[14:45] <anil__> what apps support them?
[14:45] <MonkeyDust> anil__  that depends on the type of file
[14:46] <[Ex0r]> anil__- You can browse your windows files from within linux to locate the files. You have to mount the linux partition first. If it's an app, you probably won't have any luck running it but a document you can retrieve.
[14:46] <[Ex0r]> windows partition*
[14:46] <anil__> ok thank you monkeydust..
[14:46] <anil__> bye...
[14:46] <[Ex0r]> for example mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/windows
[14:47] <[Ex0r]> (Assuming your windows partition is labeled /dev/sda2
[14:47] <anil__> i have .docx file in it?
[14:48] <MidnightOc3lot> Heya!

[14:49] <MidnightOc3lot> If anybody needs help, I will try my hardest c:
[14:49] <MonkeyDust> !cookie | MidnightOc3lot
[14:49] <[Ex0r]> anil- use sudo fdisk -lu to list the drives in your system. Find the windows partition on the drive you need and get the mount point for it
[14:50] <compdoc> MidnightOc3lot, I could use $50
[14:50] <MidnightOc3lot> Ummmmmm, im poor xD
[14:50] <MidnightOc3lot> Ill give you $0 though! *hands the money*
[14:50] <[Ex0r]> err he left.. in the middle of getting help
[14:51] <compdoc> yur no help!
[14:51] <jarlopez> Hi all. I've been having some issues with my graphics since updating to 15.04, and at this point I don't know what to do but roll back my graphics driver. Does anyone have any info/tips/steps on accomplishing that?
[14:53] <MidnightOc3lot> @jarlopez . are your graphics drivers NVIDIA?
[14:54] <jarlopez> MidnightOc3lot: No, i915 for my intel graphics controller
[14:54] <MidnightOc3lot> jarlopez: You want to roll back, am I right?
[14:55] <jarlopez> MidnightOc3lot: Yeah. I've tried everything, from re-installing compiz, xorg-server, unity, to reconfiguring them to defaults, to trying nomodeset in grub. At this point, I think that's my only option
[14:56] <jarlopez> askubuntu.com/questions/623575 appears to have the same issue
[14:56] <MidnightOc3lot> jarlopez: I am a little bit of a noob, but have you tried looking inside Additional Drivers in Settings?
[14:56] <MidnightOc3lot> jarlopez: I'm sorry, but I don't particularly know how to fix this issue :c
[14:56] <jarlopez> MidnightOc3lot: I'm without a GUI currently, due to the behavior described in the link I sent.
[14:58] <MidnightOc3lot> jarlopez: I found this. Might help? https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/2013/intel-linux-graphics-installer
[14:58] <vinod777> hi help
[14:59] <MidnightOc3lot> vinod777: Whats your problem?
[14:59] <marvin> hello
[14:59] <marvin> who isthere
[15:00] <MidnightOc3lot> marvin: Hey! Welcome to the ubuntu IRC channel c:
[15:02] <vinod777_> I installed gnome from software center
[15:03] <vinod777_> after reboot black screen instead of login
[15:04] <MidnightOc3lot> vinod777:, do you get a cursor also?
[15:04] <vinod777_> how to fix this
[15:04] <vinod777_> no
[15:04] <vinod777_> Ctrl apt f1 not working
[15:04] <MidnightOc3lot> vinod777: So... You get no cursor at all?
[15:04] <vinod777_> no
[15:04] <vinod777_> just black screen
[15:05] <MidnightOc3lot> vinod777: Hmmmm, this is confusing. What GUI did you have before this?
[15:05] <vinod777_> unity
[15:05] <vinod777_> 15.04
[15:06] <vinod777_> I have and proprietary driver from additional hw drivers
[15:06] <vinod777_> amd
[15:06] <MidnightOc3lot> vinod777: You didnt remove unity when you added GNOME, because I have a sneeking suspicion thats why,.. Im kind of new to the UBUNTU community and joining this to hopefully learn more and help people with the knoledge I have c:
[15:06] <xAndreLopesx> Whats the command to see if a package is installed on ubuntu ?
[15:06] <ki7mt> MonkeyDust, can I send you pm for a couple questions ?
[15:06] <Seveas> xAndreLopesx: apt-cache policy packagename
[15:06] <Seveas> or dpkg -l packagename (ii means installed in its output)
[15:07] <vinod777_> I think we don't have to remove unity
[15:07] <vinod777_> to install gnome
[15:07] <vinod777_> at login it should ask
[15:07] <MidnightOc3lot> dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall makes a list of applications you have installd on Ubuntu (For those who asked)
[15:07] <xAndreLopesx> seveas idk the exact name of the package
[15:08] <xAndreLopesx> im looking for packages with "open" on it
[15:08] <xAndreLopesx> or "opencv" on it
[15:08] <Seveas> xAndreLopesx: dpkg -l | grep opencv
[15:08] <MidnightOc3lot> Vinod777: I am ultra confused, ab
[15:09] <vinod777_> uninstalling will
[15:09] <MidnightOc3lot> Vinod777: I am ultra confused, and I am not sure I can help...
[15:09] <vinod777_> uninstalling gnome work?
[15:11] <MidnightOc3lot> vinod777: Worth a try. Sounds like the most logical solution right now.
[15:12] <vinod777_> how to uninstall gnome
[15:13] <MidnightOc3lot> vinod777: I have no idea... Im so sorry >.<
[15:13] <vinod777_> going to failsafe not working

[15:28] <danofsatx> how do I investigate a dependency chain on a .deb package? I don't see the option in the dpkg manpage, and I don't know where to go next (I'm much more familiar with .rpm packages)
[15:30] <vinod777_> OK fixed all problems
[15:30] <vinod777_> anyone want to know how
[15:36] <moparisthebest> anyone know how to get a text-based installer for ubuntu nowadays?

[15:56] <cfhowlett> !flavors | nabdev, any of those will work
[15:57] <explosive> nabdev: 14.04 is a stable long term support release
[15:58] <Pici> nabdev: LTSes have 5 years of support, other releases are only supported for 9 months.
[15:58] <nandoe> I prefer XFCE
[15:59] <explosive> nandoe: download xubuntu 14.04
[16:00] <nandoe> @explosive: Ok, I will try it
[16:00] <TheBoyd> is there an oem install option for 14.04
[16:00] <cfhowlett> TheBoyd, there is
[16:00] <TheBoyd> I've only been able to find the info 10.4
[16:01] <TheBoyd> The tricky part is that I'm also trying to set this up as an option via pxe boot
[16:02] <MonkeyDust> nandoe  check out vagrant
[16:04] <nandoe> vagrant?
[16:04] <MonkeyDust> nandoe  vagrant has been created to do what you want http://www.vagrantbox.es/
[16:04] <nandoe> MonkeyDust thanks man
[16:06] <ki7mt> TheBoyd, then OEM config packages are still in the repo's for 14.04 and so on, see package: oem-config and other related packages.
[16:06] <nandoe> I confuse how can I use vagrant
[16:07] <TheBoyd> thank you ki7mt
[16:07] <Johncr1> python-pygment package seems to have a problem
[16:07] <catcher> Just upgraded to 15.04, and I appear to have no terminal. Has it been replaced?
[16:07] <ki7mt> TheBoyd, This may be useful also: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/oem-config-remaster
[16:08] <k1l> catcher: which desktop?
[16:08] <MonkeyDust> nandoe  like so, (example) : vagrant box add ubuntu1404 https://oss-binaries.phusionpassenger.com/vagrant/boxes/latest/ubuntu-14.04-amd64-vmwarefusion.box
[16:08] <k1l> catcher: press ctrl+alt+t
[16:09] <MonkeyDust> nandoe  you need to have virtualbox and vagrant installed
[16:09] <catcher> k1l, success, thanks.  Weird that it's no longer available via launcher though.
[16:10] <nandoe> MonkeyDust : It can be installing for real pc?
[16:10] <MonkeyDust> nandoe  i have it on a real pc, even assigned aliases to it
[16:11] <k1l> catcher: there wasnt a change. so i dont know what is going wrong there. is it unity?
[16:11] <nandoe> MonkeyDust ok, thanks for information
[16:11] <PanV> Hey. I would need some help with my webcam. It's mic is supported, but the video is not.
[16:11] <catcher> k1l, yep, unity
[16:12] <heeen> fucking boot repair
[16:12] <MonkeyDust> PanV  tried cheese to test the cam?
[16:12] <EriC^^> heeen: what's the problem? also mind the language
[16:13] <PanV> MonkeyDust, the wot m8?
[16:13] <k1l> catcher: maybe just tell a new terminal to "stay at the launcher"
[16:13] <PanV> nvm
[16:13] <heeen> EriC^^: I used to boot from usb into ubuntu 14.04, on my mac
[16:13] <MonkeyDust> PanV  what language is that
[16:13] <heeen> EriC^^: then I resized the boot partition and the drive would no longer show up
[16:13] <PanV> ... I see my webcam's working
[16:14] <PanV> wait a sec
[16:14] <heeen> someone suggested repair boot from a live session
[16:14] <EriC^^> heeen: ubuntu is installed on a usb?
[16:14] <heeen> now it doesn't boot AT ALL unless the live disk is in
[16:14] <heeen> EriC^^: yes
[16:14] <PanV> Cheese works, the "Take a Photo" thing in user settings does not
[16:14] <EriC^^> heeen: are you in the live session right now?
[16:14] <heeen> so apparently it modified the efi partition on my mac or something
[16:15] <heeen> no idea how I can get it back to the original state now
[16:15] <heeen> EriC^^: no
[16:15] <heeen> I can reboot
[16:15] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, boot the live usb
[16:16] <PanV> Cheese works, the "Take a Photo" thing in user settings does not
[16:16] <heeen> instead of a virgin osx that I boot into ubuntu every now and then I now have this mess on my hands
[16:17] <heeen> should have tried to understand what is wrong and fixed it manually
[16:17] <heeen> ok I'm in live
[16:17] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, first things first, check if you're booted in efi mode, type ls -ld /sys/firmware/efi
[16:19] <heeen> that dir exists
[16:20] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, type sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[16:20] <heeen> ok
[16:21] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, type sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[16:21] <heeen> just tell me what you want to know
[16:22] <EriC^^> the partition table and partitions
[16:22] <catcher> Is there a keyboard shortcut to switch b/n terminal tabs?
[16:22] <catcher> disregard, I see it.
[16:22] <heeen> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11247294/
[16:22] <b4tm4n> I'm setting up a server that will use two drives - one for the OS and one to house data (applications and databases)
[16:22] <b4tm4n> Is there a canonical location to mount a drive of this type?
[16:23] <heeen> the sandisk I want to boot from
[16:23] <heeen> the jetflash is the live disk
[16:23] <heeen> the apple drive should know nothing about any of that
[16:23] <heeen> I'd like to get that back to its original state
[16:24] <EriC^^> heeen: why did you resize the boot partition?
[16:24] <heeen> I was running out of space
[16:24] <EriC^^> heeen: it's currently 10GB
[16:24] <heeen> it was 8
[16:24] <heeen> I wanted to upgrade from ubuntu 14.04 to 15.04 and then install kubuntu
[16:25] <heeen> and even for the upgrade it already was not enough
[16:25] <heeen> anyways, in the meantime I installed kubuntu from live twice over that
[16:25] <EriC^^> 500mb should be enough for a /boot partition
[16:25] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt
[16:25] <heeen> the other partition is /home, I don't want to delete it
[16:25] <heeen> EriC^^: I meant it was /
[16:25] <heeen> and it booted from there
[16:26] <heeen> I did not have /boot as a separate partition
[16:26] <EriC^^> heeen: ok
[16:26] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, type the above command
[16:29] <heeen> ok
[16:29] <BadDream> hi could someone help me please?
[16:29] <heeen> does efi NEED a separate boot partition?
[16:30] <heeen> because I'm pretty sure I did not have one before
[16:30] <tocka> BadDream ask the actual question, if someone will know the answer they will help you
[16:30] <BadDream> i lost grub after the latest ubuntu update and boot-repair isnt fixing it....i dont know how to restore grub
[16:30] <heeen> the /EFI/ubuntu folder has been modified today
[16:30] <EriC^^> BadDream: are you in a live usb right now?
[16:30] <heeen> on sda1 I mean.
[16:30] <BadDream> no im on windows....i dual boot with win 8.1
[16:31] <BadDream> i can get on a liveusb tho if thats better
[16:31] <EriC^^> heeen: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /run /sys; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[16:31] <EriC^^> heeen: type the above command completely
[16:31] <heeen> you're setting up a chroot?
[16:31] <EriC^^> BadDream: how are you booting into 8.1?
[16:31] <BadDream> it boots directly to win 8.1 now instead of going to grub
[16:32] <heeen> EriC^^: done
[16:32] <EriC^^> heeen: yes
[16:32] <EriC^^> heeen: type sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi
[16:33] <EriC^^> BadDream: ok, boot into a live usb
[16:33] <BadDream> ok...brb
[16:33] <heeen> EriC^^: so you're tricking the grub installer to write to that disk, it does not have a target disk param or why is this necessary
[16:33] <heeen> EriC^^: why
[16:33] <EriC^^> heeen: i'm not tricking anything yet
[16:34] <heeen> EriC^^: why do we need sda1
[16:34] <EriC^^> heeen: cause the efi partition should be mounted under /boot/efi
[16:34] <heeen> will it write into sda1
[16:34] <heeen> or just read
[16:34] <EriC^^> heeen: because supposedly that is your efi partition
[16:34] <heeen> hmm
[16:35] <heeen> alright
[16:35] <heeen> so we do need a separate efi partition
[16:36] <heeen> I wonder if it used that before or if it used some legacy boot mode
[16:36] <heeen> because before the disk was listed as "windows" in the boot drive selection menu
[16:36] <heeen> the mac menu, that is
[16:36] <flamegeek> .
[16:36] <flamegeek> heyi
[16:36] <flamegeek> \/list
[16:40] <heeen> EriC^: what next
[16:41] <EriC^> heeen: type sudo efibootmgr -v | pastebinit
[16:41] <desophos> hi, i'm having a problem with opengl in an ubuntu 15.04 virtualbox guest with a windows 8.1 host; my glxinfo reports that hardware rendering is working fine, but for some reason when i enable LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose i can see that only swrast_dri is tried, nothing else. 3d acceleration is turned on in the VM settings and i have no idea what's wrong
[16:41] <kilde> Hello. Is it possible for a new kernel to screw up my internet?
[16:42] <heeen> EriC^: should we chroot first?
[16:42] <heeen> into /mnt
[16:44] <BadDream> EriC^,  hi im back on my xubuntu live usb
[16:44] <heeen> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11247646/
[16:44] <Spec-Chum> desophos: that sounds more like a VBox issue
[16:45] <dror> Hi! recently, "show hidden files" is always on. If I uncheck it, close the window and reopen it - "show hidden files" is checked again. How can I fix this?
[16:46] <desophos> Spec-Chum: could be, but i thought people here might be able to help too
[16:46] <desophos> just in case, my glxinfo: https://dpaste.de/ByUm/raw and my verbose debug info: https://dpaste.de/Ms1T/raw
[16:46] <Spec-Chum> desophos: do you have inxi installed?
[16:46] <BadDream> oh poop eric poofed
[16:46] <Spec-Chum> desophos: if so could you just do inxi -G
[16:47] <BadDream> ohai EriC^^  wb
[16:47] <EriC^^> BadDream: thx, type sudo apt-get install pastebinit then type sudo parted -l | pastebinit
[16:47] <desophos> Spec-Chum: and what should be the output?
[16:48] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, type sudo chroot /mnt
[16:48] <desophos> Spec-Chum: chromium is listed as the renderer
[16:48] <Spec-Chum> desophos: check to see you're on chromium, VBox's video driver
[16:48] <BadDream> you want me to paste you the url it outputs EriC^^ ?
[16:48] <Spec-Chum> if you're on Gallium it's not working
[16:48] <Spec-Chum> ah, OK
[16:48] <Spec-Chum> that's fine then
[16:48] <heeen> EriC^^: same output
[16:48] <EriC^^> BadDream: yeah please
[16:49] <BadDream> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11247675/
[16:49] <EriC^^> heeen: are you in the chroot right now? root@ubuntu:~/# ?
[16:49] <Spec-Chum> *renderer, not driver, sorry
[16:49] <heeen> yeah
[16:49] <Spec-Chum> desophos: in that case I'm not sure, that was the obvious one :/
[16:49] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, type ls -l /boot/efi/ubuntu
[16:50] <EriC^^> heeen: does that dir exist and are there .efi files?
[16:50] <heeen> no
[16:50] <heeen> weird
[16:50] <desophos> Spec-Chum: yeah, that's the confusing part; everything says it's using the hardware renderer except it's not actually tried
[16:50] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, i think your old install had an efi partition on the usb itself and it the macos to boot, but you could select it from a menu
[16:50] <heeen> EriC^^: do you mean /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu, then yes
[16:51] <EriC^^> ok, problem is i don't know if boot-repair did that or what
[16:51] <EriC^^> it could be that the old install had its separate efi partition on the usb's disk and you used to select it, which makes sense why you had to manually boot it from a menu
[16:52] <heeen> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11247709/
[16:52] <ruind> which ubuntu package delivers freebsd's PF?
[16:52] <EriC^^> BadDream: type sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[16:53] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, is it in /etc/fstab?
[16:53] <EriC^^> heeen: type cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit && sudo blkid /dev/sda1 and paste the uuid
[16:54] <heeen> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11247737/
[16:54] <heeen> /dev/sda1: LABEL="EFI" UUID="2860-11F4" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="EFI system partition" PARTUUID="0000324b-64fc-0000-ec08-000082610000"
[16:54] <EriC^^> ok, it's using that partition
[16:55] <EriC^^> heeen: let's try to create a new efi entry in the bootmgr
[16:55] <heeen> EriC^^: what I want is: I do nothing, osx boots normally, I hold alt - I can select my usb linux drive to boot from
[16:55] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, i was about to ask how you used to boot osx, it grub showed it or what
[16:55] <heeen> no
[16:55] <heeen> no grub
[16:55] <heeen> I would like to get rid of grub
[16:56] <EriC^^> heeen: type sudo efibootmgr -o 0080,0000
[16:56] <k1l> ruind: is there a pf for linux?
[16:56] <[Ex0r]> is it possible to install osx on a desktop computer?
[16:56] <heeen> what does it do
[16:56] <Spec-Chum> EriC^^: I could be wrong as I can't check, but I'm sure mine put used the windows efi partition automatically, without me asking it to.  Not sure if that's relevant?
[16:56] <EriC^^> heeen: it changes the boot order of the efi entries so osx is before ubuntu
[16:56] <k1l> [Ex0r]: thats better to ask the apple guys :)
[16:56] <[Ex0r]> lol they are all elitists
[16:57] <heeen> ok
[16:57] <k1l> [Ex0r]: that is obviously offtopic in here. try ##chat or #ubuntu-offtopic for that if you dont want to ask the apple channels
[16:57] <EriC^^> Spec-Chum: yeah it uses it, the problem here is that the efi partition is on another disk entirely
[16:57] <kichawa> hi folks
[16:57] <heeen> why is ubuntu at 0000 though :/
[16:57] <kichawa> Could anybody download for me this file
[16:57] <kichawa> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=817897
[16:58] <kichawa> win98usb.tar
[16:58] <EriC^^> Spec-Chum: i guess it used it though
[16:58] <[Ex0r]> .
[16:58] <Spec-Chum> EriC^^: so is mine, windows is on a RAID0 SSD array, and ubuntu is on a completely different ssd
[16:58] <[Ex0r]> ..*
[16:58] <EriC^^> Spec-Chum: oh ok
[16:58] <heeen> EriC^^: do you think it is possible to remove ubuntu from sda1 and still be able to boot the usb drive? the live disk I can boot without it existing there
[16:58] <Spec-Chum> EriC^^: it wasn't what I was expecting either, I wouldn't say it's a bug, but it's not what I wanted
[16:59] <EriC^^> heeen: if you want to boot ubuntu, you could add it to the efibootmgr and manually run it
[17:00] <EriC^^> Spec-Chum: yeah
[17:00] <Spec-Chum> EriC^^: everything worked and it booted fine, however.  Grub was on the actual ubuntu drive
[17:00] <EriC^^> heeen: we can create the entry and have it later in the list, and it should boot ubuntu and have the default one as macosx
[17:00] <heeen> EriC^^: how does it work for live disks
[17:01] <Spec-Chum> Home time from work!   BYEEE!
[17:01] <EriC^^> heeen: live disks it just has the usb first in the order and it just boots that in uefi mode, there's an .efi file in the live usb
[17:01] <heeen> so can we do that
[17:01] <EriC^^> heeen: having ubuntu's .efi on sda1 won't matter
[17:01] <heeen> EriC^^: why can't (g)parted enumerate live disks
[17:01] <EriC^^> heeen: it just won't be a standalone install though, if you put the usb somewhere else it wouldn't boot
[17:02] <heeen> then lets put it on the disk itself, just like a live drive?
[17:02] <EriC^^> heeen: i'd rather you had a separate efi in the usb itself too, but you have to create a fat32 partition and stuff
[17:02] <EriC^^> as you wish..
[17:02] <heeen> oh ok
[17:02] <EriC^^> heeen: ok, cool
[17:02] <heeen> well
[17:02] <heeen> I wonder why it didn'T have one before though
[17:03] <heeen> how big does it need to be
[17:03] <EriC^^> 300mb is fine
[17:04] <EriC^^> heeen: you can have it boot like it used to, it might not have had it before too
[17:04] <heeen> I should probably unmount
[17:04] <EriC^^> heeen: do you recall seeing a fat32 partition in the usb before?
[17:05] <heeen> no
[17:05] <heeen> two partitions
[17:05] <heeen> one for / and one for /home
[17:05] <EriC^^> ok
[17:05] <heeen> it showed up as "windows" in the osx selector curiously
[17:06] <EriC^^> did you ever try the usb on another machine?
[17:07] <heeen> I used it as a virtual box drive
[17:07] <EriC^^> i meant did you ever boot ubuntu on another pc?
[17:08] <EriC^^> heeen: anyways, so do you want to fix the entries of the bootmanager or make an efi partition on the usb?
[17:09] <heeen> meh /mnt is busy, can't unmount
[17:09] <EriC^^> did you exit the chroot?
[17:09] <heeen> I think I did
[17:09] <heeen> exit, right?
[17:09] <EriC^^> yeah
[17:09] <EriC^^> which dir are you currently in?
[17:09] <heeen> can't unmount your bind mounts
[17:10] <heeen> ah now
[17:10] <heeen> nevermind
[17:11] <EriC^^> heeen: if it's a fresh install, i'd just use again and repartition
[17:12] <EriC^^> *install agai
[17:14] <zxc> EriC^^, telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[17:14] <zxc> what could it be?
[17:14] <heeen> no telnet server running on that host
[17:15] <EriC^^> which port are you trying to connect to?
[17:15] <zxc> 22
[17:15] <EriC^^> is there an ssh service running on the server?
[17:15] <k1l> zxc: 22 is ssh.
[17:15] <zxc> da
[17:15] <zxc> yes
[17:15] <EriC^^> zxc: maybe your setting's aren't right
[17:16] <EriC^^> zxc: try ssh user@host
[17:16] <zxc> how can I fix them and where ?
[17:16] <EriC^^> does ssh user@host work?
[17:17] <zxc> no
[17:17] <EriC^^> try telnet shell.bshellz.net 22
[17:17] <EriC^^> does that work?
[17:18] <zxc> it works
[17:19] <EriC^^> ok, maybe the server you're trying to connect to isn't working right
[17:22] <zxc> EriC^^, no it does not work ..
[17:23] <EriC^^> zxc: it doesn't work?
[17:23] <EriC^^> zxc: maybe you have a certain setting
[17:24] <EriC^^> zxc: you could try using the guest account to see if it's your user or a system-wide setting or something
[17:26] <Aras> i have a vmware ubuntu vm that runs the bitlbee irc daemon. i rebooted my host pc and vm this morning and now the host pc(win7/x64) cannot connect to the vm. if i login to the vm, bitlbee is running and answers connections from within the vm
[17:27] <emilio_> hi all
[17:27] <emilio_> I can't boot my Windows XP OS on a dual boot with Windows XP and Ubuntu 14.04.2. I already tried the command update-grub without improving.  I can see the menu entry in Grub but when I choose Windows XP to boot, the grub boot menu list pops out again without starting Windows. I can boot Ubuntu regularly.  Here is the output from Boot info
[17:28] <emilio_> http://pastebin.com/n9ULSu6r
[17:29] <emilio_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11248224/
[17:29] <emilio_> anyone knows where's the problem?

[17:45] <RobertLaptop> I am having a wierd problem with ubunutu I have never seen before.  I am running Ubunutu 12.04 and for some reason it wont route traffic out to <IP_ADDRESS>/16 address.  It access public resources and stuff on the local network <IP_ADDRESS>/24 but everything else on the 192.168.x.x network never seems to leave the box.
[17:47] <kappa1> hi, I'm using ubuntu on a machine with 12G of RAM. How can I encourage ubuntu to use more RAM and cache more things to improve performance?
[17:47] <RobertLaptop> Nothing in the firewall or UFW seems to be a problem.  Route -n shows just the default route.
[17:48] <pbx> kappa1, i think it will use as much ram as it needs. what problem are you trying to solve?
[17:48] <kappa1> pbx, not trying to solve any problem in particular... Just trying to make my system use more RAM
[17:49] <pbx> kappa1, that is a curious goal. i guess i'm asking, what leads you to believe it is not performing normally?
[17:50] <kappa1> pbx, what about this: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/dapper/man1/fs_setcachesize.1.html
[17:51] <kappa1> never mind
[17:51] <pbx> kappa1, i'll be candid and leave it at this: i think you're trying to twiddle something that doesn't need twiddling. if you want to learn about how the OS manages memory that's cool.
[17:51] <almark> if it works don't fix it :)
[17:52] <kappa1> but I have so much memory unused
[17:52] <kappa1> maybe I could use it to increase the sizes of caches
[17:55] <kappa1> pbx, by the way, I have this very same problem: http://askubuntu.com/questions/191407/restart-issues-with-imac-and-ubuntu-12-04
[17:55] <kappa1> have any ideas of what can be wrong?
[17:58] <Brayden5234> Hey
[17:58] <Brayden5234> Wow, hexchat is a lot better to use rather then that Kikiirc.com
[17:59] <Brayden5234> Hey any user online that can PM me help about installing ubuntu on an external hard drive?
[18:00] <Brayden5234> Anyone actually online out of the 1855 users?
[18:01] <Brayden5234> Seriously why is no one talking? Yesterday it was like a zoo...
[18:01] <OerHeks> Brayden5234, so how far did you get yesterday ?
[18:01] <Brayden5234> No where, everytime it is something new.
[18:02] <Brayden5234> This time it was getting stuck on finding file sytem...
[18:04] <OerHeks> Brayden5234, maybe it is a good idea to put your issue on askubuntu, it makes it clear for anyone what your system is, usb3, 3tb and such important info
[18:04] <OerHeks> else you need to answer all those details again and again
[18:04] <Brayden5234> Already did, got the same answers people told me here and they don't work.
[18:05] <sikio> emilio_: have you tried the boot-repair tool yet?
[18:05] <OerHeks> Well, i have seen usb3 issues before
[18:05] <OerHeks> try to hang it on usb2
[18:05] <emilio_> sikio: not yet
[18:05] <Brayden5234> #1 answer people give me is make the 4 different partitions and blah blah blah, when I do it exactly how they told me I get I/O errors.
[18:06] <Brayden5234> Tried that already OerHeks
[18:06] <bekks> Brayden5234: What exactly are you trying, and which errors do you get exactly?
[18:06] <sikio> boot a live cd as live environment and use these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
[18:06] <OerHeks> And do you have that askubuntu url?
[18:07] <Brayden5234> What I am exactly trying to do is install Ubuntu 15.04 to a 3TB external hard drive.
[18:07] <netlar> Can you get paid support for Ubuntu?
[18:07] <Brayden5234> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2279002
[18:08] <k1l> netlar: yes. ask canonical about that
[18:08] <OerHeks> http://askubuntu.com/questions/234145/does-canonical-provide-paid-support-for-individuals
[18:08] <OerHeks> 3 answers, desktop, server, cloud ( openstack)
[18:09] <netlar> OerHeks: Thanks
[18:10] <Brayden5234> I gave that forum link above by the way guys.
[18:13] <OerHeks> Brayden5234, try to hang it on usb2 if your machine has one (most have), to see if that makes any difference
[18:14] <Brayden5234> Did already,
[18:14] <Brayden5234> it didn't change a thing
[18:15] <OerHeks> It is worth mentioning it in your question.
[18:21] <Brayden5234> Wow just a bunch of people leaving and joining, is there anyway to block thos messages from showing up?

[18:30] <Brayden5234> Yeah
[18:30] <Logico> I'm using 14.04 but Startup Applications doen't appears in the Dash search, how do I check if it's intalled?
[18:30] <Logico> *doesn't
[18:31] <Brayden5234> Logico you do have the side bar on the left correct?
[18:31] <tnght> yo. why wouldn't
[18:31] <UserUS> cd /etc then ls
[18:31] <Logico> Brayden5234, yes
[18:31] <Kully3xf> gnome-session-properties from term @brayden
[18:31] <tnght> the find command find a file that clearly exists?
[18:31] <tnght> e.g. find -name "test.py"
[18:31] <Kully3xf> sorry @logico
[18:32] <Brayden5234> Haha I was like wait I didn't ask the question. xD
[18:32] <UserUS> ahh true. dont use my advice then
[18:33] <Logico> gnome-session-properties command doesn't open startup applications, like it's said on my google searches
[18:33] <Logico> tnght, I'll check it
[18:33] <Brayden5234> Startup applications? Like ubuntu store, thunderbird mail...etc?
[18:33] <UserUS> Oh you were looking for startup apps specifically. My bad, didn't read that part
[18:34] <Kully3xf> http://www.upubuntu.com/2011/11/how-to-add-applications-manually-to.html
[18:35] <Kully3xf> @logico try that
[18:35] <k1l> Logico: gnome-session-properties is the right one
[18:35] <k1l> Logico: if its not please tell what ubuntu that is exactly
[18:35] <Logico> nothing here o.O
[18:35] <UserUS> there is a thunderbird file
[18:35] <k1l> Logico: what ubuntu exactly? please tell "lsb_release -d" and used desktop
[18:36] <Logico> k1l, it's 14.04
[18:36] <Logico> it's this one:  http://askubuntu.com/questions/564196/startup-application-not-working
[18:36] <DexterF> 20GB sufficient for a base installation?
[18:37] <UserUS> DextarF: I'd use 60 if you plan to use it full time
[18:37] <Logico> sorry, wrong link, that's the one I intent: http://www.howtogeek.com/189995/how-to-manage-startup-applications-in-ubuntu-14.04/
[18:37] <k1l> Logico: press alt+f2 type "gnome-session-properties"
[18:37] <DexterF> UserUS: to become a media center frontend, so won't need much apart from a browser and kodi (fka xbmc) and a dvb backend
[18:38] <MonkeyDust> DexterF  what do you plan to do? hint: a vm provides less than 20GB and it works too
[18:38] <k1l> DexterF: for the plain system somthing about 15GB is enough.
[18:38] <UserUS> DextarF: 20 would work
[18:38] <Logico> k1l, it's there, but it doesn't looks like the screenshot of the second link I sent here
[18:39] <Logico> Ok, I figured it out, it's not what I'm looking for
[18:39] <k1l> Logico: could look different if you have different themes
[18:39] <Logico> thank you guys!
[18:39] <Logico> k1l, I think that's my problem here, thanks!
[18:45] <c0mrad3> does any one uses ubuntu on mac
[18:45] <lotuspsychje> !mac | c0mrad3
[18:45] <heeen> christ
[18:45] <heeen> kubuntu installer failed to install EFI in the correct partition
[18:46] <c0mrad3> well lotuspsychje it doesn't help me at all
[18:46] <heeen> so STILL installed in sda1 instead of my new fat32 partition
[18:46] <lotuspsychje> c0mrad3: share your specifi issue in this channel mate
[18:46] <c0mrad3> camara doesn't work
[18:46] <kichawa> anybody with account ubuntu forum?
[18:48] <lotuspsychje> !efi | heeen
[18:49] <lotuspsychje> c0mrad3: ubuntu version, wich mac, errors on camera? external or internal camera/webcam?
[18:49] <heeen> yeah, I have been bitten by boot repair just 2 hours ago
[18:49] <epinky> need some backup on L2TP
[18:49] <MichaelP>  is there a chromium-browser 43 for ubuntu ?
[18:49] <heeen> and now I again have a OSX drive that does not boot
[18:49] <mc0e> On launchpad, do bugs get reopened, or do we create new ones?  I.e. If a bug has been closed because it was assumed that it only applied to an old release, what's the correct way to report that the situation is ongoing?
[18:50] <c0mrad3> ubuntu 14.04
[18:50] <Craigwell> heeen: what happened with boot-repair?
[18:50] <epinky> anyone's got experience on establishing tunnels in L2TP via openswan, xl2tpd and ppp?
[18:50] <Craigwell> heeen: you couldn't use it on your bootusb only
[18:50] <Craigwell> ?
[18:50] <heeen> it wrote into /dev/sda1, which is the builtin ssd EFI drive
[18:50] <lotuspsychje> MichaelP: its best to use chromium version for your ubuntu version
[18:50] <geri> hi i have some issues with formatting the partition.... http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150520/k757s2nt.png
[18:51] <lotuspsychje> epinky: maybe a question for the ##networking guys?
[18:51] <Craigwell> heeen: ohhhh. gross
[18:51] <heeen> now I have ubuntu there and the osx partition does not boot anymore
[18:51] <Craigwell> you have a working grub menu?
[18:51] <heeen> well my usb drive boots
[18:51] <MichaelP> lotuspsychje: Version 41.0.2272.76 ... don't like plasma 5 very well
[18:51] <Craigwell> so basically traded one problem for another
[18:52] <geri> hi huys i need some help with partitioning of a sd card!
[18:52] <geri> guys
[18:52] <epinky> lotuspsychje: I tried, but everyone laughed at me
[18:52] <lotuspsychje> !bug | mc0e
[18:52] <heeen> Craigwell: I created a fat32 partition on the usb drive just for efi
[18:52] <heeen> and it did not use it
[18:52] <heeen> when installing
[18:52] <lotuspsychje> !info gparted | geri install this
[18:52] <geri> lotuspsychje: it stops here: http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150520/k757s2nt.png
[18:52] <heeen> it just used sda1 again
[18:52] <heeen> what the heck
[18:53] <geri> wiriting superblock ... but stops!
[18:53] <k1l> geri: stops? how long did you wait?
[18:53] <mc0e> lotuspsychje: yeah, but given that it's already been reported but erroneously closed, should this be a new bug or an extension of the old one?
[18:53] <geri> 1 min
[18:53] <k1l> geri: and why is it a virtualbox?
[18:53] <geri> bc the host os is osx and i run ubuntu in the vm
[18:53] <Craigwell> heeen: hindsight.. wonder if removing the ssd would avoid that problem
[18:53] <Craigwell> too late now obviously
[18:54] <geri> k1l: oh now it progresses after 2 min :D
[18:54] <lotuspsychje> mc0e: if you file a new bug, mostly other bugs will point to each other
[18:54] <Craigwell> what about an osx boot recovery tool ? I have no experience with osx
[18:54] <heeen> Craigwell: huh? ssd is soldered in macbook airs
[18:54] <Craigwell> ohhh
[18:54] <k1l> geri: yes, with all that stuff involved give it more time
[18:54] <geri> k1l: it said 1/116 for 4 minutes!
[18:54] <geri> i mean 0/116
[18:55] <lotuspsychje> mc0e: maybe we can help with your issue?
[18:55] <Craigwell> heeen: any of the stuff here any use to you? http://www.maclife.com/article/howtos/fix-mac-bootup-problems-recovery-mode
[18:56] <geri> k1l: is virtual box the best option to run a VM?
[18:56] <Craigwell> heeen: do you have a grub menu now when you boot without usb ?
[18:57] <zerowaitstate> geri: virtualbox is probably the easiest to work with of the free ones
[18:57] <pbx> geri, it's free and widely used.
[18:57] <zerowaitstate> geri: probably not the best performance
[18:57] <geri> is it possible to install ubuntu after installing windows 64 bit?
[18:57] <Craigwell> geri: yes
[18:57] <geri> what about boot loader
[18:57] <geri> i want a dual partition
[18:57] <Craigwell> geri: that is the optimal order of operations. Install windows first, then ubuntu
[18:57] <geri> dual boot :D
[18:57] <Craigwell> geri: yes, grub is your boot loader for that
[18:58] <lotuspsychje> !dualboot > geri
[18:58] <geri> lotuspsychje: the bot :D
[18:58] <heeen> hmm I changed the boot order using efi manager anmd that has helped
[18:58] <mc0e> lotuspsychje: I suspect the solution is to bring libcurl3 up to stream with the upstream source.  Same bug as #1205185 I think, and I'm guessing it's http://sourceforge.net/p/curl/bugs/1451/
[18:59] <Craigwell> geri: the ubuntu install cd / usb will allow you to install alongside, on separate partition. You can also choose what to do with partition sizes etc
[18:59] <mc0e> lotuspsychje: but it looks like similar bugs may have come and gone from libcurl at various points.  e.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=548269 looks very similar also.
[19:00] <mc0e> ubottu: ditto
[19:00] <geri> Craigwell: cool!
[19:00] <lotuspsychje> mc0e: are you on ubuntu?
[19:02] <Craigwell> geri: what version of windows?
[19:02] <RoBo_V1>  hey guys how can i make some bash script to run at particular time ?
[19:02] <mc0e> lotuspsychje: this Vagrantfile is enough to demo the bug:  http://pastebin.com/PGtC8cWK
[19:02] <geri> Craigwell: windows 7 64 bit
[19:02] <mc0e> lotuspsychje: the gpg command is one that's used in installing docker.
[19:02] <zerowaitstate> RoBo_V1: cron if you want to run it over and over at a certain time, "at" if you want a one-off
[19:02] <Craigwell> geri: yeah same as my setup. you should be fine
[19:03] <zerowaitstate> !cron | RoBo_V1
[19:03] <Craigwell> unless uefi bios?? anyone?
[19:03] <zerowaitstate> !at | RoBo_V1
[19:03] <zerowaitstate> doh
[19:03] <RoBo_V1> yes zerowaitstate cron is like at startup everytime right ?
[19:03] <zerowaitstate> RoBo_V1: no
[19:03] <zerowaitstate> RoBo_V1: cron runs on a schedule, not at startup
[19:04] <zerowaitstate> RoBo_V1: init scripts run at startup
[19:04] <RoBo_V1> crontab
[19:04] <RoBo_V1> okk cool
[19:04] <RoBo_V1> im doing man at, it says no entry for at
[19:04] <RoBo_V1> why
[19:05] <zerowaitstate> RoBo_V1: you may not have "at" installed
[19:05] <lotuspsychje> !info at | RoBo_V1
[19:06] <RoBo_V1> sudo apt-cache search at , gives lot of list how serach specific
[19:06] <zerowaitstate> RoBo_V1: apt-cache show at
[19:06] <zerowaitstate> otherwise, you are searching for every package that has "at" somewhere in the name
[19:07] <blib> on a ubuntu box, how do I measure the resolution of the hardware timer?
[19:07] <RoBo_V1> ah here we go, thank you zerowaitstate :)
[19:08] <lotuspsychje> blib: is this what you need? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareClock
[19:08] <ki7mt> blib, You referring to premeption C structures ?
[19:09] <blib> I need to measure when I received a packet from a hardware device which connects using usb.
[19:10] <ki7mt> blib, HRT is do what your after: see man time (High-Resolution Timers)
[19:10] <ki7mt> .. may do ..
[19:11] <lotuspsychje_> !details | blib what are you actually trying?
[19:11] <blib> ki7mt: the high res timer - is it enabled by default on 15.04?
[19:12] <blib> lotuspsychje: I have a hardware device from which I read data. Its a usb device. I want to accurately time when I received the data
[19:14] <lotuspsychje_> blib: you wanna time the transfer of the data from usb to pc?
[19:14] <ki7mt> blib, Not exactly, you have to code the function using time.h header file. But there maybe some apps out there that will do it, I've not looked much.
[19:15] <ki7mt> blib, this is a few years old, but the concept should be relevant: http://tdistler.com/2010/06/27/high-performance-timing-on-linux-windows
[19:15] <Bray90820> Can someone explain to me why I am getting this error
[19:15] <Bray90820> https://gist.github.com/anonymous/d1f9ca0f510d7281af4e
[19:16] <lotuspsychje_> Bray90820: you have been asking this from this morning
[19:17] <userx4acd> Hi are the packages in Ubuntu supposed to be relatively new versions ones? for the latest version e.g 15.04. i.e do they update non Desktop environment packages between releases?
[19:17] <lotuspsychje_> Bray90820: have you actually tryed what you been sugested?
[19:17] <Bray90820> No one suggested anything
[19:17] <xangua> !latest | userx4acd
[19:17] <ki7mt> blib, and digging a little further, you may need a high res kernel: dmesg | grep -i "high resolution"  which 14.04 does not appear to have it enabled.
[19:17] <lotuspsychje_> Bray90820: i have triggered you the mount page for sure
[19:18] <Craigwell> don't shoot me guys,
[19:18] <Craigwell> but i'm on to something
[19:18] <Craigwell> i've been fighting to fix the boot of an ntfs partition for about a week now,
[19:18] <userx4acd> xangua: Not helpful ... I realise that for example Eclipse 3.8 which is out of development for ages has been in the past few Ubuntu releases and even the just released 15.04
[19:18] <userx4acd> Eclipse 4x has been around for a long time and most developers use 4x.
[19:18] <Bray90820> lotuspsychje_: the one from ubottu
[19:19] <lotuspsychje_> Bray90820: yes
[19:19] <userx4acd> Eclipse 3.8 is a 2011 thing!
[19:19] <Bray90820> lotuspsychje_: that's just a basic page not much help
[19:20] <Craigwell> finally see this: According to the info in the boot sector, sda3 starts at sector 28919808. But according to the info from fdisk, sda3 starts at sector 120484446."
[19:20] <blib> ki7mt: thanks
[19:21] <lotuspsychje_> Bray90820: maybe this can help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2127616
[19:22] <lotuspsychje_> Bray90820: and maybe the #ubuntu-server guys can help also
[19:24] <lotuspsychje_> Craigwell: its best you focus on your main problem, and re-ask here in chat once in a while to get it solved
[19:25] <lyndel4> llo
[19:26] <lyndel4> hello
[19:26] <lotuspsychje_> lyndel4: welcome, what can we do for you?
[19:26] <lyndel4> i installled gnome on ubuntu 15.04 and i seem to off lost the login manager
[19:26] <lyndel4>  1
[19:26] <lyndel4> down vote
[19:26] <lyndel4>
[19:26] <lyndel4> Open a terminal and execute:
[19:26] <lyndel4> sudo apt-get install gnome
[19:26] <lyndel4> sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[19:27] <lotuspsychje_> !paste | lyndel4
[19:27] <aryklein> ubuntu cloud image comes with grub. Is there any reason not to use grub2?
[19:27] <Craigwell> lotuspsychje: that is my main problem at this point. every thing else works
[19:27] <lotuspsychje_> Craigwell: what is?
[19:28] <lotuspsychje_> !gnome | lyndel4
[19:28] <Craigwell> lotuspsychje_ : occasionally i help others while I'm waiting around, is that what you mean?
[19:28] <lyndel4> hello
[19:28] <lyndel4> u guys see what i said?
[19:29] <lyndel4> i did what was on this site http://askubuntu.com/questions/614657/install-gnome-desktop-ubuntu-15-04
[19:29]  * almark nods
[19:29] <MonkeyDust> lyndel4  did you have a question? keep it in one line, that's easier to read and repeat
[19:29] <lyndel4> but after i restarted the ubuntu login screen is gone and replaced with gnome one
[19:30] <mc0e> lotuspsychje: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/curl/+bug/1457192
[19:30] <lotuspsychje_> lyndel4: maybe you want to try ubuntu-gnome? http://ubuntugnome.org/
[19:30] <lyndel4> all i wanted was the option to choose gnome at login screen not let it replace the login screen
[19:31] <Paddy_NI> lyndel4, It will have asked you during installation
[19:32] <lyndel4> is there anyway to revert the changes? or get ack ubuntu default login screen with login sound and just have the option to choose desktop envirmoent at login?
[19:32] <Craigwell> any of you guys good enough with windows to know what I can do to fix this problem? I cannot boot from ntfs/ win 7 partition, and I receive this info from boot-repair "According to the info in the boot sector, sda3 starts at sector 28919808. But according to the info from fdisk, sda3 starts at sector 120484446."
[19:32] <lotuspsychje_> lyndel4: its reccomended to install fresh
[19:32] <Craigwell> http://pastebin.com/xu9EA7es
[19:32] <SonikkuAmerica> lyndel4: Alternatively, you can open a terminal and use [ sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm ] and choose lightdm at the next screen.
[19:32] <Paddy_NI> lyndel4, Yeah just a moment I cannot remember of the top of my head
[19:32] <Craigwell> i'm trying the #windows guys, but no luck
[19:32] <Paddy_NI> lyndel4, what SonikkuAmerica said
[19:32] <lyndel4> ok
[19:33] <SonikkuAmerica> lyndel4: After that, restart
[19:33] <fxmulder> how can I fix a half-installed dpkg?
[19:33] <lyndel4> br thanks
[19:33] <ki7mt> fxmulder, half-installed ? can you expand on that a bit?
[19:34] <fxmulder> I try apt-get install and I get dpkg: error processing package dpkg (--configure):  package dpkg is not ready for configuration cannot configure (current status `half-installed')
[19:34] <MonkeyDust> fxmulder  try sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a
[19:34] <Craigwell> sudo dpkg --configure -a
[19:35] <Craigwell> fixed mine, not sure if a difference with "reconfigure" vs "configure"
[19:35] <MonkeyDust> i mistyped
[19:35] <SonikkuAmerica> Craigwell: 2 different things altogether
[19:35] <fxmulder> doesn't seem to have fixed it
[19:36] <Craigwell> SonikkuAmerica, gotcha
[19:37] <SonikkuAmerica> Craigwell: dpkg-reconfigure $PACKAGE allows $PACKAGE's configuration to be reconfigged, where dpkg --configure will configure dpkg itself
[19:37] <Craigwell> SonikkuAmerica, Understood. My bad. Sometimes I shouldn't try to help !
[19:37] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^: evening mate
[19:38] <EriC^^> lotuspsychje: evening :)
[19:38] <SonikkuAmerica> Craigwell: Don't worry, we all have different skill levels
[19:38] <fxmulder> I don't suppose I can uninstall and reinstall dpkg
[19:38] <SonikkuAmerica> I've only been here for 5 years
[19:38] <SonikkuAmerica> fxmulder: Why rould you want to do that??
[19:39] <fxmulder> SonikkuAmerica: because dpkg is broke
[19:39] <fxmulder> well the installation is at least apparently
[19:40] <SonikkuAmerica> fxmulder: did you [ sudo dpkg --configure -a ]?
[19:40] <ki7mt> fxmulder, what package it is that keep breaking ?
[19:40] <fxmulder> SonikkuAmerica: I did
[19:40] <fxmulder> ki7mt: `apt-get install` fails; dpkg: error processing package dpkg (--configure): package dpkg is not ready for configuration cannot configure (current status `half-installed')
[19:41] <SonikkuAmerica> fxmulder: so dpkg itself is half-installed?
[19:41] <ki7mt> fxmulder Yes, but install what <package-name>
[19:41] <fxmulder> that's what it says
[19:41] <fxmulder> ki7mt: no package, I am just running apt-get install
[19:42] <lotuspsychje> fxmulder: maybe you should pastebin your whole text?
[19:42] <SonikkuAmerica> ki7mt: It wouldn't matter if dpkg *itself* is broken
[19:43] <k1l> why would you want to uninstall dpkg? o_O
[19:43] <ki7mt> fxmulder, Ok, well first, you need sudo to install anything .. but running just apt-get install should yield a lock error, as your not using sudo.
[19:43] <fxmulder> ki7mt: you don't need sudo if you are already root
[19:43] <Bray90820> lotuspsychje: Thanks that last link you sent me helped a lot
[19:44] <lyndel4> guys thanks alot
[19:44] <lyndel4> that fixed it
[19:44] <lotuspsychje> Bray90820: no prob mate, hope you got it fixxed
[19:44] <lotuspsychje> !yay | lyndel4
[19:44] <ki7mt> fxmulder, Ok, so now we're getting somwehere, why are you root ?
[19:44] <lyndel4> seems the instructions on that site was incorrect reconfiguing lightdm fixed it thanks again
[19:44] <lyndel4> thanks lol
[19:44] <fxmulder> ki7mt: because I'm doing things that require root
[19:45] <auronandace> fxmulder: that is why sudo exists
[19:45] <fxmulder> taht is a whole different argument
[19:45] <ki7mt> fxmulder, I hat to be the bearer of bad news, but root, on a RootSudo system is not good.
[19:45] <ki7mt> .. hate ..
[19:45] <fxmulder> I'm am running the command as root that is all that is really needed
[19:46] <k1l> fxmulder: the half-installed dpkg is just the endproduct. what is the whole story?
[19:46] <auronandace> fxmulder: what does cat /etc/issue say?
[19:46] <uio> Hey - anyone know if Numix circle icons are opensource, or just monetarily free ?
[19:46] <fxmulder> auronandace: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[19:47] <ki7mt> fxmulder, and did you enable the root account ?
[19:47] <fxmulder> ki7mt: yup I am root right now
[19:47] <auronandace> fxmulder: what is the output of apt-get install -f
[19:47] <fxmulder> auronandace: the -f results in the same output
[19:47] <ki7mt> fxmulder, it's toast .. that's is a pandora's box to try and sort out.
[19:47] <lotuspsychje> uio: there's a ppa of it here: https://launchpad.net/~numix/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[19:48] <uio> lotuspsychje:  Thanks - does that mean it's libre ?
[19:48] <lotuspsychje> uio: yes free to install, but add a ppa at your own risk
[19:48] <lotuspsychje> !ppa | uio
[19:48] <k1l> fxmulder: so what did you do before you came here with that half installed dpkg?
[19:49] <uio> lotuspsychje: Okay,; thanks for the info.
[19:49] <fxmulder> k1l: I tried to install the libstdc++5 which then complained about dpkg
[19:49] <lotuspsychje> !info libstdc++5
[19:49] <k1l> fxmulder: i doubt that. so was that from a ppa?
[19:50] <Rapture> on ubuntu 14.04 I did a clean install of memcached (apt-get install memcached) and I get this error when start/restarting: Starting memcached: Can't use an undefined value as a subroutine reference at /usr/share/memcached/scripts/start-memcached line 74, <$etchandle> line 52.
[19:50] <Rapture> any ideas?
[19:50] <fxmulder> k1l: nope apt-get install libstdc++5
[19:50] <fxmulder> we have a program that is linked against it
[19:50] <k1l> fxmulder: and then you removed dpkg?
[19:50] <fxmulder> k1l: nope, I then tried apt-get install which failed for the same reason, did some google searches and came here
[19:51] <auronandace> fxmulder: are you able to pastebin your sources.list file?
[19:52] <fxmulder> http://nsab.us/public/sources.list
[19:52] <ki7mt> k1l, No he's getting the err when trying to install while in the root account.
[19:52] <lotuspsychje> Rapture: could this help? https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-use-memcache-on-ubuntu-14-04
[19:53] <ventura> is spotify a unity killer? my system is freezing periodically…
[19:53] <ki7mt> k1l, he enabled root, changed to the root account, and is using apt-get install <x,y,z> but the root not configured for it.
[19:53] <ki7mt> is not
[19:54] <auronandace> fxmulder: is there anything in /etc/apt/sources.list/d/ ?
[19:54] <fxmulder> no /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ is empty
[19:55] <lotuspsychje> ventura: check with htop if it rises your cpu
[19:56] <k1l> fxmulder: well, libstdc++5 doesnt even have dpkg as a depency.
[19:56] <fxmulder> k1l: I'm guessing something happened prior to this install to break dpkg
[19:57] <k1l> fxmulder: can you pastebin the outputs of the last apt-get tries? and in /var/log/apt from the install of libstdc++5 and the time afterwards
[19:57] <fxmulder> I haven't logged into this for quite some time so I don't know what that might be
[19:57] <ventura> lotuspsychje: cpu and mem consume don’t rise
[19:57] <ventura> even aflter closing, the system becomes unusable
[19:57] <lotuspsychje> ventura: try running spotify from terminal perhaps for relevant errors?
[19:58] <ventura> trying...
[19:58] <ventura> thx
[19:58] <lotuspsychje> ventura: or tail -f /var/log/syslog and tail -f /var/log/dmesg while you run/close spotify
[19:58] <fxmulder> the first entry in history.log shows my Commandline: apt-get install libstdc++5 -y resulting in Error: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[19:59] <k1l> fxmulder: please pastebin, details matter here a lot
[20:00] <lotuspsychje> ventura: did you install spotify client stable?
[20:01] <solsTiCe> hi. I want to compile from source network-manager to include a fix. Is dropping the patch in debian/patches enough to get things building correctly ?
[20:01] <Rapture> thanks lotuspsychje, gave that a glance and unfortunately no help
[20:01] <Rapture> that's more for setup/config
[20:02] <lotuspsychje> Rapture: dig into your logs mate, there must be happening something
[20:03] <lotuspsychje> Rapture: can you define whats happening with your system to get 'unstable'?
[20:03] <Rapture> error message posted is from the log
[20:04] <Rapture> no other issues I can see, just memcached error: Execution of '/etc/init.d/memcached start' returned 255: Starting memcached: Can't use an undefined value as a subroutine reference at /usr/share/memcached/scripts/start-memcached line 74, <$etchandle> line 52.
[20:04] <salafi> does anyone know GUI compiler for fortran
[20:05] <MonkeyDust> !info gfortran | salafi
[20:05] <lotuspsychje> Rapture: i found a #memcached channel :p maybe they can help?
[20:06] <Pici> MonkeyDust: Is that graphical? the g probably stands for gnu, not gnome.
[20:06] <Rapture> thanks lotuspsychje, I posted my question in the channel a while back, will hope for a reply
[20:07] <lotuspsychje> Rapture: oh ok
[20:08] <salafi> i'm using 14.04 lts been searching for but only to get the gnu cli
[20:09] <cryptic0> folks, is there a C version of rename available for Ubuntu?
[20:09] <cryptic0> the perl version does not have some functionality I need
[20:11] <MonkeyDust> salafi  i found this http://www.absoft.com/Absoft_Linux_Compiler.htm
[20:15] <salafi> MokeyDust thanks  i will check it out now
[20:16] <Pici> cryptic0: really? I've always found the perl version to have more features.
[20:16] <cryptic0> Pici: rename -v foo bar foo* does not work
[20:17] <mmercer> lo all; what is the proper apt list for an 11.04 distro to use to get to 11.10 ( i know 11.04 is not supported;  i dont have any choice,  this is an india datacenter, so I have to upgrade the "choices" I have )
[20:17] <lotuspsychje> !eol | mmercer
[20:17] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades mmercer
[20:18] <mmercer> ty
[20:18] <Pici> cryptic0: that would be rename 's/foo/bar/' foo*
[20:18] <victoria> hola
[20:18] <Pici> cryptic0: but let me see if I can find a C version in our repos, now I'm curious.
[20:18] <lotuspsychje> !es | victoria
[20:19] <dyst> gracias ubottu
[20:19] <ki7mt> from the UB RootSudo WIKI:  Logging in to X as root may cause very serious trouble. If you believe you need a root account to perform a certain action, please consult the official support channels first, to make sure there is not a better alternative. .. but they dont say what trouble or why.

[20:21] <ki7mt> fxmulder, I can't tell you exactly why apt-get fails the way it is, I just know, from my past dealings with it, I hit similar problems.
[20:22] <ki7mt> when using the root account that is.
[20:23] <MonkeyDust> found this eol-workaround in the logs of this channel -- it refers to old-relases.com -- how safe is it, can I azdvice it, if someone wants to do upgrades in an eol release? http://termbin.com/vhjo
[20:25] <Pici> !eolupgrades
[20:25] <ki7mt> MonkeyDust, I would think the biggest issue would be security holes, like the ssl and bash security holes recently found and fixed.
[20:27] <Pici> cryptic0: I see it being managed by the alternatives system, but no other alternative than prename... gonna check more later, but at this point it looks like the best option is to learn the perl rename syntax.
[20:28] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust: i wouldnt take the risk and just clean install
[20:35] <cotalinux> hello
[20:36] <cotalinux> I was wondering what is a good way to separate web development on ubuntu from a default ubuntu desktop
[20:37] <auronandace> cotalinux: have a separate user account?
[20:38] <cotalinux> hm
[20:38] <cotalinux> for example
[20:38] <cotalinux> let's say you use the LAMP stack and something breaks in the new version of php
[20:38] <cotalinux> if I have a separate account does that affect the system overall?
[20:38] <Ninjahmahs> hey guys
[20:39] <Ninjahmahs> anyone have a spare moment help me source why my hdd seems to be constantly active since a reboot just recently
[20:39] <Ninjahmahs> also noticing my cpu usage is fluctuating all over the place, while im pretty much idle
[20:40] <auronandace> Ninjahmahs: might be checking for updates
[20:40] <bekks> Ninjahmahs: Did you take a look at a process monitor yet?
[20:40] <Ninjahmahs> doesnt seem like it
[20:41] <Ninjahmahs> when i look at process able and filter it descending cpu% it shows maybe 7%
[20:41] <bekks> Ninjahmahs: Which is 7% above idle.
[20:41] <Ninjahmahs> but then overall im getting a reading of 20-35%
[20:41] <Ninjahmahs> yet in the graphical monitor all cores are fluctuating around
[20:42] <bekks> Ninjahmahs: Forget that inaccurate graphical thing, take a look at "top" in a console window.
[20:42] <Ninjahmahs> says tasks 1 running
[20:42] <kostkon> Ninjahmahs, cron daily runs update checks and updatedb each day, it could be it
[20:44] <Ninjahmahs> mmm just seems odd, like even if i look at system up date it just says system is up to date, no sign of scan
[20:44] <kostkon> Ninjahmahs, updatedb keeps your drives busy for a couple of mins each time
[20:44] <cotalinux> has anyone used LXC? https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/lxc.html
[20:44] <cotalinux> this looks like something I want
[20:44] <bekks> cotalinux: I bet a lot of people already used LXC. But whats your actual question? :)
[20:45] <Ninjahmahs> system monitor shows some baloo_file_extractor occassionally pop up, dissappear then pop up again in monitor
[20:45] <cotalinux> I guess if it's something I should try or not :D
[20:46] <bekks> Ninjahmahs: Use top in a terminal windows.
[20:46] <bekks> *window.
[20:46] <Ninjahmahs> i am
[20:46] <k1l> cotalinux: how could we decide if it will work for you or not? :) just try it yourself
[20:47] <kostkon> Ninjahmahs, apparently it's yet another file indexer like locate/updatedb, You might want to check this askubuntu q out http://askubuntu.com/questions/437635/how-to-turn-off-baloo-in-kde-4-13
[20:47] <bekks> Ninjahmahs: You just said you are using System Monitor.
[20:47] <Ninjahmahs> im looking at that and the top output
[20:47] <Ninjahmahs> sorry lol

[20:53] <lotuspsychje> Guest49455: install vlc?
[20:53] <k1l> lourdes: do you close them the right way?
[20:53] <lourdes> k1l, yep, and I didn't save the session
[20:54] <k1l> you have them on autostart? (maybe the program made that itself?)
[20:55] <lotuspsychje> Trudko: http://serverquestions.com/questions/cajp/dual-booting-windows-8-and-ubuntu-have-boot-error-0xc0000098

[20:56] <Garvey> Hey room.  No USB on boot. No blank CDs. Installed 8.04 off old install CD. Upgrading from alternate isos. Question: With alternate CD/isos, can I upgrade from LTS to LTS, or must I go through all the versions?
[20:57] <Ninjahmahs> why do people think having silly things that do stuff without asking is a good idea, unless they are actually a good idea lol
[20:57] <lotuspsychje> Garvey: try a recent lubuntu on it perhaps fresh install
[20:57] <nj__> thanks
[20:57] <Garvey> lotus: I can't fresh install because I have no blank CDs
[20:58] <nj__> I ask because I have a dell tripping over itself with that driver in 14.04
[20:58] <lotuspsychje> Garvey: you can download the 'plop boot manager' and burn to a cdrom, then force to boot your ubuntu usb
[20:58] <nj__> works fine in 12.04 though
[20:58] <k1l> lourdes: hmm, dont know then

[21:01] <mohamed> hello

[21:04] <Ben64> Guest15575: being offtopic, posting many lines
[21:04] <Garvey> Lotus: Thanks, but I had issues last night with a grub iso installation. I just want to know if I can upgrade with alternate LTS isos or if I need all the other versions.
[21:04] <Guest15575> #ununtu-offtopic
[21:05] <Ben64> Garvey: it will save you a ton of effort if you just installed 14.04 instead of doing a bunch of eol upgrades
[21:05] <auronandace> Garvey: you can upgrade from one lts to the next directly
[21:06] <Garvey> I've already got the LTS alternate isos downloaded. I don't want to do *another#* DL of 14 installation iso, AND create a menuentry, AND partition my HD, AND reboot
[21:06] <Ben64> Garvey: i guarantee you, upgrading is harder
[21:07] <Garvey> Ben: Ok, I'll take your word for it :P
[21:07] <Garvey> Grub2 or Unetbootin?
[21:08] <ruind> does ubuntu have a package for BSD's Packet Filter?
[21:08] <Ben64> Garvey: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot
[21:10] <Garvey> Ben64: I don't have Grub2 installed. Easy to do with terminal?
[21:11] <Ben64> Garvey: pretty sure grub2 was around in 8.04
[21:11] <Garvey> Ben64: Grub2 wasn't until 11.x
[21:11] <Ben64> thats not true
[21:12] <Garvey> Ben64: misread https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing
[21:12] <Garvey> Ben64: chris@chris-desktop:~$ grub-install -v
[21:12] <Garvey> grub-install (GNU GRUB 0.97)
[21:13] <OerHeks> from Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) AFAIK
[21:13] <Garvey> could be--I'm at 9.04

[21:15] <FlyingPersian> hi
[21:15] <dragon21> Hi
[21:16] <dragon21> I think lm-sensord brick my monitor :o
[21:16] <dragon21> what I do now :o
[21:16] <dragon21> sensors*
[21:16] <FlyingPersian> I've a FreeNAS server with a VirtualBox jail. It uses phpVirtualBox as GUI instead of the normal VM Manager from virtualbox. I'm trying to install VirtualBox Guest Additions by mounting the iso via the phpvirtualBox GUI, but I can't get the drive inside ubuntu to work
[21:17] <bekks> Ask the FreeNAS or phpvirtualbox support.
[21:17] <Garvey> Wow, well, while I figure out how to upgrade GRUB on an unsupported version, I'll just start upgrading with my alternate isos... :/
[21:17] <FlyingPersian> when I do "mount /dev/sr0 I get "can't find /dev/sr0 in /etc/fstab"
[21:17] <FlyingPersian> fuck you bekks :D
[21:17] <FlyingPersian> srsly
[21:17] <FlyingPersian> why are you so sure that it isn't an ubuntu issue?
[21:18] <bekks> FlyingPersian: Mind your language seriously.
[21:18] <bekks> BEcause you have an issue on your FreeNAS (not Ubuntu) server?
[21:18] <FlyingPersian> but it's ubuntu that's not recognizing the driev, not freenas
[21:18] <EriC^^> FlyingPersian: you're mounting it wrong
[21:18] <bekks> Because you did not attach the ISO to the virtual cdrom drive.
[21:19] <EriC^^> FlyingPersian: if you don't give mount a dir it will look in /etc/fstab
[21:19] <FlyingPersian> how do I have to mount it then EriC^^ ?
[21:19] <bekks> As has been told three time in #vbox
[21:19] <EriC^^> FlyingPersian: mount drive /mountpoint
[21:19] <FlyingPersian> I did EriC^^ , hang on
[21:19] <FlyingPersian> /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
[21:19] <FlyingPersian> that's my line in fstab
[21:19] <EriC^^> what?
[21:19] <EriC^^> O.o
[21:19] <johngreco> How can I change the Boot-loader priority?
[21:19] <FlyingPersian> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1374330&p=8622979#post8622979
[21:19] <bekks> You dont need any fstab line for mounting a cd.
[21:19] <FlyingPersian> found that here
[21:20] <FlyingPersian> that's what people said when I googled bekks
[21:20] <EriC^^> FlyingPersian: remove that line from fstab if you only added that cause of the error
[21:20] <FlyingPersian> okay
[21:20] <FlyingPersian> I did add it cuz of the error
[21:20] <FlyingPersian> what else could I do then?
[21:20] <EriC^^> FlyingPersian: ok, remove it and type sudo mount /dev/sr0 /mnt
[21:21] <bekks> ttach the ISO to your VM, and mount it.
[21:21] <FlyingPersian> thanks EriC^^
[21:21] <FlyingPersian> you saved my day
[21:22] <FlyingPersian> and see bekks, I told you it't not an phpvirtualbox nor freenas issue
[21:22] <Aras> i have a vmware ubuntu vm that runs the bitlbee irc daemon. i rebooted my host pc and vm this morning and now the host pc(win7/x64) cannot connect to the vm. if i login to the vm, bitlbee is running and answers connections from within the vm
[21:25] <EriC^^> FlyingPersian: no problem, and bekks meant those channels would know more about those programs
[21:25] <FlyingPersian> yes, he told me in another chan also, but I was sure that it's not related to phpVirtualBo
[21:25] <FlyingPersian> x
[21:27] <garrettr> I have some questions about building kernels for Ubuntu. Is this the best place to ask them?
[21:28] <MonkeyDust> garrettr  there's also #ubuntu-kernel
[21:28] <garrettr> MonkeyDust: that sounds promising, thanks :D
[21:34] <mmercer> hey guys, following the eol release upgrade guide, and it seems i get to have a bit more fun;  back in the natty days, it was still multilibbed, oneiric changed to x64/i686 separation, so its warning me about not being able to find information;  googling says that for oneiric i need both of the mirror types (386 and 64 bit)
[21:34] <Gegsite> where can I "send" bug ?
[21:35] <mmercer> just want to make sure i dont screw this up, and as a non ubuntu person, trying to minimize casualty along the way;  should i manually update the sources.list prior to running do-release-upgrade from natty to oneiric, or let the script make the changes or ?
[21:37] <Gegsite> http://imgur.com/f1Qgx22
[21:38] <HMPenguin> Hey guys can someone help me with a dual monitor problem ?
[21:38] <Gegsite> this is "gnome" in 15.04 and the sound control panel from the top-right volume
[21:38] <k1l> !bug | Gegsite
[21:39] <HMPenguin> I'm on elementary OS but there's no IRC for elementary and it's built on Ubuntu anyway, but I can't get my monitors the right side of each other - this only happened after I installed the AMD drivers for my 7870
[21:44] <yangm> I was trying to "clean" ubuntu but now I have no audio card in pavucontrol, help?
[21:45] <bekks> So what did you "clean"? :)
[21:45] <Kully3xf> lol
[21:46] <yangm> well, things like "photo viewer" "amazon bullcrap" etc, since I want this box to be a xbmc client
[21:47] <Bray90820> Can someone tell me what the local user and local group are in this fstab entry
[21:47] <bekks> Apparently you uninstalled much more?
[21:47] <Bray90820> /SMB_HOST/SHARENAME /local/mountpoint cifs auto,user,rw,uid=LOCAL_USER,gid=LOCAL_GROUP,workgroup=WGNAME,iocharset=utf8,credentials=/home/LOCAL_USER/.secret/smb 0 0
[21:48] <Kully3xf> Bray you enter them where it says LOCAL_USER and LOCAL_GROUP
[21:48] <Bray90820> Kully3xf: I know that but I was asking what they mean
[21:48] <yangm> bekks, possibly. "uninstalling "something" will uninstall bla bla bla"
[21:48] <Kully3xf> oh
[21:48] <bekks> yangm: Most likely.
[21:49] <Kully3xf> like if your username is Bray90820 that would be your LOCAL_USER
[21:49] <Kully3xf> and if your group was best_group that would be the LOCAL_GROUP
[21:49] <k1l> yangm: so see in /var/log/apt into the logs
[21:49] <Bray90820> Kully3xf: If i don't have a group would I just remove that then
[21:49] <Kully3xf> no
[21:49] <yangm> k1l, can I use lspci trickery?
[21:49] <Kully3xf> you do have a group - everyone has a group
[21:50] <k1l> yangm: what?
[21:50] <Bray90820> Kully3xf: my local user I am assuming would be whatever username I login with but i have no idea what my group is
[21:50] <k1l> yangm: you said "i removed a lot of stuff and now my soundcard is gone" so lets see what you removed and what is essential for a working system.
[21:50] <Kully3xf> @Bray90820 type in "groups" in a terminal
[21:50] <jarlopez>  /join #grails
[21:50] <Kully3xf> it'll give you your groups
[21:50] <Sorinello> Hello. How can I see if an update mirror is down ? I am using the latest ubuntu version
[21:51] <yangm> ok
[21:51] <Kully3xf> @Bray90820 you'll have one group that's the same as your username
[21:52] <k1l> Sorinello: sudo apt update # will tell you
[21:52] <Sorinello> k1l, I get some 404 errors on my mirror
[21:52] <Bray90820> Kully3xf: local user and local group are both my username
[21:52] <Bray90820> ?
[21:52] <Kully3xf> could be
[21:52] <Kully3xf> local user is def. your username
[21:52] <Kully3xf> group is what ever it says when you say "groups" in a terminal
[21:53] <k1l> Sorinello: in system settings : updates and software you can change the mirror
[21:53] <Bray90820> I actually have more then one group
[21:53] <yangm> seems like it uninstalled the "ubuntu-desktop" package
[21:53] <Bray90820> Kully3xf: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9c0bbaa050adac2bcdcb
[21:53] <k1l> Sorinello: can you give an example of the 404 lines?
[21:54] <Sorinello> k1l, W: Failed to fetch http://ftp.roedu.net/mirrors/ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/dists/vivid-security/universe/source/Sources  404  Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[21:55] <k1l> Sorinello: ok, if its a desktop see my last message. change the mirror on the gui
[21:55] <Sorinello> k1l, I did, it solved my problem
[21:55] <Bray90820> Kully3xf: my problem is I don't know which one to use
[21:56] <Sorinello> k1l, I was just curious how a mirror like that can fail. AFAIK it's the biggest mirror of Romania
[21:56] <Bray90820> Kully3xf: I am thinking I would use aaron for my group as well
[21:57] <k1l> Sorinello: ask their admin :)
[21:57] <k1l> Sorinello: roedu.net is down here, too
[21:57] <Sorinello> k1l, ok, so it's not my connection. Thanks for  checking !
[22:05] <dragon21> how I repair my monitor after run "sensors-detect"
[22:05] <dragon21> ?
[22:07] <kokut> dragon21: u broke ur monitor with sensors-detect...?
[22:08] <dragon21> yes kokut :/ my monitor lost quality :(  (sorry my bad english)
[22:09] <dragon21> after I run that command
[22:09] <Kully3xf> @Bray09820 what are you trying to accomplish
[22:12] <dragon21> kokut I just want repair my monitor now... Lines my screen was flickering after run "sensors-detect"
[22:20] <kokut> Hello, is there a software for ubuntu to monitor my web server's latency through the day and report/display it in some cool graphs ?
[22:20] <kokut> dragon21: u sure its bc of the sensors-detect .. ?
[22:21] <kokut> dragon21: that's very unlikely
[22:21] <Telvana> Has anyone ever figured out the screen tearing in Kubuntu 15.04 w/ Nvidia drivers?
[22:23] <Telvana> Sorry, thought I was in the other channel.
[22:42] <ghosttss> html injection?
[22:42] <bekks> ghosttss: full question?
[22:54] <c_smith> hey, so what would the recommended way be to run a short script as root on each boot in Ubuntu 14.04?
[22:55] <bekks> !cron | c_smith
[22:55] <c_smith> bekks, was thinking of that, but wasn't sure if a init script would be better.
[22:56] <c_smith> bekks, basically have to run 'chmod a+r /dev/input/event*', in your opinion, would cron be sufficient?
[22:56] <bekks> c_smith: I'd rather create an appropriate udev rule instead.
[22:57] <c_smith> bekks, ah, yeah, that might just do it. lol
[23:00] <c_smith> bekks, before I forget, thanks for the tip there. :)
[23:15] <Mega1> does any know how someone put a web site on my site
[23:15] <Mega1> and how do i get rid of it
[23:16] <kilde> Can anyone help me figure out why my Eth0 no longer connects? I tether to my cell now but it still connects and disconnects no matter if Im on wifi or 4g. What is the problem? This started about 3 weeks ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated.   But i wanna break last e partotion for ubuntu
[23:28] <k3bab> ill get help somewhere else
[23:29] <c_smith> sallu, to make sure I'm reading that right, you want to delete the 3rd primary partition?
[23:29] <sallu> Smith linux mint released on april i guess . Cinnamon . It was good but i was having issues with brightness control and all that
[23:29] <lala> So many names.
[23:29] <c_smith> sallu, yeah, April's Mint installer SHOULD work just the same as a Ubuntu installer
[23:30] <c_smith> wasn't much in the words of drastic installer changes like there was when they introduced full disk encryption
[23:30] <sallu> Smith yes i want to delete 3rd bcoZ its of 481GB and i wanna make 4rth partition for ubuntu
[23:31] <sallu> Last time i made root home swap partition and all was good
[23:31] <friendlyshop1> !info
[23:31] <friendlyshop1> !info Plank
[23:32] <c_smith> sallu, you should be able to do so, you might have to do manual partitioning, but it's easy enough. :)
[23:33] <sallu> C_smith: so smith wait wait. I opened disk management from windows 7 and its showing me 4 primary partition .bcoz one of which is hidden system reserved
[23:34] <c_smith> sallu, if that's the case, I'd see if the automatic partitioning is viable, Ubuntu tends to handle that rather well
[23:35] <c_smith> it can easily set up the dual boot, just gotta be sure to select the right option, "install ubuntu alongside <windows version>"
[23:35] <sallu> Is it possible to delete 481gb of partition and make it 400 gb and left unused 80 gb unallocated. Do u think that i can use it for ubuntu
[23:35] <ghosttss>  /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER CLIKING1 iqmdsnulhoee
[23:36] <ghosttss> login
[23:36] <ghosttss> login
[23:36] <c_smith> sallu, the installer handles that nicely
[23:37] <sallu> Smith wow. Last time i remember. I have to choose option something else  . During Linux mint installation. And then i have to make logical partitions i guess
[23:38] <sallu> Gparted famous app also do that. Love that
[23:38] <c_smith> sallu, I'll admit it's been years since I've dual-booted, so some of my info on that area may be off
[23:39] <sallu> Smith should i be dependent on installer or manually do it just like the same way while installing linux mint
[23:40] <sallu> Home partiton should be big but not root. And i will make 8 gb for swap partition
[23:41] <sallu> What root partition do then?
[23:42] <EriC^^> !hier | sallu read about the dirs it contains here
[23:43] <sallu> Ok thanks ubottu
[23:44] <sallu> Eric
[23:44] <sallu> What is the best linux distro now a days
[23:45] <jdqx> ubuntu
[23:45] <almark> ubuntu has the best installer afaik
[23:47] <yangm> ended up installing kodibuntu, but now, when I close the lid the notebook sleeps
[23:48] <almark> sallu a sort of simple standard partition scheme is like /boot /swap /home and /
[23:48] <jdqx> he left
[23:49] <almark> duh
[23:49] <almark> it's too crowded here to have join/part messages on
[23:51] <guest-Juah1C> hay

[13:25] <saispo> hi
[13:26] <saispo> cjwatson: i have a little problem when i generate a cd with latester debiancd, germinate and all. This cd is build but with 2.6.24-16 kernel and i see he want 2.6.24-19 in hardy no ?
[13:31] <cjwatson> adjust the seeds to match
[13:31] <cjwatson> and ensure you're pulling from proposed if you want -19
[13:32] <saispo> ok, thanks, i will check that

[13:41] <saispo> and in run germinate i haven't got proposed, i relaunch a build
[13:51] <saispo> hmmm don't understand, i pull from proposed and i have 2.6.24-16 on the cd :/
[13:51] <saispo> my seeds is ok
[13:53] <saispo> germinate use *-proposed too
[13:54] <saispo> cjwatson: http://pastebin.com/m3f3340f6
[13:55] <saispo> any idea why it's pruned ?

[14:00] <saispo> it's a silly error... i go out to buy a new brain :p
[14:06] <saispo> cjwatson: why proposed is activate by default in installer now for hardy ?
[14:07] <cjwatson> because we're preparing 8.04.1, and need to build against -proposed to do so
[14:07] <saispo> ok
[14:08] <saispo> but when 8.04.1 is out, proposed will be removed ?
[14:08] <cjwatson> you can find the changesets that did so in the log and turn it back off, if you prefer
[14:08] <cjwatson> yes
[14:08] <cjwatson> until it comes time to prepare 8.04.2, anyway

[16:45] <CIA-38> grub-installer: cjwatson * r735 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.32ubuntu1
[16:47] <evand> xivulon: my fault for not running debcommit -r after the package was accepted into the archive (casper.hardy-proposed), but just as a precaution, please check to see that the archive matches bzr before committing in the future.
[16:48] <evand> I could've sworn I already made the change to revert based on Mithrandir's comment and added a note for the future...
[16:48] <evand> hrm
[16:48] <xivulon> my share of blame, didn't do as many pulls as I should have
[16:49] <xivulon> went out of sync in a few cases
[16:50] <xivulon> lupin should be in, if we can get casper and partman-auto-loop we can start testing
[16:51] <xivulon> note that I have pushed rev503 for wubi, that requires running make prerequisites
[16:52] <evand> yeah, make prerequisites just started working for me.  Last week I couldn't talk to SF's svn server.
[16:52] <xivulon> when I cleaned up the branch forgot the /tools directory so in 502 I still have grub4dos rev58 (should be 59)
[16:53] <evand> partman-auto-loop is in, it's just a matter of uploading a new ubiquity.
[16:53] <evand> ah
[16:53] <xivulon> great
[16:54] <evand> I'll take care of that either tonight or tomorrow.  Currently busy shoehorning the new localechooser into ubiquity.
[16:54] <xivulon> ok, lupin is the most critical, since the other 2 only affect installing from physical CD
[16:55] <xivulon> lupin should be in tomorrow ISO correct?
[16:55] <xivulon> on a separate topic, had a few reports on reliability of releases/cdimage.ubuntu.com
[16:55] <evand> yes
[16:56] <xivulon> with timeouts
[16:57] <xivulon> I noticed myself on friday night that downloading the cdimage matalink took quite a while, but did not dig further
[16:57] <xivulon> today seems good
[17:00] <evand> cdimage is for testing, I don't think you can reasonably expect high availability from it.  If releases is having issues, the group to talk to would be the IS team.  I'm not sure what channel they hang out in on freenode though.  Perhaps try -release.
[17:01] <cjwatson> #canonical-sysadmin
[17:01] <xivulon> do not think it is relevant anymore since users confirmed things are back to normal and I was away this w/e when it happened, if I observe the same behaviour will raise a flag
[17:02] <xivulon> thanks cjwatson for the irc
[17:02] <cjwatson> as evand says, cdimage is expected to be slow sometimes
[17:03] <xivulon> cjwatson, users should normally hit release first then cdimage as a fallback (so that we do not need a new build after release)
[17:09] <xivulon> ignore that, wrong inference on my side... Probably it was only a bad local mirror + slow cdimage, in fact the error reports are not necessarily due to an issue with the metalink
[17:11] <xivulon> I would observe the same error if the metalink from release.ubuntu.com was fine and the local mirror download was bad
[17:11] <xivulon> I was assuming a bad metalink because I experienced that, but on cdimage...
[17:18] <xivulon> evand 226622 is committed but not released, would it be possible to test the change so that we can have an ISO tomorrow?
[17:18] <xivulon> I did test the code, but not the new package
[17:19] <xivulon> the test should be to be able to boot from an ISO (not from physical CD), since without the patch that was not possible.
[17:20] <xivulon> that is using an initrd with the new lupin-casper
[17:20] <evand> lupin 0.20 is in the archive.
[17:21] <xivulon> hmm I was looking at 226622 and was committed and did not keep the log of today's conversation with pitti
[17:22] <xivulon> s/and was committed /and is "Fix committed"/
[17:22] <xivulon> great
