[15:46] <donald> lotuspsychje: I wish I could but I'm not sure if it'll be able to burn this image to a CD, if it has already spoiled some of them.
[15:46] <donald> lotuspsychje: destroying the next one would make me angry
[15:48] <pars> donald : installed bugt no use
[15:48] <donald> pars: why no use? I have to go, but try to output the exact output here (use pastebin, if more than 2 lines) and people here are likely to help you
[15:48] <BluesKaj> donald, can't you copy the usb image or find that image source and burn it to a disc ?
[15:50] <donald> BluesKaj: I tried to record ISO from my hard drive to CD-R. It complained about not being able to write it in DAO mode and some other stupidities.  Do you think about the CD burner application?
[15:53] <donald> OK, thx, will try some few more things.

[16:00] <pvinis> how can i update it
[16:01] <htqp> pvinis: 14.04 has 3.13, why do you think it has 2.6
[16:01] <BluesKaj> pvinis, run uname -a to make sure it's 2.6

[16:06] <aphrode> I want to play galgame...

[16:18] <BluesKaj> EriC^^, that's a rhel server kernel, he posted it as pivinis earlier, think he's having a little fun with us trying fix an unfixable problem
[16:18] <Knight80> Eric^^ I mean anything
[16:18] <EriC^^> BluesKaj: oh ok

[16:33] <tzanolo> Hello. What is te extension for audio format at ubuntu? I need to put some audio herer in irc to notification, the folder is empty. So I will make a search at my system. Is it *.wav too?
[16:34] <irn4l> linux is an educative language it exist to people to study it
[16:34] <irn4l> ubuntu is trying to make money from a thing that is completly free, for pedagogy purposes and make money of it
[16:34] <irn4l> ubuntu is a cheme, people, is exactly the same thing as microsoft
[16:34] <BluesKaj> irn4l, get a life !
[16:35] <irn4l> besides its racist
[16:35] <irn4l> think of it? ubuntu?
[16:35] <htqp> racist? why??
[16:35] <kostkon> !ops | irn4l is a troll
[16:35] <lostatwork> so does Redhat go gripe at them lol
[16:35] <irn4l> what they are saying we have no capacity to learn that free language made for study ourselfs?
[16:36] <cfhowlett> do not feed the trolls, please
[16:36] <irn4l> so we people that have no money, dont know how to study
[16:36] <irn4l> ubuntu is a scheme
[16:36] <irn4l> its racist
[16:36] <irn4l> its from microsoft
[16:37] <BluesKaj> cfhowlett, it's entertaining to some degree
[16:37] <cfhowlett> BluesKaj, yeah, but it just feeds their ego and encourages more nonsense.
[16:37] <irn4l> why do you think some stuff work sometimes and then dont?
[16:38] <irn4l> dont you see? you are not the complete owner of your equipment cause of ubuntu
[16:38] <irn4l> ubuntu owns your equipment
[16:38] <irn4l> your computer, not you
[16:38] <irn4l> is a scheme people, exactly like microsoft
[16:39] <irn4l> people ubuntu is a scheme, its microsoft disguised as a linux based source
[16:40] <irn4l> ubuntu its the biggest lie ever told in the history of nix system
[16:40] <irn4l> linux is made for study purposes, not sellings
[16:40] <irn4l> linux is for people that so wish it to study it and teach
[16:40] <irn4l> not to sell
[16:42] <irn4l> ubuntu owners are jsut some world magnats that want to take advantage of everyliving thing in the world for their own profit
[16:43] <irn4l> ubuntu is a scheme people
[16:44] <lostatwork> so good to see this channel has ops that actually do something
[16:44] <irn4l> choose wisely your linux distro
[16:44] <irn4l> always remmeber linux is a educative language
[16:45] <irn4l> for studying purposes, and you will find your path
[16:45] <BluesKaj> lostatwork, busy doing other things and just let this guy spew his ridiculous BS
[16:45] <irn4l> ubuntu is a scheme people, dont use ubuntu, its racist
[16:45] <BluesKaj> almost seems like a bot
[16:46] <lostatwork> BluesKaj: not much point in being and op then, if they are useless
[16:47] <irn4l> ubuntu its the biggest lie in linux history people, they are exactly the opposite of linux ideology
[16:47] <BluesKaj> yeah, i don't get it the ops were called a couple of times, but no response, lostatwork
[16:47] <irn4l> that is to give for free the opportunity for everybody to improve
[16:47] <irn4l> they dont want you to improvem, they want you to stay there where you are in your ignorance so they can sell you what there is no need to be sold
[16:48] <irn4l> linus is, and always will be a free open source for educative purposes
[16:48] <irn4l> thats why some downloads come from an university near you
[16:48] <irn4l> cause is for pedagogy purposes, not sellings
[16:48] <EriC^^> *slow clap* </sarcasm>
[16:49] <irn4l> ubuntu is a scheme people
[16:49] <irn4l> its racist
[16:49] <rpp601> racist...

[16:49] <stijndg> oh wait this gets better :-)
[16:49] <dcwilliams_va> lol

[16:50] <fgro> hi. we have attached an android phone to ubuntu 14.04, it is automounte and appears in the file browser. but where exactly is it mounted? how to access the device from shell?
[16:50] <rpp601> fgro, check /media
[16:50] <lasers> fgro: Try Ctrl+L in your file manager.  They use a different protocol.
[16:52] <fgro> daekdroom: that's what i thought
[16:52] <iuza89> lsusb
[16:53] <stijndg> fgro when i go to that location and i navigate through the username folder my usb drive is mounted there
[16:54] <iuza89> fgro: are you  updated  ?
[16:54] <fgro> iuza89: yes
[16:54] <fgro> stijndg: but the folder /media/fgro is empty
[16:54] <daekdroom> My ~/ is damaged in a way that I'm unable to login to a graphical session through LightDM, because the greeter simply restarts. I'm able to login through vt, though. I'm pretty certain the problem is my user because I've reinstalled Ubuntu already and tried different sessions (Unity, KDE and MATE). Is there any logfile I can check to see what's wrong?
[16:54] <iuza89> fgro: uname  -r ?
[16:55] <fgro> iuza89: 3.13.0-46-generic
[16:56] <EriC^^> daekdroom: check ~/.Xauthority 's owner
[16:57] <daekdroom> EriC^^: root
[16:57] <EriC^^> chown it
[16:57] <iuza89> fgro: try this :  https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=145054
[16:58] <iuza89> fgro: try this :  at the end ...
[16:58] <daekdroom> EriC^^: How'd I do that? I'm in the LiveUSB right now. I could boot Ubuntu and do it through CLI, but I'm not entirely sure of how to use chown
[16:59] <EriC^^> sudo chown <user>: ~/.Xauthority
[17:01] <fgro> so i need adb to access my android phone from shell?
[17:01] <daekdroom> EriC^^: Ok. Thanks.
[17:04] <EriC^^> daekdroom: np
[17:06] <Daekdroom> EriC^^, it worked. Thank you.
[17:06] <EriC^^> Daekdroom: great, no problem
[17:08] <luis_> :)
[17:25] <souuell> i was wondering if someone could help me understand why apt-get upgrade would upgrade me from 12.04.3 to 12.04.5
[17:25] <souuell> i thought that apt-get upgrade ONLY upgraded packages, not the os itself
[17:25] <souuell> any explanation would be appreciated.
[17:28] <sebbie> Whoever replied to this I am sorry I missed your reply -  can you help again please? Can't find out how to configure a samba share from terminal, can anyone help me?
[17:30] <trism> souuell: 12.04.3 and 12.04.5 are both the same 12.04 version, the point releases are just for updated images for the lts versions
[17:31] <souuell> trism: how do i make it so it DOESNT move my minor release?
[17:31] <souuell> which packages do i need to exclude from apt-get upgrade
[17:31] <imbezol> souuell: you don't want to do that
[17:31] <souuell> i dont want 12.04.5 as its believed to have a major bonding bug
[17:31] <souuell> i do want to do that
[17:31] <souuell> bonding works well in 12.04.3 and sucks in 12.04.5
[17:31] <imbezol> it's all 12.04
[17:31] <souuell> i dont know why, but something changes
[17:31] <souuell> err changed.
[17:31] <imbezol> there are interdependencies though
[17:32] <souuell> so basically, its all or nothing
[17:32] <souuell> ?
[17:32] <imbezol> if you tell it to stay at 12.04.3 you won't get the security updates for the os and dependant packages won't be upgraded etc
[17:32] <imbezol> basically you'll have to just stop updating your system completely
[17:32] <imbezol> it's designed to stay within 12.04, not within any particular point release
[17:32] <souuell> yeah unfortunately i dont think my company cares as much as i do about security
[17:32] <meganerd> souuell: what do you mean by bonding?  Link aggregation?
[17:32] <souuell> they do want bonding to work though
[17:32] <souuell> yeah meganerd
[17:33] <imbezol> so really what you want is to update like normal, and have bonding work as expected
[17:33] <meganerd> souuell: have not heard of such a bug, it would be kernel related so no need to prevent updates, just use a different kernel
[17:33] <souuell> im calling bullshit on the fact it doesnt work, but they dont want me to take a chance.  they had some problems with bond's not working properly in 12.04.5 and they swear it is a change in the version
[17:34] <souuell> that sucks though, i was kinda hoping to AT LEAST upgrade the packages
[17:34] <souuell> for the reasons stated above
[17:34] <imbezol> the files that make it go to the next point release are just another package
[17:34] <souuell> saaaaaaaaad panda.
[17:34] <meganerd> souuell: you can just pin the kernel, the rest will work as expexted
[17:34] <imbezol> base-files package
[17:34] <meganerd> souuell: I seriously doubt that there is an issue there
[17:34] <souuell> base-files is the kerne;?
[17:35] <imbezol> it's likely something else caused it.. not what's in base-files
[17:35] <meganerd> souuell: is there some package that they are using, what is the use case here
[17:35] <imbezol> no, it's the files that show what point release you are
[17:35] <souuell> imbezol: i happen to agree with you....
[17:35] <reconmaster> anyone got a preference for hosting ubuntu? vmware player or virtual box?
[17:35] <souuell> however, my boss does not.
[17:35] <souuell> =/
[17:35] <meganerd> souuell: link aggregation is generally the wrong answer to a bandwidth problem
[17:35] <souuell> oh the upgrade
[17:35] <souuell> im talking about bonding.
[17:35] <meganerd> reconmaster: qemu+kvm
[17:35] <souuell> its not a bandwidth thing its a redundancy thing meganerd
[17:35] <reconmaster> I've been using vmware for years, but the new kernel on 14.10 broke vmware tools again..
[17:36] <meganerd> souuell: then fail over routes, OSPF, BGP, are probably what they want
[17:36] <reconmaster> maybe my fault for not just sticking with LTS...
[17:36] <souuell> meganerd: that doesnt make any sence.
[17:36] <souuell> err sense.
[17:36] <Gregor3000> hello - a simple quesitons - what is the tool for GPU stress test in 32bit linux. not 64bit but 32 bit. GPU test is 64 bit only.
[17:36] <souuell> if a nic dies i want a second one to handle traffic
[17:37] <imbezol> meganerd: bonding is a perfectly viable solution for host to switch redundancy
[17:37] <souuell> the routing protocol doesnt make that happen, unless you are setup to use something like anycast
[17:37] <meganerd> souuell: you want packets to flow if something in a network path dies, that is the exact problem the internet was designed for
[17:37] <reconmaster> meganerd: any particular reason for that route?
[17:38] <souuell> meganerd: no, i want hardware redundancy in my nics
[17:38] <souuell> that failover gracefully with a heartbeat
[17:38] <meganerd> souuell: if you want to protect against a NIC, use a bridge and assign the IP to it
[17:38] <imbezol> souuell: anyways.. i would recommend looking into the details of the actual problem and working to solve that
[17:38] <imbezol> souuell: in the meantime.. you can disable updates at the point where the system is know to work
[17:38] <souuell> imbezol: these servers have to be live in 4 days, so i guess im fucked
[17:38] <imbezol> souuell: perhaps put together a test machine to figure out the issue
[17:38] <souuell> im just gonna have to roll with unupdated 12.04.3
[17:38] <souuell> and have a couple test machines
[17:38] <meganerd> reconmaster: it is built into Ubuntu, Fedora, while both vmware and virtualbox build third party modules :)
[17:39] <souuell> and hope that i can prove these idiots wrong
[17:39] <souuell> so i can then run apt-get upgrade
[17:39] <souuell> ;)
[17:39] <meganerd> reconmaster: virtualbox is probably the easiest solution from an end user's perspective
[17:39] <meganerd> souuell: just pin the kernel so that it does not get updates
[17:39] <souuell> thank you for your help imbezol meganerd
[17:39] <souuell> i dont have enough time to test it unfortunately =(
[17:40] <meganerd> souuell: I really hope that this is not an internet accessible machine
[17:40] <souuell> i can setup a couple test machines, but the prod ones NEED to be production
[17:40] <souuell> meganerd: if you saw the shit my company has in production
[17:40] <souuell> LOLOLOL
[17:40] <souuell> fedora 7
[17:40] <reconmaster> meganerd: yeah it looks pretty similar to the vmware stuff i've been using, but i've had it with the proprietary nature of vmware
[17:40] <souuell> fedora 15
[17:40] <souuell> they dont give a shit ;)
[17:40] <souuell> which sucks
[17:40] <souuell> =(
[17:40] <meganerd> reconmaster: virtualbox is not a lot different
[17:40] <meganerd> souuell: well that does sukc
[17:41] <meganerd> souuell: on the bright side they probably don't own their hardware anymore
[17:41] <souuell> and it pains me greatly because im security minded
[17:41] <imbezol> great topics for #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:41] <souuell> so everytime i have to do something stupid, it pains me.
[17:41] <souuell> thanks for the help gentlemen
[17:41] <meganerd> souuell: NP
[17:42] <reconmaster> meganerd: cool, thanks for the feedback. i'm looking into your suggestion

[18:08] <BluesKaj> por=or

[18:13] <phre4k> I installed Ubuntu Server on an HP Gen8 microserver in legacy mode, because Ubuntu didn't boot otherwise. Can I enable AHCI for NCQ afterwise?
[18:13] <BluesKaj> never tried different partitions on a stick
[18:13] <mojtaba> solsTiCe: What should I do then? should I format the whole disk to fat32 and then make some partition on it, and then format those partitions to wathever I want?
[18:13] <phre4k> mojtaba: I don't think you know what partitions are. What are you trying to do?
[18:13] <solsTiCe> no. you create partition and then you format those partition with the filesystem you wish
[18:14] <boodllebat> i have a ubuntu server i want to do it like close SSH port for all IP except mine is this possible
[18:14] <phre4k> boodllebat: don't do it
[18:15] <Fuchs> boodllebat: yes, not advisable (allowed_hosts), but doable
[18:15] <mojtaba> phre4k: could you please tell me what partitions are?
[18:15] <BluesKaj> !partitions
[18:15] <mojtaba> phre4k: I have a usb stick and I want to use it in different OS.
[18:15] <boodllebat> Fuchs: then how should i protect my ssh
[18:15] <explodes> Hey! Is there a command to boot into headless mode 1 time?
[18:16] <mojtaba> BluesKaj: I have used Gparted before.
[18:16] <Fuchs> boodllebat: you can use /etc/hosts.allow  and /etc/hosts.deny,  but again, I wouldn't. Just limit it to key auth, have a password protected key, use a non-standard port to make kiddies bruteforce it less -> you're good
[18:16] <phre4k> boodllebat: rather set SSH to a port above 1024 and/or use portknockd
[18:16] <Fuchs> boodllebat: key only auth, don't allow root login, non-standard port and, if you want more, something that bans a host after n failed attempts
[18:16] <Fuchs> (fail2ban or similar)
[18:18] <boodllebat> Fuchs: i'm afraid if somebody gets physical access to my PC ! he'll access my server via key file
[18:18] <BluesKaj> mojtaba, you use partitions for various filesystems like ext,  ntfs or fat etc and usually filesystems contain an OS or OS data etc or an OS image
[18:18] <phre4k> boodllebat: don't use fail2ban, it could be used by malicious people to block your own IP. @Fuchs
[18:18] <Fuchs> boodllebat: have a password protected key.
[18:18] <phre4k> boodllebat: then secure it via password?
[18:18] <Fuchs> phre4k: that is highly unlikely, really
[18:19] <explodes> I just the need to computer to reboot so nvidia-uvm-XXX can install itself and override the running nvidia stuffs, I figured booting into headless mode would be the easiest way.
[18:19] <phre4k> Fuchs: well, I had it happen on blue team exercises once, I only repeat the handbook :D
[18:19] <Fuchs> phre4k: that would mean the attacker can successfully spoof your IP, which is, again, rather unlikely
[18:20] <Fuchs> anyway, I recommended it as an "if that isn't enough already", up to him whether he wants it or not. Imo key only auth with a password protected key and non-standard port is fully sufficient, thus I recommended it (a couple of times by now)
[18:20] <phre4k> ^fair enough
[18:20] <boodllebat> Fuchs: but it look unprofessional if somebody nmaps your server and your ssh port is open !
[18:21] <phre4k> boodllebat: yeah, right. You shouldn't put a server in the internet if you keep asking such questions :o
[18:21] <Fuchs> boodllebat: 1) no 2) you apparently didn't read what I wrote, at least 2 times by now
[18:22] <boodllebat> Fuchs: you said use non standerd port
[18:22] <Fuchs> with a bit less typos, but yes. So how do you jump to "but it look unprofessional if somebody nmaps your server and your ssh port is open !"  from that?
[18:22] <Fuchs> *fewer
[18:23] <boodllebat> Fuchs: i have seen in every professional service ! like google.com facebook.com and all they dont show that their ssh port is open or not !
[18:24] <phre4k> boodllebat: lol, just lol.
[18:24] <Fuchs> *sigh* okay, I'm out of this ticket, then.
[18:24] <phre4k> ^
[18:24] <Skullyripz> I'm thinking about customizing my Whisker Menu search bar in Xubuntu to include file searches as well. Does anyone know if this has already been done?
[18:24] <Orioa> can someone tell me how to change from graphical log in to text
[18:24] <boodllebat> Fuchs: what ! where am i wrong ?
[18:24] <boodllebat> phre4k: i'm new :P
[18:25] <Fuchs> Orioa: just for once or do you want to disable graphical login completely?
[18:25] <Fuchs> Orioa: for the former you can just CTRL+ALT+F1  (or F2, F3, F4 ...)
[18:25] <Orioa> disable completely
[18:25] <boodllebat> phre4k: can you help me out there !
[18:25] <Fuchs> for the latter you can, if you no longer use it, uninstall lightdm (or whatever *dm is in use), or at least disable the service
[18:25] <boodllebat> Fuchs: what happened ? where was i wrong ?
[18:26] <Orioa> if i uninstall it will i still have my desktop
[18:26] <Orioa> how can i disable the service
[18:26] <Fuchs> Orioa: yes, if you start it manually after logging in
[18:26] <phre4k> boodllebat: so you have a server and you want to secure SSH? We already gave you advice, scroll back and read.
[18:26] <Fuchs> Orioa: sudo update-rc.d -f <name-of-dm-you-use> remove
[18:26] <Fuchs> Orioa: maybe it would be better if you stated your actual use case, so we can give better, more suited to the case solutions
[18:27] <Orioa> ok what if i just want to disable
[18:27] <Orioa> just in case
[18:27] <Fuchs> Orioa: the command I just gave you
[18:27] <Orioa> thought that would remove it
[18:27] <Fuchs> just fill in the <name-of-dm-you-use>  by yourself, probably lightdm, but as I don't have my crystal ball at paw I can't say what you are using
[18:27] <boodllebat> phre4k: no the services like google.com facebook.com and all dont show their ssh ports ! where am i wrong here ?
[18:27] <Orioa> lightdm
[18:27] <Fuchs> no, that would disable it  (remove the service from autostart, basically)
[18:27] <phre4k> Orioa: no, it removes it from the init system. apt-get remove would remove it from your system.
[18:28] <paul_> y
[18:28] <antenne> irc://irc.oltreirc.net/NEXON
[18:29] <Orioa> ok i will returm gonna see if that worked or if i messed it up
[18:29] <phre4k> boodllebat: probably they use non-public IPs to communicate with their servers. A server can have multiple IPs and I bet my left ball that the google.com server is just a reverse proxy of some sort.
[18:31] <phre4k> boodllebat: and I also bet that they VPN into their data center network and then connect to the servers. And that they don't use IPv4 anymore for that.
[18:31] <phre4k> (but for that I won't bet my left ball)
[18:31] <boodllebat> phre4k: oh'k ! that is cool !
[18:32] <Orioa> guess it doesn't use light dm
[18:32] <t-cron> Hello, I have been using Ubuntu Gnome 14.04, and about once or twice a week, it crashes, it goes to a blank screen and nothing will work except to power off/on. Where can I find help on how to trouble-shoot this issue?
[18:32] <phre4k> boodllebat: don't plenk. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plenken
[18:33] <boodllebat> phre4k: sorry
[18:33] <Orioa> hmm
[18:33] <Orioa> how woul;d i find out what log in manager im using
[18:35] <yeats> t-cron: you might start by looking at the /var/log/Xorg.* logs
[18:35] <t-cron> yeats: ok thanks
[18:36] <boodllebat> phre4k: ok last time ! i will create key auth  , remove password auth and i'm all set to go !
[18:38] <boodllebat> phre4k: how will i do the sftp then ?
[18:39] <boodllebat> phre4k: can sftp also work from key auth ! ?
[18:39] <meganerd> boodllebat: yes
[18:40] <meganerd> boodllebat: same with scp
[18:42] <t-cron> yeats: mostly just initialization of devices and a switch to mode 1366x768, which appears normal. If it was X-server, I would think consoles on <alt><fn> would work in the event, but when I say nothing works, I mean nothing. Like it dies on me and pc fan just starts spinning real fast.
[18:44] <boodllebat> meganerd: what do you use when you want to transfer large files from local system to remote server ?
[18:45] <meganerd> boodllebat: netcat :P
[18:46] <boodllebat> meganerd: o.O can we use that ? how do you do it ?
[18:46] <meganerd> boodllebat: usually rsync over ssh, sftp if the remote host is configured not to have a shell access
[18:46] <meganerd> boodllebat: I only use netscat on my lan when I want the fastest possible throughput
[18:47] <bekks> boodllebat: I'd use ssh. netcat isnt encrypted.
[18:48] <boodllebat> meganerd: do you send files one by one ! or you make a tar and send single file and decompress it on remote server cause it'll be very difficult to do one by one file from terminal !
[18:48] <boodllebat> bekks: did you mean SFTP ! ?
[18:49] <bekks> boodllebat: No. I mean ssh :)
[18:49] <meganerd> boodllebat: tar + bzip or sometimes 7zip
[18:49] <bekks> boodllebat: scp :)
[18:49] <boodllebat> bekks: do you send single tar or multiple files one by one ?
[18:49] <meganerd> boodllebat: rsync can take directories in a single command
[18:50] <bekks> boodllebat: I dont care about that at all, since I just use rsync over ssh or scp.
[18:50] <littlebit_> hi people, I have recently updated my xubuntu, among the updates there where updates for thunderbird and firefox. When I click on a link in one of my emails, firefox opens and redirects me to my locally running apache. how come??
[18:51] <meganerd> littlebit_: do you have a proxy entry configured in Firefox?
[18:51] <rgb-one> anyone reccommend a schematic editor for a beginner to circuit design?
[18:51] <BenBE> I have a problem with an Ubuntu installation: After successful install the system rebootet and brings up "No bootable device found". EFI+Secure boot used while install. Default booting the system boots Windows without asking. When setting BootNext to the Ubuntu entry the mentioned message appearrs.
[18:52] <BenBE> Boot-Repair didn't help. Installation is Lubuntu 14.04.2 LTS via UNetBootIn 608 from USB-Stick.
[18:52] <littlebit_> magenerd:  I have checked that and there is nothing of that kind
[18:53] <boodllebat> bekks: rsync looks so cooool!
[18:53] <meganerd> boodllebat: in looking at the history, there are a couple of things you can do to protect ssh
[18:54] <boodllebat> meganerd: :) how ?
[18:54] <meganerd> boodllebat: I like fail2ban, it will automatically add firewall rules for a certain number of failed auth atempts
[18:54] <bekks> boodllebat: change the ssh port, use fail2ban, use keybased auth instead of password based auth.
[18:55] <meganerd> boodllebat: use keys,
[18:55] <bekks> boodllebat: That should suffice to secure ssh.
[18:55] <meganerd> boodllebat: have monitoring in place (logcheck, or something more complicated
[18:55] <yeats> boodllebat: meganerd: and set up SSH keys between hosts
[18:55] <boodllebat> meganerd: i dont wanna use ssh keys as i am not sure if my physical system is safe ! and i usually login from multiple systems , is there is way like to use password auth and protect my system ?
[18:55] <yeats> oh, bekks said that ;-)
[18:56] <yeats> boodllebat: you can set up passphrases with keys too
[18:56] <meganerd> boodllebat: I would also look at restricting the users that you want to have sftp only access (change their shell to /usr/bin/scponly)
[18:56] <boodllebat> meganerd: how to use passphrares inside keys ?
[18:56] <meganerd> boodllebat: if your local system is not safe, then ultimately there is nothing that you can do
[18:56] <meganerd> boodllebat: you need at somepoint a trustworthy machine
[18:57] <boodllebat> meganerd: my friends can steal my system !
[18:57] <meganerd> boodllebat: ssh-genkey will prompt you
[18:57] <yeats> boodllebat: 'ssh-keygen' will ask for a passphrase by defualt (blank passphrase means no passphrase)
[18:57] <boodllebat> yeats: can anybody crack that passphrase by looking at my key file !
[18:58] <yeats> boodllebat: no
[18:58] <bekks> boodllebat: you can protect keys by a passphrase. You specify that when creating the key.
[18:58] <meganerd> boodllebat: yup
[18:58] <t-cron> yeah, passphrase and key, best of both worlds
[18:58] <meganerd> boodllebat: offline attacks are fast
[18:58] <arvenius> i have a new lenovo machine
[18:58] <arvenius> i trust superfish is protecting me
[18:58] <yeats> boodllebat: well, yeah, but if they've gotten that far in, you have bigger problems
[18:58] <bekks> boodllebat: you need to hide your secret key, but you give your public key away, literally.
[18:58] <boodllebat> meganerd: offline attacks are fast ? what do you mean by that ?
[18:59] <yeats> arvenius: did you get the wireless working?
[18:59] <arvenius> no i quit in frustration and installed win8
[18:59] <t-cron> It would depend on the encryption alg, wouldnt it? If it is modern, then it should take a long time to crack.
[18:59] <yeats> arvenius: ah - bummer :-/
[18:59] <arvenius> i figured ill try again with 15.4. or something
[19:00] <yeats> arvenius: watch that bug report - it's possible it will be in the kernel by default soon
[19:00] <arvenius> will do
[19:00] <arvenius> but this fresh win8 install is already more bearable than the one tht came on the device
[19:00] <arvenius> less lenovo crap
[19:01] <boodllebat> bekks: is rsync like git ?
[19:01] <t-cron> not really. Git uses hashes and pointers to files for the porpuse of version control, afaik.
[19:01] <polux9> am looking to find out whether IDJC is supported on ubuntu 12.04
[19:02] <t-cron> rsync just gets files.
[19:02] <boodllebat> t-cron: oh! but looks quite close to git
[19:02] <steffen> hello. i have hooked up my midi keyboard and set it up with qynth. but im not getting any sound when im pressing a key. can anyone help?
[19:02] <yeats> @find idjc
[19:03] <yeats> !find idjc
[19:03] <yeats> polux9: yep^^
[19:03] <sorito> i have a problem, somehow i cannot use apt-get anymore, maybe you can help?
[19:03] <sorito> E: Method gzip has died unexpectedly!
[19:03] <sorito> E: Sub-process gzip received signal 4
[19:03] <polux9> thanks yeats
[19:04] <polux9> can recomennd a channel?
[19:04] <polux9> about IDJC?
[19:04] <yeats> sorito: can you pastebin the output of 'sudo apt-get update'?
[19:04] <sorito> sure
[19:04] <sorito> it fails at bzip2
[19:05] <yeats> polux9: http://idjc.sourceforge.net/contact.html - don't know about a channel though
[19:05] <meganerd> boodllebat: offline attacks are where someone can get direct access to your key and then run a local attack.  The cipher strengh, password length and complexity are what become important
[19:05] <polux9> oh ok either way thanks you've been very helpfull thanks yeats
[19:05] <boodllebat> meganerd: world is bad palce
[19:06] <boodllebat> meganerd: place !
[19:06] <steffen> anyone know why qsynth wont play sound when i press a key?
[19:06] <boodllebat> meganerd: i must protect my system !
[19:06] <meganerd> boodllebat: it is neither good nor bad, it simply is :)
[19:06] <bcowan> what kernel is in 15.04
[19:06] <iuza89> sorito: your sources.list  is ok ?
[19:07] <OerHeks> bcowan, ask in #ubuntu+1, untill release
[19:07] <sorito> pastebin of error and syslog is here:
[19:07] <sorito> http://pastebin.com/duUXj6dn
[19:07] <meganerd> steffen: probably routing, either midi input is not routed to synth input, or audio output is not routed to your sound card (or both)
[19:07] <meganerd> steffen: are you using jack?
[19:08] <meganerd> steffen: you probably want to take this to a music specific channel, I am not at my DAW right now
[19:08] <steffen> im using aconnect and qsynth when i hit a key qsynth lights up but there is no sound
[19:09] <steffen> im sure its a simple thing i am missing
[19:09] <meganerd> steffen: don't think I have used aconnect, I always use qjackctl to connect midi to synths
[19:10] <sorito> seems like my zlib is broken, but i don't know how to fix
[19:10] <steffen> well the midi connection is there, qsynth just doesent give any sound
[19:10] <bazhang> !info linux-image-generic vivid | bcowan
[19:10] <sorito> best try so far was to use apt-cdrom from locally mounted iso to reinstall zlib1g
[19:11] <bcowan> bazhang: thanks
[19:11] <bazhang> bcowan, 15.04 discussion is in #ubuntu+1
[19:12] <sorito> where can i get the zlib1g.deb for a local --reinstall?
[19:12] <meganerd> sorito: /var/cache/apt/
[19:13] <meganerd> sorito: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[19:14] <bazhang> packages.ubuntu.com as well sorito
[19:14] <sorito> ha, found the .deb at /media/foo/pool/main/z/zlib/zlib1g_1.2.8.dfsg-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb -> how can i unpack it?
[19:14] <sorito> with dpkg -i -> i get tar: This does not look like a tar archive
[19:14] <meganerd> sorito: dpkg -i media/foo/pool/main/z/zlib/zlib1g_1.2.8.dfsg-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
[19:14] <bekks> sorito: Because it isnt a tar archive.
[19:14] <meganerd> sorito: dpkg -i /media/foo/pool/main/z/zlib/zlib1g_1.2.8.dfsg-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
[19:15] <bekks> sorito: whats the actual goal?
[19:15] <sorito> i want to reinstall zlib1g, since everything related to compression (apt-get, even man) crashes
[19:15] <meganerd> sorito: use dpkg to install .deb files (they are compressed, but you really don't want to install them manually)
[19:16] <steffen> well this is wierd. i rfestarted computer did the same as before and now it works
[19:16] <boodllebat> meganerd: i just nmaped my friends'server on aws and i'm unable to see his ssh port althought he is still accessing it how does he do it ?
[19:16] <steffen> so i have another wierd problem wuith dual monitors
[19:16] <eukreign> is there a way to ssh into an ubuntu desktop and trigger a login into unity and open a browser window?
[19:16] <sorito> boodllebat: maybe he has port knocking?
[19:16] <phunyguy> eukreign: ssh -X
[19:16] <meganerd> boodllebat: either with iptables, single packet auth, or services.allow
[19:16] <phunyguy> (iirc)
[19:17] <phunyguy> then you can launch graphical applications
[19:17] <meganerd> boodllebat: he could also be using a different pot
[19:17] <meganerd> boodllebat: erm port
[19:17] <boodllebat> meganerd: how can i do that ?
[19:17] <meganerd> boodllebat: which part
[19:17] <eukreign> phunyguy: that opens it locally, i want it to open on the desktop i'm SSH'ed into
[19:17] <boodllebat> meganerd: which one is easier ?
[19:18] <meganerd> boodllebat: it depends
[19:18] <phunyguy> eukreign: oh, in that case, ssh in, the export DISPLAY=:0, and launch the app.
[19:18] <boodllebat> meganerd: and what you recommaned ?
[19:18] <phunyguy> then*
[19:18] <meganerd> boodllebat: if you are on a dynamic IP, I don't recommend it
[19:18] <boodllebat> meganerd: i'm on a dynamic IP
[19:19] <meganerd> boodllebat: I use my laptop a lot, and since I don't know what my IPs are going to be I just fail2ban, limited number of usernames (that are not common), and ssh keys
[19:19] <meganerd> boodllebat: then single packet auth is what makes sense, though it is not trivial to set up
[19:19] <eukreign> phunyguy: i get error message: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key     ** (eog:2382): WARNING **: Could not open X display
[19:20] <phunyguy> eukreign: are you logged in on the remote desktop?
[19:20] <boodllebat> meganerd: i guess i'm ok with KEY and passphrase thing !
[19:20] <phunyguy> if not, this is probably not possible
[19:20] <meganerd> boodllebat: option 2 is to get a sixxs ipv6 tunnel, then only allow IPv6 connections
[19:20] <eukreign> ssh or do you mean is unity logged in as me?
[19:20] <phunyguy> eukreign: I mean is unity logged in as you
[19:20] <eukreign> no, it's not, that's part of what i'm trying to figure out how to do
[19:21] <steffen> oh my god. why is ubuntu like this
[19:21] <boodllebat> meganerd: i dont have ipv6
[19:21] <phunyguy> eukreign: I am afraid I don't think there is way to do that from ssh.
[19:21] <meganerd> boodllebat: AWS does, and you can get a tunnel from sixxs.net
[19:21] <eukreign> basically, this is what i want as end result: i turn on the desktop and then from another computer trigger a browser to open to a particular page
[19:21] <steffen> i just want to use it for simple things. i set up qsynth with my midi keyboard, now there is no sound in firefox on youtube etc. wth is going on
[19:21] <phunyguy> eukreign: you can have it autologin, but that is the extent of it.
[19:22] <eukreign> if i autologin, that should get me most of the way there, right?
[19:22] <steffen> can i restart sound or something from termnial?
[19:22] <phunyguy> eukreign: yep.
[19:22] <meganerd> steffen: what did you do?
[19:22] <meganerd> steffen: going afk for 10 minutes, I will check in with you when I get back
[19:22] <steffen> okay its ok
[19:22] <steffen> im giving up
[19:22] <steffen> and going back to windows
[19:23] <steffen> thanks tho
[19:23] <bekks> steffen: Good luck.
[19:24] <boodllebat> meganerd: do i need a astatic ip for port knocking ?
[19:24] <Code_Bleu> i have a toshiba satellite l875d-s7230, and im having trouble installing mint 17.1.  I know this is Ubuntu channel, but thought since mint is based off Ubuntu, i might get some help here
[19:25] <bekks> !mint | Code_Bleu
[19:25] <Code_Bleu> i can select to run the installer, but when it launches the gui, it just shows a bunch of garbage
[19:25] <OerHeks>  mint has its own issues
[19:25] <boodllebat> bekks: do i need a statci ip for port knocking ?
[19:26] <bekks> boodllebat: No. But using a dynamic IP will make things harder.
[19:26] <Code_Bleu> ok, thanks
[19:31] <Orioa>  this is so aggrovationg..i tried removing gdm..lightdm to get a non graphical log in nothing worked in using xubuntu
[19:32] <rgb-one> anyone have a reccommended alternative to electronics workbench?
[19:35] <rgb-one> Nothing to get aggrovated about.
[19:35] <jhutchins> Orioa: Which release?
[19:35] <rgb-one> how did you remove lightdm?
[19:35] <Orioa> the 14.04 i do believe its latest release
[19:35] <rgb-one> which apt command did you use?
[19:36] <Orioa> apt-get remove
[19:36] <Orioa> with sudo
[19:36] <bekks> Thats not the full command.
[19:36] <Orioa> ahh
[19:37] <Orioa> how was i supposed to do it
[19:38] <bekks> Orioa: Disable lightdm instead of removing it.

[19:40] <wouh> what means that : Please enable a repository containing the [linux-generic] packages in the software sources of Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS (sdb1). Then try again.
[19:43] <ubuntuluser> If I have a desktop with integrated Intel graphics and I put an Nvidia graphics card in it and plug the monitor cable into the gfx card instead of the port on the motherboard, will Ubuntu seamlessly switch to using the Nvidia card instead of the integrated graphics?
[19:44] <rgb-one> run apt-get purge lightdm instead or apt-get remove --purge lightdm
[19:44] <rgb-one> from my understanding that removes all remnants of the package
[19:46] <Orioa> that link doesn't apply to me
[19:46] <Knight80> Hello everyone
[19:47] <Knight80> How can I access a windows shared folder from Ubuntu's Terminal?
[19:47] <Orioa> why is it such a pain to disable the log in manager
[19:47] <Knight80> I can't see it mounted anywhere :(
[19:47] <Orioa> would proly be mounted under media
[19:47] <Orioa> if u installed ntfs configuration
[19:48] <Orioa> if u didn't might wanna look into it
[19:49] <Orioa> mine is /media/wen/name of drive

[20:20] <Knight80> Is it possible to watch videos stored in a remote windows machine with mythtv?
[20:20] <andreas> hi
[20:23] <VolUTFan> hey, anyone around
[20:23] <bekks> VolUTFan: According to "/names", "yes".
[20:23] <maum_> hello
[20:23] <VolUTFan> lol, that doesn't mean anyone is sitting at the computer or even paying attention lol
[20:23] <VolUTFan> hey maum
[20:23] <maum_> how to add multiple users?
[20:24] <maum_> I need to add 32 users
[20:24] <maum_> with home directory
[20:24] <bekks> maum_: Script it.
[20:24] <VolUTFan> sounds like your heading up a project for a lab
[20:24] <maum_> script it?
[20:24] <maum_> how?
[20:25] <bekks> maum_: for user in user1 user2 user3; do adduser -d /home/$user -m; done
[20:25] <VolUTFan> couldn't he add the usernames to a text file, then call the text file from the adduser
[20:25] <bekks> maum_: for user in user1 user2 user3; do adduser -d /home/$user -m $user; done
[20:25] <maum_> is that c program?
[20:25] <VolUTFan> no maum
[20:25] <meganerd> maum_: text file with usernames, then "for each in text.file ; do sudo adduser $each --home /path/to/home/$each ; done"
[20:25] <VolUTFan> he is talking about right from the terminal
[20:26] <SchrodingersScat> for user in user{1..33} ; do echo $user ; done
[20:26] <maum_> is that terminal command?
[20:26] <bekks> maum_: Yes.
[20:26] <meganerd> maum_: mine and bekks
[20:26] <VolUTFan> try adding the usernames, 1 per line to a text file, then do somethign like for user in /home/user/file; do.......
[20:26] <maum_> the user is bs01~bs32 and password is qortjreo1 ~ qortjreo32
[20:26] <SchrodingersScat> meganerd: that works for you?
[20:27] <bekks> maum_: choose other passwords now...
[20:27] <maum_> sh script?
[20:27] <SchrodingersScat> !bash
[20:27] <SchrodingersScat> meganerd: odd, because when I put a path to a file that way, it does not list the contents.
[20:28] <whac-a-retro> Finder > Applications > Utilities > Terminal.app
[20:28] <meganerd> SchrodingersScat: what do you mean?
[20:28] <SchrodingersScat> meganerd | maum_: text file with usernames, then "for each in text.file ; do sudo adduser $each --home /path/to/home/$each ; done"
[20:28] <SchrodingersScat> meganerd: not on my machine
[20:29] <maum_> I still don't know wherther I have to run the command in terminal or make sh script for 'for' command.
[20:29] <SchrodingersScat> maum_: should be equivalent
[20:30] <maum_> how can I set password?
[20:30] <maum_> the user is bs01~bs32 and password is qortjreo1 ~ qortjreo32
[20:30] <maum_> that I have to add.
[20:30] <VolUTFan> if I am not mistaken, when you create a useraccount, it doesn't automatically set a password.  it would be no password associated with the accounts
[20:31] <VolUTFan> good question maum
[20:31] <tb303> Hi all. I have a question about the Linux version of Opera. I love it but I have one problem. I am bilingual and Chinese characters display in a really bad font. I don't know how to change it.
[20:31] <meganerd> well I think I do "for each in `cat list.txt` ..."
[20:32] <meganerd> SchrodingersScat: and yes it does create the directories for me
[20:32] <SchrodingersScat> maum_: I don't see the option in adduser, but I see a password option in useradd, i would just be careful about differences between the two before proceeding
[20:33] <CodingFree> Hi guys, I'm using a desktop and I haven't the dual boot option; I guess that I have fast boot enabled, so it is not shown even the POST screen. Is there any way to disable the fast boot, so I could boot Ubuntu using a live cd?
[20:34] <SchrodingersScat> meganerd: my problem was mostly in the 'for each in text.file' since that seems to be invalid for the purpose.  glad you cleared that up
[20:35] <meganerd> SchrodingersScat: the vast majority of time I am iterating through an array that I define from some other file (like a csv)
[20:36] <etronik> CodingFree, try pressing some of the function keys right after power up, like F2 or F8 or something like that
[20:36] <tmch> Hi! Is it safe to allow telnet access to everyone and then run a public server program in ~/.profile?
[20:36] <SchrodingersScat> for i in {01..32} ; do echo "bs${i}" ; echo "qortjreo${i}" ; done # don't really need a list, bash builtin can change the number for the username and password so they match.
[20:39] <maum> SchrodingersScat: can I run it on terminal?
[20:40] <SchrodingersScat> maum: mine was just showing how you can use {01..32} in bash to iterate your variables, but yeah, go ahead and run that line, it should just spit out 62 lines
[20:40] <meganerd> SchrodingersScat: I have traditionally used "declare -a  somevar=(a,b,c,)", I use a very modular (and verbose is the amount of code way) approach.
[20:43] <meganerd> SchrodingersScat: to protect against my mistakes and those of others, I would probably check each item in that list to make sure that there is not crap in the input file :)
[20:45] <CodingFree> not luck etronik
[20:46] <etronik> CodingFree, I don't have any more tips, but for sure there is a way... tried googling already ?
[20:47] <CodingFree> yes etronik, I tried even looking to do it using Windows/cmd, but nothing yet
[20:47] <CodingFree> restarting the CMOS doesn't seem to work, it seems enabled by default
[20:47] <VolUTFan> rsync..  on terminal I need to add sudo to run it.  If I throw it in a crontab line, so I am doing backups daily, do I need to use sudo?
[20:47] <VolUTFan> sudo rsync -achivv --delete-during --force --progress /home/mustang /media/mustang/Mirror_Repo/
[20:48] <VolUTFan> or can I omit sudo
[20:50] <Guest77067> i have a problem with tor  please help me
[20:50] <Guest77067> Bootstrapped 10%: Finishing handshake with directory server
[20:52] <AlexPortable> How can I configure HDMI-CEC?
[20:52] <AlexPortable> cec-client -l gives me: Found devices: NONE
[20:53] <rashivar> VolUTFan : Do not do sudo in cron, instead add your job to root's cron
[20:54] <VolUTFan> rashivar...  question about that.  What is the difference between doing $sudo crontab -e and $crontab -e other than the earlier is the roots crontab and the later is the users crontab
[20:54] <VolUTFan> I thought both crontabs run under root
[20:55] <dsnyders> Hi All!  I'm looking for alternatives to Webmin. Is OpenPanel any good?
[20:55] <bekks> Depends on what you want to do.
[20:55] <rashivar> no. When you run crontab -e , it shows you user's crontab when run with sudo , it shows root's crontab
[20:55] <VolUTFan> In that case, I should do a sudo crontab -e and edit only the roots crontab table.  Maybe I should move all of my crontab entries to root?
[20:55] <bekks> dsnyders: http://alternativeto.net/software/webmin/
[20:56] <rashivar> yup. sudo crontab -e and add things there
[20:57] <VolUTFan> Ok, my misunderstanding on the crontab table.  I sure don't know everything.  I only have a few entries in my user crontab so copy and paste should easily work.  Much appreciated rashivar
[20:59] <maum_> I used the script http://pastebin.com/zr96ZM1W but password is not working.
[20:59] <maum_> the users are added.
[21:00] <dsnyders> bekks: Thank's for the link.  I've been googling in the background.  I was fishing for some opinions from the chat crowd.
[21:00] <maum_> in users_data file, I input bs02 qortjreo2 like this.
[21:02] <tnkhanh> Hi can "make install" packages managed by package manager
[21:02] <tnkhanh> be managed*
[21:03] <AlexPortable> anyone?
[21:06] <jhutchins> tnkhanh: You can build an actual package that can be managed.  That's easy if you're using ubuntu sources.
[21:06] <winterchillz> AlexPortable: what was your question?
[21:06] <jhutchins> tnkhanh: Those should have "make dpkg" targets.
[21:06] <SchrodingersScat> maum_: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/001
[21:07] <tnkhanh> jhutchins: interesting. Thanks!
[21:08] <maum_> I used the script http://pastebin.com/zr96ZM1W but password is not working.
[21:08] <maum_> SchrodingersScat: I used the script http://pastebin.com/zr96ZM1W but password is not working.
[21:12] <coxs> hi
[21:12] <SchrodingersScat> maum_: that's a little odd, try adding some tests, like echoing the variables so you see what they are, also quote all expansions, like "${password}".  #bash is also a channel you can use as a resource.
[21:12] <netcrash> Hello, I ran os-prober on my computer but it didn't detect any windows partition (I'm using uefi). Any sugestions?
[21:13] <maum> SchrodingersScat: echo ${password} is correct
[21:13] <twiler> Hello, everyone, I need help installing a scrypt miner on my system; I have downloaded it, and I thought I had downloaded all of the package dependancies, but, every time I
[21:13] <maum> I am here
[21:14] <coxs> complete your sentence please
[21:15] <yeats> tnkhanh: there is (or at least used to be) a program that would add a manually-installed package to APT's database for tracking purposes, but I'm blanking on the name and my google-fu is failing
[21:17] <twiler> Hey guys, what's the website I can paste example code to?
[21:17] <tnkhanh> yeats: thanks. Good to know :D
[21:17] <SchrodingersScat> !pastebin
[21:17] <twiler> As in, the URL
[21:17] <twiler> THanks SchrocdingersCat!
[21:18] <tos-1> twiler, tnkhanh: checkinstall
[21:18] <yeats> tnkhanh: tos-1 beat me to it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall
[21:18] <tos-1> Sry.
[21:18] <tos-1> I meant yeats. :)
[21:18] <yeats> tos-1: thanks ;-)
[21:19] <tnkhanh> tos-1: wow thanks. excellent :D
[21:19] <twiler> Hello, everyone, I need help installing a scrypt miner on my system; I have downloaded it, and I thought I had downloaded all of the package dependencies, but, every time I "CD" into the directory, and I type ./ScryptMiner, I get the following result:
[21:19] <twiler>  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10475091/
[21:20] <yeats> tnkhanh: however, it's almost always better to stick to the repos (unless you absolutely have to have a specific version of something or it's not available in the repos)
[21:20] <twiler> Soo what gives?
[21:20] <ade> #ubuntu
[21:20] <SchrodingersScat> maum: so that might mean that you have to run the password through crypt first, but don't ask me, I've never done that before.
[21:20] <tnkhanh> yeats: yeah I think so, too
[21:20] <yeats> twiler: proabably a 32 vs. 64 bit issue
[21:21] <tnkhanh> twiler: you're missing the file libQtGui.so.4
[21:21] <tnkhanh> it's in some package
[21:21] <twiler> Really, yeats?  I was very careful to download the 64 bit  version tho
[21:21] <twiler> tnkhanh: ok, how do I go about getting that file?
[21:22] <twiler> tnkhanh, Is there a sudo command that you know of?
[21:22] <AlexPortable> winterchillz: I cant get hdmi-cec to work
[21:22] <yeats> twiler: sudo apt-get install packagename:i386
[21:22] <lasko> maybe inside the libqtgui4 package?
[21:23] <winterchillz> AlexPortable: Ah, I see, sorry missed it. Not using hdmi personally but I'm sure someone of the fellas here will be able to help you
[21:24] <tnkhanh> twiler: sudo apt-get install libqtgui4
[21:24] <twiler> yeats, I get this error: E: Unable to locate package packagename
[21:24] <twiler> OK, tnkhanh!
[21:25] <twiler> ok, tnkhanh, I don't think that was the issue; It spit this out:
[21:25] <twiler> libqtgui4 is already the newest version.
[21:25] <twiler> The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
[21:25] <twiler>   linux-headers-3.13.0-32 linux-headers-3.13.0-32-generic
[21:25] <twiler>   linux-image-3.13.0-32-generic linux-image-extra-3.13.0-32-generic
[21:25] <twiler> Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
[21:26] <k1l> !paste | twiler i thought you knew that already
[21:26] <AlexPortable> Anyone else can help me out to get hdmi-cec to work?
[21:28] <twiler> LOL, I gotta jet now, but, if anyone here figures out my issue and would be kind enough to email me, my email address is: gandalf.cane@gmail.com!! THANKS BUNCHES!
[21:28] <tnkhanh> twiler: try sudo maybe
[21:29] <tnkhanh> twiler: sudo ./ScryptMiner
[21:31] <rosco_y> How do I boot 14.10 to runlevel 3?
[21:32] <lasko> rosco_y: During the boot loader press E to edit the boot line and then add 3  at the end of the kernel line. Then hit B
[21:32] <lasko> That'll boot you into non-graphical
[21:32] <lasko> Assuming you are using Grub.
[21:33] <rosco_y> lasko, Thank You!  I'm not seeing any grub menu when I boot (fresh install), do I need the grub menu for that?
[21:33] <BlauskaerM> Hello folks, can you help me with a package question?
[21:33] <winterchillz> BlauskaerM: shoot, mate
[21:33] <lasko> rosco_y: When you boot do you see any menu appear?
[21:33] <rosco_y> Just my login ID and the "Guest Login" option
[21:34] <BlauskaerM> I have a ubuntu server an want to run a vnc server with xfce. Which package do I need to install?
[21:34] <lasko> rosco_y: Are you wanting it to happen always on boot or jsut "right now"
[21:34] <Ben64> rosco_y: pretty sure runlevels besides 0, 1, and 6 are all the same
[21:34] <BlauskaerM> Basically, what are the basic packages needed?
[21:35] <rosco_y> Right now my graphics are scrambled, I think I can get by with the shell interface
[21:35] <lasko> rosco_y: you could just go into a terminal and just type   init 3
[21:35] <Ben64> !text | rosco_y
[21:36] <ggate> @blauskaerm .. https://securedragon.net/clients/knowledgebase/40/HOW-TO-Setup-a-very-basic-Debian-VNC-server-XFCE4-Desktop.html
[21:36] <rosco_y> as it stands now, my monitor is just a bunch of squiggley lines, so it's hard to do anything at all
[21:36] <Ben64> rosco_y: so do the text thing i just had the bot tell you
[21:36] <lasko> rosco_y: try ctrl+alt+backspace
[21:36] <lasko> or reboot and do what Ben64 said
[21:36] <BlauskaerM> rosco_y: Bad drivers or old graphic card?
[21:36] <Ben64> lasko: ctrl+alt+backspace doesn't work by default on ubuntu
[21:37] <BlauskaerM> lasko: Needs to be enabled
[21:37] <lasko> Ben64: Ah thats right.
[21:37] <lasko> My bad.
[21:37] <winterchillz> rosco_y: you can also use Ctrl+Alt+F1 during the ubuntu splash screen
[21:37] <rosco_y> BlauskaerM, it's an old HP, fresh install, so I really don't know where the problem is
[21:37] <abountu> hi, I just installed Ubuntu 14.10 on my new 4k resolution laptop, everything looks very tiny. how can I increase the sizes of icons and texts and windows to appear normal so I can make use of my high resolution?
[21:38] <AlexPortable> Anyone?
[21:39] <AlexPortable> I've been working on this for quite some time but I just can't get it to work..
[21:39] <BlauskaerM> rosco_y: Could to take a screenshot? If the image is bad quality then it might be the drivers. Otherwise it might indicate that you have some hardware problem?
[21:39] <winterchillz> abountu: The first thing from the top of my head is the unity-tweak-tool that has options to change font size etc. You can also take a look at Appearance (search it in the launchpad)
[21:39] <rosco_y> Thanks lasko, Ben64, BlauskaerM, Winterchillz et. al.  I'll try the shift during boot once.
[21:39] <BlauskaerM> Dont know if that is a correct assumption :P
[21:40] <rosco_y> then when I'm in grub, then add a 3 to the end of the boot command, and press 'B'
[21:40] <Ben64> no 3!
[21:40] <Ben64> !text | rosco_y
[21:40] <phre4k> wanted to install Xubuntu, error "initramfs unable to find medium containing live file system"
 rosco_y: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode
[21:40] <rosco_y> Ben64, thanks, 3 -> then 'B' ?
[21:40] <Ben64> NO 3
[21:41] <rosco_y> 3 then 'Enter'?
[21:41] <Ben64> DONT DO 3
[21:41] <Ben64> jesus
[21:41] <winterchillz> rosco_y: See what ubottu wrote earlier and what Ben64 just quoted
[21:41] <rosco_y> :( sorry...
[21:41] <winterchillz> rosco_y: See this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode
[21:42] <solsTiCe> hi. I have problem with oibaf intel driver. I had to run unity --replace. Now I don't have any more the top menu bar with aplet. How do I bring it back ?
[21:42] <rosco_y> Ben64, I'm at the web page now.  Sorry for being so thick--Thanks a lot!
[21:43] <winterchillz> solsTiCe: Not sure if I understand completely but writing 'sudo lightdm (re)start' in terminal should restart the Ubuntu desktop
[21:44] <solsTiCe> winterchillz: no I don't want to restart X. I have lost the global menu and the applet in it. I want it back
[21:44] <BlauskaerM> Sorry, once again. What are the minimum package requirement for installing xfce or where can I read about it?
[21:44] <bekks> solsTiCe: for getting it back, you need to restart X.
[21:45] <winterchillz> ah, misunderstanding then, sorry. Not sure I can help with any advices except for don't install/remove packages randomly - I always end up messing up my desktop
[21:45] <winterchillz> BlauskaerM: apt-get should tell you if you need any additional packages usually and it will auto-install them for you
[21:47] <BlauskaerM> winterchillz: Had some problems last time I tried with ubuntu server.
[21:47] <solsTiCe> bekks: can't i simply restart the msising process ?
[21:47] <Loshki> BlauskaerM: more importantly, it will list any missing dependencies and ask you before installing them. Why do you need a 'minimum package'? Are you short of disk space?
[21:48] <BlauskaerM> Loshki: No just want to minimize the program footprint. Just reinstalled the server :P
[21:49] <BlauskaerM> But if there are no other known speciall procedure, I will go with apt-get xfce
[21:50] <jojo_> hi!! can you hel me!!
[21:50] <BlauskaerM> jojo_: What is the problem?
[21:50] <winterchillz> jojo_: Hi! Hope so!
[21:50] <jojo_> I restart my machine e when he load a gnome desktop don't rus
[21:50] <jojo_> run
[21:51] <bekks> solsTiCe: Thats done by restarting X.
[21:51] <jojo_> i have a black windows with a indicator of the mouse
[21:51] <BlauskaerM> jojo_: You have any error message?
[21:51] <Loshki> BlauskaerM: afaik, there is no other known special procedure. Nor is there a version designed specifically to minimize footprint. So you don't really have any choice, which makes it easy.
[21:51] <jojo_> nothing
[21:51] <winterchillz> did you do something that might have caused that jojo_? Re-installing drivers or anything?
[21:52] <BlauskaerM> try switching to a terminal CTRL+ALT+F1 and run dmesg
[21:52] <jojo_> yesterday night I try more cod for  install java
[21:52] <BlauskaerM> Loshki: Thanks man :)
[21:53] <jojo_> when I finish to use my pc , I shutdown that e this morning the machine dont'work
[21:53] <BlauskaerM> Loshki: Just ended up installing a bunch if packages the last time, so wanted to check if there was some basic package that must be installed first
[21:54] <jojo_> I don't know what''s happpened
[21:54] <jojo_> a moment
[21:55] <souuell> what is the proper way in ubuntu to restart networking?
[21:55] <jojo_> now the image desktop come up
[21:55] <souuell> i have configured interfaces for bonding, and now i want to restart ALL OF NETWORKING.  how do you do that on 12.04?
[21:55] <rosco_y> That worked great Ben64--I'm up and running now *knock-knock*
[21:55] <Loshki> BlauskaerM: no, the whole point of the packaging system is to manage all that for you, because no-one wants to have to track it manually (except slackware users apparently). If it fails to install/work on a supported release, it's a bug, and should be reported if possible. Which OS version, btw?
[21:55] <jojo_> and go down!!
[21:56] <winterchillz> souuell: sudo service networking restart?
[21:56] <jojo_> I try to reinstall a ubuntu -desktop but nothing
[21:57] <winterchillz> jojo_: try sudo lightdm restart
[21:57] <Loshki> souuell: you might try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart, but it's not the only networking-related script, so sometimes it's not enough, and you have to run other scripts, or reboot, depending on what you changed.
[21:57] <jojo_> don't change nothing
[21:57] <jojo_> ok
[21:57] <BlauskaerM> Loshki: Ubuntu-server 14.04.2 LTS
[21:58] <Loshki> BlauskaerM: I didn't realise 14.04 was up to .2 already. I'm really happy with 12.04.4. Solid as a rock.
[21:58] <jojo_> nothing
[21:59] <invitado-676876> Hola
[21:59] <jojo_> winterchillz I have anoterone time the same blak windows with the cursor
[21:59] <maum> Does anyone know how to add multiple users with shell script? here is the script but it is not working http://pastebin.com/6ZE2bNWe
[21:59] <Loshki> jojo_: login to another tty (CTRL+ALT+F1) and poke around. Is you home directory and associated config still there?
[22:00] <invitado-676876> Alguien habla español aquí
[22:00] <Loshki> !es | invitado-676876
[22:00] <invitado-676876> Soy nueva y no se donde estoy
[22:00] <bekks> maum: As being told in #bash your script has a huge amount of wrong quotations at least.
[22:01] <jojo_> loshki I don't know
[22:01] <maum> huge amount of wrong quotation?
[22:01] <Loshki> jojo_: well, can you login on an alternate tty?
[22:01] <BlauskaerM> Loshki: Yeah 12.04 was great. Have 12.04 on one of my building machines at work
[22:01] <bekks> maum: thats what you were told in #bash
[22:02] <BlauskaerM> Loshki: BitBake and Yocto needs 12.04 to work :P
[22:02] <jojo_> i have the same thing in all tty
[22:02] <bekks> maum: And then you asked on how to fix that. I read that too ;)
[22:02] <jojo_> now I dont'know what happened the pc is crazy
[22:03] <maum> yes bekks
[22:03] <jojo_> now I have a more symbols in my desktop
[22:03] <maum> I still don't know how to fix the script
[22:03] <Loshki> You're saying CTRL+ALT+F1 (F2, F3, F4...) are all black with no login prompt?
[22:03] <jojo_> but no a gnome desktop
[22:04] <jojo_> loshki yes
[22:04] <jojo_> the login promp is the same don't chang nothing to F1F2F3
[22:05] <bekks> maum: first thing would be not using perl, second thing would be using lowercase variable names, third thing would be using chpasswd for changing the user password after creating the user.
[22:05] <bekks> maum: Like this: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/790-changing-password-via-a-script
[22:06] <Loshki> jojo_: I'm confused. You say all screens are black, but then you said that you have a desktop, allbeit not the one you expected....
[22:07] <phre4k> I wanted to install Xubuntu, error "(initramfs) unable to find medium containing live file system" – tried all the boot options, still doesnt work
[22:07] <winterchillz> !xubuntu | phre4k
[22:07] <jojo_> loshki when I start a machine he make all charge
[22:07] <winterchillz> whoa, it actually worked
[22:08] <jojo_> when he go to the time for to up a desktop I looking the monitor black with a cursor
[22:08] <Loshki> bekks: perl is used to access crypt. Not sure how else to do that part, offhand. The basic idea is sound. The rest is basically grammar & spelling.
[22:08] <abountu> my screen keeps on flickering, I got a new 4k resolution
[22:08] <bekks> Loshki: chpasswd is for chaning the password without perl. :)
[22:09] <bekks> *changing
[22:09] <jojo_> when I make ctrl+alt+F1 F2 F3
[22:09] <jojo_> I look the same login
[22:09] <Loshki> bekks: ah, yes, that's better. maum, pay attention...
[22:09] <bekks> Loshki: I know what perl is intended to do in that script, but keeping it simple would be more targetting for the perl-unexperienced users.
[22:10] <winterchillz> abountu: did you look into what unity-tweak-tool has to offer?
[22:10] <abountu> winterchillz, there are many options, but I see nothing that helps in my problem
[22:10] <phre4k> ubottu: hm, right, because the installer is totally not Ubuntu.
[22:11] <abountu> winterchillz, I installed it, along with the gnome-tweak-tool , I had a look, I couldn't solve either problems
[22:11] <kwesidev> Kernel 3.19 acpi error why that
[22:11] <bekks> kwesidev: Without any context, thats hard to guess.
[22:11] <winterchillz> abountu: unity-tweak-tool -> Fonts should allow you to increase the font
[22:12] <k1l> kwesidev: 3.19 is in no release in ubuntu so far
[22:12] <winterchillz> no idea about the flickering screen though, I'm sorry, I can't even imagine what 4k resolution is
[22:12] <kwesidev> http://www.linuxandubuntu.com/home/linux-kernel-3-19-stable-released-install-upgrade-in-ubuntu-linux-mint
[22:12] <Loshki> phre4k: ubottu is a bot (triggered in this instance by winterchillz). Nevertheless, ubottu's advice is sound.
[22:13] <abountu> winterchillz, I did the scaling, it increases the fonts on some windows, but not much more. I need to be able to see the xterm and the brower etc..
[22:13] <k1l> kwesidev: you are aware that you installed mainline kernels?
[22:13] <kwesidev> yes
[22:13] <kwesidev> mainline isnt good??
[22:13] <Loshki> abountu: I don't know anything about 4k either, but flicker kind of screams hardware...
[22:13] <k1l> !mainline | kwesidev
[22:14] <winterchillz> abountu: you can maybe take a look at this topic: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2164924
[22:14] <abountu> Loshki, ok ... shame
[22:14] <winterchillz> there are similar ones, I used 'ubuntu 4k resolution' as a Google search term
[22:14] <abountu> winterchillz, thanks, I'll have a look
[22:14] <bekks> kwesidev: And in addition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds#Does_the_kernel_team_support_the_mainline_kernel_builds.3F
[22:14] <winterchillz> I'm sorry, abountu, using really old LCD monitor here, even had to google what 4k is :)
[22:15] <abountu> winterchillz, yeah, I just got a latest model dell, and had a really hard time to get ubuntu on it
[22:15] <abountu> winterchillz, now trying to configur it
[22:16] <winterchillz> good luck, mate, hope you can make it. Keep looking around and don't hesitate to ask questions I'm sure there are people around who use 4k, maybe those are just afk right now
[22:16] <Loshki> abountu: 4k is so new, I hope it's under warranty. Linux loves *old* hardware.
[22:16] <Loshki> abountu: or try ##hardware, although they tend to ramble...
[22:17] <abountu> ok thanks
[22:17] <jojo_> I don't knon what I have to do
[22:18] <jojo_> now I have problem report
[22:19] <mikeliss> Anybody know how to run deja-dup in debug mode so I can see why it's failing?
[22:20] <luisgustavo> boa noite galera
[22:21] <luisgustavo> alguém ai sabe se tem como instalar o ubuntu touch no smartphone?
[22:21] <winterchillz> !es | luisgustavo
[22:21] <winterchillz> wild guess
[22:21] <k1l> luisgustavo: #ubuntu-touch for that questions but that is an english channel
[22:21] <OutOFNoWhere_> Hello
[22:22] <OutOFNoWhere_> I need some technical help
[22:22] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_:  shoot, mate
[22:22] <jojo_> loshki?? winterchillz??
[22:22] <jojo_> anyone can resolve my problem?? pls!!
[22:23] <winterchillz> jojo_: I'm unfamiliar with the issue you're facing since restarting the desktop didn't fix it. Any further advices I might give you might be for the worse, can you try the Ubuntu support forums maybe?
[22:23] <dazscaner> Waz the problem?
[22:23] <OutOFNoWhere_> winterchillz, can you pm me
[22:23] <Loshki> jojo_: sorry, seems like you have a GUI problem, for a gui I don't use, so I'm not gonna be much help.
[22:24] <guntbert> !pm| OutOFNoWhere_
[22:24] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: I'm fine with that but it'd be better if you post your question here so everyone can see it. I'm not an expert.
[22:24] <winterchillz> guntbert was faster than me ;)
[22:25] <OutOFNoWhere_> winterchillz, please pm me
[22:25] <k1l> OutOFNoWhere_: just ask in here
[22:25] <guntbert> OutOFNoWhere_: stop that please
[22:25] <SCHAAP137> is there an easy way to edit WINE shortcuts (windows .lnk files)? In gedit there's nullbytes all over the place, difficult to alter
[22:25] <winterchillz> Please see what I wrote above, OutOFNoWhere_, I'm not an expert so just ask here
[22:25] <OutOFNoWhere_> I am having wireless network card issues
[22:26] <k1l> !details | OutOFNoWhere_
[22:26] <OutOFNoWhere_> I can't get it to work
[22:26] <jojo_> the last thing, later I burn a machine. asd!! if I try to open compiz of the terminal I have write FATAL : Couldn't open display
[22:26] <guntbert> !details | OutOFNoWhere_
[22:26] <ianorlin> OutOFNoWhere_, we need to know which wireless card you have to help you
[22:27] <OutOFNoWhere_> guntbert, when I go to system and try to enable the driver for the wireless card, it gets stuck
[22:27] <winterchillz> what wireless card do you have and how do you try to enable the driver for it?
[22:27] <OutOFNoWhere_> broadcom wlan 1490
[22:29] <Loshki> Not sure I have the right model. Is it one of these? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2136394
[22:29] <OutOFNoWhere_> I go to system>software& updates> additional drivers
[22:30] <OutOFNoWhere_> winterchillz, I go to system>software& updates> additional drivers
[22:30] <OutOFNoWhere_> then where it says broadcom wlan 1490
[22:31] <OutOFNoWhere_> and I click on "apply changes" after selecting the driver
[22:31] <OutOFNoWhere_> then it gets stuck, nothing happens for hours
[22:33] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:    trying to update the broadcomm wlan drivers?
[22:33] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: take a look at the topic Loshki posted and this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2011756
[22:34] <jojo_> tells you something : Warning symbol map for key <RALT> redefined using last definition for conflicting fields
[22:35] <jojo_> or : Warning : type "ONE LEVEL" has 1 levels but <RALT> has 2 symbols ignoring extra symbols
[22:36] <jojo_> errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the x server
[22:36] <jojo_> anyone have any idea what the problem is reported ??
[22:37] <OutOFNoWhere_> Hey, thanks for posting the link, but at the end it doesn't go anywhere
[22:38] <OutOFNoWhere_> they don't find a solution
[22:38] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:    trying to update the broadcomm wlan drivers? for you could try that from apt-get
[22:39] <winterchillz> Follow bprompt_'s advice and see post number #6 and #7 on the link I pasted. It seems they managed to find a solution
[22:40] <jojo_> everything i try to open with a terminal I read dispay is not set or can't open dispay
[22:42] <luis_> como faço para instalar o ubuntu no smartphone?
[22:42] <winterchillz> jojo_: I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't be of any further help, try to post a topic over at ubuntuforums.org
[22:42] <jojo_> how can I go on the window of user switching. and change the type of desktop terminal ??
[22:42] <k1l> luis_: #ubuntu-touch for that topic but that channel is english only
[22:43] <jojo_> maybe I have a problem with gnome/desktop
[22:43] <jhutchins> jojo_: That happens when the system isn't identifying the user in the terminal as the one who owns the screen.
[22:43] <jhutchins> jojo_: Usually that's if you'v logged in as another user, or if you've run a GUI program as root.
[22:44] <jhutchins> jojo_: A couple of things to check:  List the ownership and permissions of files in your home directory, including hidden files;
[22:44] <jhutchins> jojo_: You can also try creating a new user and logging in as that user.
[22:45] <jojo_> How do I create a new user with a terminal ??
[22:46] <stijndg> #sudo adduser newuser
[22:46] <popey> jojo_: sudo adduser foo
[22:47] <stijndg> then you'll get some prompts to specify your pass etc
[22:47] <jojo_> ok popey
[22:47] <bagginsDK> Hello guys!
[22:47] <jojo_> now how I star this
[22:48] <popey> saf
[22:48] <popey> er, star?
[22:48] <bagginsDK> I face up a problem with my usb drive stick. I am entering but i cannot see it in my devices. How can i work around this?
[22:49] <jojo_> such as start a new user from a terminal??
[22:49] <popey> jojo_: I dont understand the question.
[22:50] <stijndg> can you rephrase that bagginsDK i have no clue what you are trying to do
[22:50] <jojo_> i have make a new user from a terminal. now I wont to swich a user
[22:50] <popey> su - foo
[22:51] <popey> where "foo" is the new user
[22:51] <bagginsDK> stijndg: You are right. I am little tired. Although i insert a usb flash drive or a SD card adapter, i cannot see them in file manager
[22:52] <jojo_> I try
[22:52] <OutOFNoWhere_> winterchillz, I did what is posted in post # 5 I get this message "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?"
[22:52] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: Do you have Ubuntu Software Center or Synaptic running? Maybe updates currently being installed?
[22:52] <OutOFNoWhere_> sudo apt get install linux-firmware-nonfree
[22:53] <OutOFNoWhere_> how do I know which program is using it and how do I undo it
[22:53] <winterchillz> stijndg: I assume he wants to manually mount the flash drive to a mount point. Unsure of the command to use myself
[22:53] <winterchillz> did apt-get finished?
[22:53] <OutOFNoWhere_> no
[22:53] <OutOFNoWhere_> after I hit enter, I get that error message
[22:54] <winterchillz> oh
[22:54] <freeroute> omg guys I'm compiling openssh and it configured first try - http://ssh.kpaste.net/831edb4 - I'm super happy :D
[22:55] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:   why are you tyring to install the broadcomm drivers anyway?
[22:55] <stijndg> is automount enabled or is this the first flash/usb drive you used
[22:55] <freeroute> so is this the point where I uninstall openssh?
[22:55] <bekks> freeroute: Why are you compiling it, instead of just installing it?
[22:55] <freeroute> bekks: I'm running 12.04 and I need a version of 6.5+
[22:55] <bekks> freeroute: what for, exactly?
[22:56] <teward> freeroute: is there a reason you need openssh 6.5+ at all?
[22:56] <bagginsDK> strijndg how can i see if automount is enabled?
[22:56] <freeroute> for the following features - https://stribika.github.io/2015/01/04/secure-secure-shell.html
[22:56] <winterchillz> bprompt_: He's having troubles activating the driver for his WiFi card and two topics are what we found that might possibly relate to the issue. I think he ignored all your advices so far
[22:56] <AlexPortable> how can I get HDMI-CEC to work?
[22:56] <AlexPortable> There is nothing on the internet available
[22:57] <stijndg> go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB check out the "Configuring Automounting" section
[22:57] <bprompt_> winterchillz:    activating?   is usually already activated at installation, last I recall had to do that... was in ubuntu 10 or so I think, and I'm sure he's not running 10.40
[22:57] <bekks> !info openssh-server precise
[22:57] <jojo_> popey nothing
[22:57] <bprompt_> s/10.40/10.04/
[22:57] <stijndg> that is how i got it to work :)
[22:57] <OutOFNoWhere_> winterchillz, I copied this message from my terminal "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?"
[22:58] <OutOFNoWhere_> that message I got after doing "sudo apt get install linux-firmware-nonfree'
[22:58] <winterchillz> bprompt_: Don't ask me :) He's just saying that the "Additional Drivers" window freezes when he tries to turn the driver for his wifi card on
[22:58] <freeroute> !info openssh-server trusty
[22:59] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: bprompt_ had a few suggestions regarding your issue maybe check with him
[22:59] <bagginsDK> stijndg, but before mounting there must be in /media/{{user.name}} a folder of each usb flash drive? That's my question. I cannot see them at all
[22:59] <freeroute> !info openssh-server trusty-backports
[23:00] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:      just because there are "additional drivers", doesn't mean you have to install them, "if it ain't broken, don't fix it"
[23:00] <bekks> freeroute: you are running 12.04, so trusty-backports is useless for you.
[23:00] <teward> !info openssh-server precise-backports
[23:00] <freeroute> bekks: on the host, yes, but I'm running 14.04 in a VM
[23:00] <fedora_newb> Does anyone run ubuntu in virtualbox? I am having issues in getting it to run smoothly. Just very sluggish. When clicking on the ubuntu button, takes forever to open and when selecting a program, takes a bit for it to open as well.
[23:01] <bekks> !info openssh-server trusty
[23:01] <teward> freeroute: um, which are you trying to secure, the VM or the host?
[23:01] <teward> freeroute: trusty has 6.6
[23:01] <OutOFNoWhere_> bprompt_, I am trying to enable it because my internal wirelass card is not connecting to the local wifi
[23:01] <k1l> fedora_newb: well, depends on how much power you give the vbox guest :)
[23:01] <freeroute> bekks: and hopefully I can also switch once I get my backup working and the configuration straight
[23:01] <teward> freeroute: if you're trying to secure the host, then you should try and backport the Trusty version to Precise probably in a PPA
[23:01] <stijndg> bagginsDK, not sure about this maybe someone else here can spread more light on this but as far as i know the drive needs to be mounted before appearing in /media
[23:01] <freeroute> *to 14.04
[23:02] <stijndg> i think it wont appear there before mounting
[23:02] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:     so.... how do you know is not connecting?   are you going through the wifi manager and seeing it grayed out or something?   or the system says " no wifi"?
[23:02] <fedora_newb> k1l, 4 gigs of mem, 45gb space, 2 processors 90% cap limit, 12mb video memory, 3d acceleration
[23:02] <freeroute> teward: in order to connect to the trusty's sshd (the way it is configured according to the article), your client must be also one of the later versions
[23:02] <fedora_newb> 128mb*
[23:02] <bekks> freeroute: Thats not true.
[23:02] <OutOFNoWhere_> brompt, there is no wifi manager
[23:02] <k1l> fedora_newb: guest additions installed?
[23:02] <OutOFNoWhere_> not appearing
[23:02] <bekks> freeroute: I am successfully connecting to trusty from precise, without any modifications.
[23:02] <teward> freeroute: that doesn't answer my question
[23:03] <fedora_newb> k1l, yes
[23:03] <k1l> fedora_newb: hmmm
[23:03] <teward> bekks: he's looking to follow that article he posted for modified configurations
[23:03] <freeroute> right
[23:03] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:     well... then that'd explain the lack of wifi connection, doesn't mean the broadcomm drivers arean't loaded though, what DM do you have... lxde? unity? kde?
[23:03] <freeroute> and in that guide, there are ways to both customize the configuration of the clients as well as servers
[23:04] <OutOFNoWhere_> brompt_, I don't know what that is, I am on ubuntu
[23:04] <freeroute> seeing as though the older ssh clients don't have some ciphers/MACs/kexalgos, it becomes very hard to connect to a customized sshd
[23:05] <winterchillz> should be unity then
[23:05] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:     ok..... do you see on the system tray.... an icon that looks like a "V"     looks like a car windshield...... that'd be the wifi manager..... left-click it, and it'd show the available connections
[23:05] <bekks> freeroute: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh
[23:06] <bekks> freeroute: Sorry, wrong link.
[23:06] <OutOFNoWhere_> bprompt, I don't have the 'v', the wireless icon
[23:07] <popey> jojo_: what do you mean "nothing"?
[23:07] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:     and you're on 14.04 right?
[23:07] <fedora_newb> k1l, you know of a good tutorial of the guest addition addons? Just want to make sure I did everything right
[23:07] <freeroute> so at which point during the compilation of a software package do I have to uninstall the previously installed package which is from the repos?
[23:08] <Geo> does anyone have any thoughts on this error? http://pastebin.com/jT21mLjF ... Trying to install ubuntu from a liveUSB stick via a serial console connection. It just hangs from this point on, no matter what I enter.
[23:08] <tsoutseki_> why should i use ubuntu over something else?
[23:08] <fedora_newb> Had a friend walk me through it awhile back, just want to make sure we didn't miss something
[23:08] <OutOFNoWhere_> bprompt_, it is showing up and down arrow key as network connection upper right corner
[23:08] <jojo_> popey I can not see the desktop
[23:08] <popey> jojo_: you didn't say you wanted to.
[23:08] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:    http://www.itcs.sissa.it/_media/services/wifi/lin/wifi_ub1.jpeg    <--- looks like that icon there
[23:08] <popey> jojo_: if you want the desktop of the new user, logout, and log back in as the new user
[23:08] <jojo_> easy
[23:09] <k1l> fedora_newb: see this 1st answer http://askubuntu.com/questions/22743/how-do-i-install-guest-additions-in-a-virtualbox-vm
[23:09] <OutOFNoWhere_> bprompt_, yes, that icon is not appearing here
[23:09] <jojo_> I don't have request for psw when I start a machine. auto!
[23:09] <OutOFNoWhere_> I am connected through a cat5 cable
[23:10] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:     I see
[23:10] <jojo_> popey I'll explain my problem
[23:10] <OutOFNoWhere_> yes, ubuntu 14.04 lts
[23:11] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:      the drivers for broadcomm.... would be in the bcmwl-kernel-source package, thus to install/upgrade  do a ->   sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
[23:11] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_ | bprompt_ I wonder if ifconfig would list the adapter
[23:12] <Geo> winterchillz: not if it isnt active - dmesg should
[23:12] <Geo> does anyone have any thoughts on this error? http://pastebin.com/jT21mLjF ... Trying to install ubuntu from a liveUSB stick via a serial console connection. It just hangs from this point on, no matter what I enter.
[23:12] <OutOFNoWhere_> k
[23:13] <bprompt_> OutOFNoWhere_:     as winterchillz     said... check if there's any connection at all.....  a wifi for that matter, try ->   iwconfig  <-- see if it list anything with 802.11 on it
[23:14] <popey> jojo_: go to system settings -> users, and disable auto login

[23:19] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: Something is currently using the package manager. Do you have Ubuntu Software Center or Synaptic running?

[23:30] <lhorace> Hello, does anyone know a good spell checking (dictionary) program?
[23:31] <jhutchins> lhorace: For what applications?
[23:31] <bprompt> lhorace:    just a dictionary? or something for a word processor/
[23:31] <Geo> does anyone have any thoughts on this error? http://pastebin.com/jT21mLjF ... Trying to install ubuntu from a liveUSB stick via a serial console connection. It just hangs from this point on, no matter what I enter.
[23:32] <OutOFNoWhere_> bprompt_, I get this message :
[23:32] <OutOFNoWhere_>  sudo rm/var/lib/dpkg/lock; sudo dpkg --configure -a; sudo: rm/var/lib/dpkg/lock: command not found dpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process
[23:32] <lhorace> I am looking for something I can quickly check word spelling and optionally lookup word definitions. I tried opendict and can't see to offer spelling suggestions or find the word I am attempting to spell
[23:33] <bprompt> hmm
[23:34] <jhutchins> lhorace: Again, within what applications?  There are several spellcheck subsystems available, but most gui apps incorporate them already.
[23:34] <bprompt> OutOFNoWhere_:    you're sorta missing a "space" there, is an "rm" command
[23:34] <lhorace> jhutchins: standalone, going to give GoldenDict a shot
[23:34] <jhutchins> lhorace: http://dsl.org/cookbook/cookbook_15.html
[23:35] <bprompt> lhorace:     I like stardict myself, though I also have goldendict, but stardict has a QT GUI, Qstardict, which is rather nice
[23:35] <lhorace> bprompt: Goldendickt seems pretty nice. Spell cheks as you type and tabbed support
[23:36] <bprompt> lhorace:     and both stardict and goldendict use the same dictionary files, just different UI
[23:36] <lhorace> I see
[23:36] <jhutchins> lhorace: You probably have aspell installed already.  Run by itself it gives usage info.
[23:37] <OutOFNoWhere_> bprompt_, the command executed
[23:37] <lhorace> jhutchins: A GUI would be better. Thanks.
[23:37] <lhorace> I settled for GoldenDict :)
[23:37] <bprompt> lhorace:    same with Qstardict,  it spellcheck as you type, also has a "scan" feature, that scans text upon a key-combination IIRC, I've used it a couple of times, I have it off anyhow
[23:38] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: I guess you can try sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source now bprompt
[23:38] <OutOFNoWhere_> now apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source, execute this command?
[23:38] <OutOFNoWhere_> winterchillz, ok
[23:39] <OutOFNoWhere_> now, I am getting this:
[23:39] <OutOFNoWhere_>  sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information...

E: Could not get
[23:39] <lhorace> bprompt: I'll check that out for large text. I usually use libreoffice for such things. Might be a overkill
[23:40] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: please, please use paste.ubuntu.com for such output
[23:40] <OutOFNoWhere_> k,
[23:41] <OutOFNoWhere_> how do I close the "software center"?
[23:42] <lhorace> OutOFNoWhere_: Move the mouse to the top panel
[23:42] <lhorace> It will show the x button
[23:43] <Basketball> hey
[23:44] <hellhound> does anyone know how to get rid of the white envelope for XChat located in the notification panel in Ubuntu?
[23:44] <winterchillz> hi Basketball
[23:44] <OutOFNoWhere_> lhorace, I don't see the x, I don't even know which one is the "software center" in ubuntu
[23:45] <OutOFNoWhere_> on the left pane, I see 10 logos
[23:45] <OutOFNoWhere_> eleven with the recycle bin
[23:46] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: it looks like a shopping bag in orange color
[23:46] <Basketball> how can I get chrome os like updates in ubuntu
[23:46] <OutOFNoWhere_> k, it has the big A symbol?
[23:47] <winterchillz> yes
[23:47] <bprompt_> chrome-os-like updates?      how are chrome-os updates?
[23:47] <Basketball> bprompt_, they auto do it on shutdown and reboot
[23:47] <Basketball> you never see a message or anything
[23:47] <Basketball> it is all system automated
[23:47] <lhorace> OutOFNoWhere_: If the software center window is not maximize, it should be on the top left border, of that Window
[23:48] <OutOFNoWhere_> k, it is not on
[23:48] <OutOFNoWhere_> winterchillz, lhorace, 'software center" is not running
[23:49] <winterchillz> OutOFNoWhere_: retry sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source and paste the output in paste.ubuntu.com then link it here
[23:49] <OutOFNoWhere_> when I right click on it I see "ubuntu software center" and below that "unlock from launcher"
[23:49] <winterchillz> no need to do that
[23:49] <winterchillz> just make sure it's closed
[23:49] <OutOFNoWhere_> k
[23:49] <bprompt_> Basketball:      hmmm I think you can set all that in the "software center" settings, or in Synaptic, to do everything on auto and without notification, not that I like it myself... .or is the default I don't think, chromeOS-like defaults sounds a lot like windows-like defaults btw, only thing is in windows you get a notification scaring the heck out of you with defcon4 "critical updates", but I think you can turn that off as well i
[23:51] <OutOFNoWhere_> winterchillz,http://paste.ubuntu.com/10477143/
[23:51] <winterchillz> hmm, this is weird. I don't think I've seen that error before
[23:52] <lhorace>  I can still run apt-get install even if 'Software Center' is running
[23:53] <lhorace> I wonder what 'lsof /var/cache/apt/archives/lock'
[23:53] <lhorace> say
[23:54] <bprompt_> lhorace:     depends on the operation I'd think, if the operation requires "su" access, the dpkg would be locked up, if not, while still in the window viewing/reading, then is not locked up
[23:55] <lhorace> bprompt_: Yeah, anything besides add/removing software
[23:55] <winterchillz> I quickly google'd it, some users suggest rebooting your machine, other removing the folders completely, can't advise on either but reboot sounds better to me
[23:55] <lhorace> Reboot sounds reasonable to me
[23:55] <OutOFNoWhere_> k, winterchilz
[23:56] <Zach443> How can I set my servers' hostname to a domain so I could use server.example.com to SSH ?
[23:59] <OutOFNoWhere_> something else
[23:59] <OutOFNoWhere_> I should mention
[23:59] <OutOFNoWhere_> when I did sudo apt-get install update
[23:59] <Geo> Zach443: edit the /etc/hosts file  if you're only doing that on the local machine
[23:59] <OutOFNoWhere_> I got this message
[23:59] <Geo> otherwise, you need to update a DNS server somewhere with that info
[23:59] <OutOFNoWhere_> should I post it here?
