] <explodes> I'm still going to do a fresh install, but last time I had problems with unetbootin and UEFI - I forget what I had to do in my BIOS to get it to start up correctly
[00:13] <chris__w> I wish you could go from 15.04 to 16.04. Two upgrades is just sooo time consuming
[00:14] <at54tl> can anyone help me please?
[00:14] <squinty> !lamp | at54tl
[00:16] <at54tl> I have set up LAMP but for some reason I can't access https externally only internally
[00:16] <at54tl> any advice?
[00:17] <nacc> chris__w: well, the idea is if you chose to be on 15.04, you should have upgraded to 15.10 some time ago
[00:17] <nacc> chris__w: that's the idea behind hte development releases, at least
[00:17] <chris__w> nacc: Yeah, I was lazy. I paid the price for it
[00:17] <nacc> chris__w: :) (or maybe :/)
[00:19] <at54tl> my website is https://www.lpsys.net
[00:19] <at54tl> Port 80 and 443 has been opened
[00:20] <at54tl> but I can't access https
[00:21] <andy__> hello
[00:22] <at54tl> I need help with my Ubuntu Lamp
[00:22] <at54tl> hi
[00:22] <nacc> !patience | at54tl
[00:23] <nacc> at54tl: can you access it locally? (like on the server directly)
[00:24] <explodes> omg
[00:24] <at54tl> yes I can access it locally
[00:24] <at54tl> :)
[00:24] <at54tl> but not externally
[00:25] <nacc> at54tl: is your webserver listening on the public IP on the appropriate port (`netstat -pan` as root will tell you)
[00:26] <at54tl> It's port forswarded through my router.
[00:26] <nacc> at54tl: do you see the https request at all?
[00:27] <thehippie> at54tl: Ports are open through the router and no firewall running right?
[00:28] <at54tl> yes no firewall port is opened through the router
[00:31] <thehippie> at54tl: Run "telnet localhost 443"
[00:31] <thehippie> at54tl: If telnet connects, then run "iptables -L -n"
[00:33] <at54tl> ok
[00:33] <at54tl> iptables v1.4.21: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Permission denied
[00:34] <nacc> probably need sudo
[00:35] <at54tl> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16330448/
[00:35] <at54tl> I pasted the output
[00:36] <explodes> nice - two drives have failed, that's why i'm having a hard time
[00:36] <explodes> could this be an indication of a mobo failure?
[00:36] <at54tl> any thoughts?
[00:37] <squinty> explodes,   run Disks and see Smart data to make sure your disks are failing
[00:37] <thehippie> at54tl: It looks fine to me. What is the web server provider? They might have a secondary firewall built in.
[00:37] <explodes> squinty: one is failing by Smart
[00:38] <at54tl> I run it at home
[00:38] <explodes> the other is no longer recognized as a disk
[00:39] <at54tl> so what can I do?
[00:39] <OerHeks> explodes, could be mobo/controller, or powersupply or just the drives
[00:39] <squinty> explodes:  usually just a case of hardware failure, afaik.  can't really recall any situations where motherboard would cause such failures but others milage might vary on that topic
[00:40] <explodes> For my new boot disk, I should dd to /dev/sdb not /dev/sdb1, right?
[00:40] <squinty> right
[00:40] <explodes> Why is unetbootin even recommended
[00:40] <at54tl> hello?
[00:41] <squinty> explodes:  works for me  :-)
[00:41] <thehippie> at54tl: I'm thinking, running out of ideas
[00:41] <explodes> squinty: do you have UEFI?
[00:41] <at54tl> ok thanks
[00:42] <squinty> explodes, no  :P
[00:45] <thehippie> at54tl: Honestly, if it isn't a firewall issue then probably something in your httpd-ssl.conf
[00:46] <at54tl> ok
[00:46] <thehippie> Do you have Listen 443 in there?
[00:47] <at54tl> yes
[00:48] <thehippie> Do you get an error at all?
[00:49] <at54tl> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16330896/
[00:49] <at54tl> there it is
[00:50] <thehippie> at54tl: Set your error log to "debug" level. And see if you get an error that can narrow this down.
[00:50] <at54tl> where to do I do that?
[00:51] <thehippie> at54tl: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16331001/
[00:53] <thehippie> at54tl: Restart Apache once you set the error level
[00:53] <at54tl> I put those entries in ports.conf ?
[00:56] <thehippie> at54tl: sudo nano /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[00:57] <thehippie> Look through that file, should have a LogLevel section
[00:58] <thehippie> The default is "warn" i believe
[01:02] <at54tl> ok I have put in the debug statements
[01:03] <thehippie> Errors are good. Give us an idea where we need to look
[01:06] <at54tl> <IFModule mod_ssl.c>
[01:06] <at54tl>    ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/ssl_engine.log
[01:06] <at54tl>    LogLevel debug

[01:08] <amitab> Installed 16.04 on my NuC 5i5RYK and getting weird screen tearing every so often
[01:08] <amitab> Intel HD 6000 I believe is the integrated graphics
[01:08] <azizLIGHT> holy crap how do u turn off the screen reader?!
[01:09] <azizLIGHT> how do i turn off orca screen reader please
[01:10] <azizLIGHT> its reading everything and theres no dialog box for it to shut it off
[01:10] <thehippie> haha top right of the desktop
[01:10] <azizLIGHT> thehippie: i dont see anything there related to orca?
[01:10] <thehippie> to remove forever, go to Start>Search "Orca Screen reader">Right-click> Uninstall
[01:11] <squinty> azizLIGHT,  Orca can be enabled and disabled using the Alt + Super + S keyboard shortcut. Orca can also be enabled and disabled using the same shortcut key at the login screen. The super key is also known as the Windows key.   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Accessibility
[01:11] <thehippie> ^
[01:11] <azizLIGHT> phew, i have default key binding on that one
[01:11] <azizLIGHT> omg no i dont
[01:11] <azizLIGHT> hes still reading
[01:11] <squinty> lol
[01:11] <thehippie> LOL
[01:11] <squinty> panic time!!  I am using ubuntu 14.04. Why all of a sudden I can't access my HDDs? I can see them on /media/myname/ but for some reason I need to be root
[01:17] <wymillerlinux> Switch root's password: sudo su -, passwd
[01:18] <wymillerlinux> administrador: I don't know why you see your hard disks tho...
[01:18] <administrador> wymillerlinux, Is that gonna make my HDDs visible?
[01:19] <wymillerlinux> if your the root user, i think so
[01:19] <Bashing-om> administrador: What file systems and who owns the mount points ?
[01:19] <administrador> wymillerlinux, but I dont want to open them as root, I have files that need to be accessed by other programs
[01:21] <administrador> Bashing-om, one of them is ext4 and the other one is fat32 or NTFS
[01:21] <administrador> Bashing-om, I don't know who own the mounting points
[01:21] <wymillerlinux> administrador: good point, you can always open programs as root with 'sudo myprogram' with myprogram being the program you need to be running
[01:22] <wymillerlinux> but you probs don't want to do that lol
[01:22] <administrador> No, I don't know what happened, probably a program I installed, I dunno
[01:23] <administrador> you think I could just chmod 777 to the HDD?
[01:23] <Bashing-om> administrador: Are the hard drives .. internal ..or external ? what returuns ' ls -al /media/<username)/<device> ?
[01:24] <wymillerlinux> administrador: sure, or you could 755 your drives if only you want access to your drives
[01:25] <Bashing-om> administrador: fat and NTFS are not POSUX complient .. chmod no workie .
[01:25] <administrador> Bashing-om, drwx------  2 root root 4096 may  9 18:12 Arte
[01:25] <administrador> and I can't see the other one
[01:26] <administrador> I can't even open disks app
[01:27] <Bashing-om> administrador: Internal drives ? such that the mount is established in the /etc/fstab file ?
[01:28] <administrador> Bashing-om, They are internal, but I do not know anything about /etc/fstab thing...
[01:28] <administrador> there is nothing in /etc/fstab.d file
[01:29] <wymillerlinux> administrador: personally, i'd check the power and the data (IDE/SATA) cables are plugged in and the bios to make sure your drives are there
[01:29] <Bashing-om> administrador: ' cat /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . Pass the link back here and we see how they are mounted .
[01:30] <explodes> administrador: did you reboot already to see if something switched? if you're in terminal, are a different user?
[01:30] <explodes> oh, root:root, huh
[01:31] <administrador> http://termbin.com/88mk
[01:31] <wymillerlinux> Bashing-om: gnome disks should see the disks, right? said disks don't have to be mentioned in /etc/fstab do they??
[01:31] <administrador> explodes, same user.
[01:32] <explodes> inb4 i just nuked all my backup drives
[01:33] <wymillerlinux> the drives, it's not even there. only your install drive and your swap...
[01:34] <Bashing-om> administrador: There is no provision in fstab to mount the "internal" hard druves .. do they exist to the system ' sudo fdisk -lu ' . To know what we are working with .
[01:35] <Bashing-om> administrador: Correct in that the file manager should be aware of them .
[01:36] <administrador> http://pastebin.com/5n9nYGTE
[01:37] <explodes> what is the name of 16.04?
[01:37] <explodes> i.e. trusty
[01:37] <administrador> I use Lubuntu 14.04 64bits
[01:37] <AstaraOS-Support> hi all for astaraos support join /server irc.ponychat.net #ASTARAOS
[01:37] <explodes> Xenial Xyrus???

[01:37] <AstaraOS-Support> hi all for astaraos support join /server irc.ponychat.net #ASTARAOS
[01:38] <wymillerlinux> explodes: something like that, i'd double check on that spelling lol
[01:39] <explodes> that name is ridiculous
[01:39] <explodes> I like it..
[01:44] <wymillerlinux> explodes: right?!
[01:50] <administrador> Fixed
[01:50] <administrador> I ust had to reboot.
[01:50] <administrador> Talk about stability :/
[01:52] <OerHeks>
[01:52] <Bashing-om> administrador: Good deal . I guess the GVFS system got confused .
[01:52] <OerHeks> administrador, if this happens again, do a memtest86 run
[01:53] <explodes> uhh wtf.
[01:53] <explodes> How do I restore my the default ubuntu backup system??
[01:53] <OerHeks> explodes, no need for that language
[01:55] <phukboi> anybody else had issues with the google chrome .deb on 16.04?
[01:55] <phukboi> i can't get it to install with either software center or dpkg
[01:55] <HackerII> why would anyone answer to a nick like that
[01:56] <phukboi> herro?
[01:57] <explodes> The "Backup" program has no "restore" option, am I correct?
[01:57] <eniacpx> Is it possible to remove all the crazy DNS management and revert back to good old resolv.conf?
[01:58] <phukboi> nvm the dependency is all fucked up
[01:59] <OerHeks> phukboi,  no need for that language here
[01:59] <phukboi> OerHeks: calm down
[01:59] <phukboi> don't get all excited
[02:00] <wymillerlinux> phukboi: i use gdebi, way better than dpkg
[02:00] <OerHeks> phukboi, follow the channel rules, and you'll be fine, don't talk to me like that.
[02:01] <wymillerlinux> phukboi: gdebi installs local packages and finds dependencies for said package
[02:01] <lsblk> Why isn't my ssh server logging files anymore? My log file got too large, so I deleted it, recreated auth.log to start over... and yet it isn't logging and I don't know why.
[02:02] <phukboi> thanks wymillerlinux
[02:02] <phukboi> people are too excitable in here

[02:03] <wymillerlinux> phukboi: anytime, behave yourself, alright?
[02:04] <mcc> Hello… I have an ubuntu box which is about a thousand years old and has been through multiple dist-upgrades
[02:05] <_exploit0> ?
[02:05] <mcc> I find if I say `sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv`it says `Package python-virtualenv is not available, but is referred to by another package.`
[02:06] <mcc> If I search google for what to do, they say to run `sudo add-apt-repository universe` … if i do this it says `add-apt-repository: command not found`
[02:07] <OerHeks> mcc uncomment it in sources.list, or in the updatetool> sources
[02:09] <mcc> there is not such a line in my /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:09] <mcc> what's updatetool
[02:11] <OerHeks> not sure what version you are using, but there should be a line like deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ <version> universe
[02:11] <OerHeks> or type sources in dash, and the update tool should show up
[02:15] <Rhorse> mcc: when's the last time you updated that box?
[02:15] <mcc> i figured it out thanks
[02:15] <mcc> rhorse: 14.04
[02:17] <Rhorse> mcc: frequent updates are the key, I've found
[02:17] <Rhorse> weekly updates
[02:18] <mcc> oh
[02:18] <mcc> i do apt-get upgrade regularly, i just mean i haven't dist-upgraded since 14.04
[02:18] <SonikkuAmerica> !dist-upgrade | mcc
[02:19] <SonikkuAmerica> it's also called [ apt full-upgrade ] now
[02:19] <mcc> ok
[02:21] <Rhorse> The newest versions of swc are good at reminding when updates are available. Still, a nightly cron job is probably the safe choice.
[02:35] <django_> Hey
[02:37] <django_> I'm installing Ubuntu and want dual boot with Windows
[02:37] <django_> So I click something else, then what
[02:38] <rock> Something else?
[02:38] <thehippie1> then "sudo shutdown"
[02:38] <OerHeks> django_, the answer that has been given, first make space on windows, then install alongside
[02:39] <rock> Once i had chosen to install on entire disk and i loosed the window disk..:(
[02:39] <django_> OerHeks: how do I make space for Windows?
[02:39] <django_> Err on Windows
[02:39] <rock> Go to disk management and allocate some free space for ubuntu
[02:39] <OerHeks> in windows, diskmanagment. select the disk, and you can shrink it.
[02:40] <OerHeks> it calculates the max too, very handy
[02:40] <rock> OerHeks provide him some link
[02:40] <django_> Ok
[02:42] <OerHeks> !install
[02:42] <OerHeks> tons of that stuff, easy to find
[02:43] <phukboi> d
[02:45] <rock> Django_  which system you are using?
[02:45] <django_> Rock w8
[02:46] <rock> Sorry i meant company name?
[02:47] <django_> Toshiba
[02:48] <rock> Ok then go for dual boot
[02:48] <rock> It will be easy
[02:48] <wyoung> Nah don
[02:48] <django_> Rock thank the lord!!!
[02:48] <wyoung> 't
[02:50] <wyoung> Dual boot is the worst, just install Linux and run windows in a VM if you need
[02:50] <rock> Wyoung i am using since years
[02:51] <wyoung> you are using what?
[02:51] <rock> Dual boot
[02:51] <wyoung> nah it is the worst
[02:51] <rock> Ok..but i found it useful
[02:52] <django_> https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/VnYB9ooV/
[02:52] <django_> how is that for the windos partition
[02:52] <wyoung> rock: using VMs is the best
[02:52] <wymillerlinux> wyoung: depends on what you use each os for
[02:53] <django_> rock is tht correct?
[02:53] <wyoung> wymillerlinux: There are use cases where VMs is not appropriate?
[02:54] <django_> is unallocated correct??
[02:54] <reisio> wyoung: there's basically no case where a VM _is_ appropriate
[02:55] <wyoung> reisio: really?
[02:55] <wymillerlinux> wyoung: yeah but it's controversial
[02:55] <reisio> wyoung: why would you seek out overhead
[02:55] <django_> ok i gues its right
[02:56] <wyoung> reisio: negligable when you weigh up the advantages
[02:56] <wymillerlinux> wyoung: personally, i'd use a VM
[02:57] <reisio> wyoung: you may be confusing sticking your head in the sand and repeating "short term gratification is better than long term efficiency" with an advantage
[02:57] <wymillerlinux> reisio: true
[02:58] <wyoung> reisio: I call automatic failover of a VM to another physical machine an advantage
[02:58] <reisio> also, that only works in magical scenarios where it _does_ work in the short term, and you don't invest time and effort debugging hardware virtualization
[02:58] <reisio> wyoung: that is not unique to hardware virtualization
[02:58] <reisio> at all
[02:59] <wyoung> reisio: the ability to jungle VMs between machines is also great when you need to service physical hardware
[02:59] <reisio> wyoung: how's that matter if you have the failover you just spoke about?
[02:59] <reisio> (answer: it doesn't)
[02:59] <wyoung> reisio: that was the failover I was just talking about
[02:59] <wyoung> another example of its use
[03:00] <reisio> that isn't failover, that's moving stuff after it's failed :p
[03:00] <reisio> you can move metal installs just as simply
[03:00] <Rhorse> How much memory you need for smooth function in VM?
[03:00] <reisio> Rhorse: depends on the host & guest, but not much, really
[03:00] <reisio> particularly since, as previously alluded to, when using hardware virtualization, people expect it to have crappy performance
[03:01] <wyoung> Rhorse: depends, you can do full blown virtualisation or paravirtualisation
[03:01] <reisio> because it will unavoidably be less performant
[03:01] <Rhorse> I see
[03:02] <wyoung> Rhorse: very little overhead though
[03:02] <wyoung> Rhorse: but compared with the advantages it's nothing
[03:02] <Rhorse> wyoung: and you install Windows into VM how..?
[03:02] <booh> I update my 12.04.03 with dist-upgrade and grub-install give me error failed to get canonical path. Also, with df -hm I have /dev/disk/by-uid/e234324-ac3234324.. instead of /dev/md0
[03:03] <booh> I didn't reboot.. I wait to be sure..
[03:03] <wymillerlinux> Rhorse: if you're thinking of running a terminal server, it REALLY doesn't take much, less than one gig of ram
[03:03] <django_> Ok I made a partition now how do I install Ubuntu
[03:04] <booh> Update-grub or grub-install give me this error.  Normaly I do grub-install /dev/sdc2 and /dev/sdd2 before rebooting.. never had problems.
[03:04] <django_> I made the usb and booter into Ubuntu
[03:04] <reisio> Rhorse: it's pretty transparent most of the time, just tell your VM to boot the install media
[03:04] <Rhorse> wymillerlinux: thinking more of a place to run the occasional windows app...PokerStars...photoshop, etc..
[03:04] <munch_28> Can anyone help me with finding Wine directory so I can modify a file for wow?
[03:05] <wyoung> Rhorse: boot off a boot disc within the VM
[03:05] <wymillerlinux> Rhorse: Gotcha. In that case, follow reisio instructions
[03:05] <wyoung> Rhorse: or use an existing image
[03:05] <Rhorse> I see
[03:06] <drama> munch_28,  how did you install wine
[03:06] <wyoung> munch_28: ~/.wine
[03:06] <Rhorse> So, the boot is virtual as well. Cool...
[03:06] <wyoung> generally
[03:06] <wyoung> Rhorse: of course :)
[03:06] <wymillerlinux> munch_28: press ctrl + h to reveal the hidden files and folders and you should find a .wine folder in your home directory
[03:07] <munch_28> wymillerlinux: Thanks
[03:07] <munch_28> wyoung: Thank you as well
[03:07] <munch_28> drama: PPA for newest one
[03:08] <munch_28> Ubuntu Software Center for the older version
[03:08] <django_> https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/9FjfLhwm/1462849693.JPG
[03:08] <munch_28> But I think a duplicate WTF file exist which is causing an issue, and it isn't by default "running out of the box" like I was told it would because it's trying to use DX11
[03:08] <drama> munch_28, ls -a    - do you have a .wine directory?
[03:09] <munch_28> drama: I see it via terminal that way, but not by ctrl+h in the GUI File "Explorer"
[03:10] <wyoung> munch_28: Nautalus
[03:11] <django_> will someone help??
[03:11] <wyoung> munch_28: make sure you have keyboard focus on it too
[03:11] <munch_28> wyoung: right, well it 's still not showing, despite other things that were originally hidden being shown after hitting ctrl+h
[03:12] <wyoung> hmmmm
[03:12] <wymillerlinux> django_: i'll help you one sec
[03:12] <drama> munch_28, look in that 'folder'
[03:12] <munch_28> ok, so what book should I read to know how to work this OS? I feel like I'm completely lost
[03:12] <munch_28> drama: look in what folder?
[03:13] <wyoung> munch_28: any book about linux if you want to know how to use the command line interface.
[03:14] <wyoung> munch_28: but you probably want to look into wine specifically as that is the application you want to know where it is storing its files
[03:14] <wyoung> munch_28: that isn't related to the OS specificallu
[03:14] <jmario> I dont like wine,   I prefer some alternatives softwares!
[03:14] <reisio> I prefer switching to superior open source software, so I don't ever have to switch again
[03:15] <wyoung> jmario: so do I, I prefer to use a Windows VM
[03:15] <munch_28> wyoung: I keep hearing that as an alternative....
[03:15] <wyoung> reisio: Sounds like make believe
[03:15] <munch_28> Is wine really that bad?
[03:15] <django_> https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/Dmoy6LCa/1462850125.JPG
[03:15] <reisio> wyoung: it's more like what I did in 2005
[03:16] <wyoung> munch_28: depends what you want to do.  For gaming I use wine.  For office apps I use a VM
[03:16] <reisio> munch_28: no, Wine is actually a much better implementation of win32 than Windows
[03:16] <wymillerlinux> django_: sorry that took a while lol, that looks about right
[03:16] <reisio> it's merely less ideal than native, & open source
[03:16] <django_> wymillerlinux: do I just hit ok?
[03:16] <munch_28> And I asked if I need to read a book about the OS because issues like me not being able to get into the Program Files (x86) folder is kinda holding me up to do something that should be simple but I feel like I'm missing some little bit of info
[03:16] <wymillerlinux> django_: yeah
[03:17] <django_> Ok
[03:17] <wyoung> munch_28: that has nothing to do with the OS though
[03:17] <munch_28> wyoung: No?
[03:17] <wyoung> munch_28: It is an application you are running within it
[03:17] <wymillerlinux> django_: if you have the free space selected
[03:17] <django_> wymillerlinux: no root file system is defined
[03:17] <booh> I dist-upgrade my 12.04 and I have: grub-install error: failed to get canonical path of with uid here instead of /dev/md0 or /dev/sdc2  don't know what to do... I affraid to reboot...
[03:17] <wyoung> munch_28: well do a search for it then, find / -type d -iname '*program*files*'
[03:17] <django_> https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/EDn2zjHc/1462850272.JPG
[03:18] <munch_28> wyoung: Well, for instance, using another one (downloaded dolphin) still gave me issues because despite resolving switching the default, using applications will still bring up the default
[03:18] <munch_28> Natilus? you said?
[03:18] <wyoung> munch_28: that is the name of the file manager
[03:18] <wyoung> munch_28: type that in a terminal what I pasted above
[03:18] <wyoung> munch_28: you can use nautalus to search if you want to
[03:19] <reisio> s/nautalus/nautilus/
[03:19] <wyoung> munch_28: I find it quicker to use the keyboard then constantly switching to the mouse
[03:19] <reisio> s/nautilus/files/
[03:19] <reisio> s/files/the file manager/
[03:19] <reisio> s/gnome/clowns/
[03:19] <wymillerlinux> django_: there should be a dropdown for root filesystem, i can't remember exactly
[03:19] <wyoung> s/reisio//
[03:19] <reisio> nooooo
[03:19] <wyoung> :D
[03:20] <munch_28> wyoung: that's what I'm talking about. It's like I need to know a program language to use this OS just to find a file
[03:20] <munch_28> because I don't know how to open the default file manager in administrative mode
[03:21] <wyoung> munch_28: that isn't a programming langauge, and you can search via GUI if you want to
[03:21] <wyoung> munch_28: it will probably be in your home directoty
[03:21] <wyoung> directory*
[03:22] <wyoung> munch_28: so you don't need to open it as root
[03:22] <wymillerlinux> django_: i'm wrong, click the plus button then appears a dialouge where you can set the parameters of the new parition(s)
[03:23] <wymillerlinux> including the root filesystem which is /
[03:23] <django_> Got it
[03:24] <wymillerlinux> django_: awesome, once you configured your parition(s), you can then hit ok
[03:24] <django_> Yehhhhh
[03:24] <wyoung> munch_28: I just told you the command line way of doing it because you can just copy and paste that without having you point and click, which you cant copy and paste
[03:25] <wyoung> munch_28: unless you know a way to copy and paste point and click commands over IRC?
[03:25] <munch_28> Does opengl not support advanced graphic settings in games that DX9 or 11 does?
[03:26] <wymillerlinux> munch_28: it should...?
[03:26] <wymillerlinux> munch_28: i'm not a opengl programmer lol
[03:26] <munch_28> Got wow up, but a lot of graphic settings are just off
[03:26] <wyoung> munch_28: The NVIDIA drivers allow you to do that
[03:26] <wyoung> munch_28: unless you are stupid enough to buy an ATI / AMD
[03:26] <azizLIGHT> is there a way to reset the mouse cursor
[03:26] <wyoung> s/stupid/uninformed/
[03:27] <azizLIGHT> i cant see it anymore
[03:27] <munch_28> wyoung: .....I have the NVIDIA, and have been using proprietary drivers
[03:27] <azizLIGHT> its not there when i move the mouse
[03:27] <wyoung> munch_28: Nice work!
[03:27] <reisio> azizLIGHT: you see output in a terminal if you cat /dev/input/mice and move the mouse?
[03:27] <wyoung> munch_28: open the nvidia control panel then and take a look
[03:27] <munch_28> wyoung: heh, thanks. At least fixed that issue. My fault, wrong directory folder
[03:27] <wyoung> munch_28: for directx settings open up the wine control panel
[03:27] <munch_28> wyoung: cool beans, thanks
[03:28] <wyoung> munch_28: click on the ubuntu button then type in nvidia :)
[03:28] <munch_28> wyoung: eh....Dx9, not sure about that
[03:36] <azizLIGHT> reisio: i dunno what happened, but i can see the mouse now
[03:36] <reisio> azizLIGHT: cool beanses
[03:53] <booh> I upgrade 12.04 and now grub say: Failed to get canonical path
[03:53] <booh> don't know what to do before rebooting to be sure it will work..
[03:53] <reisio> heh, canonical path, that's funny
[03:53] <dosen> How can I use this repository? http://repo.opensourceiran.ir/repo/ubuntu/
[03:53] <booh>  error: failed to get canonical path of `/dev/disk/by-uuid/e39994d5-a3c6-4371-8b5b-822c6816ea36'
[03:54] <dosen> Is this ok? "deb http://repo.opensourceiran.ir/repo/ubuntu xenial universe"
[03:55] <booh> I would like to do a do-release-upgrade to 16.04 but... it says that there is no new release.
[03:56] <booh> (I'm on 14.04)
[03:56] <YankDownUnder> booh, Have you added the proper PPA for doing the upgrade - and as well, have you checked in your package manager that you're setup and configured properly for an upgrade (distribution upgrade)?
[03:56] <booh> I'm on server.
[03:56] <Tonvin> nn/
[03:58] <goddard> is the intel-microcode worth installing?
[03:59] <YankDownUnder> booh, https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/installing-upgrading.html => Have you read through this?
[04:00] <Bashing-om> goddard:  See ' apt show intel-microcode ' and you decide .
[04:02] <booh> Just not sure I should repair the grub error before do-release-upgrade.... maybe the upgrade will fix the grub error...
[04:04] <dax> goddard: yes.
[04:04] <goddard> dax: if you don't mind sharing, why do you say yes?/
[04:04] <YankDownUnder> booh, When the machine is being upgraded, the system will update the boot.
[04:05] <dax> goddard: because it patches bugs found in Intel CPU microcode, and bugs are bad.
[04:05] <ygorl> how do i always run a script at startup in ubuntu server 14.04 ?
[04:06] <booh> YankDownUnder, I was on 14.04.03.  I've done dist-upgrade but now I'm stuck because of an error with grub...
[04:06] <booh>  error: failed to get canonical path of `/dev/disk/by-uuid/e39994d5-a3c6-4371-8b5b-822c6816ea36'
[04:06] <booh> not sure I should upgrade the release to 16.04 or fix the grub error first...
[04:09] <booh> ok seems that 14.04 to 16.04 is not ready...
[04:10] <philuk86> booh: reinstall grub.
[04:11] <booh> grub-install ?  doesn't work
[04:11] <Tonvin> exit
[04:11] <Tonvin> exit
[04:12] <philuk86> are you logged in and have terminal?
[04:15] <demon_spork> Does anyone know where I can get a KVIRC package that was compiled without KDE dependency? It is a compile time option for KVIRC to not require KDE dependencies, but I would love it if someone maintains a repo with it already compiled like that
[04:16] <booh> I'm looged

[04:28] <booh> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16337581/
[04:29] <philuk86> which disks are in your / raid?

[04:29] <booh> md0 = /
[04:29] <booh> md1 = /home
[04:30] <philuk86> you need to install grub on each of the disks not on the raid itself
[04:30] <booh> I tried already
[04:30] <philuk86> ok so grub-install /dev/sdc
[04:31] <booh> grub-install: error: failed to get canonical path of `/dev/disk/by-uuid/e39994d5-a3c6-4371-8b5b-822c6816ea36'.

[04:34] <mrr411> hey there guys and galls got a problem I reset bios and need to do fresh install of Ubuntu but when i set boot order to usb and restart I keep getting no boot disk has been detected or the disk as failed but I have used this usb before and I know it works
[04:40] <Heero151> Why is 'get' not working in my terminal, but i can pull uo the manual
[04:41] <akki101> hello!
[04:41] <Heero151> Cant find the package 'get'
[04:41] <akki101> quit
[04:42] <Bashing-om> !details
[04:49] <booh> I can try a reboot?
[04:49] <philuk86> hang on
[04:49] <philuk86> what does mdadm --detail /dev/md0
[04:51] <booh> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16337998/<
[04:52] <philuk86> thats your ext4 280GB?
[04:53] <booh> md0 is in EXT4
[04:53] <philuk86> look at the uuids
[04:54] <philuk86> they are different, in your /etc/fstab your root is on e39994d5 but this device is 67d48678
[04:54] <booh> sdc1 = swap 16G, sdc2 = raid, sdc3 = small ? something... I think 100MB for grub maybe?  sdc4 = extra 680G ext4 no use at this moment.
[04:54] <booh> yes.  I don't know why.
[04:55] <philuk86> try mdadm --detail /dev/md1
[04:55] <philuk86> this should be your home and uuid e0e4a553
[04:56] <philuk86> it cant install grub if you dont have a partition on your disk with the correct uuid
[04:56] <philuk86> paste the output for md1 lets check that one
[04:57] <booh> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16338124/
[04:57] <booh> look in madm.conf, the sub-uuid
[04:58] <philuk86> do they match?
[04:58] <philuk86> ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
[04:59] <philuk86> do you see your root partition e39994d5-a3c6-4371-8b5b-822c6816ea36?
[05:00] <booh> no
[05:00] <booh> no md partitions their.
[05:00] <booh> there.
[05:00] <philuk86> in here .. ls -l /dev/disk/by-partuuid/
[05:00] <philuk86> ?
[05:02] <booh> no
[05:02] <philuk86> ok i think this is the problem then
[05:02] <booh> no md partitions there
[05:02] <philuk86> none?
[05:02] <booh> none
[05:03] <booh> in fstab, there are sub-uuid also...
[05:03] <booh> and they are good
[05:03] <philuk86> they match ?
[05:04] <booh> yes... the sub ones
[05:04] <philuk86> sub?
[05:04] <booh> sorry I am so tired...
[05:04] <booh> in fstab it's the md ones
[05:05] <philuk86> but when i compare your fstab and the ones in the mdadmin output they are not the same
[05:07] <booh> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16338315/   <--- their in blkid
[05:12] <philuk86> if the system doesnt boot how are you logged in?
[05:13] <booh> I didn't reboot
[05:13] <booh> I didn't reboot since I do the dist-upgrade
[05:13] <philuk86> oh
[05:13] <booh> 7 packages didn't installed...
[05:14] <booh> I just do a dist-upgrade from 14.04 to 14.04...
[05:14] <philuk86> im not sure if the partition with the correct uuid exists or grub doesnt see it properly
[05:17] <philuk86> booh try reboot, you can always mount it with a livecd to try and reinstall grub within a chroot
[05:23] <booh> uuid in mdadm and blkid uuid are the same.
[05:23] <philuk86> booh: did you see this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1681190&page=3
[05:23] <booh> uuid in fstab and blkid md uuid are the same.
[05:24] <booh> no didn't see it.
[05:24] <philuk86> btw grub will see ext4 as ext2
[05:24] <booh> ok
[05:24] <philuk86> booh: that topic sounds similar to yours
[05:24] <booh> yes I saw an error with md/0
[05:25] <booh> I didn't reboot yet ;-)
[05:25] <wyoung> ext4 can be mounted as ext2 (just without the extra features that ext4 provides such as journalling and probably extended attributes and ACLs)
[05:25] <wyoung> not sure about the latter though
[05:25] <wyoung> Lipp! The thing that people don't like me to give them
[05:26] <philuk86> booh: ok well check the thread
[05:28] <philuk86> booh: your brave to use software raid
[05:29] <booh> raid1
[05:29] <booh> First time I have problems
[05:29] <booh> the problem is not the raid but the bad update of ubuntu
[05:30] <philuk86> you dont need to use dist-upgrade
[05:31] <booh> I read the thread but... don't know what to do exactly
[05:31] <booh> it's very old you know
[05:32] <philuk86> booh: in general i would recommend putting /boot on a seperate partition
[05:34] <philuk86> booh: there is a gui app called disk repair https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[05:34] <philuk86> booh: you can install that and give it a try
[05:48] <c0nfuseki> sorry if this is in the wrong place, but i have just come back to my computer and see that i have been booted from channels for 'join flooding'. i have no idea what is going on.
[05:48] <booh> strange... reboot works normaly.
[05:49] <nchambers> c0nfuseki, it just means your client was randomly disconnecting and reconnecting very quickly
[05:49] <c0nfuseki> you man like rebooting the computer?
[05:49] <nchambers> no
[05:50] <c0nfuseki> thank you for replying. from some of the messages i recieved -- it's like as if i mortally offended someone
[05:50] <nchambers> its very annoying when you let your client do that
[05:53] <glitchd> hello all
[05:53] <c0nfuseki> i am using xchat... so here would be some setting to prevent rejoining?
[05:53] <glitchd> having a weird problem tonight
[05:53] <nchambers> Don't use xchat
[05:53] <nchambers> use hexchat
[05:53] <glitchd> plugged in hdmi then sound went nuts
[05:54] <glitchd> i lost sound from speakers, but it still works in headphones
[05:54] <glitchd> ive already removed and reinstalled alsa and pulseaudio
[05:55] <glitchd> when i remove pulse, audio plays thru both regardless of if headphones are plugged in or not
[05:55] <glitchd> when i reinstall pulse, audio only plays through headphones
[05:55] <glitchd> no sound through speakers when headphones are removed
[05:56] <glitchd> anyone have any possible insight as to why this is happening or how to fix it?
[05:57] <booh> How to remove a spare drive in mdadm?
[05:58] <cpaelzer> glitchd: whenever pulseaudio failed me I was usually able to reconf on the fly with pavucontrol - maybe it can help you as well

[05:59] <glitchd> cpaelzer, pavucontrol is not helping..
[06:00] <cpaelzer> :-/
[06:00] <glitchd> cpaelzer, my thoughs exactly
[06:00] <glitchd> thoughts*
[06:01] <cpaelzer> glitchd: any success with the different profiles in the pavucontrol "Configuration" Tab ?
[06:01] <EriC^^> glitchd: did you try settings > sound?
[06:01] <cpaelzer> I've had a few cases where I just had the wrong profile there
[06:02] <glitchd> cpaelzer, nope=(
[06:03] <cpaelzer> Clearly EriC^^ s advise to run through your desktops system sound config can be good as well, but I use KDE which rarley somebody else does so no experience to share there
[06:03] <cpaelzer> booh: there is a --remove in mdadm, check its manpage for details on it
[06:04] <glitchd> EriC^^, i dont have that menu option..
[06:04] <cpaelzer> booh: but its should just be "mdadm <array> --remove <spare>"
[06:04] <EriC^^> glitchd: which de are you using?
[06:04] <glitchd> EriC^^, xubuntu 15.10
[06:05] <EriC^^> glitchd: try multimedia > volume control
[06:08] <glitchd> EriC^^, yes that is there, pulseaudio volume control and gnome alsa mixer
[06:08] <glitchd> pulseaudio volume control shows that something is playing with the notification bars, but there is no audio coming out of the speakers
[06:09] <glitchd> *volume level bars..?
[06:09] <EriC^^> try to press ctrl+alt+f1 and login
[06:09] <EriC^^> alt+f7 brings you back to the gui
[06:11] <glitchd> EriC^^, why would i log into an extra tty?
[06:22] <mrr411> any one here?
[06:22] <c0nfuseki> i am
[06:22] <mrr411> I installed new ubuntu 16.4 then inserted new graphix card
[06:23] <mrr411> getting the system is running low graphix mode
[06:23] <mrr411> any idea how to install the right driver from the terminal
[06:23] <mrr411> I can get to that but not into ubuntu
[06:23] <mrr411> i tried reinstalling gdm like google searches sugested but that did not help
[06:24] <hateball> mrr411: What card are you using?
[06:24] <mrr411> its an AMD
[06:24] <hateball> mrr411: And previously?
[06:24] <mrr411> dont reamember the exact card right now
[06:24] <mrr411> motherboard
[06:25] <mrr411> wsa using motherboard graphix
[06:25] <mrr411> the card is compatable i was using it before with 14 and stuff just had to do fresh nstalle
[06:26] <mrr411> install
[06:26] <hateball> mrr411: if you run "ubuntu-drivers devices" does that show the card?
[06:26] <mrr411> how do i run that
[06:26] <hateball> mrr411: also, "lspci |grep VGA" will give the exact card model
[06:26] <glitchd> welp im back again..
[06:26] <hateball> mrr411: run in a terminal
[06:27] <kiran_> I love hexchats,gives me the old linux mint feel
[06:27] <mrr411> so just sudo ubuntu-drives devices
[06:27] <glitchd> EriC^^, maybe this will shed some light on the issue, this is the output from "aplay -l"
[06:27] <glitchd> glitchd@Xubuntu1510:~$ aplay -l

[06:36] <hateball> mrr411: I know pretty much nothing about AMD gpus, but I am guessing you either have a defunct /etc/x11/xorg.conf (can be removed)
[06:37] <hateball> mrr411: or perhaps the module needed for the card is blacklisted for some reason
[06:37] <mrr411> there is a xserver-xor-vidio-mouceau - distro free builtin
[06:38] <mrr411> hateball! oh i have a gforce gt 630 !!!!!

[06:43] <glitchd1> sry for the spam everyone...wont happen again, definatly pressed buttons before i thought about it
[06:44] <dax> apologies for the over-zealous killbot. one's not generally supported to get removed from the entire network for forgetting to pastebin
[06:46] <glitchd1> cpaelzer, u still around?
[06:46] <max12345> hey there, my software updater is bugging me about updates. The package to be updated is something I actually would rather uninstall, how can I do this? (sorry, didn't see my message appear, did it get through?)
[06:47] <dax> max12345: (the message you just sent got through. any before then did not)
[06:47] <glitchd1> max12345, sudo apt-get remove --purge packagename
[06:47] <max12345> ty
[06:48] <glitchd1> max12345, np
[06:50] <max12345> (btw, the software updater could use a button for this) :)
[06:50] <glitchd1> can anyone help me sort out this sound problem im having? xubuntu 15.10..
[06:50] <lyze> max12345, Well … it's a updater not a uninstaller :P
[06:51] <kiran_> How do you install wine for ubuntu?
[06:51] <glitchd1> kiran_, software center
[06:51] <lyze> !info wine | kiran_
[06:51] <max12345> lyze: that's true but the "rejecting an update" could use more differentiation than "delay for now".
[06:51] <glitchd1> im only getting sound through my headphones and not my speakers, can someone help me fix this?
[06:52] <kiran_> is it configure wine?
[06:52] <max12345> glitchd1: do you use pavucontrol?
[06:53] <max12345> it's the default sound manager if iirc
[06:53] <glitchd1> kiran_, you can install wine with the software center
[06:53] <kiran_> all that shows up is configure wine, is that it?
[06:53] <glitchd1> max12345, not specifically, but it is installed
[06:54] <glitchd1> kiran_, are u sure wine isnt already installed?
[06:56] <max12345> do you use some kind of usb thing with your headphones or do you use the standard audio jacks? the sound manager has a default audio output, if your system has trouble recognizing the usb thingy that might be your problem.
[06:58] <glitchd1> max12345, no everything is normal, meaning standard audio jacks, headphones, mic.
[07:00] <glitchd1> max12345, right now its playing but it thinks its coming from the headphone but the headphones are unplugged. if i plug them in, they work, but then unplugging them does not restore sound. i have to go into volume control and switch input to headphones(unplugged) to get the speakers to work.
[07:00] <cdidd> kernel upgrade broke nvidia drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-361/+bug/1574838
[07:00] <cpaelzer> glitchd1: I'm around again - but I was out of immediate ideas before
[07:01] <glitchd1> cpaelzer, right on, i got a short ban for spamming without thinking
[07:01] <cdidd> I don't understand how it's a thing. To not test such thing on a LTS distro.
[07:01] <glitchd1> cpaelzer, lol
[07:01] <glitchd1> cpaelzer, still trying to figure this out..
[07:02] <glitchd1> cpaelzer, right now i have sound playing thru the speakers, but it thinkis its coming from the headphone, which are unplugged, and if plug them in the remove them im stuck in the same situation again..
[07:05] <cpaelzer> glitchd: just use pastebinit to avoid spam next time
[07:05] <cdidd> Could someone please explain to me why this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-361/+bug/1574838 is not literally thousands upon thousands of comments?
[07:05] <cpaelzer> glitchd: what got you to the working speakers now=
[07:06] <cdidd> It's like latest kernel and current nvidia-361, it should be hundreds of thousands people affected.
[07:06] <Android> Command to upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 without running update-manager.
[07:06] <Android> Quick
[07:06] <glitchd> cpaelzer, just fudging with settings really, trying things left and right
[07:06] <cpaelzer> Android: do-release-upgrade ?
[07:07] <glitchd> cpaelzer, then i went into volume control and plugged in my headphones and it switched to headphones as the output, so then i unplugged them and it switch the speakers so i switched it back to headphones(unplugged) and sound started coming out of the speakers
[07:08] <glitchd> cpaelzer, but i have to do that each time i plug in and remove the headphones
[07:08] <cpaelzer> glitchd: so SW is currently set to "Headphone unplugged" and sound comes out of your speakers now
[07:08] <glitchd>  cpaelzer and really, thats a pain in the ass
[07:09] <glitchd> cpaelzer, yes.
[07:10] <cpaelzer> glitchd: long in the past with some weird headphones I had some success with changing sinks http://askubuntu.com/questions/71863/how-to-change-pulseaudio-sink-with-pacmd-set-default-sink-during-playback
[07:10] <Android> if I script some commands in a file with .sh format and run that without typing commands repetitively for a task, would that work?
[07:10] <cpaelzer> glitchd: it is essentially a more raw interface to what pavucontrol gives you

[07:10] <cdidd> how to tell dkms system to not remove/rebuild modules from old kernels?
[07:11] <cpaelzer> glitchd: but sometimes you might find something in there that helps to get it to use the right profile and sinks
[07:11] <fxrupr> glitchd: i always had problems with sound on trusty whenever plugging/unplugging headphones, my solution was from this dude > yktoo.com/en/software/indicator-sound-switcher
[07:12] <glitchd> cpaelzer, fxrupr all this happened tonight when i was trying to get audio to go thru my hdmi so i could watch a movie on kodi thru my tv and i havent been abel to figure out what happened
[07:12] <glitchd> this system has been running fine for a while now
[07:12] <glitchd> this is the first real problem ive had
[07:13] <fxrupr> glitchd: hmmm
[07:13] <glitchd> fxrupr, major hmmm...
[07:13] <glitchd> cpaelzer, did u check that link?
[07:14] <Android> if I script some commands in a file with .sh format and run that without typing commands repetitively for a task, would that work?
[07:14] <cpaelzer> glitchd: well it seems another way to change pulse audio profiles, could be a nice shortcut for you if you can't solve the root cause to switch between outputs
[07:16] <glitchd> cpaelzer, im just so lost on what it could be since everything was fine a few hours ago
[07:16] <glitchd> cpaelzer, then i had to plug in that damn hdmi cord
[07:16] <glitchd> cpaelzer, fml
[07:19] <Android> Just yes or no????

[07:30] <glitchd> cpaelzer, not going to 16.04 tho, gonna stay on 15.10
[07:30] <glitchd> cpaelzer, have a good nite=)
[07:34] <bqkashmir> hi all
[07:34] <radiotoubab> yo
[07:34] <Android> bqkashmir : you kashmiri?
[07:35] <bqkashmir> indeed, not very imaginative with the nick but I settled on it
[07:37] <goskydiving> good morning all :-)
[07:37] <Android> if I script some commands in a file with .sh format and run that without typing commands repetitively for a task, would that work?
[07:37] <Android> Anyone come on??
[07:39] <Myrkur> hi guys, I'm having quite a problem with my ubuntu installation...
[07:39] <Myrkur> I just installed it and after reboot all I can see is a flashing "_"
[07:39] <goskydiving> I need help dual-booting my computer. I cannot get it to boot to the ubuntu dvd. I have tried downloading another iso, and burning it on a different computer, and I still have the same problem. I also tried changing the boot order in my bios and it still ignores the dvd drive and just boots to windows
[07:40] <sgronblo> hello. any idea how to enable bluetooth on the ubuntu desktop login screen?
[07:43] <Android> goskydiving : Does your computer detects the OS ?
[07:43] <IonutVan_> goskydiving, sometimes there 2 places in bios where you have to select the boot drive. Perhaps you can just activate "Boot Selection Menu" during the boot time and select from there?
[07:43] <IonutVan_> there are*
[07:43] <sgronblo> this time i had to first log in with my guest user and then add the bluetooth keyboard and then log out and then my bluetooth keyboard can be used during login, but its a bit annoying
[07:43] <Android> if I script some commands in a file with .sh format and run that without typing commands repetitively for a task, would that work?
[07:45] <goskydiving> IonutVan_: I have been selecting the dvd drive from the boot selection menu and it still ignores the optical drive. Any other ideas? :-/
[07:45] <IonutVan_> goskydiving, try to see if you cd/dvd is bootable on a different machine or in a vmware/virtualbox perhaps?
[07:46] <goskydiving> Android: windows sees the files on the dvd when i view it, but my computer refuses to boot the dvd, and that's where my confusion is ... :-(
[07:47] <Myrkur> I only get a flashing _ at boot, isn't that a grub issue ?
[07:47] <goskydiving> IonutVan_: I'm going to try that. goodnight everyone
[07:54] <Android> Myrkur : Probably.
[07:54] <Android> Myrkur : If you have a live usb, try running from that.
[07:56] <Myrkur> Android: I just installed it with the live usb
[07:56] <Myrkur> could I repare grub from the live?
[07:57] <Android> Yes
[07:57] <Myrkur> Cool, will you help me to do so?
[07:58] <Donitzo> Can you remind me, was it possible to pick a desktop environment when installing ubuntu?
[07:58] <Donitzo> like in the debian installer
[07:58] <Android> re able to run live usb on that system.
[07:59] <Android> *Are
[07:59] <Android> *Are you
[07:59] <Donitzo> yes
[07:59] <Myrkur> ok Android well, don't ask me why but since I plugged my live usb the grub loaded
[08:00] <Donitzo> ah, nvm
[08:01] <Android> Donitzo : You have the option to reinstall the system. But that might erase your data on the disk for previous OS.
[08:01] <Android> I did the same a few weeks back.
[08:02] <Donitzo> The system isn't installed yet, but I'd prefer not to install Unity in the first place
[08:02] <Donitzo> That's the current desktop environment right?
[08:02] <Donitzo> much more prefer xfce
[08:05] <Android> You can simply do that after installing the OS for any environment.
[08:05] <Donitzo> Yes, but that is a lot of extra bloat on the system
[08:05] <Donitzo> if I can't deselect it
[08:05] <Myrkur> ok Android so grub only loads when I put my live usb...
[08:08] <Android> Myrkur : Could'nt get you completely. If you see the option for you OS on grub, just select that and try a reinstall.
[08:08] <Android> That works in most of the cases unless it is some hardware requirement issue.
[08:09] <Myrkur> yes but i'm afraid it uses the live grub...
[08:09] <ducasse> Donitzo: install from the server image, there you can select what desktop to install.
[08:09] <Myrkur> yeah could be...
[08:10] <Donitzo> thanks for the suggestion ducasse
[08:11] <Android> Myrkur : Just install the OS and state what happens.
[08:11] <Myrkur> ok
[08:11] <ducasse> Donitzo: no problem. you can also use the xubuntu image if xfce is what you want.
[08:12] <cicko> does fix for screen tearing for intel hd graphics by making a 20-intel.conf still work on ubuntu 16.04?
[08:16] <lotuspsychje> cicko: is this a clean install or upgrade?
[08:16] <cicko> clean install lotuspsychje
[08:16] <lotuspsychje> cicko: your system up to date also?
[08:17] <cicko> it is
[08:17] <lotuspsychje> cicko: liveusb mode also does the screen tearing?
[08:17] <cicko> lotuspsychje I've got this screen tearing on every ubuntu-based os, however this could be fixed by creating this file before
[08:18] <Takumo> So, does Xenial only ship with PHP ≥ 7.0 ?
[08:18] <lotuspsychje> cicko: perhaps making a new bug would be interesting for this
[08:18] <lotuspsychje> Takumo: yes, wich version do you need?
[08:19] <Takumo> lotuspsychje: ~> 5.6.0
[08:19] <lotuspsychje> Takumo: well its recommended to use package versions, meant for your specific ubuntu version, so better not mix
[08:19] <lotuspsychje> Takumo: so if you need lower php version, install a lower ubuntu version
[08:20] <cicko> lotuspsychje I have found another way to fix this, by autostarting compton, but there seems to be a delay, how to start program without a delay?
[08:20] <Takumo> lotuspsychje: I would if the whole job wasn't to "upgrade to latest verison of ubuntu"
[08:20] <lotuspsychje> cicko: im not familliar with compton, sorry
[08:21] <lotuspsychje> Takumo: what do you mean by that?
[08:21] <cicko> lotuspsychje I'm just wondering how to start any program immediately after booting
[08:21] <lotuspsychje> cicko: check systemd perhaps
[08:22] <cicko> lotuspsychje running that says: Trying to run as user instance, but $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set.
[08:23] <Myrkur> Android: i ran boot-repair which reinstalled grub and now everything's ok
[08:25] <Takumo> lotuspsychje: the job as agreed by the client was to replace their existing systems with new ones running xenial to be ready for next year when precise goes out of support
[08:26] <lotuspsychje> Takumo: how about php version from 14.04?
[08:26] <Takumo> if I can get it installed on xenial, but can't really tell the client that we're now not upgrading to xenial after they've signed off the job to upgrade to xenial.
[08:28] <lotuspsychje> Takumo: right, and whats the reason you cant work with php7 ?
[08:29] <Takumo> lotuspsychje: the application we're running for the client doesn't function correctly under PHP 7 :/
[08:29] <Takumo> and its a vendored package
[08:29] <lotuspsychje> Takumo: perhaps talk to the #ubuntu-server channel about it, they might know a workaround for this
[08:30] <lotuspsychje> !pinning | Takumo another way/use at own risk
[08:30] <Takumo> k

[08:45] <WoodyPC> What is a better irc chat to use? I am using chatzilla plugin for Firefox.
[08:45] <DrRipple> Magical
[08:46] <lotuspsychje> WoodyPC: irssi, hexchat,weechat
[08:46] <WoodyPC> What do yall use?
[08:46] <Noob> How i can check how much more mkfs.ext4 takes time? Some kind of indicator
[08:47] <WoodyPC> going to check those now.
[08:47] <insidious> Anyone know the reason why after adding the themes in usr/share/theme it doesn't show the themes in appearence?
[08:47] <Noob> Now it has done almost 1h 30min and 16gb usb stick
[08:47] <de-facto> WoodyPC id recomment #hexchat its really nice
[08:48] <lotuspsychje> insidious: you can use unity-tweak-tool to manage themes if you like
[08:48] <lotuspsychje> !themes | insidious
[08:48] <insidious> do i have to install that?
[08:48] <lotuspsychje> insidious: yes
[08:49] <AlanJenkins> hey guys, I am trying to secure a server against the https drown attack, my understanding of Drown is that if older encryption methods are turned off the server should be secure yet despite only having TLS1.2 enabled the server I am trying to secure is still weak. Anyone have any experience with this?
[08:49] <de-facto> insidious press Alt + F2 enter "r" hit enter, then fire up tweak tool
[08:49] <lotuspsychje> AlanJenkins: perhaps the #ubuntu-server channel can advise you on it?
[08:49] <insidious> ok ill try it
[08:49] <AlanJenkins> lotuspsychje: ok mate will try there
[08:50] <AlanJenkins> thanks
[08:50] <lotuspsychje> AlanJenkins: also make sure your server is always up to date
[08:50] <lotuspsychje> !usn | AlanJenkins and recent security flaws here
[08:50] <de-facto> insidious well thats at least how it works under gnome, not sure how to reload unity though (you might need to relogin)
[08:52] <AlanJenkins> server is up to date as far as it can be for trusty
[08:53] <AlanJenkins> so short of making my own packages there are no updates
[08:53] <de-facto> AlanJenkins you can fire https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ at your server to get more info if you like
[08:54] <insidious> that didn't work
[08:54] <k1l> AlanJenkins: do you have a a CVE number for that security issue?
[08:55] <Lloyd___> Hi! I recently upgraded to 16.04 and am having an unfixable (so far) problem with my audio not working. I've tried a whole bunch of things to no avail. Can someone help shed some light on this?
[08:55] <de-facto> insidious which desktop environment do you use there?
[08:55] <insidious> xfce
[08:57] <de-facto> insidious hmm i dont have much experience with that but maybe you can ask in #xubuntu about restarting XFCE (i guess it may be needed for the new themes to show up). also make sure their layout structure is like the others in that dir and the version is supported
[08:57] <Android> Hey after "do-release-upgrade". Doesn't installation automatically starts?
[08:57] <insidious> restarting xfce?
[08:57] <EriC^^> Android: it downloads the sources.list and some stuff and asks if you want to continue
[08:58] <AlanJenkins> k1l: CVE-2016-0800
[08:58] <de-facto> Lloyd___ have you tired fiddling with pavcontrol and alsamixer? looked for the drivers in dmesg and such?
[08:58] <Android> It downloaded the OS files (1200 MB) approx.
[08:58] <AlanJenkins> but trusty is apparently not weak yet https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html says the server is
[08:58] <EriC^^> Android: that sounds about right
[08:58] <AlanJenkins> it is running nginx, and is fully up to date
[08:58] <ikonia> AlanJenkins: how is it weak ?
[08:58] <EriC^^> Android: it should unpack them and configure too
[08:59] <ikonia> AlanJenkins: just being "up to date" is not enough, it has to be configured correctly too
[08:59] <k1l> AlanJenkins: ubuntu servers are not affected: https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2016/CVE-2016-0800.html
[08:59] <EriC^^> Android: and probably ask you a bunch of config questions
[08:59] <AlanJenkins> ikonia: it has been configured too
[08:59] <AlanJenkins> https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=beta.uneekclothing.com&hideResults=on
[08:59] <Lloyd___> I've gone into the alsamixer and made sure everything is up, as well as gone into the sound settings to check if it picks up th sound card. Any suggestions?
[08:59] <k1l> AlanJenkins: see the comment from the security team: mdeslaur> openssl in Ubuntu is compiled with no-ssl2
[08:59] <k1l> AlanJenkins: so you are not using a ubuntu server?
[08:59] <ikonia> AlanJenkins: so what is it saying is weak then - how is it doing the test
[09:00] <lotuspsychje> !sound | Lloyd___
[09:00] <de-facto> AlanJenkins you also can try to develop a secure config with https://mozilla.github.io/server-side-tls/ssl-config-generator/   but make a backup of your config dir before
[09:00] <Android> But there were some errors watch this http://pastebin.com/iSsxN5Kq
[09:00] <WoodyPC> hey yall, You know in Windows there is: accounts\username\apdata...etc...etc... right. Well in Ubuntu, What is the equivalent?
[09:00] <AlanJenkins> de-facto: I did just that yet it is still showing as vulnerable using that test
[09:00] <AlanJenkins> it is doing my head in =/
[09:00] <ikonia> AlanJenkins: what is it flagging as open
[09:01] <lotuspsychje> WoodyPC: /home/your-user
[09:01] <EriC^^> Android: press enter
[09:01] <Android> it exits
[09:01] <AlanJenkins> only red on the page other than the bit saying that it is vulnerable against drown is this: Vulnerable (same key with SSL v2) <- does it want me to get a new SSL cert or?
[09:01] <EriC^^> Android: aha try sudo dpkg --configure -a
[09:01] <EriC^^> Android: and sudo apt-get -f install
[09:01] <lotuspsychje> WoodyPC: ctrl+h to show hidden files in your /home folder
[09:02] <ikonia> AlanJenkins: how did you make your certificate ?
[09:02] <WoodyPC> lotuspsychje: That was next question.
[09:02] <WoodyPC> lotuspsychje: How do I delete hidden files?
[09:03] <AlanJenkins> ikonia: I believe it was generated by Plesk when someone else setup the server
[09:03] <lotuspsychje> WoodyPC: can you tell us first whats your end goal?
[09:03] <de-facto> AlanJenkins did you try the strict settings on that generator? legacy may include some insecure settings afaik
[09:03] <k1l> AlanJenkins: what ubuntu is on that machine?
[09:03] <AlanJenkins> k1l: trusty
[09:03] <sexytime> is there a list of bloatware out there that i could remove from an ubuntu server installation?
[09:03] <AlanJenkins> aka 14.04
[09:03] <Android> Errors encountered with squid3. Should I run "sudo apt-get -f install" now.
[09:03] <k1l> AlanJenkins: the CVE you posted doesnt affect ubuntu since the packages for openssl are not compiled to support that attack
[09:03] <EriC^^> Android: yeah
[09:04] <ikonia> AlanJenkins: plesk.....there is your answer there
[09:04] <ikonia> then
[09:04] <k1l> AlanJenkins: make sure "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" got all packages intsalled
[09:04] <lotuspsychje> sexytime: what are you trying to uninstall exactly?
[09:04] <AlanJenkins> ikonia: yes I know but I am just securing it for someone else (removing that is not an option for them as they are not techy)
[09:04] <sexytime> lotuspsychje, well say i got a new box. and i installed ubuntu server on it. i would like to remove everything that i wont be using the server for. in this case. all im going to run in this box is a nodejs server
[09:05] <ikonia> AlanJenkins: then you'll need to work around it
[09:05] <sexytime> keeping this in mind. how would you recommend i go about removing the stuff i do not care for
[09:05] <insidious> de-factso: thanks i had  check the layout and version got other ones to work with the same file structure.
[09:05] <AlanJenkins> and they will not take the fact that the libs used by ubuntu are not vulnerable, they will keep moaning until https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html gives a decent rating
[09:05] <WoodyPC> lotuspsychje: Sure. I am playing some games that save data under you username and if you want to start the game over, (as if you have never played), You have to delete the data file for that game.
[09:05] <Android> Does "sudo apt-get -f install" installs the failed software updates??
[09:05] <AlanJenkins> guessing I should try regen the SSL certs manually next
[09:05] <de-facto> insidious glad to hear :)
[09:05] <lotuspsychje> sexytime: i think ubuntu server is already pretty vanilla to start with, buildup what you really need
[09:06] <sexytime> lotuspsychje, ah ok thanks i just needed that confirmation
[09:06] <AlanJenkins> as as far as I can tell nginx and config + openssl should be fine
[09:06] <Android> Or failed software installations?
[09:06] <Noob> Is it normal that mkfs.ext4 is making lot of lines with y char? 1h 47min now doing that format on usb 16gb.
[09:06] <lotuspsychje> sexytime: see also the #ubuntu-server channel
[09:06] <EriC^^> Noob: no, that sounds like somehow the program "yes" is running
[09:06] <de-facto> sexytime just do the install itself as minimal as you can, then add stuff as you need it (thats always a good strategy imho ;)
[09:06] <Android> By the way, done. Now?
[09:07] <EriC^^> Noob: did you run mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX && yes ?
[09:07] <akik> sexytime: we are fortunate that bloatware which i think you refer to from windows-land does not exist in ubuntu
[09:07] <sexytime> de-facto, i havent installed ubuntu servers before. im assuming during the installing it will ask me about additional stuff i want and i can just untick them?
[09:07] <EriC^^> Noob: is this from a script?
[09:07] <sexytime> akik haha right-o
[09:07] <Android> By the way, done. Now?
[09:07] <Noob> IT asked me something and i wrote yes to it
[09:08] <lotuspsychje> WoodyPC: sure, you can find saved games files in your /home hidden dirs
[09:08] <EriC^^> Noob: maybe it just asked you that it's done or something?
[09:09] <de-facto> sexytime yeah just install sshd and add everything else later maybe? at least then you know what you install and where to look for configs. Also you might want to scan it with nmap and look with "sudo netstat -tulpn" so you are sure you know everything listening
[09:09] <EriC^^> Noob: try to press shift+home and then go down a bit and see what it asked and paste here if possible
[09:09] <Android> Now, how do I install it after squid3 has been installed.
[09:09] <akik> Noob: not sure what you did but there's a command 'yes' which outputs a string until you stop it. e.g. "yes y"
[09:10] <R0binh00d> Trying to figure out if I should go for Xubuntu or Mate Desktop. Any quick pointers? or personal view points?
[09:10] <R0binh00d> thanks
[09:10] <Noob> No. It was just starting. Asking something with hmm..shift home wont work
[09:10] <akik> Noob: mkfs should display its progress on screen as it goes
[09:10] <EriC^^> Noob: when it asked you did you have a shell prompt? like user@something:/$
[09:10] <WoodyPC> lotuspsychje: They are in my Downloads/Games directory. Under each game folder
[09:10] <sexytime> de-facto, im assuming in the installer there is option to untick sshd ?
[09:11] <sexytime> in the installer of the ubuntu server i mean
[09:11] <lotuspsychje> R0binh00d: the users choice really
[09:11] <Noob> I will close it. I can do it again. Lets try again wait
[09:11] <lotuspsychje> R0binh00d: ask yourself what flavor you really need?
[09:11] <sexytime> mango
[09:11] <EriC^^> Noob: ok try ctrl+c
[09:11] <de-facto> sexytime i guess so but you need some way to access it later (the most secure/common would be sshd)
[09:11] <R0binh00d> lotuspsychje, yeah you are right. Which one do you use by the way?
[09:11] <sexytime> de-facto, i think i will keep sshd
[09:11] <lotuspsychje> R0binh00d: 16.04 64bit with unity
[09:12] <Android> EriC^^ : Done. Now?
[09:12] <lotuspsychje> R0binh00d: xubuntu and mate are lighter in use
[09:12] <Android> How to install?
[09:12] <R0binh00d> So if you just booted your system, and nothing else is running, how much RAM would be in use?
[09:12] <EriC^^> Android: try dpkg -l | grep -v ^ii | nc termbin.com 9999
[09:12] <Noob> There isnt any partition..maybe i have to add partition first
[09:12] <EriC^^> Android: install what?
[09:13] <Android> 16.04
[09:13] <EriC^^> Noob: what did you run it on earlier?
[09:13] <Noob> If 16 gb is taking too long
[09:13] <lotuspsychje> R0binh00d: unity eats more ram then xfce, how much ram do you have?
[09:13] <EriC^^> Noob: it shouldn't take too long, just like 30secs or so
[09:13] <WoodyPC> lotuspsychje: So, How do delete these types of directories? They are hidden and read/only. Remember, these are games, They don't have anything to do with changing Ubuntu or anything serious.
[09:14] <Noob> I just took new usb 16 gb and wanted to format it
[09:14] <de-facto> Noob are you in gparted doing this?
[09:14] <EriC^^> Noob: do it from gparted ^
[09:14] <Noob> Terminal..not in gparted
[09:14] <Android> http://termbin.com/yiw8
[09:14] <EriC^^> Noob: create a fresh partition table, then make 1 16gb partition, and format it
[09:14] <Android> Now what's this?
[09:14] <lotuspsychje> WoodyPC: in your /home folder cant harm, but make sure you dont delete config files instead of savedgames files
[09:14] <EriC^^> Noob: ok, use gdisk/fdisk cfdisk/cgdisk
[09:14] <Android> EriC^^ : Now what's this?
[09:15] <lotuspsychje> WoodyPC: better lookup your specific game, how its stores its files exactly first
[09:15] <EriC^^> Android: those are packages that have been removed but the configuration files are still there, doesn't seem to be any unconfigured or half-installed ones though
[09:15] <de-facto> Noob it shouldnt take hours, more like seconds or minutes even if the usb is slow. be carefull though you choose the correct device, i guess you dont want to format your hdd accidently...
[09:16] <EriC^^> Android: the install seems ok
[09:16] <Android> Now, installed?
[09:16] <EriC^^> Android: yes type lsb_release -a
[09:17] <Ange7> hey
[09:17] <django_> whats the best irc client
[09:17] <Ange7> i have a problem to upgrade my ubuntu :
[09:17] <Ange7> dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/srvadmin-hapi_8.3.0-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
[09:17] <Ange7>  subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 127
[09:17] <Noob> Iwhat is good partition table type? Msdos?
[09:17] <lotuspsychje> django_: users choice really
[09:17] <EriC^^> django_: gui there's hexchat xchat, cli there's irssi weechat are most common
[09:17] <de-facto> django_ "the best" depends on your needs i guess
[09:17] <Ange7> how can i fix it ?
[09:17] <EriC^^> Noob: msdos is ok
[09:18] <Spookan> django_: I use Xchat and its ok. Try it out.
[09:18] <Lloyd___> de-facto: I have installed aoss, alsaplayer, mpg321 and still no sound.
[09:18] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: did you add ppa's of any kind?
[09:18] <R0binh00d> lotuspsychje, I have a 8 gigs, another one with 16 gigs, and one with 4 gigs ... I want to keep just one DE on alll
[09:18] <lotuspsychje> R0binh00d: thats plenty! use any DE you want :p
[09:18] <Ange7> lotuspsychje: huh ? i don't know ?
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: tell us the full story please
[09:19] <Android> Cool, doesn't seems to be a change in environment though. Requires restart?
[09:19] <R0binh00d> lol
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> !details | Ange7
[09:19] <Ange7> i try to do upgrade of my server and i have one error during upgrade,
[09:19] <de-facto> Lloyd___ hmm so are you sure you got drivers for your sound device working? enabled the correct channels in alsamixer (sometimes they are muted or so)? played with pavcontrol for pulse audio?
[09:19] <Ange7> so i can't upgrade my server
[09:19] <Ange7> i don't know why
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: wich server version to wich?
[09:20] <Ange7> ubuntu 14.04 server
[09:20] <lotuspsychje> !ltsupgrade | Ange7
[09:20] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: not advised yet to upgrade
[09:20] <Noob> Ok when this is ready i will use dd to copy/clone old usb stick to this new one. I have to umount it first
[09:20] <Ange7> i just make : apt update && apt upgrade
[09:20] <Lloyd___> de-facto I have enabled all the channels in alsamixer. What command should I use to check if the correct sound driver is installed
[09:20] <Ange7> now i have one error
[09:21] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: oh, you have server 14.04 and want to update your packages?
[09:21] <EriC^^> Noob: if you're using dd you don't need to make a partition table or anything first, dd will copy everything
[09:21] <Ange7> yes
[09:21] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: can you pastebin the full output of your update & upgrade command?
[09:21] <Ange7> sure
[09:22] <de-facto> Lloyd___ you can look for messages about sound devices in "dmesg" but i guess if you see your channels in alsamixer you already have drivers for it then
[09:22] <Noob> Lol then i did this whole thing for nothing. Well i learn something new :)
[09:22] <EriC^^> Noob: true :)
[09:23] <Ange7> lotuspsychje: http://pastebin.com/hQdPjFBQ
[09:23] <WoodyPC> lotuspsychje: I opened my Downloads/Games/"gamename" and used ctrl h and I can see the protected "savegame" directory. In my game help file it says to delete this folder. I need to know the terminal command to delete a hidden/readonly file?
[09:24] <Lloyd___> de-facto, I have looked at dmesg and it picks up the sound devices.
[09:24] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: think you have ppa's added in there...
[09:25] <de-facto> Lloyd___ ok then its some kind of config issue i guess
[09:25] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: check your sources.list and purge ppa's first before you update
[09:25] <Ange7> How can i do this ?
[09:25] <lotuspsychje> !sources | Ange7
[09:25] <Ange7> (i don't know what is ppa)
[09:25] <lotuspsychje> !ppapurge | Ange7
[09:25] <tothbbalint> Hello! I would like to ask a question about apache, I am on Ubuntu 15.04. I would like to experiment with some php project I have just cloned from Github. and it would need to generate some .xls files, but it says it has a file write permission error. I am not too familiar with linux file permissions, could you please give me some help what are the important aspects in this situation?
[09:26] <lotuspsychje> !eol | tothbbalint
[09:26] <lotuspsychje> tothbbalint: install a supported ubuntu version from topic please
[09:26] <Lloyd___> de-facto what do you suggest? The issue was from a clean install of Ubuntu 16.04. So I think another fresh install won't really fix anything.
[09:27] <Android> Anybody knows for how to expand partition without using live usb?
[09:27] <Android> partition for /home
[09:27] <Ange7> lotuspsychje: my /etc/apt/sources.list : http://pastebin.com/SFk8RpTq
[09:28] <tothbbalint> lotuspsychje thank you, I will do that, but regardless of that, could someone please help me solve this?
[09:28] <EriC^^> Android: pastebin your sudo parted -l output
[09:28] <Ange7> lotuspsychje: and in my source.list.d/ i have multiple file which contains totaly : http://pastebin.com/hDintbMa
[09:29] <de-facto> Lloyd___ not really sure i cant use my internet browser from here right now, in your place id try to google about your sound chip and play with alsamixer and pavcontrol
[09:29] <Lloyd___> de-facto Ok cool I'll keep looking. Thanks
[09:30] <Ange7> lotuspsychje: http://pastebin.com/td1emeXG
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: you should know yourself wich ppa's youve added right, think mariadb and such?
[09:30] <Android> Take a look http://pastebin.com/R6sR6hFY .
[09:31] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: this package seems not in official repos neither srvadmin-hapi
[09:31] <Android> But it's on dual boot with wind10
[09:31] <Ange7> lotuspsychje: mariadb, rethinkdb, dell.linux,
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> Ange7: remove all those ppa's first the sudo apt update
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> then
[09:32] <Ange7> linux.dell.com.sources.list       logentries.list.save       newrelic.list                ondrej-php5-5_6-trusty.list.save  puppetlabs-pc1.list       rethinkdb.list.save

[09:32] <EriC^^> !pastebin | Ange7
[09:32] <Ange7> lotuspsychje: i can't remove ppa ? :x
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> !ppapurge | Ange7
[09:32] <EriC^^> Android: how big is your home currently?
[09:33] <Android> 24.4 GB
[09:33] <Android> Sorry, that's for contents
[09:34] <Ange7> can't install ppa-purge cause try to upgrade srvadmin-hapi
[09:34] <EriC^^> Android: what about size?
[09:34] <EriC^^> Android: try df -h /home
[09:34] <Android> free space 2.9 GB approx.
[09:35] <Android> 29 GB
[09:35] <EriC^^> so it's about 28gb
[09:35] <Android> ya
[09:35] <EriC^^> Android: ok, i guess it's /dev/sda7 then
[09:35] <EriC^^> i think you're going to have to do it from a live usb, after backing up your stuff
[09:36] <EriC^^> Android: you need to shrink /dev/sda6 a little and move /home (sda7) back a little
[09:37] <EriC^^> wait a sec
[09:37] <EriC^^> Android: there's something very odd about your partitions
[09:37] <EriC^^> line number 14, 340-341 for swap1, then 492 to 500 for swap2
[09:37] <EriC^^> there's like 150gb space that isn't allocated
[09:37] <Ange7> lotuspsychje: how can i get the ppa name ?
[09:38] <EriC^^> Android: if you delete swap1, you could extend /home and have the 150gb
[09:38] <Android> But, /home is a subdirectory of /. Then, how is it possible.
[09:38] <Android> Means separate partitions for them.
[09:38] <WoodyPC> I need to be able to delete a "hidden/read only directory in my downloads/games directory. I used ctrl h to see it, but it is protected. Using Terminal: How do I delete this 1 directory?
[09:39] <EriC^^> Android: home is on a separate partition, it's just mounted under the other filesystem "/"
[09:39] <EriC^^> Android: if you extend /home 's partition then it'll have that much more space
[09:40] <Android> using GParted
[09:40] <Android> But there is a problem
[09:40] <EriC^^> Android: wait dont do it from a live system
[09:40] <Android> Then, use live usb?
[09:41] <EriC^^> Android: you should back up first just in case
[09:41] <EriC^^> yeah
[09:41] <EriC^^> you could do it from a live session (not using gparted though) but the backup part is essential here
[09:41] <Android> Sorry, didn't got that. That's why I'm here.
[09:41] <Tegu> modifying partitions is somewhat risky (especially shrinkin but that's not the case here)
[09:41] <EriC^^> backup your stuff in /home to somewhere else and then do it
[09:42] <EriC^^> Android: can you back it up to one of the other partitions you have? or another hdd maybe?
[09:42] <TikityTik> i'm having issues of having firefox freezing up on ubuntu
[09:42] <TikityTik> where the window doesn't respond at all
[09:42] <Android> Ok, I'm trying.
[09:42] <EriC^^> TikityTik: try running firefox from a terminal to get some feedback
[09:43] <ozberk> hi guys need help  about nvdia drivers I coudn't install it and to be honest  I have no damn idea about why
[09:43] <EriC^^> ozberk: what'd you try and what happened
[09:44] <ozberk> EriC^^, I tried to install it with standart driver installer in ubuntu yet when I click the Nvdia driver it rejected the option and throw it back to the X.Org driver option somehow
[09:45] <TikityTik> EriC^^, how? Do I have to use -g?
[09:45] <EriC^^> TikityTik: just type firefox in a terminal
[09:45] <EriC^^> TikityTik: ah nevermind, seems not to give output anymore
[09:45] <ozberk> afret that I tried to install it manually and it says too many technical details about the nouveaou driver then cancel the installation
[09:46] <EriC^^> TikityTik: try firefox -jsconsole
[09:47] <EriC^^> ozberk: try sudo ubuntu-drivers devices autoinstall
[09:47] <TikityTik> EriC^^, what should I look for?
[09:48] <EriC^^> TikityTik: any kind of errors, has it frozen yet?
[09:49] <ozberk> EriC^^, what should I do
[09:49] <TikityTik> yeah. 404 not found for some images
[09:49] <TikityTik> and some warnings
[09:51] <EriC^^> ozberk: let it install the recommended one
[09:53] <ozberk> EriC^^, I don't belive I can explain myself clear here. I tried to install recommended one but when I click the reccomended driver it's wait a while then back to the X.Org driver like nothing happened
[09:54] <ozberk> EriC^^, I can't even click the install button
[09:54] <EriC^^> ozberk: try from the terminal to see any errors
[09:54] <EriC^^> sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
[09:56] <ozberk> EriC^^, I tried it downloaded a zip file from Nvdia and excract it but then the installation app told me thet it can't do the operation while the GDM is still running. I tried to run with ctrl+alt+F1 and then it worked untill it gave me another error about the nouveaou driver
[09:56] <de-facto> aaw
[09:57] <ozberk> there should be an error log yet I have no idea where it is
[09:57] <EriC^^> ozberk: try the ubuntu one in the repos first
[09:57] <EriC^^> try the command above it should say any errors
[09:57] <ozberk> EriC^^, what do you mean
[09:59] <EriC^^> ozberk: open a terminal and type sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
[10:00] <ozberk> EriC^^, let me try
[10:00] <daniel__> Hello, I am on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, I am trying to upgrade to 16.04LTS, when I do update-manager -d I get the upgrade option to 16.04 but when the banner for the upgrade shows up it says it is 16.04 development release? Isn't the final release out yet?
[10:01] <ozberk> EriC^^, it gives me some errors but they are accutaly Turkish. I'll make a pastebin file then I will translate them for you ok ?
[10:01] <daniel__> I tried different official mirrors to no avail
[10:01] <ozberk> EriC^^, give me a minute
[10:02] <EriC^^> ozberk: type LANG=C sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
[10:02] <EriC^^> it'll say them in english
[10:02] <ozberk> EriC^^, seriously there is a command like that exists oh God
[10:02] <Android> Hey, done with backup. Now guide me for shrinkage.
[10:02] <de-facto> !ltsupgrade | daniel__
[10:02] <Android> But there is a problem with GParted
[10:02] <daniel__> de-facto, thank you very much, I didn't know about that
[10:03] <Android> Eric^^
[10:03] <anonymous> Hello
[10:03] <ozberk> EriC^^, GOTCHA MAKİNG THE PASTEBİN FİLE FROM UBUNTU PASTEBİN LET ME DO THİS
[10:03] <EriC^^> Android: ok, you need to unmount /home, so you're going to have to do this from the tty logged in as root (if you absolutely can't get a live usb session going)
[10:03] <ozberk> whops sorry
[10:03] <anonymous> can anyody help me?
[10:03] <de-facto> daniel__ but 16.04 is released
[10:03] <daniel__> de-facto, yes, looks like that in the web site, but I wanted an upgrade instead of new install :P
[10:03] <Guest83844> anybody?
[10:04] <Android> That asks for login.
[10:04] <Android> What's exactly that?
[10:04] <ozberk> EriC^^, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/16344186/ here is the errors
[10:05] <Android> What to enter in login for tty4
[10:06] <EriC^^> Android: that's the login prompt, you're going to need to enable the root account temporarily to login to that, since root's home is just /root and you can have /home unmounted while using it
[10:06] <EriC^^> ozberk: ok
[10:07] <GoldCraft> so could i get some help please?
[10:07] <GoldCraft> somebodt
[10:08] <EriC^^> Android: open a terminal still in gui and type "sudo passwd"
[10:09] <EriC^^> ozberk: try LANG=C sudo apt-get install lib32gcc1
[10:09] <Android> Done
[10:09] <EriC^^> ozberk: which ubuntu are you using?
[10:09] <EriC^^> Android: ok set the root password
[10:09] <EriC^^> Android: you're using another pc right?
[10:09] <ozberk> EriC^^, ubuntu 16.04
[10:10] <ozberk> 64 bit
[10:10] <Android> another pc for what?
[10:10] <EriC^^> Android: one for chatting here one that you're doing this on?
[10:10] <EriC^^> or it's the same one?
[10:10] <EriC^^> ozberk: this seems like a fix http://askubuntu.com/questions/765448/ubuntu-16-04-nvidia-gpu-driver-can-not-use-proprietary-driver
[10:11] <EriC^^> give it a shot
[10:11] <Android> Oh ! You mean for unmounting /home ??
[10:11] <Android> Is it>
[10:11] <ozberk> hmmmmm
[10:12] <Android> I can use another pc if you say ?
[10:13] <EriC^^> Android: well you need to exit the gui and use tty1
[10:13] <Android> exit ? shut down?
[10:13] <EriC^^> you can use tty2 with irssi if you want
[10:14] <ozberk> EriC^^, ok I'm trying now I will let you know about the results but I have to say you helped me really well about this thank you. You also rescued me about this language problem with LANG=C
[10:14] <EriC^^> Android: have you ever used irssi?
[10:14] <Android> no.
[10:15] <dopstar> im using irssi now :)
[10:15] <EriC^^> Android: it's the same as other irc clients
[10:15] <vijaikumar> i like weechat :D
[10:15] <EriC^^> Android: press ctrl+alt+f2 then login as root, type apt-get install irssi then type irssi
[10:15] <EriC^^> when it loads type /server irc.freenode.net
[10:16] <Espada> Hi, how can i build qr code plz don't say search in google i don't wan't a payment service, and i want to be able to build customized qr codes. Thank you :)
[10:16] <EriC^^> then /join #ubuntu as usual, just use alt+1 alt+2 .. to switch between windows
[10:16] <TvL2386> as an update strategy, would one execute 'apt-get upgrade' or 'apt-get dist-upgrade'?
[10:17] <Espada> in the internet you have to pay for the numbers of scans for example or for how many time your code still avaible...
[10:17] <EriC^^> ozberk: ok, no problem
[10:17] <dopstar> TvL2386: dist-upgrade for your own box
[10:18] <de-facto> Espada google "github qr code library" this is not really ubuntu specific
[10:18] <dopstar> TvL2386: otherwise, still dist-upgrade (with caution), if you are nervous, rather do just update
[10:18] <OerHeks> Espada, gtqr or qreator
[10:18] <OerHeks> !inf qreator
[10:19] <OerHeks> !info qreator
[10:19] <de-facto> ah there you go, didnt know such a thing existed :P
[10:19] <TvL2386> thx dopstar
[10:20] <akik> Espada: there's also qrencode
[10:20] <Espada> i have installed qrencode

[10:20] <root___> Hey done
[10:20] <EriC^^> root___: ok, type /nick <newnick>
[10:21] <WoodyPC> Would like to know the Terminal command for deleting a hidden/read only directory?
[10:21] <EriC^^> root___: press ctrl+alt+f1, then login as root and type service lightdm stop
[10:21] <EriC^^> root___: press alt+f2 to get back to irssi
[10:21] <EriC^^> WoodyPC: rm -r .hiddendir
[10:21] <Espada> Thank you all
[10:22] <akik> WoodyPC: a hidden directory is just a directory with a dot in front. a read only directory is just something you don't have write permissions on
[10:22] <WoodyPC> got it. thanks
[10:22] <freekoray> hey guys
[10:22] <alex___> Hello, is there a way to find out, why my nfs4 mounts are mounted using 4.0 and not 4.1? (Xenial)

[10:26] <Twirl> Hi, anyone knows if there is a way to get the php 7.0 from the official repos?
[10:26] <Twirl> because i don't want to add an unofficial ppa just for that
[10:26] <OerHeks> Twirl in what ubuntu version?
[10:26] <EriC^^> Android: is ctrl+alt+f1 and f2 still working?
[10:26] <Android> After lightdm stop command. It automatically switched to GUI and I'm unable to get back (ctlr + alt + F2) does nothing.
[10:27] <Twirl> OerHeks: 14.x
[10:27] <Android> no
[10:28] <EriC^^> Android: that's odd
[10:28] <OerHeks> Twirl,  there is no official ppa, just the ondrej ppa which is widely accepted https://launchpad.net/~ondrej/+archive/ubuntu/php
[10:29] <Android> An error occured and even mouse pointer gone. What exactly lightdm stop does?
[10:29] <Twirl> OerHeks: alright then
[10:29] <EriC^^> Android: try to restart the pc, when it starts hold shift to get grub, then press e over ubuntu and add "text" after quiet splash
[10:29] <Twirl> OerHeks: ty
[10:29] <EriC^^> Android: it should stop the display manager that launches your gui session
[10:29] <EriC^^> Android: i guess we should have done service lightdm restart
[10:30] <EriC^^> Android: anyways restart and add "text" you should boot to a tty with no lightdm
[10:30] <EriC^^> then login as root and start irssi
[10:30] <ozberk> EriC^^, your article also solved a deadly problem about the steam which could not be installed for the dependecities issues like the nvdia drivers. I tried to runs sudo apt-get install steam again . now it is installing
[10:31] <EriC^^> ozberk: cool
[10:32] <GoldCraft> anyone know how to get amd driver i need to run this command each time to start steam ): LD_PRELOAD='/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6' DISPLAY=:0 steam
[10:32] <GoldCraft> i relly need the drivers so i dont need to do that
[10:32] <Ben64> have you tried the "Hardware Drivers" tool
[10:33] <GoldCraft> how
[10:33] <Ben64> what version of ubuntu are you on
[10:33] <GoldCraft> 16.04
[10:34] <Ben64> open the software center, its in one of the drop down menus
[10:34] <GoldCraft> and another thing is evry time i put my mouse into the laptop i cant move any prgorams it like freezes and when i unplug it evry thing works fine
[10:34] <Ben64> software sources -> additional drivers maybe
[10:34] <Android> Hey Eric^^ : I switched to another pc can you just repeat what to do after restart
[10:35] <zzmb> upgraded to 16.04 now audio stop working
[10:35] <Android> Please quick
[10:35] <EriC^^> Android: ok, hold shift, when you get grub press e over
[10:35] <EriC^^> ubuntu, and go to the line that says linux /boot/vmlinuz .. quiet splash and add "text"
[10:35] <EriC^^> then press ctrl+x to boot
[10:35] <GoldCraft> cant find anything with that name
[10:36] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> why is root Orc bad or anything root when not need is is a bad idea?
[10:36] <zzmb> it was working before upgrade
[10:36] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> irc*
[10:36] <EriC^^> BrAsS_mOnKeY: cause programs can have bugs/vulnerabilities and if you can get a program to do something you want with root privileges = gameover
[10:36] <EriC^^> BrAsS_mOnKeY: so when root isn't needed it's better not to use it
[10:37] <Ben64> GoldCraft: it's in there
[10:37] <EriC^^> less is more kind of thing
[10:37] <Ben64> k bye
[10:37] <Android> done
[10:37] <EriC^^> Android: ok, did it boot to tty1?
[10:37] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> meaning using sudo?
[10:38] <EriC^^> BrAsS_mOnKeY: same thing sudo is running a program as root usually
[10:38] <sexytime> if i have a user say user1. and i want to restrict this user to his home directory, i use chroot. how can i restrict this user to home directory + another directory that i can specify?
[10:38] <sexytime> i have root access to this box
[10:38] <Android> no
[10:39] <EriC^^> Android: it booted to the login screen?
[10:39] <sexytime> that user will only be restricted to his own home space and another directory
[10:39] <EriC^^> gui one?
[10:39] <Android> yes
[10:39] <EriC^^> Android: ok, np don't login
[10:39] <EriC^^> Android: press ctrl+alt+f1 and login
[10:39] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> so ry to use package-common as much as possible.
[10:40] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> try*
[10:40] <EriC^^> Android: which ubuntu version are you using?
[10:41] <Android> 16.04
[10:41] <EriC^^> Android: ok, type systemctl stop lightdm
[10:42] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> so if I'm the main operator create a guest account, EriC^^ ?
[10:42] <EriC^^> BrAsS_mOnKeY: for what purposes?
[10:42] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> to not use root.
[10:42] <EriC^^> BrAsS_mOnKeY: no use your normal user account
[10:42] <source47> hi guys, i am having some problems running update-grub inside a lxc container (ubuntu 15.10). when i run it i get i get /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `/dev/sda1'.
[10:42] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> ok.
[10:43] <Android> Wait man, pressing e lets you edit commands then its still GUI and ctrl+alt+f1  does nothing
[10:43] <BrAsS_mOnKeY> so can I use Ubuntu for free for commercial use?
[10:43] <Android> here'
[10:43] <ducasse> source47: you don't need grub in a container.
[10:44] <EriC^^> Android: after you added text did you press ctrl+x ?
[10:44] <Android> added text?
[10:45] <de-facto> Android did switching with Ctrl + Alt + F1 (all at once) ever worked on that box?
[10:45] <EriC^^> Android: yeah, "text" after quiet splash
[10:46] <Android> quiet splash after e?
[10:46] <EriC^^> Android: are you in grub right now?
[10:46] <Android> Ya
[10:46] <EriC^^> ok, after quiet splash type "text"
[10:47] <Android> quiet splash ? I'm confused now.
[10:48] <EriC^^> Android: at the bottom there should be a line that says linux /boot/vmlinuz ...
[10:48] <EriC^^> is there?
[10:49] <Nene1> hello all
[10:49] <Nene1> i have a quick question
[10:50] <Nene1> Unattended Upgrades removes any packages currently installed??
[10:50] <EriC^^> you mean if it's like dist-upgrade?
[10:50] <lovetruth> hello
[10:50] <Android> Wait, I'm confused. After I entered grub, I pressed e. That takes me to a page that says set params.
[10:51] <lovetruth> I am looking for some good ERP software which: *is opensource; *uses sql; *can do document management/tracking -> preferably, using the already in use samba server as storage (already have a directory/file structure for the files...); *has some web interface; *if possible, with email notification of users that they have new document to review/approve
[10:51] <lovetruth> ubuntu server 14.04 here
[10:51] <EriC^^> Android: did you press e over ubuntu?
[10:51] <lotuspsychje> lovetruth: perhaps the #ubuntu-server channel might know something?
[10:51] <lovetruth> thx lotuspsychje  :)

[10:59] <Android> done
[10:59] <EriC^^> Android: make sure it's not there anymore
[11:00] <EriC^^> type df -h it shouldn't be in the list

[11:01] <EriC^^> Android: where?
[11:01] <EriC^^> in df -h ?
[11:02] <Android> but that's the root "/" directory
[11:02] <Android> np
[11:02] <EriC^^> yeah
[11:02] <EriC^^> sda7 is home
[11:02] <Android> now
[11:02] <hugo> good morning.
[11:02] <EriC^^> so /home isn't in df -h?
[11:03] <Android> yeah
[11:03] <EriC^^> Android: ok, type cfdisk /dev/sda
[11:03] <EriC^^> Android: first type parted /dev/sda unit B print | nc termbin.com 9999
[11:03] <EriC^^> and paste the link here, it'll be good in case the proverbial hits the fan
[11:04] <Android> No internet connectivity on that system now. I was connected with sonicwall that requires authentication.
[11:05] <EriC^^> Android: ok, np type "parted /dev/sda unit B print > /var/pt.backup"
[11:05] <Android> Btw, I typed cfdisk /dev/sda
[11:06] <Android> entered into partition table.
[11:06] <Android> Now exit?
[11:06] <EriC^^> Android: yeah press q
[11:06] <lovetruth> one of the most important requirements for the erp software is to be able to do tracking (where the doc is)/review (view and change something if needed, with any software the user chooses - this is why the ERP should have cifs/samba support for file storage, with directory structure of documents chosen by me)/approval (view and eventually send/etc the document). I should be able to set some serial workflow for the document, user-ba
[11:07] <hugo> I'm trying to install open babel but I keep getting this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16344888/
[11:08] <lotuspsychje> hugo: why not installing the one from repos?
[11:08] <OerHeks> !info openbabel
[11:08] <OerHeks> on their site: Open Babel (currently 2.3.1)
[11:08] <OerHeks> so get ours :-D
[11:08] <lovetruth> like: document created on samba server, folder X/y/Z. User A notified, has to review. User A finnished, User B notified. User B now reviews... etc, User C, etc. Some admin users can view at least where the document is, where the workflow stoped, etc...
[11:08] <hugo> oh, perhaps that's easier. dumb me xD
[11:08] <hugo> thanks
[11:09] <lotuspsychje> lovetruth: there is also a #samba channel if you like
[11:10] <OerHeks> lovetruth, do you have an actual question?
[11:10] <Android_> Sorry, I got disconnected.
[11:10] <EriC^^> Android_: no problem
[11:11] <EriC^^> Android: type "parted /dev/sda unit B print > /var/pt.backup"
[11:11] <Android_> done'
[11:11] <Android_> now?
[11:11] <EriC^^> then type cat /var/pt.backup to see if the info is tehre
[11:11] <Android_> done
[11:11] <EriC^^> ok
[11:11] <EriC^^> cool
[11:11] <EriC^^> type cfdisk /dev/sda
[11:12] <EriC^^> then delete the home partition
[11:12] <Android_> opens partition table
[11:12] <EriC^^> as well as the first linux swap that's 1gb
[11:12] <Android_> sda7 i think?
[11:12] <EriC^^> yeah
[11:12] <Android_> done
[11:12] <EriC^^> also delete sda8
[11:13] <EriC^^> your swap is 8gb right?
[11:13] <EriC^^> the one you're using right now?
[11:13] <Android_> done
[11:13] <Android_> ya
[11:13] <Android_> sda5
[11:13] <Android_> now?
[11:14] <Android_> done now?
[11:14] <EriC^^> Android_: ok recreate the /home partition
[11:15] <EriC^^> press enter for the starting sector
[11:15] <Android_> donw'
[11:15] <EriC^^> and keep pressing enter, hex code 83 press enter
[11:15] <EriC^^> then write and exit
[11:16] <Android_> wait to recreate partition enter on "free space (170G)"
[11:16] <Android_> ?
[11:16] <EriC^^> press enter
[11:17] <Android_> yea
[11:17] <Android_> now?
[11:17] <EriC^^> write the table
[11:17] <Android_> how/
[11:17] <EriC^^> press write
[11:18] <Android_> no option
[11:18] <Android_> shows Partition size 170G
[11:18] <EriC^^> ok at the bottom it should say write somewhere
[11:19] <Android_> did it but says partition table altered
[11:20] <Android_> after write and typed yes to confirm
[11:20] <EriC^^> Android_: ok, exit cfdisk
[11:20] <EriC^^> Android_: type partprobe
[11:21] <Android_> error
[11:21] <EriC^^> what error
[11:22] <Android_> Partitions 8 on sda have been written but unable to inform kernel
[11:22] <Android_> as they may be in use
[11:23] <Android_> Suggests to reboot at the end line
[11:23] <Android_> before making further changes.
[11:23] <EriC^^> hm
[11:23] <Android_> But I don't think that's required
[11:24] <EriC^^> type lsblk | grep SWAP
[11:24] <akik> Android_: i've never been able to re-read the partition table if / is mounted off that disk and make changes to the partitions
[11:24] <Clever1> EriC^^ do you have any idea how to solve this: http://imgur.com/GNMywQj
[11:24] <EriC^^> akik: i've always been able to, til now
[11:25] <Android_> shows sda 1,2,3,5,6,8
[11:25] <Android_> What the hell is that>
[11:25] <EriC^^> what
[11:25] <EriC^^> Android_: type lsblk
[11:25] <EriC^^> what does it say next to [SWAP]
[11:26] <EriC^^> Clever1: i think you need the password?
[11:26] <Android_> next to swap?
[11:26] <EriC^^> yeah
[11:27] <Android_> there are two [swap] enteries under Mount Point
[11:27] <EriC^^> aha
[11:27] <EriC^^> so sda8 was in use
[11:27] <EriC^^> :/
[11:27] <Android_> What that causes?
[11:27] <EriC^^> ok, type swapoff -a
[11:28] <EriC^^> i'd think nothing
[11:28] <Android_> done
[11:28] <Android_> now?
[11:28] <EriC^^> if it attempts to write to that region your /home filesystem isn't extended to there yet
[11:28] <EriC^^> ok, try partprobe again
[11:28] <Android_> done
[11:28] <Android_> now>
[11:29] <EriC^^> Android_: ok, now run a fsck on home
[11:29] <EriC^^> what's the name of the partition now?
[11:29] <paul98> i was upgrading from 15.10 to 16.4, i done a yum update /upgrade then run sudo update-manager -d and run it through that, half way through i closed the terminal down and now the package manager has hung half way through upgrading packages
[11:30] <Ben64> paul98: yum?
[11:30] <Android_> type fsck?
[11:30] <EriC^^> Android_: e2fsck -f /dev/sdaX
[11:30] <paul98> yes
[11:30] <EriC^^> type lsblk to get the name of it
[11:31] <Ben64> paul98: you're aware that Ubuntu doesn't use yum?
[11:31] <Android_> No such file
[11:31] <paul98> oh man
[11:31] <paul98> i meant apt-get
[11:31] <OerHeks> Clever1, nice, you are on windows or mac, seeing xlite voip client :-D .. so the fix is, join ##windows op the apple channel
[11:31] <paul98> i need to change servers to ubunutu to make it easier! i run centos servers and ubuntu desktops! :(
[11:31] <EriC^^> Android_: type lsblk and get the name of the new home partition, it should be 170gb
[11:31] <EriC^^> sda6 sda7 etc
[11:32] <EriC^^> then use it in e2fsck -f /dev/sd..
[11:32] <Android_> nothing of size 170 GB
[11:32] <Android_> 5 partitions
[11:33] <Android_> and one rom
[11:33] <EriC^^> hmm which is the home you'd think?
[11:34] <paul98> i was upgrading from 15.10 to 16.4, i done a apt-get  update /upgrade then run sudo update-manager -d and run it through that, half way through i closed the terminal down and now the package manager has hung half way through upgrading packages
[11:34] <paul98> thats better! :)
[11:34] <Android_> I'm bit confused but home was on sda 7, but deleted, now five partitions and none appear to be home
[11:34] <EriC^^> Android_: did you recreate it?
[11:34] <EriC^^> Android_: type cfdisk /dev/sda
[11:35] <Android_> now?
[11:35] <EriC^^> yeah
[11:35] <Android_> sda 1,2,3,4,5,6
[11:35] <EriC^^> ok any 170gb ones
[11:36] <Android_> free space (170 G),
[11:36] <EriC^^> which one?
[11:36] <EriC^^> oh free space
[11:36] <EriC^^> ok press new on that
[11:36] <EriC^^> and create a partition
[11:37] <Android_> size?
[11:37] <EriC^^> press enter
[11:38] <Android_> what was the previous size?
[11:38] <EriC^^> 20something gb
[11:38] <Android_> I created 40 Gb now
[11:38] <EriC^^> ok
[11:39] <Android_> that says failed to parse size
[11:39] <EriC^^> type "40G"
[11:39] <Android_> done
[11:39] <EriC^^> you're going to use the rest of the space for another distro or something similar?
[11:40] <Android_> Did not decide yet
[11:41] <EriC^^> ok, cool you'll have 130gb to do something with later
[11:41] <Android_> ok
[11:41] <EriC^^> after you're done press on type
[11:41] <EriC^^> and type 83
[11:41] <EriC^^> then write the changes and exit
[11:42] <Android_> done
[11:42] <Android_> I think its done?
[11:42] <EriC^^> yeah, type partprobe
[11:42] <EriC^^> then lsblk
[11:42] <ubuntuguy> Hi
[11:43] <Android_> done
[11:43] <Android_> shows that
[11:43] <EriC^^> ok
[11:43] <Android_> reboot now?
[11:43] <EriC^^> no
[11:43] <EriC^^> btw i think it was 30gb before, not 20-ish in case it makes a difference with you
[11:44] <Android_> np
[11:44] <EriC^^> ok, type e2fsck -f /dev/sdaX
[11:44] <EriC^^> replace X with the name you got from lsblk
[11:45] <Android_> says mounted cant continue
[11:45] <Android_> aborting
[11:45] <EriC^^> which name did you use?
[11:45] <Android_> unmount that
[11:45] <Android_> ?
[11:46] <EriC^^> no nothing is mounted i think
[11:46] <Android_> name was not just sda7 but somethingsda7
[11:47] <Android_> does it requires full name
[11:47] <EriC^^> it's /dev/sda7 ?
[11:47] <EriC^^> if it's /dev/sda7 then e2fsck -f /dev/sda7
[11:47] <EriC^^> it shouldn't be mounted in lsblk
[11:47] <Android_> says mounted
[11:47] <EriC^^> the stuff to the far right are any mountpoints
[11:49] <Android_> if you type lsblk, it shows Mountpoint "part /home"
[11:49] <Android_> for sda7
[11:49] <EriC^^> hmm
[11:49] <EriC^^> ok type umount /home
[11:49] <Android_> done
[11:49] <EriC^^> try the command again
[11:49] <Android_> done
[11:50] <Android_> now done?
[11:50] <EriC^^> resize2fs /dev/sda7
[11:51] <Android_> can't uder VT100 emulation
[11:51] <ubuntuguy> Is there a mate room ?
[11:51] <Android_> *under
[11:51] <ubuntuguy> Had issues wit mate desktop
[11:51] <Android_> set window size
[11:51] <Android_> now/
[11:51] <Android_>  please a little quick man
[11:52] <Android_> now>
[11:53] <EriC^^> Android_: i've no idea
[11:53] <EriC^^> i'm asking in ##linux cause google hasn't much results
[11:53] <OerHeks> ubuntuguy, #ubuntu-mate
[11:53] <bobby_> hi iam new to chat box
[11:54] <lotuspsychje> bobby_: you joined the ubuntu support channel
[11:54] <Android_> It's basically for resizing thepartition right?
[11:54] <sbine> you're welcome bobby_
[11:54] <bobby_> thanks
[11:55] <Android_> What if I don't?
[11:55] <bobby_> so what do we do over hear
[11:55] <Android_> Or you have no idea?
[11:55] <Android_> Where have you gone man??
[11:55] <lotuspsychje> bobby_: this channel is for ubuntu questions
[11:55] <OerHeks> bobby_, tiPp: read the topic of the channel, this is ubuntu support
[11:56] <EriC^^> Android_: you dont what?
[11:56] <sbine> Here that's speak about ubuntu, like lotuspsychje tell you bobby_
[11:56] <bobby_> okey
[11:56] <Android_> resize
[11:56] <de-facto> i dont understand why it woudl need something else than vt100... maybe you coudl trick it with something like export TERM=xterm into thinking it does not run under vt100?
[11:56] <bobby_> i got it
[11:56] <EriC^^> Android_: home will still be 30gb as it was
[11:57] <EriC^^> Android_: type blkid
[11:57] <EriC^^> Android_: you need to remove the line for the extra swap you had since it's deleted now
[11:57] <EriC^^> you need to remove it from /etc/fstab
[11:57] <bobby_> i have some tech problem while doing programming in arduino Uo
[11:57] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[11:58] <Android> Sorry got disconnect but saying that is it really required to resize e2fs
[11:58] <bazhang> ##programming bobby_
[11:58] <Android> ??
[11:58] <EriC^^> Android: type "blkid"
[11:58] <Android> done
[11:58] <bobby_> okey i got solution
[11:59] <EriC^^> Android: ok, there should be a line that says type=swap
[11:59] <Android> ya
[11:59] <EriC^^> Android: that uuid is for the swap, you need to type nano /etc/fstab
[11:59] <EriC^^> and put a "#" before the line pertaining to swap that ISN'T that uuid
[11:59] <Android> done
[11:59] <Guest81940> hi
[11:59] <EriC^^> done what
[12:00] <Guest81940> i find that i cannot install matlab to xubuntu 16.04
[12:00] <EriC^^> de-facto: yeah, it's odd :/
[12:00] <Guest81940> any one can help me ?
[12:00] <Android> after last cmd it shows two swaps
[12:00] <EriC^^> de-facto: i can't find any errors like it on google either O.
[12:00] <EriC^^> O.o
[12:01] <bazhang> !info matlab
[12:01] <Android> cmd : nano etc/something
[12:01] <Android> now?
[12:01] <Android> I shows two swaps
[12:01] <EriC^^> Android: it should show only 1..
[12:01] <Guest81940> but there are no problem in 14.04
[12:01] <EriC^^> Android: ok type lsblk , which one is 8gb?
[12:02] <Android> exit how>
[12:02] <Android> ??
[12:02] <EriC^^> ctrl+x
[12:02] <Android> sda5
[12:03] <Android> 7.9
[12:03] <Android> g
[12:03] <Android> now?
[12:03] <Android> ya thats one hete
[12:03] <Android> *here'
[12:04] <Android> if sda5 is the only one
[12:04] <hellknight> is the support for ZFS on Ubuntu 16.04 production ready?
[12:04] <bobby_> can i get matlab 32 bit any version plz
[12:04] <ducasse> hellknight: yes
[12:04] <hellknight> I'm thinking of deploying to one of our backup servers.
[12:05] <hellknight> ducasse: that's great.
[12:05] <ducasse> hellknight: fully supported.
[12:05] <Android> hey that says swap was on sd8
[12:05] <Android> nano cmd
[12:05] <hellknight> currently we have FreeBSD 10 installed on that server. Will move it to 16.04 as soon as our team agrees on it
[12:06] <OerHeks> bobby_, tutorial: https://www.quora.com/How-do-I-download-and-install-MATLAB-on-Ubuntu-14-04
[12:06] <Android> where have you gone man?
[12:06] <Android> ??
[12:06] <akik> ducasse: can you put your root fs on zfs?
[12:06] <OerHeks> our wikipage is down https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB
[12:06] <hellknight> akik: I think that we need to create a separate /boot for that. I may be wrong
[12:06] <ducasse> akik: not out of the box.
[12:06] <de-facto> Android what exactly was the error you got or your resize2fs command?
[12:07] <akik> ducasse: ok so it's not as fully supported that i'd wish
[12:07] <ducasse> akik: it's not supported in the installer, no.
[12:07] <EriC^^> Android: ok, so sda5 is swap
[12:07] <EriC^^> Android: type blkid /dev/sda5
[12:07] <Android> donew
[12:08] <EriC^^> get the uuid, and type nano /etc/fstab and put a "#" before the line that has swap in it and doesn't have that uuid
[12:09] <Android> none as such but ya it shows one swap on sda8
[12:09] <bobby_> OerHeks thanks man
[12:09] <Android> Sense ambiguous
[12:10] <Android> put a #?
[12:10] <bobby_> OerHeks_i will check it out
[12:10] <EriC^^> Android: i just tried it on a usb i have, creating a smaller partition, making it bigger, and running resize2fs from tty1 logged in as root and it worked
[12:10] <EriC^^> so it's kind of odd
[12:10] <EriC^^> 16.04 here as well
[12:10] <bobby_> OerHeks_, i will check it out
[12:11] <OerHeks> bobby_, i remember 32-bit is the only version available to students, but maybe it is available now
[12:11] <Android> I see sda8. Now that's odd
[12:11] <EriC^^> nothing on google that's remotely similar either
[12:11] <Android> Deleted sda8 then how possible?
[12:11] <Myrkur> could someone give me a hand with my sftp configuration ?
[12:11] <EriC^^> Android: in /etc/fstab are there 2 swap entries?
[12:12] <Android> yeaahhhhhh
[12:12] <Android> Now?
[12:12] <EriC^^> Android: ok, the one that doesn't have the uuid you saw for sda5
[12:12] <EriC^^> put a "#" before it
[12:12] <EriC^^> then press ctrl+o to save
[12:12] <bobby_> OerHeks_, what i got to know is 32 bit still bugs are running
[12:12] <Android> both swaps have a uuid
[12:13] <Android> lol
[12:13] <Android> Is it odd?
[12:13] <Android> UUID is for what>
[12:13] <Android> ??
[12:13] <Android> purpose I mean.
[12:14] <auronandace> Android: it is a unique identifying number to correspond to a partition
[12:14] <Android> Oh then that's amibuous.
[12:14] <Android> Nee*ambiguous
[12:15] <ubuntu841> Hii frineds !!
[12:15] <Android> Where are you man?
[12:15] <auronandace> Android: do you know what ambigous means?
[12:15] <Android> lol
[12:15] <Android> it's ambiguous
[12:16] <ubuntu841> some numbers are comming after booting the machine .. I had resqued grub but I am not able to start my machine
[12:16] <ubuntu841> there is no grub prompt .. instead some no. are displaying
[12:16] <Android> Btw, hey just resolve this issue and I think I am done
[12:16] <Android> Please quick I've got a few minutes left.
[12:17] <Android> aaja bhai
[12:17] <auronandace> Android: telling people to be quick is less likely to get you any help, everyone here is a volunteer
[12:18] <ubuntu841> Android ,auronandace are u talking with me ?
[12:18] <EriC^^> Android: ok it's simple
[12:18] <EriC^^> the uuid is used to know which swap to use
[12:19] <EriC^^> the uuid that corresponds to /dev/sda5 's leave it
[12:19] <EriC^^> the other uuid, put a "#" before it so it's not used anymore
[12:19] <Android> # before uuid sure?
[12:19] <EriC^^> yes
[12:19] <EriC^^> #uuid=37492874923
[12:20] <cyclist_2> Hi, there! I am having a hard time getting vnstat to change the day the month rotates; I already addressed the issue on the configuration file, but it is not working as intended [it continues to treat day 1 as the start of the month, when I want to set a different day]; Is anyone here with knowledge to share about this subject?
[12:20] <lovetruth> OerHeks: yes, I do have an actual question. :) i was gone, sorry for late answering... my question is just above that text... :)
[12:20] <EriC^^> not the uuid of /dev/sda5 which you got before, as i said
[12:20] <lovetruth> here it is: I am looking for some good ERP software which: *is opensource; *uses sql; *can do document management/tracking -> preferably, using the already in use samba server as storage (already have a directory/file structure for the files...); *has some web interface; *if possible, with email notification of users that they have new document to review/approve
[12:20] <Android> done
[12:20] <EriC^^> Android: ok, press ctrl+o to save, then ctrl+x to exit
[12:20] <Android> done
[12:21] <EriC^^> and type mount -a to test if the swap is being used right and /home is being mounted
[12:21] <EriC^^> try mount -a , then swapon -a
[12:21] <EriC^^> then type lsblk you should see a [SWAP] and /home under mountpoints
[12:22] <Android> ya
[12:22] <EriC^^> can somebody be kind enough to send the first few letters of the /etc/shadow for root?
[12:23] <EriC^^> Android: ok right now the /home has been extended as a partition but the filesystem is still just 30gb, so you need to use a live usb and run resize2fs /dev/sd.. on it to get full use of it
[12:24] <blackwolf> is that possible to set ubuntu background with feh?
[12:24] <EriC^^> Android: we'll disable the root account
[12:24] <akik> EriC^^: by default there is no password for root it's just !
[12:24] <OerHeks> lovetruth, not sure which one, maybe this url is any help http://www.linuxlinks.com/article/20091129070817552/ERP.html
[12:24] <EriC^^> akik: just root:!:...
[12:24] <EriC^^> ?
[12:24] <akik> EriC^^: yes
[12:24] <auronandace> blackwolf: yes, i use it with i3
[12:25] <EriC^^> akik: ok, thanks
[12:25] <EriC^^> Android: type exit
[12:25] <EriC^^> then log in as your normal user
[12:25] <Android> why can't I use 40gb
[12:25] <EriC^^> from tty1
[12:25] <EriC^^> Android: cause there's a weird error about using resize2fs from tty1
[12:25] <blackwolf> auronandace: what should someone do to background be permanent?
[12:25] <lovetruth> OerHeks: the site got me this error: ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
[12:26] <auronandace> blackwolf: i put mine in my .profile
[12:26] <EriC^^> Android: try it again from a live usb
[12:26] <django_> hey all
[12:26] <Myrkur> hey
[12:26] <django_> id like a command that opens up a file.py in sublime text3
[12:26] <Android> oh god! means I wasted 3 hours
[12:26] <Myrkur> where could I find help about sftp
[12:26] <Android> ??
[12:27] <Myrkur> I mean sshd_config with sftp
[12:27] <Android> I dont' have a live usb that's why I was here. Now?
[12:27] <Myrkur> I'm sorry Android ?
[12:27] <Android> Not any other way?
[12:28] <EriC^^> Android: no, it's pretty much done, the partition is extended already and swap deleted etc. all you need to do is run resize2fs on it
[12:28] <Myrkur> ok sorry
[12:28] <EriC^^> Android: did you exit yet
[12:28] <Android> no
[12:28] <EriC^^> ok
[12:29] <EriC^^> so still logged in as root?
[12:29] <Android> Ya
[12:29] <EriC^^> try umount /home
[12:29] <Android> done'
[12:29] <EriC^^> then resize2fs /dev/sd.. for home
[12:29] <EriC^^> and type the error you get word for word
[12:29] <FManTropyx> howdy
[12:30] <GnomeKris> So I have an ntfs hdd in my pc that I'd like to make ext4. I don't have enough room anywhere else for the data that's on the drive. How can I go about doing this?
[12:30] <Android> resize: Can't set window size under VT100 emulation.
[12:30] <auronandace> GnomeKris: any free space left on that drive itself?
[12:30] <GnomeKris> Plenty
[12:31] <GnomeKris> I could triplicate all the data and still have space
[12:31] <Android> does that makes the error clear
[12:31] <Android> ?
[12:31] <auronandace> GnomeKris: then you can shrink the current partition on it and make a new partition then transfer the data from one to the other
[12:31] <ohadb> Hello. I am having problem with using nested ssh session. what does it mean? I have a machine (A) that has ssh access to another machine (B) that has ssh access to another machine (C). I need machine A to perform an operation on C. I need to do it in a script. non interactively. can anyone advise?
[12:31] <EriC^^> Android: are you typing resize2fs or resize!?
[12:32] <GnomeKris> That makes sense. I'll give it a shot.
[12:32] <GnomeKris> Thanks
[12:32] <Android> resize e2fs
[12:32] <EriC^^> Android: it's one word
[12:32] <EriC^^> resize2fs
[12:34] <source47> hi guys, i am getting timedatectl command not running on ubuntu 15.10 in lxc. its giving Failed to create bus connection: No such file or directory
[12:35] <source47> any ideas?
[12:35] <source47> i have systemctl working
[12:35] <source47> and there is a binary timedatectl
[12:35] <ikonia> they are two very different commands for different purposes
[12:36] <source47> k
[12:36] <source47> ikonia: i need timedatectl working basically
[12:37] <ikonia> source47: you're using a container, the time will probably be set from the host
[12:37] <ikonia> what is it exactly you are trying to ?
[12:37] <source47> ikonia: i am running 'timedatectl'
[12:37] <ikonia> yes, I understand that
[12:37] <source47> it works fine on a ubuntu 16.04 container
[12:37] <ikonia> but why - what is your end goal
[12:38] <ikonia> ahh 16.10
[12:38] <ikonia> 15.10
[12:38] <ikonia> sorry - I missed that
[12:38] <source47> my end goal is to have it run on 15.10
[12:38] <source47> like it does everywhere else
[12:38] <ikonia> are you basically trying to set the system time/date ?
[12:39] <antonio_> wow mates good
[12:39] <source47> i just need to run it. its part of a base install for an application stack.
[12:39] <source47> so short answer, i need that running.
[12:39] <ikonia> source47: you just run it then
[12:39] <ikonia> it will error - but what do you care, if you just need to run it
[12:39] <source47> then i get "Failed to create bus connection: No such file or directory"
[12:39] <ikonia> correct, but who cares, you just need to run it, that is a run and it will move on
[12:40] <source47> ok, i need to run it *normally*
[12:40] <source47> i care :-)
[12:41] <ikonia> is dbus running ?
[12:41] <antonio_> test
[12:42] <goof> the command "bash" returns "/home/user/newfolder: no such file or directory" - how can I remove this directory from the bash listing?
[12:43] <ikonia> look at your .bashrc and .bash_profile
[12:43] <source47> nope. i cant find it running: ps -ef | grep dbus | grep -v grep
[12:43] <source47> how can i run it?
[12:43] <ikonia> source47: so there is your problem
[12:43] <antonio_> test again
[12:43] <source47> isnt it there on a default install of ubuntu 15.10 ?
[12:43] <ikonia> source47: it's not just about 15.10
[12:43] <ikonia> the host also matters
[12:44] <source47> how do u mean?
[12:44] <mcphail> antonio_: please don't use this room for tests. This is the Ubuntu supoort channel
[12:44] <mcphail> *support
[12:44] <goof> ikonia: thanks .bashrc worked
[12:44] <ikonia> source47: found a bug for you https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1477130
[12:45] <source47> ikonia: thanks. i saw that alraedy
[12:48] <source47> ok nm. it works. had to apt-get install dbus for some reason
[12:54] <GnomeKris> I was unaware that it would take forever and a day to resize an ntfs partition...
[12:59] <auronandace> GnomeKris: the bigger they are and the more data on it the longer it will take
[13:00] <GnomeKris> auronandace, I guessed as much. It's a 360ish gb hdd with about 140gb data
[13:00] <GnomeKris> all steam games
[13:03] <GnomeKris> So, with 14.04, can I cycle through workspaces from 1>2>3>1>2 or back like 3>2>1>3>2, using the ctrl+alt+arrow keys? Because so far, it stops at either end, and I'd rather just keep rolling through.
[13:03] <goof> I have an xsession error "/usr/sbin/lightdm-session: 29: .: Can't open /home/g/torch/install/bin/torch-activate" - how can I fix this without installing torch?
[13:03] <OerHeks> GnomeKris, hold the windows key for shortkeys
[13:04] <ikonia> goof: make the file ?
[13:04] <goof> ikonia: the directory exists
[13:04] <ikonia> goof: it'a file
[13:04] <ikonia> it's trying to open the file
[13:05] <GnomeKris> OerHeks, I'm not sure what you mean, but I've just tried a few different things with the windows key, none of which produced the results I am looking for.
[13:05] <goof> ikonia: how can I make that?
[13:05] <ikonia> it's a file
[13:05] <ikonia> just touch it
[13:06] <ikonia> although why won't you use torch ?
[13:06] <OerHeks> GnomeKris, i read 'ctrl + alt + arrow keys' to move beween them
[13:06] <OerHeks> and keeps rolling, there is no such option
[13:07] <GnomeKris> There needs to be that option, for those of us who use static workspaces.
[13:07] <GnomeKris> I only ever need three at max. So I turn it to static, and would like to be able to just cycle through in a continuous loop...
[13:08] <curlyears> mronin, peeps
[13:08] <curlyears> *moan*  I have computer headaches again
[13:09] <OerHeks> GnomeKris, i think you need to write a script yourself with xdotool or wmctrl > http://askubuntu.com/questions/377901/auto-switch-workspaces
[13:09] <Optiprism> What does the .d stand for? For example in init.d
[13:09] <curlyears> I was ytping a message into IRC yesterday morning, and my keyboard and mouse just died.  I finally figured out thaat the 5V fuse for my rear USB ports mush have blown, because now that I'm plugged into thefront USB ports, thiungs light up and work
[13:10] <OerHeks> Optiprism, deamon
[13:10] <Optiprism> Oh I see
[13:10] <GnomeKris> If I could, I would. I have no idea where to even begin with that. Thanks though OerHeks.
[13:10] <OerHeks> GnomeKris, there are 2 examples, edit them to your situation?
[13:11] <GnomeKris> I'm looking at them now. I may be able to do something with them, with enough time and research. haha
[13:12] <curlyears> in any case, I tried to boot into 16.04 Live-DVD mode, and kept getting this weird error message:  mumMR not foudn  error reading hd0 and then it would dump me into a grub prompt.  After hitting reset 4 or 5 times, it successfully started a cli sesseion which allowed me to get into Liive-DVD, so here I am wondering what happened?
[13:13] <curlyears> Are there known problems with the desktop 16.04 iso, or is this something unique to me?
[13:13] <auronandace> curlyears: how old is this computer your trying to use? sounds like you got hardware issues
[13:14] <curlyears> auronandace: I built it fromo brand new parts purc hased at tigerdirect in august.  worked just fine until late December, when all this trouvble started
[13:15] <curlyears> it's an 8 core FX8300 AMD64 processor chip, 24GB RAM, 3.4TB HDD, and a BluRay rewritable
[13:16] <curlyears> snd just for the information of it, no, the 16.04 iso is not written on a BlueRay disc, it's written on a normal DVD rewritable
[13:17] <auronandace> curlyears: wow, that is a beefy system. sometimes using brand new hardware like that you'll need to wait till the support for drivers and such make it though to the kernel development
[13:18] <curlyears> auronandace: yeah, but for example the Gigabyte tech informed me when I was seeking tech support for my MB that this MB is an older model,  no longer sold.
[13:19] <curlyears> the latest update for the BIOS flash firmware is dated mi-2013
[13:19] <auronandace> curlyears: an older model motherboard that supports 24gb of ram? that doesn't quite add up to me
[13:19] <curlyears> 3013 isn't THAAT old
[13:19] <curlyears> 2013
[13:20] <auronandace> i agree
[13:20] <curlyears> in any case networking and video seem to be stable under 16.04 (so far) so that's good news
[13:21] <curlyears> I have this much "beef" because I am going to be doing a .lot of 3D CAD in supporrt of my 3D printer
[13:22] <tapacenbal> i, Is a NVMe SSD bottlenecked with a 16 PCI-E lanes CPU ?
[13:22] <akik> curlyears: you mentioned that you thought usb connectors were non-working. maybe you should investigate that further?
[13:22] <amundsen> hi
[13:23] <amundsen> i'm not being able to watch youtube videos in ubuntu 16.04. does anybody know why this could happen ?
[13:23] <OerHeks> tapacenbal, that is more a question for #hardware
[13:24] <tapacenbal> cannot talk there
[13:24] <OerHeks> amundsen, did you install restricted extras for codecs and flash and such?
[13:24] <curlyears> \akik:  like I said, neither kb nor mouse light up or work when plugged into rear panel USB ports.  When I plug them into the front panel USB ports, the light up and work.   NOTE:  this failure, whatever it is, happened while I was running and typing
[13:24] <OerHeks> !register | tapacenbal
[13:24] <OerHeks> some channels needs registering your name
[13:24] <tapacenbal> ok thanks
[13:25] <akik> curlyears: try inserting an usb stick into the rear ports and check kernel log (dmesg) if there's a problem
[13:25] <beginner_> hi, i'm trying ubuntu 16.04 on a machine with an rtl8192se (version B, i think) wireless card. connection with my AP is established, dns/gateway/etc. is set correctly, a correct ip is assigned (dhcp works), but i cannot ping the AP, nor anything but localhost ... i've been using 14.04 before (and other distros), all kernel 3.x - no problem at all with those.
[13:25] <amundsen> OerHeks, yes i did
[13:25] <beginner_> any idea what might be wrong?
[13:26] <beginner_> issues with linux 4.x maybe?
[13:26] <GnomeKris> I just installed unity-tweak-tool and gnome-tweak-tool via sudo apt-get install, and neither one shows up in my dash? It did prompt me to switch display managers during the install, is that the problem? Because I'm still using GDM, should I have switched to LightDM?
[13:27] <ikonia> beginner_: why do you think it's a kernel problem ?
[13:27] <ikonia> there is nothing in what you've sasid that even suggests the kernel
[13:27] <curlyears> hmm... when I plug a USB stick in there, it shows up on my launch bar
[13:28] <curlyears> strange.  I am booted under 16.04 Live-Dvd, but a uname -a shows its  is runnung under 14.04
[13:28] <ikonia> curlyears: explain
[13:29] <curlyears> ikonia: explain what, exactly?
[13:29] <ikonia> how you think it's 14.04 from uname -a
[13:32] <curlyears> ikonia: output from uname -a:  Linux ubuntu 4.2.0-27-generic #32~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 22 15:32:26 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[13:32] <beginner_> ikonia: wildly guessing, since this is the first 4.x kernel i've run on the machine. as i said, all the older distros had no problems and they were all 3.x
[13:33] <GnomeKris> Do I have to switch to LightDM in order to use unity tweak tool?
[13:33] <ikonia> curlyears: that's 16.05
[13:33] <ikonia> 04
[13:33] <ikonia> beginner_: so wild guessing isn't helpful - if you don't know, don't guess, just ask
[13:34] <ikonia> beginner_: it's more likley icmp is being blocked at a firewall
[13:34] <curlyears> then why this string: 14.04.1-Ubuntu
[13:34] <Pici> curlyears: the 14.04 in that doesn't have anything to do with the release you're currently running. its just a version identifier for the kernel build itself. (also 14.04 didn't ship with a 4.2.x kernel)
