[14:31] <loin> hi, is there a easy way to build a executable on a newer ubuntu that will run on older debians? currently it says that my glibc is too old when trying to run on older systems. when i objdump i find out that it uses memcpy from GLIBC_2.14 instead of using the memcpy from an older version. i don't want to use hacks such as __asm__(".symver memcpymemcpy@GLIBC_2.2.5"); in my c code
[14:31] <malimbar> ah, found out why - was using the wrong sound input
[14:31] <lotuspsychje> !yay | malimbar
[14:32] <lotuspsychje> loin: maybe the #ubuntu-devel guys might know more on that
[14:33] <loin> thanks lotuspsychje
[14:39] <bipul> I would like to know about EasyEngine
[14:39] <sadsagfjg> Hi,I want to install this How? :  QGraphicsView
[14:39] <bazhang> what is that bipul
[14:40] <bazhang> !info qgraphicsview
[14:40] <cfhowlett> bazhang, seems to be a wiki engine
[14:40] <bazhang> sadsagfjg, from where
[14:40] <bazhang> cfhowlett, ok thanks
[14:40] <sadsagfjg> bazhang: from qt
[14:40] <bipul> A linux shell script. Which is used to manage wordpress and Nginx website. On Ubuntu and Debian server.
[14:41] <k1l> hs366: on ubuntu the user needs "sudo" permissions. the root account is not enabled in standard install. but you can preface a command with sudo to make the command run with root permissions
[14:41] <bazhang> sadsagfjg, is it qtgraphicsview? or just the q
[14:41] <sadsagfjg> mean I want to install libaray qt for c[[
[14:41] <sadsagfjg> mean I want to install libaray qt for cpp
[14:42] <sadsagfjg> bazhang: mean I want to install All libaray qt for cpp
[14:42] <bipul> bazhang, Could you tell me. What kind of task it perform "wget -qO ee rt.cx/ee && sudo bash ee" I am curious to know, the steps of this command.
[14:43] <Pici> bipul: it downloads a script, then runs it as root.
[14:44] <sadsagfjg> I want to install All libaray qt for cpp.How?
[14:44] <bipul> Pici, Download it from where?, How could i know the source of server? I mean is it listed in Ubuntu repository?
[14:45] <Pici> bipul: It is not in the Ubuntu repositories.  The script is located at http://rt.cx/ee.
[14:45] <bipul> Oh i see.
[14:46] <sadsagfjg> I want to install All libaray qt for cpp.How? Please answer :(
[14:46] <bazhang> sadsagfjg, apt-cache search cpp  and find them
[14:46] <sadsagfjg> bazhang: :p
[14:46] <bipul> Pici, Thank you. That's what i am looking for. Thanks for explaining me the whole command.
[14:46] <bazhang> sadsagfjg, or packages ubuntu com
[14:47] <sadsagfjg> bazhang: ok thanks

[14:48] <backupquestion> hi, should I stop dovecot before backupping /var/vmail?
[15:00] <phoenician> hello everyone, in the output of 'dmidecode -t memory' there are two specifications: '	Maximum Memory Module Size: 4096 MB	Maximum Total Memory Size: 8192 MB'...does it mean I can extend my memory up to 8GB or 4GB?
[15:02] <bazhang> phoenician, two 4gb sticks
[15:03] <phoenician> oh I see, bazhang, so the first one refers to max capacity of hardware, second the total of both..
[15:04] <bazhang> max module is 4g times two slots phoenician
[15:05] <phoenician> I also wasnt sure about it because I found varying specs about ram for my machine model, some said 4gb, others 8gb
[15:07] <phoenician> would doubling the ram capacity from 4gb to 8gb boost the performance (speed) of a 64-bit computer?
[15:08] <chadmandoo> hey all

[15:12] <Knight80> Hello everyone!
[15:12] <Knight80> Good afternoon from Spain!
[15:14] <Knight80> I've got a problem with my Ubuntu. Whenever I try to browse the network, no windows machines appear. In my home network there are two computers, one with Ubuntu and another with Windows. It used to work fine, but it hasn't worked for a couple of days.
[15:14] <Knight80> Any suggestions?
[15:17] <newuser> how to encrypt any files/folders in ubuntu ?
[15:18] <cfhowlett> !encryption | newuser
[15:19] <newuser> cfhowlett: not directories but specific files/folders in any location
[15:19] <cfhowlett> newuser, !  ok
[15:19] <EriC^^> newuser: gpg -c /path/to/file
[15:20] <EriC^^> gpg -d to decrypt
[15:20] <Knight80> I've got a problem with my Ubuntu. Whenever I try to browse the network, no windows machines appear. In my home network there are two computers, one with Ubuntu and another with Windows. It used to work fine, but it hasn't worked for a couple of days.
[15:21] <Knight80> No ideas?
[15:21] <newuser> EriC^^: yea, I wanted to use gpg but I don't know anything about it! so what if I move the files to another computer and do the decrypt then will it work ?? or in a new ubuntu installation on my own system also ??
[15:22] <EriC^^> yeah it'll work
[15:22] <EriC^^> in my experience
[15:23] <EriC^^> newuser: try and see
[15:24] <newuser> EriC^^: how to use the encrypted data on windows ?? and gpg --help shows -e for encryption and -c for encryption with symmetric cipher
[15:24] <EriC^^> newuser: gpg -o /path/to/decrypted file -d /path/to/encrypedfile.gpg
[15:24] <Knight80> Ok, problem solved, thank you.
[15:25] <EriC^^> newuser: gpg -c /file/to/encrypt , will create an ecrypted.gpg file in the same location
[15:25] <Knight80> Updating solved the problem.
[15:25] <EriC^^> newuser: never tried it on windows though... so try it and see
[15:26] <newuser> EriC^^: you mean encrypted.gpg as a password file ?
[15:27] <EriC^^> newuser: no it will create an encrypted file of whatever you encrypted
[15:27] <EriC^^> there's no password file
[15:27] <newuser> ok
[15:27] <EriC^^> you use the same passphrase to decrypt
[15:27] <newuser> ok
[15:28] <newuser> but when and where do I enter passphrase ?
[15:28] <newuser> before encrypting ?
[15:28] <EriC^^> after you type gpg -c /path/to/file
[15:28] <EriC^^> it will ask for a passphrase
[15:28] <newuser> ok
[15:28] <newuser> let me try
[15:29] <newuser> EriC^^: cool...super easy and handy
[15:30] <EriC^^> yeah
[15:30] <newuser> is there any way of decrypting and cracking this ??
[15:30] <newuser> without passphrase ?
[15:31] <OpenTokix> newuser: yes, but it takes a while
[15:31] <OpenTokix> newuser: depends on resources
[15:31] <OpenTokix> newuser: and quality of your passphrase
[15:33] <newuser> OpenTokix: ok but as compared to archive compress and encrypt function how is this gpg method ?
[15:33] <OpenTokix> newuser: as good
[15:33] <newuser> I should be at ease for security then ? OpenTokix
[15:34] <OpenTokix> newuser: Depends what you are protecting against, like someone stealing your computer. - Sure. - Foregin goverment, probably not
[15:34] <newuser> governments for sure otherwise I dont worry about stealing
[15:34] <OpenTokix> newuser: you worry about goverments want your data?
[15:35] <OpenTokix> newuser: And ask about it on #ubuntu on freenode? ....
[15:35] <newuser> lol
[15:36] <teward> OpenTokix: um, that's here.
[15:36] <OpenTokix> teward: Read the whole conversation
[15:36] <teward> [2015-02-04 10:35:17] <OpenTokix> newuser: And ask about it on #ubuntu on freenode? ....  <-- that's this channel
[15:37] <teward> OpenTokix: (I was only commenting on that part)
[15:37] <OpenTokix> teward: ok, don't
[15:38] <teward> newuser: encryption is a multi-faceted thing.  Unless your passphrase on your key is cryptographically strong in relation to the bitstrength on the key, it may be easier for governments / blackhat hackers / malicious threat actors to crack the passphrase on the GPG private key.  However, that private key is needed for decryption.
[15:39] <teward> newuser: if someone has your computer, then they have your private key and can start to try and bruteforce the password for the private key.  Ultimately, this is as good as encrypted ZIP files holding the data, albeit you don't get compression out of the box with the GPG encryption
[15:39] <teward> (unless you compress it and then encrypt the compressed file)
[15:42] <teward> newuser: so long as you keep your GPG private keys in a safe location, you should be relatively OK.  Choosing a cryptographically strong password helps (random letters, numbers, symbols, and punctuation, equal to a character length equal to the number of bytes that your bitstrength corresponds to)
[15:43] <EriC^^> pkzip has a really weak encryption algorithm, it can be cracked in a couple minutes using a plain text attack
[15:43] <teward> ^
[15:44] <jnhghy> is there a way to set a variable in a ssh session on the fly? so after I ssh to my ubuntu to set a variable like $PRINTER="1" and then be able to use that variable while I'm in ssh and after I disconnect the variable to be lost?
[15:44] <EriC^^> it's still used though cause some countries ban strong encryption
[15:44] <EriC^^> i think it's default for winzip's encryption
[15:48] <Bish> hey guys, how can i use ruby1.9 as my default ruby?
[15:49] <ssinfod> Hello, I need some help with cross compilation of a WiFi driver. Is this the right channel to ask question ?
[15:53] <DJJeff> Damn Small Linux or (DSL) is based on Debian Woody? for some reason it uses kernel 2.4.31 and can read the data from my usb stick but ubuntu 8.04 or higher can not why would this be
[15:54] <k1l> DJJeff: what FS is on that stick? and what does "dmesg" print you after you sticked it in the usb port?
[15:56] <DJJeff> I think its ext2/3 but it wont mount because of I/O errors
[15:57] <DJJeff> when I ran hexdump -C /dev/sdg1 it shows data and the light on the stick blinks fast
[15:58] <DJJeff> but after 5min of hexdump it just shows I/O error and I am trying to recover the data
[15:58] <DJJeff> well as much as possible
[16:00] <DJJeff> my loss for putting important data on a $30 16GB sandisk piece of crap
[16:01] <oal> After upgrading to 14.10, Java stopped working in Firefox. I need it for my bank. Is there a package I can install from apt-get? I already have icedtea installed

[16:03] <DJJeff> thats DMESG/syslog output
[16:03] <chadmandoo> hey how would i know if a computer I purchase would be supported on ubuntu, particularly the graphics card
[16:04] <MonkeyDust> !hardware | chadmandoo start here
[16:04] <cfhowlett> chadmandoo, check before you buy:  http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/
[16:05] <chadmandoo> if its not on the certified list will it still be possible to work?
[16:05] <cfhowlett> chadmandoo, possible
[16:06] <chadmandoo> im looking to buy a laptop with the 5th gen i7
[16:07] <cfhowlett> chadmandoo, you have the list.  whether or not you choose to, oh, choose wisely, is up to you.
[16:07] <DJones> chadmandoo: I'd be tempted to pick a laptop and then do a search for the specific model on ubuntuforums and see whether anybody has made any comments
[16:07] <chadmandoo> DJones: i completely agree.  Here is the model i am looking at http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?oc=cai157w8ps5208&model_id=inspiron-15-7548-laptop&c=us&l=en&s=bsd&cs=04

[16:09] <k1l> DJJeff: i only find bug report for the sense key: no sense bug for old ubuntus and redhats, that are closed due to that old versions are end of life. so either try a recent ubuntu or use dsl to recover data.
[16:10] <k1l> DJJeff: but its always possible that the usb is just gone and not recoverable
[16:16] <bodie_> Hi all, I'm trying to grep through ps for a value of a var I'm setting at runtime on the command line; for instance, "foo=5 sleep 10"
[16:17] <bodie_> however, it seems ps axe doesn't actually show vars set in that way
[16:17] <bodie_> (even as su)
[16:17] <DJJeff> dsl does not have file recovery tools
[16:17] <bodie_> neither is that value in /proc/[pid]/environ or /proc/[pid]/cmdline

[16:24] <DJJeff> sudo apt-get install testdisk
[16:24] <DJJeff> TestDisk 6.14, Data Recovery Utility
[16:24] <william_> will try
[16:25] <DJJeff> depends how long ago you deleted the vm
[16:25] <DJJeff> best to try and recover right away

[16:26] <william_> How can i get back the windows 7 key?
[16:26] <william_> its a paid key
[16:27] <k1l> oh, that might be overwritten already several times now.
[16:27] <cfhowlett> william_, ask #microsoft or #windows
 will try
[16:27] <MonkeyDust> william_  type /j ##windows and ask there
[16:27] <william_> will try
[16:27] <k1l> william_: you should have got a bill or some read license sticker etc with that key. so ask the one who you bought that key from

[16:46] <GeekDude> Bit of an odd question... I've got two hard drives and a dvd drive in my desktop. I have the main drive on SATA-0, DVD on SATA-1, and secondary drive on SATA-2. In the BIOS I have SATA-1 and SATA-2 disabled, but I can still mount the secondary hard drive somehow. Why is that?
[16:47] <beard_s_brush> what the difference between linux and debian?
[16:47] <cfhowlett> beard_s_brush, discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic

I googled and found this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/1174272 but I don't think I have the same issue since I don't get to prompt. Any ideas?
[16:53] <rozica> I tried all different poweroff options in command line but it didn't work for me.

[16:59] <Guest38212> chao
[17:01] <rozica> So no Ideas why my computer won't reboot or poweroff :/
[17:01] <rozica> What service could hog computer running??
[17:02] <rozica> This is how it looks like when I poweroff/reboot computer http://i.imgur.com/KQ4nHeZ.jpg It never halts.
[17:02] <theadmin> rozica: Try adding the following kernel parameter: reboot=b
[17:03] <rozica> theadmin: and for the poweroff?
[17:03] <theadmin> rozica: Should help for that too, actually
[17:03] <theadmin> rozica: Well, might, if the issue is the one I'm thinking of
[17:04] <rozica> theadmin: will try in a minute. hang on
[17:08] <pentarex> hey guys how i can find the directory of my shell with a command
[17:09] <k1l> pentarex: "pwd"
[17:09] <k1l> PrintWorkingDirectory
[17:09] <pentarex> k1l this is for the directory. I want to find with a command the path /bin/sh the directory of the current shel
[17:09] <k1l> you want to know which shell you are running?
[17:10] <pentarex> yes and its directory
[17:10] <k1l> see where "/bin/sh" links too
[17:10] <rozica> theadmin: I should add that line to /etc/default/grub file? and line in question for editing would be: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash noapic reboot=b"
[17:10] <k1l> pentarex: echo $SHELL #that should print it too
[17:11] <pentarex> echo $SHELL is the right answer
[17:11] <pentarex> thank you mate
[17:11] <theadmin> rozica: Should go like that, yes. Although I'm not sure why you have "noapic" there, are you sure that should be there?
[17:12] <rozica> theadmin: in one if my attempt for solving this problem and on one of ask ubuntu was suggested. I'll remove it because it didn't work for me. When I power off will those parameters already be active?
[17:12] <theadmin> rozica: No, you have to reboot first
[17:12] <theadmin> rozica: For that, well, you'll have to force it via hardware button I guess
[17:12] <rozica> theadmin: ok I'll come back later. Yeah :)
[17:16] <fxmulder> anyone gotten the oculus rift to work in ubuntu?
[17:18] <collinanderson> I want to install an up-to-date ubuntu desktop. If I have an 11.04 desktop cd and a 12.04.4 server cd, which should I use as a start? the older desktop cd?
[17:18] <theadmin> collinanderson: Eeeh. Why not get a new image from ubuntu.com?
[17:19] <collinanderson> theadmin: cause I don't have a cd burner :)
[17:19] <theadmin> collinanderson: You can use a USB stick to install.
[17:19] <k1l> nope. the server cd. then install ubuntu-desktop afterwards. but i would suggest to get a 14.04 iso and put it onto a usb drive and install with that
[17:19] <collinanderson> theadmin: yeah, i thought you'd say USB.
[17:19] <collinanderson> yeah, i think i'll do USB.
[17:19] <collinanderson> that easy to do from os x?
[17:20] <theadmin> collinanderson: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx
[17:20] <rozica> theadmin: it didn't work. The result is exactly the same as before I added reboot=b
[17:21] <theadmin> rozica: :( Well, that was one thing I could think of. Honestly, I'm not sure what may cause this issue
[17:22] <collinanderson> theadmin k1l: thanks.
[17:23] <rozica> theadmin: ok thanx anyway.
[17:24] <mcphail> rozica: what exactly happens when you try to reboot? I can't follow your links above as on work computer
[17:24] <rozica> mcphail: It doesn't really reboot
[17:24] <rozica> I have to hard press power off button
[17:25] <mcphail> anything on the console?
[17:25] <rozica> mcphail: yes: http://i.imgur.com/KQ4nHeZ.jpg
[17:25] <rozica> mcphail: I must go sorry :(
[17:25] <mcphail> ok
[17:25] <rozica> you can write anyway I'll read later
[17:26] <mcphail> rozica: ^ can't follow the screenshot links from this computer, i'm afraid
[17:27] <dupingping> how can i get full window image includes it's decoration in opengl plugin and convert it to memory buffer?
[17:29] <mcphail> dupingping: can you phrase the question a little better?
[17:29] <dupingping> yes
[17:29] <dupingping> in compiz.
[17:30] <dupingping> how can i get the window's image and convert it to memory buffer?
[17:31] <dupingping> in compiz source code,
[17:31] <dupingping> ubuntu use opengl plugin.
[17:31] <dupingping> In opengl plugin, can i get window image?
[17:32] <mcphail> dupingping: I don't hink this is the best channel for support with hacking compiz. It may have a development channel of its own
[17:32] <mcphail> *think
[17:32] <dupingping> compiz channel?
[17:33] <dupingping> i also tried in compiz channel.
[17:33] <dupingping> there is no man in compiz channel.
[17:34] <mcphail> dupingping: I'm afraid this is the ubuntu support channel. Software development would be offtopic

[17:45] <Ozymandias42> it’s a screenshot from Ubuntu 14.10 32Bit running on HP Stream 7
[17:45] <Ozymandias42> I have a question concerining this but I’m not sure if it belongs here.
[17:46] <Ozymandias42> It’s the following: Audio is not working atm and I have likely have to apply some patches or install modules to make it work. Can someone point me to a general guide in how to do this kind of thing?
[17:47] <SCHAAP137> Ozymandias42, there are multiple ways to use audio in ubuntu (or linux in general), there is no one method for it
[17:47] <Ozymandias42> I have already found guides on how to apply patches for Wifi and the touchpad but I’m pretty new to adding stuff to the kernel so I could need some help here
[17:48] <SCHAAP137> Ozymandias42: is your audio interface mentioned in the response of pci -v ?
[17:48] <SCHAAP137> *lspci -v
[17:49] <Ozymandias42> it appears in the dmesg. it’s currently in WIndows making a backup so I can’t try any commands atm
[17:49] <SCHAAP137> if it appears in dmesg, the kernel recognizes it, so there is no need to adjust the kernel
[17:49] <Ozymandias42> “[  +0.004568] byt-rt5640 byt-rt5640: ASoC: CPU DAI baytrail-pcm-audio not registered”
[17:49] <SCHAAP137> hmm, interesting message
[17:50] <Ozymandias42> Maybe I should add that it’s a tablet. And yes I know there is a channel for Ubuntu on tablet’s but since I’m working with  the desktop image here I thought it could belong here as well
[17:50] <SCHAAP137> a tablet is quite different in terms of hardware, it might be more useful to ask there
[17:51] <Ozymandias42> that’s true but the procedure of adding modules to the kernel should be the same, shouldn’t it?
[17:51] <Ozymandias42> the thing I’m a little bit unsure atm is to know what to look for when searching for solutions to this kind of problem and how to apply them
[17:54] <Ozymandias42> I have to go. I should be back in about half an hour or so.

[18:00] <Pinkamena_D> How to restart unity from another terminal instance when the main one becomes frozen?
[18:01] <Pinkamena_D> or the command to restart X?
[18:02] <Pinkamena_D> cant look it up because main desktop is frozen and I dont want to hard reset and lose work
[18:02] <OerHeks> Pinkamena_D, not sure "sudo service lightdm restart" keeps your work alive
[18:03] <ianorlin> OerHeks, it doesn't
[18:04] <Pinkamena_D> I need some way in the future to launch a new unity. In the past I have had this issue randomly when resumming and if there happened to be a terminal window in view I could manually launch 'unity' from it and that would work ok
[18:04] <Pinkamena_D> otherwise I was screwed
[18:05] <Pinkamena_D> (launching from other tty would just not be able to find display)
[18:06] <collinanderson> btw, is there an eta on systemd by default? 15.04? 15.10?
[18:08] <zerowaitstate> collinanderson: I heard it was 16.04
[18:08] <Axel_> FGLRX won't work
[18:08] <collinanderson> darn. ok
[18:08] <Axel_> Ubuntu 14.04, tried:
[18:09] <collinanderson> anyone know about python3 by default? i suppose that might not even happen in 16.04
[18:09] <Axel_> 1°) using "proprietary drivers" graphical thingy
[18:09] <Axel_> (Installed both fglrx and fglrx-updates)
[18:09] <Axel_> (None works, I get the "safe graphics mode" dialog
[18:09] <Axel_> then I tried installing from the official website
[18:09] <Axel_> Same issue
[18:09] <Axel_> If that matters, I'm on a "switcheroo"-style laptop
[18:10] <Axel_> If you have any idea (or should I join #fglrx-something ?)
[18:14] <schoppenhauer> mäh ... I still have no clue how to track down my proplem ... often when I suspend to ram, the computer is restarting instead. not always, but often. and often when I suspend to disk, it is also restarting (but then at least I can restore the state)
[18:14] <schoppenhauer> it used to work.
[18:14] <imnichol> Does anyone have any experience with unencrypting a HDD that's been encrypted with whatever the default full disk encryption is?
[18:15] <EriC^^> imnichol: did you boot a live usb?
[18:15] <imnichol> I've got a new HDD and I'd like to pull the data off my old HDD using an external enclosure
[18:15] <imnichol> EriC^^, no.  I've got Ubuntu installed on the new HDD and I'd like to pull data from the old one
[18:16] <imnichol> I still know the FDE password
[18:16] <EriC^^> imnichol: type sudo parted -l
[18:17] <EriC^^> imnichol: paste it in paste.ubuntu.com please
[18:17] <Axel_> How can I help you debug my issue? Xorg.0.log shows only "no screens found"
[18:19] <bringonblink> hi all
[18:20] <bringonblink> got a quick question about steam
[18:20] <MonkeyDust> bringonblink  sure you're in the right channel?
[18:21] <bringonblink> err, i think so
[18:21] <bringonblink> basically im on ubuntu 14.04, but i just noticced my steam repo shows as precise, rather than trusty?
[18:21] <bringonblink> does that matter?
[18:21] <collinanderson> how do I determine what type of ram my computer has/supports?
[18:22] <imnichol> EriC^^, what are you looking for in particular?
[18:22] <imnichol> Sorry, just got the thing plugged in
[18:22] <bringonblink> collin, download cpu z
[18:22] <EriC^^> imnichol: which partitions are encrypted
[18:22] <bringonblink> youll get the info from there
[18:22] <bringonblink> http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html
[18:23] <collinanderson> bringonblink: i should say this is ubuntu-server :)
[18:23] <bringonblink> oh, not the support channel?
[18:23] <bringonblink> woops lol
[18:23] <EriC^^> bringonblink: he means he's using ubuntu-server
[18:24] <bringonblink> oh right my bae
[18:24] <bringonblink> bad
[18:24] <Dro__> hello, i have a strange problem: i can connect to my VPN using the command openvpn --config file.ovpn  but when i try to connect from the graphic mode i always get a "connection failed" error.. (i use the correct cert,key files and passwd)
[18:26] <imnichol> EriC^^, just sent it to ya
[18:28] <DavidBorjaM> English o Spanish?
[18:28] <EriC^^> the installation is on the 640gb partition?
[18:28] <EriC^^> imnichol: ^
[18:28] <imnichol> EriC^^, yes
[18:28] <EriC^^> DavidBorjaM: english
[18:28] <tvw>  I am using Unity on ubuntu, since I am more a terminal user than a gui-user. No I wonder what desktop environment is best for people who prefer to use a mouse and a gui interface?
[18:28] <imnichol> The one I'm trying to recover anyway
[18:28] <hosam> Hiii
[18:28] <EriC^^> !sp | DavidBorjaM for spanish

[18:32] <EriC^^> imnichol: yeah, type df -h to see if it's mounted
[18:32] <Pici> theubuntuzealot: #launchpad would be a more relevant place to ask.
[18:33] <imnichol> Hah, got it
[18:33] <theubuntuzealot> ill try that thanks

[18:40] <Guest17600> I just did the regular suggested package updates on 14.04 and now I've got no WiFi adapter.  Any ideas?

[18:44] <jfmcarreira> any ideas on how to find qt5 in pbuilder-dist env?
[18:44] <trism> jfmcarreira: which package and does it build outside the chroot?
[18:45] <jfmcarreira> trism: yeah

[18:47] <EriC^^> comment out any entries relating to the other encrypted installation and then restart
[18:48] <trism> jfmcarreira: probably just have the build-deps wrong, I see appmenu-qt5 build deps on qt5-default qtbase5-dev and qtbase5-private-dev, what does your debian/control look like?
[18:50] <chaffeet> I just applied the usual recommended updates to 14.04 and now I've got no WiFi adapter and can't connect to WiFi. Any ideas?

[18:51] <cluelessperson> Hey guys, for some reason, I'm getting a 404 page with apache2 when trying to download a font from my server
[18:51] <guite> Hi everyone, since a recent update (I’d say last friday) I’ve lost my display via nvidia. I need to switch to the intel graphic card with nvidia-prime to recover the display. my ubuntu version is 14.04 and the nvidia driver is the nvidia-340.
[18:51] <cluelessperson> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/POD/testing/futura_book.ttf
[18:51] <trism> jfmcarreira: yeah those libs don't help, you need the -dev packages, I would drop all of those libqt5* and build-dep on qt5-default, see if that works
[18:51] <jfmcarreira> trism: i need to include the dev packages right? :D
[18:51] <guite> I don’t even know where to find logs that would help diagnose
[18:52] <cluelessperson> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/POD/testing/futura_book.ttf<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[18:52] <cluelessperson> I mean the File is definitely there
[18:52] <cluelessperson> guite: which logs?
[18:52] <eraggo> guite: what graphics card in specially?
[18:52] <trism> jfmcarreira: likewise for the libav ones, you need libavformat-dev libavutil-dev etc
[18:53] <cluelessperson> guite: Nvidia Cards within Ubuntu are kinda annoying unfortunately, and lately, Nvidia driver updates have been very unstable for me in windows.  I would highly suggest moving to a previous stable version or looking into a beta.
[18:53] <cluelessperson> guite: nvidia being proprietary doesn't help ubuntu either.
[18:53] <jfmcarreira> trism: the only one correct is opencv since i didnt know the actually non deb package.
[18:53] <guite> eraggo: nvidia geforce 840m
[18:53] <SchrodingersScat> cluelessperson: I would check the permissions, make sure apache2 can read them
[18:53] <guite> cluelessperson: sad :'(
[18:53] <trism> jfmcarreira: yeah opencv looks fine, and debhelper and cmake
[18:54] <guite> cluelessperson: and I was looking for logs that tells why I don’t have display
[18:54] <guite> cluelessperson: I can’t understand what’s written in xorg.log
[18:55] <jfmcarreira> trism: what is the qt5 dev package?
[18:55] <cluelessperson> SchrodingersScat:   Found it, it's the -  not a _
[18:55] <cluelessperson> SchrodingersScat: I'm a moron. :(
[18:55] <jfmcarreira> trism: so where do i define the dependencies of my app?
[18:56] <SchrodingersScat> cluelessperson: no worries, happens to all
[18:56] <MonkeyDust> jfmcarreira  are you a developer?
[18:56] <usuario> hola
[18:56] <usuario> pene
[18:56] <usuario> Fucking you
[18:56] <eraggo> guite: have you tried installing drivers from edgers repo? (version 246.35)
[18:56] <usuario> mof
[18:56] <SchrodingersScat> !no | usuario
[18:56] <eraggo> 346.35*
[18:56] <guite> eraggo: yes, I had those when it starts failing
[18:56] <trism> jfmcarreira: the ${shlibs:Depends} handles it, it will figure it out with dpkg-shlibdeps automatically
[18:56] <guite> eraggo: not the 346
[18:56] <jfmcarreira> MonkeyDust: if developing an app means i am a developer so yes
[18:57] <guite> eraggo: the 340
[18:57] <trism> jfmcarreira: use qt5-default
[18:57] <guite> eraggo: should I try the 346 ?
[18:57] <MonkeyDust> jfmcarreira  there's also #ubuntu-app-devel
[18:57] <trism> jfmcarreira: it should probably get you everything you need
[18:58] <jfmcarreira> MonkeyDust: thanks. i am trying to learn how to package it
[18:58] <eraggo> guite: seems 346.35 is latest stable from nvidia. Yout should try to install 346 version
[18:58] <jfmcarreira> trism: any idea if it will bring qtdbus? i recall i had some problems with that part of qt
[18:58] <eraggo> guite: from edgers repo!
[19:00] <trism> jfmcarreira: it depends on qtbase5-dev which depends on libqt5dbus5 so I would guess yes
[19:03] <guite> eraggo: kthx I’ll try
[19:06] <imnichol> Hi EriC^^, the cryptsetup command completed successfullly afte ra restart
[19:07] <imnichol> EriC^^, my new question is.... where does it get mounted?
[19:08] <EriC^^> imnichol: you can mount it where ever you want
[19:08] <EriC^^> it's not mounted yet
[19:08] <imnichol> Ok
[19:08] <EriC^^> type sudo mount /dev/mapper/encrypted_volume /mountpoint
[19:08] <imnichol> Ohhhh
[19:08] <imnichol> Gotcha
[19:09] <imnichol> EriC^^, I get the error "mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'" again
[19:10] <EriC^^> imnichol: try sudo blkid

[19:12] <system0x01> Hi. I consider squash some of the bugs.
[19:13] <imnichol> EriC^^, I'm researching here: https://blmath.wordpress.com/2010/04/01/how-to-mount-a-logical-volume/
[19:13] <system0x01> Which tool will be helpful for that purpose  ?
[19:15] <i386-> hello, im under 14.04 trying to get an older person to access his ebank but i get this error:
[19:15] <imnichol> EriC^^, Ahah, that provided a solution.  I really appreciate the help getting me there
[19:15] <i386-> ./Start_eBanking_Login-Stick_Linux: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[19:16] <i386-> when i try to install i386 multiarch i get errors from unmet deps
[19:16] <bottazzini> i386-: install libgtk and u r good to go
[19:16] <EriC^^> imnichol: no problem
[19:16] <imnichol> EriC^^, oh whoops I spoke too soon... accidentally mounted my own ~ from my new drive
[19:16] <imnichol> hahah
[19:16] <imnichol> Gonna have to try that again....
[19:16] <bottazzini> i386-: use aptitute... it will help you with deps erros
[19:16] <jfmcarreira> trism: i managed to build and upload the pkg
[19:17] <jfmcarreira> trism: now i am having problems to add the repo in my machine

[19:17] <bfig> hello, I'm trying to repair my python install and I'm having trouble. I erased a file that was conflicting and now everything has blown up
[19:17] <EriC^^> imnichol: oh
[19:18] <bfig> is there a way to check through the package manager that all files should be where they are?
[19:18] <bfig> *are where they should be
[19:18] <reisio> bfig: kinda, why?
[19:18] <bottazzini> i386-: run this: sudo find / -name "libgtk-x11-2.0"
[19:18] <EriC^^> imnichol: did it work?
[19:18] <imnichol> EriC^^, still working on it
[19:19] <bottazzini> i386-: also, if not try reinstalling it... but now use aptitude
[19:19] <bfig> reisio: well, to start I'd like to know if I broke anything by removing said file
[19:19] <bfig> Ideally I'd like to have an idea of what I need to do to solve my problems without reinstalling
[19:19] <i386-> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.:(
[19:19] <reisio> bfig: what problems?
[19:19] <i386-> bottazzini: thats the thing, nothing is found related to libgtk-x11-2.0 :(
[19:20] <reisio> bfig: now you're getting to something worth saying
[19:20] <bottazzini> i386-: Aptitude will suggest you a lot of scenarios, so you will have to choose it wisely and carefully other wise you may fuck the system up
[19:20] <bfig> reisio: i'm trying to run openerp and getting a problem with jpeg decoder, so I need to instal libjpeg8-dev, right? so I'm installing it and the package manager says it is there
[19:20] <i386-> bottazzini: i havent seen any removal suggestion
[19:21] <bottazzini> i386-: what does it suggest?
[19:21] <reisio> bfig: I guess that depends on the problem
[19:21] <bfig> after that there is the python module thingy package manager(ish) that is setuptools/easy_install, and I think between both pkg managers they managed to fuck it up
[19:22] <reisio> well now you're talking about accessories to python rather than python itself
[19:22] <mumptai> hi
[19:22] <bfig> so right now I can't install the packages and at the same time I can't resolve my dependencies. I'd like to know which files are missing so I can take corrective action or at least know where the problem is
[19:22] <reisio> the language, the main interpreter, and all the other things, they're all separate
[19:22] <reisio> mumptai: heyo
[19:22] <i386-> bottazzini: nothing since the package doesnt exist for it and i have added the repos and updated
[19:22] <mumptai> where to go with a 14.04 broken by an update
[19:22] <mumptai> ?
[19:22] <bfig> first thing, I don't know if the problem is with something I installed through apt or through easy_install
[19:22] <trism> jfmcarreira: that is strange, I'm not sure what would cause that, you might ask in #launchpad
[19:23] <bfig> I know easy_install is not the most powerful tool for this kind of inquiries and I don't know the extent of the damage I did, so starting by making sure all apt installed packages are working would be great
[19:23] <Pici> bfig: did you use sudo with easy_install?
[19:24] <bottazzini> i386-: try running this: sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386
[19:24] <bfig> Pici: yep
[19:24] <AdamBrady> Hello
[19:24] <bottazzini> i386-:  and this sudo apt-get install ia32-libs libglib2.0-dev
[19:24] <Pici> bfig: You really shouldn't do that.  You shouldn't mix OS packages with pypi packages.
[19:25] <i386-> bottazzini: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10058612/
[19:25] <bfig> Pici: to be honest I'm a bit of a neophyte. I never really understood the full extent of what's happening with the package managers
[19:25] <OerHeks> ia32-libs? that is the old way, bottazzini
[19:25] <OerHeks> !info ia32-libs
[19:25] <novasonic> hi
[19:25] <novasonic> hello
[19:26] <bfig> ParseError: "decoder jpeg not available" while parsing /home/bruno/datamatic/dev/odoo/openerp/addons/base/base_demo.xml:32, near
[19:26] <reisio> novasonic: hi
[19:26] <bottazzini> i386-: oh i get it
[19:26] <i386-> and this
[19:26] <i386-> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10058639/
[19:26] <Pici> bfig: You're running two different package managers that are trying to put things in the same place.  It'll end up putting things into an inconsistant state.  If you really need to install something using easy_install (also, you really should use pip nowadays) you should setup an virtualenv or install it just for your user instead installing it with sudo.
[19:26] <bottazzini> i386-: sudo apt-get clean all
[19:27] <bottazzini> OerHeks: :| what is the new way then?
[19:27] <i386-> bottazzini: sudo apt-get clean all ran, nothing on the output
[19:27] <bottazzini> i386-: this is good, i guess
[19:27] <Boeby> Has anyone here a multi Screen (3) configuration ? need some help
[19:27] <i386-> oke
[19:28] <guite> eraggo: just for my personal information, how can you tell that the 346.35 driver is the latest stable
[19:28] <guite> ?
[19:28] <OerHeks> bottazzini, just add :i386 to the packagename, as ubuntu is multiarch standard. ia32-libs is depreciated.
[19:28] <bottazzini> i386-: try running now: sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386
[19:28] <bottazzini> OerHeks: ;)
[19:29] <Xano> I have a machine running on 10.04 which I am trying to upgrade. do-release-upgrade says it can't fetch any upgrades. What's the recommended upgrade process for a release this old?
[19:29] <i386-> bottazzini: same things as before or so it looks --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10058668/
[19:30] <Giwrgaras> anyone else having problems with the ubuntu terminal/
[19:30] <rsp> can I run a script somehow like this: zenity arguments | sshpass ssh-copy-id arguments
[19:30] <bottazzini> i386-: you have broken packages, you have to solve it first.. then just install the way i sent to you ... and it will work like a charm
[19:30] <daftykins> Xano: clean would be a far more sane use of time than messing around with dist upgrades.
[19:31] <bottazzini> i386-: So trist try: sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get autoclean
[19:31] <i386-> bottazzini: many thanks for your help, but how to start solving those "broken packages" apt-get -f install does nothing
[19:31] <i386-> oke
[19:31] <bottazzini> i386-: then sudo apt-get install clean
[19:31] <i386-> oke
[19:31] <bottazzini> i386-: then sudo apt-get autoremove
[19:31] <i386-> ok
[19:31] <i386-> ack
[19:31] <i386-> tx!
[19:32] <bottazzini> i386-: and may the force be with u lol
[19:32] <Alan_qwwe1> hello there. I just installed ubuntu, and I`m looking for a replacement to Unity. any recommendations? (please only from official repos)
[19:32] <bottazzini> Alan_qwwe1: gnome
[19:32] <Alan_qwwe1> bottazzini: 2 or 3
[19:33] <bottazzini> Alan_qwwe1: personally i am big fun of 2.... but 3 is already better than unity
[19:33] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: any desktop you like that is in the repos. your choice
[19:33] <bfig> Pici: how can I completely reinstall the jpeg decoder?
[19:33] <Alan_qwwe1> bottazzini: yeah, i loved gnome2
[19:33] <bottazzini> Alan_qwwe1: indeed!! it was perfect :)
[19:33] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: than look at mate ubuntu.
[19:33] <Xano> daftykins: How so?
[19:33] <daftykins> Xano: as in, backup + clean install
[19:34] <i386-> bottazzini: sorry to bother but: E: Unable to locate package clean
[19:34] <Xano> daftykins: Why would an upgrade be so problematic?
[19:34] <k1l> i386-: without install
[19:34] <i386-> ok
[19:35] <i386-> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 12 not upgraded.
[19:35] <i386-> that what autoremove tells me
[19:35] <daftykins> Xano: is this a server of 10.04 ? i'm saying it'd be more efficient to clean install 14.04 - given to get there you'd have to go to 12.04 first, which has 2 years left but there's not much point using today.
[19:35] <i386-> so from all that process seems like i have no broken packages
[19:35] <Alan_qwwe1> k1l: any ideas on how (or if) the `indicators` will display on another desktop?
[19:35] <k1l> Xano: if its 10.04 (see "lsb_release -d" for exact versionnumber) then you can do the LTS upgrade to 12.04 and then 14.04. just make sure the release-prompt is set tot LTS
[19:35] <bottazzini> i386-: maybe I passed to you the wrong command
[19:35] <i386-> but can't install the i386 libs
[19:36] <bottazzini> sudo apt-get clean
[19:36] <i386-> yes, but it does like if all is clean
[19:36] <i386-> no output
[19:36] <Xano> daftykins: It's an old server, yeah
[19:36] <i386-> and autoremove is also telling all is good
[19:36] <i386-> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 12 not upgraded.
[19:37] <bottazzini> i386-: if it does not work try this
[19:37] <bottazzini> sudo dpkg --configure -a
[19:37] <Alan_qwwe1> k1l: i mean, the icons that display on top-left corner of unity desktop... it seems they are an important functional part of ubuntu. i wonder if those icons will display in a gnome panel
[19:37] <OerHeks> i386-, try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade # and see if this resolves problems
[19:37] <Alan_qwwe1> top right that is
[19:38] <i386-> OerHeks: i did a dist-upgrade just yesterday but will try that again, thanks
[19:38] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: what icons? you mean the window buttons?
[19:38] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: ah, you mean the systray and indicators
[19:39] <Pici> bfig: apt-get install --reinstall packagename
[19:39] <Alan_qwwe1> k1l: yes
[19:39] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: see https://ubuntu-mate.org/about/

[19:42] <hje841> I have freed up some space on my only harddrive on a machine with another OS (Arch Linux) on it, and I want to install Ubuntu on it. After choosing the "Something Else" option at the partition selection and created a new partion at the free part. What do I do then?
[19:42] <daftykins> hje841: you need an ext4 / partition and a swap partition ideall
[19:42] <daftykins> y
[19:42] <MonkeyDust> hje841  "somrething else" lets you create your own partition
[19:42] <MonkeyDust> s
[19:43] <newinstall> Hello, I'm attempting to install a fewh image, but I don't see xfce in an apt-cache search
[19:43] <hje841> I have a swap partion already in place, but do I just select a random item on the list and hit 'Install'?
[19:43] <newinstall> Is there a repo I need to add?
[19:43] <newinstall> s/fewh/fresh
[19:44] <hellyeah> hey
[19:44] <daftykins> hje841: well you would have told it to use the partition you created as /, so then you can continue. maybe share a screenshot if you're worried
[19:44] <hellyeah> is there a software for hardware diagnostic in ubuntu?
[19:44] <Alan_qwwe1> of all the `flavors` of ubuntu (gnome, kubuntu, lubuntu, mate, etc), any ideas on which one is the most popular?
[19:44] <daftykins> hellyeah: like what specifically?
[19:45] <Alan_qwwe1> any of them is good enough for me, so i`d rather go for the most popular option (most tested, less bugs)
[19:45] <hellyeah> cd-rom
[19:45] <daftykins> Alan_qwwe1: popularity is irrelevant, lu and xu are for lower spec systems, kubuntu and ubuntu for higher spec - MATE for the old style desktop for those that prefer it
[19:45] <bottazzini> i386-: run : sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386
[19:46] <daftykins> hellyeah: in what way? can't read discs?
[19:46] <Alan_qwwe1> daftykins: in this case, the most stable
[19:46] <glogic> Alan_qwwe1: The differences are mostly in desktop environment...
[19:46] <hellyeah> hmm it is in trouble to read disc
[19:46] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: its your choice of which desktop you like. they share the same base system anyway
[19:46] <francesco_> hello (ciao)
[19:47] <daftykins> hellyeah: well perhaps if you can explain the full story we might be able to get somewhere, but no i don't know of a program that can work on why you can't read discs. all the features to investigate that are built in
[19:47] <bottazzini> francesco_: ciao amico...
[19:47] <hje841> daftykins, here's a screenshot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1919429/UbuntuInstall.jpg could I just hit 'Install' here? /dev/sda6 is what I just created
[19:48] <francesco_> di che cosa state parlando?
[19:48] <daftykins> hje841: yep looks ok
[19:48] <bottazzini> chi ?
[19:48] <Alan_qwwe1> k1l: yeah, but to tell the truth, pretty much any desktop provides me what I need, except unity, so, I don`t really care which one, i just want the most stable/compatible of them
[19:48] <MonkeyDust> Alan_qwwe1  if you don't like unity, simply don't use it
[19:49] <Alan_qwwe1> MonkeyDust: that`s the idea
[19:49] <MonkeyDust> Alan_qwwe1  install a different DE, logout, switch, login
[19:49] <i386-> bottazzini: still square one: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10058982/
[19:49] <glogic> Alan_qwwe1: you can use any Destkop environment with Ubuntu.
[19:49] <bfig> Pici: let's see how --reinstall goes...
[19:49] <glogic> Alan_qwwe1: And the same is true for any distribution of Linux...
[19:49] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: then decide what is most pretty for you. but we cant make a poll with all the 1700 user in here.
[19:49] <bottazzini> i386-:  Maybe OerHeks  can help you out with this broken package better than me
[19:50] <bottazzini> francesco_: incredibile... c'è italiano in tutti i luoghi
[19:50] <i386-> i have done this earlier
[19:50] <i386-> echo "deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring main restricted universe multiverse" >ia32-libs-raring.list
[19:50] <Alan_qwwe1> k1l: i heard lubuntu is quite popular. perhaps i should give lxde a try
[19:50] <daftykins> raring is EOL
[19:50] <bottazzini> i386-: try reverting the changes
[19:50] <daftykins> i386-: that command is a bad move
[19:50] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: just try it. gogogogogogogogo
[19:50] <OerHeks> err i386, what does uname -a say ?
[19:51] <OerHeks> i386 looks like you are on 10.04 lts?
[19:51] <i386-> OerHeks: Linux i 3.13.0-44-generic #73-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 16 00:22:43 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[19:51] <OerHeks> i386 oke you are on trusty
[19:51] <i386-> OerHeks: im confused with names and versions on ubuntu
[19:52] <i386-> is just a mess of names in my head
[19:52] <ObrienDave> i386-, try, cat /etc/issue
[19:52] <MonkeyDust> i386-  then use the version numbers
[19:52] <i386-> as said, i know is supposed to be 14.04
[19:52] <i386-> LTS
[19:52] <Alan_qwwe1> k1l: yeah, i`m gonna try lxde and after that mate, gnome3 and cinnamon.  i`m using kde on another distro and i`d even install plasma5 if it weren`t so buggy :)
[19:52] <i386-> cat /etc/issue
[19:52] <i386-> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[19:53] <MonkeyDust> Alan_qwwe1  that's great but no need to keep us informed of what you'll try next
[19:53] <daftykins> i386-: so yeah trying to feed raring v13.04 into your sources was extremely unwise
[19:53] <daftykins> !13.04
[19:53] <daftykins> wow, been dead a year now
[19:53] <rozica> mcphail: here?
[19:53] <bottazzini> !12.04LTS
[19:54] <bottazzini> !12.04
[19:54] <bottazzini> !6.04
[19:54] <k1l> there are bad howtos on the net to install the 32bit libs from raring etc to get software running that is not set up propperly
[19:54] <bottazzini> :(
[19:54] <i386-> daftykins: so what will be the wise way to go after this extremely unsafe move ?
[19:54] <daftykins> i386-: undoing it
[19:54] <MonkeyDust> bottazzini  use /msg ubottu    if you wnat to play with !factoids
[19:54] <i386-> i tried google before IRC to save you all time with dumbness
[19:55] <bottazzini> MonkeyDust: alright
[19:55] <i386-> but will rever that
[19:55] <hellyeah> daftykins:  what about checking hdd against bad sector is there any software for that?
[19:56] <daftykins> hellyeah: of course. "sudo apt-get install smartmontools pastebinit" then "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit"
[19:56] <hellyeah> sure
[19:56] <Alan_qwwe1> if there was a way to at least move the unity top bar out of there, disable the global menu, and customize the launcher a little more. but unity provides no such things. you`re forced to use it as it is.
[19:57] <MonkeyDust> Alan_qwwe1  that's true, it's because in time, ubuntu desktop and phone will converge
[19:58] <OerHeks> Alan_qwwe1, there is unity-tweak though
[19:58] <k1l> Alan_qwwe1: if you want a complete other desktop, just use another desktop. thats it. but you are way too offtopic. this is a technical support channel and your taste or opinion doesnt need technical help :)
[19:58] <MonkeyDust> Alan_qwwe1  thats why unity looks like a phone screen, so to say
[19:58] <hellyeah> daftykins:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10059067/
[19:58] <PSGroup11> I have Ubuntu 13.04 running on C Shell. The command, source <csh file> <argument>, takes the <argument> as an empty string. Is this a bug? If yes, where is it documented please?
[19:58] <Alan_qwwe1> MonkeyDust: forcing a phone interface on desktop users seems the reason why windows 8 failed
[19:58] <hellyeah> daftykins:  what can you say?
[19:58] <k1l> !ot | Alan_qwwe1
[19:58] <daftykins> hellyeah: that disk is toast, completely dead and needs replacing
[19:59] <MonkeyDust> Alan_qwwe1  nobody forces you to use it, now take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:59] <hellyeah> humm
[19:59] <hellyeah> because of hot temprature on computer?
[19:59] <nathanleclaire> Is it possible to forward private key file over SSH?
[20:00] <nathanleclaire> I want to scp user@host:/foo to user@host2:/bar
[20:00] <i386-> daftykins: raring list removed, apt-get update ran, still the same list of broken packages that doesnt resolve with apt-get clean and apt-get autoremove
[20:00] <daftykins> hellyeah: no because of lines 64, 79 and 90. bad sectors.
[20:00] <nathanleclaire> But I have keys individually for them on the local machine
[20:00] <k1l> i386-: please pastbini the whole output
[20:00] <nathanleclaire> Usually SSH commands for them are invoked using -i flag
[20:00] <i386-> i will do again
[20:00] <i386-> one sec
[20:01] <i386-> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10058982/
[20:01] <hellyeah> humm
[20:01] <hellyeah> so how can i execute ubuntu here then?
[20:02] <k1l> i386-: did you add the 32bit repos as well?
[20:02] <daftykins> hellyeah: 'execute ubuntu' ?
[20:02] <hellyeah> i mean i am using ubuntu on that disk
[20:02] <hellyeah> without any problems
[20:03] <daftykins> hellyeah: it's dead. if you have any data, backup and buy a new one
[20:03] <i386-> i did but seems i confused names and versions and im lost as on how to go to not be called dumb by clever people
[20:03] <daftykins> hellyeah: trust me, it will have many problems if you keep trying to use that
[20:03] <Fischer> hello all. on a fresh install my gtx 750 isnt showing up and instead i get "VESA: BIOS-P/N@N10282" any ideas what happened?
[20:03] <hellyeah> gotcha
[20:03] <PSGroup11> I have Ubuntu 13.04 running on C Shell. The command, source <csh file> <argument>, takes the <argument> as an empty string. Is this a bug? If yes, where is it documented please?
[20:03] <rozica> Hello admins and super users :)
[20:03] <k1l> i386-: hmm, seems like you made a mess of the package system in following bad advices.
[20:03] <Tzunamii> hellyeah: If you have anything important on that drive, make sure to back it up now rather than later
[20:04] <rozica> My computer just won't poweroff or reboot.
[20:04] <hellyeah> is it totally dead?
[20:04] <MonkeyDust> PSGroup11  is "13.04" a typo?
[20:04] <k1l> PSGroup11: upgrade t 13.10 and 14.04 asap. your system is heavyly vulnerable
[20:04] <daftykins> hellyeah: yes, i would throw it in the bin if it weren't in warranty
[20:05] <hellyeah> yes it is not in warranty okey thanks
[20:05] <Tzunamii> hellyeah: Having bad sectors is a sign of a unhealthy HDD that will at one point start to fail on a escalating scale so back your shit up now
[20:05] <daftykins> !language | Tzunamii
[20:05] <Tzunamii> My apologies
[20:05] <rozica> My laptop just won't poweroff. Even if I type sudo poweroff or anything it won't completely power off and screen is still on. Here is a picture taken with my phone http://i.imgur.com/KQ4nHeZ.jpg Can someone please help me out. I'm trying to find a solution for over a week now and I've googled but nothing seems to be working for me.
[20:06] <Fischer> on a fresh install my gtx 750 isnt showing up and instead i get "VESA: BIOS-P/N@N10282" any ideas what happened?
[20:06] <i386-> k1l: but the system rans a dist-upgrade
[20:06] <i386-> k1l: canonical partners is enables, will that bring the 32bit repos?
[20:06] <daftykins> Fischer: install an nvidia proprietary driver, is it a 750 Ti?
[20:06] <k1l> i386-: why you need that 32bit package?
[20:07] <Fischer> just the regular 750, but my cpu doesnt even have onboard graphics. its tripping me out. when i check for additional drivers nothing shows up
[20:07] <i386-> is the computer of an elderly and he needs to do ebanking.. the application requires so
[20:07] <k1l> i386-: ubuntu is multiarch. you need your software to be 2015 ready and use multiarch and not be like 1995 and go for 32bit only
[20:07] <i386-> he uses ubuntu but needed a new machine
[20:07] <i386-> hence 14.04
[20:07] <daftykins> Fischer: ok i have to leave right now so can't do any due diligence to check for sure, but try "sudo apt-get install nvidia-331"
[20:07] <Fischer> thanks
[20:08] <i386-> k1l: ok, so if theres no new version for his bank seems we will have to downgrade
[20:09] <i386-> or, k1l is there some sort of 32bit arch emulator out there?
[20:09] <i386-> migth this be another stupid question for the smartazzez
[20:09] <k1l> i386-: no need to get rude.
[20:10] <i386-> but what can you tell someone who requires visual aid that can't go to his ebank
[20:10] <i386-> i never got rude but was treated as dumb and i suggest to change that kind of tone
[20:10] <i386-> that gpt me ironical
[20:11] <k1l> i386-: i dont know that banking software and what it needs to run on a 64bit ubuntu
[20:11] <k1l> usually ubuntu with multiarch handles that very well
[20:13] <rozica> Ah, why oh why does anyone don't have a clue why my acer v3-112p won't completely poweroff or reboot :( http://i.imgur.com/KQ4nHeZ.jpg <- here is the photo showing how it hangs while I try to power off. Nothing seems to be working. Even by changing kernel parameters :/ Any advance users here? This is based on 14.04 LTS
[20:13] <i386-> sure, is not you at all who should be addressed, i appreciate your help.. is just funny to see that advancing for visual aids on 14.04 lts on new hardware blocks the usefull ness of old school ebanking
[20:13] <k1l> i386-: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiArch, that mentions ia32-libs-multiarch
[20:14] <k1l> i386-: blame the old ebanking stuff.
[20:14] <Jeroen1> Hi, can someone help me. I'm running a website on my ubuntu server. Now the database is offline. What could I do to restart it? (I'm using also nginx but don't know how to find what's going wrong. I'm sure the database is the problem).
[20:14] <K4k> As I understand it, the number of old kernels that are retained by the system is determined by /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal. The comments on the script say no more than 3 kernels will usually be saved but I have systems that have been keeping upwards of 10 which is leading to a full /boot partition. How is the postinst.d script being called and when?
[20:15] <i386-> k1l: i will try via wine and the .exe app
[20:15] <i386-> thanks and good night
[20:16] <k1l> i386-: good luck
[20:16] <MonkeyDust> Jeroen1  there's also #ubuntu-server
[20:16] <pavlos> rozica, is it possible to re-install ubuntu?
[20:17] <rozica> pavlos: actually it's elementary os that is based on Ubuntu 14.04 I did tried to reinstall it. Also I tried this on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS standalone and Xubuntu 14.04 and it didn't reboot / poweroff
[20:18] <OerHeks> rozica, elementary has its own issues
[20:19] <MonkeyDust> rozica  maybe the elementaryos people changed something we don't know, better ask them
[20:19] <pavlos> rozica, I looked online, did not see any issues with the acer
[20:20] <pavlos> rozica, I mean you could boot off a live usb and then power down. does it hang?
[20:20] <rozica> pavlos: yes, with Ubuntu 14.04, Xubuntu 14.04 and Elementary Freya
[20:21] <rozica> tried all three of them fresh installs
[20:21] <OerHeks> sounds like a bios ACPI setting issue.
[20:21] <pavlos> rozica, so it powers down with live images but wont if you install an image.
[20:22] <rozica> pavlos: no. It didn't power down even with lie images...
[20:23] <rozica> pavlos: the moment it installed and said it installed successfully and I tried to reboot it hanged.
[20:25] <pavlos> rozica, can you set BIOS to UEFI instead of legacy and try

[20:58] <ianorlin> dsfrank, what in your tty is not working?
[20:58] <dsfrank> ps aux shows they are running but when i switch to one i get blank screen don't know what happens
[20:59] <dsfrank> its a fresh install and was working i think it don't works after reboot with nativ graphics driver
[20:59] <dsfrank> but i need that i have a GFORCE GX 980 with 3 Monitors connected
[21:01] <Dorothy> I have a question about installing Ubuntu on an already partitioned drive. When I go to install after setting up the appropriate partitions for Ubuntu I get the message that it needs to unmount an existing partition in order to proceed. Will unmounting that partition delete the information stored there?
[21:02] <dsfrank> trying sudo sed -i -e 's/#GRUB_TERMINAL/GRUB_TERMINAL/g' /etc/default/grub
[21:04] <michi__> anyone got a idea, where to get refurbished thinkpads from?
[21:04] <gds2> how do i change my nickname?

[21:06] <dsfrank> ok
[21:06] <dsfrank> that wasn't a solution
[21:06] <dsfrank> then lightdm shows no login screen anymore but tty working
[21:06] <dsfrank> :D
[21:07] <bodhi11> what is stored in my Gnome2 Key Storage?
[21:12] <caonicaldroid> how can i optimizxe the speed of my pc
[21:14] <k1l> caonicaldroid: didnt we answer that just yesterday?
[21:15] <caonicaldroid> no not realy
[21:15] <caonicaldroid> relly*
[21:15] <caonicaldroid> really*
[21:15] <k1l> !details | caonicaldroid
[21:17] <caonicaldroid> Ubuntu is often sluggish and laggy
[21:21] <SupaYoshi> How do I check if I have a certain port only open to a specific IP? with iptables --list?
[21:25] <gabeio> is there a better way to run a certain service like mongo under a different user aside from editing it's /etc/init.d file?
[21:30] <skinofstars> so yeah, i was thinking of doing `sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local`, any reason i shouldn't?
[21:32] <daftykins> skinofstars: pretty sure that's a very bad shotgun move
[21:33] <skinofstars> daftykins: yep, looks like it to me too.
[21:33] <daftykins> huzzah, potential crisis averted ;)
[21:34] <tim> test
[21:34] <daftykins> tim: don't use this channel for that
[21:35] <tim> daftykins: I was checking to see what my nick was. it didn't show it in my client.
[21:35] <daftykins> use #test in future then, ta
[21:35] <tim> I suppose i could have done a /nick, but I was being lazy
[21:36] <skinofstars> ok, i need to be able to get my current user to be able to write to /usr/local, and i'd rather not keep hitting sudo. any suggestions?
[21:37] <schoppenhauer> is it possible to remove items from the main menu in kubuntu?
[21:37] <celexi> you can do that with permissions skinofstars
[21:37] <gabeio> is there any nice way to give a program the ability to use a usb in the /media folder without giving it root privileges?
[21:38] <schoppenhauer> specifically "suspend"
[21:38] <celexi> add the local folder to a group that the user is in
[21:38] <skinofstars> celexi: how do you mean?
[21:38] <schoppenhauer> (NOT hibernate, I want hibernation, not suspend)
[21:38] <celexi> and make that group be able to read/write
[21:38] <skinofstars> celexi: ahh, can a folder be in multiple groups?
[21:39] <schoppenhauer> (and I want to prevent myself from accidentally trying to suspend, which does not work)
[21:40] <celexi> skinofstars what is your filesystem?
[21:40] <skinofstars> ext4 maybe?
[21:41] <skinofstars> ubuntu cloud
[21:42] <celexi> http://www.linuxcommand.org/man_pages/getfacl1.html http://linuxcommand.org/man_pages/setfacl1.html
[21:42] <skinofstars> celexi: cool, thanks
[21:43] <dingus1> !sbackup
[21:43] <celexi> also some documentation in https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/ch-acls.html skinofstars
[21:44] <schoppenhauer> there is an option to edit the menu entries, but it somehow does not show the items for leaving
[21:44] <skinofstars> celexi: ahh, acl isn't on a default install
[21:44] <Dorothy> I have a question about installing Ubuntu, partitioned drives and "unmounting".
[21:45] <TechChristoph> just ask
[21:45] <Dorothy>  I have 3 partitions - 1 for music & pictures, 1 for gaming and 1 for my operating system. When I go to install Ubuntu after setting up the appropriate partitions within the partition for the operating system, I get the message that it needs to unmount an existing partition (my gaming partition) in order to proceed. Will unmounting that partition delete the information stored there?
[21:45] <celexi> thought it would be, at least it is on mine, apparently not in ubuntu cloud
[21:45] <theadmin> Dorothy: No
[21:45] <theadmin> Dorothy: "unmount" in Linux = "safely remove" in Windows. It just blocks access to the drive, this is necessary during install
[21:45] <skinofstars> celexi: yeah, it is on my desktop too
[21:45] <theadmin> Dorothy: You'll be able to remount it when it's done
[21:46] <Dorothy> okay awesome.
[21:46] <Dorothy> Thank you!
[21:53] <Nedal> Hi, I can t install Packet Tracer on Ubuntu 14.04. I don t know if it s a OS problem or I just don t know how to do this. If any one can help, I ll be thankful ( or tell me where else can I ask )
[21:54] <ejuan> Nedal, i found it best just to install wine and then install the windows version of packet tracer inside of wine
[21:55] <ejuan> I had issues with the IOS command line not working properly in the native linux version of packet tracer
[21:55] <Nedal> ejuan, even with wine, it doesn t work. I think I have to install a .bin file witch I can t find on internet
[21:55] <ejuan> wat
[21:55] <ejuan> what version of packet tracer?
[21:56] <dingus1> !cloning
[21:58] <Nedal> ejuan, 5
[21:59] <ejuan> Oh I'm using packet tracer 6.0.1
[22:00] <Nedal> ejuan, it will be Ok. How can I install it ?
[22:04] <ejuan> Nedal, what files do you have?
[22:04] <Nedal> none
[22:04] <ejuan> ..so go torrent packet tracer 6
[22:04] <ejuan> or apt-get install gns3
[22:05] <AirForce590> hi
[22:05] <k1l> go to cisco page and get it there
[22:05] <in_deep_thought> any help getting to the grub boot menu? I am hitting the left shift key furiously while booting and holding down the right one, then sometimes I switch it up
[22:06] <in_deep_thought> everyone says its shift. http://askubuntu.com/questions/172319/how-can-i-start-in-safe-mode but shift doesn’t seem to do anything
[22:06] <k1l> in_deep_thought: just hold down left shift.
[22:06] <in_deep_thought> I can however press F12 and that works to get into the other menu. so the keyboard is working
[22:06] <AirForce590> So, I just installed ubuntu on my main system. I installed it on the ssd, and the hdd is showing up in the taskbar, but not opening when I click on it. It is formatted with ntfs and I want to keep my data. What gives?
[22:06] <in_deep_thought> k1l: shift is not working for some reason
[22:07] <k1l> in_deep_thought: try esc key
[22:07] <AirForce590> anyone?
[22:07] <daftykins> AirForce590: which Windows?
[22:08] <in_deep_thought> k1l: right when I turn it on?
[22:08] <AirForce590> what do you mean daftykins
[22:08] <daftykins> AirForce590: which Windows version was the NTFS volume created with?
[22:08] <AirForce590> 8.1
[22:08] <k1l> AirForce590: new windows got "fast reboot" option which prevents other OS from mounting it
[22:08] <SupaYoshi> anyone know something cool to do wiht ma vps?
[22:08] <AirForce590> CRAP
[22:08] <k1l> in_deep_thought: hold it. not presssing it trillion times
[22:08] <daftykins> AirForce590: is it an OS drive of Windows, or just a storage volume?
[22:08] <AirForce590> storage volume
[22:08] <Nedal> ejuan, I did that. what next ?
[22:08] <k1l> !ot | SupaYoshi they might answer that
[22:08] <OerHeks> AirForce590, restricted extras gives the ntfs-3g package to read/write to ntfs
[22:09] <AirForce590> I had windows on the ssd
[22:09] <AirForce590> and I already installed nfts-3g
[22:09] <daftykins> AirForce590: alright, open the terminal then run this - "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" now run "sudo parted -l | pastebinit"
[22:09] <k1l> AirForce590: go to the windows settings and disable that fast reboot thingy
[22:09] <AirForce590> trying
[22:09] <daftykins> you don't need extra packages to mount NTFS :P
[22:09] <AirForce590> k1l: windows is gone
[22:09] <AirForce590> formatted over
[22:10] <in_deep_thought> k1l: actually that did something! by holding left shift I got to a blank black screen. it started loggin all of my shifts as [^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^
[22:10] <daftykins> AirForce590: please run the above, i have to be out the door in 10 minutes :)
[22:10] <AirForce590> ok
[22:10] <in_deep_thought> but when I let go it just tried to boot as normal and froze
[22:10] <k1l> oh well. then try to mount it manually and see what error
[22:11] <Nedal> ejuan, still here ?
[22:11] <AirForce590> daftykins: sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[22:11] <k1l> in_deep_thought: than its already to late when you press it
[22:11] <AirForce590> whoops

[22:11] <buck1> I keep getting this error
[22:12] <k1l> buck1: run a "sudo apt-get update" first
[22:12] <buck1> ... that's what's making the error
[22:12] <daftykins> AirForce590: try this: "sudo mkdir /media/disk" then "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /media/disk" and if you see errors, pastebin them via http://paste.ubuntu.com
[22:13] <k1l> buck1: well no. you seem to install something. please run a update first
[22:13] <in_deep_thought> nooo. stupid purple screen. Ok if it freezes on the purple startup screen, does there mean that there may be problems to deep fo even the grub menu to load?
[22:13] <ejuan> Nedal, what files did you get?  assuming the install file is "packet_tracer_linux_installer" you just cd to the directory where the installer is  and do ./packet_tracer_linux_installer
[22:13] <k1l> in_deep_thought: on purple screen its already too late.
[22:13] <buck1> k1l: apt-get update; W: Failed to fetch http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/ubuntu/dists/trusty-security/restricted/binary-amd64/Packages  500  Internal Server Error [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[22:13] <buck1> same thing
[22:14] <k1l> buck1: wait, that is kernel.org
[22:14] <buck1> it's true that that url is down
[22:14] <n-st> is there any file manager that won't freeze when opening a directory with ~ 1300 files?
[22:14] <skinofstars> celexi: did you see the note at the top of this page? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissionsACLs
[22:14] <k1l> buck1: that is a 3rd party repo you added. talk to kernel.org :)
[22:14] <buck1> it's a mirror that the ubuntu tool helped me pick
[22:14] <buck1> anyhow i'll change the mirror
[22:14] <AirForce5901> yo
[22:14] <AirForce5901> back
[22:14] <k1l> buck1: yes, take another mirror
[22:14] <AirForce5901> What should I do daftykins
[22:15] <daftykins> AirForce5901: see above where i replied last.
[22:15] <AirForce5901> sry I got unvoiced
[22:15] <in_deep_thought> k1l: well I begin pressing it before I even start the computer, so I can’t possibly press it any earlier. Therefore I must conclude that the shift key isn’t working for its intended purpose
[22:15] <AirForce5901> daftykins: plz rechat it, as I left
[22:15] <daftykins> AirForce590: try this: "sudo mkdir /media/disk" then "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /media/disk" and if you see errors, pastebin them via http://paste.ubuntu.com
[22:15] <buck1> k1l: http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/ubuntu/dists/trusty-security/restricted/binary-amd64/ Packages.bz2 and Packages.gz exist, just not Packages
[22:15] <k1l> in_deep_thought: you can try esc.
[22:15] <buck1> weird.
[22:15] <ejuan> Nedal, you may need to set the execute permission if its not already set for you it would be "chmod +x ./packet_tracer_linux_installer"
[22:16] <haxor> !CUNT
[22:16] <haxor> !CUNTFAGGIT
[22:16] <ejuan> !hello
[22:16] <AirForce5901> daftykins: http://pastebin.com/TjAD45bA
[22:16] <n-st> in_deep_thought: your bios might filter the shift key because it think it's stuck
[22:16] <in_deep_thought> escape leads me to the same [^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^[^ thing. F12 works however
[22:16] <celexi> skinofstars i did not see that
[22:16] <SupaYoshi> !out
[22:16] <SupaYoshi> !ot
[22:16] <daftykins> AirForce5901: do you have a Windows disc of any version to hand?
[22:17] <AirForce5901> yes
[22:17] <AirForce5901> just an instll disc
[22:17] <in_deep_thought> k1l works in that it goes to the menu screen
[22:17] <AirForce5901> daftykins: what should I do
[22:18] <daftykins> AirForce5901: boot it, hit shift+F6 i think it is after boot, then run a chkdsk on the windows volume. they'll help you over in ##windows
[22:18] <AirForce5901> ok
[22:18] <AirForce5901> is that all
[22:18] <daftykins> yep then try in ubuntu again
[22:18] <AirForce5901> k
[22:18] <buck1> where did haxor go? :)
[22:19] <Nedal> ejuan, there is no such a file or directory. I m in Downloads directory

[22:23] <kaste> hello, I restarted after an update and I was greeted by a lightdm crash and a subsequent message, that I am now running in low graphics mode
[22:23] <ejuan> Nedal, just type this exactly without the quotes and then paste the link into here "ls -l |pastebinit"
[22:23] <kaste> loggin in consequently doesn't work and I see libnvidia segfaults in the syslog
[22:23] <andrei> hello
[22:24] <kaste> I then saw that some kernel headers where held back and figured I would try my luck since that would trigger a rebuild of the nvidia kernel module however that also fails
[22:24] <kaste> it then spews a message about a log being written to some location under /var/lib/dkms/nvid* but it doesn't exist
[22:24] <kaste> is this a known issue and how do I fix it?
[22:25] <kaste> if not is there some way to fall back onto the intel graphics card (I unfortunately have an nvidia prime system)
[22:26] <Nedal> ejuan, chmod: cannot access ‘./packet_tracer_linux_installer’: No such file or directory
[22:26] <landolakes> I am trying to download a package for phantomjs out of a PPA on launchpad. I am looking for the PPA links/address on the page, and cannot for the life of me find them. addr here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/phantomjs , the help page (https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/InstallingSoftware) says to look for (Adding this PPA to your system) however this text does not occur in the page
[22:28] <landolakes> does anyone know where the link exists or how to interpret it? normally I get the PPA addresses off of google searches, but only found it directly on the site this time. is the site broke?
[22:30] <skweek> so I have an ftp server running and I don't want to have it running anymore?
[22:30] <k1l> landolakes: that is not a ppa
[22:30] <k1l> skweek: uninstall it or stop it?
[22:30] <noobix> skweek kill -9
[22:31] <landolakes> ... then what am I looking at ?
[22:31] <skweek> well I don't want to uninstall it and I stopped it yesterday but its back up today
[22:31] <noobix> kill ir
[22:31] <noobix> killall -9 ftpd
[22:32] <k1l> !info phantomjs
[22:32] <k1l> landolakes: that version is in the repos
[22:32] <landolakes> so I can just apt-get it?
[22:32] <k1l> landolakes: yes. ubuntu repos should always be the first way
[22:32] <landolakes> ah, great
[22:33] <landolakes> thanks kll, thought in the past I installed it via PPA and this was confusing the living shit out me.
[22:35] <zerowaitstate> skweek: update-rc.d
[22:35] <zerowaitstate> skweek: I suspect your ftp server is set up to start on boot
[22:35] <k1l> skweek: what ftp and what ubuntu?
[22:35] <DarkAceZ> why can't I view /proc/ under root?
[22:36] <zerowaitstate> DarkAceZ: are you in a container?
[22:36] <noobix> rm -rf `which ftpd`
[22:36] <k1l> noobix: stop that
[22:36] <DarkAceZ> zerowaitstate: I'm a bit of a newbie, you'll have to bear with me. what's a container?
[22:37] <zerowaitstate> DarkAceZ: is this a computer on your desk, or is it a hosted server somewhere?
[22:37] <k1l> DarkAceZ: what ubuntu and system is that?
[22:37] <DarkAceZ> oh, it's a computer on my desk :P
[22:37] <DarkAceZ> ( System: Linux 3.13.0-45-generic on Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4800MQ CPU @ 2.70GHz )( Bogomips: 43103.68 )( Memory: total: 11974.7 MB used: 6981.0 MB [||||||||||] )( Disks: total: 1837.9 GB used: 1564.1 GB [||||||||||] )( Uptime: 4h 45min 38s )( Load avg: 1.13 0.98 0.74 )( Vpenis: 678.4 cm )( wlan0: Rx: 908.6 MB [961 B/s] Tx: 64.5 MB [613 B/s] )

[22:37] <zerowaitstate> DarkAceZ: you mean you can't ls?
[22:37] <DarkAceZ> sudo su, then ls /proc works
[22:37] <noobix> vpenis?
[22:38] <DarkAceZ> but my interfaced file browsers won't list it if I've started it under root
[22:39] <skweek> k1l, pure-ftpd ubuntu 14.10?
[22:39] <zerowaitstate> DarkAceZ: are you sure you are under root, or are you under an account with sudo privileges?
[22:39] <zerowaitstate> DarkAceZ: they are not the same thing
[22:40] <k1l> !upstart
[22:40] <DarkAceZ> gksu nautilus/sudo caja
[22:40] <DarkAceZ> I guess that's root privileges...
[22:40] <DarkAceZ> I am able to browse to /proc/ WITHOUT root privileges, I should mention
[22:40] <k1l> skweek: if you dont want it to start edit the upstart script for that service
[22:41] <zwischenzug> hello, i am running 14.04, and have had weird warning from curl for a while now.  curl: /usr/local/lib/libldap_r-2.4.so.2: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4) curl: /usr/local/lib/liblber-2.4.so.2: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4)
[22:41] <k1l> DarkAceZ: what program exactly? what command exactly?
[22:41] <DarkAceZ> gksu nautilus/sudo caja
[22:41] <k1l> DarkAceZ: using sudo with GUI is known to break things
[22:41] <DarkAceZ> well, it does have root privileges
[22:41] <zwischenzug> i've seen, http://serverfault.com/questions/534609/usr-local-lib-libldap-r-2-4-so-2-no-version-information-available-required-by, and tried removing the file, but it does not fix the issue
[22:41] <DarkAceZ> I can modify other files that only root owns
[22:41] <Nedal> Hi, I can t install Packet Tracer on Ubuntu 14.04. I don t know if it s a OS problem or I just don t know how to do this. If any one can help, I ll be thankful ( or tell me where else can I ask )
[22:42] <DarkAceZ> but /proc/ never stops loading
[22:42] <DarkAceZ> no errors
[22:42] <k1l> DarkAceZ: its not that easy. if you say "well it does have root rights" then i say "well its know to not work that way"
[22:42] <bekks> Nedal: So which error messages do you get?
[22:42] <zerowaitstate> DarkAceZ: what does this say: "ls -l / | grep proc"
[22:42] <DarkAceZ> zerowaitstate: dr-xr-xr-x 351 root root     0 Feb  4 12:51 proc
[22:43] <zerowaitstate> DarkAceZ: what error do you get when you try to ls /proc as a regular user?
[22:43] <DarkAceZ> ls works fine
[22:43] <DarkAceZ> whether root or not
[22:43] <DarkAceZ> but the file browsers can't load it while root
[22:44] <k1l> DarkAceZ: stop making everything with root
[22:44] <zerowaitstate> ah, so it's a file browser issue
[22:44] <Nedal> when I install it with apt-get install gns3, and the installation is done but when I do the command chmod +x ./packet_tracer_linux_installer they say "not such a file or directory"
[22:44] <DarkAceZ> quite possibly
[22:44] <Nedal> bekks, when I install it with apt-get install gns3, and the installation is done but when I do the command chmod +x ./packet_tracer_linux_installer they say "not such a file or directory"
[22:45] <ment0s> Hello
[22:45] <DarkAceZ> k1l: certain directories in /proc/ can only be viewed by root, which is why I'd like to browse /proc/ with root
[22:45] <DarkAceZ> otherwise I have to browse on a non-root program and enter the location I want to see manually on the root browser
[22:45] <DarkAceZ> just inconvenient, but if no one knows why this is, I guess I'll stick with it
[22:45] <k1l> DarkAceZ: and i told you already that sudo is not meant to work propperly with all GUI programs. so just blindly putting a  sudo in front of commands will not help you
[22:45] <DarkAceZ> I've hit nothing with Google
[22:46] <ment0s> Could someone recommend a way to achieve history auto complete behavior like in fish but in standard shell ?
[22:46] <zerowaitstate> DarkAceZ: did you do gksu or gksudo?
[22:46] <bmccoy11> Can someone help me mod a BIOS?
[22:47] <k1l> bmccoy11: bios is out of the scope of this channel. you could ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or another channel that is bios related
[22:47] <bmccoy11> Alrighty then.
[22:48] <Tg1> hi
[22:49] <Nedal> bekks, ?? ejuan ?? still here ?
[22:49] <bekks> Nedal: So thta file does not exist in your current directory.
[22:49] <bekks> Nedal: Did you check with "ls"?
[22:50] <gabb0> Hi. 14.04 server.  I want to install the tor proxy part of tor on the server.  Why? I have several PCs on my local LAN I would like to point the browser to said proxy instead of installing tor on each machine.  My search terms are failing me...what am I looking for exactly with a search term?
[22:50] <Nedal> bekks, yes, I did even with ls -h .. doesn t exist
[22:50] <ejuan> Nedal, what is the exact name of the file you downloaded?
[22:51] <Nedal> ejuan, I did what you told me to do and do the command 'sudo apt-get install gns3'
[22:51] <Nedal> ejuan, when the installation was finished I checked the Downloads directory and there was nothing new in it !
[22:51] <ejuan> oh well then
[22:53] <bekks> Nedal: So where did you download it to?
[22:56] <Nedal> bekks, If it s not in the Downloads directory so it will be (normally) in the Home directory, but even there I can t find it
[22:56] <bekks> Nedal: Why do you assume it to be in the Hoime directory? Where did you download it to?
[22:57] <gabb0> copy the URL location of file you are trying to download, open a terminal and type wget(space) and paste the URL there...then the download will go that directory in terminal
[22:57] <Nedal> I ve downloaded it in Home directory, I just figured it out. But even there, I can t find the file
[22:58] <ejuan> i dont think Nedal downloaded anything. he installed gns3 which is similar to packet tracer.
[22:58] <bekks> ejuan: gns3 isnt even close to packet tracer ;) I do know both software products.
[22:58] <bekks> Nedal: So how did you download it, exactly?
[22:58] <OerHeks> Nedal 'sudo apt-get install gns3' does not download to your home, it installs directly
[22:59] <bekks> And gns3 doesnt install PAcket Trace as well.
[22:59] <ejuan> bekks, ive never used gns3 but it will accomplish the same task as packet tracer
[22:59] <bekks> Packet Tracer is a Cisco 3rd party product not available in the Ubuntu repos.
[22:59] <bekks> ejuan: It will not.
[22:59] <ejuan> if hes just looking to learn about cisco ios it will
[23:00] <Nedal> ejuan, but i don t want a similar! I m looking for Packet Tracer exactly !
[23:00] <bekks> ejuan: Only if he manages to get a Cisco IOS image legally.
[23:00] <bekks> GNS3 does not ship any IOS images.
[23:00] <Nedal> bekks, I did the sudo apt-get install gns3 command
[23:00] <gabb0> no offense, but if downloading eludes you, you sure you wanna dabble with packet tracing?
[23:00] <ejuan> well it didnt seem like he was going to get cisco packet tracer legally so whats it matter
[23:00] <bekks> Nedal: Which will not install Packet Tracer.
[23:01] <Nedal> bekks, so what should I do ?
[23:01] <bekks> ejuan: As a matter of fact, I'll not support breaking licensing agreements.
[23:01] <ejuan> i understand that
[23:01] <bekks> Nedal: Obtain the Packet Tracer from Cisco, legally.
[23:01] <ejuan> issue solved
[23:01] <Nedal> bekks, how ?
[23:02] <bekks> Nedal: By contacting your Cisco sales representative.
[23:03] <ejuan> Nedal, what are you trying to do with packet tracer?
[23:03] <ejuan> is it something that could be done with wireshark?
[23:05] <Nedal> bekks, it s a school project.  I don t know what a Cisco sales representative means ! where or how can I contact him ?
[23:05] <OerHeks> you 'need' ia32-libs  lolz https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/thread/74443
[23:05] <gabb0> LOL
[23:05] <bekks> Nedal: Contact your teacher and ask him.
[23:07] <niley> #quit
[23:09] <Nedal> Thanks guys !
[23:09] <timvisher> i'm on xubuntu 14.04 and i'm trying to get the latest version of zsnes (1.510+bz2-7), which was supposedly uploaded to the debian ftp archives (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=740860). how do i go about doing that?
[23:10] <daftykins> installing debian packages in ubuntu would likely be very unwise
[23:11] <Ozymandias42> @daftykins why?
[23:11] <Ozymandias42> isn’t Ubuntu based on Debian anyway?
[23:11] <timvisher> ok. is there any way to get 1.510-bz2-7 then?
[23:11] <timvisher> according to apt-cache i have 1.510-bz2-6
[23:11] <daftykins> Ozymandias42: doesn't mean you can throw packages of one at another and think it'll be great :)
[23:11] <timvisher> which sounds like why i'm experiencing this bug
[23:12] <Ozymandias42> of course not. But they aren’t inkompatible either. They just have to be managed through apt, haven’t they?
[23:12] <daftykins> you would not pull in debian debs through apt, no
[23:13] <Ozymandias42> why not? Isn’t debian using apt-get as well? It’s an Debian tool if I’m informed correctly
[23:14] <timvisher> so… thoughts on my question? :)
[23:14] <KYD> can anyone tell me where i can change the image that is default on Antix linux boot login?
[23:15] <daftykins> Ozymandias42: you don't seem to know how repos work, if you hooked up a debian repo that happened to contain that one package, it'd start trying to update all the rest. anyway, your query isn't even the original one so there's not much point going off on this tangent
[23:15] <daftykins> timvisher: go ask #debian how to grab the package, if you feel like giving it a go. you'll need to remove your existing one, then try putting it on manuall.
[23:15] <k1l> KYD: obviously ask antix support :)
[23:15] <Ozymandias42> daftykins: Ah of course, you’re right. Hadn’t thought of that. Thx4Info
[23:15] <daftykins> i never know whether to laugh or cry when people come in here asking for help with other distros
[23:16] <KYD> from what network or channel?
[23:16] <daftykins> KYD: that's for you to look up
[23:16] <daftykins> KYD: we are not freenode's personal directory staff
[23:16] <KYD> trying to
[23:16] <KYD> no worries... ill find it
[23:16] <timvisher> daftykins: i don't much feel like giving it a go. i was ignorant to the situation. i'm now asking how to fix this bug in xubuntu 14.04's version of zsnes
[23:17] <daftykins> don't know. not familiar with said bug
[23:17] <daftykins> timvisher: maybe if you find a page explaining it?
[23:17] <daftykins> but likely it involves recompiling the program
[23:18] <timvisher> daftykins: i linked to the page explaining it (yes on debian's archives). it seems that there have been patches applied to the zsnes sources to the version that would be downloaded from the source.
[23:18] <timvisher> is there some way i can get the sources used to compile the version in apt?
[23:18] <daftykins> apt has nothing to do with compilation
[23:19] <timvisher> according to the version number at least, they're likely to be talking about the same version
[23:19] <timvisher> daftykins: i think i understand that. i'm asking if there's a way to get to the sources associated with the version in apt
[23:19] <daftykins> so to rephrase - you're asking how to download the source to the ubuntu package?
[23:20] <timvisher> the source that was used to compile the ubuntu package
[23:20] <elky> apt-source
[23:21] <elky> i think
[23:21] <timvisher> elky: command not found on my system
[23:21] <elky> no, apt-get source
[23:21] <timvisher> apt-cache search returns nothing
[23:21] <timvisher> ok
[23:22] <elky> been a while since i pulled apt source
[23:22] <k1l> apt-get source package
[23:22] <OerHeks> zsnes Utopic 1.510+bz2-8
[23:24] <timvisher> elky: yep. that was it
[23:24] <timvisher> OerHeks: what's that about?
[23:25] <daftykins> !info zsnes
[23:25] <OerHeks> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zsnes
[23:25] <daftykins> i believe OerHeks is pointing out that utopic's version is newer
[23:25] <timvisher> daftykins: ah. that would require upgrading my distro, right?
[23:25] <OerHeks> But might not be the fix you want, i am not sure about that.
[23:25] <daftykins> timvisher: no
[23:26] <daftykins> i would never suggest going off of LTS releases :D
[23:26] <timvisher> daftykins: ok. that sounds promising :)
[23:26] <daftykins> you can try installing utopic's package though
[23:26] <daftykins> well, thank OerHeks then!
[23:26] <timvisher> how do i go about doing that?
[23:26] <daftykins> timvisher: you were linked to the page, heh
[23:26] <timvisher> i just confirmed that the sources used for my package don't have that patch applied
[23:26] <timvisher> ah. the launchpad thing?
[23:27] <daftykins> http://launchpadlibrarian.net/176906551/zsnes_1.510%2Bbz2-8_i386.deb
[23:27] <daftykins> remember to remove your current version first
[23:27] <daftykins> otherwise a whole swarm of penguins will peck out your eyes
[23:28] <timvisher> i'm not seeing any instructions here :\
[23:28] <timvisher> i have never done anything like this before so :)
[23:28] <timvisher> i'm assuming i curl that file down
[23:28] <OerHeks> bug says " 5 Mar 2014 Found in version zsnes/1.510+bz2-6 and Fixed in version zsnes/1.510+bz2-7" so 2-8 sounds great to build.
[23:29] <daftykins> curl, wget, browser download, pray...
[23:29] <timvisher> then `apt-get remove zsnes`
[23:29] <daftykins> yes albeit with sudo
[23:29] <timvisher> then how do i install the deb file?
[23:29] <daftykins> either double click or "sudo dpkg -i file.deb"
[23:29] <k1l> timvisher: for official ubuntu repos there will not be an update after release. but you can look for a PPA with a newer version.
[23:30] <k1l> timvisher: or you can build it yourself from source
[23:31] <timvisher> ok. do i need to keep the deb around afterwards?
[23:32] <ax562> hola
[23:32] <daftykins> timvisher: well, i would hope 600KB isn't breaking the bank of your storage.
[23:32] <daftykins> :D
[23:32] <piter-de-vries> lol
[23:33] <daftykins> you could always pop it on a floppy
[23:37] <in_deep_thought> No bootable device found. Shouldn’t it have installed one when I installed ubuntu?
[23:38] <in_deep_thought> cripes. I bet I messed up sda vs sdb or something
[23:38] <riq_linux> d
[23:39] <MrHeavy> I'm trying to install ZFS on Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64, but DKMS keeps building the modules as 32-bit, even when I run DKMS by hand and specify -a x86_64. Anyone know what might cause this?
[23:39] <ubuntu064> has joined
[23:47] <in_deep_thought> No bootable devices found. This happens immediately when I trying an run my new install. All of the google advice says to enter commands at the command line, but this happens before I get to a command line. How can I get to a command line in this mode?
[23:48] <in_deep_thought> please stop leaving me………………… where is everyone going?
[23:49] <piter-de-vries> Hard drive failed?
[23:49] <EriC^^> in_deep_thought: boot a live usb
[23:49] <EriC^^> type sudo parted -l and paste it in paste.ubuntu.com
[23:50] <in_deep_thought> EriC^^: I cannot find anywhere to type anything
[23:50] <EriC^^> do you have a live usb?
[23:50] <in_deep_thought> EriC^^: I have a usb with ubuntu image on it. Is this a “live usb”
[23:50] <EriC^^> yeah
[23:50] <EriC^^> boot it, press try ubunt
[23:51] <EriC^^> *ubuntu
[23:52] <in_deep_thought> EriC^^: ok so I pressed enter on “USB device” under legacy boot
[23:52] <in_deep_thought> now I see it wants me to select a language
[23:52] <samthewildone> !chrome
[23:52] <in_deep_thought> does that sound right?
[23:53] <in_deep_thought> I don’t see “try ubuntu anywhere
[23:53] <EriC^^> in_deep_thought: is it a lubuntu image?
[23:53] <in_deep_thought> No, ubuntu
[23:53] <EriC^^> in_deep_thought: kind of odd, select a language though
[23:53] <in_deep_thought> should I select a language? I feel like I missed something
[23:53] <in_deep_thought> ok now were getting somewhere
[23:54] <EriC^^> in_deep_thought: did you install in legacy mode?
[23:54] <in_deep_thought> Install ubuntu, check disc for defects, test memory, boot from first hard disk, rescue a broken system
[23:54] <in_deep_thought> those are the options
[23:54] <in_deep_thought> EriC^^: the USB device was under a “legacy boot” section
[23:54] <EriC^^> ok, when you installed it earlier, you also chose legacy mode right?
[23:55] <EriC^^> in_deep_thought: does the pc have any other operating system on it?
[23:55] <in_deep_thought> umm, i dont remember
[23:55] <in_deep_thought> EriC^^: no it shouldn't
[23:55] <in_deep_thought> i don’t want it to at least
[23:55] <EriC^^> in_deep_thought: ok, try boot from first hard disk
[23:55] <in_deep_thought> EriC^^: ok
[23:56] <in_deep_thought> um that just tells me to select a language again and then brings me back to the same menu
[23:56] <EriC^^> ok, try rescue a broken system
[23:57] <EriC^^> which ubuntu is this?
[23:57] <in_deep_thought> 12.04
[23:57] <EriC^^> ok
[23:59] <EriC^^> in_deep_thought: any luck?
[23:59] <in_deep_thought> EriC^^: ok I think this is where I messed up last time: it wasnts me to choose a device to use as root file system
