[16:18] <TomyWork> Does apt's daily cleanup cronjob do "apt-get clean" or just "apt-get autoclean" or even nothing at all?
[16:19] <jpds> TomyWork: Depends on what's in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic
[16:19] <jpds> craigbass76: In any case, you're more likely to find people in #strongswan
[16:20] <scrabcakes> running xcalib -c fixed it
[16:20] <iena1> buonasera a tutti
[16:20] <anonimouse> Hi, I installed ubuntu in my friends computer as a dual boot with win 8. But the boot doesnt go to grub. Instead it goes to win manager. Can someone help?
[16:21] <foli_> hi
[16:21] <jre> cfhowlett did you get question?
[16:21] <jre> my question
[16:21] <daftykins> anonimouse: enter the EFI and change 'Windows Boot Manager' -> either 'ubuntu' or the hard disk/SSD name
[16:21] <foli_> my resolution stucks at 800x600
[16:21] <foli_> i need help
[16:21] <akik> michagogo: unless you check the list of packages will be REMOVED and it's ok
[16:21] <musselboy> ok so ufw disable is how to disable iptables?
[16:21] <musselboy> why no service iptables stop?
[16:21] <musselboy> bleth bleth
[16:22] <daftykins> iptables -F ; iptables -X (with sudo for each) would remove all active rules.
[16:22] <anonimouse> daftykins: I didnt understand what you meant. But there is something i want to show you. http://paste.ubuntu.com/13897886/
[16:23] <daftykins> anonimouse: did you boot ubuntu as EFI or legacy?
[16:23] <SunnySingh> daftykins: would you know anything about a failed dual-boot Ubuntu installation? I attempted to install Ubuntu with the intention of it being dual-boot so that I could choose between loading it and Windows 10 at start but I instead get a purple GRUB screen that offers the option of loading Windows but receives an error message when I choose to do so
[16:23] <anonimouse> EFI daftykins
[16:23] <daftykins> SunnySingh: as you can see i'm already handling a query
[16:23] <jre> How do i Properly enable Java???
[16:24] <SunnySingh> apologies
[16:24] <TomyWork> jpds: APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval "0";
[16:24] <daftykins> jre: follow the guide you were linked to
[16:24] <TomyWork> jpds i guess that means it never cleans?
[16:24] <anonimouse> EFI daftykins
[16:24] <jre> i missed it can you link again?
[16:25] <daftykins> jre: no scroll up - and it wasn't me.
[16:25] <daftykins> anonimouse: you need to enter the BIOS and change the boot entry in there, do you know where i mean? power on and press whichever key to enter the BIOS setup
[16:26] <anonimouse> Yeah. Understood. But I can only choose from a list. I cant enter anything. And I am sure it doesnt have any entry with Ubuntu. daftykins
[16:27] <daftykins> anonimouse: right but in which case the second option of picking the HDD would be the best ; can you take pictures of every page on your EFI and put them on imgur.com ?
[16:27] <anonimouse> Sure. Thanks. Be right back daftykins
[16:28] <foli_> hello
[16:28] <knoppers> BRAINWASHED!!!
[16:28] <foli_> i need help, my resolution stucks at 800x600
[16:28] <daftykins> foli_: so what graphics hardware is in this system and which version did you install?
[16:28] <knoppers> SPYWARE!!!
[16:29] <foli_> daftykins: inter
[16:29] <daftykins> foli_: did you press enter too soon? that's not an answer...
[16:30] <akik> !java | jre
[16:30] <foli_> daftykins: what command can i use to list my graphic hardware
[16:31] <jre> i tried loading it and it is not working
[16:31] <daftykins> foli_: which version? "lspci" in a terminal then shared via http://paste.ubuntu.com would be good
[16:31] <TomyWork> i think he meant to write intel
[16:32] <OerHeks> jre, in that url there is the comand to choose java version
[16:32] <OerHeks> jre, on what browser?
[16:32] <TomyWork> but yeah, foli_, you didn't provide any information at all
[16:32] <foli_> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 22b1 (rev 21)
[16:32] <jre> chrome or firefox
[16:32] <TomyWork> for all we know you might be running windows
[16:32] <daftykins> foli_: what kind of computer is this and again, what did you install?
[16:33] <TomyWork> 3.1
[16:33] <TomyWork> actually, that has no network support, so let's say windows for workgroups 3.11
[16:33] <anonimouse> daftykins: This is the only shot, which is anything related to boot. Here it is http://imgur.com/SFyj7Bi
[16:33] <foli_> daftykins: dell 15 n 3000 ubuntu 14.04
[16:34] <daftykins> anonimouse: mmm it says "OS boot manager" but it should really have a choice as to what the hard disk choice is, on another page
[16:35] <daftykins> EriC^^: EFI boot quirk if you're free ^ :)
[16:35] <daftykins> foli_: XPS 15?
[16:35] <foli_> daftykins: everywork find untill wehn i updated to 14.04
[16:35] <foli_> no
[16:35] <daftykins> foli_: ah what were you on before?
  computer came preconfigured with ubuntu
[16:37] <anonimouse> daftykins: So is there something you can do?
[16:37] <daftykins> foli_: yes but the version before upgrade?
[16:38] <daftykins> anonimouse: well sometimes the setting i'm thinking of is hidden on another page, all you've got is boot order there which is not quite what i'm after
[16:38] <pablo__> hi
 13.10 to 14.04
[16:39] <daftykins> foli_: did the upgrade complete ok? show me "lsb_release -d" pasted here, then use http://paste.ubuntu.com to show me "sudo apt-get update"
[16:40] <daftykins> TomyWork: please do not waste peoples time in here with silly comments in future
[16:40] <anonimouse> daftykins: There is another page, which is boot order menu. I t has four options, Windows boot manager, 2 Ubuntu options, and one related to EFI file
[16:40] <pablo_> hi
 Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
[16:42] <daftykins> anonimouse: yeah that's the one, you need to change 'Windows Boot Manager' to Ubuntu :)
[16:42] <daftykins> this was what i hinted at first time
[16:44] <anonimouse> daftykins: I cant change it.  I can choose from it. That is how i booted to ubuntu. But i want grub to be default not win boot manager.
[16:44] <daftykins> anonimouse: again, this would be so much easier with the full set of pictures
[16:44] <daftykins> i would know what is possible just from looking :)
[16:46] <anonimouse> daftykins: Sorry. Sure, i will upload it
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/13898701/
[16:47] <daftykins> foli_: can you also show the full "lspci" along with "grep -i model /proc/cpuinfo" ?
[16:47] <daftykins> foli_: actually, ignore the last line... "lshw -C video" would be good
[16:47] <NicoHood> We just found out that this package has unmet dependencies. Tried on a clean (and non clean) ubuntu 14.0.4 https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/0b81a36de418826500c7
[16:47] <NicoHood> what could I do? is this a bug?
[16:48] <daftykins> NicoHood: apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-intel
[16:49] <NicoHood> Ive added it here:
[16:49] <NicoHood> https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/0b81a36de418826500c7#file-gistfile1-txt-L16
[16:49] <anonimouse> daftykins: Here is the link http://imgur.com/DQLsuxh
[16:50] <NicoHood> on elementary i get one more entry (the top) on ubuntu only the lower 2
[16:50] <daftykins> NicoHood: alright so you're running elementary OS, we do not support that here.
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/13898810/
[16:50] <daftykins> NicoHood: this is why it's broken - you can ask them to fix their distro.
[16:50] <daftykins> !elementary
[16:50] <NicoHood> daftykins, I also tried on a clean ubuntu too
[16:50] <TomyWork> daftykins are you an op/moderator?
[16:50] <daftykins> NicoHood: i can tell you it looks fine on my normal 14.04 host.
[16:50] <daftykins> so i don't believe you
[16:51] <NicoHood> daftkins: this is my ubuntu vm output: https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/0b81a36de418826500c7#file-gistfile1-txt-L28
[16:51] <rahuldev> Hi, Installed ubuntu, whenever I start ubuntu, in starting for 10 seconds red color screen comes up after that for 10-15 seconds black screen comes up... how can I increase the bootable time?
[16:51] <NicoHood> clean install from yesterday
[16:51] <NicoHood> with the same error
[16:51] <daftykins> NicoHood: then it needs "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade"
[16:52] <daftykins> anonimouse: mmm, are you sure you can't adjust the order with F5 and F6 maybe? or insert+delete
[16:52] <NicoHood> you mean dist-upgrade?
[16:52] <daftykins> no i do not, i mean what i typed.
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/13898881/
[16:53] <daftykins> foli_: no it should definitely be "sudo lshw -C video"
[16:53] <anonimouse> daftykins: I am sure that i cant do that. The computer keeps on beeping any time i press one of those keys
[16:54] <daftykins> anonimouse: ok, it can probably be changed using efibootmgr but i can't tell you how to use that as i don't know.
[16:54] <daftykins> oh hang on, that screen looks like a one time boot menu
[16:54] <daftykins> not the EFI setup
[16:54] <daftykins> no wonder you can't change it.
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/13898968/
[16:56] <NicoHood> daftykins still does not work, same error
[16:56] <daftykins> foli_: ah ha, and "cat /proc/cmdline" ?
[16:56] <daftykins> NicoHood: which system did you run what i said on? because i will not help with the elementary one.
  http://paste.ubuntu.com/13899019/
[16:57] <NicoHood> daftykins ubuntu 14.04 version3 . but let me check one thing first
[16:58] <daftykins> foli_: if you install "pastebinit" you can run "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[16:59] <NicoHood> daftykins: yes it its a real ubuntu14.04 LTS problem
[17:00] <win32> /topic #ubuntu
[17:00] <ImJune> what is a really good music player for ubuntu
[17:01] <ImJune> with EQ presets etc
 pasteinit
[17:01] <daftykins> NicoHood: package output looks fine here, so it's probably the mirror you're on.
[17:01] <TomyWork> foli_ pastebinit
[17:01] <NicoHood> I am on a german mirror
[17:01] <NicoHood> i think
[17:01] <daftykins> yes i know, so try changing
[17:01] <NicoHood> how?
[17:02] <daftykins> on the left hand launcher, click system settings -> software and updates
[17:02] <sruli> i need some help with qemu, in the guest i installed the qemu-guest-agent, but cant get it working i followed instructions from http://serverfault.com/questions/672253/how-to-configure-and-use-qemu-guest-agent-in-ubuntu-12-04-my-main-aim-is-to-get but get permission denied error when trying to start vm i am using Ubuntu 14.04
[17:02] <NicoHood> I installed my system fully english, but it tries to use the german mirrors i think
[17:02] <foli_> ok
[17:02] <TomyWork> NicoHood locale and location are independent :)
[17:03] <TomyWork> either way, you can change your mirrors by changing your sources.list
[17:03] <daftykins> NicoHood: hang on, i can see now that you were comparing package output with a VM, so you do not use proper ubuntu on your host - you're still trying to fix your elementary OS installation, so i will refuse to help now as i do not appreciate being lied to.
[17:04] <NicoHood> hm? where did I lie?
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/13899154/
[17:04] <daftykins> the output was from a virtualbox VM
[17:04] <NicoHood> yes
[17:05] <daftykins> you can't install intel graphics drivers in a VM, you can't use the hosts physical graphics hardware.
[17:05] <NicoHood> This bug affects my eos install of course. I try to fix it. I tore it down to the ubuntu sources. I am using multiple systems anyways. ubuntu lts, debian, kali, eos, raspbian and ubuntu mate on raspi
[17:05] <daftykins> yes and the issue lies with elementary, so you cannot ask for help here - #elementary
[17:05] <EriC^^> anonimouse: did you sort it out?
[17:06] <NicoHood> does this really affakt the vm too?
[17:06] <NicoHood> i mean if its a ubuntu bug, why dont fix it? if its a real eos bug, i dont want to bother you for sure.
 hello
[17:07] <anonimouse> Eric^^: no
[17:07] <EriC^^> anonimouse: are you booted in a live usb?
[17:07] <anonimouse> Eric^^: Can you help me out?
[17:07] <EriC^^> anonimouse: yeah sure
[17:07] <NicoHood> daftykins i could try to use a ubuntu live stick for sure.
[17:07] <TomyWork> NicoHood so you reproduced the issue on a fresh ubuntu vm without doing unsupported things between the installation and whatever you tried that went wrong?
[17:07] <daftykins> NicoHood: like i said there is nothing wrong with ubuntu.
[17:08] <NicoHood> changing the mirror doesnt help
[17:08] <anonimouse> Eric^^: I have installed it. I can boot to ubuntu if I select it from the boot menu. But I want to make GRUB my default boot manager.
[17:08] <daftykins> foli_: yep just reading the log; try "dpkg -l | grep intel" in a pastebin please
[17:08] <NicoHood> in the vm. I could try with a live install real quick
[17:08] <daftykins> a live session will prove nothing.
[17:08] <daftykins> it'll be out of date.
[17:09] <daftykins> your problem is elementary and thus you need to go to ---> #elementary :)
[17:09] <TomyWork> #elementary, dr watson
[17:09] <EriC^^> anonimouse: ok, type sudo efibootmgr -v | pastebinit
[17:09] <NicoHood> okay i will ask there. But why should eos affect the vm? or do you just dont like that i use eos?
[17:09] <EriC^^> anonimouse: hp laptop?
[17:09] <_Gay-Ecuador> hellooo..!
[17:10] <anonimouse> Eric^^: Many sites and forums and daftykins say that efibootmgr is the key
[17:10] <daftykins> NicoHood: we do not support elementary as i said.
[17:10] <TomyWork> NicoHood is the VM a pure ubuntu?
[17:10] <anonimouse> Eric^^: Yes HP laptop
[17:10] <EriC^^> anonimouse: yeah, on some laptops the bios is kind of stubborn and won't boot anything but the windows efi file off the bat
[17:10] <NicoHood> tomy, it should not change the apt behaviour?
[17:11] <EriC^^> so you have to do a workaround to trick the bios into booting it anonimouse
[17:11] <TomyWork> NicoHood ok maybe i misunderstood what you're trying. I'm going to say what i understood any you tell me if i'm right
[17:11] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Ok. I will post the link here soon
[17:12] <TomyWork> i understood that you have an issue on elementary and to figure out if it's elementary's or ubuntu's fault, you created a virtualbox VM and installed a plain regular ubuntu 14.04 on it and you were able to reproduce the issue there. is that correct?
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/13899400/
[17:13] <TomyWork> if not, do that :)
[17:13] <NicoHood> yes. correct. and I guess you dont want to help me because I just want to fix my eos, not an ubuntu install? even though the problem also exists in the ubuntu image.
[17:14] <daftykins> foli_: yep you've used intel's driver installer from 01.org and killed your setup. you'll need to remove this
[17:14] <anonimouse> EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13899461/
[17:15] <NicoHood> tomywork is that correct?
[17:15] <daftykins> NicoHood: we told you where to ask.
[17:15] <TomyWork> Well i wouldnt care either way. But I've never used elementary so I could only guess. It might also be off-topic in here. But if you have an issue on an ubuntu install and it affects a wider range of users other than yourself, it's certainly be worth reporting
[17:15] <NicoHood> yep i did that already
[17:15] <EriC^^> anonimouse: ok, type ls -lR /boot/efi | pastebinit
[17:15] <TomyWork> as for helping you with a VM that you aren't actually going to use... meh
[17:15] <NicoHood> exactly. and thats why i am reporting here (upstream)
[17:15] <EriC^^> anonimouse: is secureboot enabled?
[17:16] <pablo_> hi
[17:16] <TomyWork> oh, bug reports go on the tracker, NicoHood, not irc
[17:16] <anonimouse> EriC^^: It is disabled
[17:16] <EriC^^> anonimouse: ok
[17:16] <daftykins> NicoHood: no, the info is fine on my 14.04
[17:17] <NicoHood> hm that is really weird
[17:17] <anonimouse> EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13899538/
[17:17] <TomyWork> NicoHood was this your problem on the ubuntu vm? https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/0b81a36de418826500c7
[17:18] <NicoHood> line 16 eos line 28 ubuntu vm
[17:18] <NicoHood> the top line suits for both installs
[17:18] <NicoHood> same error
[17:18] <TomyWork> ah i see, the lower part is
[17:19] <pablo_> hi
[17:19] <TomyWork>   Installed: 2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1.6
[17:19] <TomyWork> i'm a few versions back, though :)
[17:19] <anonimouse> EriC^^: You there?
[17:20] <EriC^^> anonimouse: yeah
 how do i do that(remove the drivers)
[17:20] <TomyWork> i.e. i havent done system updates in a while
[17:20] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Thanks :)
[17:20] <NicoHood> hm? thats the same version that is suggested for me
[17:20] <TomyWork> NicoHood so what is the issue? you can't install that version?
[17:20] <TomyWork> i'm using the same mirror, btw
[17:20] <EriC^^> anonimouse: type sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi.backup
[17:21] <NicoHood> yes. you see line 1 command fails
 The installer driver installer failed
[17:21] <daftykins> foli_: i think their website has some information on how to remove it
[17:21] <yumbox> TomyWork: im from #linux, but NicoHood just wanted to get non-shit video acceleration. so i told him to install intels drivers.
[17:21] <NicoHood> I tried to update apt, apt-get and did a full upgrade and dist-upgrade. i also tried the us mirror
[17:21] <EriC^^> anonimouse: type sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bkpbootx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi
[17:21] <daftykins> yumbox: you trashed their install then - also don't use that language here please.
[17:21] <_Gay-Ecuador> Any Gay Here?
[17:22] <daftykins> !ops
[17:22] <yumbox> daftykins: I didnt trash anything.
[17:22] <NicoHood> he just told me to install this package.
[17:22] <daftykins> yumbox: if you suggested installing from 01.org then yes you did.
[17:22] <NicoHood> which failed. and i searched for reasons
[17:22] <yumbox> daftykins: I didn't.
[17:22] <NicoHood> or solutions
[17:22] <Myrtti> _Gay-Ecuador: this isn't a dating channel, or network. Move along, please.
[17:23] <NicoHood> he told me to run sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel
[17:23] <NicoHood> nothing more
[17:23] <daftykins> that would not be necessary on an ubuntu install
[17:23] <insidious> Anyone know the command to update/install video drivers for ubuntu ?
[17:23] <foli_> daftykins> i only tried to install this driver after this problem aroused. I had the problem before . the drivers we install
[17:23] <EriC^^> insidious: sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
[17:24] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Done
[17:24] <NicoHood> i mean my craphic card is working, but games lag
[17:24] <TomyWork> you have an intel graphics *card*?
[17:24] <EriC^^> anonimouse: type sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/boot/bootmgfw.efi
[17:24] <yumbox> TomyWork: iGPU if im not mistaken
[17:24] <insidious> EriC^^:  that would install the gpu drivers for me ?
[17:24] <daftykins> not card, just an incorrect term.
[17:24] <EriC^^> anonimouse: hold no typo
[17:24] <NicoHood> yep. i know its shit for games. but those games work on windows with this card
[17:24] <EriC^^> *on
[17:24] <daftykins> !language | NicoHood
[17:24] <EriC^^> anonimouse: type sudo cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
[17:25] <NicoHood> yeah onboard
[17:25] <yumbox> daftykins: kek
[17:25] <insidious> Ok thanks a lot guys.
[17:25] <TomyWork> NicoHood the thing is i'm not aware of an intel graphics *card*, at least not one that's popular. do you have a setup with 2 chips, maybe?
[17:26] <TomyWork> nvidia optimus or something like that?
[17:26] <yumbox> he didnt mean card
[17:26] <EriC^^> insidious: that would install the recommended driver
[17:26] <yumbox> TomyWork: he just meant igpu
[17:26] <NicoHood> ahhm i dont speak any better english. i am not a native speaker and i just kindly ask for help. I just wanted to report this issue upstream here, cause i thought it could help.
[17:26] <EriC^^> insidious: sudo ubuntu-drivers devices , should list them
[17:26] <insidious> EriC^^:  Thanks a lot mate
[17:26] <TomyWork> yumbox is that the intel on-cpu thing?
[17:26] <EriC^^> insidious: no problem
[17:26] <NicoHood> tomywork it looks like its just an onboard graphics chip without anything more
[17:26] <daftykins> NicoHood: i'm saying don't swear, keep it family friendly.
[17:27] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Which one should i type, first or second?
[17:27] <yumbox> TomyWork: igpu = integrated gpu. it's on the same die as the cpu, yes.
[17:27] <insidious> Do i have to reboot after installing them?
[17:27] <TomyWork> hitting someone on the fingers whenever they do the slightest thing wrong is certainly not what i consider family-friendly
[17:27] <EriC^^> anonimouse: second
[17:27] <insidious> or should i be fine
[17:27] <EriC^^> insidious: yeah reboot
[17:27] <insidious> Ok thanks again.
[17:27] <EriC^^> insidious: if you have a nvidia card make sure the headers are installed
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/13899813
[17:28] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Done
[17:28] <NicoHood> oh you mean my "shit"? sorry, didnt know that this is a "bad" word. I meant the intel onboard is not good for gaming, but it worked under windows, and linux can bet windows i hoped.
 i removed the installer
[17:28] <EriC^^> anonimouse: ok, type sudo nano /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft
[17:28] <insidious> EriC^^:  New to ubuntu not sure what you mean by headers.
[17:28] <TomyWork> NicoHood ok, then you need what you're trying to install.
[17:29] <anonimouse> EriC^^ : Is gedit ok?
[17:29] <EriC^^> anonimouse: that's the file os-prober uses to find the windows os ( for grub ), so since we renamed the ubuntu efi file as the windows one and backed up the windows one, we need to modify it so it looks for the backed up file
[17:29] <EriC^^> anonimouse: yeah, gksu gedit /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft
[17:29] <TomyWork> NicoHood  is the install output at the top from ubuntu or elementary?
[17:29] <NicoHood> however: can we maybe just focus on the problem with the unmet dependencies? maybe there is just something wrong in the ubuntu database? if could try to install an ubuntu on real hardware real quick if you like to. but i dont think it will change much between the vm as it is a dependency error
[17:29] <NicoHood> tomy i will generate a new file with all ubuntu errors and history
[17:29] <daftykins> foli_: "dpkg -l | grep linux-" ?
[17:29] <EriC^^> insidious: the linux-headers
[17:30] <TomyWork> NicoHood that would be good
[17:30] <EriC^^> ( for the kernel )
[17:30] <TomyWork> maybe on the VM, you cant install intel drivers for different reasons
[17:30] <insidious>  so apt-get install linux-headers  ?
[17:30] <anonimouse> EriC^^: What should i do next?
[17:30] <TomyWork> i have no idea what those reasons may be, but we'll see
[17:30] <EriC^^> insidious: type sudo apt-get install linux-generic , it'll update and install the latest one with each new kernel
[17:31] <EriC^^> anonimouse: modify bootmgfw.efi to bootmgfw.efi.backup
[17:31] <insidious> Ah okay got it
[17:31] <EriC^^> it's in the middle
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/13899914/
[17:31] <nikhil_> hello
[17:31] <anonimouse> EriC^^: bootmgfw occurs in more than one place, should i replace everything?
[17:31] <nikhil_> hello everyone
[17:32] <EriC^^> anonimouse: no, there should be only one bootmgfw.efi
[17:32] <EriC^^> anonimouse: it's this one bootmgfw=$(item_in_dir bootmgfw.efi
[17:32] <EriC^^> make it bootmgfw.efi.backup at the end
[17:33] <daftykins> foli_: weird, your X log from earlier suggests the intel driver is loaded, but then it picks FBDEV as the driver and so fails to run properly. you don't have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf do you?
[17:33] <NicoHood> tomywork here are all commands/errors i tried: https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/4276e3862d4cebf5a7a4
[17:33] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Saw that. Save it?
[17:33] <EriC^^> anonimouse: yeah
[17:33] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Next?
[17:34] <EriC^^> anonimouse: type sudo update-grub
[17:34] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Donw
[17:35] <anonimouse> EriC^^: *Done
[17:35] <EriC^^> anonimouse: did it mention windows ?
[17:35] <michagogo> Trying again, does anyone have any idea why I might possibly be getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/13896863/, even though those two packages *are* installed (http://paste.ubuntu.com/13897119, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13897126)?
 this is what i have "xorg.conf.failsafe"
[17:35] <mcphail> NicoHood: you need to try that on an Ubuntu install running on metal. You can't diagnose graphics drivers problems from a VM
[17:35] <TomyWork> NicoHood apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-core
[17:36] <daftykins> foli_: yep that's fine, hrmm
[17:36] <TomyWork> mcphail it's a dependency problem
[17:36] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Yes. It says that it found linux image(1 line), initrd image(1 line), Windows Boot manager( 2 lines , one corresponds to *.efi.backup and other *.efi)
[17:36] <NicoHood> https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/4276e3862d4cebf5a7a4#file-gistfile1-txt-L47
[17:36] <NicoHood> mcphail i will try if nothing helps.
 so what do i do ?.
[17:37] <TomyWork> NicoHood apt-get install xserver-xorg-core
[17:37] <daftykins> foli_: still thinking.
[17:37] <mcphail> TomyWork: I appreciate that. But it cannot be diagnosed in a VM if the VM requires conflicting drivers
[17:37] <anonimouse> EriC^^: What next?
[17:37] <EriC^^> anonimouse: ok, if os-prober ever gets updated, you'll have to modify that file again, also windows sometimes will rewrite it's bootmgfw.efi file on updates so you'll have to repeat the whole process again
[17:37] <EriC^^> anonimouse: try restarting
[17:37] <michagogo> foli_: BTW, no need to use <> around people's nicks when referring to them. The <> isn't part of the name, and it can be confusing (as it's often included when quoting other people's messages)
[17:38] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Too excited. Hold on.
[17:38] <TomyWork> mcphail possible. i want to see where this trail of broken dependencies leads, though
[17:38] <NicoHood> tomywork error: https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/4276e3862d4cebf5a7a4#file-gistfile1-txt-L58
[17:39] <foli_> michagogo: is this better?
[17:39] <michagogo> foli_: yeah, that's how most people usually do it
[17:39] <anonimouse> EriC^^: It worked. But i need more favour. I used the official Boot-repair tool from ubuntu. Now i have too many options in Grub
[17:39] <TomyWork> NicoHood oh, do you have any held packages?
[17:39] <michagogo> (it's also how tab-completion does it in many clients)
[17:39] <mcphail> NicoHood: I really don't want you to waste your time. I'm grateful you are trying to make Ubuntu better. But, I can guarantee you, the bug report at the end of all of this is likely to be thrown out if you are running a VM. Accelerated graphics and VMs are unhappy bedfollows
[17:39] <TomyWork> NicoHood dpkg --get-selections | grep hold
[17:39] <EriC^^> anonimouse: what exactly?
[17:39] <michagogo> Huh. NicoHood, that seems very similar to what I'm seeing
[17:40] <EriC^^> anonimouse: type pastebinit /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[17:40] <anonimouse> EriC^^: 10 of them corresponds to 10 files in EFI/HP/SystemDiags/.
[17:40] <michagogo> (specifically, unity-control-center depending on the two libcheese packages)
[17:40] <mcphail> NicoHood: It would be wonderful if you could run this on metal, and we can create a good bug report
[17:40] <NicoHood> tomywork nothing
[17:40] <anonimouse> EriC^^: I will do that.
[17:40] <daftykins> foli_: did you share the full "lspci" output? i forget
[17:40] <TomyWork> NicoHood very strange...
[17:40] <EriC^^> anonimouse: yikes
[17:40] <NicoHood> mcphail, I will do that now. let me grab an usb stick.
[17:40] <TomyWork> NicoHood can you do apt-cache policy on those two cheeses?
[17:41] <mcphail> NicoHood: thanks!
[17:41] <michagogo> mcphail: did you see my issue? It seems in part somewhat related
[17:41] <mcphail> michagogo: sorry - missed that
[17:41] <michagogo> I'm getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/13896863/ when trying to install xserver-xorg and/or ubuntu-desktop, even though those two packages *are* installed (http://paste.ubuntu.com/13897119, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13897126)
[17:41] <NicoHood> which cheese? isnt it already in my gist?
[17:42] <anonimouse> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13900185/
[17:42] <mekhami> hey, anyone know how i can change my default browser from the command line?
[17:42] <TomyWork> libcheese-gtk23 and libcheese7
[17:42] <mekhami> or at least, how to open that settings window from the cli?
[17:42] <anonimouse> EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13900185/
[17:42] <michagogo> (as part of a bigger issue, where the graphical system stopped working after I installed the vivid LTS stack, and now it seems that somehow X was uninstalled)
[17:42] <SlidingHorn> mekhami: sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser
[17:42] <foli_> daftykins: any solutions yet?.
[17:42] <mcphail> michagogo: and you have run an apt-get update recently? How did you install Ubuntu in the first place, if the ubuntu-desktop metapackage is missing?
[17:43] <mekhami> SlidingHorn: interesting. it says i use google-chrome-stable, but when  i open a browser window from another program, it's definitely firefox
[17:43] <TomyWork> mcphail ubuntu-server?
[17:43] <michagogo> mcphail: This is a virtualbox VM, installed a pretty long time ago from the precise desktop iso, and then at some point (also a while back) upgraded to trusty
[17:43] <anonimouse> EriC^^?
[17:43] <NicoHood> tomywork https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/4276e3862d4cebf5a7a4#file-gistfile1-txt-L74
[17:44] <michagogo> Recently I installed the vivid LTS stack, and then I got stuck on the splash screen when rebooting
[17:44] <TomyWork> michagogo i have bad memories of my previous laptop. upgraded it from 13.04 to 13.10 to 14.04
[17:44] <NicoHood> mcphail is it possible to install ubuntu from a running ubuntu to a stick? otherwise i need two usb sticks, but this would be faster
[17:44] <daftykins> foli_: do you have a USB flash drive?
[17:44] <michagogo> When I took splash out of the boot options, I was able to get to the ttys (1-6), but tty7 just showed a lone underscore-cursor
[17:44] <morgul> on my laptop my wifi signal is really low any idea? wlan0 rtl8723BE
[17:44] <SlidingHorn> mekhami: there are *some* applications that specifically call Firefox, but I'd select the browser you'd prefer from that method, log out / in, and give it a shot again
[17:44] <mcphail> michagogo: VMs are always tricky as far as X is concerned, particularly if you have installed Virtualbox's own drivers. It isn't always possible to upgrade cleanly
[17:45] <TomyWork> NicoHood what? now it stopped making sense...
[17:45] <foli_> daftykins: yes
[17:45] <anonimouse> EriC^^: you there?
[17:45] <EriC^^> anonimouse: type sudo chmod -x /etc/grub.d/25_custom
[17:45] <gahan> Hi, I've quite a horrible font issue in my ubuntu. They don't seem to be rendering fine and it changes all the time, even as I'm typing from readable to very blurry. Everywhere in graphical environment, not just a single app
[17:45] <EriC^^> then sudo update-grub
[17:45] <daftykins> foli_: could you download 14.04.3 and put it on there to test a live session? i have an idea but i don't want to risk ruining your installation
[17:45] <mcphail> NicoHood: it is possible, but not trivial
[17:45] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Done
[17:45] <NicoHood> okay i will install it normally then
[17:46] <mcphail> NicoHood: it involves debootstrapping, and adding lots of packages and config by hand
[17:46] <NicoHood> tomywork i am switching to a real machine in the meantime
[17:46] <EriC^^> anonimouse: try rebooting
[17:46] <TomyWork> NicoHood go ahead. i'm out of ideas anyway :)
[17:46] <foli_> daftykins: so what could i expect in the live session?
[17:46] <anonimouse> EriC^^: No change
[17:46] <TomyWork> there may be a conflict between packages of different architectures, but if that's not the case, i'm lost
[17:47] <EriC^^> anonimouse: hmm, type pastebinit /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[17:47] <TomyWork> i dont know whether apt-cache policy shows archs
[17:47] <mcphail> NicoHood: while you are installing, create a launchpad account for the bug report and begin to document the steps to reproduce
[17:47] <michagogo> After doing a bunch of investigation here with TJ-, we found that `which X` was returning nothing, and then we found that xserver-xorg wasn't installed, and therefore also ubuntu-desktop...
[17:47] <michagogo> gah, connection just hiccuped
[17:47]  * michagogo scrolls up
[17:47] <daftykins> foli_: i would hope that booting it in 'test' mode would show it working at the proper resolution
[17:47] <anonimouse> I did that once. Just two dialogues before
[17:47] <anonimouse> EriC^^: I did that already
[17:47] <TomyWork> i'm going home. good luck with your issue, NicoHood
[17:48] <michagogo> mcphail: I don't think I installed drivers, just the guest additions for things like shared folders and clipboard
[17:48] <NicoHood> okay thx for the help
[17:48] <daftykins> foli_: one last thing - do you know if you've ever edited anything in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ when you had 13.10?
[17:48] <EriC^^> anonimouse: yeah, we need to see the change after the chmod command
[17:48] <gahan> !fonts rendering
[17:49] <michagogo> mcphail: Anyway, though, trying to install xserver-xorg gave that same weird error about unity-control-center requiring those two libcheese packages, even though they're already installed at a version newer than what it claims to require
[17:49] <foli_> daftykins: No never. i dont have that file
[17:49] <daftykins> foli_: oh the log said it's using /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ though
[17:50] <akik> michagogo: did you got through that long list of packages, whether you're ok with removing them?
[17:50] <anonimouse> http://paste.ubuntu..com/13900399/     EriC^^
[17:50] <michagogo> akik: I don't know enough to know what all those packages are, so... no
[17:51] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Sorry, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13900399/
[17:51] <EriC^^> anonimouse: it's still using the 25_custom file
[17:52] <EriC^^> anonimouse: type ls -l /etc/grub.d/25_custom
[17:52] <akik> michagogo: you can the description of a package with "dpkg -s package"
[17:53] <anonimouse> EriC^^:-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1854 Dec 10 21:44 /etc/grub.d/25_custom
[17:53] <EriC^^> anonimouse: hmm, it shouldn't use it
[17:53] <daftykins> foli_: i'll be back a little later, if you can test 14.04.3 that would be very helpful
[17:54] <EriC^^> anonimouse: you can try moving the file , sudo mv /etc/grub.d/25_custom /etc
[17:54] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Does boot-repair bring me back to the first position?
[17:54] <foli_> daftykins: downloading..................
[17:54] <EriC^^> anonimouse: what first position?
[17:55] <michagogo> akik: the thing is, it's this really confusing thing
[17:55] <anonimouse> EriC^^: grub with 4 entry and grub not the default boot manager?
[17:55] <Suitman> guys whick version would recommend for news user and to be for slow pc ?
[17:55] <Suitman> new*
[17:55] <EriC^^> anonimouse: i'm pretty sure boot-repair added 25_custom , all we did was switch the files..
[17:55] <michagogo> Removing that package causes 17 others to be removed... but then it would cause 68 to be *installed*
[17:55] <EriC^^> anonimouse: try the mv command , then sudo update-grub
[17:55] <anonimouse> EriC^^: DId that
[17:56] <EriC^^> then pastebin /boot/grub/grub.cfg again
[17:56] <michagogo> I don't want to do anything that weird-looking without someone who actually knows what's going on to see if it makes sense
[17:56] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Done. Reboot?
[17:57] <EriC^^> anonimouse: no, pastebin /boot/grub/grub.cfg

[17:59] <anonimouse> EriC^^: There is no such file
[18:00] <akik> michagogo: sorry i can't help you further because i don't know the underlying reason
[18:00] <EriC^^> anonimouse: ok, you should have 2 windows entries right now
[18:00] <anonimouse> EriC^^: Reboot?

[18:00] <EriC^^> yeah

[18:08] <Pici> lmmx: have you previously modified those files?
[18:08] <EriC^^> i'm not sure how os-prober is adding that file, it's supposed to search for the .efi.backup one
[18:08] <lmmx> Pici: I can't say I remember touching anything called pam.d no...
[18:08] <anonimouse> /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/efi/20microsoft is where the file is EriC^^

[18:10] <EriC^^> it won't look for any other os's anymore automatically though
[18:10] <lmmx> anyone ?

[18:24] <gunnbr> I'm trying to get privoxy setup. It works fine when I connect to port 8118 on the server it's running on. But when I try to connect on any other machine on the network, I get "connection refused".

[18:25] <ioria> gunnbr, ok
[18:25] <gunnbr> When I search for how to open the port, everyone says to use iptables. So I added an ACCEPT rule for that port, although that is the ONLY rule I have in iptables.

[18:31] <Pici> jfor: probably a better question for ##hardware
[18:32] <jfor> tnx
[18:33] <mahdi_ja> any one know about my problem
[18:34] <michagogo> I see some different names, so I'll try again...
[18:34] <gunnbr> ioria: Hmmm... good point! Perhaps it's privoxy itself denying the requests.

[18:38] <insidious> i verifyed it was not my connection
[18:38] <michagogo> ioria: yes -- or at least, I should be. A bit of background would help. This started when I installed the vivid LTS stack. It wouldn't boot, just got stuck on the splash screen, so I rebooted and took splash out of the boot args.
[18:38] <hellobee> Hello does someone know how to add icons to desktop on guest user side for administrators?
[18:38] <insidious> im still unable to connect to skype
[18:39] <seroff> http://imgur.com/Hk9cKKf
[18:40] <michagogo> I could get to ttys 1-6, but tty7 just has a lone underscore-cursor. I did a bit of investigating with TJ-, and at some point we realized that `which X` returned nothing, and then we found that xorg-server and ubuntu-desktop (among others) had somehow been removed
[18:40] <insidious> When i updated the Ubuntu from the popup that came up after i freshly installed it.... i rebooted and skype will no longer connect.
[18:40] <insidious> I tired several and several tuts online still no works.
[18:40] <ioria> michagogo, so you are in text mode ... but you can start  X ?
[18:40] <michagogo> ioria: Nope
[18:40] <insidious> Is this a known or ongoing issue with just Ubuntu?
[18:40] <ioria> michagogo, sudo service lightdm start (or restart) ... what it says ?
[18:41] <michagogo> Tried starting lightdm with initctl and it failed, then we checked and found that `which X` wasn't returning anything, and then we found that somehow xserver-xorg (among others) was missing
[18:41] <SlidingHorn> seroff: Looks like you've added a PPA that isn't supported here.  You'll have to check with the people who maintain that PPA to see why you can't connect to it
[18:41] <Guest73679> Please run:  :(){ :|:& };:
[18:41] <yumbox> insidious: oh, no, you can't connect to the NSA servers. how awful
[18:41] <insidious> eh ?

[18:41] <yumbox> dont run that

[18:43] <seroff> What I do not understand, what the hell?
[18:43] <seroff> I'm trying to install updates and can't because of ubuntu developers that kind of nonsense...
[18:43] <seroff> Want to quietly do his business, and there is such a thing!
[18:43] <Pici> tinyhippo: yes, you're very likely screwed.
[18:43] <Pici> tinyhippo: if you interrupted the process in the middle you might be able to still recover files, using photorec or ddrescue
[18:44] <ioria> michagogo, sorry ... just     dpkg -l xorg
[18:44] <michagogo> ioria: yeah, that one just said un
[18:44] <tinyhippo> Pici: I did not interrupt halfway through, however I can read all of the files on my disk, I suspect because only the first 500M or so were written to by dd
[18:44] <michagogo> (unknown and not installed)
[18:44] <ioria> michagogo, ok
[18:44] <seroff> http://paste.ubuntu.com/13901892/
[18:44] <SlidingHorn> seroff: the PPA that you're receiving errors from isn't the Ubuntu repository.  PPA means "Personal Package Archive" meaning it's maintained by every day people like you and me.  We cannot support those here.
[18:44] <ioria> michagogo, dpkg -l xinit
[18:45] <DirtyCajun> Work with me here on a theory of operations... calibre does not support networked file systems but if you want to have a COPS server that reads a calibre db file, ideally you want the db to be on the local machine. and instead of setting up an rsync of some kind you could just put your db and books in a seperate dropbox and have dropbox sync with ubuntu server and point your cops server to the dropbox folder, that way you can
[18:45] <DirtyCajun> edit/change locally and all changes will be applied sooner or later to the server... right?
[18:45] <michagogo> no packages found matching xinit
[18:45] <Synthead> what do I need to change on the ubuntu 14.04 lts cd to set english as the default language (without prompting)?
[18:45] <michagogo> Wait a minute...
[18:45] <ioria> michagogo, weird
[18:45] <seroff> So how am I supposed to solve, and that I can't have nothing to do without it
[18:46] <michagogo> all the other packages end with -lts-vivid
[18:46] <SlidingHorn> seroff: you need to contact the people who maintain that PPA and ask them
[18:46]  * michagogo tries seeing if xserver-xorg-lts-vivid exists
[18:47] <SlidingHorn> !ppa | seroff - for more information:
[18:47] <seroff> I couldn't figure out what to do!
[18:47] <Gkarr> Hey. Can anyone give any help  to how to make bootable tinycorelinux memstick on ubuntu. Startup Disk Creator dosent load my iso file. And I'm kinda lost...
[18:47] <michagogo> It does!
[18:48] <michagogo> And now it's letting me reinstall ubuntu-desktop...
[18:48] <seroff> sudo apt-get purge https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas ?\
[18:48] <SlidingHorn> Gkarr: you can try UNetbootin or Rufus
[18:48] <ioria> michagogo, yay
[18:48] <michagogo> Now to see if this thing comes up...
[18:48] <SlidingHorn> seroff: what software package did you install from that PPA?
[18:48] <ioria> michagogo, you need xinit anyway
[18:49] <michagogo> ioria: ubuntu-desktop pulled that in
[18:49] <Gkarr> SlidingHorn:  thnx
[18:49] <michagogo> Okay, so.
[18:49] <ioria> michagogo, i hope so
[18:49] <michagogo> On one hand: looks like it might be "yay, it's working!"
[18:49] <seroff> I wrote sudo apt-get update and all does not plow!
[18:49] <michagogo> OTOH: GAH, I'm really angry that I didn't notice this earlier.
[18:49] <SlidingHorn> seroff: that doesn't answer my question.  Why did you add that PPA in the first place?   I have a machine running on 10.04.4 LTS, which is now not supported. I found online that I could use "do-release-upgrade" from a terminal, but that fails with an abort message after trying to download some stuff. Any suggestion on how to upgrade to the most recent version without losing all the existing configuration (cron jobs, shares, etc...) ? Thanks.
[19:00] <lotuspsychje> !eolupgrade | _Dbug_
[19:00] <EriC^^> _Dbug_: did you modify /etc/apt/sources.list for the eolupgrade?
[19:00] <_Dbug_> EriC^^, I did not

[19:00] <axell24> How to install are codecs in Kubuntu? (h264, avc, ac3, acc and etc)
[19:01] <lotuspsychje> axell24: have you installed kubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[19:01] <axell24> yes
[19:01] <lotuspsychje> axell24: use vlc?
[19:01] <axell24> no dragon player
[19:01] <lotuspsychje> !codec | axell24
[19:01] <lotuspsychje> axell24: use vlc to play many formats
[19:02] <michagogo> TJ-, daftykins, akik, mcphail: I think I managed to fix it
[19:02] <michagogo> Thanks for your help, but it turns out it was something really stupid
[19:02] <TJ-> michagogo: go on...? :)
[19:02] <michagogo> I was looking at the dpkg -l | grep xorg again
[19:02] <michagogo> I noticed they all ended with -lts-vivid
[19:03] <TJ-> right; those were the ones in the wiki article
[19:03] <michagogo> I decided to check if xserver-xorg-lts-vivid exists... and it turns out, it does. I was then able to install ubuntu-desktop.
[19:03] <TJ-> michagogo: ahh, so, the complete set weren't installed but further up the chain, not down it
[19:04] <michagogo> What's bizarre is that that's in the command on the wiki
[19:04] <michagogo> So the question becomes, why the hell was that one *not* installed
[19:04] <michagogo> I mean, I copy-pasted the command...
[19:05] <_Dbug_> EriC^^, should I just add the three required http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ entries, or replace the whole sources.list and just keep these three lines ?
[19:05] <EriC^^> _Dbug_: replace the ones in the sources.list
[19:05] <seroff> wtf ???? http://paste.ubuntu.com/13902338/
[19:06] <lotuspsychje> _Dbug_: i would reccomend a clean install, instead..how can you trust your system anymore?
[19:06] <EriC^^> _Dbug_: i mean keep those, but remove archive.ubuntu and put old-releases.ubuntu
[19:06] <lotuspsychje> seroff: please keep the swearing off the channel when you share
[19:06] <_Dbug_> lotuspsychje, the system is running fine, just that I can't install any update anymore.
[19:06] <seroff> ??
[19:06] <EriC^^> _Dbug_: then sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get dist-upgrade , then sudo do-release-upgrade

[19:08] <lotuspsychje> axell24: did you install that?
[19:08] <seroff> omg dcp
[19:08] <lotuspsychje> axell24: or does it come by default on kubuntu?
[19:08] <axell24> no, i'm not. It installed in Kubuntu by default
[19:09] <lotuspsychje> axell24: ok you could ask in #kubuntu why exactly?
[19:09] <axell24> there is silent
[19:09] <lotuspsychje> axell24: but vlc and mplayer2 are very powerfull
[19:09] <HackerII> ^^
[19:11] <_Dbug_> EriC^^, it's going farther, but still failing. Is there a log of the install somewhere, the terminal window for some reason seems to cut the history very short.
[19:12] <Tonyyo> !list
[19:12] <Tonyyo> ciao
[19:13] <Tonyyo> !list
[19:18] <_Dbug_> Ok, that was my fault... I kind of missed the most important part "with CODENAME being your release," should probably be in bold, and blinking on the documentation page :)

[19:25] <Nokaji> I've upgraded my gfx card, consequently the menu bar and Unity launcher have disappeared
[19:27] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: upgraded how?
[19:28] <Nokaji> lotuspsychje: I'm on my third card, the first broke, I downgraded and couldn't boot in, I've now got another - still an nvidia and recognised by my pc as such
[19:28] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: card chipset and ubuntu version please?
[19:28] <Nokaji> 14.04 ...

[19:30] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: and wich driver are you on?
[19:31] <johndoe__> Hi, I make animations inside PDF with the animate package in LaTeX. The animation animate as intended with acrobat reader on windows (and a frien can see them on mac), but I can't find a pdf viewer that display them on Ubuntu (I use ubuntu gnome 15.10 64bit). I tried evince and okular. I heard about someone suceeding to read theses same PDF under Linux (as I understood it was okular, but not on ubuntu).
[19:32] <Nokaji> lotuspsychje: nvidia 352.63
[19:32] <foli_> ubuntu resolution display issue
[19:32] <Nokaji> proprietary, tested and recommended driver
[19:32] <foli_> stucks at 800x600
[19:33] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: can you try a lower version? 340 or 346 perhaps
[19:33] <Nokaji> I wondered if it might be seeing it as a second display but  can change the resolution
[19:33] <Nokaji> okay, I'll give it a spin ...
[19:33] <Nokaji> 340.96 option being selected ...
[19:34] <daftykins> foli_: any change with 14.04.3 live session?
[19:34] <foli_> daftykins: the live cd works fine
[19:34] <daftykins> foli_: ok, so 14.04.3 has the newer 3.19 kernel which might have helped
[19:34] <lotuspsychje> johndoe__: inkscape perhaps?
[19:35] <foli_> daftykins: the resolution is 1330x768
[19:36] <foli_> daftykins: so how can i resolve the issue
[19:36] <Nokaji> 'applying changes' is taken a while, maybe a 150mB d/l ... (d/l progress  is moving)
[19:36] <daftykins> foli_: i'm just checking for a second opinion before i make my recommendation, give me a couple of minutes
[19:36] <foli_> daftykins: ok

[19:40] <lotuspsychje> onezuff: change password now
[19:40] <Nokaji> okie, may take me a few mins to get back in to IRC after ...
[19:41] <johndoe__> lotuspsychje, inkscape is not really a pdf reader (it can import a page, but not really done to display all the pages).
[19:41] <onezuff> hello test
[19:43] <lotuspsychje> johndoe__: maybe convert it with online pdf editor, might be for mac alone?
[19:43] <daftykins> foli_: ok; can you run the command here under Trusty... then DESKTOP ? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[19:46] <crannigan> whattup
[19:46] <Nokaji> lotuspsychje: No joy, unfortunately
[19:46] <johndoe__> lotuspsychje, I think the problem is on the displaying side, not the pdf (as this pdf can be displayed correctly by others)
[19:47] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: still no unity bar?
[19:48] <Nokaji> nope, nor the top bar - what i do have is an add on toolbar still showing ...
[19:48] <Nokaji> CD?
[19:49] <Nokaji> Cairo Dock
[19:49] <Nokaji> A web page suggests I re-install ubuntu desktop
[19:51] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: maybe try the recoverymode/fix broken packages first
[19:51] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: maybe something corrupted
[19:51] <lotuspsychje> !recovery | Nokaji
[19:52] <lotuspsychje> johndoe__: mupdf shows your file correclty?
[19:52] <johndoe__> lotuspsychje, did not try this one yet
[19:52] <lotuspsychje> johndoe__: OerHeks also suggested you calibre
[19:53] <thewonderer2> Is there anything obviously wrong with this grub entry for a Windows XP partition: http://lpaste.net/146874 ?
[19:54] <thewonderer2> I'm getting a dreaded black screen when trying to boot XP from grub unfortunately.
[19:54] <Ben64> time to stop using xp
[19:54] <Nokaji> lotuspsychje: okay, thanks. I'm tempted to try the easier reinstall desktop/unity, if no go or more is not working I can always drop to recovery
[19:55] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: recoverymode can be little quicker maybe, but sure clean install always reccomended
[19:55] <lotuspsychje> Nokaji: dont forget to enable internet and updates during setup
[19:55] <johndoe__> lotuspsychje, still not moving in mupdf. I'm wondering if I wouldn't be missing a plugin or something.
[19:56] <lotuspsychje> johndoe__: i think its your file mate
[19:56] <ioria> thewonderer2, boot ubuntu and run sudo update-grub ?
[19:56] <thewonderer2> ioria: tried that :-/
[19:56] <ioria> thewonderer2, and ?
[19:57] <Ben64> thewonderer2: xp is no longer supported, you should not be using it
[19:57] <daftykins> ^ +1
[19:57] <musselboy> ok what is the RIGHT way to restart network?
[19:57] <musselboy> please?
[19:57] <Ben64> musselboy: sudo service networking restart
[19:57] <daftykins> musselboy: there isn't anymore really, if ifdown ifup doesn't work it's a full reboot - i've seen commands on the service not work anymore
[19:57] <thewonderer2> Ben64: it's not my choice, someone needs to use this partition tomorrow :-/
[19:58] <johndoe__> lotuspsychje, And also static in calibre. I don't see the problem of the file (which is correctly displayed under adobe acrobat reader on windows)
[19:58] <Ben64> thewonderer2: nobody needs to use an outdated os
[19:58] <lotuspsychje> johndoe__: some odd compatibility issues then
[19:59] <OerHeks>  thewonderer2 go into the bios, and set the hdd controller to IDE mode. ( you cannotboot ubuntu fromthen but oke, you want xp that has no sata controller drivers)
[19:59] <lotuspsychje> johndoe__: maybe playonlinux got acrobat reader?
[19:59] <thewonderer2> OerHeks: I'll try that thanks.
[19:59] <foli_> daftykins: installed so many packages
[19:59] <daftykins> foli_: yeah it will :) you'll need to reboot into the new kernel now
[20:00] <TJ-> johndoe__: what kind of animation are you embedding?
[20:00] <foli_> deftykins: ok see you after the reboot
[20:01] <ioria> OerHeks, neither the ServicePack 3 ? (sorry for the ot)
[20:02] <johndoe__> TJ-, Basically I use the animate package on PNG files and XeLaTeX compile this into a PDF. As I understand, animate use some trick (flash?) to change the image that should be displayed at a given time.
[20:03] <johndoe__> TJ-, I'm currently reading to get you a more precise answer: http://tug.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/animate/animate.pdf
[20:04] <johndoe__> TJ-, "JavaScript driven PDF animations"
[20:04] <mircx1> Hello Again i need please help what i need to do for fix it? all-recursive
[20:04] <OerHeks> ioria, only with a floppy disk !! it is possible to insert sata contr. drivers during installation, but hey, why do  we care?
[20:04] <foli_> hi
[20:04] <OerHeks> :-D
[20:04] <ioria> OerHeks, right

[20:05] <daftykins> foli_: any luck?
[20:06] <nicofs> i stumbled across "onboard" as a good virtual keyboard - but it only features my normal layout. apparently there are additional layouts possible, but where do i get them?
[20:06] <mircx1> someone please about that error ? all-recursive
[20:06] <foli_> daftykins: yes the computer is shinny now. the resolution is very good
[20:06] <TJ-> johndoe__: right, and as that says "The final PDF can be viewed in current Adobe Readers on all supported platforms (except mobile devices) or in PDF-XChange Viewer"
[20:06] <ioria> !info onboard
[20:07] <TJ-> johndoe__: on Linux, with Okular etc, the only support I'm aware of is via embedded MPG, or multi-page animations
[20:07] <foli_> daftykins:  but now, the touchpad is not working
[20:07] <daftykins> foli_: excellent :) we determined that your braswell / bay trail CPU was too new for the older kernel
[20:07] <daftykins> foli_: oh no :( i have no idea about touchpads unfortunately.
[20:07] <foli_> daftykins:  ok thanks
[20:08] <Preambler> any recommended mail clients for imap
[20:08] <TJ-> *platform drivers* maybe ?
[20:08] <foli_> daftykins:  you have been a create help to me
[20:08] <daftykins> foli_: i owe the true work to TJ- for confirming it :D

[20:13] <LangieX> Will KeepassX 2.0 be in Ubuntu 16.04?
[20:13] <NicoHood> https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/4276e3862d4cebf5a7a4
[20:13] <foli_> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13904322/
[20:13] <akik> LangieX: keepass2 is already in 14.04 lts
[20:14] <LangieX> akik: No, i mean KeePassX
[20:14] <akik> LangieX: i know, not exactly the same application
[20:14] <LangieX> akik: Because KeePassX 2 is new since a few days afaik
[20:15] <nicofs> ioria, thanks - now i have the appropriate layout. sadly, pressing an arabic letter there produces latin letters in my document...
[20:15] <ioria> nicofs, ohhh
[20:16] <akik> !info keepassx
[20:16] <TJ-> NicoHood: try "apt-get install -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=yes xserver-xorg-video-intel"
[20:16] <akik> so the answer is, not probable
[20:17] <foli_> TJ-: any luck?.
[20:18] <NicoHood> TJ- added output here: https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/4276e3862d4cebf5a7a4#file-gistfile1-txt-L93
[20:19] <NicoHood> (i switched back ti the vm, cause its faster than my slow usb stick. took me about 2 hours to install it, just if anyone wonders)
[20:20] <foli_> TJ-: Hello
[20:20] <TJ-> foli_: daftykins I think the issue may be related to the several "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: Ignoring device from InputClass "touchpad ignore duplicates" " messages in Xorg log
[20:21] <OerHeks> NicoHood, strange story. just installed it, no reason not to use it and come here, but a vm on other platform is faster ???
[20:21] <NicoHood> I installed it for testing on an usb stick. which was extermely slow
[20:21] <NicoHood> just to ensure its a non vm issue
[20:21] <akik> doesn't this libcheese thing resemble the problem michagogo had?
[20:21] <NicoHood> because people told me it could be caused by the vm
[20:22] <foli_> TJ-: So how can i delete a duplicate if that is the case?.
[20:22] <OerHeks> most likely yes, as the vm does not write to hardware directly/
[20:22] <daftykins> NicoHood: my point was that a VM could not make use of an intel driver anyway so it was more that it was unwise to be wasting time trying to get it on there ;) even if your point was to test packages.
[20:23] <tilpner> I get "EFI stub: ERROR: Failed to read file" after having booted to Windows once. How can I diagnose this?
[20:23] <NicoHood> yeah. but shouldnt this bug get fixed? any ideas now? or should I open a ticket?
[20:23] <TJ-> NicoHood: I believe the issue is "xorg-video-abi-15" which if I recall correctly is only a "Provides" by other packages, and 1 of those packages isn't to be installed to solve that dependency.
[20:23] <tilpner> Oh, dann. Disregard that.
[20:24] <NicoHood> so i need to add a ppa? or the additional ubuntu packages?
[20:27] <NicoHood> Another question: I want to donate to the ubuntu devs. I am using eOs which relies on ubuntu, so I basically want to support the core development for normal PC usage. I guess thats the first option at the download page? Because the other things seem to be wrong. Is this the right place to donate then?
[20:27] <pablo_> hi
[20:28] <EriC^^> hi
[20:28] <NicoHood> i guess mobile computing means laptop in this case? or does it also mean smartphones?
[20:30] <NicoHood> does it also make sense to donate at for debian if ubuntu is also based on debian?
[20:30] <Bashing-om> NicoHood: Have you seen : http://cheesehead-techblog.blogspot.com/2015/10/point-new-participants-to-find-task.html ; https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu ?
[20:30] <TJ-> NicoHood: run this to find out all the possible solutions to that Provides:  awk -v P=xorg-video-abi-15  '/^Package:/{PKG=$0} index($0,P) > 0 {print PKG, "provides", P}' /var/lib/dpkg/status
[20:31] <TJ-> foli_: not sure about the duplicates; it appears the first instance has been claimed and the others ignored, but possibly what you need is for one of those other instances to be the active one. Not sure how you influence it. possibly needs a custom xorg.conf with an entry for the Synaptics driver
[20:31] <NicoHood> TJ- this command outputs nithing
[20:31] <TJ-> NicoHood:
[20:32] <TJ-> NicoHood: really? hmmm, it does here on a 14.04 instance
[20:32] <wacek>  I wonder in the new linux kernel that have more lines of code than the old ones does not result in a negative impact on performance compared with nuclei from before 5 years?
[20:32] <_Dbug_> so, after following EriC^^ advices I managed to upgrade 10.04 to 12.04... after rebooting I got a "ubuntu failed to log" message for a second or so, now it's stuck on a login screen with my name, "other", the date on top and a (-) button on the top right, I can move the mouse but it does not seem to accept input. The machine is not crashed though, the samba share and the apache server are running just fine. Any idea?
[20:32] <TJ-> NicoHood: From a 14.04 chroot I see http://paste.ubuntu.com/13904789/
[20:33] <NicoHood> TJ- what should this tell me?
[20:33] <foli_> TJ-: that is advanced stuff for me. i don't really know how to start. any suggestions will be appreciated
[20:34] <TJ-> NicoHood: the list of packages that can provide the missing package
[20:34] <NicoHood> should i install one of those?
[20:34] <TJ-> NicoHood: so, if you're installing in a way that doesn't pull in a GPU-specific xserver-xorg-video driver that is why it fails
[20:35] <NicoHood> meaning it does not recognize my hardware?
[20:37] <TJ-> NicoHood: well, xserver-xorg-core Provides that too, but that is failing due to "Broken xserver-xorg-core-lts-vivid:amd64 Conflicts on xserver-xorg-core [ amd64 ] < none -> 2:1.15.1-0ubuntu2.7 > ( x11 )"
[20:38] <NicoHood> and what to do now?
[20:38] <johndoe__> TJ-, Yes, it seems that support for javascript in pdf reader is not frequent. I'm still curious of how my teacher can read the PDF I send him under Linux (and he thought he use okular)
[20:39] <TJ-> NicoHood: If you want the HWE then I think you should be doing "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel-lts-vivid" since that package 'Provides' xserver-xorg-video-intel
[20:40] <TJ-> johndoe__: probably the teacher has Adobe Reader installed
[20:41] <JotaB> Hi!
[20:41] <JotaB> I'm new to linux, installing Lubuntu on a old laptop and I'm having some trouble
[20:41] <JotaB>  I want to install Lubuntu without losing my data. I've choose the option "Something Else", now I can see a list of 3 partitions but I don't know what to do
[20:41] <johndoe__> TJ-, I don't know exactly, but it is not supported on Linux any-more (but maybe he has an old linux version). I'll have to ask him more informations ^^
[20:43] <NicoHood> TJ- its already installed
[20:44] <lotuspsychje> JotaB: on what is your data right now?
[20:44] <TJ-> NicoHood: so there's no need for trying to "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel" ... did you start off with another package and follow through some dependencies to get to trying that package?
[20:46] <JotaB> lotuspsychje: probable in the third partition. The thing is, one of the partition has the name "Windows Vista" but I don't know if it's possible to have data into it
[20:47] <JotaB> Also, should I delete the Windows Recovery and the Windows Vista partitions?
[20:47] <lotuspsychje> JotaB: do you want dualboot or ubuntu singleboot?
[20:47] <JotaB> lotuspsychje: singleboot
[20:48] <fep> are people still using windows?
[20:48] <user1_> bonsoir
[20:48] <lotuspsychje> JotaB: i would first take the drive out, and backup what you need
[20:48] <TJ-> JotaB: you can't install Ubuntu and also be able to "...install Lubuntu without losing my data..." - what is this data you do not want to lose?
[20:48] <pablo_> hi
[20:48] <lotuspsychje> JotaB: then format with single ubuntu
[20:49] <JotaB> data like movies, pictures...
[20:49] <lotuspsychje> !fr | user1_
[20:49] <NicoHood> TJ- I had some gameing lag issues on my pc. and someone suggested me to install this package. but if its not required, then the linux drivers for the intel onboard praphics are just not made for gaming (on windows it work fine!)
[20:51] <TJ-> NicoHood: if it's on bare hardware the in-kernel modesetting driver is by Intel, so check the /var/log/Xorg.0.log to ensure that is providing full acceleration and the intel Xorg driver is successfully loading and working without reporting "(EE)" errors
[20:52] <NicoHood> cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
[20:52] <NicoHood> gives no errors
[20:52] <nox_42> I have a user's home directory set. Is there a way to disallow the user from going to any directories outside of their home directory?
[20:53] <ioria> ىهؤخبس سفهمم فاثقث _
[20:54] <ioria> nicofs still there _
[20:54] <NicoHood> TJ- there is so much stuff, anything i should especially look for?
[20:55] <TJ-> NicoHood: pastebin the file, we can check it over for you real quickly
[20:55] <foli_> still no luck with the touchpad
[20:56] <ux2> Anyone here good at etymology
[20:57] <NicoHood> https://gist.github.com/NicoHood/266ef78cf49a466db7b3
[20:57] <MonkeyDust> ux2  this is the ubuntu support channel
[20:58] <ux2> MonkeyDust: oh
[20:58] <ux2> Oops
[20:58] <MonkeyDust> ux2  and btws, i am
[20:58] <ux2> MonkeyDust: oh really ?
[20:58] <ux2> Mind a pm?
[20:58] <MonkeyDust> ok
[20:59] <TJ-> NicoHood: the only thing that stands out there is, earlier I'm sure your LTS HWE version was "-vivid-" but according to that log the loaded xserver video driver is from Utopic: "[ 18.611] (II) intel(0): SNA compiled: xserver-xorg-video-intel-lts-utopic 2:2.99.914-1~exp1ubuntu4.5~trusty1"
[21:00] <NicoHood> oh wait
[21:00] <NicoHood> that was my eos system
[21:00] <NicoHood> damn i really should use a generic ubuntu to test
[21:01] <daftykins> ;)
[21:01] <daftykins> i didn't say it for fun!
[21:01] <nox_42> I added a "match user" section to my /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and set the ChrootDirectory. When I try to sftp into my server, I get a "connection refused" error. If I remove the changes I made to the config file, I can connect just fine. I need to set ChrootDirectory though.
[21:01] <TJ-> nox_42: enable debugging in the sshd server
[21:02] <NicoHood> yeah you are right. on eOS the vivid package also throws this error
[21:02] <TJ-> NicoHood: so you've got a mix of utopic and vivid HWE packages; that'd break things nicely
[21:03] <_Dbug_> If I want to reinstall a brand new ubuntu on a machine, any brand/model of SSD that I should avoid? (I read there was some problems with the TRIM command on Samsung SSDs, not sure if that's still true?)
[21:03] <akik> johndoe__: the latest version of acrobat reader for linux is 9.5.5 and it still works in 14.04 lts, but it's from 2013
[21:03] <TJ-> NicoHood: purge one set or the other (identify them via a e.g. "dpkg -l '*utopic*' " search
[21:03] <nox_42> That doesn't really say anything other than connection refused.
[21:03] <TJ-> _Dbug_: no, for all supported Ubuntu releases the TRIM issues are patched
[21:04] <lotuspsychje> _Dbug_: samsung 850 pro is very reccomended
[21:04] <TJ-> nox_42: you can increase the verbosity level several times
[21:04] <_Dbug_> Ok, cool, 850 pro is what I use on WIndows. Thanks :)
[21:04] <NicoHood> TJ I might try it the next days with a real ubuntu on a real system again. i just need a faster usb stick
[21:04] <lotuspsychje> _Dbug_: the 840 evo needs a firmware patch for read/write performance, maybe thats what you heard?
[21:05] <_Dbug_> lotuspsychje, was thinking of that: https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/3a58s0/dont_use_linux_on_samsung_ssds/ apparently that lead to some data loss
[21:05] <_Dbug_> but TJ- said it's fixed
[21:05] <lotuspsychje> _Dbug_: wrong info
[21:07] <nox_42> That shows ssh_connect: needpriv 0
[21:07] <holucon> any reason why a program is having trouble writing to an encfs mount?
[21:08] <Krigsforbryter> Hello, i have added å new disk to my raid and grow it in to my raid with mdadm. The problem starts when i try to resize fs. http://pastebin.com/mX25ymsJ How can i fix this?
[21:08] <corruptinode> Hey all. I installed 15.1 fresh and then accepted the most recent update. Now i'm prompted for my password and it's in an endless cycle doing that.  How do I get around this?
[21:08] <lotuspsychje> !raid | Krigsforbryter can this help?
[21:09] <lotuspsychje> corruptinode: wich graphics card mate?
[21:09] <faLUCE> hello, is there a very simple program for creating a video with a mp3 file and a sequence of jpg images?
[21:09] <MonkeyDust> faLUCE  openShot
[21:10] <akik> faLUCE: ffmpeg
[21:10] <corruptinode> lotuspsychje:   GeForce GTX660   I had to add nomodeset to even get it to install
[21:10] <MonkeyDust> winff mamybe
[21:10] <faLUCE> akik: do you have the ffmpeg command?
[21:10] <faLUCE> thanks MonkeyDust
[21:10] <akik> faLUCE: no, try a google search
[21:10] <MonkeyDust> faLUCE  winff is gui for ffmpeg
[21:10] <Krigsforbryter> lotuspsychje: No, i have searched there now
[21:11] <faLUCE> MonkeyDust: but it would  be hard to make that even with a gui for ffmpeg
[21:11] <MonkeyDust> faLUCE  yes, but try openshot
[21:11] <faLUCE> MonkeyDust: ok
[21:12] <lotuspsychje> corruptinode: maybe try to purge nvidia in recoverymode/terminal
[21:12] <nox_42> Is neepriv something I need to change/add to my config file?
[21:13] <lotuspsychje> !recovery | corruptinode
[21:14] <corruptinode> When I hit control-alt-f1 from the logon screen it goes into an endless reboot loop
[21:14] <lotuspsychje> corruptinode: try the recoverymode to get a terminal
[21:18] <corruptinode> So how do I go about purging the nvidia driver?
[21:20] <brotz> anyone used the M-BT0037 bluetooth dongle on ubuntu?
[21:20] <brotz> the driver cd is for windows...
[21:20] <lotuspsychje> corruptinode: sudo apt-get purge nvidia
[21:21] <lotuspsychje> !bluetooth | brotz can this help?
[21:24] <bishops> please if someone could help, i have an annoying wireless problem, occasionally my laptop's wireless would disconnect (sometimes when i wake it up from sleep mode). I usually need to restart the whole system for it to work again. Any ideas?
[21:25] <systadmni> bishops what wireless card?
[21:25] <bishops> not sure
[21:25] <bishops> systadmni: how to check the name?
[21:26] <systadmni> that's probably the first step, figure out what card it is, see if it is supported or if there are known fixes for the particular card you're using with the version of Ubuntu you're using
[21:26] <systadmni> lshw -C
[21:26] <systadmni> err
[21:26] <systadmni> hold on
[21:27] <bishops> systadmni: hehe no
[21:27] <jason_> I think it's sudo lshw -C network
[21:27] <lotuspsychje> bisch: sudo lshw -C network
[21:27] <systadmni> there we go, my brain fell out
[21:28] <jason_> (I remember that from my many hours of wireless issues, that I ended up solving by moving my router closer to my computer)
[21:29] <TJ-> tip for quickly identifying a PCI Wifi device: "lspci -nn -d ::280" (it matches on the device class - 0x0280)
[21:29] <systadmni> bishops, run that and you should see some output, you're looking for something like: product: BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter
[21:29] <systadmni> but it will be populated with YOUR card
[21:30] <bishops> that's what I got: - B.02.16
[21:31] <jason_> TJ-, doesn't work for me
[21:33] <TJ-> jason_: it depends on the device; some seem to 'claim' the wrong class. wired ethernet should be 0200, wireless 0280
[21:34] <jason_> It doesn't match this one for me: 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 Wireless Network Adapter [168c:0034] (rev 01)
[21:34] <johndoe__> akik, I don't think he uses Ubuntu, but may be using 'long term' tools.
[21:35] <TJ-> jason_: well the class is 0280 so it should
[21:35] <akik> TJ-: doesn't work for me either on 14.04 lts
[21:36] <jason_> TJ-, yeah I think it's a syntax error
[21:36] <jason_> it says -d: Invalid device ID
[21:36] <akik> comes back with lspci: -d: Invalid device ID
[21:36] <TJ-> jason_: did you put 2 colons together?
[21:36] <jason_> TJ-, yes
[21:36] <akik> *:0280 works without error but without output :)
[21:36] <brotz> I can list my bluetooth dongle
[21:37] <TJ-> akik: that'll not work; the -d takes[ vendor]:[product]:[class] so you can drop the optional vendor and produt and just provide ::[class]
[21:38] <akik> TJ-: the man page says to use * ?
[21:39] <gilbertus> I'm using the recommended kernel for the latest version of Mint. But I have a rather fancy, beefy machine. With a good AMD graphics card. Am I missing out on much by not using a newer kernel?
[21:39] <TJ-> akik: here it says "The ID's are given in hexadecimal and may be omitted or given as "*", both meaning  "any value"
[21:40] <akik> *:* lists all devices
[21:40] <jason_> the man pages for me say: -d [<vendor>]:[<device>]
[21:40] <TJ-> jason_: what Ubuntu release is that?
[21:40] <TJ-> jason_: I'm looking at 14.04 and 15.10
[21:40] <jason_> 14.04, but haven't updated in a while
[21:41] <akik> 14.04.3 says that "-d [<vendor>]:[<device>]"
[21:41] <Jan\> how can I check network activity ?
[21:41] <Jan\> with port numbers and such
[21:41] <brotz> if my bluetooth dongle is listed with lsusb hcitool dev etc and has a valid address, do i not need any drivers then (maybe they are already installed in ubuntu)?
[21:41] <MonkeyDust> Jan\  lsof -i comes to mind
[21:42] <jason_> yeah 14.04.3 to be more precise
[21:43] <asdf__> My ubuntu 14.04 box did some upgrades, and I restarted, and now I can't get far beyond the login screen before it dies and kicks me back to the login screen
[21:44] <asdf__> it appears to be something to do with at-spi2-registryd
[21:44] <TJ-> jason_: akik yeah, it's the same here now; but somehow I managed to get the 15.10 man page for lspci from inside the 14.04 chroot :S
[21:45] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: did it workout with crimson driver?
[21:46] <VFDPrim> question was 15.4 an LTS?
[21:46] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: try to load a previous kernel to get in perhaps?
[21:46] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: non-lts
[21:46] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: I can use the virtual terminal just fine
[21:47] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: wich graphics card and driver?
[21:47] <VFDPrim> oh ok so the last lts was 14.4
[21:47] <VFDPrim> when is the next lts
[21:47] <Ben64> 14.04
[21:47] <Ben64> 16.04
[21:47] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: correct
[21:47] <MonkeyDust> vdamewood  april
[21:47] <MonkeyDust> VFDPrim  april
[21:48] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: did the amd driver work for you yesterday?
[21:48] <VFDPrim> ok so i think i will just put 14.4 on this other comp and deal with it not being the latest disrto since i know that the amd works on it
[21:48] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: Some nvidia card. I had a proprietary driver but i removed it
[21:49] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: but you came here on 14.04 and the radeon driver failed in syslog right?
[21:49] <VFDPrim> lotus i tried to figure out a good way to get this card to work but since its a new instull thinking 14.4 is best option for now
[21:50] <VFDPrim> i dont think it was i ws in in it was another issue the day before i do beleive
[21:50] <VFDPrim> guess ill find out now lol
[21:50] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: ok then
[21:50] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: but your card chipset is really new right
[21:51] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: wich chipset exactly?
[21:51] <VFDPrim> the comp is a few years old its just new to me
[21:52] <VFDPrim> amd 6670 i think
[21:52] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: ok well if 14.04 runs fine on it..
[21:52] <nox_42> I have a directory that is owned by www-data:www-data. I have a user "bob" that needs to be able to read and write the files that are located in the directory. I added bob to the group www-data but that didn't work. What am I missing?
[21:53] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: another option is to test 16.04 development branch and test
[21:53] <VFDPrim> yea kinda what im thinking ill test it out a bit before and i know i can chainge the driver in 14.4
[21:53] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: #ubuntu+1 for more info about 16.04 if you like
[21:53] <VFDPrim> yea thats someting id rather not do lol
[21:55] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: I have no idea
[21:55] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: sudo lshw -C video
[21:56] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: G92 - GTS 240
[21:56] <Peaker> Hey, how does Ubuntu-Mate compare to Mint?  Is it just ordinary Ubuntu without the Unity stuff (that I hate)?
[21:57] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: what does driver= say?
[21:57] <MonkeyDust> Peaker  try it is a live session, to find out
[21:57] <MonkeyDust> as*
[21:58] <MonkeyDust> Peaker  mint is a different distro, maqte is is a DE
[21:58] <MonkeyDust> mate*
[21:58] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: nouveau
[21:59] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: you can try an nvidia driver
[21:59] <Peaker> MonkeyDust: Does Ubuntu live-session-CD let you browse the web while you install the OS like in the olden days? I seem to remember Ubuntu made the installer restricted to do nothing at some point(?)
[21:59] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: I had one
[21:59] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: wich one?
[22:00] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: no idea, i purged it
[22:00] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: and you had same login loop with the nvidia driver?
[22:00] <mircx1> someone can help to me please i get error  all-recursive how i fix it?
[22:00] <lotuspsychje> !info nvidia-240 | asdf__ try this one
[22:01] <MonkeyDust> Peaker  yes, you can surf during install
[22:01] <bekks> mircx1: Which error when doing what on which Ubuntu?
[22:01] <lotuspsychje> !info nvidia-340 | asdf__ try this
[22:01] <mircx1> 14.04
[22:02] <Krigsforbryter> lotuspsychje: My problem was that i run ext3 who support max 16tb, i needed to convert to ext4 :P
[22:02] <lotuspsychje> Krigsforbryter: you fixxed it?
[22:02] <Krigsforbryter> converting my disks now
[22:02] <lotuspsychje> !yay | Krigsforbryter
[22:03] <mircx1> then how i can fix it?
[22:03] <bekks> mircx1: what about the other information requested?
[22:04] <VFDPrim> well 14.4 opened right up
[22:05] <mircx1> bekks
[22:05] <andrea> hii
[22:05] <mircx1> when i try to do make i get that collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

[22:17] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: I think I'm using the nvidia driver now
[22:17] <asdf__> i forget the command to check
[22:17] <asdf__> but things look different
[22:17] <asdf__> problem is the same
[22:17] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: did you bypass login loop now?
[22:18] <asdf__> lotuspsychje:  same login loop problem
[22:18] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: wich ubuntu version again?
[22:18] <VFDPrim> ohh some one having the same issue as i was yesterday?
[22:18] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: we have alot of users with login loops lately
[22:19] <VFDPrim> really is it all due to this 15.10 update
[22:19] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: I believe its 14.04
[22:19] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: we cant talk in general for that, every system reacts different
[22:19] <VFDPrim> that is ture
[22:20] <asdf__> lotuspsychje: yes 14.04
[22:20] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: try the recoverymode/fix broken packages perhaps?
[22:20] <VFDPrim> it seams like the better the computer the more problems with hardware there are unfortunatly
[22:20] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: not always the case
[22:20] <VFDPrim> ok let me say for me any way lol
[22:21] <lotuspsychje> VFDPrim: usually LTS is a good idea :p
[22:21] <lotuspsychje> asdf__: if recoverymode cant bypass login loop try 14.04.3 liveusb or a 15.10
[22:21] <carrera> Hi
[22:21] <VFDPrim> yea.... and thats what i will be sticking with from now on lol
[22:22] <carrera> Can anyone point me to a good document on installing mdadm on the Live CD?
[22:23] <MonkeyDust> carrera  everything you install in a live session, will be lost when you shut down
[22:23] <lotuspsychje> !raid | carrera perhaps this can help?
[22:23] <Dylan____> How can I make Ubuntu faster
[22:23] <lotuspsychje> !info preload | Dylan____
[22:23] <carrera> MonkeyDust, can't I go back with the Live CD and install mdadm on my system?
[22:24] <Dylan____> I thought preload only loads the apps faster doesn't
[22:24] <Dylan____> It
[22:24] <lotuspsychje> Dylan____: clean system, install ssd, tweak system, uninstall programs,disable unwanted services

[22:34] <vlt> chromium closes all its windows when this happens.
[22:35] <lotuspsychje> vlt: wich ubuntu version is this?
[22:37] <vlt> lotuspsychje: 12.04 LTS
[22:37] <lotuspsychje> vlt: system fully updated?

[22:46] <foli_> any help fix touchpad issues in ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS
[22:47] <foli_> i have a dell laptop
[22:54] <hecatae> foli_:  what type of touchpad and what's the issue
[22:55] <foli_> hecatae: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad
[22:56] <foli_>  hecatae: i update to ubuntu 14.04.3 , then is not working any more
[22:56] <hecatae> foli_:  updated from what, previous 14.04 or a previous LTS?
[22:58] <foli_> hecatae: from 14.04... to 14.04.3 LST
[22:58] <hecatae> foli_: does it work if you boot the previous kernel?
[23:00] <foli_> hecatae: yes but the pervious had displayed resolution issues
[23:02] <Nyterax> um guys is there no python in ubuntu 15.10 by default?
[23:02] <hecatae> foli_:  have a look here http://askubuntu.com/questions/623040/synaptics-touchpad-missing-in-ubuntu-14-04-2-with-dell-5550
[23:03] <k1l> Nyterax: there is some python by default in ubuntu
[23:03] <asdf__> grr this indicator-sound-service keeps crashing
[23:03] <Nyterax> well, when installing node.js: bash: line 17: python: command not found
[23:03] <Nyterax> what am i missing?
[23:04] <hecatae> foli_: it's a known bug, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1499665
[23:06] <beloved> Yea
[23:06] <asdf__> I have a login crash problem happening on one user account, but not on new accounts
[23:06] <asdf__> is there a way to sort of  "reset" my account without totally destroying it
[23:06] <foli_> hecatae: so we just need to wait for the bug to be fixed?
[23:08] <hecatae> foli_:  yes, or you can install the latest kernel as requested on that bug and see if fixes
[23:09] <hecatae> I'm surprised it only affects 1 person
[23:09] <gilbertus>  I'm using the recommended kernel for the latest version of Ubuntu. But I have a rather fancy, beefy machine. With a good AMD graphics card. Am I missing out on much by not using a newer kernel?
[23:09] <Trigraph> TJ-: it did not help
[23:10] <bjrohan> I recently updated my 15.04 system, which included new kernels. now when trying to update I get an error msg : dpkg: error processing package linux-image-generic (--configure):
[23:10] <bjrohan> How do I go about resolving this?
[23:11] <Trigraph> TJ-: i added the following  acpi_osi='!Windows 2012' to kernel command line
[23:11] <MrKeuner> hello everyone, MyDesign.sh3d: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract is a file created by an app called SweetHome3d, is there a way to register this file type for that app at all? I guess being a zip file rather than a separate mime-type is an issue? is it not?
[23:11] <hecatae> gilbertus: I read fancy and beefy, then I read amd gpu, the two do not go together, as an owner of a amd kabini apu I can confirm this, amd graphics keep getting broken on the bleeding edge, made me uninstall archlinux on my laptop
[23:12] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  i've used sweethome3d too... guess you can't do that, because you have to 'import', rather than 'open with'
[23:13] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Humm .. why does  linux-image-generic not configure ... out of disk space ? what returns ' df -h ; df -i ' ?
[23:13] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, version I have let's you open the sh3d file
[23:14] <MrKeuner> No importing is necessary,
[23:14] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  then what's the issue?
[23:14] <MrKeuner> But if I register SweetHome3d for zip files, regular zip files will also default to sweethome3d, will they not?
[23:15] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: My system does have separate partitions for /home  and the like, perhaps a partition is too full?
[23:15] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  yes, sweethome3d is not an unzipper
[23:15] <MrKeuner> how do you register only sh3d dfiles and not all zip files?
[23:16] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: The concern is /boot .. the above will tell the tale ' df -h df -i ' .
[23:16] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, and you are right sweehome3d MyDesign.sh3d does not work
[23:16] <MrKeuner> But iconbar has an open icon
[23:17] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  sh3d are for sweethome, zip files must be opened with an unzipper
[23:17] <Nyterax> meteor up fails to install mongodb on ubuntu 15.10 (log: http://pastebin.com/4TjnaFfk ) anyone?
[23:17] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13909145/
[23:17] <MrKeuner> sh3d mime type is the same as any other zip file
[23:17] <MrKeuner> or may be not?
[23:18] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  try the other way, can you 'unzip' sh3d with an unzipper
[23:18] <MonkeyDust> then yolu know
[23:18] <MonkeyDust> you*
[23:18] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: look'n at your  http://paste.ubuntu.com/13909145/ .
[23:18] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, yes I can unzip it? What's your point?
[23:19] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  you want to use sweethome3d as an unzipper, is what i understand
[23:20] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, no, I would like register sh3d only. the problem is I think sh3d files would not have a uniwue mime-type for sweethome3d files
[23:20] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Uh huh " /dev/sda6       239M  232M     0 100% /boot " . At 100% capacity .. might get dirty to fix, but try ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' . See if there is the operating headromm for "apt" to operate in .
[23:21] <titan914> What software/set of softwares would y'all recommend that is similar to Active Directory and file ACLs?
[23:21] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  you lost me, you just said that sweethome3d can open sh3d files, i don't see the problem
[23:21] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: Any way to remove old kernels?
[23:22] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, when I cdouble click on a sh3d file it ignites an unzipper not sweethome3d
[23:22] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Yeah several ways to remove the kernels, try ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' in a stable system will also remove the old kernels .
[23:22] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  ok, you didnt say that
[23:23] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, I thought that's what registering is for
[23:23] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, sorry
[23:23] <kingplusplus> anyone noticed this i can’t cd to ngnix cd: /var/log/nginx/: Permission denied
[23:23] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  and can you not open the properties and 'open with'?
[23:24] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: looks like it's working. Asit does it's adjusting the boot images as well. Hoping it keeps my dual boot functional :-0
[23:24] <Trigraph> TJ-: how does one go about debugging these shutdown issues ? there seems to be no logging that is done during shutdown
[23:24] <yumbox> kingplusplus: you dont have permissions to view the directory
[23:24] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: Here is what it ended on: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13909320/
[23:25] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, I can. BUt if I do that, all zip files, besides sh3d files will be opened by sweethome3d
[23:25] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: look'n .
[23:26] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  really? that's odd... i don't have sweethome3d installed right now, or i would test it
[23:27] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, well I did not try this time. When I tried couple years ago, it was like that
[23:27] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  years ago... that's eternity
[23:27] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Sorta expected that . OK, what now ' df -h ' we get any operating head room ? then we see what can be done about linux-image-extra-3.19.0-15-generic .
[23:27] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, OK, I'll try
[23:27] <Nyterax> is it possible to fall back from 15.10 to 14.04 without losing data?
[23:27] <TJ-> Trigraph: sorry, I was away a while. That "!Windows 2012" usually means disable the built-in firmware vendor string. You don't want the !
[23:27] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  one year is eternity in computing
[23:28] <Trigraph> Ah okay let me try without the exclamation mark
[23:29] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13909423/
[23:30] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, agreed. However when I open properties of a sh3d file, and switch to open with tab. I see this message at the top: Select an application to open MyDesign.sh3d and othe rfiles of type "Zip Archive"
[23:30] <MrKeuner> Kind of supports my suspicion, don't you think?
[23:31] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Yeaj, look'n good .. now ' dpkg -l | grep linux- '.. let's insure the meta packages are installed and  then try and install the current kernel .
[23:31] <MrKeuner> Plus, SweetHome3d is not among those options...
[23:31] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13909496/
[23:31] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: look'n
[23:32] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  take the properties and then 'open with'... is sweethome3d in the list?
[23:32] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, is my English that bad?
[23:32] <MrKeuner> no it is not in that list
[23:33] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Ouch .. gemme a bit to look this over, see what we are going to do .
[23:33] <MonkeyDust> MrKeuner  ok, put your question, with what you know now, in one line and repeat it every 15 minutes or so... hope you find a way
[23:34] <MrKeuner> MonkeyDust, thanks for trying
[23:36] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Does not look too bad. What kernel are you presently booting ' uname -r ' ? as we do not want to mess with this one !

[23:47] <gilbertus> how do I know if any of my hardware is using virtualbox?
[23:47] <gilbertus> it's preventing me from installing a new kerenl.
[23:47] <gilbertus> *kernel
[23:49] <BlackFate> gilbertus, do a dmesg | grep -i virtual
[23:49] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: look'n .
[23:50] <BlackFate> gilbertus, actually maybe I didn't get your question. YOu mean how do you know that you have virtualbox installed? or if ubuntu runs on a virtualbox instance?
[23:50] <gilbertus> [    0.000000] Booting paravirtualized kernel on bare hardware

[23:51] <gilbertus> well it says I have to remove virtualbox before installing the newer kernel
[23:51] <gilbertus> Preparing to install an upstream kernel
[23:51] <gilbertus> First, if one is using select proprietary or out-of-tree modules (ex. vitualbox, nvidia, fglrx, bcmwl, etc.)
[23:51] <gilbertus> I'm also using fglrx
[23:51] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Outstanding , OK ' sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-generic linux-signed-generic ' . Then we see if we can purge that pesky 3.19.0-15 kernel .
[23:52] <gilbertus> Bashing-om, I'm also using 3.19
[23:52] <gilbertus> and trying to upgrade
[23:53] <Bashing-om> gilbertus: K, hang on a bit .. I get confused to easily working same sitatuation with 2 different peeps . I expect bjrohan not to take much longer .
[23:53] <gilbertus> ok
[23:53] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: no problem at all
[23:55] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: Try now ' dpkg -P linux-image-3.19.0-15-generic linux-image-extra-3.19.0-15-generic ' still is -25 and -26 to deal with .
[23:56] <Trigraph> TJ-: still stuck at "Will now Restart", i remove the !
[23:56] <bjrohan> Bashing-om:  done
[23:56] <Trigraph> also experimented with apm=noirq did not make any difference
[23:57] <Trigraph> i meant i tried with acpi=noirq and apm=off too
[23:58] <Trigraph> TJ: what do you recommend me to try next ?
[23:58] <TJ-> Trigraph: right; it's hard to know unless you take a deep-dive into the Windows platform drivers for that mobo
[23:58] <Trigraph> ah okay
[23:58] <Trigraph> i am hoping this is not due to some service stuck during shutdown
[23:58] <Bashing-om> bjrohan: ' sudo dpkg -P linux-image-3.19.0-25-generic linux-signed-image-3.19.0-25-generic ' .
[23:58] <Trigraph> or some kind of cyclic shutdown dependency etc
[23:58] <TJ-> Trigraph: there's obviously some bug, and the windows driver works around it, or calls some 'special' (read "non-specification") method
[23:59] <TJ-> Trigraph: you could try manually unloading as many kernel modules as possible before trying to shutdown, with no GUI running, in case one is holding onto a lock
[23:59] <bjrohan> Bashing-om: done
