[00:02] <Soulboy> Hi I was wondering if I could get a comprehensive guide on how to dual boot ubuntu with windows 10
[00:05] <bazhang> http://www.linuxandubuntu.com/home/dual-boot-ubuntu-15-04-14-10-and-windows-10-8-1-8-step-by-step-tutorial-with-screenshots Soulboy
[00:10] <w30> badbodh, thanks or the help, I gotta reboot.
[00:15] <nicolas> hELLO!
[00:15] <nicolas> Its my first time in this chat
[00:15] <nicolas> I speak spanish
[00:17] <Raziel> Can someone help me edit files on windows partition
[00:18] <badbodh> Raziel: how are you accessing/mounting windows partitions ?
[00:19] <Raziel> It automatically mounted. I tried unmounting and it says that it's busy
[00:19] <badbodh> windows partitions don;t automatically mount unless you put them in fstab.
[00:20] <badbodh> you must have opened nautilus and clicked on left column right ?
[00:20] <Raziel> yes
[00:20] <badbodh> that will manually mount the partition to /media/<username>/partition-name
[00:20] <badbodh> go to the above location and verify
[00:21] <Raziel> It is mounted there
[00:21] <badbodh> you can see all the files ? good.
[00:21] <Raziel> Yes I can see the files
[00:21] <badbodh> now if nautilus or any other file manager mounts it, you should have read/write access by default.
[00:23] <badbodh> you can copy/cut/paste/delete files using nautilus. however other apps like dropbox, office, gimp etc may not be able to write files directly into those partitions.
[00:24] <badbodh> so create your file in home folder, and cut/paste to windows partition
[00:24] <badbodh> once it is pasted in windows partition, you can edit and save the file without problems.
[00:25] <Raziel> I can't rename or delete files that are already in windows partition
[00:26] <zykotick9> Raziel: all permissions for FAT/NTFS are determined by how it's mounted, as they lack POSIX permissions.  I don't really use either, so have no suggestions - good luck.
[00:26] <badbodh> bummer. what have you tried so far Raziel ?
[00:27] <Raziel> vrm Objective.docx
[00:27] <Raziel> rm: cannot remove ‘Objective.docx’: Operation not supported
[00:27] <badbodh> zykotick9: if you don;t have suggestions no need to scare new users. i have NTFS partitions that work seamlessly on both linux and windows.
[00:28] <stel> Hello
[00:28] <stel> i want to ask a question
[00:28] <stel> any of you have used apple wirless keyboard with ubuntu? it is possible?
[00:29] <zykotick9> badbodh: good for you.  Pro-Tip, use a real filesystem ;)
[00:29] <badbodh> Raziel: for now reboot once and try again. make sure you don;t open any apps after login, only nautilus. and click on the windows partitions again
[00:29] <badbodh> if it don;t work we can try some dirtier tricks
[00:30] <badbodh> zykotick9: thanks, you may go to bed now.
[00:30] <Raziel> I'm actually using a live usb so I'll have to reinstall hexchat if I do that. I've tried a live usb with Kali linux and linux mint and I get the same error.
[00:32] <badbodh> Raziel: to use widows/NTFS partitions properly on linux, you gotta add entries for each partition in /etc/fstab
[00:32] <stel> it is possible to use apple wireless keyboard with Ubuntu?
[00:33] <badbodh> Raziel: have you enabled 'compression to save space' in your windows partitions ?
[00:34] <Raziel> Here's what I'm trying to do. My girlfriend got mad at me and changed my password. I need to go into system32 and change Utilman.exe to Utilman.exe.bak and then I need to change cmd.exe to Utilman.exe. This way when I boot the computer I can bring up the command prompt and change the password.
[00:34] <Raziel> No I have not badbodh
[00:37] <badbodh> Raziel: so you don't really have plans for using ubuntu full time ;)
[00:38] <Raziel> I have fedora on my other computer. That's usually what I use but all of my school files are on this one and I need to get in so I can do my homework. I can't even copy files to usb
[00:38] <badbodh> you can just open terminal, type "sudo -s" for root shell. navigate to the directory and use 'mv' command
[00:39] <Mech> How did you guys learned the commands for Ubuntu?
[00:39] <badbodh> better option will be to just say sorry. kiss and makeup
[00:40] <Mech> Is there a good website or ebook?
[00:40] <Raziel> mv Objective.docx Objective.txt
[00:40] <Raziel> mv: cannot move ‘Objective.docx’ to ‘Objective.txt’: Operation not supported
[00:40] <badbodh> Raziel: even with root shell ?
[00:40] <Raziel> yep
[00:41] <Raziel> To be honest I'm using kali linux right now so I'm automatically root
[00:41] <Raziel> There was no one in the kali forum and kali is based off ubuntu so I figured it was close enough
[00:42] <gleepwurp> Raziel, is the NTFS filesystem mounted as RW?
[00:42] <badbodh> then run 'umount -a' , and mount it properly. step 1 : mkdir /mnt/mygf , step 2: mount /dev/whatever /mnt/mygf , step 3: navigate to /mnt/mygf and use mv command
[00:42] <bazhang> get kali support then Raziel
[00:42] <bazhang> !kali | Raziel
[00:42] <badbodh> for 'whatever' part, run 'lsblk' to check which one you have to mount
[00:44] <Raziel> umount -a
[00:44] <Raziel> umount: /media/root/Windows: target is busy
[00:44] <Raziel>         (In some cases useful info about processes that
[00:44] <Raziel>          use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1).)
[00:44] <bazhang> Raziel, kali is not supported here
[00:44] <badbodh> wait a minute, you use kali and can't handle basic stuff ? go learn real linux first :/
[00:44] <bazhang> Raziel, stop asking for support here
[00:44] <Raziel> It's the same thing for what I'm trying to do bazhang
[00:45] <bazhang> Raziel, no its not, not supported ask kali support NOT here
[00:45] <badbodh> then join offtopic channel and ask. if anybody is interested they will fix you up
[00:45] <bazhang> #kali-linux is their support
[00:46] <badbodh> i assumed you are on ubuntu. can't help if you use a variant. things don;t apply ditto
[00:48] <Raziel> No one is in these kali forums
[00:48] <badbodh> bazhang: he mentions Utilman.exe, cmd.exe and girlfriend , is he trying to hack in ?
[00:48] <Jordan_U> Raziel: Then ask in ##linux or boot from an actual Ubuntu LiveCD/USB.
[00:48] <bazhang> Raziel, then use a distro that has support, not our issue
[00:49] <Raziel> I tried linux mint and I had the exact same errors
[00:49] <bazhang> Raziel, also not supported, lets wrap this up now
[00:50] <Raziel> bazhang you don't have to be a dick.
[00:50] <badbodh> prepare ubuntu live dvd/usb and try the steps i mentioned.
[00:51] <badbodh> *facepalm*
[00:52] <mrts> how do i connect mouse and keyboard
[00:52] <mrts> :)
[00:52] <bazhang> ##hardware mrts
[00:53] <zykotick9> Raziel: kali isn't even based on ubuntu... just sayin'
[00:53] <mrts> just joking
[00:53] <mrts> kali is debian
[00:53] <ablest1980> ubuntu too
[00:56] <Raziel> zykotick9 what's it base on?
[00:57] <acethebass> lol bat man

[01:20] <Oldtech1> hello room
[01:22] <Oldtech1> has anyone did any work with cross platform cpu clustering that can auto worker/server to device under load ?
[01:24] <lapinozz> Oldtech1: what do you mean?
[01:25] <coiterz> Oldtech1: that sounds like firmware in the CPU. ARM devices do that
[01:28] <Oldtech1> coiterz: i mean like home networks now usually have consoles "ps3 or 4 or xbox" android phones and a pc or 2 . imagine a beowolf cluster or like HPC cluster but server can be like on the fly to whatever device is under load
[01:29] <Oldtech1> Oldtech1: currently HPC and beowolf as i know has only one dedicated server and cant be set on the fly
[01:35] <chaos7theory> Does anyone have experience with Gufw?
[01:35] <chaos7theory> The documentation isn't extensive. What does the setting "Log all" mean?
[01:39] <xtalmath> how do I generate a system-wide prompt with a dialog of my choosing?
[01:39] <xtalmath> i.e. I want to make a program that stops me from using browser etc, unless I process what is prompted
[01:47] <zhxk> &paste
[01:47] <zhxk> #paste
[01:47] <zhxk> !paste
[01:48] <zhxk> i cant paste img at imgur.com, any options?
[01:49] <OerHeks> zhxk, why not?
[01:51] <Bray90820> Has anyone tried ubuntu on an Asus vivo tab smart
[01:51] <Bray90820> I wanted to know if it was even comparable
[01:52] <OerHeks> zhxk, if it is blocked, try http://www.filmot.com/
[02:08] <Bray90820> Is ubuntu compatible with the Intel Atom Z2760 processor
[02:09] <riqi> Hi, I know how to backup my file system with tar. The problem is how to restore it if you want full disk encryption. Can you decrypt a disk AND unmount it???
[02:09] <riqi> So you can untar the backup.
[02:10] <riqi> And overwrite all the fresh install directories with your own files
[02:11] <riqi> In other words: backup your disk with tar -> Do a fresh install with LUKS on another drive -> Decrypt drive AND unmount -> untar your backup in /
[02:16] <OerHeks> riqi, there is no way to decrypt your drive as you want to. i would make a list with installed programs, and reinstall them afterwards

[02:26] <digitsm> hello
[02:26] <digitsm> I have installed a new ubuntu on my Portable 2TB USB HDD to boot from it on different PCs
[02:28] <digitsm> But I have a problem when I want to boot from it on my home PC which has a Geforce 6100 nForce 405 onboard VGA controller
[02:29] <Soulboy> sorry had to leave irc and come baxk on phone, so any reason why grub might not load?
[02:30] <digitsm> I guess the problem is because of nouveau driver, which is loaded as default for nvidia vga controllers
[02:30] <digitsm> Should I install proprietary NVidia driver on my portable ubuntu?
[02:31] <digitsm> What if I attach my portable HDD to a PC with intel GPU?
[02:51] <Raziel> Can someone help me edit files in windows partition. I'm using a live usb of ubuntu to access the partition.
[02:51] <pugtor> does anyone happen to know if logrotate hangs or does anything awkward if a command that's put inside of postrotate doesn't exist?
[02:52] <Raziel> I can't rename or delete files in my windows partition from ubuntu
[02:55] <badbodh> Raziel: already told you the magic steps. if you didn't note them down, good luck.
[02:56] <Soulboy> badbodh any idea why grub may not be loading during bootup?
[02:56] <badbodh> Soulboy: you sure set your bios to boot hdd first ?
[02:57] <Soulboy> Yes
[02:57] <badbodh> is your machine bios/mbr or uefi/gpt ?
[02:57] <Raziel> I tried it and it didn't work
[02:57] <Soulboy> Uefi/gpt
[02:58] <badbodh> i got no clue about uefi/gpt systems. stick around maybe somebody knows something.
[02:58] <scoundtats> Soulboy Raziel
[02:58] <Soulboy> Ahh kk thanks anyway
[02:59] <badbodh> Raziel: close all applications and try again. your ubuntu isn't some alien magical creature that those steps won;t work.
[02:59] <Raziel> badbodh when I do sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/mygf it says mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /mnt/mygf busy
[02:59] <scoundtats> Soulboy: you seem quirky
[03:00] <scoundtats> Raziel: hey
[03:00] <badbodh> Raziel: if it's already mounted then why bother mounting again. preoceed to sudo mv part
[03:00] <Raziel> All applications are closed. I tried the command and it didn't work. I rebooted and tried again and same thing.
[03:00] <Raziel> ok just a sec
[03:01] <Raziel> badbodh when I ls /mnt/mygf nothing is there.
[03:01] <Raziel> hey scoundtats
[03:01] <badbodh> run lsblk and share output on pastebin, don;t paste here
[03:03] <scoundtats> badbodh: will that work
[03:03] <badbodh> scoundtats: ??
[03:03] <cassio3> hey. I have this weird thing where I am looking at emacs in a cloud 9 buffer
[03:03] <cassio3> it is ubuntu
[03:03] <cassio3> I was simply trying to get the path of the file I was looking at
[03:03] <scoundtats> cassio3: really. Odd
[03:03] <shoaib> http://pastebin.com/bS0m8SE8
[03:04] <shoaib> help please
[03:04] <cassio3> scoundtats
[03:04] <cassio3> yes, I know
[03:04] <cassio3> how do I exit it
[03:04] <cassio3> I am inside M-x
[03:04] <shoaib>  im on live disk i tried to install amd catalyst control and it messed up everything, i reinstalled ubuntu but now after login all i get is a blank screen, i tried to apt-get upgrade now its showing this error in the end
[03:04] <cassio3> shoaib
[03:04] <GatsbeeHost> Hey, can anyone please help me. Somehow I've messed up my laptop that I need for school :(
[03:04] <cassio3> to be truthful, installing amd control center on windows also results in similar issues
[03:04] <charlie> hello
[03:05] <cassio3> do you know what run level you are at?
[03:05] <cassio3> Gatsbeehost
[03:05] <cassio3> you are going to have to provide details
[03:05] <scoundtats> GatsbeeHost: that's generic
[03:05] <cassio3> is it booting?
[03:05] <GatsbeeHost> I was having problems with the wifis hard block coming on and off so I tried : Sudo apt-get upgrade
[03:05] <GatsbeeHost> But it Failed due to lost connection , and now I can't connect to wifi or Ethernet
[03:05] <cassio3> that doesn't harm anything in the few times I've tried it
[03:06] <cassio3> isn't there a way to rebuild the packages using dpkg?
[03:06] <cassio3> are you concerned you may have updated the kernel?
[03:06] <cassio3> did the wifi work shortly after install
[03:06] <GatsbeeHost> I'm not sure ? Super Unsavvy with Ubuntu
[03:07] <GatsbeeHost> Wifi hasn't worked since the upgrade failed
[03:07] <GatsbeeHost> Sudo rfkill unblock all doesn't fix it
[03:07] <cassio3> does it show signs of working?
[03:07] <cassio3> I'm really confused
[03:08] <cassio3> did it work after install or not?
[03:08] <cassio3> and your laptop does not have a hardware switch?
[03:08] <scoundtats> I know cassio3 it will
[03:08] <GatsbeeHost> Wifi won't go off hard block , and wired connection is recognized but doesn't connect
[03:08] <cassio3> connecting via ethernet doesn't work
[03:08] <cassio3> ok
[03:08] <cassio3> let's fix wired connection
[03:08] <cassio3> is it getting an IP address?
[03:09] <GatsbeeHost> Physical switch does nothing
[03:09] <GatsbeeHost> Okay :)
[03:09] <cassio3> can you probe whether it is getting an IP address?
[03:09] <GatsbeeHost> How do I check .?
[03:09] <Raziel> http://pastebin.com/6ZqYYMSu sorry I'm using 2 computers. hexchat won't run on the computer in question.
[03:10] <Raziel> badbodh^
[03:10] <scoundtats> GatsbeeHost: just run setup for network. Then select run at startup. Restart.
[03:10] <cassio3> thank you
[03:11] <cassio3> also, we should ask is wifi not working mean that it can't see any networks, or that it can't connect to them
[03:11] <cassio3> I had two laptops that were blocked
[03:11] <cassio3> but they were really old
[03:11] <scoundtats> cassio3: you hellbent on wrecking his system
[03:11] <pressure679> I liked ubuntu 8.04 hardy heron, but now ubuntu uses unity, and even if you use gnome 3 the hw req's become bigger and bigger (so I use xubuntu atm). I can see ubuntu mate uses gnome 2 like 8.04, and wonder if it is better to support this distro rather than xfce? although the hw req's are abit bigger.
[03:11] <cassio3> and it was user error for not turning on wifi prior to installing ubuntu
[03:12] <cassio3> why do you think I am hellbent on destroying his system?
[03:12] <GatsbeeHost> Cannot find run at startup :(
[03:12] <scoundtats> pressure679: that's opinions
[03:12] <GatsbeeHost> Her *
[03:12] <cassio3> I do apologize if I am giving wrong info
[03:12] <cassio3> I will step back
[03:13] <cassio3> thank you scoundtats
[03:13] <GatsbeeHost> No no you are helping , I just wish I understood the jargon better :(
[03:13] <cassio3> no, soundtats was correct to rein me in
[03:13] <scoundtats> GatsbeeHost: don't select allow users to manage. Network will start next boot.
[03:14] <pressure679> Well, I am between Ubuntu with Gnome (3), Mate (Gnome 2) and Xfce.
[03:14] <badbodh> Raziel: what kind of partitioning is that. i'm afraid i bit more than i could chew.
[03:14] <GatsbeeHost> Okay so a second reboot fixed wired connection , but my wifi hard block is still up
[03:14] <cassio3> yay!!!
[03:14] <badbodh> guess you have to convince your friend to give up the pass
[03:14] <cassio3> GatsbeeHost
[03:15] <GatsbeeHost> :)?
[03:15] <cassio3> do you have a wifi dongle you can test with?
[03:15] <cassio3> have you been through the ubuntu troubleshooting? can it see the card?
[03:15] <GatsbeeHost> I don't
[03:16] <cassio3> go through the ubuntu help wifi troubleshooting
[03:16] <cassio3> I found it helpful
[03:16] <GatsbeeHost> I don't know how to tell if Ubuntu troubleshooting can recognize card
[03:16] <badbodh> cassio3: give him the link
[03:16] <GatsbeeHost> Is it okay to try Sudo apt-get upgrade now with a reliable connection ?
[03:17] <GatsbeeHost> Her*!lol
[03:17] <brenda> hi
[03:18] <brenda> i have a question
[03:18] <cassio3> https://help.ubuntu.com/
[03:19] <imnotsure> hey quick question
[03:19] <brenda> i have ubuntu 14.04 and today i started my pc and the touchpad doesn't work
[03:19] <imnotsure> i have ubuntu server 14.04 setup with open VPn client, when i start the VPN , ALL my traffic on the cleint server gets routed throguh the server and i lose my ssh connection to the cleint. How to i make the client use Eth0 still and only use the VPN tunnel in apps that i tell it to
[03:20] <imnotsure> is that possible?
[03:20] <cassio3> brenda, this seems like dpkg corruption
[03:20] <cassio3> do you get a message in the corner that that's what happened?
[03:21] <cassio3> Gatsbeehost
[03:21] <cassio3> apt-get upgrade upgrades everything
[03:21] <Raziel> badbodh I'm not sure the computer came with the os and i just used universal usb installer to make the live usb
[03:21] <cassio3> it would be nice if you knew which packages you needed, or what caused it to break
[03:21] <cassio3> has it ever worked?
[03:22] <GatsbeeHost> It has always worked
[03:22] <pressure679> I edited /etc/default/grub's line "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT" from "quiet splash" to "text", and now when I startx the terminal emulator's transparent background shows the wallpaper instead of app's - what to do??
[03:23] <pressure679> - This edit makes ubuntu start without a display manager btw.
[03:23] <brenda> cassio3, how do i fix it ?
[03:25] <Raziel> badbodh you still there?
[03:26] <funyun> hi can anyone point me in the right direction to accomplish this? "Create an empty database via your hosting control panel. And keep the host-name, database name, username and password ready"

[03:46] <bobdobbs> I'm on ubuntu 12.04. I'd like to get flash working on chromium
[03:46] <GatsbeeHost> Hi, i was here a few minutes ago and lost connection. i was having an issue with my wifi hardblock not turning off, hopefully someone  can help?
[03:46] <GatsbeeHost> rfkill- list all "
[03:46] <GatsbeeHost> soft block no hardblock yes
[03:46] <bobdobbs> I found this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Chromium/Getting-Partner-Flash , but I do not have this UI on 12.04
[03:47] <GatsbeeHost> rfkill unblock all does nothing (even as su)
[03:48] <bobdobbs> ideally, I'd like to get flash working in firefox as well
[03:48] <bobdobbs> but I'm less concerned with getting firefox working then getting chromium working
[03:49] <bobdobbs> googling, I get a lot of conflicting information: like, I'm not sure whether I should use the pepper flash installer or not
[03:50] <bobdobbs> there's conflicting advice on that
[03:50] <TJ_Remix> GatsbeeHost: what make/model of PC is it?
[03:50] <Raziel> badbodh you there?
[03:51] <GatsbeeHost> its an hp pavillion touchsmart
[03:51] <Raziel> Can anyone help me edit windows files
[03:52] <bobdobbs> If I search within the 'Ubuntu Software Center', it appears that the "adobe flash plugin" is installed. So I'm not sure what is broken: my browser, ubuntu's package management system, or my browsers
[03:52] <bobdobbs> I imagine that it isn't the browsers, because it isn't likely that they are both broken at the same time (firefox, chromium)
[03:55] <bobdobbs> I've obviously got some flash packages installed: http://pastie.org/10422704
[03:55] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: We've had quite a few similar issues recently which all seem to boil down to system firmware/BIOS bugs; specifically ACPI support. When the firmware finds it is working with the Linux OS, rather than Windows, it doesn't enable control of some platform-specific functionality. Radio hard-block seems to be the primary service affected, too.
[03:59] <GatsbeeHost> if i restore default settings in the bios will i loose  all my stuff?
[03:59] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: There's a kernel command-line option you can try to discover if that is the case for your system: Try adding "acpi_osi="Linux"  ". If that doesn't work, do a search on the ACPI table for the Windows-specific OSI names with "sudo strings /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT | grep -i windows" and try the most recent Windows string, e.g. acpi_osi="Windows 2012"
[04:00] <GatsbeeHost> TJ: im sorry im not savvy with ubuntu at all, i dont know how to do any of that .. :(
[04:01] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: To add entries to the kernel command line see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters
[04:02] <GatsbeeHost> okay thank you, i will try to follow that
[04:02] <GatsbeeHost> also if i restore system settings will i loose anything?
[04:04] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: Changing BIOS/firmware default settings won't affect this issue. It's best not to make major changes until you've identified  the cause/workaround. If acpi_osi doesn't solve it there may be other steps that will help. With HP there are other issues related to the hp_wmi platform driver that is supposed to interface (via ACPI events) with the platform media keys, radio switch, etc.
[04:04] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: I assume the PCs radio kill switch is a hot-key on the keyboard, not a dedicated switch?
[04:05] <GatsbeeHost> yes, on f12
[04:06] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: I thought so. That makes it more likely acpi_osi=XXXX could help, or failing that, changes to the hp_wmi platform driver.
[04:07] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: As a quick test you could drop the hp_wmi driver. Check if it is loaded first: "lsmod | grep hp_wmi"
[04:08] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: If so, remove it from the kernel with "sudo modprobe -r hp_wmi" and then try the F12 radio key function
[04:08] <GatsbeeHost> lsmod | grep hp_wmi shows: hp_wmi                 14062  0  sparse_keymap          13948  1 hp_wmi wmi                    19177  1 hp_wmi
[04:10] <GatsbeeHost> but sudo modprobe -r hp_wmi did nothing
[04:13] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: That will be because sparse_keymap depends on it. Kernel won't allow removal of a module that others depend on. Usually nothing else depends on it.
[04:14] <TJ-> GatsbeeHost: To avoid messing with the modules unduly, try my original acpi_osi=XXXX tests. They are easier to perform, and easier to make permanent
[04:17] <GatsbeeHost> ok i will work on that
[04:20] <Raziel> Can someone help me? When I try to rename a file in my windows partition it says operation not supported. I'm using mv to rename it
[04:20] <Foxhoundz> Hello ubuntu
[04:32] <Raziel> Anyone there?
[04:36] <OerHeks> Raziel, Linux uses some characters which are not recognized in Windows for file names. Check the encoding for ntfs mount and set it to utf8
[04:37] <OerHeks> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:43] <Foxhoundz> Question
[04:43] <Foxhoundz> How do I mount network shares on boot
[04:43] <Foxhoundz> and how do I do so before any other user service starts
[04:44] <Foxhoundz> there are media delivery services that require certain NAS directories to be mounted as soon as they are started
[04:44] <Foxhoundz> so I would need these network drives mounted with the highest priority
[04:48] <kbhtech> I'm kind of stumped on a server install, can I get some guidance here?
[04:48] <TJ-> kbhtech: sure, although depending on the time of day, #ubuntu-server could be useful too
[04:49] <kbhtech> I understand, I may navigate that way depending on how things go here.
[04:49] <Foxhoundz> ask
[04:50] <kbhtech> Anyhow, I've got a gateway setup going on here and what I am trying to do is assign an IP through DHCP of <IP_ADDRESS> while being the gateway at <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:51] <TJ-> kbhtech: so maybe you need the DHCP server to send out an additional option to add a route to <IP_ADDRESS> to the clients.
[04:52] <kbhtech> I've got the DHCP server (isc-dhcp-server) I just don't know how to produce such a configuration.
[04:54] <kbhtech> I've had success at assigning and sharing internet access on the same subnet, however I don't know how to share the net on a subnet that is out of the scope of the gateway.
[04:54] <OerHeks> kbhtech, why don't you keep that server in the 192.168.2.x range?
[04:54] <kbhtech> Fe: em2 is <IP_ADDRESS> where it's client should be assigned <IP_ADDRESS> and connectivity should be shared.
[04:54] <TJ-> kbhtech: option 33 provides a list of static routes
[04:55] <OerHeks> err/ 192.168.1.x range
[04:55] <kbhtech> For the router, or other networking equiptment.
[04:56] <bhoj_> can i install ubuntu in my tablet?
[04:56] <kbhtech> It's designed to function above the networking equiptment, therefore providing additional services to the equiptment, as well as functioning as a linux firewall.
[04:56] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: wich tablet
[04:56] <bhoj_> iball slide i701
[04:57] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: wich is default Os on your tablet?
[04:57] <TJ-> kbhtech: "option static-routes ip-address ip-address" ... see "man 5 dhcp-options"
[04:57] <kbhtech> bhoj, If there is an arm64 release of ubuntu, it's possible. (assuming thats the architecture)
[04:57] <bhoj_> windows 8.1
[04:57] <lorddaedra> Hello.. I upgraded nginx-common and nginx-extras on latest Ubuntu from nginx/development ppa and got error after restart "Failed to restart nginx.service: The name org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 was not provided by any .service files"
[04:57] <lorddaedra> may be anyone know, how to fix it?..
[04:57] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: then should be possible to install ubuntu desktop, make sure you disable fastboot and secureboot first
[04:57] <kbhtech> Awesome. Thanks!
[04:57] <bhoj_> lotuspsychje: how?
[04:58] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: make an ubuntu usb and install
[04:59] <TJ-> kbhtech: Something like "option static-routes <IP_ADDRESS> 192.168.1.X;" where X is the router on the 192.168.1./24 subnet
[04:59] <bhoj_> lotuspsychje: specs -> 1gb ddr3 ram, intel atom quadcore.
[05:00] <bhoj_> is there a specific distribution which i should try?
[05:00] <TJ-> kbhtech: oops! got the numbers transposed there! "option static-routes <IP_ADDRESS> 192.168.2.X;"
[05:01] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: ubuntu desktop
[05:01] <bhoj_> lotuspsychje: how can i boot from usb if can't get in to bios?
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: some tablets with w8 needs reboot into uefi, from within windows options
[05:02] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: ask in the ##windows channel for more details
[05:03] <bhoj_> is there a ubuntu channel for tablets?
[05:03] <kbhtech> Okay, back to the potential solution. option static routes $server[<IP_ADDRESS>] $client[<IP_ADDRESS>] should provide the client the ip and connectivity?
[05:04] <TJ-> kbhtech: I should mention I'm assuming you've set the DHCP default gateway with "option routers <IP_ADDRESS>;" already
[05:04] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: there are no projects for your tablet brand i think, check the CDA forums anyway
[05:04] <lotuspsychje> bhoj_: XDA forums sorry
[05:05] <TJ-> kbhtech: No. "option static-routes DESTINATION GATEWAY_TO_DESTINATION_FROM_CLIENT_SUBNET;"
[05:07] <TJ-> kbhtech: if you have separate sub-nets A and B then clients on A can only reach clients on B via a GATEWAY that is on both. So to get from A.1 to B.1 A.1 needs to have either a default gateway in A, or if it has the gateway B.1 then A.1 also needs a static route which sends packets for B.1 to some A.X.
[05:09] <kbhtech> bhoj, this is kind of a different approach however if the bootloader is accessible and the device can be reimaged by it than you can place any OS built for the arm64 architecture.
[05:09] <kbhtech> That doesn't garantee stability.
[05:11] <bhoj_> kbhtech: probably i should'nt try it. why fix things which are'nt  broken?
[05:11] <kbhtech> So, if host is <IP_ADDRESS> and I want client to be <IP_ADDRESS> then
[05:11] <kbhtech> option static-routes <IP_ADDRESS>  <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:13] <TJ-> kbhtech: No. If client is <IP_ADDRESS> then there needs to be another 192.168.3.X host on that subnet that also has an address in the 192.168.1.X subnet. This is the entire point of sub-nets. For packets to  'leave' a sub-net there has to be a router (gateway) involved.
[05:14] <TJ-> kbhtech: are the clients on different Ethernet segments, or all on the same segment?
[05:16] <kbhtech> Okay, the network is a serial circuit up until the router and then it becomes parallel. In this circuit the modem is first, then the server, and finally the router. I want the server to provide the router a <IP_ADDRESS> ip address while it's gateway is <IP_ADDRESS>.
[05:17] <kbhtech> The final order should be: <IP_ADDRESS> -> <IP_ADDRESS> -> <IP_ADDRESS> then 192.168.2.XXX
[05:19] <TJ-> kbhtech: so you've got MODEM=<IP_ADDRESS> <-> 192.168.0.A=SERVER=<IP_ADDRESS> <-> 192.168.1.X=ROUTER=<IP_ADDRESS> <-> <IP_ADDRESS>/24 ?
[05:19] <pragomer1> how to find double saved pictures under ubuntu? found dupeguru that is not completly free (you have to pay)...  any other software advices?
[05:19] <kbhtech> Yes
[05:20] <TJ-> !info findimagedupes | pragomer1
[05:22] <TJ-> kbhtech: In that case you've got 3 routers involved, and if the clients on <IP_ADDRESS>/24 are issued IP addresses via the DHCP SERVER on <IP_ADDRESS> you'll need a DHCP relay on ROUTER 192.168.{1.X,2.1}
[05:23] <kbhtech> Okay, so router has to be assigned 192.168.1.{>1}
[05:23] <kbhtech> Okay, so router has to be assigned 192.168.1.{ >1 && < 255 }
[05:24] <TJ-> kbhtech: ROUTER has at least 2 Ethernet interfaces, 1 connected to SERVER and the other(s) connected on the client sub-net
[05:24] <TJ-> kbhtech: Yes, that is correct.
[05:24] <kbhtech> Yeah, I get that. I noticed the pattern in your formula. You taught me something :)
[05:25] <kbhtech> ROUTER has 5 ethernet ports, running OpenWRT. I was hoping to design the server router ready for manufactured releases.
[05:26] <kbhtech> I think that I understand now, that routers are assigned 192.168.0.X before it host a network on <IP_ADDRESS>.
[05:27] <kbhtech> Just like the server, has to be. I wasn't sure how modem producers and router companies worked that out.
[05:28] <TJ-> kbhtech: the problem I think is you're expecting to allocate ROUTER's <IP_ADDRESS> address. That would be incorrect. DHCP SERVER would only be able to allocate the ROUTER with its 192.168.1.X address, but that would be pointless. From what you've said, MODEM, SERVER and ROUTER should ALL have static IP addresses. Then the only issues is getting the clients on the LAN side of ROUTER to have their BOOTP/DHCP
[05:28] <TJ-> requests DHCP RELAYed via a service on ROUTER to SERVER.
[05:28] <kbhtech> How is the router assigned an IP address from the modem then?
[05:29] <kbhtech> What I'm trying to do is DHCP a Static IP
[05:29] <kbhtech> I was going to restrict range to a single ip
[05:29] <TJ-> kbhtech: It isn't. It's not connected to the MODEM, it's connected to the SERVER. ROUTER has no notion of the MODEM, everything towards MODEM has to be forwarded to SERVER
[05:30] <kbhtech> Not in my example, I'm talking about residential application. Don't modems provide the single IP for the router?
[05:30] <kbhtech> Through DHCP?
[05:30] <TJ-> kbhtech: Are you sure you want/have the SERVER between MODEM and ROUTER? Usually it is MODEM <> ROUTER <> SERVER
[05:30] <kbhtech> That's what I am trying to moch.
[05:31] <kbhtech> Yeah, I'm pretty sure about that xD.
[05:31] <OerHeks> No, the router (local) IP is set in the router itself.
[05:31] <kbhtech> Hmm...
[05:31] <TJ-> kbhtech: the MODEM has no notion of IP. If the 'modem' device is also a router that's a different matter
[05:31] <kbhtech> Hmm...
[05:32] <kbhtech> How does router software accept DHCP then and then how do modems usually use <IP_ADDRESS> while routers use <IP_ADDRESS>?
[05:33] <kbhtech> And we know it's done in BSD or Linux. It's the root OS for most firmwares.
[05:33] <OerHeks> modems do not use 192.168.x.x, only modems + router combos
[05:33] <TJ-> kbhtech: MODEM is short for MOdulator DEModulator - it is the circuit that takes a (usually analog) signal and converts into a digital stream. Residential CPE is usually a combined modem/router with several interfaces, 1 facing 'out' to the ISP, and the others facing 'in' for LAN, WLAN, etc.
[05:34] <TJ-> kbhtech: ISPs usually use PPP to create a virtual circuit that connects the modem/router's 'out' interface to the ISPs gateway.
[05:35] <kbhtech> I get it now :)
[05:36] <kbhtech> That's pretty suprising because I've seen modems provide the gateway <IP_ADDRESS> to routers several times while the router uses <IP_ADDRESS> When I look at mine, its --.--.---.-- instead.
[05:36] <Guest94747> only one question ... im using trading platform (meta 4) wiil it be supported by ubuntu .. just need to know before donwlaoding
[05:37] <kbhtech> What happened to the old school moterola? lol
[05:38] <kbhtech> I get it, thanks for clearing that up.
[05:39] <vrihadartha1> is there any other DE of ubuntu even lighter than LXDE?
[05:39] <Guest94747> is that the help we get from ubuntu?????
[05:39] <Guest94747> really ???
[05:41] <OerHeks> Guest94747, so what is that meta4 ? url ?
[05:41] <kbhtech> <IP_ADDRESS> doesn't exist in this house because the modem's providing the actual IP to the router rather than creating it's own subnet. It threw me for a loop because I've seen plenty of actual modems use the gateway <IP_ADDRESS> for access. We use to be able to open up there configuration pages and read the logs just like we can a router. When did that change?
[05:41] <Guest94747> well then ... i rather to stick with microsoft .. if that what ubuntu is about .. then im at the wrong plce ... no wonder why nobody knows about it
[05:42] <OerHeks> Guest94747, yes do that, thanks for the rant!
[05:42] <TJ-> kbhtech: sounds like the 'modem' is in transparent bridge (RFC1483) mode
[05:42] <shy> hallo
[05:43] <Guest35209> itsokay
[05:43] <DiAnne17> Hi.  I need some help.  Whenever I try to use graphics intensive websites, the cursor freezes...I have a Dell Optiplex 745 with Ubuntu 14.04.  This is my "lspci | grep VGA" output, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12424751/   ...and this is the Chrome output:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/12424747/
[05:43] <vrihadartha1> Hi
[05:43] <DiAnne17> What can I do?
[05:43] <masa_> hi,there! I have a question about forgotten password. ubuntu have a reset password system like google?
[05:44] <vrihadartha1> please state your system specs
[05:44] <Guest35209> see you again
[05:44] <TJ-> masa_: Recovery mode, on the boot manager's Advanced sub-menu
[05:45] <OerHeks> DiAnne17, that intel is not a racemonster.
[05:45] <DiAnne17> OerHeks, the site is the CHrome Web Store
[05:45] <kbhtech> RFC 1483
[05:45] <DiAnne17> :(
[05:46] <masa_> TJ, now  i am in guest sesion.
[05:46] <kbhtech> That's where I think that I keep getting a DHCP address from my modem to my router because that involves DHCP
[05:46] <shoot2kill> Hey all i bought a andriod smart phone off ebay. It comes up with all sorts of ads installs games on its own all sorts of things im running ubuntu and was wondering if anyone knew how to fix this problem
[05:47] <OerHeks> DiAnne17, well, those messages are just warnings you would not see if you didn't start chrome from terminal.
[05:47] <vrihadartha1> what brand? shoot2kill
[05:47] <shoot2kill> ill give the link
[05:47] <vrihadartha1> please
[05:48] <kbhtech> So.
[05:48] <OerHeks> shoot2kill, this is not android support
[05:48] <shoot2kill> i understand that ..but to solve the problem in going to need a ubuntu app
[05:49] <shoot2kill> as ill be plugging into my computer
[05:49] <kbhtech> This is easy. I ran to support whenever I just needed educated. Thanks Guys! Jobs Done :) lol
[05:49] <shoot2kill> so it is half a ubuntu question
[05:49] <vrihadartha1> :P
[05:50] <vrihadartha1> shoot2kill you can root your phone using ubuntu
[05:50] <OerHeks> shoot2kill, " sudo apt-get install mtp-tools mtpfs " and you can connect your android, but not to alter installed apps AFAIK
[05:50] <vrihadartha1> that'll solve your problem
[05:51] <shoot2kill> vrihad the phone looks alot like this one
[05:51] <shoot2kill> http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/5-Touch-Dual-Sim-3G-Dual-Core-Android-4-2-Mobile-Phone-Smartphone-Unlocked-Whit-/111305882084?hash=item19ea58f9e4
[05:51] <DiAnne17> shoot2kill, the chrome remote desktop app in the play store, and chrome remote desktop running on your computer, running ubuntu or what ever you want that has chrome in it, will allow you to use ubuntu from your phone wherever you go :)
[05:51]  * OerHeks all androids look alike
[05:51] <DiAnne17> i <3 ANDROID!
[05:51] <DiAnne17> and ubuntu
[05:51] <TJ-> shoot2kill: try the channel  #android   you'll probably need the DevKit and use the android debug bridge (adb)
[05:53] <vrihadartha1> android and ubuntu are cousins
[05:53] <axsk> hi
[05:53] <masa_> hi there! is some one using ubuntu phone already?
[05:53] <OerHeks> !phone
[05:53] <axsk> Trying to setup public_html in my home folder. get error forbidden you dont have permission to access public_html/info.php
[05:53] <axsk> i did chmod 0755 to publiic html
[05:53] <OerHeks> masa_, sure, lots of them, join #ubuntu-touch
[05:54] <vrihadartha1> you cant reinstall android
[05:54] <axsk> help
[05:54] <vrihadartha1> but your phone looks like a china phone
[05:54] <vrihadartha1> you will need to root it and uninstall some stock apps causing this problem
[05:54] <vrihadartha1> but most china phones come prerooted
[05:55] <OerHeks> vrihadartha1, this goes offtopic
[05:55] <vrihadartha1> sorry
[05:55] <vrihadartha1> lets stick to ubuntu
[05:55] <vrihadartha1> :)
[05:55] <masa_> are there ubuntu phone distributior in Japan ?
[05:56] <OerHeks> masa_, not yet, please visit #ubuntu-touch
[05:56] <axsk> what does this error means because search permissions are missing on a component of the path
[05:56] <kbhtech> How do crown jobs work?
[05:56] <axsk> which search permissions? 755 not enough?
[05:57] <axsk> kbhtech, you mean cron!
[05:57] <TJ-> axsk: Are you using apache web-server? did you enable mod_userdir ? did you ensure the apache process user can access the directory and travere those leading to it
[05:57] <axsk> TJ-, yes apache and enabled userdir
[05:57] <kbhtech> cron, yeah. I've just read it somewhere and I think I'm going to need to adopt the skill.
[05:57] <axsk> TJ-, i chmod 755 to public_html do i need to chmod my /home/user too?
[05:58] <TJ-> axsk: the apache process is probably operating as user:group www-data; that group needs traversal permissions from / to $HOME/public_html/
[05:58] <axsk> TJ-, sorry. brb.
[06:00] <OerHeks> !cron
[06:12] <masa_> thanks OerHeks. I saw #ubuntu touch. It is nice and littlebit funny.
[06:15] <kbhtech> I see it, wan connection type and then router ip address.
[06:15] <kbhtech> I wasn't considering wan and lan during config. Thanks TJ
[06:20] <masa_> hi there! how can i doot recovery mode?
[07:06] <ubuntu-mate> czesc
[07:17] <kbhtech> Okay debating MariaDB or MySQL
[07:23] <locksmith2> I am making an application (web app, and android app) where the users will be able to make real money. What merchant system or mechanism can I use to send money to users when they made enouch money? Like I can send them a check, or what other options are there? Is there an online service that specializes in this?
[07:23] <b4mz_> quit
[07:24] <sixyod> locksmith2: so at this point it would be very much like a normal employee pay schedule
[07:24] <sixyod> locksmith2: quit a few merchants that can do this, simple google search will give you probably a massive list of these merchants
[07:24] <sixyod> locksmith2: but you know if you are paying any other way other than a check, than you are looking at like direct bank deposit ? .. this is different your users would have to give you bank account number and routing numbers
[07:25] <sixyod> locksmith2: so most efficient way would be by check? paypal? google wallet ?
[07:25] <locksmith2> I want to have lots of users... so I need something credible so I can tell my users "We are using this company/service XXX which will be sending you yourt money."
[07:25] <locksmith2> I can't say "I will personally send you a check"
[07:25] <locksmith2> it has to be scalable
[07:26] <sixyod> locksmith2: sure yeah, can easily have a merchant generate check, be sent to you, then you can resend it, really depends on the merchant
[07:26] <locksmith2> and users need to be able to accept money easely, like onto their VISA card for example
[07:26] <locksmith2> or bank account #
[07:26] <locksmith2> so I guess ... I am looking for a murchant
[07:27] <sixyod> locksmith2: just after a minor search, something called quickpay-usa just look at it
[07:27] <somsip> locksmith2: this sounds like nothing to do with ubuntu.
[07:27] <somsip> !ot | locksmith2
[07:27] <sixyod> ^^ yeah defenitely not ubuntu related
[07:27] <sixyod> if there is an opencart channel, you could ask there :))
[07:27] <sixyod> there is but small @.@

[08:28] <octoprig> wyoung: how do I know which is my device?
[08:29] <wyoung> octoprig: depends how you connected it.  It will usually be /dev/sdX where X is a letter from a-z.
[08:29] <octoprig> Gparted looks nice.
[08:29] <wyoung> gparted is good
[08:29] <octoprig> I'd rather have a GUI for this.
[08:30] <wyoung> It will auto detect your drives too
[08:30] <octoprig> ok, I will try gparted. thanks.
[08:30] <Arx> which one understand the openwrt uboot, i want to modify the uboot, where to start ?
[08:30] <wyoung> ok, learning the console is handy too, much faster to type it in then having to point and click, type, point and click
[08:31] <wyoung> Arx: start in #openwrt
[08:31] <Arx> o&~
[08:31] <octoprig> I like to use the terminal for everything, but this is one thing where I'd like a big button that asks me "Are you sure?" when I try to format anything.
[08:31] <wyoung> ok :)
[08:32] <wyoung> gparted then :) it has a nice gnome / gtk interface
[08:32] <Arx> i have mask the openwrt uart
[08:32] <wyoung> Arx: This is a ubuntu channel
[08:32] <Arx> but there are some bytes outted from the uboot
[08:32] <zubans> Hi! Can anybody explain me how can i change the button's(minimize, maximize, close) location in window,
[08:33] <octoprig> what's the difference between /dev/sdd and /dev/sdd1?
[08:33] <wyoung> zubans: If you are using unity and maximize the application then you have no choice where the buttons are (they are always on the left).
[08:33] <Guest47147> octoprig: /dev/sdd is the disk , /dev/sdd1 is the first partition on the disk
[08:34] <Guest47147> octoprig: whenever you format it's better to create a partition table, create partitions and format them with whatever filesystem you want
[08:34] <zubans> its no good. Linux is flexible OS
[08:34] <wyoung> octoprig: 1 - 4 are primary partitions, 5 - ? (I forget what the max is) are logical partitions,
[08:34] <wyoung> octoprig: If you want to format a drive larger than 2.something TB you need to use EFI / GPT.
[08:35] <octoprig> ah.
[08:35] <hateball> zubans: If you do not like Unity you can always use a different DE like KDE Plasma, or XFCE etc
[08:35] <wyoung> zubans: or gnome :)
[08:35] <cfhowlett> wyoung, or mate
[08:35] <cfhowlett> !flavors | zubans
[08:36] <zubans> i try to use Xfce.
[08:36] <wyoung> hi cfhowlett
[08:36] <cfhowlett> yowza ^ 2! wyoung
[08:37] <wyoung> octoprig: so is this a USB drive? is it larger than 2.something TB?
[08:38] <wyoung> octoprig: Did you want to access the drive in a different OS too like windows or macosx?
[08:39] <Marasgeon> greetings
[08:40] <Marasgeon> I have a projector and I want to set it up with ubuntu, I plugged it in my laptop, but in displays doesn't show anything... ?
[08:40] <Marasgeon> The connection is through usb
[08:42] <octoprig> wyoung: it's an external disk. I'd like it to be accessible from other OSes, yeah.
[08:43] <octoprig> wyoung: it's like 1.8 TB. I formatted it as NTFS.
[08:47] <wydhry> Hi
[08:48] <wydhry> How can i set my android to always enable rw mode on /system permanently?
[08:48] <cfhowlett> errrrrrrrrrrrr, ask the #android channel?
[08:48] <wydhry> Sorry
[08:48] <cfhowlett> :)
[08:48] <sureshscribnar> sudo command is not working in aws, ubuntu instance. When I type sudo with any command, the cursor goes to ndxt blank line without executing the command. The prompt does not reappear. I can see whatever I type and have to press Ctrl+C to cancel and get the prompt.
[08:49] <Marasgeon> how can I set up my projector, does anyone know?
[08:51] <bobdobbs> I'm having trouble getting flash working in chromium and firefox. It works in chrome just fine. I'm using ubuntu 12.04
[08:57] <sureshscribnar> Any idea of my sudo command failure
[08:57] <sureshscribnar> ?
[09:00] <hateball> bobdobbs: for chromium you need pepperflashplugin-nonfree, for firefox flashplugin-installer

[09:05] <MacroMan> When I restart my PC, my input method changes to en_US even though I don't have it installed. Is this a known problem?
[09:06] <cfhowlett> MacroMan, ubuntu is INSTALLED on this computer???
[09:07] <MacroMan> I mean the input method en_US isn't installed.
[09:07] <MacroMan> I only have en_GB
[09:08] <cfhowlett> MacroMan, DID you INSTALL ubuntu on this computer?
[09:08] <MacroMan> Yes
[09:08] <MacroMan> I've had it installed for about 2 months.
[09:09] <FelixFire619> Hey, i have a broadcom 4313 (the 4727 version), will ubuntu 15 iso install working Drivers for this wifi?
[09:09] <cfhowlett> FelixFire619, probably.  if not, it's easily fixed in post install
[09:10] <cfhowlett> MacroMan, look in language settings.  I'd bet you have en-usa on board
[09:11] <FelixFire619> cfhowlett, if i dont have that wifi, i dont have internet
[09:11] <cfhowlett> FelixFire619, but you have the ubuntu .iso?  as I said, easily fixed.  see the "no internet available" option
[09:11] <MacroMan> That's the point. Each time I boot my machine, it's defaulted to a US layout.
[09:12] <cfhowlett> FelicianoTech, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#STA_-_Internet_access
[09:12] <FelixFire619> ty
[09:12] <cfhowlett> MacroMan, ... verify that you have english us installed.  you don't want?  delete!
[09:13] <MacroMan> cfhowlett, I have deleted it and it still defaults to it, even though it's not on the list.
[09:13] <cfhowlett> MacroMan, weird.  do this:  sudo locale-purge                       this cleans out the default language settings used during initial install
[09:14] <cfhowlett> MacroMan, wait 1
[09:15] <MacroMan> This only started yesterday.
[09:15] <cfhowlett> sudo locale-gen purge
[09:15] <MacroMan> Until then, it was set to UK everytime, which is the default I chose during the install.
[09:16] <MacroMan> cfhowlett, OK, I've run that. I'll see on the next reboot if it's worked. Thanks
[09:16] <cfhowlett> MacroMan, let me know
[09:16] <MacroMan> Will do. I can't reboot till later though as I'm running a backup atm
[09:16] <cfhowlett> MacroMan, OK then.
[09:21] <Xiaclo> during the ubuntu installation, if I switch to a TTY, what are the login details?  I've tried ubuntu/<blank> but I can't log in
[09:21] <yuusha> where can i get more ubuntu theme?
[09:22] <MacroMan> Xiaclo, Try root
[09:22] <MoL0ToV> i have a problem with lightdm that don't start.. someone can help me?
[09:22] <Xiaclo> Nope, root without a password doesn't work either
[09:22] <cfhowlett> !theme | yuusha
[09:22] <yuusha> ubottu: Thx!
[09:22] <k1l_> !details | MoL0ToV
[09:23] <yuusha> oh.. it is a bot?
[09:23] <DalekSec> ubottu is a bot
[09:23] <MoL0ToV> k1l_: if i run /etc/init.d/lightdm start nothing are done
[09:23] <yuusha> cfhowlett: thank you
[09:23] <k1l_> MoL0ToV: which ubuntu exactly?
[09:23] <cfhowlett> happy2help! yuusha
[09:24] <MoL0ToV> k1l_: 12.04
[09:24] <k1l_> MoL0ToV: sudo service lightdm start
[09:24] <MoL0ToV> k1l_: if i run startx xfce appears correctly
[09:24] <k1l_> MoL0ToV: m(
[09:24] <MoL0ToV> k1l_: nothing appears
[09:25] <k1l_> MoL0ToV: dont use startx, that will break all file permissions
[09:25] <MoL0ToV> k1l_: ok, can you help me to debug?
[09:26] <k1l_> first is to look in the users home and see what is owned by root:root "ls -al"
[09:27] <MoL0ToV> nothing
[09:27] <MoL0ToV> yes... the directory .dbus
[09:28] <k1l_> chown that back to user:user
[09:28] <MoL0ToV> now i'm typing to webchat via a startx session
[09:29] <k1l_> then pastebin the dmesg and xorg.log from /var/log
[09:29] <k1l_> there must be a reason why loghtdm didnt start
[09:30] <MoL0ToV> ok
[09:32] <MoL0ToV> k1l_: dmesg http://paste.ubuntu.com/12425553/
[09:34] <MoL0ToV> k1l_: xorg.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/12425560/
[09:37] <EriC^^> try /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log

[09:52] <axsk> TJ-, ping u thr?
[09:55] <axsk> hi
[09:55] <wyoung> hi
[09:55] <axsk> what does because search permissions are missing on a component of the path mean? what permission I have to enable?
[09:56] <axsk> i have already enabled 755 on /home/user/public_html
[09:56] <axsk> and enabled userdir
[09:56] <wyoung> axsk: what permission does /home/user have?
[09:56] <wyoung> and /home
[09:56] <axsk> the default one. i did not do anything there.
[09:56] <axsk> ubuntu 15.04
[09:57] <wyoung> The default is usually 700 or 750.  You need to allow execute for others
[09:57] <wyoung> so chmod o+x /home/user
[09:57] <axsk> is it safe to chmod -R 755 on /home/user ?
[09:57] <wyoung> axsk: I don't recommend that.
[09:57] <axsk> you just said to change it above?
[09:58] <wyoung> other users don't need read permission in your home directory, just execute so they can traverse it
[09:58] <wyoung> I said o+x not 755
[09:58] <axsk> :-o
[09:58] <axsk> let me cancel it
[09:59] <wyoung> and dont use -R
[09:59] <wyoung> you only need to set it on /home/user
[09:59] <axsk> :-o
[09:59] <axsk> oh!
[10:00] <axsk> wyoung, ok. now it works. thanks.
[10:00] <wyoung> anytime
[10:05] <MoL0ToV> i installed gdm but typing gdmsetup says: command not found (ubuntu 12.04) howto fix?
[10:07] <nabdev> i have the some bug as this : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1049025 any suggestion how can i fix it (v14.04)?
[10:09] <MoL0ToV> i installed gdm but typing gdmsetup says: command not found (ubuntu 12.04) howto fix?
[10:10] <samgoody> I've generated a new user, and can't ssh in.
[10:10] <samgoody> This is something I've done 100sof times, but can't seem to get why this time it wont work.
[10:10] <samgoody> Is there some way to debug this?
[10:11] <ratrace> samgoody: you can use -v if you're using openssh client
[10:12] <ratrace> or increase logging verbosity on the server side
[10:12] <samgoody> Thanks, that was obvious but forgotten
[10:13] <ratrace> samgoody: most likely you forgot to unlock the user :)
[10:14] <samgoody> unlock the user? what do you mean?
[10:14] <ubuntuhelpme> Hi there, on my work computer recently, xubuntu has been interpreting left clicks as right clicks.
[10:14] <ratrace> samgoody: passwd -u <username>
[10:14] <ubuntuhelpme> Not every time I click, but sometimes.
[10:14] <ubuntuhelpme> What's the issue =(
[10:14] <cfhowlett> ubuntuhelpme, go into your keyboard settings and verify you didn't reverse orientation
[10:15] <ubuntuhelpme> cfhowlett, nope.
[10:15] <samgoody> i don't recall doing that in the past, and this is the first time ive had an issue.
[10:16] <ratrace> samgoody: are you using password or pubkey auth for ssh?
[10:16] <MoL0ToV> i installed gdm on ubuntu 12.04 but i cannot find gdmsetup or gdm-setup command... why? is included in another package?
[10:16] <ljosberinn> hi! i would like to add some module to my existing nginx installation - http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpHeadersMoreModule
[10:17] <samgoody> pubkey
[10:17] <ljosberinn> i just wonder is it possible to "include" this module in existing installation already or should i "re-compile" the whole app?
[10:17] <samgoody> ive added the public key to the users /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys
[10:18] <samgoody> and set perms on the .ssh folder to 600, on the authorized_keys to 400
[10:18] <ratrace> samgoody: .ssh folder must be 700
[10:19] <ratrace> and both must be owned by the user
[10:19] <ratrace> (or to be precise, .ssh has to be u+x, go-rwx is not needed but better to have)
[10:20] <samgoody> oops. i mean 700. and both are owned bby user
[10:20] <ratrace> samgoody: then -v on the client side is your best bet to find out the problem. could be the client side does not know which key to use?
[10:24] <samgoody> http://dpaste.com/0WFE8ZS - do you mind looking?
[10:25] <ratrace> samgoody: is 'RSAAuthentication yes' in sshd_config on the server?
[10:25] <ratrace> (and PubkeyAuthentication yes   btw)
[10:26] <samgoody> yes to both
[10:26] <samgoody> And I can ssh in as root
[10:27] <ratrace> samgoody: which Ubuntu version is this?
[10:28] <samgoody> I think 15, will check
[10:28] <ratrace> samgoody: well, if it's 15, check 'journalctl -u ssh.service' and see if it complains about anything
[10:28] <ratrace> otherwise check /var/log/auth.log iirc
[10:28] <samgoody> yes, vivid - Ubuntu 15.04
[10:29] <samgoody> unbeleivable!!!
[10:29] <ratrace> samgoody: ?
[10:30] <samgoody> Thanks, I did not even know about this - it says the user is invalid - because User deploy not allowed because shell /bin/fish does not exist
[10:30] <ratrace> ah.
[10:30] <samgoody> Somehow, when I tried to apply the default shell, I made the user invalid.
[10:31] <e-i-k-e> hi. how can i create a crc32 sum for plain text without storing the text in a file. crc32 < text_here does not work
[10:32] <e-i-k-e> and google is not that helpful at the moment. or i'm not using the correct search terms...
[10:32] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: 'man crc32'
[10:32] <samgoody> But the user is listed in /etc/passwd, so i dont know what to make of this
[10:32] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: you'll see it takes the file as argument, not through stdin
[10:32] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: ok. so crc32 is not capable... yep...
[10:33] <e-i-k-e> thank you
[10:33] <ratrace> samgoody: it complained about /bin/fish not existing. Is that true?
[10:34] <samgoody> yup, its true. Even though fish is installed and works
[10:34] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: i didn't know that it is distinguished between data coming from stdin or a file
[10:34] <ratrace> samgoody: 'whereis fish' will thell you the properpath
[10:35] <axsk> what happen to aws?
[10:35] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: I don't know if it does, but the manual seems to suggest the file is a regular argument, not taken in through stdin
[10:35] <afternoonwarrior> I'm using an hp spectre 13 x360 laptop,  would like to make a dual boot for ubuntu,  anyone know if ubuntu will also support all the touchscreen, going into tablet mode, and mouse trackpad functionality I have in win 10?
[10:35] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: okay, than i'll look for something ales
[10:36] <e-i-k-e> ***else
[10:36] <samgoody> It does. It exists in both /etc/fish and /usr/bin/fish, which should I use when setting the default shell?
[10:36] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: md5sum should be fast enough
[10:37] <ratrace> samgoody: ah /usr/bin/fish but you seem to have set /bin/fish as the shell for the user, fix that
[10:37] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: to be honest for what i'm going to do it doesn't matter as i'm just creating a hash once. but I thought why should i use an online tool instead of the cli
[10:38] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: not sure what you're trying to do, but if you need a checksum of some string, you can use md5sum. if you need a bit more crypto strength try sha512sum
[10:39] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: btw, trying 'crc32 < somefile' suggests you have a file, so just drop < .  otherwise it's 'echo "sometext" | ...'
[10:39] <afternoonwarrior> Anyone know if it will still work in ubuntu?
[10:39] <ratrace> and since crc32 doesn't take it, with md5sum you can echo 'sometext' | md5sum  but keep in mind that newline is added through that echo. use -n to drop it
[10:40] <hateball> afternoonwarrior: just live-boot and try
[10:41] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: don't laugh at me: as one of my other nicknames is in use i just thought instead of chosing an alternative just use crc32 as its output is really short. and i wanted to do it on the CLI because i thought one could
[10:41] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: so i'm sorry for wasting your time with my nonsense
[10:42] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: don't worry :) but if that's all you need, just do it through a temporary file.
[10:42] <afternoonwarrior> Will do, figured others here would probably also have touchscreen laptops running ubuntu or it's known to have  been added to ubuntu.  Thanks
[10:42] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: echo -n "sometext" > somefile && crc32 somefile && rm somefile
[10:43] <Myrtti> afternoonwarrior: I don't have that laptop but I do have one with a touchscreen, and it does work
[10:43] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: actually i did but the crc32 of the file is NEQ to the crc32 of the pure text that i get from online tools.
[10:44] <Myrtti> afternoonwarrior: to some values of 'work' - not all apps are usable by a long shot with touch
[10:44] <afternoonwarrior> Ah k
[10:44] <Myrtti> afternoonwarrior: I don't use it for anything, for example.
[10:45] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: probably newline, that's why I suggested -n
[10:45] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: ahh, ok.
[10:45] <afternoonwarrior> Any chance you also know about tablet mode?
[10:45] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: which online crc32 calc were you trying?
[10:46] <e-i-k-e> ratrace: first few i picked from google
[10:46] <e-i-k-e> but newline was the issue
[10:46] <ratrace> k.
[10:46] <e-i-k-e> thanks :)
[10:46] <Myrtti> afternoonwarrior: sorry, no
[10:46] <ratrace> e-i-k-e: np
[10:46] <afternoonwarrior> K thanks
[10:46] <afternoonwarrior> Will just try it out
[10:47] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[10:47] <samgoody> Am now getting a new error in jrnlcntrl:    error: key_verify: error in libcrypto
[10:49] <samgoody> pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=<IP_ADDRESS>  user=deploy
[10:50] <G6gt7> Speedyline Ltd
[10:51] <ratrace> samgoody: 'UsePAM no' in sshd_config if you're using pubkeys
[10:52] <samgoody> OK. What is pam?
[10:52] <kevhall> Im trying to install gnuradio using pybombs on a fresh install of ubuntu 14.04. I get the following error: "Python checking for Mako templates 0.4 or greater - "import mako" failed" . I've tried running "pip install mako" and trying again but I get the same error. Any suggestions?
[10:52] <ratrace> samgoody: an authentication framework, ask googs for more info
[10:54] <samgoody> I mean, did it change in ubuntu 15, because I realize that is what is different than in the past, and in the past I never had to edit sshd_config
[10:54] <shoaib> hello im using ubuntu gnome, im trying to install different themes but the top bar just wont change
[10:54] <ratrace> samgoody: I don't know, but PAM shouldn't be used anyway for pubkey auth
[10:54] <shoaib> help?
[10:55] <samgoody> Great. Do I need to restart the ssh service (and if so, what is it called)?
[10:55] <ratrace> samgoody: systemctl reload ssh
[10:56] <ratrace> samgoody: btw, if you never changed sshd_config, it's about time you learn you were open to password bruteforce regardless of your use of pubkey :)
[10:57] <ratrace> default config allows password authentication as well, and with PAM, there's that nasty keyboard-interactive vuln discovered recently that sidestepped ssh's check on number of retries.
[10:57] <samgoody> Could you point me to a good tutorial that I should go through?
[10:57] <samgoody> hmm, still didnt work, but I need to go.
[10:57] <ratrace> samgoody: I can't, ask googs, see what's there
[10:58] <samgoody> Thanks for the help. Alot. And will look into the sshd_cobnfig file some more, and that sounds really bad.
[10:59] <pauser> Hello, I really need help. I have /var in a separate partition with 52GB. But the real content (Files, Folders...) only contain 32GB  and the partition is full already. Where could the space go?
[10:59] <EriC^^> pauser: type du -i /var
[10:59] <ratrace> pauser: to inodes. df -i will tell you
[10:59] <EriC^^> *df -i
[11:00] <pauser> EriC^^: /dev/sda6        3.3M  543K  2.8M   17% /var
[11:01] <pauser> and df -h output is /dev/sda6        52G   50G  692K 100% /var
[11:01] <ratrace> pauser: and du -sh /var shows only 32GB in individual files?
[11:01] <EriC^^> pauser: there's probably a big log taking space
[11:02] <pauser> du -sh /var  ->    50G	/var
[11:03] <ratrace> pauser: so that's full alright. where did that 32GB come from?
[11:03] <EriC^^> pauser: type du -h /var | sort -h
[11:03] <EriC^^> it should list the biggest files at the bottom
[11:05] <pauser> A few days ago I created a new partition and moved stuff from /var to the new partition. Since than every thing is going bad
[11:06] <EriC^^> maybe there's a symlink to /var and it's being filled?
[11:06] <ratrace> pauser: your /var partition is full. Where did you get the 32GB figure from? anyway, you can use a tool like 'ncdu' to track down biggest disk space hogs quickly.
[11:06] <pauser> EriC^^: At the end   ->  25G	/var
[11:07] <pauser> ratrace: ok what do this do?
[11:07] <ratrace> pauser: what does what do?
[11:08] <EriC^^> pauser: it's a program, type sudo apt-get install ncdu to install it, then ncdu /var to launch it
[11:10] <pauser> Ok with that tool still /var has 24.6 GB but not 50GB content. Is it possible that I have some "imaginary files"
[11:11] <jonasliljestrand> Hi guys, is it normal that cpu interrupts for eth interfaces is only handled by a single core?
[11:13] <pauser> EriC^^: Do you maybe have any idea? Could there but a problem after moving /var to a new partition?
[11:14] <EriC^^> pauser: type mount | nc termbin.com 9999
[11:14] <ratrace> really....
[11:15] <pauser> EriC^^: this is the output? http://termbin.com/de4v
[11:16] <alistair> hello im trying to be able to point streaming software, (vlc or xawtv or whatever) to a hdmi in port, is there any way i can create a dev node from the lspci -v info? i cant find anything for it in sys/fs
[11:18] <EriC^^> pauser: are you able to create files right now? like touch /var/something?
[11:18] <pauser> EriC^^: yes as soon as they are not bigger than 600KB
[11:19] <EriC^^> pauser: did you try restarting?
[11:20] <pauser> I have this problem for more than a week now. Yes many times
[11:22] <ratrace> pauser: pastebin 'du -sh /var/*'
[11:22] <ratrace> (as root or prefix that with sudo)
[11:24] <alistair> can anyone help me make a dev node for my hdmi in port? :-)
[11:24] <pauser> ratrace: still all together are not above ~24.2. Different tools show different disk usage, example df und du. Something interesting is going on
[11:24] <EriC^^> pauser: type lsof -n | grep deleted
[11:25] <EriC^^> check if you have any huge files there
[11:25] <pauser> EriC^^: The list is too big . I can not see the head row for the description.
[11:27] <pauser> Should there be any files at all?
[11:27] <jhack> Does anyone else get freezes on their laptops after closing / opening the lid
[11:28] <EriC^^> pauser: try lsof -n | awk '/deleted/ {print $8,$10}'
[11:28] <EriC^^> first column is size
[11:28] <EriC^^> ( in bytes )
[11:28] <EriC^^> yeah those are files that were deleted but not released yet, du wouldn't see them but df would
[11:28] <EriC^^> since you've restarted though it doesn't make sense but it's worth a shot i guess
[11:29] <ratrace> EriC^^: maybe fsck the partition on reboot?
[11:29] <EriC^^> yeah sounds good
[11:29] <samgoody> OK, I got it to connect using the password, but not using pubkey
[11:30] <pauser> ratrace:  With live CD?
[11:30] <ratrace> pauser: no I think all you need is to touch /var/forcefsck  but I don't know if that works only for root partition or any. ask googs, or reboot into single user mode and fsck manually.
[11:32] <DucklingNo5> Hi :) I'm trying to run the leopard flower application firewall on my ubuntu 14.04 trusty. The lpfw file runs smoothly as root. But when I launch the gui as regular user I'm greeted with the following:
[11:32] <DucklingNo5> from: can't read /var/mail/PyQt4.QtGui
[11:32] <DucklingNo5> from: can't read /var/mail/PyQt4.QtCore
[11:32] <DucklingNo5> from: can't read /var/mail/PyQt4.QtNetwork
[11:32] <DucklingNo5> from: can't read /var/mail/multiprocessing
[11:32] <DucklingNo5> from: can't read /var/mail/base64
[11:33] <samgoody> Is there any reason not to disable password authentication for ssh login?
[11:33] <DucklingNo5> Anyone know how I'm messing up?
[11:34] <pauser> ratrace: fsck /dev/sda6 is enough?
[11:34] <Ben64> DucklingNo5: where did you get that application
[11:34] <DucklingNo5> Ben64, https://github.com/themighty1/lpfw
[11:34] <Ben64> then you should ask them for support
[11:35] <vooze> So i'm trying to update to kernel 4.2 in ubuntu, which sort of works fine. But after that my wifi (Broadcom) and graphics (Nvidia 980ti, so I need nvidia-355) don't work. How do I make sure these work with the new kernel?
[11:35] <cfhowlett> !ufw | DucklingNo5, not to mention UFW
[11:36] <Ben64> vooze: what version of ubuntu, where did you get the kernel
[11:36] <vooze> Ben64, 15.04
[11:36] <DucklingNo5> Ben64, it's more of a him I think. Was hoping to get this done now is the reason I'm asking here. cfhowlett, thanks :) I'll check it out
[11:36] <cfhowlett> DucklingNo5, happy2help!
[11:37] <Ben64> vooze: you might have to manually install drivers then
[11:37] <discovered> i have installed proftpd. I want to configure the partition "/dev/sda8" for user "alish" .... how do i do this?
[11:37] <Skadodle> Hello
[11:38] <Skadodle> I'm running Ubuntu server and just installed Lubuntu GUI from the terminal over SSH. How do I enable the GUI?
[11:38] <vooze> Ben64, do I need to do that after each kernel upgrade (like 3.19.28 - 3.19.29) or just when using a kernel from mainline ?
[11:38] <Ben64> vooze: you said you were running 4.2?
[11:38] <axsk> Skadodle, you mean enable in the server or enable in your local machine from where you are sshing to server?
[11:38] <vooze> Ben64, yes
[11:38] <vooze> from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.2-unstable/
[11:38] <Skadodle> axsk: Enable on server. My local machine is Windows
[11:38] <Ben64> vooze: so i don't get the question. why ask about 3.19
[11:39] <axsk> Skadodle, once you install it, it will be automatically enabled on next restart.
[11:39] <Ben64> Skadodle: you want it to display on the monitor attached to the server?
[11:39] <ioria> DucklingNo5, have you read the README.md ?  "Run `lpfw` as root. Run python `gui/gui.py` as regular user."
[11:39] <vooze> Just asking if the problem is because I upgraded to a non-standard kernel, or it will happen with all kernels?
[11:39] <Skadodle> Ben64: Yes
[11:39] <Skadodle> I'm rebooting now
[11:40] <Skadodle> So is PuTTY able to show GUI?
[11:40] <DucklingNo5> ioria, that's what I'm doing
[11:40] <Ben64> Skadodle: depending on exactly what you installed, something like "sudo service lightdm start"
[11:40] <Ben64> Skadodle: no, putty is for command line
[11:40] <DucklingNo5> ioria, make went smoothly
[11:40] <Ben64> vooze: yes, the problem is you're not using an ubuntu kernel
[11:41] <Skadodle> Ben64: I installed Lubuntu with this command sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends lubuntu-desktop
[11:43] <pauser> ratrace: I restarted in single mode and executed the fsck command but the space is still not there. Do you have any other suggestion?
[11:43] <Ben64> Skadodle: then the command i gave you earlier should start it
[11:43] <Skadodle> Failed to start lightdm.service: Unit lightdm.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
[11:44] <ratrace> pauser: only rsync (with -a flag!) the data to external backup, nuke and reformat the partition, restore data from backup
[11:45] <pauser> ratrace: Eric.: Thanks for the help. have a nice day!
[11:45] <Skadodle> Ben64: Failed to start lightdm.service: Unit lightdm.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
[11:46] <Ben64> Skadodle: where is the server
[11:46] <Skadodle> On a VPS
[11:46] <Ben64> what video card does it have
[11:46] <Ben64> so... you lied earlier
[11:46] <Skadodle> Noo, I'm connecting from my Windows machine
[11:46] <Skadodle> The server is a Ubuntu VPS
 Skadodle: you want it to display on the monitor attached to the server? \\\ <Skadodle> Ben64: Yes
[11:47] <Skadodle> Yes, I thought that if it's displayed on the server's monitor and I connect via RDP, then the dislpa will show up
[11:47] <ioria> DucklingNo5, error in gui.py maybe ... no shabang
[11:47] <Ben64> it doesn't have a monitor
[11:48] <ioria> DucklingNo5, try to add at top #!/usr/bin/python, or where you have the binary
[11:48] <Skadodle> No it doesnt
[11:48] <DucklingNo5> ioria, damn, I was hoping for some shabang
[11:49] <DucklingNo5> I'll check it, 2 sec
[11:49] <Skadodle> Ben64: So what should I do?
[11:49] <Ben64> run a vnc server on <IP_ADDRESS> and connect to it over an ssh tunnel
[11:50] <DucklingNo5> ioria, Damn dude!!! :D It runs
[11:50] <ioria> DucklingNo5, ok ... but are you sure you need it ? :-)
[11:50] <Skadodle> So the GUI is enabled on the server now just that I can't see it?
[11:50] <Ben64> nope, there is no gui because there is no monitor
[11:51] <DucklingNo5> ioria, If I don't need it now, I will in the future. I like to know what my computers are connecting to
[11:51] <ioria> DucklingNo5, ok
[11:52] <DucklingNo5> ioria, You're awesome by the way. Wouldn't have thought to check that ;)
[11:53] <ioria> DucklingNo5, thanx ... :þ no worries, it happens ...
[11:54] <Skadodle> Ben64 Do you think you can help me out a bit? I have an .exe which I want to run on a VPS. I figured cheapest alternative would be a Linux VPS with a Windows Server Virtual Machine installed, right?
[11:55] <Ben64> sounds like a bad idea
[11:55] <Skadodle> But Windows VPS are so much more expensive
[11:55] <Ben64> seems doubtful your vps could handle it
[11:56] <Skadodle> I have a 6 GB RAM 4 cores VPS
[11:56] <ratrace> it can't. you can't nest virtualizations required.
[11:56] <hateball> perhaps it runs in wine
[11:56] <ratrace> ^^^
[11:56] <Skadodle> It doesn't :(
[11:56] <hateball> upgrade the application to be linuxcompatible then
[11:57] <Skadodle> That's not possible, its a very big project
[11:57] <Skadodle> I'm currently paying over $35 per month for a shitty Windows 4 GB RAM 1 core VPS.
[11:57] <ratrace> that's not bad
[11:57] <hateball> Surely big projects can afford to run the platform they are written for
[11:57] <Skadodle> and I need another one, i would like to not pay $70 per month just for VPSs :(
[11:58] <ratrace> Skadodle: at that price point, consider running a dedicated server and do kvm yourself
[11:58] <fritz4fun> I'm using ubuntu with virtualbox. How to have the changed keyboard layout stored even if I reboot
[11:59] <vooze> So after install kernel 4.2 from ubuntu mainline it did not work after loggin in. I then rebooted and selected 3.19.28 again, but now my user an only see the desktop. Its like gtk is missing or something?  How do I reset it or something?
[11:59] <Skadodle> ratrace: Isn't dedicated servers much more expensive than VPS+
[12:00] <ratrace> Skadodle: they are, but if you need to run TWO instances, at that price point ($70/mo) you can get a dedicated server and run more than two
[12:00] <Skadodle> I dont think I will ever have to run more than two instances in the future
[12:01] <Skadodle> But why are Windows VPS so DAMN expensive? Linux VPS are like half the price and double better hardware
[12:01] <bazhang> !ot | Skadodle
[12:01] <k1l_> Skadodle: licence costs and more hardware requirements
[12:02] <Skadodle> k1l_: Yea, that license ofc... But Windows can't use thaaaaaat much more resources than Liniux
[12:02] <cfhowlett> Skadodle, as it's offtopic in this channel ... shall we discuss ubuntu-support??
[12:03] <Skadodle> Its just 1 question...
[12:03] <cfhowlett> nonetheless offtopic.  feel free to continue in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:05] <rpm_33> Need help installing Dell Drivers on 14.04LTS. Dell Tech support is useless. Using Dell Recovery tool, installer hangs forever on "preparing to install package".
[12:06] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, those drivers are available as .debs are they not?
[12:06] <rpm_33> cfhowlett, yes but I don't know which one is which. They have these long names that I can't relate to the specific hardware.
[12:07] <ioria> rpm_33 TJ- told us to give you this reference https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1496027
[12:08] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, right.  you should subscribe to that bug, by the way
[12:09] <rpm_33> Can anybody make sense of the driver package - cfhowlett, you have an M3800 right?
[12:09] <cfhowlett> I do.
[12:09] <cfhowlett> sadly never had the issues you are experiencing though.
[12:10] <hateball> And like I mentioned the other day, it works like it should in 15.04 so you could just do-release-upgrade unless you must remain on 14.04
[12:10] <cfhowlett> I also downloaded the DELL .debs package
[12:10] <hateball> (without any special drivers)
[12:11] <rpm_33> cfhowlett what's that? have they changed the driver package they publish since you did it?
[12:12] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, not 100% what you're referring to, but you (?) posted a link last a day or 2 ago with, I assume, ALL of the custom .debs Dell adds to the plain vanilla ubuntu for the m3800 precision
[12:12] <rpm_33> This is one of the items in the directory "installer" inside the Dell driver package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/amd64/feh/download
[12:13] <scoundtats> rpm_33: yep
[12:13] <rpm_33> There are like 20 of these things I have no idea what's what
[12:13] <asd> how to install dpkg and apt from source code?
[12:13] <scoundtats> asd: why
[12:14] <fritz4fun> to test internet connection on a server, do you use ping to test it. Best practice ?
[12:14] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, for starters: apt show (package name)          >>> apt show feh                  gives a description
[12:14] <cfhowlett> !server | fritz4fun
[12:15] <asd> because i have lfs and i'd like to make dpkg and apt my package manager to install from my private repository
[12:15] <adac> I keep getting redirected to adaos-ads.net with firefox
[12:15] <adac> anyone else has this problems?
[12:15] <k1l_> adac: remove all plugins
[12:16] <rpm_33> linux-generic_<IP_ADDRESS>.45_amd64.deb is in a directory called "kernel" - what are these there are 8 of them.
[12:16] <rpm_33> ?
[12:16] <adac> k1l_, kk thanks
[12:17] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, also, clicking on a .deb should trigger ubuntu software center and give a description.  I suspect you want the driver that specifically references wifi on the intel platform
[12:17] <rpm_33> cfhowlett don't I need them all?
[12:17] <asd> scoundtats: do u know how to install dpkg and apt from source code?
[12:17] <cfhowlett> I seriously doubt ti
[12:17] <k1l_> asd: better ask the lfs community how to get apt and dpkg working
[12:17] <cfhowlett> it
[12:18] <asd> in ubuntu, how to do this?
[12:18] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, many of these packages are one time use / first boot and or were later rolled into ubuntu upstream so no longer needed
[12:18] <k1l_> asd: in ubuntu the packages come preinstalled
[12:18] <asd> ok. thx
[12:19] <k1l_> asd: and if you want to compile from source you use the sources that the maintainer already made working for the ubuntu setup. sorry but this is totally different from lfs approach
[12:24] <smartass> hi, how does LTS compare with Debian stable in terms of version and functionality stability?
[12:24] <cfhowlett> !lts | smartass
[12:25] <smartass> cfhowlett: thank you, but I don't see how that answers my question
[12:25] <Seveas> smartass: like apples and oranges. Both are linux distributions that get security updates for several years, but they're managed completely differently and have different objectives.
[12:25] <Seveas> smartass: ubuntu's releases come at a more predictable schedule. I think that's the main difference.
[12:26] <smartass> Seveas: I know they are different, but I haven't found any concrete information about version and functionality stability policy for LTS
[12:26] <rpm_33> I'm falling apart here. This 3000 dollar laptop is now permentantly castrated because I overwrote the Dell drivers, and Dell is too useless to provide any means of reinstalling them. So I'll never have proper networking, never use my Nvidia GPUs. It's just all down the drain.
[12:26] <cfhowlett> false
[12:26] <cfhowlett> completely, I might add
[12:27] <rpm_33> you talking to me cfhowlett?
[12:28] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, of course.  at worst case, download and install 14.04.3  but DO NOT install the grub bootloader.  boot your usb and update grub then reboot from the hdd.  run the "additional drivers" utility and your nvidia drivers will be installed.
[12:29] <Seveas> smartass: there will be no version upgrades of packages[*], only security updates and targeted bugfixes. [*]exceptions are firefox, maybe chromium, and there are often newer kernels available for LTS releases.
[12:29] <cfhowlett> OR restore to factory settings, restart and sudo apt full-upgrade to get to 14.04.3
[12:30] <rpm_33> cfhowlett you've lost me completely. I have 14.04 on a bootable stick. But how can I install Ubuntu without its bootloader? I already have a Win7 bootloader, but I think GRUB comes first.
[12:30] <smartass> Seveas: sounds a lot like Debian stable in that respect .. or is there some difference?
[12:30] <cfhowlett> let's NOT discuss windows!
[12:30] <ioria> smartass, http://askubuntu.com/questions/1336/how-is-ubuntu-different-from-debian
[12:30] <Seveas> smartass: it is a lot like debian stable, but on a more regular release schedule.
[12:31] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, you have an OLD version of ubuntu, thus my suggestion to upgrade to 14.04.3 via clean install.  and YES you can install ubuntu without installing a bootloader.
[12:31] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, question: did you get the ubuntu or windows version m3800?
[12:31] <rpm_33> cfhowlett well ha ha but this is relevant - I need my Win7 partition to remain. If I do these funny clean installs and mess with bootloaders, I risk losing Win7.
[12:31] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, false.
[12:32] <rpm_33> cfhowlett I got the Ubuntu version of course.
[12:32] <cfhowlett> at worst, you temporarily lose the ability to boot but this is easily fixable.
[12:32] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, make your life easy: use the "restore to factory settings" option in grub.
[12:33] <rpm_33> cfhowlett, when I first switch on, I see GRUB, which gives me the ability to choose Ubuntu or Win7.
[12:33] <cfhowlett> rpm_33, advanced option?
[12:33] <smartass> ioria: too general, I was asking about a concrete aspect, see above
[12:33] <rpm_33> But I overwrote all the recovery stuff... Hold on let me check what it says...
[12:33] <ioria> smartass, oh...
[12:33] <KCmetro> no responses in #fluxbox, although I'm presently using ubuntu, anybody using the combo of the two?
[12:34] <KCmetro> My fluxbox menu pops up when I right click on the screen, yet it won't go away.
[12:34] <KCmetro> Any idea how to force it?
[12:35] <rpm_33> cfhowlett under Advanced, I have 4 options 2 are duplicates: Ubuntu, with Linux 3.19.0-28-generic and Ubuntu, with Linux 3.19.0-28-generic (recovery mode)
[12:37] <ioria> KCmetro, esc ?
[12:37] <KCmetro> nope
[12:37] <KCmetro> waiiiit
[12:37] <rpm_33> cfhowlett I have Ubuntu, Advanced Options for Ubuntu, Memory Test (memtest86+), Memory Test serial console, Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda1)
[12:37] <KCmetro> it was verrrrry delayed
[12:38] <KCmetro> ok dang this computer is ancient
[12:38] <MonkeyDust> smartass  a lot of other people have asked the same question, here's one answer http://askubuntu.com/questions/15314/debian-stable-vs-ubuntu-lts-for-server
[12:38] <shoot2kill> Hey all im trying to share files between a windows 7 machine and my ubuntu machine
[12:38] <MonkeyDust> smartass  and her's more https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ubuntu+vs+debian&t=canonical
[12:38] <shoot2kill> having no luck
[12:38] <shoot2kill> can anyone help
[12:39] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, what have you done to get this to work so far?
[12:39] <shoot2kill> right clicked on the computers added share permissions
[12:39] <ioria> KCmetro, what are you using, if i may ?
[12:40] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, I'm assuming you used a guide similar to this: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/05/ubuntu1404-file-sharing-samba/ ?
[12:40] <KCmetro> hardware's an old (very old) dell... OS is ubuntu's 15.04 + current fluxbox WM
[12:40] <shoot2kill> i did install samba
[12:40] <KCmetro> technically I have all the other stuff installed with the default 15.04 but just using fluxbox for simplicity
[12:40] <shoot2kill> but not sure what or how to configure that
[12:40] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, ok... there's more to it.
[12:40] <ioria> KCmetro, cat /proc/pcuinfo ?
[12:41] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, have a look at the link I just sent and follow it thoroughly. it should work.
[12:41] <shoot2kill> ok just so ya know
[12:41] <shoot2kill> i can access ubuntu from the windows computer now
[12:41] <shoot2kill> but i cant access the windows computer from the ubuntu machine
[12:41] <jnoob22> ah
[12:41] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, sorry mate
[12:42] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, then you do the opposite sort of... make sure smb on windows 7 is turned on
[12:42] <shoot2kill> smb?4
[12:42] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, share the folder in windows7 as an smb drive
[12:42] <shoot2kill> smb?
[12:42] <jnoob22> small message block protocol ;)
[12:43] <KCmetro> ohhhh CPU... it's an Intel Xeon L5420, 2.5GHz
[12:43] <shoot2kill> ok how do i do that
[12:43] <jnoob22> which is where samba sort of gets its name as well
[12:43] <ioria> shoot2kill, usually if the contrary .... :)
[12:43] <ioria> *is
[12:43] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, see windows support ;-)
[12:43] <shoot2kill> ok
[12:43] <shoot2kill> will do
[12:43] <ioria> shoot2kill, windows 7 should habe a pre-shared folder in Public...
[12:44] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, see first post here -> http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=63123
[12:44] <smartass> MonkeyDust: thank you, but that does not answer the version/functionality  stability policy aspect of my question, it addresses the longevity of the release
[12:44] <jnoob22> once you get that working or confirm it, do a mount from unbuntu: mount -t cifs //windows7hostname/shared_folder /my/local/mountpoint
[12:45] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, ^^
[12:45] <MonkeyDust> smartass  longevity? 5 years for an LTS... or is that not what you mean?
[12:45] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, on ubuntu you'll likely need to install a cifs file system utility
[12:45] <axsk> KCmetro, you might want to try something minimal like Slitaz!
[12:45] <shoot2kill> why does it have to be so painful ....sighs
[12:46] <axsk> KCmetro, in ubuntu you can try i3
[12:46] <axsk> shoot2kill, cause windows.....
[12:46] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, heh heh it should be. it's a computer ;-) a precision piece of equipment
[12:46] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, not a darned stereo or entertainment appliance ;)
[12:46] <jnoob22> sudo apt-get install  libsmbclient
[12:47] <KCmetro> never heard of slitaz, I'll look into it, but I don't need to change out right now. Fluxbox is as minimal as it gets. The issue I'm experiencing that I have to run several apps on the old machine.
[12:47] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, in case you don't have it installed already
[12:47] <shoot2kill> well i can access the ubuntu system on windows...you would think viewing the windows computer on ubuntu would be as easay
[12:47]  * cfhowlett thinks "DAMMIT man!  It's a computer, not an walkman!"
[12:47] <shoot2kill> easy
[12:47] <KCmetro> including a Windows virtual machine
[12:47] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, no way... windows makes this stuff easy because it's dumbed-down
[12:47] <smartass> MonkeyDust: I was asking about the version/functionality stability policy
[12:47] <jnoob22> shoot2kill, not that i hate windows really
[12:48] <axsk> KCmetro, try i3
[12:48] <ioria> KCmetro, sudo dmidecode -t memory | grep Maximum
[12:48] <KCmetro> oh the WM
[12:48] <KCmetro> gotcha
[12:48] <MonkeyDust> smartass  i guess nobody gets what you mean by that, or what kind of answer you're expecting... better start a thread on a forum
[12:48] <KCmetro> ok i'll add it to the list :)
[12:48] <nickname26661> whats the latest lts version ?
[12:48] <axsk> !lts
[12:48] <KCmetro> Maximum Capacity: 64 GB
[12:49] <nickname26661> !trusty
[12:49] <ioria> KCmetro, and how much you have it now ?   free
[12:49] <nickname26661> ok thank you
[12:50] <nickname26661> i'm on 14.04
[12:50] <KCmetro> according to top, 320000 mem free, 7000000 swap free
[12:51] <axsk> 64 Gb is your RAM?
[12:51] <KCmetro> no
[12:51] <axsk> hmm
[12:51] <ioria> axsk .... no it's the maximun supported
[12:51] <axsk> ok
[12:51] <KCmetro> okay, "free -m" --> total memory = 8GB, used = 7.7GB, free = 200MB
[12:52] <nickname26661> is there a channel for ubuntu server?
[12:52] <Bernzel> How do I cd to dir's with "(" in them? I get token error
[12:52] <KCmetro> and that's with swap = 8GB total, 600MB used, .=7.5GB free
[12:52] <cfhowlett> !server  | nickname26661
[12:52] <KCmetro> i had to reserve 4 gigs of memory for the windows Vm
[12:52] <KCmetro> VM
[12:52] <ioria> KCmetro, you are good, i think
[12:52] <nickname26661> thank you cfhowlett
[12:53] <KCmetro> Bernzel maybe try \( or \ then tab key
[12:53] <cfhowlett> happy2help!  nickname26661
[12:53] <KCmetro> I think it's \ tab
[12:53] <ioria> KCmetro, how many applications are you running in the same time ?
[12:53] <KCmetro> not many right now
[12:53] <KCmetro> lol I shut down a lot of it
[12:54] <KCmetro> It's mostly "resource"-heavy apps, network utils
[12:54] <KCmetro> well, and streaming videos & music
[12:54] <ioria> KCmetro, yep your ram is almost out....
[12:54] <KCmetro> lol
[12:55] <ioria> KCmetro, don't know your needs... but maybe add some banks

[13:05] <nickname26661> i can get commercial support from canocical?  this makes sense that company exists :O
[13:05] <shoot2kill> sorry about that. i trying to access files on a windows 7 machine from ubuntu. i can access ubuntu from the windows 7 machine.
[13:06] <hateball> shoot2kill: Have a look in the Windows 7 machines event log, it should give some hints. Perhaps your Ubuntu machine are passing the wrong credentials, an invalid domain or something
[13:06] <shoot2kill> how do i access the event log on the windows machine
[13:06] <Augustas> k1l_ what should i do now?
[13:07] <Mathisen> shoot2kill, control pannnel -- administrator tools --- event log
[13:09] <shoot2kill> ok so under windows logs
[13:09] <shoot2kill> which one am i looking for.
[13:13] <rpm_33> About my WIFI/networking issues. I've been trying ALL DAY to connect to my home WIFI - hasn't worked. Then I try to connect to my Dad's Android tether - connects instantly. What's the deal?
[13:14] <rpm_33> And once it connected to Android, I was able to switch networks and it connected to home WIFI very quick.
[13:14] <rpm_33> But before that - literally ALL DAY watching the "connecting" animation in the top-right of the screen
[13:15] <MonkeyDust> rpm_33  "all day"? there's a world outide your door, with living, breathing, talking people...
[13:15] <rpm_33> MonkeyDust and I hate them all.

[14:11] <rpm_33_> quick question: when I install programs with "sudo apt-get install <program name>" where does it get downloaded and installed to?
[14:12] <EriC^^> rpm_33_: the .deb files go to /var/cache/apt/archives and the program files go to various locations like /usr/bin and /usr/share/...
[14:13] <lotuspsychje> good afternoon EriC^^
[14:13] <EriC^^> afternoon lotuspsychje
[14:13] <rpm_33_> EriC^^ Are the "various locations" determined by whats in the .deb package then?
[14:13] <EriC^^> rpm_33_: yeah
[14:13] <rpm_33_> okie dokie thanks was just curious.
[14:18] <claudio_> hello

[14:22] <zykotick9> admin0: try "free" without the -m is it 64 - this is just a math/hardware issue, you aren't missing any ram
[14:22] <k1l_> admin0: byte vs bit?

[14:26] <fritz4fun> If I adjust the keyboard layout in ubuntu and make a reboot the keyboard layout got reset. how to prevent that?

[14:28] <hrzhu> I just failed to resuming from hibernate, where can I check the log file?

[14:29] <ioria> admin0, dmesg | grep BIOS | grep reserved
[14:29] <admin0> got it
[14:30] <admin0> so this cannot be used by the OS at al
[14:30] <jonasliljestrand> daftykins: So if my cpu is using Message Signaled Interrupts then?
[14:41] <srikar_> I have a problem with my ubuntu

[15:06] <srikar_> ioria: yeah I installed docker
[15:06] <daftykins> nothing wrong with dist-upgrade in production :) given your ace backups
[15:06] <ioria> srikar_, can you assign a static ip to your wifi card ?
[15:07] <srikar_> ioria: I dont know how :O

[15:08] <daftykins> srikar_: you went straight to install? well give it a try
[15:09] <srikar_> daftykins: I dont think it is the problem with wireless hardware 'coz wifi works fine on windows 7. I am running dual boot
[15:09] <daftykins> srikar_: think what is the problem? live session will use a slightly older kernel :)
[15:09] <srikar_> daftykins: I have installed it long back and it was working fine till yesterday
[15:09] <daftykins> boot an older kernel then.
[15:10] <daftykins> ioria: when not associated to a network how will that help? :)
[15:10] <srikar_> ioria: I cant even select the network.
[15:11] <daftykins> older kernel it is!
[15:11] <srikar_> daftykins: sure, I will try that
[15:11] <srikar_> daftykins: I think I did a apt-get upgrade yesterday

[15:22] <zykotick9> MonkeyDust: s/tor/torbrowser/
[15:22] <avilba> MonkeyDust, It warns that config.ini doesn't exist but create the file anyway. I think the problem is with OpenGL.
[15:22] <srikar_> ioria: I ran those commands and still no difference
[15:23] <MonkeyDust> zykotick9  yes, that's more accurate
[15:23] <MordepedroM> thanks for the help this chat is great

[15:37] <ShikharB> zykotick9: Can we have more than one chrootdirectory for one single group but for different people. Or if we can not, then how can I give add other chrootdirectory for other group? How many groups/chrootdirectories can we have?
[15:37] <lotuspsychje> motz: wich ubuntu version?
[15:37] <motz> lotuspsychje, 14.04
[15:37] <zykotick9> ShikharB: sorry, I don't know.  I haven't had much use in chroots for a long time.  Good luck.
[15:37] <ShikharB> Ah, sorry
[15:38] <lotuspsychje> motz: not sure, maybe try gksudo nautilus on it?
[15:38] <ShikharB> Anyone?
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> This new web interface is nice
[15:39] <lotuspsychje> ActionParsnip: same url?
[15:39] <motz> lotuspsychje, I've already trid
[15:39] <motz> lotuspsychje, I've already triwd
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> lotuspsychje: yeah, webchat.freenode.net
[15:39] <ioria> srikar_, if it's not a firmware issue, you can try to assign the essid , password,  a static ip  and the other data ... from the network icon in the upper panel  - righ-click 'edit Connection'
[15:39] <motz> lotuspsychje, I've already tried
[15:40] <lotuspsychje> motz: might be like k1l_ says then, generation issue
[15:40] <ioria> srikar_, click Add - wifi - and proceed
[15:40] <lotuspsychje> motz: re-ask your issue in chat here once in a while
[15:41] <motz> hi, I have permission problems with my ipod (3rd generation) on ubuntu 14.04.  any hints?
[15:41] <lotuspsychje> motz: i have connected recent iphones on 14.04 without problem
[15:41] <srikar_> ioria: i am not sure what you meant
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> motz: can you expand the question please
[15:41] <ioria> srikar_, right-click on the Network Icon
[15:42] <lotus-webchat> looks nicer indeed
[15:42] <srikar_> ioria: I am using gnome and there is no add button :()
[15:42] <motz> ActionParsnip, the ipod_control folder is read-only and its owner is "99". And I am not able to change this settings, not even with chown as root
[15:43] <ioria> srikar_, ok ... Network Connection, then in Preferences or System Settings
[15:44] <ActionParsnip> motz: when you last unplugged the device, did you use the safe remove feature in the OS before physically unplugging it?
[15:44] <tgm4883> motz: that sounds like a folder that is on your ipod
[15:44] <motz> ActionParsnip, I don't remember
[15:44] <ActionParsnip> motz: then you probably didnt. Its a concious thing
[15:44] <ioria> srikar_, basically, you have to create a new configuration for your wireless card
[15:45] <srikar_> ioria: I understand what you meant by adding now but my mouse pointer is getting disabled on the network preferences screen
[15:45] <motz> ActionParsnip, so?
[15:45] <pacmyc> Hi there! Quick question, I love the "sticky notes" program xpad. Would it be possible to use the command "ln -s" it's config folder to a folder on a NAS drive, to have the xpad-sessions synced on all my local computers, and if so, what happens when Iam not connected to the LAN and add a note; will the symbolic link break and never get "re-linked" ?
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> motz: plug the system back in to your Windows PC (I assume Windows) and let the iPod do whatever junk ipods do, then use the system tray icon and use the safe remove feature
[15:45] <lotuspsychje> lol
[15:45] <ActionParsnip> motz: when you are told to do so, unplug the device
[15:45] <motz> ActionParsnip, I don't have windows: just mac and ubuntu
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> motz: then plug it into the mac and use the safe remove there
[15:46] <motz> ActionParsnip, ok
[15:47] <kartik> #uduntu
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> motz: seems you do it by dragging the ipod to the trash
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> motz: because it makes so much sense.....
[15:47] <ioria> srikar_, close and try again.... you have to fill all the fields : essdi < your lan>   , password in Security,   then ip <IP_ADDRESS> mask <IP_ADDRESS> gateway <IP_ADDRESS> dns <IP_ADDRESS>
[15:48] <srikar_> ioria: I am also not able to shutdown my system completely, when I shutdown, it stops at a screen which has ubuntu logs and keeps blinking forever
[15:48] <ioria> srikar_, ip  <IP_ADDRESS> not 137 , sorry
[15:48] <ActionParsnip> srikar_: if you run:  sudo shutdown -h now     does it die?
[15:49] <ioria> srikar_, that it's related to wifi , i think
[15:49] <srikar_> ActionParsnip: nope
[15:49] <srikar_> ioria: I think so
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> srikar_: does the system have a make and model?
[15:51] <ioria> brb
[15:51] <srikar_> ActionParsnip: yeah
[15:52] <srikar_> ActionParsnip: Dell inspriron: 15-5547
[15:56] <motz> ActionParsnip, nothing changed
[15:56] <w30> Thumbs up to whomever put Cinnamon desktop in the repos. It's awsome for an old codger like me that can't adapt to Unity.
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> motz: is the file system healthy?
[15:57] <k1l_> w30: cinnamon got some issues with compatibility. mate-desktop seems to be the technical better solution.
[15:57] <ActionParsnip> srikar_: let me search
[15:57] <srikar_> ActionParsnip: Yeah sure.
[15:57] <emc> HOLA
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> !es | emc
[15:58] <ActionParsnip> srikar_: have you tried the boot option:    noapic
[15:58] <emc> alguien que sepa de ubuntu studio?
[15:58] <ActionParsnip> srikar_: also, make sure you have the latest BIOS
[15:58] <w30> k1l_, I ripped out Nautilus and Unity and seem to be ok except for Woobly windows extension (no biggie)
[15:58] <nabn> hi. I think I have a broken disk.  the 'disks' program shows a 'Self-test failed' message on red. what do i do? is wiping out the disk a good idea? is there any other way to fix this? I'm booting from a live disk. There's some data on a partition that i'd like to backup, but it's not mounting. I tried a ntfsfix, but it says i should run a chkdsk from windows cli.  It had an audio loop saying the same. It would not let you close the browser either. I have run into this before on a windows pc and was able to get rid of the malware....but I am not used to linux yet.
[16:03] <srikar_> ioria: nope I am trying to restart the PC. Thinking that wifi is related to it
[16:03] <Rafen> Has anyone else encountered this and do I need to go nuts checking this pc?
[16:04] <w30> I thought wobbly windows, ubuntu, and cinnamon was a support question?
[16:04] <Rafen> I am running Ubuntu 14.04
[16:04] <lotuspsychje> w30: you have been aswered already by k1l_
[16:05] <w30> lotuspsychje, whatever.....
[16:06] <lotuspsychje> Rafen: normally browser malware cant get very far on ubuntu, but you might wanna try clamav or rkhunter
[16:06] <lotuspsychje> Rafen: was it on firefox?
[16:06] <Rafen> thank you lotuspsychje
[16:06] <Rafen> I was in Chrome
[16:07] <lotuspsychje> Rafen: try chromium for ubuntu
[16:07] <lotuspsychje> !info chromium-browser | Rafen
[16:07] <Rafen> I will give it a shot, thank you
[16:08] <Rafen> I do have to say in the past on windows, once infected when you surf the web it would constantly redirect you to that site...and on Ubuntu it has not happend.
[16:08] <lotuspsychje> Rafen: always be prudent not to click on ads certanly while your on pc banking and never call random phone numbers
[16:08] <lotuspsychje> Rafen: windows malware will not affect ubuntu in this way
[16:09] <motz> ActionParsnip, I think the problem is that the whole filesystem is mount as read-only
[16:09] <Rafen> I am very prudent, this was a simple typo trying to get to steam install.
[16:10] <lotuspsychje> !steam | Rafen
[16:10] <Rafen> thx again
[16:10] <samsher> after installing nvidea 304.xx drivers plymouth screen becomes horrible looking, can I stop happening it before installation of the nvidea driver?
[16:11] <lotuspsychje> !recovery | samsher
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> samsher: nvidia, not nvidea
[16:11] <samsher> nvidia sorry
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> samsher: tis is common with the proprietary video driver
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> samsher: you can either mess with your boot to make it load the vesa driver (hard) or disable plymouth and have text boot (easy)
[16:13] <samsher> ok, so no way to prevent happening it?
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> samsher: the driver loads slowly and makes it happen. Are you planning to game on the install?
[16:14] <samsher> I am planning to fresh install lubuntu, so I asked if there is any way to stop happening it.
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> samsher: if you remove the boot options:  quiet splash      you will get a text boot
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> samsher: if you dont need 3D capabilities like the Nvidia driver gives, then just use the nouveau driver instead
[16:15] <samsher> I don't want text mode
[16:15] <samsher> nouveau doesn't work, it's laggy for me
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> samsher: try this: http://www.binarytides.com/ubuntu-fix-nvidia-graphics/
[16:16] <samsher> any way plymouth use nouveu then system use nvidia driver?
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> samsher: or this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/6033/enabling-nvidia-driver-messes-up-splash-screen
[16:16] <samsher> let me see it
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> samsher: considering Linux is made for uptime, and that boot splashesare quite inconsequential, I'm surprised you care
[16:17] <samsher> yup, that's my preferences
[16:18] <lotuspsychje> samsher: wich graphics card do you have?
[16:18] <ActionParsnip> samsher: seems obscure to want to mess with your OS so much, just for some mild eytecandy that is onscreen for what...3 seconds?
[16:19] <samsher> haha, just curious to know
[16:26] <zykotick9> samsher: <sidenote> it is _possible_ to get plymouth working with nvidia - but it's *not* worth the effort...  i haven't done it in years, so don't know the modern procedure...
[16:28] <twdatsbas> zykotick9: sidenote. It just works now. samsher
[16:29] <theseb> help! windows did an automatic upgrade and now my nice dual boot
[16:29] <theseb>          system doesn't load winders anymore?!
[16:29] <zykotick9> twdatsbas: nouveau or propretary?  it works fine with nouveau (most of the time)
[16:30] <lotuspsychje> theseb: ask in ##windows what went wrong perhaps
[16:31] <lotuspsychje> theseb: ..or make your life easy and single install ubuntu :p
