[00:00] <OerHeks> isoboot  is only possible with an existing grub
[00:00] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> Just bear in mind that, in order to keep your /home, your best bet may be just to back up your /home files manually
[00:00] <semitones-reinst> OerHeks: I have that :) I'm on a Ubuntu 14.04 now. Will it keep my boot entries safe?
[00:01] <Bashing-om> semitones-reinst: Honestly, last time I attempted a ISOboot install, I was not able to fugure out a "good" means to unmount the present root partition .
[00:03] <OerHeks> depends, what you do. it could be handy to use as a live iso, as backup to restore your original zfs ubuntu install from snapshot
[00:03] <semitones-reinst> What does 'the system' refer to here? If stored on a partition with a different format than the system, the filesystem's module (ntfs, reiserfs, etc) may need to be included in the menuentry for GRUB to be able to access the file.
[00:05] <OerHeks> in dummie language, if you don't use fat32, ..
[00:05] <bazhang> semitones-reinst, whatever system is in use
[00:05] <semitones-reinst> bazhang: grub2?
[00:05] <OerHeks> no, the iso
[00:06] <bazhang> semitones-reinst, if its ubuntu, then whatever system is IN USE
[00:06] <bazheng> lol
[00:08] <semitones-reinst> bazhang: so when grub boots the iso, it cares about what filesystem my current ubuntu has, and wants to make sure that the iso is the same filesystem as the current ubuntu? That doesn'tseem to make sense...
[00:09] <semitones-reinst> bazhang: because right now, my /boot is on ext2, and my / is ext4
[00:10] <vinny> hi. I have an issue that I have been debugging for a while now. I have an embedded system connected to my host machine (running ubuntu 16.04 LTS). The embedded system is running linux as well.
[00:11] <meh> this is my rules  file
[00:11] <meh> http://gpaste.us/78b95084
[00:11] <vinny> when the embedded system boots up, I am able to see the output on my host machine. When I try to write to the console of the embedded system, I does not show on the console
[00:13] <vinny> I am added to the dialout group and I changed my rule file to disable modem manager to access the devices. to
[00:13] <vinny> I also set the necessary permissions
[00:13] <vinny> however, I am uncertain why the console does not accept my input
[00:15] <vinny> meh: I went through your rule file. Is there something in particular I need to look for?
[00:16] <bazheng> vinny, redirection issues?
[00:17] <vinny> hm...
[00:17] <vinny> I also checked using wireshark, the port is sending packets when I type to the console
[00:18] <vinny> I did not verify the contents of the packet however (e.g. if they are valid)
[00:19] <danmulvey> hey all! so I'm currently running 15.04 and I figure I should start doing a better job of running an up to date system. what is the best way to bring my machine up to the current release (preferably without having to do a fresh install)? thanks!
[00:19] <Ben64> danmulvey: EOL upgrade to 15.10, then upgrade again to 16.04
[00:19] <metroins> Hi, I am trying to figure out how to save space on my HD.  .encrypt is taking a lot of space as well as another folder:  http://imgur.com/07wLMZK
[00:19] <elefanto> hey, i got a problem, under ubuntu 16.04 i can't read some dvds, can't see them listed in /dev or in my file explorer neither can't vlc play it, tried to install codecs and still no go :(
[00:20] <metroins> Can somebody help me with this?
[00:20] <elefanto> the specific dvd is batman the dark knight
[00:20] <vinny> elefanto: if it's encrypted I read that you need to install a package in 16.04
[00:21] <vinny> bazheng: any ideas?
[00:21] <danmulvey> Ben64: cool thanks, i wasnt sure if i needed to do it that way or if i could just jump over the in between releases. gonna give it a shot once I get done at work, thanks again!
[00:22] <elefanto> @vinny i installed libdvd-pkg, it still doesn't work
[00:22] <bazheng> vinny, it looks like redirection issues (ie the stdout of the guest may be set to you host) - but Im not 100% sure
[00:23] <vinny> bazheng: how can I verify this?
[00:23] <vinny> elefanto: I think that's the default dvd package.
[00:24] <Bashing-om> metroins: Pastebin the terminal command outputs of ' df -h ' and change directoty to '/', 'cd /' amd post ' sudo du -sx * | sort -n ' .
[00:24] <bazheng> vinny, the invisible stuff you type on console: youre refering to the console from host?
[00:24] <elefanto> do i need more, if so, do you maybe know which packages? :D
[00:25] <bazheng> elefanto, can you mount the DVD and watch the videos from files on the video folder?
[00:26] <vinny> elefanto: there are restricted-extras I think
[00:26] <elefanto> @bazheng no, i can't
[00:27] <metroins> Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/xv5AdMp3
[00:27] <vinny> bazheng: when I type to the console from my host, this console is connected to the embedded system, the console does not receive any input from my host
[00:27] <vinny> but the console display the output from the embedded system.
[00:27] <bazheng> elefanto, so its more likely to be a media issue...
[00:27] <bazheng> imho
[00:28] <bazheng> vinny, ok.... thats pretty sticky :)
[00:28] <elefanto> don't know i'll try some other dvds, but that exact same disc worked on my dvd player
[00:28] <bazheng> lol
[00:29] <vinny> lol
[00:29] <vinny> bazheng: any ideas?
[00:30] <bazheng> vinny, whats the term? I would try messing w/ term options (echos and redirection)..
[00:30] <vinny> I''m using kermit
[00:30] <bazheng> vinny, canonical non canonical inputs, and so on - dunno kermit
[00:30] <vinny> bazheng: what do you use?
[00:31] <vinny> and is there an echo/redirection option?
[00:31] <vinny> I also tried minicom.
[00:31] <bazheng> vinny Im rxvt
[00:31] <vinny> but minicom is built on kermit... so...
[00:32] <bazheng> vinny a "kemit --help" may do
[00:32] <gsker> vinny: if you're graphical, also try cutecom. It has some more easily accessible options than minicom
[00:32] <elefanto> alright tried another dvd and it worked so it seems like a media issue, thnk all of you guys, kudos and best of all vibes to you
[00:33] <vinny> ok I will try cutecom
[00:33] <vinny> and rxvt
[00:34] <vinny> I'll post my resutls
[00:34] <vinny> results
[00:34] <bazheng> cya guys

[00:53] <Bashing-om> metroins: We need to find out why ' autoremove ' did not remove that bunch of old kernels . Getting rid of them will free up a lot of space too .
[00:55] <metroins> Bashing-om: Ok.  I do not know the answer to that.
[00:56] <Bashing-om> metroins: as a start we have " 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 5 to remove and 14 not upgraded. " one of those 14 the kernel ? .. do: ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-ypgrade ' . See what gets installed .

[01:46] <user__> Hi
[01:46] <user__> I need urgent help with my printer
[01:46] <Bashing-om> metroins: 'cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades ; apt-mark showauto ^linux-image- ' .
[01:46] <user__> canon LBC  who have great knowlage about it
[01:47] <Welkin> how can you send the googles to your printer?
[01:47] <SonikkuAmerica> nealshire: What's mapped to /dev/loop0 ?
[01:47] <SonikkuAmerica> nealshire: Perhaps a USB device?
[01:47] <Welkin> (couldn't help it :P)
[01:47] <nealshire> SonikkuAmerica, don't know how to find that out. just keeps asking for a password
[01:48] <SonikkuAmerica> nealshire: Are you unable to log in?
[01:48] <monoubuntu> i have a problem with fucking ubuntu and USB WIFI Adapter
[01:48] <SonikkuAmerica> !language | monoubuntu
[01:48] <nealshire> SonikkuAmerica, yes.
[01:48] <SonikkuAmerica> nealshire:  Why? Is your password not being accepted?
[01:48] <metroins> Bashing-om: http://pastebin.com/EjyjSgA6
[01:48] <monoubuntu> languaje??? spanish
[01:48] <nealshire> I never set a password, this is a first install
[01:49] <SonikkuAmerica> nealshire: So this is the Live image?
[01:49] <nealshire> yes
[01:49] <user__> it stopped working some time ago, I retied reinstall drivers and all look op, but the captstatusui -P LBP2900 continue say communication error
[01:49] <SonikkuAmerica> nealshire: What !flavour is this?
[01:49] <user__> I really dont know what to do to fix it
[01:49] <Bashing-om> nealshire: Try; ' sudo touch /forcefsck ; sudo reboot now ' . when the system comes back up will do a file system check . could get deeper yet .
[01:49] <SonikkuAmerica> Bashing-om: He's stuck at the login for tty
[01:49] <user__> I believe it stopped working  while a general update
[01:50] <user__> I did follow all guides i could find....
[01:50] <Welkin> hahahaha
[01:50] <Welkin> did that monoubuntu person even speak english?
[01:51] <nealshire> SonikkuAmerica, it was the default one.. can't recall which since it isn't in the filename
[01:52] <nealshirelaptop> ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
[01:52] <SonikkuAmerica> nealshirelaptop: OK... user name is ubuntu - there is no password.
[01:52] <SonikkuAmerica> then run the commands that Bashing-om suggested above.
[01:53] <user__> is it possible some of your senior users can gain access to my machine and try solve my problem
[01:53] <nealshirelaptop> just spits errors at me and says login incorrect =/
[01:53] <Bashing-om> SonikkuAmerica: The error is a file system problem . reboot and run a file system check/repair . Once the file system is stanle one can proceed with starting the GUI .
[01:54] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> user__: that's a really bad idea
[01:54] <user__> but I need some solution
[01:54] <user__> I did post on ask ubunu no reply from any
[01:54] <SonikkuAmerica> Bashing-om: Right. But first we have to get him logged into the TTY so he can run the Live image again.
[01:55] <gezellig> okay so I have a directory and I want to delete it but its full of a bunch of other empty directories
[01:55] <gezellig> except when I rm -r it says "Directory not empty"
[01:55] <nealshirelaptop> I'm hoping it was a live image.. I wrote the iso to my 4gb cruzr blade with "universal usb installer". has worked fine that way for linux mint
[01:55] <gezellig> for every directory inside
[01:55] <gezellig> even though they are all empty
[01:55] <gezellig> any ideas?
[01:56] <gezellig> im also getting permission denied even though I am logged in as root
[01:56] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> user__: I'm not really capable of fixing your problem but my best advice would be to get an HP printer
[01:57] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> user__: because HP actively supports FOSS :)
[01:57] <nealshirelaptop> ran a filesystem check, found 2 errors. put me back on the login screen after rebooting >_<
[01:57] <nealshirelaptop> brother printers also have support
[01:57] <user__> but it worked for 2 years without trouble
[01:58] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> nealshirelaptop: sure, I've just had really good luck with hp. AND someone who agrees to fix your computer over the internet could do your system a great deal of harm
[01:58] <user__> alternative I need reinstall ubuntu
[01:59] <user__> will any give it a try
[01:59] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> you could try reinstalling ubuntu
[01:59] <user__> or can some give me a extended guide
[01:59] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> or uninstalling then reinstalling the printer
[02:00] <user__> or possible ways to do
[02:00] <gezellig> anybody?
[02:00] <user__> yes did uninstall and reinstall
[02:00] <gezellig> I have 95 folders I can't delete
[02:00] <gezellig> I just can't delete them in any way
[02:00] <Ben64> gezellig: rm -fr folder
[02:00] <nealshirelaptop> Bashing-om, does the filesystem check on the setup screen actually fix errors or does it only tell you they exist?
[02:01] <gezellig> Ben64, it says directory not empty...
[02:01] <meh> i have another trouble with my package
[02:01] <meh> it says
[02:01] <gezellig> also permission denied on a lot of them even though I'm logged in as root
[02:01] <meh> dpkg-checkbuilddeps: fallo: Unmet build dependencies: gcc-4.8 | clang-3.5 | clang-3.4 g++-4.8 | clang-3.5 | clang-3.4
[02:02] <user__> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2324327
[02:02] <Ben64> gezellig: then you're doing something wrong, pastebin the full command and output
[02:02] <tn> hello
[02:02] <user__> try see the link
[02:03] <WoodyPC> gezellig: In Terminal, I use sudo rm -r OR rm -fr ./Directory name to do this.
[02:03] <user__> can I get some suggestions what to do
[02:03] <tn> does anyone know why when i run the konqueror web browser the konqueror home page has missing icons for Home Folder, Trash, Network Folders and Bookmarks
[02:03] <tn> this is Ubuntu 16.04 with KDE 5.5
[02:03] <gezellig> WoodyPC, I'm logged in as root but it still says permission denied
[02:04] <gezellig> with both of those commands
[02:04] <gezellig> also logged in as a user with sudo
[02:04] <gezellig> and some folders give no error but they're still there...
[02:04] <Bashing-om> nealshirelaptop: it tries to fix simple errors . If you can not login on TTY1, try and boot a recovery kernel ' there is an option on this menu to repair the system .
[02:06] <nealshirelaptop> Bashing-om, I think I'll just try rewriting it.
[02:06] <Bashing-om> metroins: and .. for ' apt-mark showauto ^linux-image- ' ? still seeking to learn why autoremove is not removing the old kernels .
[02:07] <metroins> Bashing-om: nothing happened
[02:09] <Bashing-om> metroins: K .. on my system if I were to execute 'aitoremove" these : http://paste.ubuntu.com/16401299/ would be removed .
[02:09] <metroins> sudo apt-get autoremove
[02:09] <metroins> oops
[02:09] <WoodyPC> gezellig: Have you tried to type it this way: sudo rm -r OR rm -fr .directory name? without the slash..?
[02:10] <dreamaddict> does anyone know why "qmlplugindump" would crash?
[02:10] <gezellig> yes WoodyPC
[02:10] <gezellig> its not hidden
[02:10] <krismatrix> Question...when it comes to man page instructions...what is the difference between options and commands?
[02:10] <Bashing-om> metroins: and .. it removes now a whole bunch of old kernels ?
[02:11] <WoodyPC> gezellig: Just curious, but, Are you inside the directory when you are trying to delete it?
[02:11] <dreamaddict> I tried to make a "Qt Quick Controls application" in Qt Creator, and "qmlplugindump" crashed
[02:11] <metroins> Bashing-om: Nope.  still nada.
[02:11] <snowie> Hi all. 16.04 having trouble with file associations. blender, official repo install. Can see in blender.desktop that exec is set to blender %f but it doesn't show up in nautilus default application list. defaults.list is also missing any reference to blender. should i just add it there? if so, how?
[02:12] <Bashing-om> krismatrix: a command has switches , think of those switches as options that operate on the command .
[02:12] <WoodyPC> gezellig: I know it sounds crazy, but I have actually done it.
[02:12] <user_> HI Who can help with canon LBP printer problem? after installing the  captstatusui -P LBP2900 sat communication problem
[02:13] <krismatrix> Bashing-om: You are using both command and option to refer to commands...this is the thing that I find confusing....
[02:13] <krismatrix> here...let me share an example.
[02:13] <krismatrix>  gpg [--homedir dir] [--options file] [options] command [args]
[02:13] <gezellig> sorry I had to restart. I'm back now
[02:13] <krismatrix> In this example...there are options AND command...which I assume are different things.
[02:13] <krismatrix> I am trying to understand the difference between these two.
[02:14] <Bashing-om> metroins: Though we can invoke the package manager to remove the kernels . I would like to learn why 'autoremove' is not working . does 'ls -al /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal ' exist ?
[02:14] <metroins> Bashing-om: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2824 Apr 10  2014 /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal
[02:16] <gezellig> okay so hypothetical folder name music
[02:16] <gezellig> rm -r ./music
[02:16] <gezellig> rm -fr music
[02:17] <gezellig> what else should I try
[02:19] <Jordan_U> gezellig: Please padtebin the contents of /proc/mounts.
[02:20] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: in this context an option modifies how the command is performed. The command is the function which the program should execute
[02:21] <meh> i have a small issue with a compilation
[02:21] <meh> the rules file  causes an error
[02:21] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: for example, the program apt-get can perform several actions: update, upgrade, install, etc
[02:21] <meh> https://paste.ubuntu.com/16401366/
[02:21] <krismatrix> ok..
[02:21] <meh> and the strange result
[02:21] <meh> https://paste.ubuntu.com/16401360/
[02:21] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: so 'apt-get -y install build-essential'
[02:22] <krismatrix> so..apt-get is a command...and update...upgrade are options?
[02:22] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: install is the command
[02:22] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> apt-get is the program
[02:22] <krismatrix> I always thought that options are the one that start with a "-" or "--"
[02:22] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> not necessarily
[02:22] <SonikkuAmerica> ac1dh0n3ycl0ud: NEVER INSTRUCT ANYONE TO USE THE -y SWITCH WITH apt-get !
[02:22] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> sonnikkuamerica: I didn't
[02:22] <gtkm90> how i install frebsd in my pc?
 krismatrix: so 'apt-get -y install build-essential' << you didn't?
[02:23] <cfhowlett> gtkm90, this is ubuntu not bsd support. wrong channel.
[02:23] <snowie> Well, adding "application/blend=blender.desktop" in defualts.list didn't seem to work either
[02:23] <SonikkuAmerica> gtkm90: #freebsd could help you with that.
[02:23] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> SonikkuAmerica: No, I didn't. I used this as an example of a command line option
[02:23] <SonikkuAmerica> ac1dh0n3ycl0ud: Oh.
[02:23] <SonikkuAmerica> Carry on.
[02:23] <SonikkuAmerica> But keep that in mind :)
[02:24] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> SonikkuAmerica: Sure.
[02:24] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> Although I use -y *all* the time :P
[02:24] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> I like to live dangerously....
[02:24] <krismatrix> ok..
[02:24] <gtkm90> i want to join in group bsd, what i to do ?
[02:24] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: So the 'command' in this context is the operation which you're instructing the program to carry out
[02:25] <krismatrix> ok...
[02:25] <krismatrix> so let's says I am doing the following.
[02:25] <krismatrix> gpg --export --armor 12345678 > funny.asc
[02:25] <krismatrix> which would be the option...program and command? if they are all there.
[02:26] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> The program is gpg. Sometimes this is referred to as a command because a 'program' can be a 'command'
[02:26] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> The options are --armor 12345678
[02:26] <krismatrix> is ls a command or program?
[02:27] <Bashing-om> metroins: Think this is what you have ; see : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels#Automatic_Maintenance .
[02:27] <SonikkuAmerica> krismatrix: [ ls ] is a binary executable
[02:27] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> and the command is 'export' because the program is being told to do an export
[02:27] <dreamaddict> Greetings, fellow Ubuntites!  In an attempt to learn Qt Creator, I am following a tutorial where I make a "Qt Quick Controls Application".  When I attempt to do so, the project creates with many qml errors, including "qmlplugindump crashed"
[02:27] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> ls is a program
[02:27] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> dreamaddict: join #qt
[02:27] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> dreamaddict: ask them, they're nice
[02:27] <dreamaddict> ahh ok, it was erroring on Ubuntu components
[02:28] <dreamaddict> wasn't sure where the line is on this one, thank you
[02:28] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> dreamaddict: they're just more likely to know the answer from what I can tell
[02:28] <dreamaddict> again, thank you :)
[02:28] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> :)
[02:28] <metroins> Bashing-om: that would make sense, I don't know which ones to remove manually though.
[02:29] <xdevnull> https://github.com/lagbox/asklagbox/issues/1 O_O?
[02:29] <snowie> anyone have any idea when i install blender from the official repositories the file associations don't work? Have tried many online fixes for the same problem when you install from blenders website but no joy.
[02:29] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: that's just the semantics used by the man pages in general. You can say that 'ls' is a command because it is something you can tell the computer to do
[02:29] <cfhowlett> snowie, installed from the blender site?  why?  It's in the repos.
[02:30] <xdevnull> Wrong chat
[02:30] <xdevnull> ops
[02:30] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: you can also say that all 'commands' given as arguments to a program are options...
[02:30] <telboon> hi. FYI -- my network manager just died due to the latest update on 14.04. For some reason my libnl was 'upgraded' to libnl-3.2.21-ubuntu1. This caused network manager to crash after reboot. trusty-proposed was NOT turned on
[02:30] <cfhowlett> snowie, more to the point, does it work?  launch from command line
[02:30] <snowie> I have installed blender from the official ubuntu repos, but the file associations are missint
[02:30] <telboon> i managed to 'downgrade' mylibnl. but not sure why a buggy release of libnl was in main depository
[02:30] <krismatrix> ok...i guess what I am trying to understand is, the order of syntax that I should be doing.
[02:30] <snowie> ie, when i double click a .blend file, it searches for a program. If i right click and choose open with, blender is not in the list of applications.
[02:30] <krismatrix> For example...gpg has the syntax format:
[02:30] <krismatrix> gpg [--homedir dir] [--options file] [options] command [args]
[02:31] <krismatrix> now it appears to do different things when I do:
[02:31] <krismatrix> gpg --export 12345678 --armor > funny.asc
[02:31] <krismatrix> versus
[02:31] <snowie> blender does appear when i search in the dash
[02:31] <krismatrix> gpg --export --armor 12345678 > funny,asc
[02:31] <cfhowlett> snowie, right click on the .blend, go into properties and set the "open with" option to blender
[02:31] <krismatrix> typo funny,asc is funny.asc
[02:31] <snowie> ie, when i double click a .blend file, it searches for a program. If i right click and choose open with, blender is not in the list of applications.
[02:32] <snowie> cfhowlett: it's not in the list, i think that's the gap.
[02:33] <cfhowlett> snowie, open with "other applications"
[02:33] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: The order will vary depending on the program. A lot of times it doesn't matter--for example I can use 'apt-get -y install <package>' and 'apt-get install -y <package>' interchangably
[02:34] <snowie> cfhowlett: yes, in that list, i see everything from libreoffice ot openjdk, but no blender
[02:34] <cfhowlett> snowie, does blender start from the command line?
[02:34] <krismatrix> ok.
[02:35] <krismatrix> So basically...try a few different version until it works?
[02:35] <snowie> yep, $ blender works perfectly
[02:35] <krismatrix> That was not what I was hoping to hear...but ok.
[02:35] <cfhowlett> snowie, bad loop.  I can only suggest purging blender then reinstalling
[02:35] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: the man page says 'Commands are not distinguished from options except for the fact that only one command is allowed.'
[02:36] <snowie> cfhowlett: yep, uninstall, restart, reinstall even, no dice.
[02:36] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: '...option as well as command parsing stops as soon as a non-option is encountered'
[02:36] <krismatrix> hmm...
[02:37] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: so I'm guessing '12345678 --armor' doesn't give you ascii-armored output?
[02:37] <krismatrix> so that is saying that I should have all options FIRST before writing anything that is not an option.
[02:37] <krismatrix> In other words:
[02:37] <snowie> cfhowlett: wait, apt purge is different right? let me try that. brb
[02:37] <krismatrix> gpg --export --armor 12345678 > funny.asc is the correct version
[02:37] <krismatrix> where everythign after armor is a non-option.
[02:37] <cfhowlett> it is indeed different.  sudo apt-get purge blender
[02:37] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: exactly.
[02:38] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> krismatrix: although
[02:38] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> I believe that --export is a command
[02:39] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> it's listed under the commands section of the man page... so I'd --armor --export 12345678
[02:40] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> But sometimes the best way to figure out the right way is, in fact, experimentation
[02:40] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> GPG has a rather confusing and ambiguous man page...
[02:41] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> But you'd probably have good luck researching the correct usage via a well-formed google search
[02:41] <snowie> cfhowlett: still no luck.
[02:43] <cfhowlett> snowie, you are on 16.04?
[02:43] <krismatrix> i do google. But people criticize me for doing things without understanding what they do...so I am making an effort.
[02:43] <cfhowlett> krismatrix, holy ... !  that is the smartest statement I have seen anyone make here in a LONG while!
[02:43] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> Well that's fair criticism, I suppose but either way you're learning.
[02:43] <snowie> cfhowlett: yep. one sec, i think i may have it.
[02:44] <krismatrix> Right.
[02:44] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> poor user_ couldn't get anyone to remote into their machine and fix their problem for them....
[02:45] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> I should've recommended buying into RHL
[02:45] <ac1dh0n3ycl0ud> Or I could've rooted their box, I guess...
[02:46] <snowie> cfhowlett: ok, so i have edited defaults.list and now i get a different error at least.
[02:46] <Bashing-om> metroins: Sorry, way from the keyboard. .. in the file " /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades ' is the line - //Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies "false"; - as directed, remove the comment characters '//' and change flase to true . save the file . we must 1st execute the terminal command ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades ' . See the Automatic Maintenance section  of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentat
[02:46] <cfhowlett> snowie, I have to step out.  You might want to check with Blender support.
[02:47] <snowie> Hi all. the answer was to add the application to defaults.list "application/x-blender=blender.desktop". where does this bug reside, apt? ubuntu?
[02:53] <SonikkuAmerica> snowie: Not sure, but [ xdg-mime default blender.desktop application/x-blender ] should fix it :)
[02:55] <metroins> Bashing-om: Thank you for your help; I will follow the steps in a minute
[02:55] <snowie> SonikkuAmerica: yeah. just surprised it's not there and would like to log it. if i log it under ubuntu they can close etc i guess.
[02:56] <SonikkuAmerica> They might notice...
[03:02] <Bashing-om> metroins: K .. still researching . we also need to look at ' /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove ' .
[03:03] <metroins> Bashing-om: I have followed the steps and edited 50unattended-upgrades to true.  Do I need to run a command after I've edited the file?  The steps say: Thereafter, system should remove old automatically installed kernels and packages associated to them - automatically. It does not purge then, however.
[03:04] <Bashing-om> metroins: hreat . see my last .. and have you also run terminal command ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades ' .
[03:05] <metroins> Bashing-om: I followed that step as well
[03:05] <nick_name_123451> Which version of ubuntu added python 3?
[03:06] <Bashing-om> metroins: Good . then ' cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove ' let's make sure the kernels are not included in that list .
[03:06] <OerHeks> nick_name_123451, longer than the longest current ubuntu
[03:07] <nick_name_123451> OerHeks, What do you mean by that?
[03:07] <OerHeks> nick_name_123451, why, homework?
[03:08] <nick_name_123451> OerHeks, no it is for solving a problem with a python program somebody else is running
[03:09] <nick_name_123451> OerHeks, running the command python3 will launch a python program under python version 3 and I need to know which versions of ubuntu started including the command
[03:18] <az> hi, when ever I start my pc I've to open pavucontrol and switch from speakers to headphone to be able to hear voice from PC speaker. weird issue
[03:19] <metroins> Bashing-om: Thank you for your help; I'm about to throw the computer out the window because my audio isn't matching in KDenlive for some reason and I need to go to bed before I get angry.
[03:19] <metroins> Bashing-om: Have a great night.
[03:41] <abhishek> hi I just installed 16.04
[03:41] <Rakko> How can I determine if the running kernel was compiled with a certain option? I'm looking for CONFIG_UFS_FS_WRITE
[03:42] <abhishek> But my wifi is not working
[03:42] <abhishek> at times it doesn't detect it and at other times it connects to it but internet doesn't work
[03:42] <abhishek> is this a driver issue?
[03:43] <abhishek> http://www.hpshopping.in/HP_Pavilion_Notebook_-_15-ab549tx
[03:43] <thunderkey> abhishek, do you have an ability to plug in an ethernet cable to it?
[03:44] <thunderkey> abhishek, i am using a dell vostro 1510, but ran into a problem with the onboard intel wifi adapter.
[03:44] <thunderkey> abhishek, after i plugged it into a hardline, i went to the proprietary drivers list and installed the one that was listed.
[03:45] <abhishek> thunderkey, yes I can plug a cable!
[03:45] <abhishek> thunderkey, okay where the proprietary drivers list, I am using kubuntu
[03:47] <thunderkey> abhishek, go to 'system settings', 'software and updates', 'additional drivers' and let it populate if one is available.
[03:50] <thunderkey> abhishek, any luck?
[03:50] <dreamaddict> apparently qmldumpplugins is broken
[03:50] <dreamaddict> I mean "qmlplugindump"
[03:51]  * thunderkey is away: Fighting away the chickens.
[03:52]  * thunderkey is back (gone 00:01:01)
[03:52] <abhishek> thunderkey, is not software and updates option maybe because I am using kde 5.5 https://www.google.co.in/search?client=ubuntu&espv=2&biw=848&bih=475&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=kde+plasma+5+system+setting&oq=kde+plasma+5+system+setting&gs_l=img.3...4529.6826.0.7<IP_ADDRESS>.<IP_ADDRESS>.872.0j5.5.0....0...1c.1.64.img..3.0.0.IKhQSQzCuO0#imgrc=D-7rUFZEa4TYfM%3A
[03:52] <abhishek> oh sry for the long link
[03:53] <abhishek> but there is option of driver management software
[03:53] <thunderkey> abhishek, no problem with the link.  yeah try 'driver management' at the bottom.  i don't have any "real" experience with the kde desktop
[03:57] <abhishek> thunderkey, sum1 at the kubuntu told me it's broken. Any other ways?
[03:57] <thunderkey> abhishek, hmmm, let me try something on my end.  thanks for the specs on your laptop, that will help.

[04:02] <crodjer> Hi, in my 14.04 LTS, my NetworkManager seems to not work, so I am trying to use `ip` to connect. How do I configure the dns? I can reach IPs but cant resolve hostnames.
[04:04] <thunderkey> abhishek, try this in terminal.  --------  1) sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hanipouspilot/rtlwifi   2)sudo apt-get update    3)sudo apt-get install rtlwifi-new-dkms linux-firmware
[04:04] <thunderkey> abhishek, after that is done, reboot and see if that fixes your problem
[04:05] <abhishek> thunderkey, sum1 recommended to me this http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-trusty-realtek.html, which is better?
[04:06] <thunderkey> both are using the realtek drivers, so it is up to you.
[04:07] <Bashing-om> crodjer: If you are a victim of updates : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1539634 , then this is the easier fix : http://askubuntu.com/questions/771627/14-04-network-manager-stopped-working/771841#771841 .
[04:07] <thunderkey> abhishek, i will be on for a while, so if you don't mind, let me know if it worked and which option you chose.  thx :)
[04:08] <abhishek> thunderkey, thanks I will reboot right now and update. I am trying what you said before.
[04:08] <thunderkey> abhishek, k -- good luck
[04:10] <love3> Hey everyone
[04:12] <crodjer> Bashing-om: Oh, thanks. I'll try that. I think I have the same problem.
[04:14] <Bashing-om> crodjer: Thus far .. that is the easier solution I am aware of .
[04:15] <Bashing-om> crodjer: ^ however, uf you are handy, one can manually install the new network-manager package: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/<IP_ADDRESS>-0ubuntu7.3 .
[04:19] <crodjer> Bashing-om: Yeah, I was playing with `ip` command to get things working temporarily for upgrade. It is upgrading in recovery mode.
[04:22] <crodjer> Worked.
[04:24] <abhishek> thunderkey, works fine now! thanks!
[04:24] <thunderkey> abhishek, thats great.  glad i could be of service ;)

[05:07] <Osirus126> Whats up
[05:07] <hadleigh> hello
[05:08] <hadleigh> just got rid of mint cause i updated to 17.3 rosa and lost sound now have unbuntu and still the same problem
[05:10] <hadleigh> any ideas as to how i can get my sound back
[05:11] <Osirus126> Maybe it has something to do with your sound card.. Most times the sound will work straight out of the box with ubuntu
[05:11] <Osirus126> Have you checkex
[05:11] <Osirus126> Checked all connections
[05:11] <hadleigh> no the tower is only 2 months old
[05:11] <Osirus126> And made sure your card is rscognised
[05:13] <hadleigh> :P
[05:13] <Osirus126> Go to terminal and do a 'sudo lspci | grep media'
[05:14] <hadleigh> just went into sound settings and turn up the alert volume up and now i have full sound
[05:14] <Osirus126> Or if that doesnt work or show Nythi
[05:14] <abhishek> hi
[05:14] <Osirus126> Anything
[05:14] <hadleigh> i have all sound
[05:14] <abhishek> I have a question: http://codepad.org/mUcZXLmc
[05:14] <fourcolors> I feel like there is 0 support for gnome3 in Ubuntu :(
[05:14] <fourcolors> I'm thinking of going back to arch
[05:15] <tgm4883> fourcolors: ok
[05:15] <fourcolors> super annoying
[05:15] <seiten> yo yo
[05:15] <Osirus126> Or try sudo lspci alone and look through devices for something along the lines of multimedia
[05:15] <seiten> i need help ppl
[05:15] <abhishek> fourcolors, kubuntu 16.04 is stable, if you like kde. :)
[05:16] <abhishek> support is great too.
[05:16] <fourcolors> I really like gnome 3 ... just a few things are broken in Ubuntu and I'm not sure why. For instance, I can't get my profile photo to change
[05:16] <tgm4883> abhishek: it's disabled because it contains closed source and/or propriatary software
[05:16] <tgm4883> !gnome
[05:16] <tgm4883> !ubuntu-gnome | fourcolors
[05:17] <tgm4883> you might try asking in there if you don't get any help here
[05:17] <fourcolors> Ok, Ill check out their fourm
[05:17] <Osirus126> Hadleigh, well that was easy enough
[05:17] <hadleigh> it was very easy
[05:21] <LuckArkman> good night
[05:22] <fourcolors> where are hard drives mounted in ubuntu?
[05:22] <fourcolors> like I have a second hard drive
[05:22] <fourcolors> I can't find it under media or mnt
[05:22] <tgm4883> fourcolors: well you have to mount it somewhere
[05:22] <fourcolors> it's mounted in my fs somewhere already.. I just can't find the absolute path to it
[05:22] <tgm4883> by default, they aren't mounted anywhere
[05:23] <tgm4883> fourcolors: in a terminal type "mount"
[05:23] <fourcolors> aahh..
[05:23] <fourcolors> I think it defaults under /dev
[05:23] <tgm4883> fourcolors: no....
[05:24] <fourcolors> wait
[05:24] <tgm4883> that's the device. It's not mounted anywhere
[05:24] <fourcolors> it's mounted under /media/username/SharedStorage
[05:24] <tgm4883> ok then
[05:24] <fourcolors> sweet found it
[05:32] <LuckArkman> .
[05:33] <abhishek> I installed dropbox using instructions from here http://askubuntu.com/a/680785. It shows me "in order to use dropbox proprietary daemon". What does this mean?
[05:35] <baizon> abhishek: ?
[05:35] <abhishek> do I need to enable any sources in apt?
[05:35] <abhishek> or just install via installer and finish?
[05:36] <abhishek> baizon, does it make sense now?
[05:36] <r4hul> abhishek: thats means to run dropbox in background
[05:36] <baizon> abhishek: https://learningemperor.wordpress.com/2011/10/27/dropbox-needs-proprietary-daemon-solution/
[05:40] <abhishek> r4hul, baizon thanks
[05:41] <fourcolors> ah! found the issue
[05:41] <fourcolors> so it looks like if you encrypt your home directory you can't change your profile photos
[05:41] <abhishek> In windows, it shows sync status of each file in the window manager beside the icons. How can I make it do so in ubuntu.
[05:41] <fourcolors> I wonder if there is a work around for this
[05:42] <abhishek> I am referring to dropbox here^
[05:42] <fourcolors> Also, why does Ubuntu just incrypt the home directory vs the hold HD???
[05:42] <fourcolors> I"m really confused by that
[05:43] <tgm4883> fourcolors: if there is, then it would involve storing your profile picture outside your home directory
[05:44] <abhishek> any suggestions?
[05:44] <baizon> fourcolors: because that would slow your pc down
[05:44] <baizon> abhishek: what file manager are you using?
[05:45] <abhishek> dolphin
[05:45] <abhishek> baizon,  I am using kde 5.5, file manager is dolphin
[05:47] <baizon> abhishek: http://trichard-kde.blogspot.de/2010/12/introducing-dropbox-integration-for.html
[05:48] <mridul> Is there a way to disable Plasma in kubuntu 16.04? And somehow go to the old classic look?
[05:48] <baizon> mridul: please ask on #kubuntu
[05:48] <mridul> okie tx baizon
[05:49] <abhishek> baizon, thanks! does this still work, seems like a old post/
[05:50] <baizon> abhishek: sorry, cant tell, im not using kde
[05:50] <baizon> abhishek: dropbox supports only nautilus so, the overlay icons only work there
[05:51] <abhishek> baizon, what is nautilus, does it relate to unity in any way?
[05:52] <baizon> abhishek: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Files
[05:52] <KDE_Lover> abhishek, Nautilus is default File Manager on GTK based Desktop environments
[05:52] <brushdemon> nautilus is the gnome filemanager isn't it?
[05:52] <KDE_Lover> variants on newer ones are files and Caja
[05:53] <baizon> abhishek: example here https://www.kubuntuforums.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=4888&d=1419737474&thumb=1
[05:53] <brushdemon> I don't understand why the gnome project keeps renaming their stuff
[05:53] <brushdemon> the kde project had a decent reason
[05:53] <KDE_Lover> brushdemon, They like it :-)
[05:54] <brushdemon> It's probably for "progress" reasons
[05:54] <abhishek> This seems like more maintained solution http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/devel/kdesdk-dolphin-plugins
[05:54] <abhishek> Reading from https://www.kubuntuforums.net/archive/index.php/t-65174.html
[05:55] <abhishek> My doubt: how to install http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/devel/kdesdk-dolphin-plugins from terminal apt-get
[05:55] <baizon> abhishek: sudo apt-get install kdesdk-dolphin-plugins
[05:56] <brushdemon> actual question of curiosity, how many of you use 'apt' instead of 'apt-*'?
[05:56] <baizon> brushdemon: im using apt
[05:57] <baizon> brushdemon: but im typing apt-get for other people, because apt only works with 16.04
[05:57] <xibalba> i've never used apt
[05:57] <brushdemon> what
[05:57] <brushdemon> apt works with 15.10 for me >_>
[05:57] <baizon> brushdemon: it was introduced within 15.10, but all the needed functionality came with 16.04, also 14.04 doesnt support it
[05:58] <brushdemon> ahhhh
[05:58] <brushdemon> that explains it. The thing that really irked me about apt is the lack of docs for it
[05:58] <brushdemon> I remember going through the source to try and work out the commands it can take
[05:59] <brushdemon> that was a fun afternoon
[05:59] <baizon> brushdemon: yes it came with 1.1 and 1.2
[05:59] <brushdemon> ah
[05:59] <brushdemon> well, time to update my system by the looks of it
[05:59] <xibalba> no auto update?
[06:00] <brushdemon> I prefer to do it manually
[06:00] <baizon> i personally never upgrade my system, i do a reinstall, its faster and less problematic
[06:01] <brushdemon> ah, well some of my systems are servers which I kinda can't just "wipe the slate clean"
[06:01] <xibalba> you need VMs bro
[06:01] <xibalba> or docker
[06:01] <brushdemon> I do have vm's... you're suggesting to take down a hypervisor to upgrade?
[06:02] <xibalba> oh you're using ubuntu as your hypervisor?
[06:02] <brushdemon> ofc, it's the best linux-based OS for hypervisor usage
[06:03] <brushdemon> in my opinion at least
[06:03] <xibalba> can't you swing the VMs to another hypervisor?
[06:03] <brushdemon> usually I do when I upgrade
[06:03] <brushdemon> the thing is, I've never really had an issue on the hypervisor during an upgrade
[06:04] <brushdemon> just reroute and all the usual migration stuff, upgrade, reboot once and quickly check it out
[06:04] <xibalba> yeah same here, but i'm using vmware for all my hypervisors
[06:04] <brushdemon> that's suse based from what  I remember, right?
[06:04] <brushdemon> well part of it's suse based
[06:05] <xibalba> maybe originally, but not in recent versions
[06:05] <brushdemon> hmm, that's kind of interesting. I'll take a look into vmware again at some point
[06:06] <brushdemon> I should really give openstack a go sometime
[06:06] <brushdemon> I heard that it can manage libvirt pretty well
[06:06] <lotuspsychje> !discuss
[06:06] <xibalba> we're using it on a 16TB mem, 1PB hdd, whatever amount of gazzillion GHZ cluster
[06:07] <lotuspsychje> keep it ubuntu support related guys
[06:07] <brushdemon> sorry lotuspsychje
[06:07] <brushdemon> xibalba: heh, I'm not sure if you're being ironic or not right now
[06:08] <xibalba> i dont quite understand you
[06:08] <xibalba> i wasnt
[06:08] <brushdemon> sorry, I'm not sure if you're joking about having a 1PB HDD system
[06:08] <xibalba> no i am not
[06:09] <lotuspsychje> move on please
[06:09] <FloatingGoat> That's cool
[06:09] <xibalba> moving on
[06:09] <FloatingGoat> I don't even have a computer
[06:10] <FloatingGoat> I'm trying to connect to Ubuntu offtopic
[06:10] <lotuspsychje> FloatingGoat: type /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:27]  * tanzin hlo everyone
[06:27] <baizon> hello tanzin
[06:28] <TheTank111> has anyone's gdb been buggy lately? I havn't had problems on my mac but for some reason it stops sometimes
[06:28] <tanzin> can someone tell me the best virtual machine to use on ubuntu
[06:29] <lotuspsychje> tanzin: virtualbox is nice
[06:31] <nastia> My mouse cursor in lxde is missing when I lock the screen screen. But appear again if I log out and log in again. Why it could be?
[06:31] <roni> hi
[06:31] <roni> why
[06:35] <xangua> nastia: xubuntu has a similar bug that is "fixed" after going to a virtual terminal (CRT+alt+f1) and going back to the desktop (CRT+alt+f7)
[06:36] <Cheeks132> shouldn't I just have to go through the update manager to go from 14.04 -> 16.04?
[06:36] <Cheeks132> It's not showing up
[06:36] <nastia> xangua: not fixing, but crutch =) I'll try, it could be very usefull. But I want to find the reason
[06:36] <xangua> Cheeks132: it will show up after the first point release (July) is out
[06:37] <Cheeks132> sooo I'll have to wait or do a fresh install?
[06:38] <wahyu> hi
[06:38] <ducasse> Cheeks132: yes.
[06:38] <Cheeks132> :(
[06:38] <tgm4883> Cheeks132: why you need to upgrade so bad?
[06:39] <Cheeks132> I don't know my clion(IDE) is really buggy, I'm hoping that magically an upgrade fixes that. I am well aware that it could also be a problem with clion but..
[06:40] <roni> how to install theme windows on ubuntu?
[06:40] <roni> help me.... ,  how to install theme windows on ubuntu?
[06:42] <roni> answer me...
[06:43] <nastia> As I know it will be difficult or impossible with unity which is used by ubuntu
[06:43] <nastia> try to install lxde or xfce4
[06:43] <nastia> they have more themes
[06:44] <brushdemon> heh
[06:44] <nastia> roni: maybe here is what you are looking for? https://www.maketecheasier.com/9-great-lxde-themes/
[06:45] <xangua> roni: assuming you're using unity, create ./themes directory in your home, extract the theme there and use b unity-tweak program to change it
[06:46] <roni> tanks. briefly, my first try
[06:48] <hadleigh> hello everyone
[06:48] <hadleigh> how are we all?
[06:50] <goddard> can some one tell me all the groups they are in
[06:50] <[Saint]> Vaguely hungry.
[06:50] <goddard> i removed myself from all the groups and now i gotta add myself back
[06:50] <goddard> just type groups
[06:50] <goddard> and pass that to chat
[06:51] <[Saint]> missing a fair amount of relevant context, no?
[06:51] <[Saint]> Like, the release you're on, being the most important.
[06:51] <hadleigh> can i make it so my desktop top background changes at ramdom, cant seem to do it
[06:51] <goddard> [Saint]: can you type groups into chat?
[06:53] <xangua> hadleigh: you can find Variety in the Ubuntu software boutique
[06:53] <xangua> Or whatever is called now :-P
[06:53] <hadleigh> ok will have a looksy just like it when it changes around
[06:53] <xangua> !info variety
[06:54] <goddard> can some one paste the output of the command "groups" into chat?
[06:54] <[Saint]> goddard: what not "Do It Right (TM)" https://askubuntu.com/questions/219083/default-groups-for-user-in-ubuntu
[06:55] <goddard> [Saint]: haha
[06:55] <[Saint]> as I tried to say it isn't going to be particularly useful unless they have an identical setup and the same version of Ubuntu.
[06:55] <[Saint]> And you supplied no context for that, so...
[06:56] <goddard> [Saint]: it would of been enough for me
[06:57] <[Saint]> goddard: not if I'm on a 6 year old version of Ubuntu, for instance.
[06:58] <abhishek> hi guys!
[06:58] <[Saint]> just trying to point out why "someone post their default groups" soesn;t really work.
[06:58] <abhishek> I am stuck on these 2 issues. http://codepad.org/hGEXCN7A
[06:58] <goddard> [Saint]: it would of worked
[06:58] <goddard> [Saint]: some people just wanna be difficult... either way thanks
[06:59] <[Saint]> I am including you as one of those people, I guess.
[06:59] <[Saint]> You didn't even so much as say what Ubuntu version you were on.
[06:59] <tgm4883> OK you two, I think that's probably enough
[07:00] <goddard> this is why i hate the ubuntu chat
[07:01] <tgm4883> goddard: Don't demand things. State your issue and wait for help. [Saint], it was an easy enough request that we could have just done it. I'm doubtful that the groups have changed that much and in any case no need to press this further
[07:03] <hadleigh> how do i find out what version of ubuntu im using?
[07:04] <[Saint]> tgm4883: I thought it was infinitely better to retrieve them from the environment instead of trying to patchwork it out from anyone else's environment or have me (or anyone else) go through and figure out what was a default group and what I (or they) had created.
[07:04] <sentionics> hadleigh: lsb_release -a
[07:04] <sentionics> or... just google I guess.
[07:04] <[Saint]> You're right it was an easy request, I just don't think it would've necessarily provided a useful answer given various factors.
[07:05] <abhishek> any suggestions guys?
[07:05] <hadleigh> sentionics: thank you
[07:05] <roni> Hi. Do you know, unique applications on ubuntu?
[07:06] <Cheeks132> does anyone know how to find where an application installed its actually executable? I'm looking for my clion executable so I can run it as a super user to update but I'm not sure how to find it/which one it is/ I did locate -b clion
[07:06] <phucktank> Hi, new to linux. I did a minimal install to get to know the system better. It seems I can't connect to my NAS. when I try to smb in nautilus it says "This file server type is not recognized"
[07:07] <roni> answer me
[07:07] <abhishek> wow
[07:07] <sentionics> Cheeks132 do the which or where commands not do the job? e.g. where <command-name>
[07:08] <tgm4883> roni: first, patience. Second, write a coherent question
[07:08] <Cheeks132> which doesn't find anything and I dont have where, should i install ghwhere?
[07:08] <tgm4883> Cheeks132: "which clion" shold do it
[07:08] <roni> my question, Hi. Do you know, unique applications on ubuntu
[07:09] <[Saint]> phucktank: is gvfs present?
[07:09] <tgm4883> phucktank: you probably are missing the cifs utilities, I think cifs-utils is the package
[07:09] <tgm4883> roni: that makes no sense
[07:09] <phucktank> [Saint] yes
[07:09] <phucktank> tgm4883 let me check
[07:10] <sentionics> Cheeks132 apparently the command is actually 'whereis'
[07:10] <tgm4883> abhishek: you're better off picking one of those questions at a time and asking it in here rather than linking to a paste of your question. People idle in here and can't always click links to read your questions
[07:10] <Cheeks132> it just gives me back clion:
[07:10] <Cheeks132> like it didnt find anything
[07:11] <Cheeks132> when i do whereis gdb it finds that just fine
[07:11] <phucktank> tgm4883  I installed that package and no change. Does it require a restart?
[07:11] <tgm4883> Cheeks132: how do you launch it?
[07:11] <abhishek> tgm4883, thanks for the suggestion!
[07:11] <Cheeks132> i search for it
[07:11] <abhishek> I am using kubuntu 16.04 on this PC
[07:11] <abhishek> (http://www.hpshopping.in/HP_Pavilion_Notebook_-_15-ab549tx)
[07:11] <abhishek> Issue:On startup this shows up
[07:11] <abhishek> http://imgur.com/qwktsyd
[07:11] <abhishek> http://imgur.com/HMX349L
[07:11] <abhishek> before the login screen. At times it is just stops
[07:11] <abhishek> at this screen and doesn't move to the login screen. Or while shutdowning it stops
[07:11] <tgm4883> !help
[07:12] <tgm4883> phucktank: it shouldn't need a reboot
[07:12] <Cheeks132> it shows up in my search window lol
[07:13] <abhishek> ubottu, sry I didn't mean to do that.
[07:13] <abhishek> 1. On startup this shows up (http://imgur.com/qwktsyd, http://imgur.com/HMX349L) before the login screen. At times it is just stops at this screen and doesn't move to the login screen. Or while shutdowning it stops at this screen.
[07:13] <thinky> hello
[07:13] <tgm4883> phucktank: that's the right package, so there is probably some helper packages you need for the gui bits
[07:13] <sentionics> Cheeks132: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25836027/where-does-clion-store-executable-files
[07:14] <phucktank> I'll try some more googling and see if I can find anything
[07:14] <thinky> i am trying to disable GRUB timing in boot OS select menu. but it doesnt save grub.conf
[07:14] <bekks> thinky: Who is "it"?
[07:14] <thinky> gedit
[07:14] <Cheeks132> sentonics thats where it installs for the executable for the program you are writing not where clion launches from
[07:15] <Wonderscript> Are you running it as the proper user thinky?
[07:15] <bekks> thinky: Did you start it with gksudo?
[07:15] <thinky> yes i did '' gksu gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg ''
[07:15] <Wonderscript> shouldn't you edit /etc/default/grub and then use grub2-mkconfig?
[07:16] <bekks> thinky: You should edit /etc/default/grub instead, since the grub.cfg is autogenerated.
[07:16] <thinky> then i changed http://paste.ubuntu.com/16403071/
[07:16] <[Saint]> bingo
[07:16] <thinky> hmm
[07:16] <bekks> thinky: Font edit grub.cfg, but /etc/default/grub
[07:16] <lok> hi thinky need some help; i am on windows; need to learn either linux/debian/bash/ubuntu kind of stuff. how to start? i have 32gb pen drive'; is there any portable version i have to download from any website? please suggest.
[07:17] <bekks> thinky: *dont
[07:17] <[Saint]> lok: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
[07:18] <lok> Saint_Isidore:thanks
[07:18] <sentionics> Cheeks132 consider using the 'type' command to see what kind of command clion is
[07:18] <sentionics> type clion
[07:18] <[Saint]> Wrong Saint, but, I'll take it. :)
[07:18] <lok> ok
[07:18] <lok> prior to deciding abt ubuntu need to have overall avaialnle options for me; can you please suggest
[07:18] <thinky> bekks: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16403085/
[07:18] <Guest15189> Hi, i just updated to 16.04 but still have problem with my canon LBP printer.. it still sat communication error... when writing ccpd admin I get following info.. can any one tell if its setup correctly?
[07:18] <bekks> thinky: And?
[07:19] <thinky> when i click ''save'' on gedit. after i close gedit it is giving warning in terminal like that
[07:19] <thinky> is it normal?
[07:19] <bekks> thinky: And? :)
[07:19] <thinky> sudo update-grub ?
[07:19] <bekks> thinky: So what did you edit where now?
[07:19] <thinky> ah let me show
[07:20] <ducasse> lok: we only support ubuntu in here.
[07:20] <thinky> GRUB_TIMEOUT=10  ---->   GRUB_TIMEOUT=-1
[07:20] <thinky> i changed value 10 to -1
[07:20] <bekks> thinky: Why to -1?
[07:21] <phucktank> tgm4883 it was gvfs-backends. I had only installed gvfs. Thanks!
[07:21] <thinky> it s written here : http://askubuntu.com/questions/136070/is-it-possible-to-completely-disable-grub-timeout
[07:21] <bekks> thinky: How about reading the comments in /etc/default/grub? :P
[07:21] <thinky> i want to disable time counting in boot menu
[07:22] <abhishek> guys I have posted both questions here http://askubuntu.com/questions/772180/wifi-not-working-realtek http://askubuntu.com/questions/772182/pci-bus-error-on-startup-while-booting-into-login-screen-kubuntu-16-04
[07:22] <abhishek> please check if possible.
[07:22] <bekks> thinky: If you completely disable it, you will have NO chance to boot another kernel in case one fails. You will NOT be able to boot into recovery mode anymore, too.
[07:22] <thinky> bekks: i just dont want it counts from 10 seconds
[07:23] <thinky> i want it wait for my choice
[07:23] <tgm4883> bekks: is completely disable "wait for choice" or "no wait"
[07:23] <thinky> i am dual booting ubuntu 16.04 with windows 10
[07:23] <bekks> tgm4883: So I did get that wrong :)
[07:23] <thinky> yes completely disable timing
[07:24] <thinky> in 14.04 i did the same without problem
[07:24] <thinky> in 14.04 i did the same without problem
[07:24] <thinky> but now i dont know why it is giving WARNING In terminal
[07:25] <thinky> it seems not saving the edited file
[07:25] <bekks> thinky: So look into the file again after saving and closing it.
[07:26] <thinky> i dont understand
[07:26] <thinky> ** (gedit:4707): WARNING **: Set document metadata failed: Setting attribute metadata::gedit-encoding not supported
[07:27] <thinky> ** (gedit:4707): WARNING **: Set document metadata failed: Setting attribute metadata::gedit-position not supported
[07:27] <bekks> thinky: Forget thos gedit messages.
[07:27] <Wonderscript> just use nano or vim lol
[07:27] <bekks> thinky: Check your actual file wether it contains your changes.
[07:27] <[Saint]> Generally speaking, warnings don't matter.
[07:28] <[Saint]> If a warning mattered, it wouldn;t be a warning, it would be an error.
[07:28] <Guest92562> ooo
[07:29] <thinky> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16403200/
[07:30] <bekks> thinky: So does your file contain your changes?
[07:30] <Wonderscript> did you run update-grub after you changed your files? think
[07:31] <thinky> should be
[07:32] <bekks> thinky: Does it contain your changes or not?
[07:32] <thinky> yes it does
[07:32] <thinky> brb
[07:32] <thinky> i will test changes
[07:32] <bekks> Did you run sudo update-grub afterwards or not?
[07:35] <Wonderscript> I guess they left..
[07:35] <Wonderscript> oh.
[07:37] <thinky> bekks: my changes work ;)
[07:38] <thinky> timing disabled now
[07:38] <MiSiFU> Hi, I had a little problem to install some packages in my new ubuntu 16.04
[07:38] <MiSiFU> E: Unable to locate package libavformat56
[07:38] <MiSiFU> E: Unable to locate package libavcodec56
[07:38] <MiSiFU> E: Unable to locate package libprotobuf8
[07:39] <MiSiFU> on 14.04 I dont had any problem
[07:39] <bekks> !info libavformat56 | MiSiFU
[07:40] <baizon> there is no such package in any version of ubuntu
[07:40] <MiSiFU> then I will not able to use the software wich need that package?
[07:41] <Wonderscript> Unless you can find a repo that provides those dependencies, no.
[07:41] <MiSiFU> (sorry for my bad english)
[07:41] <bekks> MiSiFU: Which software do you use then, which didnt worked in 14.04 as well?
[07:41] <MiSiFU> the software works on 14.04
[07:41] <bekks> MiSiFU: WHICH software?
[07:42] <MiSiFU> its "ShouthIRC BOT", a bot to manage IRC Radios Channels
[07:42] <MiSiFU> ShoutIRC BOT
[07:42] <bekks> MiSiFU: Whats a radio channel, in IRC? :)
[07:42] <MiSiFU> a new one in other network
[07:43] <MiSiFU> the users can request songs.... vote for songs....
[07:43] <MiSiFU> and other things
[07:45] <CY_Genre> force mount and format uninitialized hard disk anyone?..
[07:46] <bekks> CY_Genre: You cannot mount an unformated disk.
[07:46] <bekks> CY_Genre: You need to create a partition/logical volume, and a filesystem first.
[07:46] <CY_Genre> well i can't format it either
[07:46] <MiSiFU> then... there is no solution?
[07:46] <CY_Genre> le sigh
[07:46] <bekks> CY_Genre: Why not?
[07:46] <CY_Genre> thats what im trying to figure out
[07:47] <CY_Genre> it's uninitialized, not mounted, can't force mount it either
[07:47] <CY_Genre> but i can still see it
[07:47] <bekks> CY_Genre: Why cant you create partition, etc.?
[07:47] <CY_Genre> again... this is what im trying to figure out
[07:48] <ducasse> CY_Genre: you should be getting an error message when some operation fails.
[07:48] <bekks> CY_Genre: How are you trying to partition?
[07:48] <CY_Genre> one sec...
[07:48] <auronandace> CY_Genre: you mount partitions, you don't mount unused disk space
[07:49] <bekks> you dont mount partitions, you mount filesystems.
[07:49] <tgm4883> lol
[07:49] <CY_Genre> bekks, Error wiping device: Command-line `wipefs -a "/dev/sdb"' exited with non-zero exit status 1: wipefs: error: /dev/sdb: probing initialization failed: No such device or address

[07:50] <CY_Genre> maybe it's a bit late and im not wording this correctly, sorry
[07:50] <CY_Genre> but that is what im having trouble doing for some reason
[07:50] <auronandace> CY_Genre: are you sure your device is /dev/sdb?
[07:51] <CY_Genre> auronandace, yes, im sure
[07:51] <CY_Genre> auronandace, im sure that's it's also no unused space
[07:51] <CY_Genre> it's full of data
[07:54] <bekks> CY_Genre: "wipefs" is NOT partitioning a drive.
[07:54] <bekks> CY_Genre: Partition it.
[07:54] <gggt> I'm going to buy system which is wrote in java lang. One of sellers want to give me source code of it, but it is more expensive that without it. Is it worth to pay for source code ?
[07:55] <Wonderscript> lolwut
[07:55] <bekks> gggt: How do we know it, without knowing the product.
[07:55] <CY_Genre> i don't want to partition it, i just want to format the entire thing is all, i can partition it later. if i can't format it then how am i supposed to partition it afterthefact?..
[07:55] <bekks> CY_Genre: Formatting means: "create a filesystem".
[07:56] <ducasse> CY_Genre: you partition first.
[07:56] <Wonderscript> ^
[07:56] <CY_Genre> trial and error then
[07:56] <Wonderscript> use fdisk to partition, then use your mkfs tool or whatever to make a filesystem
[07:56] <bekks> CY_Genre: No. Reading what people tell you.
[07:56] <bekks> CY_Genre: Create a partition, create a filesystem.
[07:56] <CY_Genre> obviously
[07:57] <CY_Genre> but yeah, i'll try this real quick
[07:57] <bekks> CY_Genre: Hopefully you have a backup of that disk.
[07:57] <Wonderscript> ^lol
[07:57] <Wonderscript> I bet he doesn't
[07:57] <Wonderscript> No one ever does
[07:57] <bekks> Otherwise the data isnt worth to be kept.
[07:57] <CY_Genre> not necessary
[07:58] <CY_Genre> it's not worth keeping to begin with
[07:59] <CY_Genre> permission denied
[08:00] <bekks> When doing what?
[08:01] <Wonderscript> Are you running as the proper user
[08:01] <bekks> CY_Genre: You need to be clear, and provide more details, since we cant guess what you are doing, and crystal balls dont work until tuesday.
[08:02] <cfhowlett> !  Ms. Cleo approves
[08:06] <CY_Genre> i've only been using the "disks" application to try to either format, erase, or (now) partition this drive, what data is on here is not important
[08:06] <bekks> CY_Genre: Use "gksu gparted"
[08:06] <CY_Genre> it's just uninitialized for some reason
[08:06] <bekks> CY_Genre: ^
[08:08] <Wonderscript> use fdisk on the drive, delete anything thats there, and make a new partiton, then run mkfs.ext4 /dev/drivehere
[08:08] <Zulu_Too> CY Genre Bekks made it clear about mounting. Without a File System, a partition is useless even with data on it. Use a data recovery software and save any data. then just do a DOD    i.e.   Department Of Defence disk erasure and wipe the disk clean. Then now you have something to work with.
[08:09] <CY_Genre> error opening device /dev/sdb no such device or address
[08:09] <CY_Genre> i was afraid of that
[08:09] <bekks> Zulu_Too: No need for that dod nonsense. The disk IS uninitialized :)
[08:09] <CY_Genre> so basically dban this thing
[08:09] <bekks> CY_Genre: When doing what?
[08:09] <bekks> CY_Genre: Again: provide details.
[08:10] <Zulu_Too> If the disk has data on it just wipe it clean and start new.
[08:10] <bekks> Zulu_Too: No need for wiping it.
[08:10] <LaughOutLoud> bekks, Crystal Balls, rofl :P
[08:10] <Zulu_Too> Yes there is.
[08:10] <Zulu_Too> Why have garbage on the diskA?
[08:11] <auronandace> Zulu_Too: partitioning will overwrite it anyway
[08:11] <Zulu_Too> A clean disk is a clean start.
[08:11] <bekks> Zulu_Too: There is entirely no sense in using the DOD procedures unless you are working for the DOD or the Army.
[08:12] <Zulu_Too> A simple disk wipe is good enough.
[08:12] <bekks> Zulu_Too: Thats not following the DOD procedure.
[08:12] <Zulu_Too> Formatting a disk can be unformatted.
[08:13] <bekks> Zulu_Too: "formatting a disk" means: "creating a filesystem". Please see the backlog for basic guidelines on how to use disks.
[08:13] <auronandace> Zulu_Too: he already said the data is not worth it, if it was highly sensitive data then it might be worth considering under more extreme conditions of paranoia
[08:13] <Zulu_Too> That is not what I was referring to. If you format a disk, there is residual data on the disk.
[08:14] <bekks> Zulu_Too: Which is irrelevant, since the data left is irrelevant, as he stated.
[08:14] <auronandace> Zulu_Too: and that will be overwritten when the partitions start to fill up anyway
[08:14] <pc_magas> Hello ellows I have a weird problem. I have no internet on the desktop and I have discovered by looking on /var/log/syslog that the network manager is being killed and the ethernet interface from eth0 is renamed to eth1.
[08:15] <Zulu_Too> It is not whether it is irrelevant in this instance or any other instance. Residual data is not a good thing.
[08:15] <pc_magas> Do you have any idea why does this happen?
[08:15] <bekks> Zulu_Too: It is irrelevant unless you are dealing with sensitive data.
[08:15] <Zulu_Too> If I use a Windows box and delete a file the data is still on the disk.
[08:15] <bekks> Zulu_Too: Or too much paranoia and too less meds against it.
[08:16] <Zulu_Too> By the way any virus on the disk that is deleted is still on the disk. I have seen this.  The virus is hidden because the disk was not erased.
[08:17] <cfhowlett> Zulu_Too, windows?  this ain't windows.  can we move on to the supported topic please?
[08:18] <Zulu_Too> I understand that.
[08:20] <Zulu_Too> If the person wants to just download an installation CD or DVD and install Ubuntu, Ubuntu will do all that you said above without the critical DOD erasure. I agree.
[08:26] <jackcom> how can i get root in the command?
[08:26] <Wonderscript> su, sudo or gksu
[08:26] <bekks> !sudo | jackcom
[08:27] <jackcom> su: Authentication failure
[08:27] <bekks> su is not sudo.
[08:27] <jackcom> i don’t know what’s wrong
[08:27] <bekks> !root | jackcom
[08:28] <Zulu_Too> Also  su -
[08:29] <bekks> !root | Zulu_Too
[08:29] <bekks> Zulu_Too: Obviously, su will not work.

[09:13] <ducasse> arcsky: well, there's your answer.
[09:13] <arcsky> ducasse: from the server its a zip when i do file. but when i wget to the client i get HTML document.
[09:14] <Ben64> then the server isn't serving the zip file

[10:44] <arcsky> for how long will the bootup process take? it search for networking ...
[10:44] <bekks> Until it configures the network or times out.
[10:45] <arcsky> quite long time
[10:45] <arcsky> almost 4min now
[10:45] <bekks> 300s are longer ;)
[10:48] <simon_> hi
[10:48] <arcsky> enp0s3 what kind of interface is that?
[10:49] <EriC^^> sounds like an ethernet
[10:49] <arcsky> it has been ethX in years
[10:49] <arcsky> ist something stupid new thing?
[10:49] <bekks> But it isnt anymore.
[10:49] <arcsky> LOL
[10:49] <bekks> It is called systemd. No joking intended.
[10:50] <arcsky> big joek
[10:50] <arcsky> joke*
[10:50] <simon_> i heard about mint 18
[10:50] <bekks> !mint | simon_
[10:50] <bekks> arcsky: Basically, the name of the interface is irrelevant, once you setup your networking.
[10:50] <tariva> hi
[10:51] <arcsky> yes bekks but its traditonal inteface for ethernet for linux
[10:51] <arcsky> since the beginigs
[10:51] <bekks> arcsky: And?
[10:51] <arcsky> why the hell change names of it
[10:51] <bekks> arcsky: Traditions change.
[10:51] <simon_> ooooh its ubuntu>> sorrry
[10:51] <arcsky> they will lose users for this
[10:51] <bekks> arcsky: Accept the fact that the old sysv init tradition os gone.
[10:52] <bekks> *is
[10:52] <arcsky> Gentoo/slackware/debain/ changed too?
[10:52] <bekks> arcsky: And if someone uses an OS just for the name of the ethernet interface - well, that no big loss then.
[10:52] <bekks> arcsky: Sure.
[10:53] <ducasse> arcsky: google "persistent network interface naming" and move on.
[10:55] <tariva> hi guys
[10:55] <arcsky> bekks: an ducasse do you like the new sysv? :P
[10:55] <bekks> arcsky: Thats irrelevant to the ubuntu support.
[10:56] <arcsky> i think its not will be a "hit"
[10:56] <arcsky> for sure
[10:56] <bekks> arcsky: Can we come back to support now?
[10:57] <arcsky> is this chan only for support and not general talks about ubuntu? sorry
[10:57] <ducasse> arcsky: try #ubuntu-offtopic

[11:02] <tariva> yeah. i don't know why my 'Ubuntu Software' don't work :(
[11:03] <Minege> Guys, i have a question: I really like the "Look and feel" of Mac OS X and i use Ubuntu mate, do you know theme, "good theme" that is like the mac os ? I have searched on GTK candy but no good resulrt
[11:03] <Minege> Ah :|
[11:03] <Minege> Sorry, i don't use Ubuntu software
[11:03] <tariva> ok :)
[11:03] <tariva> i'm new in linux :)

[11:59] <dunaeth> Hi, any idea for partitioning a single machine for openstack testing ? There's a doc for automated cloud install but it does not recommand anything
[12:19] <zoli> hi, i have just upgraded to 16.04 from 14.04 on a kaveri cpu/gpu desktop machine and after boot i have black screen. I can hear ubuntu sound that is played at login screen, and i can login blindly and hear skype loading, so it must be a screen/amd issue
[12:19] <zoli> how can I make it work?
[12:19] <zoli> i cant switch to terminal with ctrl-alt-f1
[12:20] <zoli> i cant get to the grub menu with shift either
[12:20] <ducasse> !ltsupgrade | zoli
[12:21] <zoli> ducasse: hmm, why is it not possible to upgrade now? if it is officially out?
[12:22] <ducasse> zoli: the upgrade path from 14.04 is not ready yet. your best bet is to restore from backup or reinstall.
[12:23] <zoli> ducasse: well i tried that too, i tried to cean install but the issue is the same, black screen
[12:24] <ducasse> zoli: not sure, driver problem probably.
[12:25] <bekks> zoli: Did you try the nomodeset kernel option?
[12:25] <zoli> i wanted but no, since i cant access grub options, tried to hold shift but didnt get anything
[12:25] <bekks> zoli: try using esc
[12:25] <zoli> hm ok let me try
[12:27] <zoli> bekks: tx esc works, where shall i enter this exactly? which line? on a new line?
[12:27] <bekks> !nomodeset | zoli
[12:28] <Quatroking> how can I check the amount of space available on my hdd?
[12:29] <ducasse> Quatroking: 'df'
[12:29] <Quatroking> thanks
[12:29] <Quatroking> I take it "available" is in kilobytes?
[12:29] <agopo> Hi, I want to pass the argument $1 (a digit) to a for-loop. The for-loop is supposed to loop $1 amount of times. Is this correct? for ( x = 0 ; x <= $1 ; x++) do;
[12:30] <Quatroking> ah, df -h does the trick and shows it nicely
[12:32] <zoli> bekks: ducasse: thank nomodeset solved the problem, it boots alright now
[12:32] <zoli> now i have to make it permanent
[12:32] <dunaeth> Hi, any idea for partitioning a single machine for openstack testing ? There's a doc for automated cloud install but it does not recommand anything
[12:33] <ibegforhelp> hello people please i beg for help
[12:33] <ducasse> zoli: add it after 'quiet splash' in /etc/default/grub and run update-grub
[12:33] <ibegforhelp> I installed ubuntu and delete dwindowds but when using ubuntu it oveheats my pc, and now i have winows 7 iso but i cant manage to boot it! Im trying to do it with unetbootin but it doesnt work
[12:34] <bekks> ibegforhelp: You need to burn it to a cd/dvd and boot it.
[12:34] <ibegforhelp> im hopeless trying to fix it since 7 hours
[12:35] <bekks> ibegforhelp: Burn the iso to a cd/dvd, boot it.
[12:35] <ibegforhelp> dont have dvd......
[12:35] <bekks> ibegforhelp: Then you need to get one.
[12:36] <bekks> ibegforhelp: And for other options of booting windows, please visit ##windows
[12:36] <ibegforhelp> so no chance to do it with usb / sd card adapter?
[12:36] <ibegforhelp> tried both and didnt work....
[12:36] <brushdemon> agopo: you could set $1 as a 'state' variable outside the loop
[12:37] <Minege> hi ! Anyone code with scala ?
[12:37] <brushdemon> local a=$1; for (x=0; x<=$1; x--)
[12:37] <SchrodingersScat> ibegforhelp: you can try dd, but it's all at your own risk and not supported because windows is primitive and can't seem to nail this one.
[12:37] <zoli> ducasse: thanks it works!
[12:38] <ducasse> zoli: np.
[12:43] <ibegforhelp> so we dont have any tool to make bootable usb on ubuntu>
[12:43] <ducasse> ibegforhelp: i don't think windows iso images are hybrid images, so you need a dvd burner.
[12:43] <ducasse> ibegforhelp: either way that is a windows problem.
[12:44] <bekks> ibegforhelp: We have.
[12:44] <bekks> ibegforhelp: But Windows support can be found in ##windows
[12:45] <ibegforhelp> so how do i make lubuntu usb from ubuntu>
[12:45] <ducasse> ibegforhelp: 'dd', for example.
[12:46] <OerHeks> ibegforhelp, withe the standard usb creater in ubuntu
[12:46] <bekks> dd if=file.iso of=/dev/outputdevice bs=1M
[12:46] <bububoi> How can I use the grep command to print the exact keyword match?
[12:46] <bekks> ibegforhelp: And that will NOT work for Windows, since Windows ISO files arent hybrid isos.
[12:47] <SchrodingersScat> ibegforhelp: dd if=/path/to/win7-meme-distro.iso of=/path/to/device conv=noerror,notrunc
[12:47] <SchrodingersScat> ew, awful then
[12:47] <bububoi> If the contents of the file is abc adbcd abc101010 etc, I want to grep for abc and only the matching line should be displayed
[12:49] <SchrodingersScat> bububoi: grep ^abc$ /foo/bar/file
[12:50] <SchrodingersScat> bububoi: the regex (iirc) is ^ denotes something at the beginning of the line and $ signifies the end of the line, so when you wrap them together it should mean only those specific lines are matched.
[12:51] <bububoi> SchrodingersScat: thanks let me try it
[12:52] <iBegforHelp_> hello its me again and can i use a dvd+RW?
[12:53] <iBegforHelp_> or it must be a fresh dvd
[12:54] <Yannii> +RW is fin, iBegforHelp_
[12:54] <OerHeks> iBegforHelp_, you can start with thet RW disc, if it does not work, try option 2
[12:54] <iBegforHelp_> i just feel so hopeless, i dont know if you know the feel when you just want to throw everything
[12:55] <iBegforHelp_> +bad move from microsoft they dont give a tool to create usb pednrive on linux!
[12:55] <OerHeks> yeah, go rant about miocrosoft in a linux support channel
[12:55] <uname> may be a bit offtopic: how do I recursively change permissions of folders only, via ftp ?
[12:56] <OerHeks> uname,  with the option -R
[12:56] <uname> OerHeks: not locally, on a remote ftp server
[12:58] <SchrodingersScat> uname: you're saying that there's a command in your ftp client to change permissions and it doesn't accept -R to recursively change them?
[12:58] <Yannii> iBegforHelp_,  yes, DVD is the easiest.  But u can also try a SD/USB drive with http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
[12:59] <uname> SchrodingersScat: I want folders only, -R does everything
[12:59] <SchrodingersScat> oh, I see
[12:59] <ducasse> uname: i think you need a regular shell on the server and 'find'.
[13:00] <iBegforHelp_> @Yanii I'am on ubuntu... and want windows, i deleted windows partition
[13:00] <ducasse> iBegforHelp_: that is not an ubuntu problem.
[13:00] <iBegforHelp_> but i had problem with making the pendrive
[13:00] <iBegforHelp_> unetbotiin default loop
[13:00] <scrabcakes> I have no network/internet available. I tried restarting network manager but it says "Job failed to restart" or "Job failed while stopping"?
[13:01] <uname> ducasse: no shell, ordinary remote shared hosting
[13:01] <uname> ducasse: was offered filezilla, will try
[13:02] <iBegforHelp_> is there any gui dvd burner software for ubuntu?
[13:03] <scrabcakes> also I have a crash log for network manager
[13:03] <ducasse> iBegforHelp_: k3b, brasero.
[13:03] <Yannii> iBegforHelp_, u can also create a USB drive, with GNOME-disks:  "Restore disk image"
[13:04] <OerHeks> scrabcakes, stopped working after update??
[13:04] <scrabcakes> OerHeks: possibly, has there been a recent update?
[13:04] <OerHeks> yes, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1539634  http://askubuntu.com/questions/771627/14-04-network-manager-stopped-working/771841#771841
[13:05] <scrabcakes> oh haha, cheers!
[13:22] <Guest98618> I want to install kernel 4.6 on Xenial to see if the latest ath10k driver updates solves my wifi issues, can I install one of the rc7 for wily/yakkety?
[13:24] <OerHeks> !mainline
[13:25] <OerHeks> you can try the v4.4.10-xenial/ kernel, Guest98618
[13:25] <OerHeks> or build it yourself
[13:25] <alias_neo> OerHeks: Will that have latest up to date ath10k driver changes?
[13:26] <alias_neo> BEcuase the 4.4 kernel that comes with xenial is only up to date until about November 15
[13:26] <OerHeks> i don't know that about ATH10K

[13:32] <Welastevil> hi folks
[13:32] <Welastevil> someone using tor browser?
[13:32] <cfhowlett> Welastevil, avoid wasting time with "anyone?" questions.  state YOUR issues and problems for best results
[13:33] <Welastevil> ok
[13:33] <Welastevil> so...I downloaded an app for tor called "arm"
[13:33] <Welastevil> I find no help googling it or at roe channel....
[13:33] <Welastevil> downloaded it but can not even run it....
[13:33] <Welastevil> any ideas?
[13:34] <cfhowlett> if they don't support their own product, you can hardly expect us to, yes?
[13:34] <Welastevil> I did not say they dont support
[13:34] <Welastevil> they just did not answer...
[13:34] <cfhowlett> ?
[13:35] <baizon> Welastevil: sudo apt-get install tor-arm ?
[13:35] <baizon> !info tor-arm
[13:36] <cfhowlett> Welastevil, as per the link above, tor-arm is in the ubuntu repos.  install from there.
[13:37] <Welastevil> i did it
[13:37] <Welastevil> but i can not run it
[13:37] <DArqueBishop> Welastevil: pastebin the output when you try to run it.
[13:38] <Welastevil> it says "Connection refused. Is the ControlPort enabled?"
[13:38] <Welastevil> which control port?
[13:38] <Welastevil> how to enable it?
[13:39] <baizon> Welastevil: https://www.reddit.com/r/TOR/comments/2haw9s/having_some_issues_with_arm_and_tor_relay/

[13:40] <DArqueBishop> Sorry, that was probably a bit harsh.

[13:45] <lotuspsychje> !bluetooth | oldspice
[13:45] <lotuspsychje> oldspice: also check blueman for install
[13:46] <OerHeks> good start https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/ubuntu-help/bluetooth-problem-connecting.html
[13:46] <oldspice> i have tried this, it was working previously. now when I restart my computer the service is started but I have no icon and cannot connect, i have searched for questions to resolve the issue but they haven;t helped
[13:47] <MIJ> can we uppgrade to newer kernels ?? without issues
[13:47] <lotuspsychje> !mainline | MIJ
[13:47] <MIJ> ok
[13:47] <OerHeks> MIJ, not guaranteed without issues
[13:47] <baizon> !LTSEnablementStack
[13:47] <lotuspsychje> MIJ: for wich issue are you gonna try?
[13:48] <baizon> MIJ: also recommend this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[13:48] <MIJ> audio
[13:49] <oldspice> sudo apt-get install bluez-utils
[13:49] <oldspice> oops sorry
[13:52] <MIJ> am i still in
[13:52] <Beladona> I did do-release-upgrade but it says no release available
[13:52] <oldspice> lotuspsychje, can you point me in the right direction of what my conflict might be? my bluetooth was working fine, now I see no indicator with the symbol, and cannot connect. I have checked the config files but am not sure what I need to edit.
[13:53] <Beladona> helo
[13:54] <SchrodingersScat> I have some user accounts that run some programs that create files in /home/$USER/, I was wondering if I could make the whole /home/$USER/ a tmpfs since I want to avoid disk writes and the data used by the user doesn't need to be saved.  Good idea?
[13:55] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: are you on 14.04?
[13:55] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: I don't think 14.04 can upgrade until 16.04.1
[13:55] <yongkaihe> i have installed ubuntu 16.04.the bluetooth icon can be seen on the menu,but i can't use it to connect to my phone.Does anyone solve shi problem?
[13:56] <Beladona> SchrodingersScat:  14.04 lts
[13:56] <Beladona> SchrodingersScat:   kubuntu 15.04 IS released already http://kubuntu.com/getkubuntu/
[13:56] <SchrodingersScat> !15.04
[13:56] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: that's not supported anymore.
[13:56] <jraynes89> Hi guys, anyone know how to get around the login loop after installing nvidia drivers on ubuntu 15?
[13:56] <Beladona> SchrodingersScat:  which is not supported?
[13:57] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: kubuntu 15.04
[13:57] <oldspice> yongkaihe, can you provide more detail? I am also having bluetooth issues maybe something I have read may help
[13:57] <jraynes89> i just did apt-get install nvidia-current or whatever but after i reboot the screen res is super low
[13:57] <lotuspsychje> jraynes89: wich ubuntu version exactly?
[13:57] <jraynes89> 15.10
[13:57] <lotuspsychje> jraynes89: wich card and driver version?
[13:57] <Beladona> SchrodingersScat:   ya but why cant I upgrade to 16.04 lts?
[13:57] <cfhowlett> Beladona, you must do an eolupgrade.  for now you are totally unprotected and unsecured.
[13:57] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade
[13:57] <jraynes89> its a nvidia gtx960 (maxwell generation I think)
[13:58] <Beladona> cfhowlett:  why is that?
[13:58] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: I believe the recommended path is to wait until 16.04.1, but there's probably a way around it, like -d possibly, but that's likely less recommended
[13:58] <jraynes89> and driver version 352
[13:58] <lotuspsychje> jraynes89: try sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
[13:58] <jraynes89> yeah I can uninstall and get back to where I was but I was wondering if anyone knew how to get the drivers to install cleanly
[13:58] <cfhowlett> Beladona, because, as you read in the link, support for 15.04 ended.  no updates.  no security
[13:58] <SchrodingersScat> cfhowlett: Beladona says they're on 14.04, trying to get to 16.04, I think the EOL version was a typo.
[13:58] <Beladona> cfhowlett:  14.04 lts is not end of like. it should be supported for 5 years
[13:59] <jraynes89> I tried to disable those nouveau drivers before installing the nvidia drivers but it did not help
[13:59] <oldspice> yongkaihe,  are you there?
[13:59] <jraynes89> and the nvidia installer is no help either
[13:59] <cfhowlett> Beladona, ah.  true.  thought I read you were on 15.04
[13:59]  * Beladona is on 14.04 lts
[14:00] <lotuspsychje> jraynes89: for gtx cards you might wanna try higher kernel + latest drivers from ubuntu ppa
[14:00] <yongkaihe> my computer is dell xps 9343
[14:00] <Beladona> so what I can do? why i see no release available
[14:00] <jraynes89> the graphics-drivers ppa?
[14:00] <oldspice> yongkai: what device are you trying to connect?
[14:00] <cfhowlett> Beladona, wait.  16.04.1 will enabled direct upgrade for 14.04 users
[14:01] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: my 14.04 machines also don't see an upgrade yet, this is normal.  15.10 machines can, likely because they're non-lts and need to upgrade soon.  Seems they're giving more care for the LTS by letting them wait.
[14:01] <yongkaihe> i am tring to connect to my phone through bluetooth
[14:02] <Beladona> ok
[14:02] <Beladona> why I cant get the official one? krytarik  SchrodingersScat  what can I do to get the Offical 16.0lts
[14:02] <yongkaihe> i can find my phone ,but can't be connected
[14:02] <lotuspsychje> jraynes89: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[14:02] <oldspice> yongkaihe, in the system settings menu, are you able to scan and see the phone?
[14:02] <jraynes89> ok thanks
[14:02] <DArqueBishop> Beladona: as said before, wait for 16.04.1 to drop.
[14:03] <lotuspsychje> jraynes89: the nvidia-364 perhaps
[14:03] <yongkaihe> yes ,i can
[14:03] <oldspice> does it give any error message when you try to connect?
[14:03] <oldspice> and is your phone connected to any other devices?
[14:04] <maxb> Beladona: I believe it's mostly a caution thing - the assumption is that people on a LTS value stability a lot, so Ubuntu doesn't actively start encouraging LTS-to-LTS upgrades until the first point release of a new LTS. It's still possible to upgrade anyway if you feel brave. Though, 16.04 has had enough bugs that I kind of wish I'd stayed on 15.10 for a bit longer
[14:04] <benone> hello
[14:04] <yongkaihe> i also tried my bluetooth headset,it is the same condition
[14:04] <MIJ> hello
[14:04] <Beladona> DArqueBishop:  I see http://kubuntu.com/getkubuntu/ declares the official releast of 16.04 lts. My questions is that if I am on 14.04 lts, why.. cant I see it in do-release-upgrade notI can upgrade without a -d ?
[14:04] <lotuspsychje> maxb: every version suffers bugs
[14:04] <Beladona> maxb:   SchrodingersScat  cfhowlett ^
[14:05] <maxb> lotuspsychje: Sure, but a pretty major regression affecting all use of bluetooth headphones is a bit more than you'd typically expect, especially from an LTS
[14:05] <oldspice> yongkaihe, can you see what output you get from the following command. sudo service bluetooth status
[14:05] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: does -d say it'll take you to 16.04?  You'd be leaving the path of recommendation, but maybe that's your choice.
[14:05] <xitroka> Is it possible to find all installed third party packages? (the ones installed by gdebi, dpkg -i, make install, etc)
[14:06] <lotuspsychje> maxb: bugs are there to get solved and users come here for help also
[14:06] <DArqueBishop> Beladona: why can't you wait until 16.04.1?
[14:06] <Beladona> SchrodingersScat:  thats my question, why I have to add -d if the stable official is there
[14:06] <Beladona> DArqueBishop:  why should i?
[14:06] <maxb> Beladona: As I just said, it's a caution thing. If you're still running 14.04 at this point, Ubuntu assumes you value stability more than being on the bleeding edge. Thus, the *recommended* position is to give 16.04 a bit more time to mature
[14:06] <Beladona> DArqueBishop:  I have an issue with my mic ; I cant fix drivers. maybe the next version has
[14:06] <DArqueBishop> Beladona: I refer you to maxb's explanation.
[14:07] <Beladona> maxb:  ok
[14:07] <cfhowlett> in other words, bleeding edge is bloody.
[14:07] <Beladona> maxb:  but this is unexpected. if official is there. it should be there for upgrades
[14:07] <Beladona> cfhowlett:  bleeding edge is bloody edge
[14:07] <maxb> Beladona: Unexpected to you perhaps.
[14:07] <Beladona> ya
[14:08] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: it's a bit new yes, but I believe they announced it some time ago, I know I was being told that it would be 16.04.1 couple months before they were releasing.
[14:08] <Beladona> maxb:  if I say, stable is out, take it but I dont give it for upgrades. is contrary to my own satement
[14:08] <SchrodingersScat> and I don't follow things
[14:08] <yongkaihe> oldspice：it replys:not enogh free handles register service
[14:08] <Beladona> statement
[14:09] <oldspice> yongkai,  was this working before you had an update?
[14:09] <DArqueBishop> Beladona: that's because clean installs are almost always far less problematic than upgrades of existing systems.
[14:09] <yongkaihe> sap driver initialization failed
[14:09] <maxb> Beladona: You need to adjust your expectations. Released and not released is not a boolean state. 16.04 is currently in a state of "we think it meets the expectations of people on a 6-monthly upgrade schedule, but if you only use LTSes, we think you should give us some more time to polish it"
[14:10] <yongkaihe> yes,i can update the bluetooth ,and tyied many times
[14:10] <SchrodingersScat> Beladona: I'm actually in the middle of pulling data in from a fresh 16.04 install because I didn't want to wait :D  I could have tried the other method, but this seemed cleaner...  I'll be your guinea pig, you're welcome ;(
[14:10] <Beladona> maxb:  SchrodingersScat  ok, how can I get latest drivers for my mic.
[14:11] <cfhowlett> the first wave of fixes will be rolled into 16.04.1.  Nothing stops you from forcing the issue immediately with a clean install.  I have found the saner option is to just be patient.
[14:11] <oldspice> yongkaihe, I am not certain, but I think you and I are having the same issue. Sometimes I restart and the icon is there, sometimes not
[14:11] <qkzoo1978> Went to install xchat and it says "xchat has no installation candidaye." Where did it go and how do I install it ?
[14:11] <Beladona> oh 14.04
[14:11] <Beladona> on
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> !xchat | qkzoo1978
[14:11] <oldspice> it was working fine for me before
[14:11] <qkzoo1978> thanks
[14:12] <maxb> qkzoo1978: To supplement the answer from ubottu, hexchat is actually a fork of xchat and is extremely similar, so it's a pretty easy transition
[14:12] <cfhowlett> qkzoo1978, xchat has been abandonware for years.  install hexchat

[14:15] <Hyrule> hey there. I'm a linux newbie and am wondering where I should go about storing downloaded applications (f.e. Telegram) and how I can create a favorite shortcut (preferably with an icon)
[14:15] <lotuspsychje> Hyrule: are you on 16.04?
[14:15] <Hyrule> yes, and on GNOME
[14:15] <lotuspsychje> Hyrule: you can install the new telegram snap package if you like
[14:16] <oldspice> yongkaihe, I am sorry I dont think I can help you any further but I do think that you are experiencing the same issue as me. I am working on  the assumption that like me, You have used the hardware you are trying to use in this way before. The hardware is not the issue.
[14:16] <lotuspsychje> Hyrule: sudo snap install telegram-sergiusens
[14:16] <Hyrule> lotuspsychje: is it always preferable to install the packages from the distribution? I ran into a bug with Qt5 yesterday and was forced to.
[14:16] <SchrodingersScat> socket: there's lots of ways to transfer files, guess it depends on what your devices support.

[14:17] <carrotcorn> Hi there! I'm on Ubuntu 15.10, with the `xubuntu-desktop` package installed, and most of the default `unity-*` and `ubuntu-desktop` package(s) removed. I installed CompizConfig Settings Manager and the extras, within which I enabled the Scale Windows plugin, which is shown to be bound to the Super + W keystroke. It doesn't seem to work though :/
[14:17] <carrotcorn> How might I fix this?
[14:17] <Hyrule> Yannii: that is looking sweet. I'll read on it
[14:17] <oldspice> yongkaihe, I do think that its intermittent. sometimes opening the bluetooth settings in the system settings menu and switching it on and rebooting makes the icon appear for me, but it doesn't necessarily start again when you reboot next.
[14:17] <SchrodingersScat> carrotcorn: afaik xubuntu doesn't use compiz, I could be wrong?
[14:19] <Yannii> compiz is optional on Xubuntu, SchrodingersScat
[14:19] <yongkaihe> oldspice:Thank you.I will try again.
[14:19] <oldspice> yongkaihe,  I think that sometimes it is not recognising the bluetooth interface in the computer. or at least not selecting it correctly. What output do you have on dmesg | tail
[14:19] <SchrodingersScat> Yannii: k, thanks.  carrotcorn: looks like there's a couple guides online on how to get that.
[14:20] <carrotcorn> SchrodingersScat: Do you mind referring me to them by means of hyperlinks? ^^
[14:21] <SchrodingersScat> carrotcorn: I just googled 'xubuntu compiz' you may want to add which ubuntu version you're using

[14:30] <OerHeks> thunderkey, no, not really.
[14:30] <thunderkey> OerHeks, thanks :)
[14:30] <LPH24> Just newer versions of software, right?

[14:31] <Hyrule> I tried to install Cutegram. I get "W: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/aseman/desktop-apps/ubuntu xenial Release' does not have a Release file." and later on "Package cutegram can not be found." (translated)
[14:32] <Hyrule> some 404 errors in between
[14:32] <lotuspsychje> !ppa | Hyrule
[14:33] <lotuspsychje> Hyrule: try the telegram from snap packages in 16.04
[14:33] <OerHeks> Hyrule,  check the ppa, https://launchpad.net/~aseman/+archive/ubuntu/desktop-apps
[14:33] <OerHeks> no version for your ubuntu
[14:33] <lotuspsychje> Hyrule: snap find , to see the whole list
[14:34] <lotuspsychje> Hyrule: sudo snap install telegram-sergiusens
[14:34] <Hyrule> lotuspsychje: alright. will try.
[14:35] <Fleuv> EriC^^, it seems that im the only user in the group sudo
[14:36] <Fleuv> I used: grep -Po '^sudo.+:\K.*$' /etc/group
[14:36] <Hyrule> lotuspsychje: worked like a charm, and I even have a shortcut in the dash. thank you.
[14:37] <lotuspsychje> Hyrule: have fun!
[14:37] <trick2g> anyone used virtualbox with ubuntu server before?
[14:37] <xangua> You could also just use the telegram web one
[14:38] <soee> if i have /boot partion and after it / - is it safe to take 300 mb from / beginning and assign it to /boot using gparted ?
[14:39] <cfhowlett> soee, booting up an ubuntu USB and using gparted, yes.
[14:39] <OerHeks> trick2g, if someone did, what would be your real question?
[14:39] <soee> cfhowlett: im on rescuecd
[14:39] <compdoc> finally got x2go working on 16.04 server with the Mate desktop. now Im ready to upgrade my systems :)
[14:39] <cfhowlett> same effect, soee
[14:40] <trick2g> oerheks: how can i copy and paste between windows and ubuntu server?
[14:40] <soee> cfhowlett: yes but when i was taking 300 MB from / start, gparted shoed warning that it my leads to booting problem sometimes
[14:40] <baizon> trick2g: use a "shared folder"?
[14:40] <Hyrule> xangua: That works quite nice also. Thank you.
[14:41] <trick2g> baizon: i need to be able to copy and paste large commands.
[14:41] <OerHeks> baizon +1 > trick2g see the settings for your vm, add the folder from the host
[14:41] <baizon> trick2g: "large commands"?
[14:42] <trick2g> baizon: a long apt-get command that i wont want to type out
[14:42] <trick2g> dont*
[14:42] <baizon> trick2g: write it into a file, put that in a shared folder and read from vm
[14:42] <baizon> trick2g: or create a bash script with that command and put it into the shared folder
[14:43] <trick2g> the solution is actually just to ssh in and copy and paste with a windows client
[14:43] <trick2g> but i cant get the damn internet to work on a bridged connection.
[14:46] <trick2g> baizon or oerheks: can you answer me this: how do i access localhost through windows on NAT?
[14:50] <baizon> trick2g: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html
[14:53] <trick2g> baizon: not helpful
[14:54] <ducasse> trick2g: why would we know anything about windows here?
[14:55] <EriC^^> they should make shifts "I'm a linux user, ask me about anything you want"
[14:55] <EriC^^> and maybe a </sarcasm> on the back
[14:55] <EriC^^> *shirts
[14:59] <trick2g> ducasse: can you answer me why when i have a bridged connection on virtualbox i cant use apt-get?
[15:00] <baizon> trick2g: your router is blocking, that would be my guess
[15:00] <trick2g> i can ping google though
[15:01] <ducasse> trick2g: i don't use vbox, so no idea. i use a bridge with kvm, though, and those guests work just fine. _guessing_ your setup is wrong.
[15:01] <OerHeks> trick2g, that is explained in that doc, bridged for www, nat for local network etc
[15:02] <trick2g> derheks: i can use bridged and and access localhost but no internet, and i use NAT and access the internet and no localhost...but how can i access localhost and the internet at the same time..
[15:05] <OerHeks> trick2g, all this effort for one line apt-get? the easiest way is to share a folder, as we answered already
[15:07] <trick2g> no its not one line im using the server for development purposes and i'd like to be able to use apt-get while being able to access localhost
[15:07] <trick2g> i have to keep turning off the server and switching to NAT to apt-get and then switch back to bridged to start the localhost server again..its awful.
[15:07] <pauljw> trick2g, make sure your user on the host is a member of the vboxsf group.  i use nat and access both the internet and local shared folders here.
[15:07] <omega> hey
[15:08] <trick2g> paul: but can you access a web server like nginx outside of ubuntu? thats what im trying to do
[15:10] <merced> what do you mean?
[15:11] <pauljw> that i don't know, trick2g your question was about local and internet, i don't use nginx, but i can ssh into other remote systems on my network to do updates from my vm, so i would guess you should be able to reach nginx server.
[15:13] <akik> trick2g: with bridged connection you access your lan as any other host. with nat you access your lan through your vbox host machine. why do you say localhost server?
[15:14] <carrotcorn> SchrodingersScat: Hi! I managed to get Compiz working with Xfce4 on Ubuntu 15.10 using this guide: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/11/how-to-set-up-compiz-in-xubuntu-1210-or.html
[15:14] <trick2g> akik: i can access localhost through the bridged IP <IP_ADDRESS> on my windows computer and if i switch to NAT it changes to <IP_ADDRESS> and it wont connect.
[15:14] <linuxuser> Sup clowns😁
[15:14] <linuxuser> How u all doing?
[15:15] <SchrodingersScat> carrotcorn: nice
[15:16] <carrotcorn> I'm running Ubuntu with the Xfce 4 desktop environment. When I press the power button on my laptop, I get a screen giving me the options to logout, restart, shut down and suspend. I'd like to know the terminal command to get this popup, to assign it to the Ctrl + Alt + Del keystroke (which I am aware of how to do).
[15:16] <carrotcorn> How might I find the terminal command for it?
[15:16] <trick2g> akik: i can access localhost on <IP_ADDRESS> and ssh in and ping google through it, but i cant use apt-get? it fails to connect to any server. any idea why?
[15:17] <merced> carrotcorn: xfce4-session-logout
[15:17] <carrotcorn> merced: Absolutely wonderful ^^
[15:17] <carrotcorn> THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANK
[15:17] <carrotcorn> S

[15:20] <trekai> Running Ubuntu 16.04 64 bits, I'm trying to find the  libgtk-x11 package I've enabled both base and community packages in Synaptic
[15:21] <trekai> Lots of games depend on this library.
[15:24] <gsker> trekai: try searching for the files that the games complain about not finding.
[15:24] <trekai> gsker, I already did, else I wouldn't have joined this channel
[15:25] <gsker> trekai: What files is it complaining about?
[15:25] <OerHeks> trekai, maybe you need libgtk2.0-0
[15:25] <trekai> gsker, this is the error I got: Error loading the runtime (libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
[15:25] <gsker> for example, /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 is in libgtk2.0-0
[15:25] <gsker> hahaha
[15:25] <OerHeks> http://askubuntu.com/a/493564
[15:25] <gsker> well. There you go!
[15:26] <jack_rip_vim> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16410994/
[15:27] <jack_rip_vim> want to keep going, how to fix it
[15:27] <trekai> Oerheks, thank you, I was probably to specific in my search
[15:27] <OerHeks> trekai, have fun!
[15:27] <jack_rip_vim> ?
[15:28] <trekai> OerHeks, I fully intend to :-)
[15:28] <jack_rip_vim> I need to pack it
[15:28] <OerHeks> jack_rip_vim, seems like you have no network connection at all?
[15:28] <brelod> he
[15:28] <jack_rip_vim> yes
[15:28] <jack_rip_vim> but I download it at the dir
[15:28] <jack_rip_vim> didn't know how to keep going, because uck stopped
[15:29] <jack_rip_vim> final step
[15:30] <jack_rip_vim> anyway to make uck start from there?
[15:30] <jack_rip_vim> #uck
[15:30] <jack_rip_vim> have this channel?
[15:31] <OerHeks> jack_rip_vim, check the internet connection perhaps ? ping archive.ubuntu.com
[15:32] <jack_rip_vim> I download the file at local, want to start from where the uck stop
[15:33] <jack_rip_vim> how to start again
[15:33] <jack_rip_vim> I build the file waste me 8 hours
[15:33] <OerHeks> I am not sure how to start where you ended, start again.
[15:33] <jack_rip_vim> didn't want to start over
[15:34] <jack_rip_vim> or any one who can teach me how to pack a iso file with boot.iso
[15:35] <akik> trick2g: i have now kubuntu running in virtualbox. its eth0 address is <IP_ADDRESS>. i can ping both <IP_ADDRESS> which is the virtualbox host and my normal router which is <IP_ADDRESS>
[15:36] <trick2g> akik: now apt-get install nginx and do sudo service nginx start and see if http://<IP_ADDRESS> works in your browser outside virtualbox.
[15:37] <trick2g> i don't think it will.
[15:37] <trekai> OerHeks, everything is running fine now, it turned out be a 32-bits game so I needed the 32-bits libs Thanks again for the link :-D
[15:37] <akik> trick2g: it's your job to debug your problem
[15:38] <trick2g> akik: i've being trying to debug the problem for the past 4 hours and could use some help please.
[15:39] <pauljw> trick2g, you are attempting to use virtualbox and ubuntu server in such a way that most of us here have no experience.  perhaps try in #ubuntu-server.
[15:39] <Guest12208> what is the command to ping an ip range ? Thanks
[15:42] <OerHeks> Guest12208, install fping, sudo fping -s -g <range start> <range end> -r 1
[15:42] <pauljw> trick2g, i use virtual machines to play with different distros on my 14.04lts host.  i use nat and have no problem accessing the internet and folders on my host machine, but this is not the same thing you're looking to accomplish.  good luck.  i know finding networking problems is a frustrating ordeal.
[15:42] <Guest12208> Thank you oerheks
[15:44] <akik> trick2g: in virtualbox vm settings / network there's port forwarding settings
[15:44] <akik> trick2g: if you use nat, you can set port forwards there
[15:44] <Codfection> wtf why google drive is not available on ubuntu
[15:44] <trick2g> akik: i tried port forwarding <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> didn't work
[15:44] <OerHeks> cadeskywalker, watch your language please
[15:45] <OerHeks> keep this channel family friendly, thanks
[15:45] <ducasse> Codfection: ask google.
[15:45] <Codfection> ducasse, oh man. and the overgrive seems to be alternative but its not open source !!
[15:46] <akik> trick2g: why do you use <IP_ADDRESS>?
[15:47] <trick2g> because thats the local ip on the ubuntu server.
[15:47] <akik> trick2g: you set the port forward as <IP_ADDRESS>:nnn to go to <IP_ADDRESS>:80 and it doesn't connect?
[15:48] <sine0> i cant find thunderbird in the apt-get
[15:48] <sine0> halp.plox
[15:48] <barretj> my pc is connected to both wifi and wired connections... how can i check which connection it's using with e.g. ping, traceroute, or some other command line tool...
[15:49] <OerHeks> barretj, networkmanager > connection details # this shows active adapter
[15:50] <akik> trick2g: check if you have iptables blocking port 80
[15:51] <OneM_Industries> I am looking for a good serial com terminal other than screen. Does anyone know of a good one?
[15:51] <gsker> minicom cutecom
[15:51] <gsker> none of them are great
[15:52] <OneM_Industries> Hm.
[15:52] <OneM_Industries> Tried minicom..that was a pain in the cans...
[15:53] <OneM_Industries> Well, thank you anyway!
[15:55] <lerner> im playing starcraft on wine, but the screen is very small and the game does not have an option to change the screen size. Wine's desktop is configured to be 1024x812, but the game always loads a very small screen. how do I change that?
[15:55] <bash1235_> hey, anybody has experience with unmounting a bogus nfs mount point ?
[15:55] <bash1235_> tried umount -lf
[15:55] <bash1235_> but nothing
[15:55] <OerHeks> !wine
[15:56] <OerHeks> lerner, ask in #winehq for game help
[15:57] <trick2g> akik: http://<IP_ADDRESS>:3000/ works now on NAT
[15:57] <trick2g> thanks a lot
[15:59] <kallo82> Hello
[16:00] <akik> trick2g: did you only had to do the port forward and it started working?
[16:00] <kallo82> i have installed Ubuntu 16.04 on my Dell workstation , the ethernet doesn't work at all, i tried to refresh the installation but it didnt work
[16:00] <kallo82> any idea how to fix that ?
[16:01] <trick2g> akik: yep
[16:01] <trick2g> later
[16:01] <kallo82> even on wifi it seems very slow !
[16:09] <kallo82> Hello
[16:09] <kallo82> anyone can help ?
[16:11] <kallo82> any help would be appreciated as im stuck
[16:11] <tonyt> kallo82 ask the question
[16:12] <kallo82> tonyt, thank you, i have just installed Ubuntu 16.04 on my dell workstation, the ethernet adapter is unable to get an ip address therefore it keeps trying to connect
[16:13] <kallo82> also the wifi is very slow i tried that on my other laptop and the connection seems to have no issues
[16:14] <maxb> bash1235_: Rebooting is often easiest, if that's at all an option. NFS mounts are annoying like that
[16:14] <bash1235_> jenius
[16:15] <bash1235_> genius*
[16:15] <maxb> bash1235_: Otherwise, do you know why it is stuck?
[16:15] <kallo82> How do i fix that ?
[16:15] <bash1235_> nfs server changed ip
[16:15] <bash1235_> I tried adding the ip in another server
[16:15] <maxb> bash1235_: I have occasionally had some success ... doing what you just did
[16:15] <guideX> will docker ever run in 15, 16
[16:15] <bash1235_> but didn't actually setup the server there
[16:15] <guideX> maybe more of a docker question
[16:16] <bash1235_> did you setup the server ?
[16:16] <guideX> from what i'm hearing, docker is "unofficially unsupported" in 15, 16
[16:16] <guideX> whatever that means
[16:16] <bash1235_> maxb: did you setup the server in the new ip ?
[16:16] <maxb> bash1235_: Um, good question. No, but now I think about it, the other server I used was running an NFS server already
[16:17] <bash1235_> I have other servers that had the same mountpoint and umount -lf worked
[16:17] <bash1235_> dunno wtf is wrong with this specific
[16:17] <maxb> guideX: If you're trying to refer to Ubuntu versions, there's no such thing as "Ubuntu 15" or "Ubuntu 16"
[16:17] <bash1235_> and I'm not very keen on rebooting
[16:17] <drama> guideX, i got it from a PPA for 15... it ran great. what kind of support do you want? commercial
[16:18] <guideX> drama: I do not remember what went wrong, however when trying to use docker in 15/16 it didn't work at all, then seeking support in #docker they say use 14.04, not working in 15, 16 etc
[16:19] <guideX> I mean, it's not a huge issue, just means i'll be unsupported in ubuntu eventually, common scenario for me
[16:19] <OerHeks> guideX, dustin explains: https://insights.ubuntu.com/2016/04/15/docker-1-10-with-fan-networking-in-ubuntu-16-04-for-every-architecture/
[16:19] <guideX> always ends up like that, ubuntu is an older version because some software doesn't work in newer versions, so I'm without any help all the time in ubuntu
[16:20] <ducasse> guideX: i ran docker on 15.10, worked fine. switched everything to lxc now, though.
[16:20] <drama> guideX, sorry you did mean docker.io right? or the panel thingy
[16:20] <Hyrule> is there a better software center than that one? http://fs5.directupload.net/images/160514/vwr5s5ad.png It just can't find any of the tools I want...
[16:21] <guideX> the thing which allows you to run webapps in a container
[16:21] <guideX> docker.io
[16:21] <guideX> https://www.docker.com/
[16:22] <drama> guideX, 16.04 has docker.io 1.10  i'm sure it works
[16:22] <guideX> oh maybe it's just 15 that doesn't work hm
[16:22] <OerHeks> Hyrule, install synaptic, detailed softwarecenter
[16:22] <OerHeks> !info synaptic
[16:22] <guideX> well I recall trying 15.04 and it didn't work (I wish I remembered why)
[16:22] <Novice201y> Hello. How can I fix recording from internal microphone - only noise is being recorded?
[16:22] <guideX> I could reattempt my experiment for more exacting results
[16:22] <guideX> docker with 15, 16 etc
[16:23] <drama> Hyrule, there GDebi from Start ->System Tools
[16:24] <guideX> ok well noted, i'll try it on 16 then, otherwise I will just run 14.04 forever I guess
[16:24] <Hyrule> OerHeks, drama: thank you. didn't remember there was synaptic. fits my needs.
[16:24] <guideX> I really hate ubuntu though honestly, because you guys don't support the other versions, and the software doesn't always support the newer versions.. this is why I try to avoid ubuntu at all costs, poor live support
[16:25] <OerHeks> bla bla guideX
[16:25] <OerHeks> tanks for the rant
[16:25] <guideX> whenever I'm in need of support, it's always something like that
[16:26] <ducasse> !latest | guideX
[16:31] <jackbat> hi - i'm new to system administration. i have a digitalocean vm, and i installed some packages. then i created a user with `adduser` and logged in, but i can't access those packages anymore
[16:32] <Inocuous> sounds like you might need to install the packages as the new user, but it's not my area, just thinking out loud
[16:33] <kallo82> tonyt, can you help me with that ? or anyone else ?
[16:33] <jackbat> yeah, i can do that, but then if i add a third user, would i need to install the packages again? seems like someone would have thought of a better way to handle this
[16:33] <egsome> d S4123
[16:33] <jelly013> hi
[16:34] <jelly013> who is running Backbox?
[16:34] <akik> jackbat: no the installed packages are available for all users. how did you install them?
[16:34] <katie1231> just installed ubuntu 16.04 and i have no unity dash launcher and top menu bar, anyone know how to fix this?
[16:34] <drama> jackbat, your new user needs to be a part of some group like libvirtd prolly... type groups as that user to see what groups he's in
[16:34] <Bassem> how to hide more suggestion from the unity application?
[16:35] <akik> jackbat: if you install files into your home directory, they won't be available for other users
[16:35] <jackbat> akik, don't remember exactly. i installed ruby and rails for example, but when i type `which rails`, it doesn't show anything
[16:35] <jackbat> drama - i'm in my own group
[16:35] <akik> jackbat: you would need to know *where* you installed them
[16:35] <jackbat> i mean, the result of that command is the same name as the user
[16:35] <egsome> Why Unity 8 acts so strangely on my laptop ?
[16:35] <egsome> I can't almost do anything !
[16:35] <xangua> Bassem: install unity-tweak and you can set it there
[16:36] <drama> jackbat,  so your a member of just one group?
[16:36] <xangua> egsome: unity 8 is not yet user ready
[16:36] <jackbat> yeah i guess so! if i add that user to `libvirtd` will it have access to the other stuff? :)
[16:36] <drama> jackbat, here's my groups: bucky adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare libvirtd
[16:36] <egsome> xangua, Actually I'm a developer and wanted to have a look and participate in the testing phase, but I can't even test anything !
[16:37] <egsome> xangua, Isn't it ready to that level ? Most of things not even working !
[16:37] <drama> jackbat, I got more groups than you :p
[16:37] <jackbat> XD
[16:37] <guideX> OerHerks it's not a rant, i've been in that exact situation with Ubuntu too many times, in fact, almost every time
[16:37] <akik> jackbat: are you doing libvirt development? i guess that is not the group you're looking for
[16:38] <jackbat> nope
[16:38] <akik> jackbat: how did you install the new software packages?
[16:38] <guideX> so im like on guard for it now
[16:38] <jackbat> akik, i think apt-get
[16:38] <akik> jackbat: apt-get installs the software packages globally for every user
[16:39] <jackbat> if i create a new group and add a couple users, if one user installs packages, will the other user have access to them?
[16:39] <drama> akik, what does digitalocean use.. that's what he said he was doing
[16:39] <akik> jackbat: normal users don't install packages unless you grant them sudo rights
