[00:37] <smellsLikeGoatSp> hello everyone! every time I access my external hd, which is encrypted, I run out of disk space and I cannot update the system. the error says to use sudo apt-get clean but that is not helping much
[00:38] <smellsLikeGoatSp> me1@me2:/boot$ ls abi-3.19.0-43-generic         memtest86+.bin abi-3.19.0-47-generic         memtest86+.elf abi-3.19.0-49-generic         memtest86+_multiboot.bin abi-3.19.0-51-generic         System.map-3.19.0-43-generic config-3.19.0-43-generic      System.map-3.19.0-47-generic config-3.19.0-47-generic      System.map-3.19.0-49-generic config-3.19.0-49-generic      System.map-3.19.0-51-generic config-3.19.0-51-generic
[00:38] <smellsLikeGoatSp> do I need to remove old releases?
[00:39] <AciD`> smellsLikeGoatSp -> do you have another disk with some free space, like /home?
[00:39] <AciD`> if so
[00:39] <AciD`> mkdir -p /home/user/archives
[00:40] <AciD`> then mv * /var/cache/apt/archives !$
[00:40] <AciD`> then mount --bind /var/cache/apt/archives /home/user/archives
[00:40] <nacc> why would accessing an external hard drive cause you to run out of space? what does access mean in this case?
[00:40] <AciD`> then try to update
[00:41] <AciD`> nacc -> I think he meant that he has installed an OS on this external drive
[00:41] <AciD`> do you chroot to it smellsLikeGoatSp?
[00:41] <nacc> AciD`: oh i see
[00:42] <AciD`> whoops, do mv /var/cache/apt/archives/* /home/user/archives instead of what I wrote
[00:43] <smellsLikeGoatSp> uhm I have switched from and hdd to a sdd and I am now using the old hdd as an external hard drive. I need to decrypt it every time but that is fine! the problem is that for some reason it will saturate my /boot I believe
[00:44] <nacc> smellsLikeGoatSp: that still doesn't make sense to me; what do you mean by "using as an external hard drive"? is your /boot on this external hard driver?
[00:44] <nacc> smellsLikeGoatSp: please be specific, when you say "use" do you mean you are mounting it somewhere? where?
[00:45] <rchen> probably post /etc/fstab
[00:46] <smellsLikeGoatSp> nacc: I mount it in a directory in home.  /boot is on my machine
[00:47] <smellsLikeGoatSp> nacc: I mean that the hard drive that once was running on my laptop can be used as an external storage and it also retains all of the file I had and need
[00:47] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: what is the exact errors? can you show them in a pastebin?
[00:49] <smellsLikeGoatSp> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15398733/
[00:51] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: ok, the chrome error is another issue but thats solvable

[00:52] <smellsLikeGoatSp> k1l:http://paste.ubuntu.com/15398756/
[00:53] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: your /boot partition /dev/sda2 is 88% full. making it 237MB large is not large enough
[00:54] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: for the chrome repo error run this:
[00:54] <smellsLikeGoatSp> k1l: OK, but see this problem occurred before and it was solved using sudo apt-get clean. also, it occurred after I mounted the sata hdd ( I am connecting it via USB) and I thought the problem was related
[00:54] <k1l> !chrome-repo | smellsLikeGoatSp
[00:54] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: that got nothing to do with the other disk
[00:56] <smellsLikeGoatSp> k1l: alright then. it did solve the problem at the time though
[00:56] <smellsLikeGoatSp> ubottu: that fixed it! thanks
[00:57] <Pici> !yay
[01:01] <smellsLikeGoatSp> k1l: any chance I could remove former installations?
[01:01] <Bashing-om> smellsLikeGoatSp: You mean old kernels ?
[01:02] <smellsLikeGoatSp> Bashing-om: yup. http://paste.ubuntu.com/15398818/
[01:02] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: please pastebin a "ls -al /boot" and "dpkg -l | grep linux-image"
[01:03] <smellsLikeGoatSp> k1l: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15398830/
[01:03] <Bashing-om> smellsLikeGoatSp: Try ' sudo apt-get autoremove ' . If the package manager is in a consistent state, will also remove old kernels .
[01:04] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: you can remove old kernels.
[01:04] <smellsLikeGoatSp> Bashing-om: autoremove did not work
[01:04] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: remove the linux-image-3.19...... packages from that not used kernels
[01:05] <Bashing-om> smellsLikeGoatSp: Look'n  too.
[01:05] <k1l> linux-image-3.19.0-43-generic and linux-image-3.19.0-47-generic can go at least
[01:05] <smellsLikeGoatSp> k1l: do I just go rm on them?
[01:05] <k1l> smellsLikeGoatSp: no. use apt remove
[01:05] <smellsLikeGoatSp> right
[01:08] <smellsLikeGoatSp> k1l: ok running it now

[01:50] <daniel_> hi
[01:50] <daniel_> anyone here
[01:50] <daniel_> ;9
[01:50] <k1l> daniel_: yes. best is to just ask the support question :)
[01:50] <k1l> or just leave. :/
[01:51] <noobstrap> on3pk: you need to run the vnc program with the "local only" option. Then you do an ssh tunnel to that port

[02:32] <Neytiri> hi i am having a issue zipping files wiht the zip command, i have folders with 2 files in each folder, i want to zip the contents of the folders into a zip archive with the folder name, i also need the zip archive to be windoes compitable
[02:36] <skitoxe> Neytiri:
[02:36] <skitoxe> zip -r <zipname> <folder1> <folder2>
[02:37] <Neytiri> i want the contnts of folder, not the whole folder
[02:37] <Neytiri> like when i open the archive i just want to see the contesnts of the folder
[02:38] <skitoxe> then just type out the paths to the file
[02:38] <skitoxe> zip /home/user/file1 /home/user/folder2/file2
[02:38] <Neytiri> thats it?
[02:39] <Neytiri> let me try it
[02:39] <skitoxe> yes
[02:40] <reisio> every time you use ZIP, raptor gebus kills a kitten
[02:40] <reisio> tar -cf foo.tar bar
[02:40] <Neytiri> i dont have a choice with the program that is accessing the zip files
[02:41] <skitoxe> Neytiri: my bad u will still get the folders
[02:41] <skitoxe> move the files to the same folder temporarily is my best guess
[02:41] <skitoxe> youÄ
[02:41] <skitoxe> you*
[02:42] <Neytiri> i got it to work

[03:16] <picarda> Hi, anyone was able to use the caldav of iCloud?
[03:16] <skitoxe> picarda: what are you trying to do ?
[03:19] <picarda> Trying to put my icloud calendar to my thunderbird...
[03:20] <georgeowell> picarda, not sure about icloud but you'll need the Lightning extension in Thunderbird to do caldav.
[03:20] <skitoxe> picarda: im guessing it's possible. But i would highlt recommend porting your calendar to gmail that uses standardized format.
[03:21] <bq> skitoxe: yeah but i want to keep the session across restart
[03:21] <bq> skitoxe: is there a way to do this?
[03:22] <skitoxe> i don't use caldav. so i don't know. sorry
[03:23] <bq> skitoxe: sometimes i have to reboot to solve the issue. then my session is lost. that is annoying
[03:23] <tehgeek> Hi folks.  I'm trying to run a second X session on TTY 8.  I would simply like it to be identical to the one Ubuntu starts by default, with logging in and out via LightDM.  I've tried all kinds of invocations of X, startx, and lightdm and I can't seem to get it to happen.  Can anyone help me?  Thx!
[03:23] <picarda> it's other way to have the calendar of iCloud in Thunderbird?
[03:25] <promet> I'm looking for a good app that simplifies rsync. I've been looking into some apps and "Sync" https://www.getsync.com/ seems to be a leader (also free for non-commercial use). Does anyone have any good reasons I shouldn't join the "cult of Sync"?
[03:25] <reisio> simpliefies 'rsync foo bar'? Good luck with that
[03:26] <reisio> simplifiesssszzz*
[03:27] <promet> reisio, no reason to reinvent the wheel. I could spend a couple of lost weekends writing scripts, or I could take advantage of a tool that some, apparently, very clever people have created.
[03:27] <promet> I'm not sure what's so unpalatable about that.
[03:27] <reisio> palatability hasn't to do with it
[03:28] <reisio> you can't do something simpler than executable source destination
[03:28] <reisio> it's quite impossible
[03:28] <promet> Well, thank you for your opinion.

[03:43] <chinesesausage> hi
[03:43] <chinesesausage> how are you?
[03:43] <virtuosoj> very good. yourself?
[03:43] <chinesesausage> I'm fine myself!
[03:44] <virtuosoj> does anyone know a good virtual disc program for Ubuntu 15.10?
[03:44] <virtuosoj> I need to mount a .iso into /media/virtual, then install it into virtual C:/Program Files with WINE
[03:45] <virtuosoj> Furius ISO Mount and Gmount-iso are not working :(
[03:46] <chinesesausage> I do not have Ubuntu 15.10. I only use the built in disk image mounter in Peach OSI
[03:47] <virtuosoj> Found one! It's called "CDemu" and there's a ppa for 15.10
[03:47] <virtuosoj> I will try it now and report how it goes
[03:47] <chinesesausage> it is built on Ubuntu 14.10 though
[03:47] <virtuosoj> chinesesausage, it is built into 15.10 as well, however with the built in tool I cannot mount to a specific drive
[03:47] <virtuosoj> which won't work for me because for this program's install, it requires multiple CDs (Diablo 2: LOD)
[03:48] <chinesesausage> ok. Good to know
[03:48] <chinesesausage> do you use several Desktop Environments in Ubuntu 15.10?
[03:48] <virtuosoj> not currently, but I've tried them all
[03:49] <virtuosoj> when I have Fedora installs, I usually keep GNOME3 but also install MATE or XFCE alongside it
[03:49] <virtuosoj> right now I'm rolling with Ubuntu because the Unity DE is so convenient. I'm a hopper TBH though
[03:49] <Trioxin> to get the latest amd graphics driver on 15.10 should I add: ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa ? I saw a warning when adding the repo that it's compatible with wily 15.04
[03:50] <Trioxin> I'm having some trouble with the open source driver kubuntu installed and I'd like to try the proprietary driver
[03:50] <chinesesausage> I only hop between Peach OSI and Manjaro nowadays
[03:50] <virtuosoj> Peach OSI?
[03:50] <virtuosoj> what is that
[03:51] <chinesesausage> it's an Ubuntu (Xubuntu) based distro. Been around for some time
[03:51] <bray90820> tgm4883: Instead of making a folder couldn't I just use this code
[03:51] <bray90820> http://pastebin.com/raw/SM7fjrn8
[03:52] <chinesesausage> it is quite good
[03:52] <chinesesausage> specially the BareBones Edition
[03:54] <virtuosoj> hm
[03:55] <pctek> hi i was wondering if anyone may know of a tutorial i can use to install Aion because i have googled it with little help provided, i am using ubuntu 15.10 playonlinux 4.2.10 and tried using wine version 1.7.22 ......1.7.47 and 1.9.1 along with this guide but i dont really understand it https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=30073&iTestingId=92263
[03:57] <chinesesausage> have you already submitted it to the Wine authors?
[03:59] <pctek> no i was trying to figure out how to install it using wine 1.9.1 properly but didnt really understand how to on the page provided
[04:01] <chinesesausage> well, most times Playonlinux installs automatically the wine version known to work with the selected app
[04:01] <chinesesausage> it seems Aion is still being tested
[04:02] <virtuosoj> ok got it to work: here was my method
[04:02] <chinesesausage> yesterday I was having issues installing Reason 5 with Playonlinux. It seems some apps still need a lot of work in wine
[04:03] <virtuosoj> program: Furius ISO Mount. I mounted all 4 ISOs and using winecfg, set all of them as a separate drive
[04:04] <virtuosoj> I believe I could have also done this using built in image mounter. Will do that next time around probably
[04:04] <chinesesausage> why did the default iso mounter not work?
[04:05] <virtuosoj> at first I wanted to load the .iso into the directory /media/virtual
[04:06] <virtuosoj> but no program in the repositories could do that, and the CDemu program I downloaded won't even boot
[04:06] <virtuosoj> therefore my solution was to mount all of them with Furius iso, which created folders in my home directory based on the iso name
[04:06] <virtuosoj> then I set each one of those isos to a separate drive in winecfg
[04:07] <chinesesausage> oh, you just wanted to control where the iso's mount?
[04:08] <chinesesausage> were you out of disk space?
[04:09] <virtuosoj> they are virtual isos for the windows program Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction. Needed to install in WINE
[04:10] <virtuosoj> yes I wanted to mount each one to the same drive and swap them, but mounting all at once was quite convenient
[04:11] <chinesesausage> ok
[04:11] <Trioxin> would it be best to go with the fglrx-updates package or the installer from the amd site in terms of stability?
[04:11] <chinesesausage> did Diablo 2 worked thru WIne?
[04:12] <venkatesh> hi
[04:12] <venkatesh> good morning
[04:12] <Trioxin> i see 45 open bugs for the ubuntu package
[04:12] <chinesesausage> gm venkatesh
[04:13] <venkatesh> im new here
[04:13] <chinesesausage> welcome venkatesh!
[04:13] <venkatesh> thanks
[04:13] <venkatesh> what can we get here
[04:14] <chinesesausage> here you can get answers to questions regarding Linux Ubuntu
[04:14] <venkatesh> ohh i c . im in linux mint
[04:15] <systadmni>
[04:16] <venkatesh> thnx chineslang...
[04:16] <Trioxin> you'd think you can get answers
[04:16] <venkatesh> kk waiting for mint chat
[04:16] <chinesesausage> linux mint is an Ubuntu derivative, though you will probably get better answers in the #linuxmint-help channel
[04:18] <virtuosoj> chinesesausage: yes I managed to update Diablo 2 to latest version and run it successfully!
[04:18] <virtuosoj> however resolution is bugged for now, im installing D2SE
[04:18] <chinesesausage> I mostly play games thru Steam
[04:19] <chinesesausage> though, sadly, have to switch to Win from time to time for win only based games :(
[04:23] <zrneely> Does anyone know how to disable notifications for charger plugged in/unplugged on a laptop? This is 15.04
[04:26] <Trioxin> this doesn't make any sense. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD?action=show&redirect=BinaryDriverHowto%2FATI says to backup your xorg.conf and then generate a new one. There is no xorg.conf anymore
[04:35] <mirza> d
[04:41] <Trioxin> well, ppa drivers are downloading. I'll either quit and rejoin or be gona for quite some time

[05:47] <davido> most productive is to ask the question that's on your mind. if someone can answer it, and happens to notice it, youll probably get an answer
[05:49] <duan> ok. thank u @davido! I was new, please take care of
[05:51] <V7> Hey all
[05:52] <davido> yes V7

[05:54] <V7> I know it's quiet good !
[05:55] <V7> But ... your opinion ?
[05:55] <freakyy> ok thanks i have another question. im in a screen and everytime i paste somethign it puts ~0 ~1 to front and back of pasted line. is there any way i can stop that cuz if i edit somethign it even cancels edit mode
[05:55] <davido> V7 it's hard to answer that without more information, and then it becomes more on-topic for a programming forum or channel.
[05:56] <V7> freakyy: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/196098/copy-paste-in-xfce4-terminal-adds-0-and-1
[05:56] <davido> wow, nice answer V7.
[05:56] <freakyy> V7:  thanks
[05:57] <V7> davido: Yeah I know .. but maybe here are some devs who are programmed a lot of time so ... I wanted to know their opinion :)
[05:57] <V7> freakyy: yw :D
[05:57] <nuccun> Anybody feel like helping a poor noob out with fixing some issues with dual booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu 14.04?
[05:58] <V7> nuccun: Do you have some ?
[05:58] <nuccun> That I do
[05:59] <nuccun> I get stuck in a "Attempting Automatic Repair" loop when trying to boot into Windows 10 from GRUB
[05:59] <V7> nuccun: What was before ?
[05:59] <V7> nuccun: Maybe this is smth. with Windows ...
[05:59] <nuccun> It very well could be
[06:00] <V7> nuccun: Have you tried fix Windows and boot it up ?
[06:00] <davido> i stopped dual-booting a couple years ago. Now I just run Windows in a VM if I need it.
[06:00] <V7> davido: +
[06:01] <nuccun> What do you mean by "fix windows"?
[06:01] <V7> nuccun: Boot into it
[06:01] <davido> there is no fixing it. ;)
[06:01] <duan> win10 can not boot?
[06:01] <nuccun> I can't, that's the issue I'm having.  It says "Attempting Automatic Repair", goes to a "Diagnosing Your PC", then reboots to GRUB
[06:02] <V7> nuccun: I think that this's not a GRUB fault or smth. of Dual Booting ...
[06:02] <V7> nuccun: Smth. wrong with your Windows ..
[06:02] <duan> F8  may  boot into safe mode
[06:03] <V7> nuccun: Also .. you could mount a partition with ... wrong flags or smth. else, and didn't unmount which causes problem.
[06:03] <davido> a few years ago i had one that wouldn't boot to safe mode, but it would boot to regular windows. it was a little inconvenient for those times when you really need the flexibility of bare-bones.
[06:04] <V7> nuccun: Try to boot into Linux then mount/remount hards of Windows and then reboot into it
[06:04] <V7> nuccun: Also ... There's a ton of possible reasons ...
[06:04] <nuccun> Yea I know
[06:05] <V7> tons *
[06:05] <nuccun> Was hoping it was one of those "Oh, yea, everyone has that problem, just do this..." kind of issues
[06:06] <nuccun> So trying to mount the Windows8_OS partition gives me an error
[06:06] <V7> nuccun: I hadn't xD ... cuz I don't like Windows and everything which it's contains ... except Games/Adobe/Office
[06:06] <V7> nuccun: Here it is ..
[06:07] <V7> Post an error by Pastebin
[06:07] <nuccun> Yea, working on it
[06:10] <nuccun> So here's what I'm getting
[06:10] <nuccun> http://pastebin.com/26Ej6AZ9
[06:10] <V7> nuccun:  No such file or directory O.O
[06:10] <nuccun> worries me
[06:11] <V7> Wow ...
[06:11] <ouroumov> That is so weird
[06:12] <V7> nuccun: idk ... also you could send us result of "sudo lshw -C disk"
[06:12] <ouroumov> nuccun, what does lsblk says?
[06:13] <V7> lsblk would be better
[06:16] <nuccun> http://pastebin.com/F0aw2njr
[06:16] <nuccun> that's what I get from lsblk
[06:16] <nuccun> sda5 would be the Windows 10
[06:17] <V7> Hmm
[06:18] <V7> nuccun: That's strange ..
[06:19] <nuccun> just to interject here, I should share I ran "sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda5" originally when I noticed I was unable to access the Windows 10 partition from Ubuntu.  This made it accessible, but then when I restarted to go back to Windows 10 is when I started running into this issue
[06:19] <V7> You have, but mount saying that not
[06:20] <V7> nuccun: Gotcha ! I said you should tell us what you did before xD
[06:20] <nuccun> Yea, kind of forgot I had ran that previously
[06:22] <akhilesh> hi
[06:22] <V7> akhilesh: Hey m8 :)
[06:22] <V7> nuccun: sudo fdisk -l
[06:22] <akhilesh> Installed ubuntu 16.04(daily). It's great :)
[06:23] <V7> nuccun: I'm trying to get all info which I can :)
[06:23] <V7> akhilesh: Wow, I'm on 14.04 :D
[06:23] <V7> oops
[06:23] <V7> 15
[06:23] <akhilesh> I have a question though
[06:23] <akhilesh> I have manjaro on another hard disk, and on it, I have installed many steam games.
[06:23] <akhilesh> Is it possible to install steam on this ubuntu partition and use the games on the manjaro partition?
[06:24] <V7> akhilesh: Some of them
[06:24] <akhilesh> hmm
[06:24] <V7> akhilesh: Look .. Steam install games which possible to launch under Linux...
[06:25] <V7> akhilesh: I think that ... 99% of them you won't start through Steam
[06:25] <akhilesh> But i've installed them on manjaro(linux) on the other partition
[06:25] <nuccun> V7:  Understood, I appreciate the help  http://pastebin.com/pta3U228
[06:26] <V7> akhilesh: If u'd look at Store, u'd find that there's smth. like SteamOS/Linux and this means that Games which you're installing on Windows you'll use only on it
[06:26] <V7> akhilesh: ooh
[06:26] <V7> akhilesh: I they are from Linux then all should work
[06:26] <akhilesh> ok, thanks
[06:27] <V7> Just copy all data from SteamPath/steamapps/common/* to new one
[06:27] <V7> akhilesh: I'll llok
[06:27] <akhilesh> oki
[06:27] <V7> look *
[06:27] <akhilesh> steam is in the default ubuntu repos?
[06:28] <V7> nuccun: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[06:28] <V7> akhilesh: +, but I'd recomment download installer from offcial site
[06:29] <akhilesh> V7: why so?
[06:29] <akhilesh> isn't package manager supposed to be better?
[06:29] <nuccun> V7:  That gives me the same thing as the first part of the last pastebin
[06:29] <V7> nuccun: hmm
[06:30] <V7> nuccun: Wait ... you're on sdb now ? You linux dist installe on sdb ?
[06:30] <V7> installed  *
[06:31] <nuccun> V7: Possibly?  I'm not sure, how can I tell?
[06:33] <nuccun> V7: OH!  No
[06:33] <V7> GParted or "df"
[06:33] <nuccun> That is my USB drive
[06:33] <nuccun> sorry
[06:33] <V7> Which one ?
[06:33] <nuccun> The /dev/sdb
[06:34] <V7> Yeah .. this;s a start point ...
[06:35] <nuccun> Yea, just ejected it and only /dev/sda is showing up now when I dos fdisk
[06:35] <nuccun> do*
[06:36] <V7> nuccun: sudo mkdir /media/justin/test && sudo mount /dev/sda5 /media/justin/test
[06:38] <nuccun> Yea, that didn't work
[06:38] <nuccun> saying /dev/sda5 No such file or directory
[06:38] <nuccun> like it does when I try to mount the Windows8_OS drive
[06:38] <birbl> Hello, I've uninstalled the AMD drivers via the additional drivers menu. Now whenever I boot the OS I get an black screen after the splash screen
[06:38] <V7> Same
[06:39] <birbl> xubuntu 15.10
[06:40] <V7> nuccun: same operation with ntfsfix doesn't help ?
[06:41] <V7> birbl: Wow .. bad one :)
[06:41] <birbl> v7: would it work if I delete the xorg.conf file via a live CD?
[06:42] <nuccun> V7: Nope.  However, same "no such file or directory" for everything, also it says "Volume is corrupt.  You should run chkdsk."
[06:42] <nuccun> which makes me uneasy
[06:43] <nuccun> is there a Ubuntu equivalent to chkdsk?
[06:44] <lotuspsychje> nuccun: fdisk or testdisk maybe
[06:45] <birbl> yup that worked ;)
[06:47] <V7> nuccun: I think that you ... changed partition ..
[06:47] <V7> Idk how you did this ... but ... it is ...
[06:47] <V7> Smth corrupted ...
[06:47] <V7> See ...
[06:47] <V7> You executed ntfsfix on GPT disk
[06:49] <V7> nuccun: Is here any possibl wway to run: sudo fdisk /dev/sda ?
[06:49] <V7> When it executed then hit on "p" then Enter
[06:50] <robotdevil1> i know this isnt very ubuntu, but it is in a way for me, does minecraft only need java in  ubuntu/linux?
[06:50] <robotdevil1> or windows too?
[06:50] <Myrtti> windows too.
[06:50] <nuccun> hmm, looks like I screwed the pooch on this one
[06:50] <V7> robotdevil1: http://pastebin.com/yzyMrg0L
[06:51] <V7> nuccun: ? :D
[06:51] <nuccun> Going to try fdisk
[06:52] <robotdevil1> V7:  thanks for the repo, but I am trying to decide which side of my dual boot to install to
[06:52] <V7> robotdevil1: Em ... you're choosing waht to install for a minecraft ?
[06:53] <robotdevil1> yep
[06:53] <V7> I'm dead
[06:53] <robotdevil1> which os to install minecraft on
[06:53] <nuccun> V7: So it's telling me when I go to use fdisk  "WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'!  The util fdisk doesn't support GPT.  Use GNU Parted."
[06:53] <V7> You killed me twice
[06:54] <V7> nuccun: hmm
[06:54] <robotdevil1> I have read that minecraft doesnt need java anymore but this MAY omly be for windows
[06:54] <V7> nuccun: The warning is not a problem.
[06:54] <robotdevil1> well come prepackage with java
[06:55] <V7> robotdevil1: It may contain java reps inside minecraft dir, so ... this's not only for Windows
[06:56] <V7> nuccun: It's only warning you that the fdisk tool doesn't work on disks using GPT for partitions. It only works on disks using the older MBR (DOS style) partitions .
[06:56] <V7> nuccun: What gives "sudo parted /dev/sda"
[06:58] <V7> robotdevil1: Use this one: Cossacks: Back to war
[06:58] <robotdevil1> V7: so if that is true how do I install it in ubuntu? This is the problem Im having
[06:59] <nuccun> V7:  http://pastebin.com/fq8B3qC0
[07:00] <robotdevil1> V7: every command is some way uses java
[07:00] <nuccun> It confuses me how it knows the partition is there, but can't seem to do anything with it
[07:02] <V7> nuccun: cat /boot/con* | grep EFI
[07:03] <V7> nuccun: Yeah ... we're trying to do smth. with xD
[07:04] <V7> robotdevil1: You should know where is java in your minecraft folder ... then "./java -jar minecraft.jar"
[07:05] <nuccun> http://pastebin.com/mEckWuaA
[07:08] <nuccun> V7:  http://pastebin.com/mEckWuaA
[07:11] <V7> nuccun: I'm try to find smth to help you
[07:11] <V7> trying *
[07:11] <nuccun> V7:  I appreciate the help man
[07:17] <V7> nuccun: sudo gpt -r -vv show /dev/sda1
[07:18] <V7> nuccun: Also you can try sudo gpt recover /dev/disk1
[07:18] <nuccun> V7: gpt command not found
[07:19] <V7> sudo apt-get intsall gpt
[07:19] <V7> nuccun: Wait ... I'll reconnect now
[07:19] <PrettyBoy2000> sudo apt-get install update && apt-get install update naruto
[07:20] <Sourcey> Hello. I messed around with usergroups yesterday and managed to loose my root user. It seems to be listed under "users" and if I do sudo on my other account I'm getting sudo previliges. How to restore the root user?
[07:21] <V7> So ... result ?
[07:22] <nuccun> V7:  About to just start back at square one....running apt-get gives me "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[07:22] <V7> So then enter "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[07:22] <V7> nuccun: You should be more careful with your OS :DDD
[07:23] <nuccun> V7:  I beginning to think me an Linux don't belong together, I run into these kinds of issues everytime I decide to play around with it again haha
[07:24] <V7> nuccun: Linux is like book of recipes ... you just need to imagine what do you want then you can do it
[07:25] <V7> Also ... Linux like women is very delicate, but simultaneously
[07:25] <nuccun> haha
[07:25] <V7> is very safe and strong !
[07:26] <V7> So
[07:26] <V7> Did you install gpt :D ?
[07:26] <nuccun> Ok, so, I installed gpt, but -r is not a recognized option
[07:26] <V7> Hmm
[07:26] <nuccun> also, it appears to be in another language
[07:26] <nuccun> besides english
[07:26] <V7> Then remove it :D
[07:26] <V7> I'm about -r :D
[07:27] <Mafuihij> i create a ubuntu file server where i can change the permissions from windows server active directory?
[07:27] <Mafuihij> can i create a ubuntu file server where i can change the permissions from windows server active directory?
[07:28] <V7> Mafuihij: If you're about Windows files then they doesn't support any permision changes
[07:28] <V7> permission *
[07:28] <V7> If you're working with chmod
[07:30] <nuccun> so what is "gpt" package I'm trying to install?
[07:30] <nuccun> because apt-get gpt gets me what I had, but that's not right
[07:30] <V7> nuccun: default one
[07:31] <V7> Hmm
[07:31] <V7> what returns "sudo gpt" ?
[07:31] <nuccun> sudo: gpt: command not found
[07:32] <V7> o.o
[07:32] <V7> You installed it ?
[07:33] <Mafuihij> v7: ok, if i auth the file server in AD can i use the AD users permission for administrate the ubuntu files?
[07:33] <nuccun> When I run "sudo apt-get install gpt" it installs something called "gpt" but that doesn't have a -r option when running
[07:33] <nuccun> and everything appears to be in Portuguese maybe?
[07:35] <V7> nuccun: ahah
[07:39] <nuccun> V7:  Ok, found something interesting...
[07:39] <nuccun> http://pastebin.com/CTAgN7aZ

[08:08] <linocisco> hi all, I dont know how to install Canon MF 8580 CDW network printer on ubuntu 14.04 64 bit
[08:08] <linocisco> can anyone point me asap i need to print urgently?
[08:08] <V7> nuccun: So ... then tomorrow ?
[08:08] <V7> nuccun: You should know that smth. wrong with your partitions ...
[08:09] <V7> Espesially with sda5
[08:09] <nuccun> V7:  Yea, I'm thinking about just running the recovery tool on my laptop here
[08:09] <nuccun> and starting with a clean slate
[08:10] <nuccun> obviously I've screwed something up with the Windows partition, as well as something on the Ubunutu side, because I can't even re-install firefox right now
[08:11] <V7> nuccun: sudo apt-get --purge remove firefox && sudo apt-get install firefox doesn't work >
[08:11] <nuccun> V7: I uninstalled through the package manager
[08:11] <nuccun> like the gui
[08:14] <nuccun> V7:  Running it in terminal gives me errors as well
[08:14] <nuccun> like I said, think I'm jsut going to start fresh
[08:14] <nuccun> I really appreciate all your help though
[08:16] <V7> yw !
[08:16] <V7> nuccun: I don't want you reinstall all ... but .. I think this would be more valuable way if you don't want to save data storied on you harddrives
[08:17] <V7> nuccun: The best simple way to install boths OS: Install windows on 1 partition ...
[08:17] <V7> Next install ubuntu to another partition with grub
[08:17] <V7> Always works
[08:18] <nuccun> V7:  Yea, same here, but I got all of the important files i need on a flash drive before I attempted this, so it won't be so bad.
[08:18] <nuccun> V7:  I'll keep that in mind
[08:18] <V7> nuccun: Saving all to flash is quiet smart !
[08:18] <V7> Nice job !
[08:19] <Blakes5> Hey all, not new to linux here but have always used linux in a utilitarian roll in a windows environment. Now I'm migrating to linux entirely. All of my experience until now has been file sharing from my media server using samba. I'm looking at finding the linux way of server client sharing as some programs in linux don't appear to allow directly opening files from a samba share in linux as they did in windows. Like I can't \\server\
[08:19] <Blakes5> dir\file or smb://server/dir/file. So I'm wondering if there isn't a better way. Would the prefer method in Linux being setting up NFS, which I've never used, to share between server/client?
[08:19] <nuccun> Oh Yea, been down this path before haha  I made sure to backup all the stuff I needed
[08:20] <linocisco> hi all, I dont know how to install Canon MF 8580 CDW network printer on ubuntu 14.04 64 bit
[08:20] <nuccun> V7:  Once again, thanks for all the help, have a good night. :)
[08:20] <tush> after changing samba password unable to access samba shared folder... if i restart windows machine it works..
[08:21] <Blakes5> Tush did you also change the password for the user on the linux machine?
[08:21] <V7> nuccun: Thanks man ! Be healthy ! You'll recover all ! Be sure :)
[08:21] <V7> Blakes5: You have option in Nautilus
[08:21] <V7> Connect to server
[08:21] <V7> There you can type smb://ip/
[08:21] <hateball> Blakes5: NFS is quite simple, certainly if you use only linux systems. There is also the option of sshfs
[08:21] <linocisco> hi all, I dont know how to install Canon MF 8580 CDW network printer on ubuntu 14.04 64 bit
[08:21] <hateball> !nfs | Blakes5
[08:22] <V7> linocisco: Hey man .. I'd help, but I didn't work with it :(
[08:22] <Myrtti> Blakes5: it's more about how you mount that Samba share. if you do it from the commandline (either with a command or set it to mount in fstab) it'd show in all the software whether they understand nautilus/gnome mounts, or not
[08:22] <V7> linocisco: Someone should help
[08:23] <Myrtti> Blakes5: I'd do research on why the applications don't open the files first, though
[08:24] <Myrtti> Blakes5: just to make sure it won't occur with nfs or even samba mounted differently
[08:25] <Blakes5> V7 yes, but it doesn't mount the share in a way that some programs can utilize without copying the file to the client. Like VLC will play files in a playlist because it can't handle "smb:/server/file" style format that nautilus constructs when you drag/drop a bunch of files into the play list. And like password-gorilla.....I don't even know how to get password-gorilla to access the samba share directly without setting up a fstab moun
[08:25] <Blakes5> t for mount on boot whereas in windows I just formatted the location of the file to open as //server/file. That nor smb://server/file works in that program.
[08:25] <tush> warning ignoring invalid value 'bain controller via the' for parameter 'map to guest'
[08:25] <tush> Blakes5, yes i did
[08:25] <lightpriest> Hey guys, I've upgraded from 14.04 to 15.10 and the unity interface isn't showing when logging in. For a newly created user it works fine. How can I reset my home folder per unity?
[08:26] <tush> Blakes5, still no if i do windows system restart same password works
[08:26] <tush> Blakes5, just now im again changed password
[08:26] <Blakes5> Tush just making sure here but, there are two passwords on the linux machine when samba is involved. There is the machine account password and the samba server account password. Did you change both?
[08:27] <tush> Blakes5, yes sir i did both password changed
[08:27] <Blakes5> hmmm, thats strange. I need to think about it.
[08:27] <xoom_flash> i just installed linux-4.5.0 on ubuntu14.04 but there is no wifi option. any  idea how to fix?
[08:27] <tush> Blakes5, now now i changed pass word
[08:28] <tush> Blakes5, [sudo] password for tush:
[08:28] <tush> WARNING: Ignoring invalid value 'bain controller via the' for parameter 'map to guest'
[08:28] <tush> Blakes5, what this error for
[08:28] <Blakes5> tush IDK, I've never seen it.
[08:28] <tush> Blakes5, im using webmin to control samba
[08:29] <llutz> !webmin | tush
[08:29] <Blakes5> tush I'm guessing webadmin is throwing the error, not samba.
[08:29] <xoom_flash> i just installed linux-4.5.0 on ubuntu14.04 but there is no wifi option. any  idea how to fix?
[08:29] <tush> Blakes5, but sir im using putty to change password
[08:30] <tush> Blakes5, sudo smbpasswd -a username
[08:31] <Blakes5> tush if you used passwd <user> and then smbpasswd <user> then I don't know why a share would no longer be visible to that user.
[08:31] <boxmein> lightpriest: uhm, this here suggests you drop to a terminal and remove or just move your dconf directory (this contains all GNOME settings!)
[08:31] <boxmein> lightpriest: alternatively, unity-tweak-tool --reset-unity apparently fixes that
[08:31] <boxmein> lightpriest: see more in http://askubuntu.com/questions/453482/update-to-14-04-unity-is-not-loading-after-i-login-to-the-admin-profile-after
[08:32] <Blakes5> tush you could try /etc/init.d/samba restart and see if that clears it up
[08:32] <lightpriest> boxmein: thanks, I'm trying this
[08:34] <tush> Blakes5, No sir
[08:34] <V7> Blakes5: Linux will do all what you want from him
[08:34] <tush> Blakes5, just changed password for user still not working
[08:35] <tush> Blakes5, if i reboot my windows system it will work
[08:35] <Blakes5> tush then then my next step would be to go through /etc/samba/smb.conf and make sure my shares are still defined properly
[08:35] <Blakes5> Tush so when does it break?
[08:35] <llutz> tush: "testparm" to check your smb.conf
[08:36] <tush> Blakes5, when i change password for user
[08:37] <xoom_flash> i just installed linux-4.5.0 on ubuntu14.04 but there is no wifi option. any  idea how to fix?
[08:37] <tush> llutz, u want dump
[08:37] <llutz> tush: check the output
[08:38] <tush> llutz, yes everything is ok as before was
[08:38] <Blakes5> V7 Ok. That doesn't help me know or find out to know how to make it work. So, how would I link directly to a file on a samba share in password-gorilla when \\server\file nor smb://server/file works. This has been an issue I've been looking for an answer for a while. But I've been able to work around it by copying the database file. I'm looking to get away from that and open the file on the samba share directly with password-gorilla w
[08:38] <Blakes5> ithout having to mount a share. Is that possible or will it require a fstab mount for seemless integration?
[08:38] <tush> llutz, Blakes5 If i reboot my windows system it will work with new password..
[08:39] <linocisco> V7, nobody could help
[08:39] <Blakes5> Tush I don't understand if it works when you reboot.....when does it stop working?
[08:39] <V7> Blakes5: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/264950/using-samba-for-random-access-without-mounting-the-file-system
[08:39] <V7> Blakes5: http://askubuntu.com/questions/409411/authenticate-in-network-share-samba-without-having-to-mount-explicitly
[08:40] <V7> linocisco:
[08:40] <Blakes5> V7 thanks I'm taking a look at that now.
[08:41] <V7> linocisco: http://supportdrivers.info/canon-imageclass-mf8580cdw-drivers-win8-1-mac-os-x-linux/ ?
[08:41] <tush> Blakes5, If change password now it will stop working , if i restart system after changing password it will work
[08:42] <Blakes5> Tush so when you change the password in Samba on the linux machine, windows stops working?
[08:42] <boxmein> lightpriest: let me know if this fixes the issue for you, so I can know myself in the future :P
[08:44] <tush> Blakes5, sharing stop working throwing error you might not have permission
[08:45] <lightpriest> boxmein: sure thing :P
[08:46] <Blakes5> Sounds like the issue is in Windows, not Samba or Linux system. Windows caches the password for future use.
[08:46] <tush> Blakes5, im accessing using IP not server
[08:46] <Blakes5> tush So when you reboot Windows prompts you for the new password and then it works.
[08:47] <tush> Blakes5, yes yes
[08:47] <Blakes5> Tush \\<IP_ADDRESS>\dir\file is that something like you're using or is it something else?
[08:47] <tush> Blakes5, same u typed
[08:47] <Blakes5> tush ok
[08:48] <Blakes5> tush So when you reboot windows and the new password works it only breaks when you change the password on the samba server?
[08:48] <ikonia> :q!
[08:49] <tush> Blakes5, Yes, and one more thing i just discovered if i use server name not by IP to aceess it work
[08:49] <Blakes5> V7 yeah it doesn't look like accessing a samba share in linux is as seemless as in windows.
[08:49] <lightpriest> boxmein: nothing works :( I've never felt so lost. I usually know my way around in these things
[08:50] <lightpriest> boxmein: do you know of some session log file of unity or the lightdm greeter that I can take a look at?
[08:50] <V7> linocisco: dmesg ?
[08:50] <Blakes5> Tush I don't know how to get windows to dynamically ask for the new password without a reboot. But I would not consider that a major hurdle....just reboot and the problem is fixed until next password change.
[08:51] <boxmein> lightpriest: there's the X11 log, which is in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:51] <boxmein> lightpriest: LightDM works though, since the greeter is fine
[08:52] <boxmein> lightpriest: the issue is unity-side, and you can probably use your account fine with a non-gnome window manager
[08:52] <tush> Blakes5, still not able to access my shared folder....
[08:53] <lightpriest> boxmein: yeah, it does, but maybe it tries to run unity and then unity decides not to load some other stuff
[08:53] <linocisco> V7, why dmesg?
[08:53] <lightpriest> boxmein: ohh well :/
[08:54] <boxmein> lightpriest: that's probably the plan
[08:54] <boxmein> lightpriest: issue*
[08:54] <boxmein> lightpriest: but, the X11 logs are your best bet.
[08:54] <Blakes5> Tush IDK at this point.
[08:55] <Blakes5> Tush from what I'm getting from you is that it works/it doesn't work. I would need to have hands on to troubleshoot the problem.
[08:55] <tush> Blakes5,  password is change is working on both samba and unix but on share
[08:55] <lightpriest> boxmein: I couldn't find anything there. if I open up a gnome-terminal after I log in (from tty01) and run "setsid unity", unity comes up, but without the top right items (clock, logout, etc.)
[08:55] <tush> u want access
[08:56] <tush> Blakes5, i mean to u nees remote access
[08:56] <Blakes5> tush yes but I'm not asking for that. I'm just saying I don't know and in order to troubleshoot it I would have to examine it myself.
[08:57] <boxmein> lightpriest: that specific panel issue is usually fixed by restarting the unity-panel-service
[08:57] <tush> Blakes5, looks like some password sync problem
[08:57] <Blakes5> tush I'm not getting the information I need here in order to actually see what is going on. From your descriptions I'm not sure what exactly is happening.
[08:57] <boxmein> lightpriest: to be honest, I'm not that well-versed in unity internals, so I probably can't help you specifically
[08:58] <tush> Blakes5, do u want ubuntu access
[08:58] <Blakes5> tush no
[08:58] <boxmein> lightpriest: I've had most issues with unity resolved by avoiding proprietary graphics drivers
[08:58] <lightpriest> boxmein: no problem, I think I'm getting somewhere :P
[08:58] <tush> Blakes5, what info u need SMB.conf
[08:58] <Blakes5> tush is it still allowing you to put in the new password on reboot and it works?
[08:59] <tush> Blakes5, after reboot it ask for password and it work
[09:00] <Blakes5> tush does it break on the next reboot?
[09:00] <tush> Blakes5, NO
[09:01] <pumpk1n> hey i need help with ufw, anyone ?
[09:01] <Blakes5> tush then I would settle for the reboot as being the solution. And instruct anyone affected that their password has been changed and they will need to reboot in order to access their shares.
[09:02] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: "auth fail" -> "re-attempt auth" is too hard for windows :P
[09:02] <tush> Blakes5, Ok, but is there any problem with my smb.conf
[09:02] <Blakes5> tush it's a password caching problem with Windows.
[09:02] <Blakes5> Tush any solution you're looking for is going to come from the Windows side.
[09:02] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: if rebooting windows fixes it, it's a windows problem
[09:03] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter Ok
[09:04] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter to change password for any user command is sudo smbpasswd -a username
[09:04] <Blakes5> tush there may be some commandline utility in windows to force it to ask for a password. If it exists it is going to be far beyond any users (hell I don't know what it is). So in this circumstance instructions to reboot would be appropriate.
[09:05] <Blakes5> tush -a adds a users
[09:05] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter to reset
[09:05] <Blakes5> tush smbpasswd username will change the password.
[09:06] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter ok just smbpasswd username will change any existing user
[09:06] <Blakes5> tush right
[09:06] <tush> Blakes5, Sir mostly i use webmin for sharing purpose
[09:07] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: but then convincing windows that it should ask for a new password for the server apparently requires a reboot.. it can't work that out on its own when samba starts saying "wrong password, try again"
[09:07] <lightpriest> boxmein: I think I found the issue
[09:07] <V7> lightpriest: ?
[09:07] <lightpriest> boxmein: I mean, I found some difference in ~/.xsession-errors in different user sessions
[09:08] <sworup182> hello. i can't change the opacity of my terminal?
[09:08] <sworup182> Please help
[09:08] <Blakes5> tush I think someone posted earlier that it is not entirely compatable with debian linux.
[09:08] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i have to do  CHMOD 0777 to share any folder, then put valid user
[09:08] <V7> sworup182: ?!
[09:08] <V7> sworup182: Go to profiles settings
[09:09] <V7> Then background and change
[09:09] <tush> Blakes5, i know sir sorry for that
[09:09] <Blakes5> tush smb.conf tells you 0755 I believe.
[09:09] <sworup182> V7: thanks man.
[09:09] <tush> Blakes5, yes but no one able to write any or creat any folder
[09:10] <tush> Blakes5, just read
[09:10] <tush> Blakes5, if i do chmod 0777 allow specific user then flawlessly he can use
[09:10] <Blakes5> Tush I know little of linux permissions since I only use it for personal stuff so 777 will generally solve any problems for me but I'm fairly certain you don't want to use that as a solution in a multiuser environment.
[09:11] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: I have 2777 on my samba uplink folder. personal homes (or other types of per-user share) should definitely be 755 or even 700
[09:12] <tush> Blakes5, Tri
[09:12] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter if i keep 0755 only root can read write execute
[09:13] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: 0755 means anyone can read execute, only owner (whoever that is) can write
[09:13] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter but owner is root only
[09:14] <Blakes5> tush then change the owner if it is a personal share for a non-root user
[09:14] <boxmein> lightpriest: hmm.. at least you'll get to google more specifically now
[09:14] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter owner will be only single user right???
[09:15] <Blakes5> tush if the folder is for TUSH but you created the folder with root then it belongs to root. I believe the command is chown to change the owner to TUSH
[09:15] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: yeah. if you set g+ws then you can put a group on the share and new files/folders in the share will get the new group.
[09:16] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter yes all shared folder is root only
[09:17] <Blakes5> Tush then the question is "Who needs access to that folder"? If it's just one user then you want to chown it. If it's a group of users then use Triffid's suggestion.
[09:17] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter in future if i want to change owner will i be able to ...
[09:17] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: if you're using groups, the owner is basically irrelevant
[09:19] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i want tush to be full access but keeping root as the super root if something happens root can delete any files from it
[09:19] <Blakes5> Tush root has access to everything always.
[09:19] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter You mean even i change owner of folder to tush
[09:20] <Blakes5> tush yes
[09:20] <dannymichel> wubi is done?
[09:20] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter OK OK :)
[09:21] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i want 5 user to be read write and execute in that case
[09:22] <Blakes5> Tush then you want to create a group and use Triffid's suggestion
[09:22] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i must creat group and put all 5 user in that group right
[09:22] <Blakes5> tush right
[09:23] <dannymichel> That's 10am my time https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/ACcr2SuH/14%3A00UTC
[09:23] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter then what will be the sharing rules
[09:23] <dannymichel> whoops
[09:23] <dannymichel> yeah but is wubi done?
[09:23] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter i mean permission
[09:23] <Blakes5> tush you create the group. you add users to group. you assign permissions for the group to access the folder/files.
[09:24] <lotuspsychje> !wubi | dannymichel
[09:24] <dannymichel> i kinda liked wubi
[09:24] <tush> Blakes5, Triffid_Hunter permisson like chmod 0777 like this
[09:24] <dannymichel> i dont like partitioning and dual booting
[09:25] <tush> Triffid_Hunter, Blakes5 chwon 0777 group name
[09:25] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: the numbers are for special flags, owner, group, everyone.
[09:25] <dannymichel> !install
[09:25] <tush> Triffid_Hunter, Blakes5 chmod 0777 group name
[09:25] <Triffid_Hunter> tush: 1 = execute, 2 = write, 4 = read
[09:25] <lotuspsychje> dannymichel: you can install, partition from a liveusb/cd also
[09:25] <dannymichel> yeah i know how. just dont like to
[09:25] <tush> okok
[09:25] <dannymichel> wubi was good for me
[09:26] <Blakes5> tush idk
[09:27] <tush> Triffid_Hunter, Sir what will be the command if i creat group called school and put 5 user in it
[09:27] <lightpriest> boxmein: phew. finally. it turns out I somehow ended up with the busybox binaries (ls, expr, ..) installed in my ~/bin folder (which is in the PATH) because of that all the scripts under /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ failed to load properly because of unsupported flags. After that unity loaded and I did the tweak-tool reset flag and everything went back to normal. Thanks!
[09:27] <boxmein> lightpriest: eep. bet that was interesting to debug
[09:28] <boxmein> lightpriest: thanks for the postmortem :D glad you fixed it
[09:29] <tush> Triffid_Hunter, Blakes5 permisson for group school i want full read write execute chmod 124 school
[09:29] <duan> hi
[09:30] <Blakes5> tush https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduction-to-linux-permissions
[09:31] <duan> I can not install flashplugin-installer
[09:31] <duan> does anyone can solove it
[09:31] <duan> ?
[09:31] <lotuspsychje> duan: adobe flash for linux is pretty dead mate
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> duan: use freshplayer or chromium-browser with pepperflash
[09:32] <Blakes5> duan Flash is dead save a few legacy sites
[09:32] <duan> Ok I'll try now
[09:34] <DevAntoine> hi
[09:34] <DevAntoine> I've got an issue with the time using xubuntu
[09:34] <DevAntoine> it show me 11:35 but in Paris it's 10:35
[09:35] <DevAntoine> I don't understand why, the time is sync with ntp
[09:35] <DevAntoine> yesterday I set it up manually but today when booting it's back to the wrong time
[09:35] <Triffid_Hunter> wrong timezone?
[09:35] <DevAntoine> Triffid_Hunter: I think my timezone is right
[09:35] <DevAntoine> how can I check that?
[09:36] <lotuspsychje> !time | DevAntoine
[09:37] <romano> hi
[09:37] <lotuspsychje> romano: welcome, what can we do for you?
[09:38] <Hiro`> Hey everyone. I recently upgraded from 15.04 to 15.10. Since then I've been getting a plymouthd error on startup. I searched google and found what looks like an easy solution, but I still get the same error whenever I logon.
[09:38] <lotuspsychje> Hiro`: what kind of error you havin mate?
[09:38] <Hiro`> It's described with the fix here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/407131/why-is-plymouthd-crashing-on-startup
[09:39] <DevAntoine> whaaaaaat
[09:39] <DevAntoine> I've installed my system yesterday with a single account
[09:39] <lotuspsychje> Hiro`: how long have you been working on 15.04 before upgrading?
[09:39] <DevAntoine> yesterday I could use sudo as I want
[09:40] <Hiro`> lotuspsychje: I'm also getting this error, despite attempts to fix: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/03/fix-failed-to-fetch-google-chrome-apt-error-ubuntu
[09:40] <DevAntoine> today the system tells me I'm not in the sudoers
[09:40] <DevAntoine> so what, I'm fucked?
[09:40] <lotuspsychje> !chrome-repo | Hiro`
[09:41] <Hiro`> lotuspsychje: right, so my issue is, why don't these fixes appear to do anything?
[09:41] <DevAntoine> is it because I've switch from bash to zsh (I don't think so)??
[09:41] <Hiro`> lotuspsychje: I'd been on 15.04 for 5 or 6 months.
[09:41] <lotuspsychje> DevAntoine: please try to ask your issue all in one line, and be patient mate
[09:41] <DevAntoine> when installing the system yesterday I've only provided a password for my account but I can't use it to login with root
[09:42] <lotuspsychje> Hiro`: when did you upgrade to 15.10?
[09:43] <DevAntoine> Apparently I'm not in the sudoers anymore. I've installed my system yesterday, I could use "sudo" with my account with any issue, but today I'm not in the sudoers anymore, the root's password seems not to be the same as my account. What can I do?
[09:43] <Hiro`> lotuspsychje: recently, last couple of weeks. I forget the exact day
[09:43] <lotuspsychje> Hiro`: ok, just be carefull you upgrade to the next version, before your current version is end of life, might be danger for security
[09:44] <Hiro`> lotuspsychje: I'm probably going to jump to LTS as soon as the next version is released.
[09:44] <DevAntoine> oh god, I know. I've messed with groups, I'm only in the "docker" group. How can I get back to all the initial groups? Can someone give me a list?
[09:44] <Hiro`> for now, I am puzzled by various strange bugs
[09:44] <DevAntoine> can I even do something to get back to the sudo group without sudo?
[09:45] <lotuspsychje> Hiro`: maybe you should backup things while you can and start clean?
[09:45] <Hiro`> I also find that emacs takes an age to load when I'm at home. whereas at work, it's instantaneous
[09:46] <Hiro`> and when I try to bundle rails apps from within emacs, I'm refused because I lack permissions - even though there are no problems when bundling from the shell.
[09:47] <DevAntoine> I can't add my current user to other groups without sudo?
[09:47] <Triffid_Hunter> DevAntoine: only administrator can put users into new groups
[09:48] <Triffid_Hunter> DevAntoine: fire up a liveusb, mount your main disk and edit /etc/passwd as necessary
[09:48] <DevAntoine> yeah, I've seen I can boot in recovery
[09:49] <DevAntoine> well, the day is starting well...
[09:49] <DevAntoine> see you soon
[09:49] <Triffid_Hunter> DevAntoine: alternatively, just pass init=/bin/bash on the kernel commandline via grub edit and fix it that way ;)
[09:49] <devkul> hello
[09:51] <devkul> i am new to linux. how to install software by using sudo?
[09:51] <lotuspsychje> devkul: sudo apt-get install yourpackage

[10:01] <toomanyerrors> ok
[10:01] <toomanyerrors> help
[10:01] <lotuspsychje> !ask | toomanyerrors
[10:01] <toomanyerrors> i just installed higan/bsnes
[10:02] <toomanyerrors> just install higan/bsnes and it is not showing up on the dash

[10:03] <lotuspsychje> toomanyerrors: 14.04.4
[10:03] <toomanyerrors> ok, then?
[10:03] <toomanyerrors> i really cant update right now though
[10:03] <lotuspsychje> toomanyerrors: not being up to date is a security risk
[10:04] <toomanyerrors> i'm not fbi
[10:04] <toomanyerrors> dude seriously it's just not showing up on the dash what do i do
[10:04] <Mrokii> Hello. I think it happened after updating to 15.10 that the window shade function (only showing a windows' titlebar when double clicking it) doesn't work anymore. Instead the bar is shown for a moment and then the whole window is hidden. Does somebody know what the problem could be or what setting I should check (possibly in the compif config manager)?
[10:04] <Wug> exploitation of linux machines is automated and distributed, if you have an ip address, you may be vulnerable
[10:04] <Wug> you should update
[10:05] <toomanyerrors> ok i'll do it when my isp updates my speed again
[10:06] <Wug> the same is true for all operating systems but linux is somewhat more exposed than others due to the general competence and greater degree of use than other operating systems, as well as the propensity for incomplete knowledge to be more dangerous
[10:06] <lotuspsychje> Mrokii: when did you upgrade to 15.10?
[10:06] <Mrokii> lotuspsychje: Not sure. Some weeks ago.
[10:07] <lotuspsychje> Mrokii: i would try a clean install or lts
[10:07] <toomanyerrors> ?
[10:07] <toomanyerrors> for now what can i do
[10:07] <lotuspsychje> toomanyerrors: update to latest
[10:08] <toomanyerrors> dude
[10:08] <ouroumov_> toomanyerrors, you can start your program from the command line, probably
[10:08] <toomanyerrors> my speed is 12 KB/s
[10:08] <Mrokii> lotuspsychje: That's more than I want to do at the moment. And I don't want to go back to an older version.
[10:09] <toomanyerrors> i cant do a 485 mb update right now
[10:09] <lotuspsychje> Mrokii: try to create another user and see if you got same issue there?
[10:09] <toomanyerrors> but my data cycle is restarted on 26th
[10:09] <Mrokii> lotuspsychje: That's something I could try. Thanks.
[10:10] <lotuspsychje> toomanyerrors: we just warning you mate, your the boss of your system but not being up to date can get you in trouble like your in now..
[10:10] <toomanyerrors> yessir
[10:10] <toomanyerrors> so my problem is because os is not up to date?
[10:11] <lotuspsychje> toomanyerrors: i didnt say its related, but things get get fixxed by updating in some cases yes
[10:11] <toomanyerrors> isn't there a way to manually create a dash entry
[10:12] <toomanyerrors> because i obsessively close windows
[10:12] <sirsharpest> Hey guys, was hoping that I could ask, how do I update the unity DE? I want to get the latest version of unity so that I can move the task bar to along the bottom? I tried installing unity 8 but it just gave me a load of mobile & ubuntu touch stuff
[10:12] <toomanyerrors> so i may end up closing the terminal and losing my progress
[10:12] <lotuspsychje> sirsharpest: unity8 can be already tested but is still in developing right now
[10:13] <linocisco> V7, i use the same .deb
[10:13] <linocisco> V7, printer was installed. not ok yet
[10:13] <sirsharpest> Yeah I tried to install it, but like I said, all I got was unity 8 mobile version? Didn't seem to have a desktop version in the repos?
[10:13] <lotuspsychje> sirsharpest: it looks indeed as an early ubuntu-touch version still, so wait until 16.04 comes out
[10:13] <ppf> when running cuda code, i occasionally get the error "irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
[10:14] <sirsharpest> Ah okay, thanks :)
[10:14] <ppf> how can i circumvent that?
[10:14] <lotuspsychje> !unity8 | sirsharpest
[10:14] <neeroj> hello
[10:14] <toomanyerrors> installing unity8 with apt removes modemanager
[10:15] <toomanyerrors> modemmanager*
[10:15] <DevAntoine> \o/
[10:15] <DevAntoine> I'm in the sudo group again
[10:15] <sirsharpest> thanks ubottu, just trying that now :)
[10:16] <linocisco> hi all, I dont know how to install Canon MF 8580 CDW network printer on ubuntu 14.04 64 bit
[10:16] <DevAntoine> but I fear I'm not in all the groups I should be...
[10:16] <linocisco> I tried all drivers 64 bit deb. not ok yet
[10:16] <lotuspsychje> sirsharpest: just keep in mind its still in developing mode, so if you find a bug, file it :p !bug
[10:16] <linocisco> printer was installed but can't print
[10:16] <toomanyerrors> what does modemmanager do anyway?
[10:16] <ppf> manage modems
[10:17] <toomanyerrors> so why is it being removed?
[10:17] <ppf> because it's not compatible with unity 8, most likely
[10:19] <toomanyerrors> whoa
[10:19] <toomanyerrors> then what will manage modems?
[10:19] <toomanyerrors> without a modem manager wouldnt you lose internet?
[10:19] <ppf> are you using a modem?
[10:19] <toomanyerrors> define
[10:19] <toomanyerrors> modem
[10:20] <toomanyerrors> im using wifi
[10:20] <toomanyerrors> so im guessing it isnt needed?
[10:20] <ppf> a hardware device that modulates digital data onto analog sognals
[10:20] <ppf> signals, too
[10:21] <toomanyerrors> ok so ethernet is digital too
[10:21] <toomanyerrors> so modem not required?
[10:21] <toomanyerrors> ethernet and wifi are the only comms i have
[10:23] <k1l_> toomanyerrors: unity8 is still i development for the desktop. its already used on smartphones and tablets. so maybe its a depency from that devices
[10:24] <toomanyerrors> wait so i will still have my unity 7 right
[10:24] <toomanyerrors> it'll be a DE i can choose at login?
[10:24] <k1l_> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8inLXC  use this to test unity8 on a desktop
[10:28] <V7> linocisco: result ?
[10:28] <linocisco> V7, result=no print out
[10:30] <ppf> any thoughts about my IRQ problem?
[10:30] <V7> linocisco: : (
[10:31] <canyerliiki> merhaba
[10:31] <canyerliiki> türk varmı?
[10:31] <k1l_> !tr | canyerliiki
[10:34] <toomanyerrors> i just installed unity 8 from apt
[10:35] <toomanyerrors> is that ok?
[10:38] <DevAntoine> hi
[10:39] <DevAntoine> I've got an issue with the time. It displays 12:39 but I'm in Paris and the time should be 11:39. The time is synchronized using NTP and when I'm right click the clock and go to properties the timezone is set to Europe/Paris. I don't understand
[10:43] <Ben64> DevAntoine: what is the output of "date"
[10:44] <DevAntoine> Ben64: mercredi 16 mars 2016, 12:45:39 (UTC+0100)
[10:45] <k1l_> DevAntoine: dualbooting with win?
[10:45] <DevAntoine> k1l_: nop
[10:46] <Ben64> are you on some old ubuntu with outdated daylight savings times times?
[10:47] <DevAntoine> Ben64: nop, fresh install of 15.10 yesterday
[10:47] <DevAntoine> but it's xubuntu
[10:47] <DevAntoine> maybe it has something to do with that issue
[10:47] <Ben64> looks like it actually isn't updating properly
[10:48] <DevAntoine> that's lame
[10:48] <DevAntoine> I don't know what to do
[10:48] <Ben64> set a new server or do it manually
[10:48] <Ben64> Mar 16 2016 03:44:59 <DevAntoine>	Ben64: mercredi 16 mars 2016, 12:45:39 (UTC+0100)
[10:48] <Ben64> my time is correct, yours is from the future
[10:49] <EriC^^> DevAntoine: france doesn't have daylight savings til last sunday of march
[10:49] <DevAntoine> yes, I know Ben64, one hour too far
[10:49] <EriC^^> like here i think ( lebanon )
[10:49] <Ben64> no look at the minute and second
[10:49] <Ben64> it didn't get time from the internet
[10:49] <EriC^^> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time_by_country
[10:50] <DevAntoine> seriously what can I do?
[10:50] <EriC^^> oh nevermind
[10:50] <Ben64> DevAntoine: sudo killall ntpd && sudo ntpdate europe.pool.ntp.org
[10:52] <DevAntoine> 16 Mar 12:53:43 ntpdate[7372]: no server suitable for synchronization found
[10:53] <DevAntoine> :|
[10:53] <Ben64> you typed it just how i had it there?
[10:54] <DevAntoine> yes
[10:55] <Ben64> DevAntoine: run "sudo ntpdate -d europe.pool.ntp.org" and paste the results to http://paste.ubuntu.com
[10:55] <DevAntoine> timedatetcl shows this: RTC in local TZ: no
[10:55] <DevAntoine> maybe it's related?
[10:55] <Ben64> no
[10:56] <DevAntoine> Ben64: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15400851/
[10:56] <Ben64> you've got some kind of firewall blocking it
[10:56] <DevAntoine> god
[10:57] <DevAntoine> ntp use a special port?
[10:57] <DevAntoine> yes, I've got the company firewall
[10:57] <DevAntoine> (which makes me sick)
[10:57] <Ben64> there you go
[10:57] <DevAntoine> but why all my colleagues have the right time then?
[10:57] <bezaban> they sync against ad/internal ntp server?
[10:57] <DevAntoine> the one next to me is using ubuntu 15.10 with the correct time
[10:58] <Ben64> who knows, maybe they have an internal one
[10:58] <Ben64> you should ask your network guy
[10:58] <DevAntoine> port 123?
[11:04] <kandinski> hi, since a couple of days ago NetworkManager doesn't save the password for my VPN account. As a result, I can't use the VPN. Any idea what could that be?

[11:16] <anton___> hi @all!
[11:16] <Anticom> Hi all. I've got an µ sd card with some partitions written to it. I've got a script, that copies a new dev image to it and syncs it. However i still have to eject it using the unity bar using "Eject parent device" all the time. How do i do that via console so i can add it to my script?
[11:16] <anton___> I'm fighting with a connection to a bluetooth mouse, is anybody educated with these things?
[11:17] <toomanyerrors> anton
[11:17] <toomanyerrors> anton: just not connecting?
[11:21] <anton___> 1st: hardware is ok, works on other device; 2nd: it worked on my linux machine before, but very unstable (used just the linux mint cinnamon-control-center) 3rd: then I tried to connect via the command-line-tools hidd/hcitool, this worked only once and now I get the following error messages:
[11:22] <toomanyerrors> pastebin
[11:22] <toomanyerrors> put it on paste.ubuntu.com if it's an error message
[11:23] <anton___> https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15400917/
[11:23] <Ben64> anton___: are you on linux mint
[11:23] <toomanyerrors> he is
[11:24] <toomanyerrors> [16:51] <anton___> 1st: hardware is ok, works on other device; 2nd: it worked on my linux machine before, but very unstable (used just the linux mint cinnamon-control-center) 3rd: then I tried to connect via the command-line-tools hidd/hcitool, this worked only once and now I get the following error messages:
[11:24] <akik> Anticom: "sudo umount mount_point"
[11:24] <Ben64> well the mint support channel is in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org
[11:24] <Anticom> akik: in this SO thread there are some differences mentioned: http://askubuntu.com/questions/5845/what-is-the-difference-between-unmount-eject-safely-remove-drive-and-the
[11:24] <Anticom> thought the eject thing wasn't a simple unmount
[11:24] <toomanyerrors> hey how do i find out which bluetooth adapter i have?
[11:25] <toomanyerrors> because it doesnt work
[11:25] <toomanyerrors> it hasnt worked since the day i installed
[11:25] <akik> Anticom: so you found the solution?
[11:25] <toomanyerrors> neither has shutdown or rebooting
[11:25] <Ben64> toomanyerrors: lspci or lsusb, depending on how it's connected
[11:26] <Anticom> akik: No, otherwise i wouldn't ask. The SO top answer just points out some differences but not how to do it programatically
[11:27] <akik> Anticom: sync and then umount is safe
[11:27] <Anticom> okay
[11:27] <toomanyerrors> lspci has this result: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15400931/
[11:27] <akik> Anticom: is there only one partition on the stick that you have mounted?
[11:28] <Anticom> nope, it's 5
[11:28] <Anticom> but can't i simply do umount /dev/sdx ?
[11:28] <Anticom> or do i have to unmount every single partition?
[11:29] <akik> Anticom: umount all the partitions that you have mounted, not the whole device
[11:29] <Ben64> toomanyerrors: don't see it there
[11:29] <anton___> sorry, the internet connection broke
[11:29] <Anticom> akik: why?
[11:29] <anton___> > are you on linux mint: yes
[11:29] <toomanyerrors> but there is a bluetooth adapter
[11:29] <Ben64> anton___: well the mint support channel is in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org
[11:30] <akik> Anticom: that's just how it works(tm)
[11:30] <anton___> alrigght
[11:30] <Ben64> toomanyerrors: ok maybe its usb, or maybe it's not connected properly, or it has a hardware switch that is enabled
[11:31] <akik> Anticom: there's an option -t for umount which you can use if you want e.g. to umount all file system of certain type "sudo umount -t cifs -a"
[11:33] <toomanyerrors> https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15400945/
[11:33] <toomanyerrors> lsusb
[11:34] <akik> Anticom: then there's udisksctl which has an unmount command. i'm not sure how to use that, except for single partitions
[11:39] <akik> Anticom: this might be what you're looking for "sudo eject /dev/sdX"
[11:39] <Anticom> akik: Just tried that. However if i take out and insert the sd card again it won't mount. dmesg isn't showing anything interesting :/
[11:40] <akik> Anticom: strange, it works ok with a sandisk usb stick
[11:41] <anton___> sorry for this, there's no action in the linuxmint chat. Maybe it's not a linux-mint related problem anyways, since I'm trying to connect to the mouse via the commandline
[11:41] <anton___> .. ?
[11:42] <Bitrix> does anyone know why I don't have a inittab file?
[11:42] <Bitrix> an*
[11:43] <Anticom> anton___: try this one: http://askubuntu.com/a/239982/382883
[11:43] <bezaban> Bitrix: you are likely running systemd, which does not use that file
[11:43] <akik> Bitrix: ubuntu has now moved to upstart & systemd. inittab was used earlier
[11:44] <Bitrix> ok thanks alot
[11:54] <emilsp> is it normal for my xorg to crash on ubuntu 14.04 with gnome ? The only thing in syslog that had any relevance was an entry about gnome-shell shutting down because of an io error wrt Xorg
[11:55] <hicoleri> Why does my boot menu (F-10 menu) show only "ubuntu" as an option? I can't boot from usbs anymore because of that.
[11:56] <akik> emilsp: you can find more info in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and $HOME/.xsession-errors
[11:56] <EDinNY> I get a disk full error when apt-get dist-upgrade, even though partitions have lots of room.  There is no /boot partition, yet it seems to be full
[11:56] <k1l_> hicoleri: what is on that usb?
[11:57] <hicoleri> k1l_:xubuntu
[11:57] <k1l_> EDinNY: can you provide a "df -h" and "df -i" in a pastebin like paste.ubuntu.com ?
[11:57] <k1l_> hicoleri: and if you choose ubuntu on that menu, does it boot the usb? is the usb working? tested on another pc or usb port?
[11:57] <hicoleri> k1l_That happened after I installed linux mint on my computer
[11:58] <hicoleri> yes it does work on other pcs
[11:58] <EDinNY> k1l_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15401021/
[11:58] <hicoleri> k1l:The boot order menu in my BIOS also shows only ubuntu as an option
[11:59] <k1l_> hicoleri: wait, is says "ubuntu" in the bios boot menu, but you got mint installed?
[11:59] <hicoleri> k1l_:yep (and the LM guys werent answering me in their channel)
[12:00] <emilsp> akik, there's nothng unuusual there :(
[12:00] <k1l_> EDinNY: and "df -i"?
[12:00] <hicoleri> k1l_:this problem started from about half a year ago.
[12:01] <akik> emilsp: does it crash regularly? did you notice that the crashing started after installing a new gfx driver module?
[12:01] <EDinNY> WOW! k1l_: /dev/sda1<PHONE_NUMBER>09    8851   99% /
[12:01] <emilsp> akik, I did an upgrade recently, and whilst the system in general is buggy, my gnome session generally survives
[12:01] <k1l_> hicoleri: the OS cant interfer with the bios loading menu. so i guess the usb port is not recognizing the usb
[12:01] <hicoleri> yup
[12:02] <k1l_> hicoleri: so its more a hardware issue.
[12:02] <hicoleri> I don't know about that...
[12:02] <EDinNY> k1l_: How can that be?  Too many files?  HUH?
[12:03] <k1l_> EDinNY: a lot of small files using all the inodes.
[12:03] <emilsp> akik, I have a feeling this happened when I was switching inbetween tty's
[12:03] <ouroumov_> hicoleri, you've previously booted that particular stick?   This machine is a router.  No real stored data.  No users
[12:04] <ouroumov_> hicoleri, some USB stick can be usable, yet unbootable.
[12:04] <akik> emilsp: i'm a bit concerned about your comment "system in general is buggy". maybe your upgrade failed somehow?
[12:05] <hicoleri> ouroumov_:Thats fine, but shouldn't my boot order menu show my other hardware like my HDD and CD drive?
[12:06] <ouroumov_> Yes, unless those have been disabled in the bios
[12:07] <k1l_> hicoleri: we are long time out of the scope of this channel. see your hardware manual or ask in ##hardware about those issues.
[12:08] <hicoleri> okay
[12:10] <emilsp>  akik, it's the way we mount /home in the office (over the network) and the fact that gnome3 has never run nicely on ubuntu
[12:10] <adrian_1908> hello. Sorry this is not Ubuntu specific. I have noob questions about VPS (Virtual Private Server), can anyone recommend a freenode channel for that? (or maybe PM)
[12:11] <phil42> who are you thinking you might use for your vps?
[12:11] <k1l_> adrian_1908: i dont know your question so i would start in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:13] <adrian_1908> k1l_: Ok, I'll try my luck there. Tried a few channel names that I could think of, but those didn't exist :)
[12:14] <k1l_> !alis | adrian_1908
[12:14] <adrian_1908> cool, thanks.
[12:22] <EDinNY> k1l_: You recommended commands like "apt-get purge linux-headers-3.13.0-35 linux-headers-3.13.0-35-generi"?
[12:25] <EDinNY> I seem to be out of inodes in "/"  suggestions?
[12:25] <emilsp> get #rekt
[12:25] <EDinNY> rekt?
[12:26] <emilsp> why are you storing so many files ?
[12:26] <emilsp> I imagine there's a homogenous collection of loadsoffiles, right ?
[12:27] <EDinNY> emilsp: Don't know.  This is a 12.04 machine that is used as a router.  it has only been installed, and updated.  No users
[12:27] <EDinNY> Yes, I have run autoremove
[12:28] <EriC^^> EDinNY: what's the problem exactly
[12:29] <emilsp> check log files
[12:29] <k1l_> EDinNY: can you pastebin a "dpkg -l | grep linux-headers"?
[12:29] <EDinNY> EriC^^:  df -i returns /dev/sda1<PHONE_NUMBER>10    8850   99% /
[12:30] <EDinNY> k1l_: there are 49 of them
[12:30] <EriC^^> EDinNY: well that sucks
[12:30] <k1l_> EDinNY: can you pastebin? and a "uname -a"?
[12:30] <EDinNY> LOL
[12:30] <EriC^^> the inodes are very low to begin with though
[12:31] <EriC^^> i have 6,000,000 and it's a 90gb filesystem
[12:31] <k1l_> EDinNY: thing is: you dont need the old kernel-headers from kernels you dont use anyway.
[12:31] <EDinNY> I knew that.  Purge does not seem to get rid of them
[12:31] <EriC^^> EDinNY: how big is that fs?
[12:31] <resc_040b2_1369> ERiC^^ are you available to assist or do you have a going on now? Sorry had to leave yesterday have more time to fix this drive today..
[12:31] <EDinNY> /dev/sda1        11G  4.9G  5.5G  47% /
[12:31] <k1l_> EriC^^: its only 11GB
[12:32] <EriC^^> oh
[12:32] <ozzz> hello dear friends
[12:32] <EriC^^> resc_040b2_1369: yeah sure
[12:32] <ozzz> I'm trying to install ubuntu server
[12:32] <ozzz> and it tells me
[12:32] <EDinNY> Do I need to resize that partition?
[12:32] <ozzz> please insert disc labeled: Ubuntu Server 14.04.4 LTS Trusty Tahr amd64 20160217.1
[12:32] <ozzz> why I'm getting that message?
[12:32] <k1l_> EDinNY: stop
[12:32] <ozzz> or where can I download that image
[12:33] <k1l_> EDinNY: lets not get distracted here. what about the paste of the kernel headers and the uname -a?
[12:33] <EriC^^> resc_040b2_1369: remind me what you were up to yesterday and where you reached
[12:33] <EDinNY> Linux angel 3.13.0-79-generic #123-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 19 14:28:32 UTC 2016 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
[12:35] <EDinNY> k1l_: This is a bunch of them...wc tells me there are 49. http://paste.ubuntu.com/15401144/
[12:36] <k1l_> EDinNY: you can get rid of all those old kernels and headers. just remove the named packages with apt-get
[12:37] <resc_040b2_1369> what happened was attempted Win 7reinstall on  functioning dual boot 1TB.. Have 17.2 Rafaela an 14.04 on one extended part.. left a 210Gb section for this purpose, hoping to do a custom install an then reload Toshiba drivers.. Win 7 pretty much took Part table , cleared entries n took part of a swap part i had as a buffer.. Rescatux sees unalloc space, "disks" util in second drive 17.2 n 10.04 500Gb sees the 720+ Gb as unallo
[12:37] <resc_040b2_1369> c but still shows the parts., Gparted thinks it is unalloc..

[12:41] <k1l_> EDinNY: now run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to let apt run again
[12:41] <resc_040b2_1369> ERiC^^, how do i get back to this chat??
[12:41] <EriC^^> resc_040b2_1369: go to www.freenode.net and click on web
[12:41] <EriC^^> or install any irc client from the repos of the live usb
[12:41] <hhee> guys, which book or video tutorial or wiki can i recommended brand new linux user? ubuntu related or not
[12:42] <Antares>  http://www.ptokax.org PtokaX Direct Connect Hub UTF-8 http://forum.ptokax.org/index.php?topic=8848.0
[12:42] <hhee> with shell working too
[12:42] <EDinNY> k1l_: Thanks.  I will get rid of the other ones
[12:43] <hhee> (will be cool if not only english language there is)
[12:43] <resc_040b2_1369> ERiC^^, as this is 2nd chat ever done in whole existence.. Guessing use #ubuntu as "channel"??
[12:43] <k1l_> EDinNY: after that we can run a bash one-line-script to let old kernels and headers be removed
[12:43] <EriC^^> yeah
[12:43] <EDinNY> Thanks.  Easier than my plan to build a script file, k1l_
[12:43] <k1l_> EDinNY: dpkg --list | grep 'linux-headers' | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\([0-9.-]*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/q;p' | xargs sudo apt-get  purge
[12:43] <k1l_> thats for headers,
[12:44] <resc_040b2_1369> ERiC^^, THX(1138) back in few..
[12:44] <k1l_> dpkg --list | grep 'linux-image' | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\([0-9.-]*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/q;p' | xargs sudo apt-get purge
[12:44] <k1l_> thats for the old kernels
[12:45] <EDinNY> k1l_: run both of those?
[12:46] <aaari> !list
[12:48] <EDinNY> Oh, I see, k1l_, one for headers, one for kernels.
[12:52] <Guest75917> hi, not sure if i'm in the right place
[12:53] <hateball> !help | Guest75917
[12:53] <EDinNY> k1l_: that one-liner did not work
[12:54] <Guest75917> after a scheduled software update, touchpad doesn't work. Wondering if I can somehow restore to previous position?
[12:55] <EriC^^> EDinNY: what did it say
[12:55] <hateball> Guest75917: What packages got updated? Read /var/log/apt/history*
[12:55] <EDinNY> Executed too fast, and they did not go away
[12:55] <EriC^^> EDinNY: try adding a "-y" before purge
[12:55] <hateball> Guest75917: If it's a kernel regression, reboot and hold shift to get into grub menu, pick an older kernel and see if it works with that
[12:55] <EriC^^> apt-get -y purge
[12:56] <EDinNY> EriC^^: That did it!
[12:56] <Guest75917> thanks hateball, will try that
[12:57] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ the nick apparently changed from resc 0040031 to guest 36154.. have the install stick running system Gparted is functional do i have to rebuild Grub again? or how do I fix part framework to let Ubun n Linux become able to see my data that Win 7 Fr&&%&* up?
[12:58] <EriC^^> Guest36154: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[13:00] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ , have done so comes up with http://termbin.com/qduk
[13:00] <EDinNY> Thank you for your help, EriC^^ and k1l_.  Why weren't those removed during update?  They were on my laptop?  Same version.
[13:02] <EriC^^> Guest36154: so everything used to be on the 1tb?
[13:07] <phil42> after something has been posted to termbin how do you read it?
[13:07] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, not quite.. have 2 functioning satas that i transfer between 2 laptops n one tower.. Tower has XP an both satas  are able to boot tower n 2 laptops(other is old compaq..) Toshiba was the 1TB. Had win7 on originally.. broke it a few times putting 12.04 LTS, 10.04 LTS n then when 17.2 Broke it, F*%&#( this n just left Win 7 off.. Now need Win 7 to use LEAP Motion n VR interface.. Python is ok but 70-80% of apps use Win7.. So
[13:07] <Guest36154> oo Hey presto, missed parts of Win 7 process n Now 1TB 17.2 & 14.04 Parts are SL1gtLy 0Ff..any ideas sysadmin?
[13:07] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[13:08] <EriC^^> *blinks twice*
[13:09] <EriC^^> Guest36154: so there's just 1 hdd, and it has all the stuff
[13:09] <EriC^^> right?
[13:12] <Guest36154> EriC^^ the 1Tb has the 2 main parts Iuse (that did not get backed up(Guestis SHeepish..)) so am guessing data is still on 1TB but Win being the brainless wonder it is..decided to "Clean" the Part table(am hoping).. the stuff on 1 Tb is likely still there, ya think?? Did not choose "format" install on Win 7 attempt..
[13:13] <Guest7020> Hi, message for hateball
[13:13] <hateball> Guest7020: ?
[13:14] <lotuspsychje> youve got mail :p
[13:14] <Guest7020> hi hateball, I'm the guy with this software update. prob
[13:15] <Guest7020> I did what you said. Went to advanced options and boted from earlier os and it works fine
[13:15] <EriC^^> ok
[13:15] <Guest7020> what's the next step please?
[13:15] <EriC^^> Guest36154: type sudo apt-get install testdisk
[13:15] <hateball> Guest7020: file a !bug against the kernel-version that brings you grief then
[13:16] <Guest7020> ok, can I find how to do that on the general forum/
[13:16] <hateball> Guest7020: well it depends how comfortable you are with making changes to your system. You could set the older/working kernel as default
[13:16] <hateball> !bug | Guest7020
[13:17] <hateball> !who | Guest7020
[13:19] <Guest7020> Hateball, how do I set earlier kernal to default?
[13:20] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ Hard typing in terminal an not seeing my typing.. the term says it got the package testdisk 6.14-2.. Not knowing much about IRC n INET comms.. is the termbin terminal command a "linkback" so you are able to see into this computer??
[13:23] <hateball> Guest7020: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Setup#Specific_Entries
[13:23] <obb> hi, what do i have to do to sync my iphone with ubuntu?
[13:23] <Guest7020> Hateball, many thanks
[13:23] <obb> its not working out of the box
[13:23] <EriC^^> Guest36154: no it's just a pastebin site
[13:24] <lotuspsychje> !iphone | obb
[13:24] <EriC^^> Guest36154: the command uploads the output to the pastebin
[13:24] <EriC^^> Guest36154: run sudo testdisk
[13:24] <EriC^^> it's a program to recover partitions, you're missing some in the extended partition
[13:24] <EriC^^> Guest36154: about 750gb
[13:25] <obb> !phone
[13:26] <k1l> obb: iphonoes are not known for beeing working with all the other OS easily.
[13:26] <k1l> !iphone
[13:27] <MacroMan> What command can I run to find out what is listening on a port?
[13:27] <hateball> MacroMan: sudo netstat -untap
[13:27] <EriC^^> sudo lsof -i :<port>
[13:29] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, Ohh, ok thats cool.. Have been in an isolated world since starting with a PET in 82.. doing the sudo testdisk now.. that 750Gb is supposed to be, in oreder ion the Gparted screen: 18Gb swap space, then the 17.2 with 1Gb unalloc then the 14.04 with a 8Gb swap space at the end(or vice-versa on the 2 OS's, been a week or so since last check..here goes
[13:29] <MacroMan> Thanks.
[13:29] <obb> banshee is throwing system.argumentnullexceptions when i connect my phone
[13:30] <EriC^^> Guest36154: ok, run the command
[13:30] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, do the Create option, correct?
[13:30] <EriC^^> no
[13:30] <EriC^^> no log
[13:30] <Guest36154> running no log now
[13:31] <EriC^^> k
[13:32] <Guest36154> returns 3 "sd"devices: sda= 1000 Gb, sdb=8053 Mb(17.2 Stick), sdc=500 GB Proceed on the 1000GB?
[13:34] <EriC^^> yeah
[13:36] <Fooster> if I install the 16.04 beta now how easy will it be to update once its officially released?
[13:37] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, Intel selected,use Analyse or Advanced??
[13:37] <lotuspsychje> !final | Fooster
[13:37] <lotuspsychje> Fooster: #ubuntu+1 for more details :p
[13:38] <ioria> lotuspsychje, i made another  Launcher http://imgur.com/delete/bFWlDfzz2YQl2FI
[13:40] <wonderworld> Does somebody by any chance use Excel 2010 with wine? I'd like to know if it works nicely or if it creates problems? WineDB gives it "GOLD" status but I'd like to know from someone who actually uses it.
[13:40] <DevAntoine> I've downloaded phpstorm, a self exuecutable IDE, but I don't know where to store it. Should I put it inmy home or a directory like /usr/local/bin or /usr/lib or smoething else?
[13:43] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, info: At best friends in SC, USA.. He's been IT since 80;s when both parents were DEC higher ups.. Gave me a 10.04 kernel due to my "*issues*" with MS-DOS grandkid "WINDOWS",, never looked back unless had to (XP is best for MechWarrior3..) n now for my LEAP.. He just came in, congratted me on figurin out chat n getting some sysadmin type help.. He doen't use linux unless has to for a recovery or repair type stuff.. Agrees
[13:43] <Guest36154> with mt comment that you folks that can do this chat stuff like you do are like CraCked Super Sys SUDOers..
[13:44] <Guest36154> Analyse
[13:44] <SchrodingersScat> Guest36154: enhance
[13:44] <lotuspsychje> wonderworld: any reason why not working with libreoffice?
[13:47] <Guest36154> ERiC, analyse option returns a slightly recignizable table.. think I used testdisk once before on a different tower.. does not have an "enhance" option or was that a comment on INFO: i gave you?? I have "Quick Search" or "Backup"
[13:48] <lotuspsychje> Guest36154: use the TAB key for nickname highlight please
[13:48] <Guest36154> lotuspsychje, how?
[13:49] <lotuspsychje> !tab | Guest36154
[13:50] <boze> Every day when I turn on my computer it boots all the way up to the password screen, then freezes and I get a purple screen. If I reboot it works. Happens every day. I changed my grub. Any chance it's something I did wrong? I noticed when it boots correctly grub counts down from 30 which isn't what's in my grub file http://kopy.io/BoibC
[13:51] <Guest36154> ubottu & louspsychje.. Then type into the pop-up??
[13:52] <nicomachus> Guest36154: what pop-up...?
[13:52] <EriC^^> Guest36154: ok, you chose analyze?
[13:52] <EriC^^> Guest36154: did you choose Intel?
[13:52] <Fooster> I guess 16.04 is using systemd and not upstart?
[13:52] <lotuspsychje> !systemd | Fooster
[13:53] <Fooster> systemd is crap :( sucks
[13:53] <lotuspsychje> Fooster: please not in this channel
[13:53] <Guest36154> ubottu...unnnhuh..seein as yer here an able to do all this triplemutiltasking stuff with the rest of these 1800 +.. that shows a capability i would like to have but wound up living a different life..
[13:55] <EriC^^> Guest36154: you pressed Intel, then analyze?
[13:55] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, chose Intel & Analyse.. have a invalid nNTFS or EXFAT boot table showing with 5 entries, sorry have slow fat fingers n got sidetracked at the speed of chatworld..
[13:59] <EriC^^> Guest36154: ok, press quick search
[13:59] <Guest36154> Doing Quick Search now
[14:03] <Guest36154> EriC^^, Quick Search returns 6 listings in the Partition, cycling thru, I recognize the sizes.of my partitions, so they are likely still functional,just way"LoBOTomized" by Win(the way Gates prefers Win users to be:???)
[14:04] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, do i Add the Partitions?? I have no Backups n do not think the T change type is correct? Right?
[14:08] <MonkeyDust> Guest36154  calm down, make a backup, then continue ... backup is key
[14:09] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust
[14:09] <EriC^^> Guest36154: can you take a screenshot of it?
[14:09] <MonkeyDust> lotuspsychje
[14:09] <Guest36154> MonkeyDust: ha ah ha..Would have been smart, enh?
[14:10] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, how does screeenshot work?
[14:10] <EriC^^> Guest36154: dont add anything yet, the partition table has to all add up or you'll lose other partitions, that window actually writes a new partition table with whatever is selected ( it doesn't just add them )
[14:10] <EriC^^> Guest36154: try pressing printscreen
[14:10] <EriC^^> save it and go to imgur.com and uplaod
[14:10] <bezaban> can you upgrade ubuntu the 'debian way'; eg. updating sources.list and apt-get
[14:10] <EriC^^> *upload
[14:10] <bezaban> having some trouble with do-release-upgrade :)
[14:10] <Guest36154> ERic^^,OHHH KAY, NOT going to make it worse...
[14:10] <EriC^^> bezaban: no
[14:11] <EriC^^> bezaban: what trouble?
[14:11] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ going to write this info down then do tasks
[14:11] <bezaban> EriC^^: it's unsupported here, but it's getting precise.gz and then has no candidates for install
[14:11] <MonkeyDust> bezaban  do-release-upgrade from what to what?
[14:12] <bezaban> lucid -> precise. Which is why I'm asking on a general note wrt procedure. it's a legacy bare-metal thing. I've slurped it to a vm and testing different approaches
[14:12] <EriC^^> !eolupgrades | bezaban
[14:13] <bezaban> yeah. tried that
[14:13] <EriC^^> you put old-releases in the sources.list?
[14:13] <bezaban> mirrors seem up anyway
[14:13] <bezaban> yep
[14:13] <EriC^^> and then sudo do-release-upgrade ?
[14:13] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, wow(Guest36154 eys widen with realization) chat IS a Whole New World, isn't it???
[14:13] <bezaban> EriC^^: indeed
[14:13] <EriC^^> bezaban: what did it say?
[14:14] <bezaban> EriC^^: sec
[14:14] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, the Printscreen must have worked, the screen blinked.. where do I find the snapshot it took?
[14:15] <EriC^^> Guest36154: look in ~/Pictures
[14:15] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, k trying now
[14:15] <Guest36154> ERiC^^,Cool, it's there. Do I have to have an IMGUR account
[14:16] <EriC^^> Guest36154: no
[14:17] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, so imgur.com in browser, then guessing, select upload n do same as if "attaching" a file in an email??
[14:17] <nuccun> V7, you around?
[14:18] <bezaban> bah. dev ds is full. Will finish trying the 'debian' upgrade then re-clone and try eol upgrade process again
[14:19] <EriC^^> Guest36154: yeah
[14:19] <bezaban> I'm suspecting some obsolete packages or general mismanagement. It was installed as 7 from the looks of it
[14:20] <EriC^^> bezaban: i dont think the debian upgrade works in ubuntu
[14:20] <EriC^^> what does do-release-upgrade say?
[14:21] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, have imgur, does it need an address?
[14:22] <bezaban> I can't remember, since I've had multiple attempts the past few days, I had the output logged to a file, but re-cloned the VM.
[14:22] <MonkeyDust> Guest36154  upload in imgur, then copy-paste the url here
[14:22] <bezaban> it was messages about No candidate ver:
[14:22] <bezaban> for mostly every package
[14:23] <Guest36154> MonkeyDust, have the screenshot showin on the imgur screen where is the URL?? do
[14:23] <bezaban> but it *did* get the next LTS version (precise.tar.gz) correctly
[14:23] <bezaban> and changed sources.list
[14:23] <MonkeyDust> Guest36154  the address, on top of the browser http:...
[14:25] <Guest36154> MonkeyDust you are assisting ERiC^^ in assisting Guest36154? So i finish start the upload?
[14:25] <EriC^^> Guest36154: yes press upload, and then give us the link at the top
[14:27] <Guest36154> ERiC^^,OHHHH Light breaks through Clouded Mind... sk3RwNW appears to be link?? Correct?
[14:28] <Guest36154> MonkeyDust, thank you for assist also
[14:29] <EriC^^> Guest36154: what's the full link?
[14:29] <MonkeyDust> Guest36154  have you never copy/pasted a link before?
[14:30] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, the browser bar says "imgur.com/sk3RwNW" Is that correct format?
[14:30] <Guest36154>  MonkeyDust, you are correct.
[14:31] <EriC^^> yeah it loads fine
[14:31] <kevinburke> Hi! I’m trying to set the system time to UTC such that when I log in and run “date”, or run programs that ask for the current time, they get UTC. Based on searching and http://askubuntu.com/a/524362, I expect that when I run sudo timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York, the system time will be set to UTC. The program exits with 0.
[14:31] <kevinburke> However, when I log out and log back in, and run the `date`, command, I’m still shown a date in EDT.
[14:31] <MonkeyDust> Guest36154  next time, click 2 or 3 times on the link, so it gets colored, then right click on it and copy... then paste here, with right click
[14:32] <zykotick9> kevinburke: ahhh, UTC != America/New_York...
[14:32] <kevinburke> here’s the output of timedatectl status: https://gist.github.com/kevinburke/a7fd77d97ceaedba8e00
[14:32] <Guest36154> MonkeyDust, that is timely advice.. appreciated but in many internet ways I am still a Commodore PET user..
[14:33]  * lotuspsychje presses play on tape
[14:33] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, are you able to see the table?
[14:33] <MonkeyDust> Guest36154  i come from the sinclair zx spectrum times, when 48k was *huge*, so i'm patient
[14:33] <kevinburke> zykotick9: I’m a little confused… yes, those are not the same? where should I be overwriting America/New_York that I’m not
[14:34] <EriC^^> Guest36154: yeah
[14:34] <EriC^^> Guest36154: ok, first off, do you have everything backed up? you could back up this drive as it is, using dd in case it doesn't go right
[14:35] <Pici> /25/21
[14:35] <Guest36154> lotuspchyje n MonkeyDust, I used to have "Miner49er", "NAB" n oine other ASCII games on the tapes.. Then learned how to "hack" the BASIC for "Miner" became the richest 7th grader around... LOOONG before bitcoin was a glimmer..
[14:35] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, can do back up how?
[14:36] <EriC^^> Guest36154: do you have another 1tb drive?
[14:37] <kingxmod> hello , i have a problem with the suspension of ubuntu-mate
[14:40] <EriC^^> Guest36154: do you have files you absolutely need?
[14:41] <EriC^^> you could get the files from the home dir and save them to another disk from testdisk before trying to recover the whole partition table
[14:41] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, no 1Tb but could probably fit parts of the data on the still Attached 500 Gb.. If oculd get linux to read it in the GUI.. Am not as good at Linux CLI as I once was with COMmand Line.. Getting 1Tb parts visible to Ubunt n Linux could enable me to take Win 7 disc with me back to NH(train leaves SC in 16 hours n still have another barn frame to help best friend take down) so getting the Parts functional again would allow a "C
[14:41] <Guest36154> lean Win7" install at later date then reinstall of 14.04 n 17.2(or 3), breaking Win 7 again prob.. Advice sysadmins??
[14:41] <kevinburke> FYI, I posted that timezone question here: http://askubuntu.com/q/746736/278643

[14:46] <Guest36154> of drive for itself(fat finger miss key..)
[14:46] <exnihilo> I was wondering if I could ask a couple of questions

[14:46] <EriC^^> Guest36154: ok which partition has the data you need?
[14:46] <exnihilo> ok sorry and thanks for the advice
[14:47] <EriC^^> Guest36154: go to that partition and press "p" and see if the files are there
[14:47] <Guest36154> ubottu, very adroit a bot, you are.. high functioning in a 'bot, is good, yes?

[14:50] <lotuspsychje> exnihilo: no thats the max speed your adapter can handle
[14:51] <EriC^^> Guest36154: yes, press right arrow to open a dir

[14:54] <exnihilo> So you think i better head there
[14:55] <exnihilo> Ok thanks for you information lotuspsychje
[14:55] <lotuspsychje> exnihilo: well this channel is for specific ubuntu problems if you have any
[14:55] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, this "chat" stuff is cool n all that but i beat ADHD by purposely slowing my existence down, think it's cool that MonkeyDust, ubottu n lustopsycheje helped otu but Hiow do I change the screen so I can just read what you are saying.?? I am not a "Pakled", just have to be methodical so I don't F*&#( it up worse.."
[14:55] <exnihilo> Ok I'll come back whenever I'got one thx
[14:56] <lotuspsychje> !manual | exnihilo start here and welcome to ubuntu
[14:56] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, also all the entries are in RED.. Does that signify how F^** up my Part is?
[14:57] <EriC^^> Guest36154: all?
[14:57] <EriC^^> /home/user is in red for instance?
[14:58] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ Have gotten down individual file names I recognize.. Whiole Screen is Red, every filename
[14:59] <EriC^^> Guest36154: is there a size next to them?
[14:59] <EriC^^> try to recover some files by pressing c
[15:00] <Guest36154> EriC^^, some have sizes, looks like some do not, likely FOLDERs that are DIR's on their own, am going to try n do "C"opy of selected files n see if can put them on the Desktop of the Linus Install shell from the stick
[15:03] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ chose a file n am now given option of /home/mint.. guessing the "Desktop" here is the "Desktop" of the shell I am in??
[15:05] <MonkeyDust> Guest36154  are you using Mint?
[15:05] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, have selected "Desktop" is now complaining of low disk space because the stick is only an 8GB right?? how do I force testdisk to see my 500Gb?
[15:05] <EriC^^> Guest36154: you have to mount it
[15:06] <EriC^^> Guest36154: and go to where it's mounted
[15:06] <Guest36154> MonkeyDust, am using my 17.2 USB to run the Toshiba with the 1Tb in the drive bay n the 500 Gb on external power via a usb
[15:07] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, how to mount from inside the 17.2 USB stick?
[15:07] <EriC^^> Guest36154: try sudo lsblk -f | nc termbin.com 9999
[15:07] <EriC^^> and paste the link here
[15:08] <ikonia> how is this an ubuntu issue ?
[15:08] <ikonia> am I missing something with it ?
[15:09] <EriC^^> he has 14.04 and 17.2
[15:09] <Guest36154> will try.. copying failed due to low disk space.. guessing the Install stick shell only has permission to use it's own "in stick" swap space??
[15:09] <ikonia> what do you mean "he has"
[15:10] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, am trying sudo etc now
[15:10] <EriC^^> i mean he has them installed
[15:10] <ikonia> right - but how does "this" have anything to do with ubuntu
[15:10] <ikonia> I'm not seeing anything to fix/manipulate ubuntu
[15:10] <EriC^^> he's trying to recover his ubuntu install
[15:10] <EriC^^> after installing windows and messing the partitions up
[15:11] <cbarrett> good morning
[15:11] <Guest36154> ikonia Ihave a triple boot 1Tb.. ubuntu mate 14.04 n linux mate 17.3 w a Win 7 bollux on the Part table due to Win &idiocy
[15:11] <cbarrett> I've managed to overwrite /etc/shells with garbage, I'd like to reset it
[15:11] <cbarrett> is the default contents of that file available somewhere?
[15:12] <ikonia> cbarrett: just a list of valid shells
[15:12] <cbarrett> I understand
[15:12] <elcamino> hi
[15:12] <cbarrett> I'd just like to reset it to the default
[15:12] <cbarrett> The default contents of that file should be available somewhere, right?
[15:13] <ikonia> cbarrett: it's just a list of valid shells
[15:13] <ikonia> just put in the valid shells you want
[15:13] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, sudo lsblk etc returns this: http://termbin.com/pq6j
[15:14] <cbarrett> I understand. I use a non-standard shell, and I don't want to mess up any of the other software my company uses
[15:14] <cbarrett> not sure which shells it depends on
[15:15] <graps> Hi
[15:15] <cbarrett> So I want to reset it back to the default
[15:15] <cbarrett> If you don't know what that is, that's fine
[15:15] <cbarrett> Maybe someone else can help me
[15:15] <cbarrett> But repeating the you already said comes across as rude
[15:15] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, had to open another TERM to do the sudo lsblk etc.. how does the Mount concept work to get the 500 Gb, via USB recognized by the 17.2 shell I am in???
[15:16] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, What is your Geographic location? is almost noon here in South Carolina..
[15:17] <nacc> cbarrett: you could use `apt-file` to see what provides taht file and maybe reconfigure or reinstall that package? or just extract it and copy out the file?
[15:17] <graps> Guest36154: Hello from San Diego ! It's almost 8:30AM here
[15:18] <Guest36154> graps am guessing all Assistors on this chat are global??
[15:18] <cbarrett>  /etc/shells should be part of the operating system, it would surprise me if it was provided by a package
[15:18] <nacc> cbarrett: i think it's generated at runtime,though, possibly
[15:18] <cbarrett> I'm not a linux user normally, I only use it at work
[15:18] <lotuspsychje> Guest36154: we have users/volunteers all over the world indeed
[15:18] <kernelus> hello
[15:18] <graps> Guest36154: Sure, it could be someone from Georgia in Russia, or Georgia, USA
[15:18] <s_n> hey
[15:18] <cbarrett> (normalyl I use BSD)
[15:19] <s_n> anyone know where can i find debugging symbols for bash?
[15:19] <nacc> cbarrett: it's part of the login shell setup, so it depends on what you mean by "operating system" :) just spin up a container or VM and copy the file out?
[15:19] <kernelus> can someone help me? i downloaded tar.gz file and extracted it. then i made ./configure and more files appear but when i type make nothing happen
[15:19] <cbarrett> I don't know how to spin up a container or VM, but I will look into that. I know that's something that's done here
[15:19] <s_n> "apt-cache search bash | grep -i dbg" doesn't show anything useful
[15:19] <cbarrett> Thank you nacc
[15:19] <lotuspsychje> kernelus: what are you trying to install exactly
[15:20] <nacc> cbarrett: should be pretty easy to do, i'd think, depending on which ubuntu you're on
[15:20] <cbarrett> Trusty
[15:20] <kernelus> im trying to install Qtractor
[15:20] <nacc> s_n: what version of ubuntu?
[15:20] <graps> s_n: debugging symbols...try http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/bashdb.html ?
[15:20] <Guest36154> lotuspsychje, Cannot Emphasize How Seriously Appreciated Assistors are.. am not that much a noob.. just have "17" different Projects going on an Really Hate Win & idiocy F*$( my Part tables up...
[15:20] <wang__> hello,it's long time not float
[15:20] <kernelus> and i follow instructions on their website
[15:21] <s_n> Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
[15:21] <nacc> s_n: have you tried adding the ddebs repository? I'm not sure when that went into effect (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash)
[15:21] <EriC^^> Guest36154: 1 sec
[15:21] <EriC^^> eating and stuff
[15:21] <lotuspsychje> kernelus: its already in ubuntu repos
[15:22] <lotuspsychje> !info qtractor | kernelus
[15:22] <graps> Guest36154: It's a pleasure to help someone
[15:22] <lotuspsychje> s_n: also, update to latest asap mate
[15:22] <lotuspsychje> !usn | s_n to stay secure
[15:22] <mcphail> s_n: have a look at the information at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debug%20Symbol%20Packages
[15:23] <s_n> ubottu: sure. thanks
[15:23] <graps> s_n: You can also try github: http://gist.github.com/mikesart/11274126
[15:23] <lotuspsychje> kernelus: hydrogen is very recommended too
[15:23] <s_n> ok, looks like i needs these ddebs repo
[15:24] <Guest36154> graps, thnks. Hence the question on Geo Location because being up a 3 am for someone local time to them to help us with "issues" is a serious, respectable committment..
[15:24] <cbarrett> nacc: I figured it out. Thank you very much for your help
[15:24] <mcphail> s_n: however, bash is trivial to build manually if you want to make the debug symbols yourself
[15:25] <kernelus> lotuspsychje: i can edit mp3 files in that app?
[15:25] <nacc> cbarrett: np, glad you got yourself up & running
[15:25] <graps> Guest36154: If it's not an official Ubuntu admin/sysop that's assisting you, though, it may only be free advice...might not help per se
[15:25] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, can i do the "mount" trick in another shell to force the 17.2 install shell to recognize a storage devicec?
[15:25] <lotuspsychje> kernelus: not sure in wich format it saves the project, test out yourself perhaps
[15:25] <s_n> mcphail: true. but i've already have an instance i need to debug
[15:26] <kernelus> lotuspsychje: ok thank you
[15:27] <Guest36154> graps.. Understood, so this is help from knowlegable ones but the accumulated knowledge is the way it works, not the concentration thereof into one or a few brains..
[15:27] <graps> Guest36154: Sure :)
[15:28] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, your skill level seems to be up to this task..
[15:28] <EriC^^> Guest36154: ok, imback
[15:29] <EriC^^> Guest36154: it's already mounted it seems at /media/mint/201
[15:29] <Guest36154> ERiC^^,am guessing that there is other steps I need to take.. hence the question of location to know if success is possible
[15:29] <Guest36154>  /Media/Mint/201 on my computer?
[15:30] <EriC^^> Guest36154: yeah
[15:30] <EriC^^> in testdisk first try to copy the important files you need to /media/mint/201
[15:31] <EriC^^> if that's the other big partition
[15:31] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, so what is way to force storage to go there?
[15:31] <EriC^^> Guest36154: in testdisk when you choose where to save
[15:31] <EriC^^> instead of /home/mint go to /media/.. with the arrows
[15:31] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, OHHH use 201 as the location???
[15:31] <EriC^^> yes if that's the stuff
[15:32] <EriC^^> type df -h /media/mint/201
[15:32] <EriC^^> to see its size
[15:32] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, am going to try now
[15:33] <graps> EriC^^: Guest36154 can also do a df /media/mint/201 to get k-blocks, and can sort it acc. to size
[15:35] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ n graps, appreciate the quick terms.. am not that up to speed on all the UNIverXe acronyms.. Do I use the df command in a diff term from the testdisk one?
[15:36] <Guest36154> because I tried to df in that term an it didn't recognoize it
[15:36] <s_n> thanks all
[15:37] <EriC^^> Guest36154: yeah dont type anything in the testdisk terminal
[15:37] <graps> Guest36154: You can use df by itself to group partitions/disks according to k-block sizes with the sort command, like df /media/mnt/201 | sort -k <k-block position>
[15:38] <graps> Guest36154: Or, df /media/mint/201 | sort -nk
[15:38] <graps> Guest36154: Actually, if the k-block is position 5, then it would be: df /media/mnt/201 | sort -nk 5
[15:39] <EriC^^> graps: /join #df
[15:39] <EriC^^> j/k
[15:39] <graps> EriC^^: Hehe
[15:40] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ n graps, "df /media/mint/201" in other term returns "df: 'media/mint/201': No such file or directory". Is my syntax off? I know UNIveXrse is anal about spaces n punctuation marks..
[15:40] <EriC^^> Guest36154: you're missing the leading "/"
[15:40] <EriC^^> type df -h to make it easier to see the size
[15:40] <graps> Guest36154: Yes, acc. to EriC^^
[15:42] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, so "/df/media/mint/201" no spaces??
[15:42] <graps> Guest36154: Almost. "df -h /media/mint/201"
[15:43] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, trying that command now..
[15:44] <k1l> Guest36154: details matter! if someone already spoonfeeds the command to you dont change it. if it is " a -x /b/d" dont make it "a/x/b/d" that is not working that way.
[15:46] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, exact command used: df -h /media/mint/201 , as typed into other term returns the complaint that there is no such directory, but the term puts some colons in there.. What is "df" is should i check out the man page?
[15:47] <graps> Guest36154: You might be mistyping "mnt" versus "mint"
[15:48] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, used "Q" to get back to original all RED files of the /home/toshibauser files.. am going to try an get to the 500 GB storage device..
[15:49] <Guest36154> graps. correct.. did that 2 of the first 5 tries
[15:49] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, n going to try the "C" multiple files..
[15:50] <EriC^^> Guest36154: choose some important file to test
[15:50] <EriC^^> and save it anywhere
[15:52] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, not sure which of you suggested arrow keys.. the scroll of the chat is pretty fast an re-reading takes fumble finger miskeys hence my request on how to fix the window previously to just see what was sent to me.. am going to try the selected file trick "C"opy now
[15:54] <EriC^^> ok
[15:56] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, have Mulitples Selected(turned Green).. Am trying to find the 500 Gb attached drive.. but it still stops at the "/mint" usb key directory hive
[15:57] <graps> Guest36154: Did you try searching /media ?
[15:58] <graps> KiazakiVagyok: Hi
[15:58] <KiazakiVagyok> hi
[15:58] <orion> Hi. When I run: "du -a . | sort -n -r | head -n 10" with bash I get this error: "sort: Illegal byte sequence" How do I fix this?
[15:58] <graps> KiazakiVagyok: Are you Hungarian ?
[15:59] <KiazakiVagyok> Yes
[15:59] <KiazakiVagyok> azaz igen :)
[15:59] <KiazakiVagyok> Te?
[15:59] <KiazakiVagyok> And you?
[15:59] <Guest36154> graps n ERiC^^, when i use arrow keys to go down to the media selection of the "Directory /", it only gives me the options of".."." "mint" "cdrom"
[15:59] <graps> KiazakiVagyok: Oh, okay. I studied the language a little bit...Magyar, that is
[16:00] <KiazakiVagyok> graps: Hard language :)
[16:01] <graps> KiazakiVagyok: Yes ! But the women are beautiful ;)
[16:01] <KiazakiVagyok> graps: yes it's true
[16:01] <EriC^^> Guest36154: if you open the file manager can you see the 500gb in /media/mint?
[16:02] <KiazakiVagyok> graps: where are you living?
[16:02] <graps> KiazakiVagyok: I'm in San Diego, California. And you ?
[16:02] <KiazakiVagyok> Hungary Békéscsaba
[16:02] <lotuspsychje> !ot | KiazakiVagyok graps
[16:02] <s_n> hey again. i followed http://linux-debugger-bits.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/bash-symbols.html to install these bash dbg symbols.
[16:03] <graps> ubottu: Sorry :)
[16:03] <s_n> unfortunately it failed to find symbols on sudo apt-get install bash-dbgsym=4.2-5ubuntu3
[16:03] <s_n> of course i have changed the "4.2-5ubuntu3" bit
[16:03] <s_n> to the currently installed one
[16:03] <KiazakiVagyok> graps: http://mail.bekescsaba.hu:8080/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi?resolution=1024x768&compression=50&dummy=1419059664427
[16:03] <KiazakiVagyok> here
[16:04] <lotuspsychje> KiazakiVagyok: not here please, you can use the offtopic channel
[16:04] <s_n> any ideas how to check if/what symbols are for bash/other pkgs in these ddebs repos?
[16:04] <KiazakiVagyok> ok.
[16:04] <Guest36154> ERiC^^ YESS, opened it up an have both the 10.04 ised n the 17.2 side of the 500Gb available via the GUI.. How do I find them in the testdisk term, or do i go through the other term???
[16:04] <s_n> ok. browser does just fine
[16:05] <lotuspsychje> s_n: you can use apt-cache search keyword to search packages if you like
[16:05] <graps> KiazakiVagyok: Thanks, I'll check that out
[16:05] <EriC^^> Guest36154: ok, in testdisk press c then press left arrow twice
[16:05] <EriC^^> Guest36154: go to /media/ then the user etc
[16:06] <graps> kiazakiVagyok: Is it a .avi or .mov file ?
[16:06] <s_n> lotuspsychje: yes. nothing for bash these though
[16:06] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, the file manager also sees my 256 GB flash i put in to test if i could get to it.. going to do the "arrow twice " now
[16:06] <s_n> s/these/there
[16:06] <KiazakiVagyok> graps: some kind of streaming format.
[16:06] <valleycat> just tried to dual boot my new laptop with ubuntu and it's not showing up in the boot menu, what do I need to do for it to show up?
[16:07] <graps> KiazakiVagyok: Okay. Do you have a question for the Ubuntu channel ?
[16:07] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, there they are!! but they are all in RED?? Is this how I get the selected files to be copied??
[16:07] <EriC^^> Guest36154: just highlight one file, and press "c" ( small case not capital )
[16:08] <DevAntoine> I'm lost with ACL. It's the first time I use LVM thus I don't know where to set my acl. I've found it's in /etc/mtab but there such a huge number of lines! I don't know how to read this file
[16:09] <DevAntoine> is it my root line?
[16:09] <skinux> My FSTAB has SWAP commented out, with another line indicating CryptSWAP. If I comment out Cryptswap line and uncomment normal SWAP, will my system use SWAP again?
[16:09] <EriC^^> skinux: it'll probably add another cryptswap entry
[16:09] <EriC^^> is it 15.10?
[16:10] <DevAntoine> or should I put my acl on fstab?
[16:10] <Egyptian[Web]> hi - will this command - sudo apt-get purge linux-image-x.x.x.x-generic - also remove the dependencies like headers ?
[16:10] <EriC^^> Egyptian[Web]: no
[16:11] <Egyptian[Web]> EriC^^: how do i tell it to remove dependencies too?
[16:11] <k1l> Egyptian[Web]: no. list the packages with "dpkg -l | grep linux-headers"
[16:12] <graps> brb
[16:12] <Egyptian[Web]> i am looking to write  (or find ) a script that will purge all old kernels
[16:12] <EriC^^> there was a script somebody posted today
[16:12] <k1l> Egyptian[Web]: you are too late. its already done :)
[16:13] <k1l> Egyptian[Web]: what ubuntu are you on?
[16:13] <k1l> Egyptian[Web]: this is a bash one-liner: dpkg --list | grep 'linux-headers' | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -V | sed -n '/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\([0-9.-]*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/q;p' | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge
[16:14] <SCHAAP137> anyone have issues updating libpam-runtime on 14.04? getting a dpkg error
[16:14] <k1l> with changing linux-headers to linux-image it will work for kernels
[16:14] <skinux> EriC^^: Then how do I get Ubuntu to start using SWAP again?
[16:15] <toomanyerrors> ok
[16:15] <chrisw957> gstreamer
[16:15] <jatin30> I am having trouble running       sudo dpkg -i linux-image-3.0.0-rc3-xia_05_amd64.deb   I am getting this http://imgur.com/yiyjk8Z
[16:15] <EriC^^> skinux: why don't you get it working with the cryptswap?
[16:15] <skinux> Only because I don't know how.
[16:15] <SCHAAP137> ah, fixed the libpam-runtime package upgrade issue, by just doing sudo apt-get install -f
[16:15] <toomanyerrors> just installed unity 8 from apt on 14.04 how do i start using it
[16:15] <SCHAAP137> on 14.04
[16:16] <k1l> jatin30: any reason you install that with a .deb package?
[16:16] <skinux> Why does it even need to encrypt SWAP anyway?
[16:16] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, SERIOUS question.. In arrowing around i found my Music directory.. over 150 files.. BUT some are in RED, others are in WHITE.. If i cycle through other dir's on the 1 Tb,seeing RED or WHITE.. THE RED signifies files that are somehow harmed or questionable due to the Win 7 attempt?? Therefore the RED ones are still recoverable but A) have to find a place to put them(external or on the flash if I can force testdisk to see it
[16:16] <Guest36154>  AND B)can then work on an obvious(by now) reformat n "Clean install" of Win 7??
[16:16] <jatin30> kll: I am installing linux XIA for which its part of instructions
[16:17] <Braybaut> skinux, you need encrypt swap partitions ?
[16:17] <k1l> skinux: because if you use swap it will be plaintext and could be used to decrypt your data.
[16:17] <toomanyerrors> guys
[16:17] <toomanyerrors> how do i start using unity8?
[16:17] <EriC^^> Guest36154: yeah red usually means they can't be recovered
[16:17] <toomanyerrors> i installed using apt-get install unity8
[16:17] <k1l> jatin30: does "ls -al" list those files?
[16:18] <Egyptian[Web]> k1l: so thats one liner is sufficient to purge kernel and dependencies? what about it picking up linux-generic ?
[16:18] <toomanyerrors> with all the dependencies
[16:18] <k1l> toomanyerrors: why didnt you use the lxc install i linked you?
[16:18] <Guest36154> ERiC^^. for REAL??????
[16:18] <toomanyerrors> i tried
[16:18] <EriC^^> Guest36154: if you had a way of backing up the entire drive, it would be WAY easier just to let testdisk rewrite the extended partition stuff
[16:18] <toomanyerrors> i didnt understand how to
[16:19] <toomanyerrors> i dont even know what an lxc is
[16:19] <EriC^^> basically it will just say this partition is extended and has these 3 partitions in it, and then you can attempt to mount it as usual ( maybe that's all windows did was erase them from the partition table )
[16:19] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, is that the "dd" thing you mentioned a whilw age?
[16:19] <Guest36154> while ago
[16:19] <EriC^^> Guest36154: but i've never recovered an extended partition like that before and if you could backup that would be better
[16:19] <EriC^^> Guest36154: yes, exactly
[16:19] <k1l> jatin30: you need to specific the /path/to/the/kernel.deb or you need to go to the folder before with cd.
[16:19] <EriC^^> dd will copy the entire hdd bit for bit, so you can always get to where you're at right now in case testdisk doesn't work out
[16:19] <k1l> jatin30: it cant find the .deb files, that is the error
[16:20] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, so what does "dd" stand for and does it "image" the whole Drive or just the data??
[16:20] <EriC^^> it images the whole drive, from 0 sector to the last, ( mbr and partition table etc included ) and it doesn't understand data, it just copies at a very low level
[16:20] <jatin30> k1l: I just found those files in ls -al in red but just with a better version I'll try to fix that Thanks
[16:21] <EriC^^> i think it's disk dump or who knows i've heard other names
[16:21] <ubuntu-mate> yo
[16:21] <Guest36154> ERi
[16:22] <ubuntu-mate> hey bros
[16:22] <Egyptian[Web]> k1l: official ubuntu docs says to use  dpkg -l | tail -n +6 | grep -E 'linux-image-[0-9]+' | grep -Fv $(uname -r) ;) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels#Safely_removing_old_kernels
[16:23] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, (miskey) so thats why the whole other 1 Tb idea could work..If the file is in RED is the "Entry" is still there but the Win 7 attempt may have harmed it somehow??
[16:23] <k1l> Egyptian[Web]: there are several different ways to script that.
[16:24] <k1l> Egyptian[Web]: there is also purge-old-kernels  in bikeshed. that is used since 15.04 as standard on new kernel installs
[16:24] <EriC^^> Guest36154: i dont know, it could just be a file you deleted long ago
[16:24] <EriC^^> Guest36154: i doubt windows did anything to the files, i think it just removed the 2 partitions
[16:27] <Guest36154> ERiC^^,(we were typing at the same time)no the files are current but i just looked through some other entries.. Songs that are definitely seriously different have the same "4096" length... Could that have been Win 7 making a whole bunch of sectors where it doesn't belong,n then trying to use Rescatux to attempt repair of "MBR"
[16:27] <EriC^^> Guest36154: i'll try to create an extended partition on my hdd and delete it and see if testdisk recovers it or can see it fine
[16:27] <EriC^^> oh i cant in gpt
[16:28] <EriC^^> maybe i'll try it in a vm
[16:28] <skinux> Okay, well...how do I get cryptswap to work?
[16:29] <skinux> I read about a bug that makes cryptswap not work after hibernation, which I'm guessing may have happened during the night after I had locked the desktop.
[16:29] <skinux> Has that bug ever been fixed?
[16:30] <crond> eh?
[16:30] <crond> my swap is encrypted, works fine
[16:30] <crond> i can sleep, etc.
[16:31] <EriC^^> Guest36154: 4096 are usually the size of dirs
[16:32] <graps> I'm back
[16:32] <skinux> atop says there is 0 SWAP, so obviously it's not workign
[16:34] <skinux> Wait, even with CryptSWAP, shouldn't GPArted recognize the SWAP partition as SWAP?
[16:34] <crond> skinux, I didn't have to do anything but specify the partiton as swap and
[16:34] <Guest36154> ERiC^^, (typing at same time again, heheh) Yes that appears to be so because the 4096's have their songs in them, even if they are RED 4096's they still turn WHITE when i check them out.. THought: ubuntu mate n linux mate use different file structures don't they?? i think I used Gparted to make the Linux mate a ext4 n the Ubunt mate a ext3 type, if i remember correct.. I do not comprehend the vm or gpt comments..  are you going to
[16:34] <Guest36154>  do that now or just thinking aloud??
[16:35] <EriC^^> Guest36154: ok, i've booted a vm and made some extended partitions
[16:35] <crond> skinux, and have an fstab entry
[16:35] <crond>  /dev/mapper/xubuntu--vg-swap_1 none            swap    sw              0       0
[16:35] <skinux> crond: Well, that's usually how it works, but in my case it doesn't seem ot be working like that
