[00:02] <Coop34> Jordan_U: terminal says /dev/sdal doesnt exist
[00:02] <Jordan_U> Coop34: I highly recommend copying and pasting commands so that you don't accidentally make typos.
[00:03] <Coop34> Jordan_U: thats what i did
[00:04] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Then please also copy and paste the exact error message.
[00:05] <Shai-Tan> has anybody installed php7 successfully?
[00:05] <Coop34> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15087617/
[00:06] <Jordan_U> Coop34: What those commands are doing is 1: Making a mountpoint that we later use for mounting your /boot/ partition somewhere else. 2: Unmounting /boot/, as we don't want /boot/ to be a mountpoint any longer, we just want it to be a normal directory within your root fileystem. 3: Mounting your /boot/ partition to the temp mountpoint so that we can copy files from it to your /boot/ directory. 4: Actually
[00:06] <Jordan_U> doing the copying (so that your /boot/ directory will actually have your kernel images, rather than just being empty. 5: Re-installs grub, this time grub-install will make an installation that looks on your root fs for /boot/grub/ rather than using your separate /boot/ partition 6: Updates /boot/grub/grub.cfg to also look in your root fs for /boot/.
[00:06] <mediachicken> is it possible to check what keyboard drivers are currently connected/being used? I connected one of the new apple magic keyboards and it's not using the hid_apple drivers
[00:07] <Jordan_U> Coop34: I never used /dev/sdal in my comment, so you clearly didn't copy and paste the commands from my comment. Please try again using copy and paste.
[00:07] <mediachicken> the keyboard is working fine, but the fn keys aren't working and changing the fnmode on the hid_driver only modifies the built in macbook keyboard
[00:08] <Coop34>  sudo mkdir /tmp/temporary_boot_mountpoint && sudo umount /boot/ && sudo mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/temporary_boot_mountpoint && sudo cp -a /tmp/temporary_boot_mountpoint/* /boot/ && sudo grub-install /dev/sda && sudo update-grub
[00:10] <Coop34> Jordan_U: i just copied and pasted your exact comment
[00:10] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Ok. And did you try running it in a terminal yet?
[00:12] <Coop34> Jordan_U: yes and it says mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/tmp/temporary_boot_mountpoint’: File exists
[00:13] <zvive> is it possible to install a package to my main ubuntu from a live disk... my livedisk is 14.04 lubuntu, I want to install wicd-kde to kde-plasma desktop on ubuntu 15.10...
[00:14] <zvive> for some reason kde's network manager won't work w/ android tethered - it doesn't see the USB connection when I try to connect it, and our internet is having an outage.
[00:15] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Great. That is just the result of running the mkdir command multiple times. So now you should just run the commands that haven't already been run. Since you mentioned an error at the mount command before, that's probably where you should start:
[00:15] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Please pastebin the output of "mount".
[00:16] <cruisibesares> anyone have any words of wisdom for that upstart issue
[00:17] <Solarlux> Is it possible to ijnstall team viewer on ubuntu?
[00:17] <thepengwin> Solarlux: yes, teamviewer has an ubuntu installer
[00:17] <Bashing-om> zvive: Doubtful, but one can look. comapare ' apt-cache dependeds wicd-kde ; apt-cache rdepends wicd-kde ' on 14.04 and that of 15.10 .
[00:17] <Solarlux> I dont know how to install sh s ?
[00:18] <Jordan_U> Coop34: I am asking for the output of "mount" to confirm that /boot/ has already been unmounted before we continue with the rest of the commands.
[00:18] <OerHeks> zvive, i wonder if lubuntu packages contain wicd-kde... it is kubuntu specific. and i would not mix versions, wicd-kde is available for 15.10
[00:18] <Coop34> Jordan_U: ok it ran sorry about earlier i must have bumped somehting
[00:18] <zvive> yeah I'm wanting to just maybe get the deb files then install those offline by logging back into my kubuntu desktop.. but need to get them while I have internet
[00:20] <Bashing-om> !aptoncd | zvi Maybe consider:
[00:20] <Jordan_U> Coop34: The mistake you made was misreading the number '1' as the letter 'l' (lowercase 'L') and thus mistyping the command. That isn't a mistake that would happen if you copied and pasted.
[00:20] <Lunastyx> Ok guys. I've installed ubuntu on a USB key (as if it was an external hard drive) from a live USB. I've installed GRUB on that USB key too. However, it messed up my main harddrive. So much that I can't even boot an liveusb now. I always end up on a grub shell. What can I do?
[00:21] <mgolisch> you probably installed grub on your hardisk
[00:21] <Jordan_U> Coop34: And if you can't or don't want to copy and paste for some reason, that's not so much a problem but claiming that you did one thing when you in fact did another makes it hard to give you reliable support.
[00:21] <Lunastyx> mgolisch, I already had one there
[00:21] <Coop34> Jordan_U: got it, my bad i was copying a line at a time and messed up
[00:21] <Lunastyx> and it's obviously not working anymore
[00:23] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Got it, so you missed a sinbgle character and just typed it instead of re copying the whole thing. That's a pretty reasonable mistake to make, and you were in fact copying and pasting for the most part.
[00:23] <thepengwin> Lunastyx: can you get to a livecd boot? if so you should be able to just reinstall grub along these lines - http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd
[00:24] <Lunastyx> thepengwin, no CDROM reader on my laptop
[00:24] <Coop34> Jordan_U: Yeah that was my bad, i should have said
[00:24] <thepengwin> livecd/usb, whatever you can boot to.
[00:25] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Did all of the commands finish successfully?
[00:26] <axscode> hi guys, i have a quick Q on W: Failed to fetch http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-backports/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages  403  Forbidden
[00:26] <Coop34> Jordan_U: yep but...http://paste.ubuntu.com/15087748/
[00:26] <Jordan_U> Lunastyx: Can you be at the grub shell and on IRC at the same time?
[00:26] <axscode> anyone happen to know how to fix this...
[00:26] <Bashing-om> zvive: How about dounloading the .deb : http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/wicd-kde ?
[00:26] <Lunastyx> Jordan_U, unfortunately no, but I can do trips
[00:27] <tomreyn> Jordan_U: /root is a dm mapped device on Coop34's. have you checked he's not using FDE, where /boot must reside outside of if to boot it (unless a somewhat complex non-standard configuration is applied)
[00:27] <Lunastyx> Jordan_U, I've tried : linux(hd0,msdos1)/casper/vmlinuz then initrd(hd0,msdos1)/casper/initrd.lz then boot : it almost looked like it worked then I end up on a n initframs shell
[00:28] <tomreyn> Coop34: sorry for not responding earlier, i was called off
[00:29] <Jordan_U> Coop34: That was an English sentence, it wasn't inteded to be entered into the terminal directly. To edit your /etc/fstab run "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab" or if you're comfortable with using the terminal based nano text editor then run "sudo nano /etc/fstab" instead.
[00:30] <Jordan_U> tomreyn: "FDE"?
[00:30] <tomreyn> full disk encryption
[00:30] <tomreyn> i.e. dmsetup + LUKS
[00:31] <Coop34> tomreyn: no problem Jordan_U has been helping
[00:31] <tomreyn> dmcrypt + LUKs even
[00:31] <Jordan_U> tomreyn: Indeed that would be a problem, and no I didn't check that.
[00:31] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Are you using LUKS encryption or only LVM?
[00:31] <tomreyn> Coop34: so you use full disk encryption, do you need to enter a password or passphrase while ubuntu is booting up and before you get to the login screen?
[00:32] <skj> I'm stupid and need help, whenever I try to install through uefi I get to the grub menu but on boot of the live disk/install it hangs and freezes up, and it's the dell xps 15 9550
[00:32] <skj> going through legacy boot doesnt do anything either
[00:32] <tomreyn> Jordan_U: also md RAID might be an issue for booting depending on the metadata format version used
[00:33] <Jordan_U> tomreyn: Grub2 has supported all mdraid metadata formats for a while now.
[00:33] <Coop34> Jordan_U: Only LVM
[00:33] <tomreyn> Jordan_U: oh wanst aware of this, that's good to know
[00:33] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Great.
[00:34] <Coop34> tomreyn: i enter at the login screen
[00:34] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Do you know what I mean when I ask you to "comment out the line relating to /boot/ in your /etc/fstab"?
[00:34] <tomreyn> okay, go on then
[00:39] <Coop34> Jordan_U: no i dont sorry im pretty new to linux troubleshooting
[00:40] <kevin___-___> Plop
[00:40] <kevin___-___> i have an SSD and an HDD, will my comp' be faster if i put my /home on the SSD, or it will be the same as /home on HDD?
[00:41] <skj> can anyone help?
[00:41] <k1l_> kevin___-___: i would put / and /home on ssd. and use the hdd for data like musik, photos, isos,....
[00:41] <kevin___-___> k1l_: i thought about it.
[00:41] <Jordan_U> Coop34: That's OK. I'll walk you through it. First, lets get the exact contents of your /etc/fstab. Please run "pastebinit /etc/fstab". That command will create a pastebin with the contents of your /etc/fstab then spit out a link for you to post here for us to look at it.
[00:42] <Sachiru> k1l_, may I ask why putting /home on ssd would make the PC faster? Since /home usually does not contain binaries.
[00:44] <k1l_> Sachiru: read/write speed is way faster on the ssd. and that is what you do with stuff in /home. program confics and data.
[00:45] <Sachiru> Yes, but program configs are what, less than half an MB at most.
[00:45] <Coop34> Jordan_U: you still here?
[00:46] <Sachiru> And if you're reading/writing multimedia data on /home (for general use, like playing back movies/seeking to certain times on movies and such), there's minimal difference between 100 IOPS and 1000 IOPS.
[00:46] <Jordan_U> Sachiru: It doesn't matter much how large they are if it takes spinning up the drive and seeking to read them. Especially if there are a lot of such files.
[00:46] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Yes.
[00:47] <thepengwin> i tend to leave /home on an ssd, it makes it easier to access a faster part of userspace
[00:47] <Sachiru> I would argue that /var, /bin, /boot and /sbin on SSD make sense, but putting "Grandma's Oatmeal Cookie Recipies.odt" on SSD to make loading it faster? Not really perceptible.
[00:47] <k1l_> Sachiru: yeah, they are not big, but the speed is the issue. if it takes 5 times longer to access a 2kb file to while starting $program, that is what you really feel using the desktop
[00:48] <enyc> bug in ubuntu website -> 14.10 directory entry incorrectly labelled, in  http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/
[00:48] <k1l_> best would be to put everything on ssd :)
[00:48] <kevin___-___> if i put /home on my SSD, all of my personnal datas will be on my HDD. Like Documents/Pictures/Music/Videos
[00:48] <Coop34> Jordan_U: i did the pastebinit command you sent
[00:49] <thepengwin> it would be nice to magically symlink specific folders in your /home to HDD and then default the rest to ssd
[00:50] <thepengwin> in fact, i might do that for my server...
[00:50] <WinterGuardian> Hi, where can I find the content of my usb stick if I have no dev/sda ?
[00:50] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Ok. It should have output a URL. Please post that URL to the channel.
[00:50] <Coop34> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15087843/
[00:50] <WinterGuardian> Nvm
[00:51] <thepengwin> WinterGuardian: i normally look at the /dev/disk/by-uuid folder
[00:51] <Sachiru> Although I agree that the best thing to do is everything on SSD, in cases where space is scarce, one can forego /home on SSD since the impact of that is minimal compared to, say, /bin, /var or /boot on SSD
[00:53] <k1l_> Sachiru: imho you do underestimate the impact of the access times for those files and configs you use on daily basis
[00:54] <thepengwin> i feel like its a bit of a waste to give an ssd to / and not use even a little of it for your /home :P
[00:55] <WinterGuardian> it was just media
[00:55] <kevin___-___> i should put Docs Pics and Music on my SSD and my Videos on HDD
[00:57] <Sachiru> k1l_, I use ZFS. Files are loaded once and cached in ARC. Never need to hit disk again for them, as long as I have enough RAM.
[00:57] <Sachiru> Only thing that matters is streaming reads of any data larger than 128kb.
[00:57] <Sachiru> Which a HDD can easily do.
[00:57] <k1l_> kevin___-___: for a full desktop ubuntu needs ~10GB for /. the rest is userdata in /home. i would put as much "heavy stuff you dont need often anyway" like videos, music etc on the hdd then.
[00:58] <skj> you know what I'm just gonna install fedora instead
[00:58] <skj> at least that one worked
[00:59] <kevin___-___> k1l_: well, i think i will do that.
[01:00] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Great, please run the following, which will comment out the /boot/ line:
[01:00] <Jordan_U> Coop34: sudo sed -i 's/UUID=a78e3d3b/#UUID=a78e3d3b/' /etc/fstab
[01:03] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Once that command has been run you should be done, but before you reboot I'd like you to run a script called "boot info script" which will help us get information about your configuration so that we can be sure that everything looks correct now.
[01:04] <Coop34> Jordan_U: ok is that the command or english
[01:04] <Solarlux> hello all where can i see all my network adapters in Ubuntu?
[01:04] <Jordan_U> Coop34: That is english.
[01:05] <k1l_> Solarlux: "lshw"
[01:05] <Coop34> Jordan_U: send it when you're ready
[01:06] <tannerstirrat> 'evening. is anyone on?
[01:06] <tannerstirrat> specifically, someone who can help me understand networking?
[01:06] <Jordan_U> Coop34: sudo apt install boot-info-script && sudo bootinfoscript && pastebinit RESULTS.txt
[01:07] <Jordan_U> tannerstirrat: Just ask your actual question and if anyone can help they will.
[01:07] <tannerstirrat> kk, thank you
[01:07] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat what part of networking?
[01:07] <Solarlux> Where can i switch off one newtork adapter and switch on another?
[01:07] <erick_itgeek> thank you jordan_u
[01:07] <Coop34> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15087934/
[01:08] <erick_itgeek> solarlux terminal is the best place
[01:08] <tannerstirrat> i'm running a local development server, which ideally i'd like to have visible on my vm's outward-facing IP address. when I nmap localhost, I can see the port and it's listening, but when I nmap the external-facing IP, the port isn't there.
[01:08] <tannerstirrat> what would be causing this?
[01:08] <tannerstirrat> could*
[01:09] <tannerstirrat> it's not firewall, as far as i know, because I've got rules explicitly set up to allow connections on the port in question
[01:12] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat it could be bug related, someone else asked about this a few days ago in regards to ubuntu and the VM, they were able to ping from within the VM but it could not connect with anything else like the host for example
[01:13] <Jordan_U> Coop34: That didn't work terribly well due to bugs in that version of boot info script. Let's try a newer version. Please run "cd /tmp/ && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript/master/bootinfoscript && chmod +x bootinfoscript && sudo ./bootinfoscript && pastebinit RESULTS.txt" .
[01:14] <tannerstirrat> hmm... it's not that i'm unable to access the host
[01:15] <tannerstirrat> i've still got ssh access, for example
[01:15] <Coop34> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15087954/
[01:16] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat somewhere along the line of connection there is an error causing the port to close or switch on or off
[01:16] <tannerstirrat> it's almost like there's some disconnect between my ens192 interface and my localhost interface
[01:16] <tannerstirrat> huh... but i've also been able to get a webpack server listening on the external IP by explicitly designating the external IP
[01:16] <tannerstirrat> would that still be related?
[01:17] <Jordan_U> Coop34: It looks like you didn't run the sed command I gave you earlier, is that correct?
[01:18] <erick_itgeek> what i mean is, if your VM is using the port at the same time your host is, that can cause the port to switch between each other, they connect to each other yes, but they cant connect separately at the same time.
[01:18] <web2003> GCC isn't linking against fs/ext4.h.  Not developing a module, just a normal program that tries to access the filesystem.
[01:18] <tannerstirrat> oh! sorry. this is a company VM, so this isn't a conflict with my personal computer. the VM is on the company network, and set up with a static IP
[01:18] <Coop34> Jordan_U: it looks like i missed that one
[01:19] <Jordan_U> Coop34: sudo sed -i 's/UUID=a78e3d3b/#UUID=a78e3d3b/' /etc/fstab
[01:19] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat oh ok that is starting to make more sense, the old xy conflict
[01:20] <tannerstirrat> xy conflict?
[01:20] <Coop34> Jordan_U: i tried again http://paste.ubuntu.com/15087976/
[01:20] <erick_itgeek> !xy | tannerstirrat
[01:20] <tannerstirrat> haha i like that
[01:20] <SchrodingersScat> erick_itgeek: thanks for that one
[01:20] <tannerstirrat> it's mostly a question of still being ignorant enough about networking to not know what's relevant
[01:21] <Jordan_U> web2003: "Accessing an ext4 filesystem" without mounting it with the linux kernel involves *much* more than "linking against fs/ext4.h". What is your end goal? Why not just mount the fileysystem and access the files that way (which doesn't require linking to any special libraries)?
[01:21] <maynix> fnlgnlgn
[01:22] <Jordan_U> Coop34: To get the new output you need to "pastebinit RESULTS1.txt".
[01:23] <erick_itgeek> its ok, i fall into this same problem, i cannot see what you see and therefore it is harder to know what is happening. so getting back to it. The VM is running on ubuntu correct?
[01:24] <Coop34> Jordan_U: will just that line do or do i need all of it?
[01:24] <tannerstirrat> yes
[01:24] <web2003> Trying to maintain inode integrity, don't know if any program currently handles that.
[01:25] <Jordan_U> Coop34: Just that line.
[01:25] <tannerstirrat> i've got ubuntu server 15.10 running
[01:25] <Jordan_U> web2003: What do you mean by "maintain inode integrity"?
[01:25] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat what is the output of nmap to the external IP? is it blank or is there an error etc
[01:26] <tannerstirrat> no, there's ports on both. hold up...
[01:26] <web2003> The filesystem specification allows for links to links of inodes.  A malicious process might potentially alter a small file's last inodes to set up a hidden filesystem.
[01:27] <Coop34> Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15088013/
[01:27] <tannerstirrat> https://gist.github.com/tstirrat15/3281107243ab6a1ddbc2
[01:27] <tannerstirrat> waiiiiit....
[01:27] <tannerstirrat> goddamn, it might have been firewall rules
[01:27] <tannerstirrat> hold up
[01:28] <Jordan_U> Coop34: That looks great. You should be ready to reboot, and everything *should* go fine, but you should have a LiveCD/USB on hand in case it doesn't.
[01:28] <web2003> Can a process alter the triple-indirect inode of a small file but maintain the "size"?
[01:28] <erick_itgeek> reviewing the link, also language is not appropriate just fyi, dont want you to get banned etc
[01:28] <web2003> triple-indirect link in the file's inode*
[01:28] <tannerstirrat> ah, kk. thank you for the heads-up
[01:29] <Jordan_U> web2003: Only processes running as root can modify the block device directly.
[01:29] <Coop34> Jordan_U: thank you so much for the help, this was really getting on my nerves
[01:29] <Jordan_U> Coop34: You're welcome.
[01:29] <Coop34> Jordan_U: one more question is there anyway to get firefox to run the latest flash player?
[01:29] <tannerstirrat> earlier, 443 wasn't showing externally. I made a ufw rule for https just for fun, and it seems to have resolved that issue. now I'm getting a 400, but that's probably an issue with the server i'm running
[01:29] <web2003> Jordan_U: I would imagine that anyone who would go to the trouble to make something like this could easily get root
[01:30] <tannerstirrat> i'll keep poking at it
[01:30] <tannerstirrat> thank you, erick_itgeek
[01:31] <Jordan_U> web2003: So are you trying to exploit a percieved vulnerability or prevent it?
[01:31] <web2003> Prevent it.
[01:31] <Jordan_U> web2003: How exactly do you plan to prevent root from doing whatever they want?
[01:32] <web2003> Not clear on what you mean.
[01:33] <squinty> Coop34,  might want to look into installing pepperflash and freshplayer for flash in firefox
[01:33] <Jordan_U> web2003: What would your program do to prevent this vulnerability from being exploited?
[01:34] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat nmap by default wont scan all ports, if you want to see if the ports are open or close you can run a command to check, in the terminal run the following without quotes " nmap -sT -Su -p <IP_ADDRESS> "
[01:34] <web2003> Iterate over every inode, flattening indirect links and checking the integrity of the inode's listed size
[01:35] <Jordan_U> web2003: Matthew Gerret's "secure level" patches would prevent this because (when securelevel is 1 or greater) it prevents writing to mounted block devices by userland processes.
[01:35] <Jordan_U> web2003: Does fsck not do this already?
[01:36] <Coop34> Squinty: ive done pepperflash and freshplayer im guessing its just not gonna happen
[01:36] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat you can remove the -sU if you dont want to scan UDP ports, it will take a while but you will see all ports
[01:39] <web2003> Free blocks are stored in the cylinder group block maps. fsck checks that all the blocks marked as free are not claimed by any files. When all the blocks have been accounted for, fsck checks to see if the number of free blocks plus the number of blocks claimed by the inodes equal the total number of blocks in the file system. If anything is wrong with the block allocation maps, fsck rebuilds them, leaving out blocks already allocated.
[01:40] <tannerstirrat> erick_itgeek: this is weird. I just verified that i can telnet to the port that I just opened up (https 443), but I can't telnet to port 3000, which is theoretically open according to my iptables -L output
[01:41] <web2003> Each inode contains a count of the number of data blocks that it references. The number of actual data blocks is the sum of the allocated data blocks and the indirect blocks. fsck computes the number of data blocks and compares that block count against the number of blocks the inode claims. If an inode contains an incorrect count, fsck prompts you to fix it.
[01:41] <web2003> I guess it does.
[01:44] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat check if it is blocked, nmap -v -p 3000 <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:46] <io> harry potter
[01:48] <erick_itgeek> tannerstirrat of instead of <IP_ADDRESS> you can use the VM IP instead, nmap wont show it, nmap shows only the popular ports, are you having problems connecting?
[01:52] <WinterGuardian> Why are fonts in ubuntu so much ... raw ? No antialiasing ?
[01:53] <ShutemDown> fonts should look the same
[01:53] <ShutemDown> as on windows or mac
[01:54] <WinterGuardian> Not really for me
[01:54] <thepengwin> its dependant on the desktop environment and antialiasing settings aswell
[01:54] <WinterGuardian> I will look for this
[01:54] <WinterGuardian> It depends of the program
[01:54] <thepengwin> if on unity/gnome you can change the settings using gnome-tweak-tool unity-tweak-tool or ubunt-tweak
[01:54] <WinterGuardian> I'm using kde
[01:55] <WinterGuardian> Web pages are okay, hexchat is okay, intelliJ is really bad, web tabs are really bad, windows header bad too
[01:55] <ShutemDown> I'm guessing it's the theme you are using.
[01:55] <ShutemDown> pretty sure actually
[01:55] <thepengwin> https://www.maketecheasier.com/get-great-looking-fonts-in-kde/
[01:56] <thepengwin> oh, java based apps
[01:56] <ShutemDown> he said window headers too
[01:57] <WinterGuardian> It's mostly windows headrs
[01:57] <thepengwin> yeah, just  java based applications dont configure fonts properly, im not sure how to fix it but it has something to do with the java widget library it uses
[01:57] <WinterGuardian> headers *
[01:57] <thepengwin> as for window headers, there should be settings to make them look better in kde's control panel
[01:59] <WinterGuardian> Oh yes thanks a lot
[01:59] <WinterGuardian> Antialiasing was disabled
[01:59] <thepengwin> how odd

[02:07] <Afteraffekt> Hey all. I'm trying to see if Ubuntu can save a drive that died while formating. Fdisk -l and gparted neither see the drive what more can I do?
[02:07] <ubuntu_> hello, i have 14.04 installed on my lenovo yoga 13 laptop and everything was working perfectly!  all of a sudden it won't boot.  can anyone help?  I am logged in using a usb stick, same computer.
[02:10] <naxo> somebody can explain me how to do a chat server here with LAN?
[02:15] <ubuntu_> can anyone help with an installation that suddenly will not boot?
[02:17] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_: What happens when you try to boot?
[02:18] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U, thank you.  i get the screen with the dots, then it goes to a black screen
[02:18] <naxo> /exit
[02:18] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U, this was a perfectly fine install until suddenly not booting.  i am on the same computer, using ubuntu on a stick, so i can access the HD
[02:22] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_: Are you using any proprietary graphics drivers? Can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log from your installed system?
[02:23] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U, no i am not using any such things.  yes i will pastebin.  only two conditions that i can think of changed before this reboot problem.  1. I installed skype.  2. i let the battery drain completely by accident.  hang on for pastebin
[02:29] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U, still working on paste
[02:30] <ubuntu-mate> hey hey peeps, anyone know how i can make a persistent usb of the alpha 2 iso? i think i just add persisent --- at the end when i boot and then i make a new user on the live cd and it should auto create a casper-rw or do i need to make that before i guess

[02:33] <swengin> Hi I mounted a disk using this udo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt && sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev && sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc && sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys  && sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts && sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/etc/resolv.conf
[02:34] <swengin> so I can chroot it
[02:34] <swengin> but now I want to unmount the disk
[02:34] <swengin> no matter what I try the device is always busy
[02:34] <swengin> I tried fuser -k and umount -f
[02:35] <swengin> fuser -k /mnt and umount -f /mnt
[02:42] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U, any ideas?
[02:42] <Bashing-om> swengin: Don't know, but the way you set up networking is depreciated .. ...Taking a poke at it -  what results ' sudo umount /mnt/run ' ?
[02:44] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_: Please pastebin your installation's /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf .
[02:46] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/96A1d0Jp
[02:48] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_: Have you modified this file at all?
[02:48] <malwarez> =]
[02:49] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U, yes, i added the lines:  	Option "FingerLow" "40"
[02:49] <ubuntu_>         Option "FingerHigh"40"
[02:49] <ubuntu_>  toward the beginning
[02:50] <hotvilla> what?
[02:53] <Jordan_U> ubuntu_: I don't know how those lines should look but your Xorg.0.log is complaining about them. Try reverting them back to their original state and see if X starts then.
[02:54] <ubuntu_> Jordan_U, ok.  i will work on that and come back.  thanks for having a peek.  fingers crossed.

[03:11] <absk007> how do i clear Ubuntu cache. I only have 12 MB out of 16 GB left in my ubuntu partition and I don't have any useless software. And I've already cleared apt cache.
[03:11] <absk007> What else do I need to clean?
[03:15] <squinty> absk007,  install bleachbit   use with caution
[03:15] <squinty> qmx5599
[03:15] <absk007> squinty, install bleachbit in 12 MB space left? :/ OK. I'll find a way. Thanks
[03:17] <Bashing-om> absk007: Old kernels ? ' dpkg -l | grep linux- ' .. only need 2 kernels .
[03:18] <squinty> 3,751 kB of additional disk space will be used. after installing bleachbit
[03:24] <absk007> squinty, using bleachbit, it shows ' Delete 4.1kB /usr/share/help/my/ubuntu-help/*.page '
[03:25] <absk007> squinty, ain't they required?
[03:26] <absk007> squinty, why does it show all kinds of help files for deletion?
[03:27] <squinty> absk007, no idea   never noticed or used those files before to be honest
[03:27] <absk007> squinty, well, i ran bleachbit using sudo :P
[03:28] <absk007> squinty, prolly, i should run normally
[03:28] <squinty> absk007,  you can run both   system files (logs etc) need admin
[03:28] <absk007> squinty, though cleaning up all those help files would free atleast 300mb
[03:29] <squinty> absk007,  when running in normal user mode you probably will see a bunch of files that it doesn't have permissions to delete therefore root bleachbit is required
[03:30] <WhitePelican> #firefox
[03:30] <absk007> squinty, ah! ok. So i headed in right direction :)
[03:30] <absk007> WhitePelican, #Chrome
[03:30] <squinty> yep
[03:30] <WhitePelican> can't use chrome
[03:31] <absk007> WhitePelican, #chromium :P
[03:32] <absk007> squinty, hey! wrong direction
[03:33] <squinty> absk007, ??
[03:33] <absk007> squinty, when i ran it in normal mode, it shows different options
[03:33] <squinty> yep
[03:33] <absk007> squinty, now it shows my browsers too
[03:34] <squinty> yep  and there caches are usually full to the brim of un-needed crap
[03:34] <squinty> just ran mine after a couple of weeks of use and got nearly 2 gig back :P
[03:34] <absk007> squinty, well, i <3 love my browser cache. I use devdocs :)
[03:34] <Bray90820> Any mac people in here?
[03:35] <squinty> Bray90820,  better to just state your problem rather than "any....."
[03:35] <absk007> Mac = $$$, Ubuntu = Free! ($$$ != Free) :P
[03:36]  * squinty is off to watch some telly with "she who must be obeyed"

[03:50] <hfp> Hi, how can I scp a file from a host to another when I need to be root to access said file but can't ssh in as root? The two machines can't scp directly to one another because they dont have each other's keys and ssh with password is disabled.
[03:54] <somsip> hfp: long way - copy it locally, change perms, scp it, change perms back
[03:55] <jonny5000> Jordan_U, THANK YOU!!
[03:55] <Jordan_U> hfp: That is not a problem that can be solved with scp alone.
[03:56] <jonny5000> Jordan_U, this is the guy who messed up his X synaptics.conf.  fixed it and we are back in business
[03:56] <Jordan_U> jonny5000: You're welcome, glad you're able to start X normally again :)
[03:56] <jonny5000> Jordan_U, how did you know it was me thanking you before i identified myself?

[04:11] <Behi> Hi all, if Chrome freezes your system entirely from time to time, could you please do me a favor and upvote this bug report: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=586926
[04:12] <boot1> sir Bashing-om may i ask your help
[04:12] <Behi> I have spent a week or so on this bug report. I have also reported it to freedesktop.org: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94109
[04:12] <boot1> i tried edit the /etc/default/grub GRUB_TIMEOUT=0 but still it pause
[04:13] <Bashing-om> boot1: Sire . but the instructions to change the boot time delay is in the guide .
[04:14] <absk007> Behi, chromium does freezes sometimes for me but doesn't freeze my whole system
[04:15] <Behi> absk007 if you could vote for this bug report on Google's bug tracker it will be highly appreciated
[04:15] <Behi> Google usually tends to ignore bug reports unless lots of people upvote (star) them
[04:16] <absk007> Behi, i thought Google doesn't listen at all. Moreover, isn't Chromium community driven?
[04:17] <Bashing-om> boot1: edit as " #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 ; GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false ; GRUB_TIMEOUT=1 " . See if tht works for you . not recommended to set the GRUB_TIMEOUT to zero .
[04:18] <Behi> absk007 Actually it is the Chromium bug tracker. But I think most of the people working on the project are Google employees. I am afraid I am a Java developer so I can't help with fixing the bug. But I have done everything from reporting it to Intel to freedesktop to Chromium's bug tracker hoping they are gonna fix it sooner rather than later
[04:19] <rypervenche> Behi: I had issues with that very recently when watching HTML5 videos on Youtube, but it was with Firefox. The solution for me was to compile it without gstreamer support. Maybe something kind of related?
[04:19] <absk007> Behi, hmmm... OK. cool. done :)
[04:20] <Behi> rypervenche could be. But for some reason Firefox works fine for me. My system uses an Intel iGPU.
[04:20] <Behi> absk007 Thanks a lot! >:D<
[04:21] <Behi> rypervenche would you be kind enough to upvote it too?
[04:22] <Behi> I just noticed that Google has a custom implementation of OpenGL ES 2.0 and that could be the culprit: https://code.google.com/p/gles2-bc/
[04:22] <rypervenche> Behi: Nope. This could very easyily be an issue on your machine that you just need to troubleshoot further. You should attach your kernel version as well.
[04:22] <Behi> As in the error logs I see errors like this: [6427:6427:0216/005403:ERROR:gles2_cmd_decoder.cc(4577)] [GroupMarkerNotSet(crbug.com/242999)!:C8E010ACA0030000]cmd: SetBucketSize
[04:22] <rypervenche> Behi: And what you are doing when the crash occurs.
[04:23] <boot1> sir Bashing-om still it pause
[04:23] <Behi> I have reported everything to Intel, FreeDesktop, as well as Chrome's bug tracker
[04:24] <Behi> And looks like I am not the only person affected by this issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2113179 and http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/91912/chrome-freezes-ubuntu-13-04
[04:24] <Behi> See this for example: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94109
[04:25] <Behi> I have added this link to Chromium's bug report too
[04:25] <Bashing-om> boot1: Did you save the file, and then run terminal command 'sudo update-grub ' to propgate the change ?
[04:26] <swengin> Hi I want to install grub on a disk from live cd the whole disk is formatted as ext4 so it's complaining because I don't have enough space at the beginning of the disk I want to shrink the partition so I get the required space to install grub how can I knowing that I only have shell access
[04:26] <boot1> Bashing-om yes sir i save the file and run update-grub
[04:26] <rypervenche> Behi: You should also look into seeing if the magic sysrq key (REISUB) will work for you when it freezes, so you don't have to hard reboot.
[04:27] <boot1> Bashing-om; yes sir i save the file and run update-grub still it pause 10 seconds
[04:28] <Jordan_U> boot1: Please pastebin your /boot/grub/grub.cfg .
[04:28] <Bashing-om> boot1: Right off hand, I do not know other, the above should give ya a menu in dual/multi-boot environment for 1 second .
[04:28] <Jordan_U> swengin: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l".
[04:28] <Behi> rypervenche let me see if I can unfreeze the system using that. brb
[04:29] <rypervenche> Behi: It's not for unfreezing it, it's for properly shutting down.
[04:30] <swengin> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/1cuB05Lq
[04:32] <cfoch> hello, folks. I want to add Ubuntu to my grub in ArchLinux
[04:32] <Behi> rypervenche oh, I see. Yes, that's what just happened :)
[04:32] <cfoch> this configuration file 40_custom http://fpaste.org/323302/45559653/ is not working properly
[04:32] <cfoch> what did I do wrong?
[04:33] <Jordan_U> swengin: That looks fine. What grub-install command are you running? Please pastebin its complete output.
[04:34] <rypervenche> Behi: By the way, did you try this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2113179&page=5&p=12965219#post12965219
[04:34] <swengin> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/FZSYBVnS
[04:34] <cfoch> help me with my grub configuration please
[04:35] <rypervenche> cfoch: Why do you want to manually add your configuration? GRUB2 should be able to detect it when you run update-grub.
[04:35] <Jordan_U> cfoch: Please be patient, you haven't even waited 5 minutes for anyone to respond.
[04:35] <cfoch> rypervenche: because I am using ArchLinux
[04:36] <cfoch> but I suppose that this configuration goes according Ubuntu, so I ask here
[04:36] <rypervenche> cfoch: Arch uses GRUB2 these days too.
[04:36] <cfoch> specififly this part of "linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.2.0-27-generic" andinitrd /boot/initrd.img-4.2.0-27-generic"
[04:36] <Jordan_U> cfoch: Three things 1: You forgot a root= kernel parameter 2: You made an entry that will need to be updated manually whenever you get a kernel upgrade 3: re-running "grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grubgrub.cfg" will get you an entry that will work automatically.
[04:37] <cfoch> rypervenche: yes, I know, why do you say that?
[04:37] <Jordan_U> cfoch: And 4: Custom entries are better added to /boot/grub/custom.cfg (creating the file if it doesn't already exist) than /etc/grub.d/40_custom .
[04:37] <boot1> Bashing-om; Jordan_U; grub.cfg http://pastebin.com/ydjtmi8J
[04:38] <Jordan_U> boot1: That is not your /boot/grub/grub.cfg, that is your /etc/default/grub.
[04:39] <cfoch> Jordan_U: should it be just "linux /boot/vmlinuz" ?
[04:40] <Jordan_U> cfoch: No, I didn't say anything like that. If you didn't understand any part of my answer, please say which part and ask for specific clarification.
[04:40] <Behi> rypervenche no, I didn't. I used a couple of flags but not all of them. Let me try them now. Thanks. :)
[04:40] <rypervenche> cfoch: Is there any reason you are wanting to write this out manually each time or is it just because you are used to doing it this way?
[04:40] <cfoch> rypervenche: no, If it could be updated automatically I would be happy man :)
[04:40] <swengin> Jordan_U: any idea
[04:41] <rypervenche> cfoch: Do you have any special things with your installation? LVM? LUKS?
[04:41] <Jordan_U> swengin: Grub's boot sector should be installed to the MBR, /dev/sdb, not to a partition boot record like /dev/sdb1.
[04:42] <swengin> hmm ok thank you
[04:43] <rypervenche> cfoch: Oh, I just realized I misread your problem. You want to add Ubuntu to your Arch's GRUB menu.
[04:43] <cfoch> yes
[04:43] <Bashing-om> boot1: Looks fair . but do you really want "
[04:43] <Bashing-om> GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480" such a low resolution ?
[04:44] <rypervenche> cfoch: Yeah, ok. Listen to what Jordan_U said then.
[04:44] <Jordan_U> cfoch: It can be updated automatically. The standard solution is to ensure that you have os-prober installed and re-run grub-mkconfig. The non standard (and IMHO superior) solution is to add a /boot/grub/custom.cfg entry that uses configfile to load Ubuntu's grub.cfg from Arch's.
[04:44] <boot1> Bashing-om; sir sorry for the delay but copy paste from other computer not directly connected to net
[04:45] <cfoch> sorry, I closed my #ubuntu tab, did I lose any message?
[04:45] <Jordan_U> cfoch: It can be updated automatically. The standard solution is to ensure that you have os-prober installed and re-run grub-mkconfig. The non standard (and IMHO superior) solution is to add a /boot/grub/custom.cfg entry that uses configfile to load Ubuntu's grub.cfg from Arch's.
[04:46] <Bashing-om> boot1: Any errors reported from ' sudo update-grub ' ?
[04:46] <boot1> Bashing-om; Jordan_U; http://pastebin.com/XisGCed4
[04:47] <boot1> Bashing-om sir no errors display
[04:49] <Jordan_U> boot1: That grub.cfg looks like the result of /etc/default/grub containing GRUB_TIMEOUT=0, not GRUB_TIMEOUT=1.
[04:49] <Total_Eclipse> I just did a command line ubuntu install but when I try to boot all I get is a black screen with a flashing dash. Can someone help me?
[04:50] <Behi> rypervenche Now, it doesn't freeze anymore, but it also doesn't render anything :) http://imgur.com/ZkPHQ85
[04:51] <Behi> I tried YouTube, Google.com, DuckDuckGo, etc. all render a white page
[04:51] <swengin> Jordan_U: thanks so much that worked
[04:51] <Jordan_U> swengin: You're welcome.
[04:52] <cfoch> Jordan_U: how do I add a menuentry containing the /boot/grub/custom.cfg of the Ubuntu partition? (did I understood properly?)
[04:52] <Jordan_U> Total_Eclipse: Please run boot info script: https://github.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript and pastebin the RESULTS.txt that it produces.
[04:53] <Bashing-om> cfoch: Good instructions : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaintenanceFreeCustomGrub2Screen for adding menu entries manually .
[04:54] <boot1> .. Bashing-om; Jordan_U; thank you very very much sir for your great help; my mistake; was not able to update again after i edit
[04:54] <Total_Eclipse> Its not loading any sort of terminal
[04:54] <boot1> Bashing-om; Jordan_U; now it only pauses 1 second;
[04:55] <Jordan_U> cfoch: Create a /boot/grub/custom.cfg in your Archlinux partition containing the following: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15088799/ note that you will need to replace UUID_OF_UBUNTU_PARTITION with the actual UUID.
[04:55] <Bashing-om> boot1: Good now ? want to change that grub resolutiuon ? // Great  from that last .
[04:56] <boot1> Bashing-om; wanted if it is not difficult for a newbie like in ubuntu configuration
[04:59] <boot1> Jordan_U; i remove that 1 second display; so that it will straight?
[05:01] <Jordan_U> boot1: Ubuntu's patches on top of upstream grub make it difficult to configure no timeout, and it is indeed good to be able to access the grub menu if you need to. Why do you insist on 0 timeout?
[05:01] <Bashing-om> boot1: Not at all diffucult  to set a grub resolution . But it has to be acceptable . see the advisory in the grub config file.
[05:05] <Jordan_U> Total_Eclipse: Please boot from a LiveCD/USB and run boot info script, then pastebin the RESULTS.txt that it produces.
[05:07] <boot1> Jordan_U; is it possible to hide the gnu grub display of the menu during that 1 second pause?
[05:08] <Bashing-om> boot1: Do you want to change that grub resolution ? another reason why you do not set TIME_OUT to zero  - .
[05:10] <Jordan_U> boot1: Yes. GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden in /etc/default/grub.

[05:59] <Dro> is it impossible to add space to /dev/sda3 in this case http://i.imgur.com/nrdw1ee.png ?
[06:04] <Jordan_U> Dro: Yes, just move sda4 to the end of the drive first.
[06:12] <holler> hello, on ubuntu 14.04, when I get to login screen I am seeing "Guest Session" and "SunShineDay", however when I mount in recovery mode and do e.g. less /etc/passwd, I am not seeing user "SunShineDay", but I do see the original username I created on the laptop "eyesuck", where is SunShineDay coming from?
[06:13] <holler> I just got my laptop back from my sister who had it forever
[06:13] <holler> basically im wondering if she changed my "eyesuck" to "SunShineDay" or if that is a guest account? im basically locked out of my laptop
[06:14] <Ashtasu> I'm drawing a blank if you can change the pass without accessing, doubti t though.
[06:14] <Ashtasu> doubt it*
[06:16] <holler> Ashtasu: I am able to log into recovery mode -> root and then mount the filesystem and issues commands
[06:17] <Dro> Jordan_U, how can i move it please?
[06:17] <holler> like I think i actually changed the password but now im getting an issue where it logs in and then out immediately
[06:17] <holler> not sure wtf is going on

[06:38] <someone235> Hi, How can I add this via PPA? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnugo
[06:38] <_banana> MongoDB required upstart install, which removed systemd. Proper shutdown is no longer possible (fails on stopping encrypted disk). Any fixes?
[06:40] <baizon> someone235: this is no ppa, thats the repo for ubuntu
[06:40] <xangua> someone235: you don't
[06:40] <someone235> baizon, So I need to manually download the .deb?
[06:41] <baizon> someone235: well that would be one solution
[06:41] <hateball> someone235: You just install it using the software centre
[06:41] <hateball> or sudo apt-get install gnugo
[06:41] <someone235> hateball, this is what I thought, but it didn't work
[06:42] <someone235> hateball, but apparently it's already installed, so this is answering the question :)
[06:45] <Helladen> Anyone know how to get ALSA working with Sound Blaster Z?
[06:46] <Helladen> I read that the kernel is fine, it is just something to do with the way ALSA is configured.
[06:54] <lotuspsychje> Helladen: wich ubuntu version are you on?
[06:54] <Helladen> I have tried 15.10 and 16.04.
[06:54] <Helladen> But it doesn't work on ether. I also have used Fedora and many different flavours.
[06:54] <lotuspsychje> Helladen: logs show anything usefull?
[06:54] <lotuspsychje> Helladen: how about latest alsa download manually?
[06:55] <Helladen> Well running 16.04 - ALSA should of been latest.
[06:55] <lotuspsychje> ah ok
[06:55] <Helladen> Maybe not though
[06:57] <Helladen> To update ALSA
[06:57] <lotuspsychje> Helladen: also restart doesnt fix it neither?
[06:57] <lotuspsychje> alsa
[06:57] <Helladen> I don't know how to compile in Linux.
[06:57] <linocisco> hi all
[06:57] <Helladen> To make my own packages.
[06:58] <gshmu> [VPN l2tp Pre-shared Key]I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 x64, try xl2tpd openswan and strongswan etc, but which the best way to using l2tp Pre-shared Key VPN?
[06:58] <lotuspsychje> !compile | Helladen
[06:58] <lotuspsychje> Helladen: maybe file a new bug in #ubuntu+1 for 16.04 devs might get attention on it?
[06:58] <linocisco> i am downloading something scribus using software center. and then I downloaded pinta as second one. Can I pause download of scribus and start downloading pinta which i need to use first?
[06:59] <linocisco> but pause and resume is not supported in software center
[06:59] <Helladen> There's a bug
[06:59] <Helladen> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147443
[06:59] <lotuspsychje> Helladen: did you update it, to 'im affected' also?
[07:01] <Helladen> https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109191
[07:01] <Helladen> There's a bug on the Kernel.
[07:01] <Helladen> I don't know if it is Kernel or Ubuntu.
[07:01] <lotuspsychje> Helladen: i would also file a new one for 16.04 as its almost final
[07:02] <Helladen> I think they fixed it in the Kernel.
[07:02] <Helladen> Ubuntu just hasn't patched it in right.
[07:02] <lotuspsychje> !mainline | Helladen maybe test around here?
[07:03] <Helladen> Thanks.
[07:03] <Helladen> I didn't realize they modified the Kernel.
[07:04] <lotuspsychje> Helladen: well you can test higher versions like this
[07:07] <diamond_sword> hello
[07:07] <diamond_sword> I'm having this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1476044
[07:07] <diamond_sword> and I couldn't find a fix about it.
[07:07] <diamond_sword> what is it about?
[07:07] <_banana> Hello again. Does replacing systemd with upstart in 15.10 will in fact affect the ability to shutdown properly? Thank you.
[07:10] <Jordan_U> _banana: Yes, there is a long known yet unfixed bug in upstart that can lead to the root fs not being unmounted properly on shutdown and upstart is essentially no longer maintained outside 12.04 and 14.04. Why do you want to use upstart in 15.10?
[07:11] <diamond_sword> anyone knows about this bug? please
[07:14] <Jordan_U> diamond_sword: Are you trying to install this package via apt-get?
[07:19] <holler> hello, how can i recover an ecryptfs passphrase and log into my computer? i accidently changed the main users password using passwd and now i get booted out right when i log in
[07:19] <holler> i didnt know it was encrypted or that was a bad idea
[07:19] <ck_mfc> Heyho!! Does anyone of you is able to save his PGP Passphrase? I am using Enigmal + Thunderbird to encrypt and decrypt my mails. But everytime I have to paste my pgp passphrase :(((
[07:20] <diamond_sword> Jordan_U, I installed it now via Synaptic
[07:20] <Jordan_U> holler: Boot into single user mode and change the password back.
[07:20] <Helladen> How come FFmeg library has to be removed installing Restricted Extras?
[07:21] <Helladen> Is this package not necessary anymore?
[07:21] <holler> Jordan_U: i dont know what the old password was
[07:21] <holler> my ex gf changed it
[07:21] <Jordan_U> diamond_sword: Try installing via apt-get instead.
[07:22] <Jordan_U> holler: Then unless you can get the password from her, your data is gone.
[07:22] <diamond_sword> I'm using ubuntu with unity. I tried to install xfce desktop but it conflicts with unity and doesn't work well. this is ubuntu version 14.04 lts. I want to install xubuntu look as my desktop environment and easily I can change it to unity or to xfce at login page.
[07:22] <diamond_sword> but I want them completely seperate from each other.
[07:22] <holler> Jordan_U: fuckkk really?
[07:22] <holler> we broke up she'll never give that to me
[07:22] <holler> fcking a
[07:22] <diamond_sword> last try it was half xfce and half unity when I login as unity.
[07:22] <Jordan_U> holler: Please watch your language.
[07:22] <holler> sorr
[07:23] <holler> you sure there are no options?
[07:23] <diamond_sword> Jordan_U, I didn't know the package name, I found it on Synaptic.
[07:23] <Jordan_U> holler: The purpose of encryption is to prevent access by those that don't have the credentials.
[07:24] <Jordan_U> diamond_sword: Do you know the package name now? What are you trying to install?
[07:24] <holler> Jordan_U: im locked out of my own computer... :/ but even mounting via live cd or via grub/root there is nothing?
[07:24] <holler> i set this up so long ago and i dont remember the darn passphrase
[07:24] <holler> ugh
[07:25] <Jordan_U> holler: Not for your encrypted files, no. You can create a new user and do whatever you want with the machine, but you'll need the password to access the encrypted files.
[07:26] <holler> unreal
[07:26] <Jordan_U> holler: The documentation recommends backing up the key file, but hardly anyone actually does. If you did do that, then just use your backup of the key file to decrypt the files.
[07:26] <holler> do you know where that backup would live by default?
[07:28] <Jordan_U> holler: I don't think there is any default location, and keeping it on the same machine would defeat the purpose (the intention for the backup is that it be on physically secured removable media, like a flash drive in a safe).
[07:28] <holler> Jordan_U: as root I can see home/<user>/.ecryptfs/<user>/.Private
[07:28] <holler> that wouldnt be it would it?
[07:29] <Jordan_U> holler: Look at the files there. They are all encrypted.
[07:29] <holler> Jordan_U:
[07:29] <holler> er
[07:30] <Jordan_U> holler: That is where the encrypted files are stored, so no that is not where a backup of the keyfile would be. You almost certainly don't have such a backup.
[07:30] <holler> Jordan_U: what is /home/user/.ecryptfs/user/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase
[07:30] <holler> if i do "cat file" i see some type of hash
[07:32] <Jordan_U> holler: That is a file that is encrypted with your login passphrase and contains the ecryptfs passphrase which actually allows you to decrypt the files.
[07:32] <holler> Jordan_U: ok but there is no way to use it to get the passphrase back? i guess not if its encrypted itself
[07:33] <holler> darn
[07:33] <holler> :/
[07:37] <fullstack> When I try to install Jenkins, it wants 'daemons'? Huh? 14.04. The following packages have unmet dependencies: jenkins : Depends: daemon but it is not installable

[07:46] <tester> hi master

[07:53] <e8newallm> I have two SSDs in my PC, one has Ubuntu on, and one has just data on it. I've tried to mount the data one to a folder, but Ubuntu still writes to the OS SSD instead of the Data one, even though Ubuntu says the Data SSD is mounted to that folder. Did I not setup /etc/fstab right?
[07:54] <craysiii> o.O
[07:55] <e8newallm> When I type umount for it, it says that it isn't mounted, but typing mount says it's mounted too :P
[07:56] <e8newallm> I should also add that these SSDs were in a two disk RAID 0 before this, and they've seemed to be playing up since then
[07:58] <e8newallm> Oh wait, that's not 100% true actually
[08:01] <aaas> is there any way to see the response from the server when try and do public key auth using ssh.  I use -vvv and it says 'we setna public key packet, wait for reply' but I don't see any ifno about the reply.  I don't ahve access to the server logs or config files permississons on sshd_config and /var/log stuff is locked down just want to know why i cant do pub key auth

[08:15] <Bitnova> hi, is it possible to encrypt home directory EXCEPT one folder of your choice within it?
[08:16] <BlackDex> tachibana: What i now is that much just works out of the box. And with each kernel it has better support or atleast some bugs fixed
[08:17] <tachibana> wat
[08:17] <BlackDex> Does someone knows a way to block specific OSD Notifications?
[08:26] <jon21> Hi, Will Someone tell me how linux handles paging in the absence of swap?
[08:27] <Jordan_U> e8newallm: Please pastebin the error message from umount, the output of "sudo blkid" and the contents of /proc/mounts .
[08:28] <Jordan_U> jon21: In the absence of swap no memory gets paged out.
[08:28] <e8newallm> Jordan_U: Oh sorry, I got it working, thanks though :P
[08:29] <Jordan_U> jon21: When memory gets exhausted the kernel's OOM killer is triggered which then tries (using imperfext heuristics) to kill a process that is "unimportant" and using a lot of RAM.
[08:29] <jon21> Jordan_U: so not major page faults?
[08:29] <jon21> Jordan_U: so not major page faults?
[08:30] <Jordan_U> jon21: Correct. Why do you ask?
[08:31] <Mathisen> hello, how can i use higher resolusion then 1024 * 768 ? cant set it higher then that in X
[08:32] <jon21> Jordan_U: But in the output "ps -eo maj_flt | sort -nk1" I see processes with number more than zero?
[08:32] <Jordan_U> Mathisen: What graphics card? Being stuck in a low resolution generally means that you're not using the proper video drivers for your card.
[08:32] <jon21> Jordan_U: maj_flt should be 0.
[08:33] <Mathisen> Jordan_U, im not 100% on what is in this machine.. how do i check it ?
[08:33] <jon21> Jordan_U: FYI i don't have swap activated.
[08:34] <jon21> Mathisen: try lspci or lsusb or lscpu
[08:34] <Jordan_U> jon21: Possibly mmaped files.

[08:37] <Bitnova> hi, is it possible to encrypt home directory EXCEPT one folder of your choice within it?
[08:38] <jon21> Jordan_U: That explains a lot.
[08:40] <Mathisen> Bitnova, why do that ? why not just make a folder outside the /home
[08:42] <Bitnova> well, Mathisen thats what im also trying to find out. But i still want to know if its possible.
[08:43] <Mathisen> Bitnova, i would say no, i think you need to copy /home somewhere else remove encryption then move back
[08:43] <Bitnova> yea.. but its not really good to remove encryption is it.
[08:43] <Bitnova> Mathisen
[08:43] <Mathisen> Bitnova, thats up to you :)

[08:46] <Mathisen> anyone that can help me with my resolusion problem ? card is " Radeon HD 6530D " ubuntu 15.10 ..
[08:52] <hateball> Mathisen: have you installed the proper driver using the additional drivers dialogue?
[08:53] <Mathisen> hateball, no im using the drivers the installer got me
[08:54] <Mathisen> i seen online alot of guides, but i dont want to reboot into a black sceen, so thats why im asking for some help
[08:55] <hateball> Mathisen: I see. Well I sadly know nothing about AMD gpu, perhaps someone else will tho if you stick around
[08:55] <hateball> !ati
[09:03] <mcphail> Mathisen: have you been doing anything odd, like booting with "nomodeset"?
[09:04] <_banana> Jordan_U: sorry for delay in response. Because when I tried installing MongoDB on 15.10, which is not officially supported, I got a message that essentialy said I had to use upstart, which I installed (and it automatically uninstalled systemd).
[09:06] <sjoshi> _banana: this will help : http://tecadmin.net/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/
[09:06] <_banana> Incidentally, the two LTS versions u mention are the only two Ubuntu versions supported by MongoDB
[09:06] <_banana> sjoshi: thank u
[09:07] <sjoshi> _banana: just follow the steps, it should work..
[09:08] <_banana> sjoshi: but I run 15.10. SHould I use the Debian install procedure?
[09:09] <_banana> i.e., completely uninstall my current MOngoDB install, remove upstart and replace with systemd and start anew?
[09:11] <pnwise> Does anyone knows why xset doesn't work in any kind of script?
[09:11] <pnwise> Only from a terminal
[09:12] <_banana> gotta go. thanks for all your help. over & out.
[09:12] <popey> pnwise: probably your environment and DISPLAY variables aren't set

[09:16] <p4trix> I want to buy the Dell XPS 15 with the 4K screen. How do I know if everyhthing goes well with Ubuntu?
[09:16] <p4trix> Is there some recommended laptop to use Ubuntu with. I need it as workstation for web development.
[09:16] <p4trix> ?
[09:18] <popey> Thinkpads always fare well for me
[09:19] <p4trix> Sounds good.
[09:19] <popey> http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/desktop/ is a good place to start, maybe
[09:19] <p4trix> Nice, thank you
[09:23] <invano> p4trix: 4K screens are not 100% supported yet. I have an XPS 15 with Ubuntu Gnome and I still have some issues.. first of all with external monitors
[09:24] <Mathisen> mcphail, no i have not done anything odd
[09:24] <pnwise> popey do you know what other variables I should look for besides DISPLAY?
[09:24] <Mathisen> mcphail, still a basic install with only cinnamon installed after
[09:24] <p4trix> invano, thats a shame. I was really interested in that one. I kinda envy you. But not for the problems xD.
[09:25] <mcphail> Mathisen: have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution , especially the bit about using "cvt" to add new modelines
[09:26] <guest70193> is the idea of using dm crypt + luks that you first encrypt the partition then install OS later on it?
[09:26] <invano> p4trix: well, except for the 4K screen it works flawlessly eh
[09:27] <p4trix> invano, There is a version of the XPS without 4k. Maybe I just get that one?
[09:29] <madhumper69> configuring remote desktop with ubuntu has been uterly a nightmare! i have remote working from android by using bVNC however using any other vnc application in windows does not work. after lots of reading and searching apperently an issue with ssl? apperently i can disable the encryption but the command is not working... thanks
[09:32] <invano> p4trix, wait. With issues I mean that 1. some apps may result really tiny if they don't have 4k support 2. you need to play manually with external monitors. At least in my case, forget automatic recognition of external monitors and optimal resolutions. And I still have problems with some projectors I tried over HDMI (not recognized at all)
[09:33] <popey> pnwise: sorry, i don't know
[09:34] <p4trix> invano, that doesnt sound that bad. I have to think it through well. Thank you for your feedback.
[09:35] <madhumper69> how to disable 18 TLS security for remote desktop? i keep getting errors when trying to disable

[09:45] <nareshnk> PFA http://imgur.com/a/4Ky3G
[09:45] <nareshnk> i am sharing some screen shot which i have taken from my WebMin which is showing Apache creating lot of process which are eating too much memory and CPU utilization.
[09:52] <rilleh> nareshnk: Maybe try httpd worker?
[09:53] <nareshnk> rilleh, sorry ?
[09:53] <nareshnk> can you please elaborate.
[09:53] <rilleh> https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/worker.html
[09:53] <rilleh> It spawns threads instead of processes
[09:54] <rilleh> Depending on application, it can do alot in terms of performance
[09:54] <nareshnk> ok. So that could solve my problem .. but could we dont know why the lot of process are creating ?
[09:56] <rilleh> Poor tweaking I would presume?
[09:57] <rilleh> Read up on how to properly tune your apache settings nareshnk
[09:59] <madhumper69> wow im a genius figured out how to disable 18 TLS security so that remote desktop works without encryption i guess now i need to set it up to ssh to have some form of security :D

[10:40] <spm_draget> If someone compiled mesa from GIT and used 'make install', how do I recover from that? Simply 'apt-get install --reinstall <package>'? Will this also take care of the dependencies.
[10:41] <popey> spm_draget: maybe it has a make uninstall? Check the Makefile
[10:41] <spm_draget> popey: I will check, thanks.
[10:41] <spm_draget> Can I force apt to reinstall a package with all its dependencies?
[10:41] <popey> sure

[10:59] <BlackDalek> I have a USB soundcard device which is identified as C-Media Electronics, Inc. Storm HP-USB500 5.1 Headset. It shows up in alsamixer and pavucontrol, but will not show up in the unity control center/sound settings so I cannot select it as the output device for audio. Why?
[11:00] <popey> BlackDalek: that's odd, if it shows up in pavucontrol, it certainly should show up in the unity control panel sound applet thing
[11:00] <popey> BlackDalek: maybe bounce pluseaudio with "pulseaudio -k" and see if it appears?
[11:01] <BlackDalek> popey, it doesn't. Or rather it does - but ONLY as an input device, NOT output device.
[11:01] <popey> odd
[11:01] <popey> sorry, dunno why that would be
[11:02] <BlackDalek> popey, it shows up as output devices in alsamixer AND pavucontrol
[11:02] <BlackDalek> popey, pulseaudio -k show nothing.
[11:02] <popey> seeing bugs in launchpad about the device, so seems some people get it working, but use alsamixer to adjust volume
[11:03] <popey> that just restarts pulse
[11:03] <popey> thats all
[11:03] <BlackDalek> oh ok
[11:04] <BlackDalek> popey, ok, restarting pulse has made the device magically appear as a selectable output device now.
[11:05] <popey> woot
[11:05] <popey> magic
[11:06] <BlackDalek> popey, yep.  For example, after installing Sublime Text and entering a licence key, the unity launcher still displays "Sublime Text (UNREGISTERED)"
[11:07] <popey> BlackDalek: no idea
[11:07] <oplo> How to make wget the default downlooad manager rather than the firefox downloader?
[11:07] <popey> g105b: because the license key install doesn't change the desktop file
[11:07] <popey> g105b: you can manually fudge that away if you want.
[11:07] <g105b> popey: the desktop file is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15090271/
[11:08] <g105b> popey: double clicking on that still displays the unregistered message.
[11:08] <popey> g105b: the .desktop file in /usr/share/applications ?
[11:08] <g105b> popey: yes
[11:09] <popey> you can force it to update... http://askubuntu.com/a/447703/612
[11:09] <popey> that au answer says how
[11:12] <g105b> popey: hmm, no luck still. I created the .desktop file outside of /usr/share/applciations and ran the command, still shows the wrong title.
[11:12] <g105b> also tried killall unity-scope-home
[11:16] <oplo> Hello!
[11:17] <oplo> How to make wget the default downlooad manager rather than the firefox downloader?
[11:17] <g105b> oplo: I think that's more of a Firefox question, because FF will want to handle that for security reasons.
[11:17] <g105b> oplo: So to answer, probably with a Firefox extension.

[11:27] <reisio> for someone who uses MP3s

[11:29] <C2CNL> my desktop (which was a server first) sometimes kills my whole network... any clues what might be going on?
[11:29] <C2CNL> It was a dhcp server and dns server befor
[11:29] <C2CNL> but i've disabled that, a reboot of the desktop fixes it
[11:30] <jushur> C2CNL: you have a new dhcp/dns server on the network?
[11:30] <C2CNL> the router, yes
[11:31] <jushur> C2CNL: sounds more like the router dies from time to time.
[11:31] <amyemleo_> +r
[11:31] <C2CNL> then why does rebooting the desktop fix it?
[11:32] <jushur> C2CNL: the router has caching dns server? and its not enabled on the wan side?
[11:32] <C2CNL> it's set up properly
[11:32] <C2CNL> DNS isn't the problem
[11:33] <jushur> C2CNL: what router exactly?
[11:33] <C2CNL> Asus RT-AC66U
[11:35] <jushur> C2CNL: I think you should try with another router.
[11:35] <llutz> C2CNL: next time your network was "killed" check all running services/tasks on your desktop, if you suspect it to be the cause of the trouble
[11:41] <jushur> C2CNL: you have some cron setup for the dhcp/dns services on the desktop that you forgot to disable?

[12:16] <popey> Mathisen: yes!
[12:16] <popey> Mathisen: no idea why, and it was annoying enough that was one reason I switched from it
[12:16] <Mathisen> popey, okej i guess thats way it should work then
[12:17] <Pantsu> [[thufir]]: pastebinit sucks anyway
[12:17] <Mathisen> yeah it is kinda anoying but i like hexchat
[12:17] <Pantsu> [[thufir]]: https://ptpb.pw/  (it also has a cli client)
[12:18] <[[thufir]]> Pantsu: perhaps so, but I'd still like to be able to install packages.  It's a fairly new install, just a few days old.  removing /etc/postfix/ and /etc/dovecot/ seem to have really caused some sort of system problem.

[12:46] <HakkaH> Q: I upgrade to mysql 5.6 yesterday but the client still says I use 5.5.47 instead of 5.6.28 although I installed mysql-client-5.6 mysql-client-core-5.6 and mysql-server-5.6
[12:49] <DiamondSword> how to remove a program installed from a .deb file?
[12:49] <DiamondSword> I can't see it on Software Center.
[12:50] <cfhowlett> DiamondSword, sudo dpkg -r foo.deb and stop installing random .debs. use the software center.
[12:50] <ioria> HakkaH, are you on trusty ?
[12:51] <HakkaH> yes 14.04
[12:51] <ioria> !info mysql-server trusty
[12:51] <DiamondSword> cfhowlett, dpkg: error: you must specify packages by their own names, not by quoting the names of the files they come in
[12:51] <DiamondSword> sorry, I'm new to Linux
[12:51] <ioria> HakkaH, so you should have  5.5.47
[12:52] <cfhowlett> DiamondSword, what is the package name
[12:52] <DiamondSword> cfhowlett, touchpad indicator
[12:52] <DiamondSword> I guess
[12:52] <HakkaH> I know I upgraded to 5.6 only the server is 5.6.28 but the client seems to still be on 5.5.47
[12:52] <cfhowlett> do not guess!  paste the package label
[12:53] <DiamondSword> cfhowlett, touchpad-indicator_1.0.4-0extras14.04.1_all.deb
[12:53] <DiamondSword> cfhowlett, I don't know package label.
[12:54] <HakkaH> ubuntu does give a 5.6 package for both server and client it's just not the default one that gets installed
[12:55] <cfhowlett> DiamondSword, sudo dpkg -r touchpad-indicator
[12:55] <DiamondSword> cfhowlett, what differs dpkg and apt-get ?
[12:55] <HakkaH> the server updated nicely to 5.6 however libmysql give me 5.5.47 which should as well be updated to 5.6 when I did "sudo apt-get install mysql-client-5.6 mysql-client-core-5.6"
[12:55] <cfhowlett> DiamondSword, dpkg doesn't address dependencies.
[12:57] <ioria> HakkaH,  maybe you have to remove the old version, first
[13:00] <HakkaH> I did that
[13:00] <HakkaH> but aparently somewhere it still has something running
[13:01] <HakkaH> purge mysql-client and mysql-client-core gave not installed
[13:01] <HakkaH> also specifically a 5.5 gave not installed
[13:01] <ioria> HakkaH,  find out with dpkg -l | grep mysql-client*
[13:02] <gerritjan> hello i try to install a theme but i cant see anyway to install it with tweak tool or somting @all because it doesnt show up in the list
[13:02] <ioria> HakkaH,  and did you run autoremove after the purge ?
[13:02] <gerritjan> im using gnome 3.16
[13:04] <HakkaH> yes
[13:05] <ioria> HakkaH, apt-cache policy mysql-client* | pastebinit

[13:09] <Neofrontier> ( I have jack running )
[13:10] <gerritjan> can sombody help me with that
[13:10] <Razva> AtuM yeah but that will only show what users are logged in, not what they are "typing"
[13:10] <ioria> HakkaH, looks ok
[13:11] <AtuM> Razva, so you want a keyboard logger... I have not used one yet..
[13:11] <HakkaH> yes but phpmyadmin and info.php keeps giving me 5.5.47
[13:12] <Mathisen> Razva, http://sniffy.sourceforge.net/
[13:12] <HakkaH> Your PHP MySQL library version 5.5.47 differs from your MySQL server version 5.6.28. This may cause unpredictable behavior.
[13:14] <gerritjan> i did install it in /usr/share/themes and ~/.themes but tweak util doesnt show it up in the list
[13:14] <ioria> HakkaH,    apt-cache policy libmysqlclient18 | pastebinit
[13:16] <HakkaH> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15091020/
[13:16] <HakkaH> there we have it
[13:20] <EriC^^> Razva: with their knowledge?
[13:23] <HakkaH> hmm strange it is the latest version they have for trusty there is no 5.6 version of it
[13:23] <ioria> HakkaH,    right
[13:23] <HakkaH> so that shouldn't matter then
[13:24] <ioria> HakkaH,    right
[13:27] <HakkaH> thanks for helping me out ioria
[13:27] <ioria> HakkaH,    no problem
[13:30] <ioria> HakkaH,    mysql-common  is 5.6   or 5.5 ?
[13:32] <HakkaH> also 5.5.47

[13:33] <ioria> !info mysql-common-5.6 trusty

[13:36] <ioria> HakkaH,   ok
[13:36] <llutz> [[thufir]]: ls -ld /var/mail
[13:37] <HakkaH> both common and common5.6 are installed but that shouldn't be a problem
[13:38] <ioria> HakkaH,   did you reboot after the upgrade ?

[13:39] <HakkaH> no I restarted the services
[13:39] <[[thufir]]> llutz: http://askubuntu.com/questions/735337/   might be related to dovecot or postfix

[13:43] <IsPrime> I run sudo apt-get install cvs and it gave the info below

[13:48] <PCatinean> Hey guys, is it possible to have from a notebook in ubuntu 14.04 LTS a extra monitor and another on hdmi?
[13:48] <HakkaH> ioria yes but that doesn't solve it and frankly I do not care about a wrning that much it's just that I thought it would just say 5.6.28
[13:48] <IsPrime> that was the iso offered by parallel desktop and I wasn't aware of it.
[13:48] <PCatinean> And have them work in paralel? I'm trying to do that with a dell monitor and samsung TV but when I plug in the tv it gives an error and will not switch on
[13:48] <MonkeyDust> IsPrime  ok, my advice, backup and install 14.04 ... during install, create a separate /home partition, so you your personal documents and settings are safe
[13:49] <ioria> HakkaH,   yes, php involved rather than mysql
[13:50] <llutz> [[thufir]]: if you configure postfix to use dovecot for delivery, you need to setup dovecot as well
[13:50] <PCatinean> anyone?
[13:51] <IsPrime> MonkeyDust I'd start now.Actually I'm a newbie,so nothing much on this os.
[13:51] <IsPrime> MonkeyDust but backup is always a good idea.
[13:52] <MonkeyDust> IsPrime  partitioning is the hardest part for beginners ... come here for advice
[13:52] <IsPrime> MonkeyDust that's what I need indeed

[13:54] <mcphail> MonkeyDust: no need to keep a separate /home partition for these purposes. Just adds needless complexity
[13:56] <IsPrime> MonkeyDust what's the relatively good version of Ubuntu?
[13:57] <IsPrime> MonkeyDust I'm doing some exercise on it ...
[13:58] <MonkeyDust> IsPrime  14.04 if you want long support, 15.10 if you want the latest

[13:59] <IsPrime> MonkeyDust thanks for the advice:)
[14:00] <MonkeyDust> IsPrime  good luck
[14:01] <EriC^^> Cem_Nome5: what's the problem?
[14:01] <EriC^^> that's the PS2 emulator right?
[14:01] <Cem_Nome5> ps1 actually
[14:01] <Cem_Nome5> everything works just fine
[14:02] <Cem_Nome5> but the "configure" button for plugins doesnt do anything at all
[14:02] <EriC^^> how did you install it?
[14:02] <Cem_Nome5> downloaded it
[14:04] <Cem_Nome5> I can't find anyone in the web with the same problem as me lol
[14:04] <EriC^^> did you try the emulator in the repos?
[14:04] <EriC^^> pcsxr ?
[14:04] <Cem_Nome5> no
[14:05] <EriC^^> Cem_Nome5: give it a shot maybe
[14:05] <Cem_Nome5> I'll try it out
[14:05] <Cem_Nome5> Im also downloading another ISO
[14:05] <Cem_Nome5> because the one Im trying to run needs special fix
[14:05] <Cem_Nome5> that's why I needed to config video plugin
[14:05] <EriC^^> ah

[14:34] <ikonia> you want adobe, use windows or a mac
[14:36] <NooBuntu> k, thanks. My problem is that I've mistakenly installed Ubuntu on a C/ alongside with Win7. I made a smaller partition (20gb) first but it has been installed n C and now I cannot use almost 80% of my hard disk space. Question is: Is there a painless way to "save" my OS, clean the mess with the partitions with e.g. format and then put again my ubuntu on a clean pc?
[14:37] <NooBuntu> as You may guess I am new to linux systems so.. ;/
[14:39] <hateball> NooBuntu: you can use gparted-live to resize/move your partitions without having to reinstall
[14:40] <hateball> NooBuntu: That is, run gparted from for instance the Ubuntu install media
[14:40] <llutz> NooBuntu: make sure to have actual backups before
[14:40] <ralpheeee> looking to try ubbuntu (15.10)...my question is if i install with luks and lvm can i upg to 16.04 ...
[14:40] <Nukien> How would one use parted in a script to create a partition of a given size at the *end* of the disk ?  Not knowing the actual size of the disk ...
[14:40] <Nukien> I want the equivalent of "mkpart -256MiB -1" to make a 256M partition at the *end*
[14:41] <NooBuntu> I've tried to resize the partition with gpartd but it cannot be done ;(
[14:41] <hateball> NooBuntu: How so? You cannot do it from your installed OS, it must be done when it is unmounted (hence live media)
[14:42] <NooBuntu> IC, thanks a lot! :)
[14:42] <Guest44221> can i get ebook backbox?
[14:42] <hateball> NooBuntu: but as llutz said, be careful and take backups in case you have valuable data
[14:43] <NooBuntu> Roger! :) Good day everyone!
[14:47] <Nukien> Any ideas on creating a partition of a given size at the *end* of a disk ?
[14:48] <hateball> Nukien: suppose it could be done by parsing fdisk output
[14:49] <Nukien> Yeah - I'm about to script up a hack using blockdev --getsz or similar
[14:49] <gmbs> What does this mean?  W: Failed to fetch http://ubuntu.mirrors.tds.net/pub/ubuntu/dists/trusty-security/main/binary-i386/Packages  Hash Sum mismatch

[14:50] <MonkeyDust> what's the factoid for hash sum?
[14:51] <sina> hello there

[14:52] <col> sorry, i meant im on 15.04. Should I upgrade to 15.10  or wait for 16.04?
[14:52] <popey> col: i would upgrade to 15.10
[14:52] <popey> (then 16.04 in april)
[14:52] <col> ok
[14:52] <MonkeyDust> gmbs  the link is dead

[14:53] <col> I installed nvidias driver
[14:53] <col> i need to remove it
[14:53] <popey> col: glxinfo usually provides copious detail
[14:53] <col> thank you
[14:53] <gmbs> MonkeyDust, Ok. Change mirrors. Thanks
[14:53] <DJones> col: You'd have to upgrade to 15.10 before you can upgrade to 16.04 when that gets released anyway, you can't go directly from 15.04 to 16.04
[14:53] <popey> well, you can, but we don't recommend it usually  😃
[14:54] <popey> Guest17268: feel free to pm me about the mails you're sending

[15:12] <ikonia> are you sure it's not power saving kickig in on either side
[15:12] <MonkeyDust> SchrodingersScat  that's called 'keep-alive'
[15:12] <ikonia> is it a firewall hitting an idle time out
[15:12] <SchrodingersScat> ikonia: pretty sure it's not the server side, a remote machine can connect to the same machine indefinitely so long as they're powered on.
[15:13] <SchrodingersScat> MonkeyDust: K, so I guess my question is why does my laptop not keep alive.  Is this maybe something in ssh_config or sshd_config?
[15:13] <ikonia> ssh_config is a client connection, -o keepalive
[15:14] <SchrodingersScat> and the connection fails both ways, a reverse tunnel back to the laptop is also erratic.  k, I'll check for that.
[15:14] <ikonia> I'd also be looking at any firewalls it passes through
[15:16] <SchrodingersScat> k, added a keepalive.
[15:19] <raksh93> hi does anyone here have experience installing gnome on ubuntu using jhbuild?
[15:21] <fatal4> Whats jbuild ?
[15:22] <raksh93> its a tool for installing apps
[15:22] <Xero0042> To setup an SFTP server, all I have to do is install openssh-server, correct?
[15:22] <fatal4> God you ppl
[15:23] <fatal4> Answer a damn question.
[15:23] <raksh93> can anyone help me on this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/15092361/
[15:23] <MonkeyDust> fatal4  sure you want to be here?
[15:23] <fatal4> Just use apt-get from the terminal
[15:24] <mark28> :) The moderator k1l is a filthy c unt. :) his mother will die from breast cancer soon.      I'm setting "d-i passwd/make-user boolean false" in my preseed file, but if i boot the installation images it still want's to set up a normal user account. did anything changed in the newer versions of the ubuntu installer?
[15:27] <fatal4> Sexy
[15:27] <fatal4> Hes gay then ?
[15:29] <fatal4> No answer .....shocker
[15:29] <Pici> lets move on
[15:30] <deem> oh. nvm... seems like the installer ignores the whole preseed file oO
[15:30] <andybrine> Hey Everyone
[15:31] <andybrine> Quick question, im using gnome calendar and I cant see the settings option. Does anyone know where I can add calendars?
[15:33] <deem> any idea where the installer caches/saves the preseed file after it got retrieved?
[15:37] <thresh> Any idea when the updated libc6 packages will land for trusty?
[15:37] <Pici> thresh: unknown as of yet.
[15:38] <thresh> Pici: thanks.
[15:39] <kz_i20me0> Hi all
[15:40] <user> hey
[15:43] <fatal4> Trolls in slackware just a heads up
[15:48] <BalTun>  Hello! I very much need to make SKYPE work to share my desktop environment during the call.  Originally it had Windows 8, then I installed Ubuntu with issues, then tried to wipe and go back to Windows, which failed miserably. I have Ubuntu running now, but it's required for me to plug a thumb drive into my computer and mash Esc when the computer boots up, and then boot from the USB (I can remove the USB afterwards and it works fine). I was hoping someone
[15:57] <Rush2112> me figure out why my laptop is so fucky, and if there's a way to restore it to 100% optimization
[15:58] <teward> Rush2112: not swearing is a good start
[15:58] <teward> !language | Rush2112
[15:58] <Rush2112> My bad, I'm used to other channels where that's the norm, I'll try not to be profane.
[15:58] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: how about you explain whats wrong with your ubuntu
[16:00] <Rush2112> The thing is that I'm not really sure what's wrong with it, I just know it's not working as well as it could be. Having to boot from USB is a problem, as well as the fact that I get error messages that are seemingly for nothing when I start up. Internet connections may or may not work (I have to just close the laptop lid and open it and hope it fixes itself) as well as things just being weird, I don't know what other way to put it.
[16:00] <Rush2112> Is there some kind of diagnostic I can run?
[16:01] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: ubuntu version? is it installed already or are you trying to install?
[16:03] <jak2000> hi all
[16:03] <Rush2112> It's installed already, I believe, I just have to boot from USB. I have 14.04 LTS
[16:03] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: booting from usb is not an ubuntu problem right, but your bios key
[16:04] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: check the ##hardware channel to enter boot sequence or bios
[16:05] <Rush2112> I guess so? I don't know much about BIOS, but my version of Ubuntu still doesn't feel right, certain things don't work (I can never install Flash), sometimes downloads don't work through the Ubuntu Software Center, network connections randomly pop in and out. My computer is slow and sluggish ever since I moved to Ubuntu
[16:05] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: try chromium-browser to play flash
[16:05] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: wifi or cable?
[16:05] <Rush2112> wifi
[16:05] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: wifi chipset?
[16:06] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: did you check additional drivers section also, if you have best drivers for your system?
[16:06] <Rush2112> I don't know, my point is that my computer has been performing a lot worse ever since I switched from Windows, and I know Ubuntu itsef isn't a bad platform, so I know there's something wrong with my distribution or installation. Is there a diagnostic I can run to see what's wrong with it?
[16:07] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: i advise taking one problem at the time to solve
[16:07] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: sluggish feeling can get caused by several things, so we need to investigate first
[16:08] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: pastebin sudo lshw -C network and sudo lshw -C video would be a good start
[16:08] <Rush2112> right, so that's why i was hoping there's a diagnostic I can run to see what's wrong with the system in general
[16:08] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: you can diagnose in the syslog or dmesg
[16:09] <Rush2112> Ok, I'm pastebin'ing the results from those sudo commands now.
[16:11] <Rush2112> http://hastebin.com/agatemonum.sm here is the results for network
[16:11] <Rush2112> http://hastebin.com/vufikidida.sm and video
[16:11] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: are you up to date also?
[16:12] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: try a sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade
[16:13] <Rush2112> ok, doing that now
[16:15] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: let me know if it upgrades?
[16:15] <Rush2112> oh, eah it's currently upgrading
[16:15] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: ok good, please always keep your system up to date as possible
[16:17] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: after the upgrade: sudo apt-get install chromium-browser preload
[16:17] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: and reboot
[16:20] <Rush2112> will do
[16:22] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: after the reboot, come back and try to detail one problem at time, to solve ok
[16:22] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: and try your flash sites with chromium
[16:23] <Rush2112> alright, i'll be sure to do that
[16:24] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: your getting system errors at boot also?
[16:25] <Rush2112> i think so but i'll make a note if it happens again when i restart
[16:25] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: ok good luck
[16:35] <bingessd> how to use apparmor and enable it??
[16:36] <lotuspsychje> bingessd: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppArmor

[16:42] <guite> Hi everyone, I’d like to install perf, which is supposed to be in package linux-tools-common, but my ubuntu doesn’t want me to install it. It says `linux-lts-utopic-tools-3.16.0-34 : Depends: linux-lts-utopic-tools-common but it is not going to be installed`
[16:42] <guite> Have you got a quick workaround ? :)
[16:42] <guite> install -f didn’t do better
[16:42] <Rush2112> lotuspsychje: I'm at this weird window (my terminal), there's a box that says "Configuring grub-pc", with "GRUB install devices:" underneath. Underneath that are two lines, one of which is "/dev/sda (500107 MB; Hitachi_HTS545050A7E380)", and the other being "- /dev/sda1 (496393 MB /)
[16:42] <bingessd> is apparmor enabled by default in ubuntu?
[16:43] <MonkeyDust> !utopic | guite
[16:43] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: are you still upgrading, or what are you doing now?
[16:43] <ScMnDak> anyone have MRTG insight?
[16:44] <jak2000> cpaelzer thanks
[16:44] <MonkeyDust> guite  what's the output of   cat /etc/issue
[16:44] <guite> oh god >_M

[16:44] <guite> >_<
[16:44] <bingessd> how to use rkhunter to delete suspect files after scan
[16:45] <Rush2112> lotuspsychje: I was upgrading, and I alt tabbed and did some other stuff. When I came back to check on it, the terminal changed to the box I just told you about
[16:45] <guite> MonkeyDust: do-release-upgrade tells me there aren’t any upgrade available
[16:45] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: let it run the upgrade whatever it shows
[16:45] <MonkeyDust> guite  14.04.3 is ok
[16:45] <guite> phew \o/
[16:45] <bingessd> does anyone know of rkhunter
[16:46] <guite> so now, what should I do
[16:46] <guite> ?
[16:46] <Rush2112> ok but its asking me to install GRUB to devices, should i do that?
[16:46] <MonkeyDust> guite  sudo apt install linux-tools-common   does that give the error?
[16:46] <guite> yes
[16:47] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: what does it ask exactly? you had grub running fine before right?
[16:47] <guite> I don’t remember the command for sending messages to ubuntu-paste
[16:47] <MonkeyDust> guite  pastebinit
[16:48] <guite> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15093835/
[16:48] <Braybaut> guite, use pasterbin
[16:48] <Rush2112> ok, it says "The GRUB boot loader was previously installed to a disk that is no longer present, or whose unique identifier has changed for some reason. It is important to make usre that the installed GRUB core stays the same..."
[16:48] <guite> MonkeyDust: thanks :)
[16:48] <guite> OK in french :(
[16:48] <MonkeyDust> guite  first: sudo apt update
[16:48] <guite> and no, there is no error
[16:48] <guite> I did that already
[16:48] <MonkeyDust> guite  i speak and read french ok
[16:49] <guite> good :D
[16:49] <Rush2112> ok, i ended up telling it to install to whatever, which its doing so now
[16:49] <lotuspsychje> Rush2112: ok
[16:51] <guite> MonkeyDust: so, first I have this -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15093859/ , then this -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15093863/
[16:51] <guite> MonkeyDust: I did apt-get update before all that

[16:58] <Guest48968> Hi
[16:58] <Guest48968> Hello
[16:58] <Braybaut> hello
[16:59] <Guest48968> do you know how to install kali on ununtu?
[16:59] <Guest48968> unbuntu*
[16:59] <Braybaut> not possible, kali linux is distributions based in Debian
[16:59] <Braybaut> you can install packages of kali linux in Ubuntu
[17:00] <Guest48968> can you help me on that?
[17:00] <Tobias92> I have a deployment of Ubuntu on several machines. Home directories are mounted over NFS. About 3-4 times a week a machine completely locks up and only rebooting will make it responsive. The syslog says "VFS: file-max limit 317907 reached" (or thereabout). I have not been able to identify a single process that uses too many file handles. Does anybody have a suggestion?
[17:00] <Guest48968> you can install packages of kali linux in Ubuntu can you help me on that?
[17:01] <k1l> Guest48968: what program do you need?
[17:01] <Guest48968> really i need them all.
[17:01] <k1l> ok, that sounds like you will want to use kali anyway, and not ubuntu.
[17:01] <Myrtti> Braybaut, Guest48968: installing kali apps into ubuntu is calling for trouble, it's not only once I've seen people just end up in an irredeemable mess that can't be fixed
[17:02] <MarderIII> Tobias: Checked with lsof I presume?
[17:02] <Myrtti> if you need kali apps, install kali
[17:02] <k1l> and if you dont know which apps you need, you dont want to mess with an ubuntu install anyway
[17:02] <Guest48968> about that. when i try to making it into dual boot my usb dont pop up
[17:02] <Braybaut> Myrtti, if use repository of Kalinux for install packages in ubuntu, it present problems
[17:02] <lotuspsychje> Guest48968: or install available pentesting apps from ubuntu repos
[17:03] <Myrtti> Braybaut: yes. I don't understand why you suggested it
[17:03] <Braybaut> Guest48968, the best is install kali linux in other partitions or use in liveCD
[17:03] <k1l> Braybaut: stop! dont do that
[17:03] <k1l> Braybaut: it will mix debian packages with ubuntu ones and will change the lsb_release to kali which breaks ubuntu updates.
[17:04] <Guest48968> @k1l Unbuntu good in all but im not a fan of it
[17:04] <Braybaut> Myrtti, ok :)
[17:05] <Myrtti> Guest48968: then install kali - end of troubles and you get what you want.
[17:05] <Guest48968> :)
[17:06] <Braybaut> k1l, I 'm not saying that, the best is install kali linux (distro) not packages of kali linux from repository in ubuntu
[17:06] <Braybaut> k1l, the best is install Kali linux or use liveCD
[17:06] <fission6> whats a recommended process manager tool? upstart?
[17:06] <coffeemug> hi is there an issue with gtx 960 and installation?
[17:06] <k1l> Braybaut: sorry, missread one word and it looked to me you were suggesting. sorry.
[17:06] <lotuspsychje> coffeemug: wich ubuntu version are you on?
[17:07] <Braybaut> k1l, although is posible install these packages from repository the ubuntu, example emmmm nmap
[17:07] <k1l> fission6: upstart for 14.04. since 15.04 its systemd
[17:07] <coffeemug> oh sorry, um 14.04.3
[17:07] <Tobias92> MarderIII, sorry I missed your message there. Yes, I did. I even had a script log the top 10 in lsof to a file every minute, that didn't get me any spike. I also found an old post on Stack Overflow which suggested it had something to do with NFSv4, but switching back to NFSv3 didn't make a difference.
[17:07] <fission6> k1l: whats sudo service nginx stop, is that upscript?
[17:07] <fission6> that pattern
[17:07] <lotuspsychje> coffeemug: as your card is pretty new, you could try 15.10 perhaps
[17:07] <Braybaut> k1l, jejej ok :)
[17:08] <coffeemug> aah okies thanks lotuspsychje
[17:08] <Guest48968> Thanks guys just got my other pc going to install kali on it :) Thanks
[17:08] <k1l> fission6: that is upstart
[17:08] <Braybaut> Guest48968, excelent =D
[17:08] <lotuspsychje> coffeemug: or try the daily image from 16.04 see #ubuntu+1
[17:08] <fission6> thanks k1l
[17:08] <MarderIII> Tobias92 My bad,didnt type your handle correctly
[17:09] <thms> Hi. I am using ubuntu server 15, and when installing nginx I get this: http://pastebin.com/raw/GcB3i8Wk
[17:09] <coffeemug> ok thanks lotuspsychje
[17:09] <thms> The server is a brand new install, what's wrong with it ?
[17:09] <k1l> thms: what does systemctl status nginx.service bring you?
[17:10] <thms> k1l: ho it ails to bind on port 80
[17:11] <thms> due to apache2 I guess
[17:11] <thms> Alright
[17:14] <lokien> hello. how can I get my wacom tablet's led displays to work?
[17:14] <MarderIII> Tobias92 more likely to be a kernel/module problem.          You might have a leak. Since you mentioned home directories. If they're workstations, maybe a browser and it's cache, etc, is opening all those files.
[17:17] <MoPac> Hello. I'm wondering if there is a way to put some dead space to the left of the launcher icons in Unity7 (whether actual extra pixels or just area on the icons where a click/touch would be ignored?)  With my touchscreen and desktop wall, it's a bit irritating at the moment where the UI doesn't know whether it wants to edge  flip or pick up and move a launcher icon
[17:17] <Tobias92> MarderIII,　that sounds plausible too. I wish I had a way to diagnose it properly though! I'm not running any special modules (besides maybe a radeon driver?)
[17:19] <Tobias92> lilvim, it's the clients I have to reboot; the server appears to be doing just fine. Also, we *do* have a local override that limits the amount of filesystem cache available to Chrome, but my first guess is that that could only limit the number of files open, right?
[17:20] <lilvim> What is output of cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max on the clients?
[17:21] <Tobias92> lilvim, it's at 317907
[17:21] <bithon> Braybaut: http://termbin.com/wayt
[17:21] <lokien> lotuspsychje: it has crashed :(
[17:21] <lotuspsychje> MoPac: did you try making the icons bigger?
[17:21] <Tobias92> lilvim, also, "sudo lsof | wc -l" gives me 74744 on a running system, so it's still a ways to go I'd say?
[17:21] <lotuspsychje> lokien: tryed a reboot?
[17:22] <angrywombat> is there a decent command line virus scanner i can use? need to scan a windows drive i popped in
[17:22] <lokien> lotuspsychje: I'll purge it, reinstall, and reboot
[17:22] <lotuspsychje> !info clamav | angrywombat
[17:22] <angrywombat> thanks
[17:22] <Braybaut> bithon, is error of gcc, it is based in some tuto ?
[17:22] <lokien> lotuspsychje: still, error. fingers crossed and reboot
[17:23] <MoPac> lotuspsychje: They're already at 40 or so. The issue isn't their absolute size -- it's that they fill the space all the way to the left of the screen (more or less). So they butt into the edge area that is used for edge flipping to the workspace to the left
[17:24] <lilvim> Tobias92: can't confirm lsof output will match exactly the numbe you're worried about that
[17:24] <lotuspsychje> MoPac: not sure then, perhaps play with ccsm and unity tweaking?
[17:24] <bithon> Braybaut: what do you mean ? yeah the error is coming from gcc obviously
[17:24] <lilvim> Tobias92: cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
[17:24] <lilvim> The first number in that output is the number of open file handles, the third number is the max
[17:24] <Tobias92> lilvim, ah, of course; that one's even lower: 36352
[17:25] <lilvim> Tobias92: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Tuning_and_Optimizing_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_for_Oracle_9i_and_10g_Databases/chap-Oracle_9i_and_10g_Tuning_Guide-Setting_File_Handles.html
[17:25] <bithon> Braybaut: I'm trying to compile kernel on my ubuntu server for my arch linux laptopt
[17:25] <lilvim> That's a redhat link, but has info that would apply to kernel parameter
[17:25] <bithon> it compiles fine on laptop but it's too slow
[17:26] <lokien> lotuspsychje: only two kernel panics! displays still not working.
[17:26] <lilvim> Tobias92: I would watch that first number and see how it increases, and where it is when you start to see the VFS messages. You can then try killing some processes to see if they clear up?
[17:27] <bithon> so.. does anyone know why gcc is being a derp
[17:27] <Tobias92> lilvim, thanks, I'll try that; going to try and get munin on these machines as well so I can automate this
[17:27] <lotuspsychje> lokien: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom
[17:27] <bithon> I installed the latest version from the ubuntu's offical repo
[17:27] <bithon> or rather the latest one provided by the cannonical
[17:27] <lotuspsychje> !latest | bithon
[17:27] <MarderIII> lilvim thanks for that link. that knowledge has sunk to far away 😕
[17:28] <lilvim> Tobias92: you probably read this link too already, but here it is: https://serverfault.com/questions/235059/vfs-file-max-limit-1231582-reached
[17:28] <lokien> lotuspsychje: I mean.. it is  working properly, besides these displays. and there is no info about them on that page
[17:28] <lilvim> Tobias92: like you said, could be an NFS locking bug.
[17:29] <lotuspsychje> lokien: not sure then mate
[17:29] <Tobias92> lilvim, indeed, I found that one too. Since switching to NFSv3 didn't make a difference, maybe I'll try disable locking (although that sounds like something I don't want to do)
[17:30] <lokien> lotuspsychje: found something here - http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Wacom_Tablet_Set_Up , I'll try that.
[17:30] <jgornick> Hey folks, inside an interfaces pre-start stanza, is there a way that I could have a command wait for a particular command to return with an exit code of 0? For example: pre-up for i in {1..60}; do sudo mmcli -m 0 && break || sleep 1; done; Essentially, I want to run the following stanzas until this returns with a status code of 0.
[17:31] <lokien> lotuspsychje: erm.. it should be in the kernel. from 3.2. eh.
[17:32] <MonkeyDust> jgornick  better ask in #bash
[17:32] <bithon> lotuspsychje: sure but that doesn't solve my problem
[17:32] <jgornick> MonkeyDust: Thanks!
[17:33] <lotuspsychje> bithon: re-ask your issue here once in a while all in one line, to get it solved
[17:34] <bithon> sure. i get odd error from gcc when I attempt to compile 4.4.1 from source. i am running ubuntu 14.04 with latest build-essential and all dependancies installed. This is the error I get: termbin.com/wayt
[17:34] <bithon> what am I doing wrong ?
[17:35] <lotuspsychje> bithon: whats the reason you dont use gcc version for 14.04?
[17:37] <bithon> lotuspsychje: I do use the one from build-essential.

[17:42] <musicgeek> Hi, I need assistance installing Ubuntu on a boot drive and using a separate internal drive as storage. I have no idea what do do in terms of partitions, mount points or file systems. I have a 120GB SSD for my boot drive and 1TB hard drive as my storage drive.
[17:43] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: use the ubuntu auto partitioning
[17:44] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: i would auto partition the ssd for ubuntu, after install you can format your external hd, to whatever you like
[17:44] <musicgeek> lotuspsychje: is that the option that says install Ubuntu over the existing operating system?
[17:45] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: that depends, what you want to do? singleboot? dualboot?
[17:45] <musicgeek> SIngle boot, I just want to boot Ubuntu off the SSD and use the other internal HDD for mass storage.
[17:45] <chelo> winblow on same HD?
[17:45] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: ok then install ubuntu yes, over the previous Os
[17:46] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: and make sure you select your ssd drive as target
[17:46] <musicgeek> Thanks, will do. Then do i just format the other drive in gparted once the installation is finished?
[17:46] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: yes
[17:47] <musicgeek> Thank you!
[17:47] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: wich ssd brand is this?
[17:47] <musicgeek> Sandisk SSD plus.
[17:47] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: ok, before install make sure you have latest firmware on it
[17:48] <musicgeek> I've already checked with Sandisk SSD dashboard and it has the latest firmware
[17:48] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: ok mate, all good and welcome to the ubuntu community
[17:48] <lotuspsychje> musicgeek: for more boost, install preload also after install
[17:49] <musicgeek> Thank you again, I will go ahead and install now

[18:13] <raksh93> hi i am trying to install gnome-calendar on ubutnu 15.10  using jhbuild and it says libsystemd-journal is missing
[18:13] <raksh93> does anyone know what package this corresponds to in 15.10?
[18:14] <ioria> !info libsystemd-journal0
[18:14] <ioria> !info libsystemd-journal0 trusty
[18:15] <xfceone> Auto Ethernet not working how to fix?
[18:16] <reisio> xfceone: using an ordinary ethernet connection?
[18:16] <xfceone> pppoe
[18:16] <xfceone> now
[18:16] <xfceone> but I tried to connect a wifi router
[18:17] <xfceone> auto ethernet not connecting
[18:18] <ioria> raksh93, maybe you need the -dev package
[18:18] <ioria> !info libsystemd-journal-dev
[18:19] <ioria> raksh93, nope, sorry
[18:19] <raksh93> ubottu i couldn't follow. what package am i supposed to install exactly?
[18:19] <raksh93> ioria tried that already doesnt work
[18:20] <ioria> raksh93, yep
[18:22] <honigkuchen> I have a fw script in /etc/init.d/firewall.sh and when I edit it and then do service firewall.sh restart it tells me I shall do systemctl daemon-reload but it only works with /etc/init.d/firewall.sh restart and not with service firewall.sh restart
[18:22] <honigkuchen> what am I doing wrong?
[18:22] <ioria> !info libsystemd-dev
[18:22] <ioria> raksh93, i think has been replaced by libsystemd-dev  , but not sure
[18:24] <raksh93> ioria i have that installed
[18:24] <raksh93> this is what i am getting
[18:24] <raksh93>  libsystemd-journal (libsystemd-journal.pc, required=201)
[18:25] <Lynoure> Is there an ETA for patch for CVE-2015-7547 for Trusty?
[18:25] <ioria> raksh93, gnome-calendar is in the repo, anyways
[18:25] <Pici> Lynoure: its still being worked on. No eta as of yet.
[18:26] <Lynoure> Pici: Thanks, I guess I'll hang on here till then.
[18:26] <honigkuchen> where elsewhere could I ask my question? I don't know how I google for it best!
[18:27] <Pici> Lynoure: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2015/CVE-2015-7547.html also has up-to-date information.
[18:27] <raksh93> ioria ah, yes. thanks
[18:27] <ioria> raksh93, no problem
[18:34] <SonikkuAmerica> Hello everyone. I'm kind of stuck here. My poor computer was subject to a power outage, and now the kernel is panicking on boot. What should I do?
[18:34] <SonikkuAmerica> (14.04.3, btw)
[18:34] <EriC^^> SonikkuAmerica: what message does it say?
[18:34] <SonikkuAmerica> Attempted to kill the idle task
[18:34] <k1l> SonikkuAmerica: try the older kernel?
[18:35] <Eightynine> Hi, I'm using Kubuntu 15.10 and it hangs during reboot or shutdown.
[18:35] <SonikkuAmerica> k1l, OK, I'll give it a go...
[18:35] <SonikkuAmerica> brb
[18:35] <honigkuchen> ok I found out that it is about systemd so I ask in #systemd
[18:38] <Lynoure> Pici: What's "DNE" on that page?  It stucks at nmbd. I disabled Plymouth because it was buggy and it's booting in text mode but when I reboot or shutdown it can show blank screen.
[18:41] <Pici> Lynoure: does not exist.  I'm not sure of the specifics though
[18:41] <SonikkuAmerica> k1l: Looks like everything's good now
[18:51] <Lynoure> Pici: ah, got it now. :)
[18:51] <satinder_> Hi there have any one can can help me ??
[18:52] <satinder_> I have problem and I want ask
[18:52] <Lynoure> satinder_: you just type it and ask.
[18:52] <streulma> I must disable KMS for Radeon X700. If I set nomodeset in grub I get black screen, with radeon.modeset=0 vga=771 screen is garbage. What can I do to disable KMS?
[18:53] <satinder_> How I can access my ubuntu machine at any where in the world without public ip
[18:53] <satinder_> is it possible or not ??
[18:53] <satinder_> please somebody help me
[18:54] <crayon> has a patch been rolled for cve-2015-7547?
[18:54] <k1l> crayon: use cve search on ubuntu.com/usn for details
[18:54] <compdoc> satinder_, you need a domain name
[18:54] <crayon> so annoying
[18:55] <richardjs> satinder_, you'll need a machine with a public IP at some point, whether it be a router forwarding to your machine, a server you tunnel to, or whatever
[18:55] <EriC^^> crayon: that doesn't exist
[18:55] <chudler> http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2015/CVE-2015-7547.html seems that it has not???
[18:55] <crayon> what do you mean EriC^^ ?
[18:56] <dreamon> I want to show all (later rm) all files that starts with "-".mp in filename → find /media/music -regex '^[-]*.mp3' -exec echo {}  \; → but this dont work .. why?
[18:56] <satinder_> richardjs : you mean without public ip I can't do it
[18:56] <k1l> chudler: crayon last info was its in testings not to break other stuff
[18:56] <crayon> ty k1l
[18:57] <crayon> howd you get that status?
[18:57] <compdoc> satinder_, what makes you think you dont have a public ip?
[18:57] <satinder_> ??
[18:57] <k1l> crayon: someone related to the security team told me.
[18:57] <crayon> tysm
[18:58] <satinder_> compdoc : yes I don't have
[18:58] <satinder_> I have a just device ip which is a local address
[18:58] <richardjs> satinder_ At least as far as I know. It might depend on your setup.
[18:59] <compdoc> satinder_, you are using a corporate network or something? You dont have your own isp connection?
[18:59] <satinder_> and that can not be access outside of local network
[18:59] <satinder_> compdoc : I have just a airtel internet broadband
[18:59] <satinder_> I have not any public ip
[19:00] <richardjs> satinder_ You're connecting through some sort of router, then, right?
[19:00] <satinder_> richardjs : yes I have a airtel modem or a router
[19:01] <richardjs> satinder_ OK. Under normal circumstances, your router then has a public IP. Past your router is the local network with the local addresses.
[19:02] <richardjs> satinder_ The normal thing to do is to set up your router to forward what ports you need access to from the public network to your local machine
[19:03] <satinder_> richardjs : i don't now how I can do that
[19:03] <richardjs> But your router should have a public IP address. Google "ip address" to see it.
[19:04] <satinder_> <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:04] <richardjs> satinder_ Well, unfortunately different routers have different ways of doing it. Try googling your router manufacturer + "port forwarding"
[19:04] <MonkeyDust> !port
[19:04] <richardjs> ^ ty
[19:04] <satinder_> richardjs  : that is my public ip
[19:05] <richardjs> (Oh, and you typically want to be a little protective of your public IP. It's somewhat sensitive information.)
[19:05] <richardjs> (If for nothing else that it points directly to your local network, although if your router is doing its job that should be protected.)
[19:06] <satinder_> richardjs : what I can do for access it publically
[19:06] <MonkeyDust> satinder_  do you know what NAT is?
[19:07] <richardjs> satinder_ see the instructions above related to port-forwarding (http://portforward.com)
[19:07] <satinder_> MonkeyDust : I don't know
[19:07] <satinder_> richardjs : with port forwording , I can access my machine anywhere
[19:09] <satinder_> please
[19:09] <richardjs> satinder_ Yeah, but there's a few complications. If you're on a consumer ISP plan, your public IP address might change occasionally (like if you restart your router). Also, some ISPs might even block standard SSH (although I've never encountered that).
[19:09] <MonkeyDust> satinder_  your pc has a public ip address and a local ip address ... NAT 'translates' the public to the local ip address
[19:11] <satinder_> MonkeyDust and richardjs : according to my knowledge if we buy public ip from vendor then we can access machine anywhere
[19:11] <satinder_> but i don't buy that public ip
[19:11] <satinder_> I just type on google what is my public ip
[19:11] <Eightynine> Please, help me
[19:11] <satinder_> and google show me
[19:11] <kjsgss06> satinder_ that is pretty common to buy the public IP so it doesn't change. You should still be able to access your public IP but the risk is that it will change
[19:11] <MonkeyDust> satinder_  true, it costs money, it's for enterprises etc
[19:12] <kamil> Hello, when I type two characters in the terminal, it automatically sends the command. Why does it happen?
[19:12] <satinder_> ok sir you mean which public ip show by google to me
[19:12] <satinder_> that is access able but that is not static
[19:12] <MonkeyDust> kamil  it's called autocomplete, saves you typing work
[19:13] <satinder_> that will be changed
[19:13] <satinder_> ??
[19:13] <satinder_> am i right ??
[19:13] <MonkeyDust> satinder_  your public ip address changes every 24 or 48h hours or so
[19:13] <kamil> MonkeyDust: how can I turn it off in KDE terminal?
[19:13] <kjsgss06> satinder_ yes it can be changed. Usually depends on the ISP, sometimes they don't change very often. But if you frequenetly disonnect or shut off the device it may change everytime
[19:14] <satinder_> MonkeyDust and kjsgss06 : if I buy it then ??
[19:14] <MonkeyDust> kamil  never tried to truen it off and i don't use kde
[19:14] <kjsgss06> satinder_ if you buy it it'll remain permanent. That's the service you're paying for among other things
[19:14] <MonkeyDust> satinder_  contact your ISP if you want to buy ab ip address
[19:15] <MonkeyDust> an*
[19:15] <satinder_> ok
[19:15] <kamil> MonkeyDust: ok then, thanks for showing me what's the issue though, now I just need to find how to switch it off :)
[19:15] <satinder_> MonkeyDust and kjsgss06 : but before buying it i want to do a experiment first
[19:15] <kjsgss06> satinder_ the company I work for charges a one time fee of 500USD for a static IP addres
[19:16] <satinder_> access my machine remotely
[19:16] <satinder_> with my current dynamic public ip
[19:16] <satinder_> so please you guys help me
[19:17] <kjsgss06> satinder_ that's largerly going to depend on your equipment or router. It can often be found under PAT (port address translation) or NAT (network address translation)
[19:17] <satinder_> ok
[19:17] <kjsgss06> satinder_ I'd google the manufacturer of your router to see what the instructions are
[19:17] <satinder_> any tutorial
[19:18] <MonkeyDust> satinder_  yes, on portforwarding;com
[19:18] <MonkeyDust> .com
[19:18] <satinder_> ok
[19:18] <satinder_> thanks sir :)
[19:19] <BarnacleBob> is there an update for CVE-2015-7547 in 14.04 yet?
[19:21] <kamil> Ok so I tried using Konsole, Eterm and Uxterm and every emulator sends a command after typing two characters, making me unable to use VPCS...
[19:22] <sweeper_> hi. my (l)ubuntu 14.04 has been swapping for the last 20 minutes and does not react to mouse / keyboard input. the hard disk is running. what can i do?
[19:22] <crayon> no
[19:23] <MonkeyDust> sweeper_ hard reboot (button) and turn off swap
[19:24] <sweeper_> is there a chance of data corruption if i just turn it off now?
[19:24] <reisio> BarnacleBob: can always build it yourself
[19:24] <reisio> BarnacleBob: which one must do from time to time anyway
[19:24] <baizon> BarnacleBob: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2015/CVE-2015-7547.html
[19:24] <reisio> sweeper_: what makes you think it's swapping?
[19:24] <BarnacleBob> baizon, ah thanks for that
[19:25] <BarnacleBob> reisio, heh, i think i can wait before i update 300 instances
[19:25] <sweeper_> reisio the ram was quite full and i was closing some tabs before. what else could make it so unresponsive with HD activity?
[19:26] <reisio> full ram you say? :D
[19:26] <grubig> hello
[19:26] <reisio> ho grub
[19:26] <reisio> hi, even
[19:27] <mahesh> there is any command to know about running processes and to know its pid
[19:28] <reisio> pgrep, ps
[19:28] <bekks> mahesh: Oh, there are, quite a few.
[19:28] <reisio> ^
[19:28] <grubig> i want to add i915.preliminary_hw_supprt=1 to grub. i think it should come where the UUIDs are listed. /etc/default/grub does not contain such info. Must I add it to /boot/grub/grub.cfg to add that line permanently?
[19:28] <MonkeyDust> mahesh  ps -e
[19:29] <sweeper_> i know the behavior from my other older ubuntu install, but there the swapping finishes after a few minutes at most, reisio
[19:29] <mahesh> monkeydust i used echo $$ ..but iam not able to find which pid that was
[19:29] <mahesh> bekks yes please tell me
[19:29] <reisio> grubig: you can always add it to grub.cfg for a test, and once you're sure which line, figure out how to add it more elegantly
[19:29] <reisio> sweeper_: how much ram you got?
[19:29] <reisio> sweeper_: how much swap?
[19:30] <bekks> mahesh: reisio just told you.
[19:30] <kamil> Any tips about my issue? It's very urgent, I need to get VPCS working in like under half an hour and I'm stuck with that dumb bug
[19:30] <grubig> reisio: why do i need "elegance" ?
[19:30] <sweeper_> reisio: on this machine 3gb ram, 1,5gb swap
[19:30] <mahesh> bekks it is showing command not found
[19:31] <bekks> mahesh: When typing what?
[19:31] <mahesh> bekks pgrep
[19:31] <reisio> grubig: dunno, why?
[19:31] <bekks> mahesh: then try "ps"
[19:31] <mahesh> ps is working fine
[19:31] <reisio> grubig: what you need is a solution to Ubuntu automatically updating grub.cfg
[19:31] <MonkeyDust> mahesh  what are you trying to do or find out
[19:32] <reisio> to which there is, at least: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Custom_Menu_Entries
[19:32] <grubig> reisio, so if i added it to grub.cfg it wont be permanent?
[19:32] <krobzaur> hello all! Does anyone know if there is a bug fix for the inability to resize fat32 filesystems in gnu parted/gparted for 14.04?
