[00:00] <gubers> but the sources are exsist in the ubuntu site unter http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/
[00:01] <gubers> i just need to set it in the installetion.
[00:01] <bekks> gubers: 6.06 is EOL.
[00:01] <bekks> gubers: No chance to install it.
[00:01] <bekks> gubers: Did you try installing 12.04?
[00:01] <gubers> i tried 10.04 - to new for me.
[00:02] <ikonia> "too new"
[00:02] <ikonia> in what way ?
[00:02] <ikonia> (10.04 is also EOL)
[00:02] <bekks> gubers: Why? Which exact error messages did you get?
[00:02] <gubers> ollllld computer.
[00:02] <ikonia> stop saying that
[00:02] <ikonia> answer the questions
[00:02] <ikonia> "what was the problem with 10.04"
[00:03] <daftykins> 10.04 server is good for 2 more months :D
[00:03] <gubers> it's stay and wait....
[00:04] <ikonia> I've just lost interest in pulling information
[00:04] <daftykins> gubers: either offer a system specification or you are unlikely to get help
[00:04] <bekks> Me too.
[00:04] <gubers> i dont need security support it is a locale system.
[00:04] <ubuntulivesorrow> been trying for the last hour to mount a hard drive in Ubuntu 14.04 live via USB drive booting, my paste: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10133617/
[00:05] <ubuntulivesorrow> does not mount with read/write access, only read-only
[00:05] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: "sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sda5"
[00:06] <daftykins> you probably need to fsck it
[00:06] <gubers> i can't install it without the internet??
[00:08] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, that worked with no errors, but what is the default mount path?
[00:09] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: you must have already mounted it, since it was complaining. the error you pastebin'd was saying *exactly* what was wrong. "df -h" to confirm what is where, or "mount"
[00:10] <ubuntulivesorrow> yea, I have succeeded in mounting it many times, just with no r/w
[00:11] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: yep so you didn't need to tell it where to mount to anymore, just that you wanted that mount point "-o remount,rw"
[00:11] <marsje> editing my fstab gave me a "no space left on device" and my fstab is 0 bytes now :(
[00:12] <daftykins> marsje: impressive, are you still booted in?
[00:12] <marsje> daftykins: no...
[00:12] <daftykins> so your installation is lost to you, right now?
[00:12] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, brb, I messed up something now I cannot umount, restarting this liveCD session
[00:13] <daftykins> marsje: boot a live session and you can recover it by checking free space, then writing a new fstab if it really is gone
[00:13] <marsje> daftykins: I guess it won't boot with a zeroed fstab, right?
[00:14] <marsje> daftykins: I put the drive in my desktop system now, so I can access the drive
[00:15] <daftykins> marsje: hmm, ok - you can write a new fstab by using "sudo blkid" to view the UUIDs of each partition, then recreating them in a custom fstab if you can work out which is which
[00:16] <marsje> daftykins: uuids suck when you are in a console where you cannot use a mouse...
[00:16] <daftykins> hahaha
[00:17] <daftykins> true, although if you were to write out blkid into a text file, you could edit them in-place without too much trouble
[00:17] <marsje> daftykins: I made a screenshot (with my camera), so I have all the info
[00:17] <marsje> but I'm thinking about reinstalling the whole system as it was old
[00:18] <marsje> the only problem was that it was a carefully configured xbmc to work with my not so well supported ati video card
[00:18] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, I am back, so... I am in a freshly booted liveCD session, have not attempted any mount commands... what did you say is the best way to mount my /dev/sda5 ('/home' parition FYI) with write permission?
[00:18] <marsje> that only seemed to work well with an older ubuntu
[00:19] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: well lets start from the beginning, why are you doing this?
[00:19] <daftykins> marsje: eww, old AMD card huh? also now it's Kodi :(
[00:20] <marsje> daftykins: yeah, so I'd like to install a afresh kodi, but I doubt my video card will work well
[00:20] <daftykins> marsje: which is it?
[00:21] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins,  I am about to install ubuntu to the HDD, I do not want to have the overwrite/format my home partition, I want to delete the .config folder and other folders with settings that will interfere with the new install, and I wanted to remove them with a LiveCD while the OS is not running
[00:21] <marsje> daftykins: I forgot... one that doesn't have support anymore in the latest radeon drivers
[00:21] <marsje> daftykins: and I doubt the new open source drivers will support it, but haven't checked
[00:22] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: rename of /home/username to /home/usernameold would make far more sense. so yeah, "sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda5 /mnt" assuming it's sda5
[00:22] <marsje> "working" meaning having hardware accelerated video
[00:22] <daftykins> marsje: actually when it comes to XBMC/Kodi - radeon the open source driver is the best choice. anything 4xxx or older is unsupported by fglrx, yes
[00:23] <marsje> daftykins: maybe I should give it a try... tomorrow :)
[00:23] <lasagn4> do any of you know how I grep so I get only the second word of each line and to skip the rest of the words on each line?
[00:23] <marsje> too bad I'm still completely in the dark why my ubuntu insists my drive is full while it doesn't look at all full
[00:25] <daftykins> lasagn4: nope, but if nobody gives a clue here, #bash might be helpful
[00:25] <stairway> Hello
[00:25] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, tried the line, results: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10133926/
[00:26] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, still no r/w access : /
[00:26]  * marsje is going to get some sleep
[00:26] <stairway> new ubuntu user here.
[00:26] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: no you've got that all wrong.
[00:27] <ubuntulivesorrow> ?
[00:27] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "ls -al /mnt | pastebinit"
[00:29] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10133988/
[00:31] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: yeah, see right now it doesn't recognise the user that was from that install, because it's a live session. from inside /mnt/user/, try "sudo mv .config .configold"
[00:31] <daftykins> never delete, rename is far more safe
[00:31] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, ok cool, brb
[00:31] <incognito2> Hi, Can someone help me find the solution to my problem? I got the big red dot in my gnome panel and I got this error message in synaptic and/or apt-get: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10133475/
[00:32] <incognito2> Red dot with a minus sign in it
[00:32] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, nope, still receive a "permission denied"
[00:32] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, do I have to run a 'chown'?
[00:34] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: i wouldn't think so, but you could try.
[00:36] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, I cannot create directories either in that path: '/mnt/user'
[00:37] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, is there an argument for the mount command to r/w the device I am mounting?
[00:37] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: mount -o remount,rw <mountpoint>
[00:37] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: you don't even KNOW that it's read only right now. "mount | pastebinit" before running anything further
[00:38] <TheNet> does dropping all ports that aren't in use in iptables offer any protection?
[00:39] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10134144/
[00:40] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: yeah see, it's already rw
[00:40] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, son of a gun...
[00:40] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, well now I am growing gray hair over the fact I cannot actually 'write' or remove a few files
[00:41] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: it looks like a permissions problem? i've not read what you were writing before though..
[00:41] <MortezaE>  hi, i want to set such a wifi connection on my computer, that i can connect to it and transfer some files to it trought FTP. I have nothing to do with internet. What should i search in google? AP Hotspot?
[00:41] <ubuntulivesorrow> EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10133988/
[00:42] <MortezaE> (I wanna connect to my pc by mobile and sent files to it)
[00:42] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: sudo chown -R root: /mnt/
[00:42] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: that's ls -l /mnt ?
[00:43] <ubuntulivesorrow> EriC^^, yes
[00:43] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: what are you doing to get the permissions error?
[00:43] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, going to try and run that command
[00:43] <daftykins> i suggested ubuntulivesorrow run "sudo mv" on some file or folder, i forget which
[00:43] <daftykins> EriC^^: ^
[00:43] <daftykins> be right back
[00:43] <ubuntulivesorrow> EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10133926/ I ran 'rm -rf <file>'
[00:43] <EriC^^> daftykins: ok
[00:44] <ubuntulivesorrow> daftykins, ok
[00:44] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: type sudo rm -rf <file>
[00:45] <incognito2> Hi, Can someone help me find the solution to my problem? I got the big red dot with a big white minus sign in it in my gnome panel and I got this error message in synaptic and/or apt-get: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10133475/
[00:46] <ubuntulivesorrow> EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10134214/   to my surprise, that did not work either
[00:46] <daftykins> incognito2: whilst i'm gone, have a look if that file exists.
[00:47] <k1l_> incognito2: open a terminal and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade". the error sign just says it had a problem with the updates from the ubuntu servers
[00:47] <incognito2> Thanks guys
[00:47] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: type chmod u+x /mnt/user/.xsel.log
[00:48] <EriC^^> nevermind
[00:48] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: wait, you didn't do sudo rm -rf
[00:49] <ubuntulivesorrow> EriC^^, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10134245/
[00:49] <incognito2> kll I don't think I can upgrade because it's 12.04. I will try sudo apt-get update, but I don't know if I can run dist-upgrade
[00:50] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: type sudo rm -rf /mnt/user/.xsel.log
[00:50] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: add sudo to the start of the command
[00:50] <k1l_> incognito2: the 2nd command will not upgrade the ubuntu release. its need to ship all package updates for 12.04 like new kernels etc.
[00:50] <k1l_> !distupgrade
[00:51] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: actually just type sudo rm /mnt/user/.xsel.log
[00:51] <ubuntulivesorrow> EriC^^, finally!! after like two hours, I can now delete, thank you and daftykins thank you also
[00:51] <ubuntulivesorrow> the sudo worked
[00:51] <EriC^^> ubuntulivesorrow: is that your home directory?
[00:51] <ubuntulivesorrow> so after I reinstall, chown those files back?
[00:51] <EriC^^> yes
[00:52] <ubuntulivesorrow> EriC^^, yes, that is my /home I mounted
[00:52] <esantos3> hello. i am  new here i have a question
[00:53] <ardan_>  /join #nomads
[00:54] <daftykins> ubuntulivesorrow: my pleasure!
[00:54] <daftykins> EriC^^: ^5 go team :D
[00:54] <EriC^^> daftykins: ^5 :D
[00:55] <incognito2> kll thanks, okay. Yeah I did google the problem and found that solution before I came to the chat room, but I was afraid to run it, so now I am confident to run it at your recommendation
[00:56] <Audio> what can I do with the foloing error? how to repair my sound?
[00:56] <Audio> # amixer -D pulse sset Master 50%
[00:56] <Audio> ALSA lib control.c:953:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL pulse
[00:56] <Audio> amixer: Mixer attach pulse error: No such file or directory
[00:56] <ubuntulivesorrow> EriC^^, daftykins I will be sure to come back after I am fully re-installed but under my regular IRC name of "JargonNode" ...working on my Linux LPIC-1 certification, so I will be able to be of help too one day soon, you guys rock
[00:57] <incognito2> daftykins yes that file exists. I will go ahead and run the command kll suggested and will report back.
[00:57] <daftykins> sounds good
[00:59] <incognito2> kll after running those commands ( I did it all in one line just like you wrote it ) I get the same error message.
[00:59] <k1l_> can you pastebin?
[01:00] <incognito2> kll this is the error I'm getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/10133475/
[01:00] <k1l_> incognito2: and its possible the mirror server you get connected to just hangs in between a update and that will be fixed after some time. or you switch mirrors if you want it asap or the issue is there on next day
[01:02] <incognito2> kll okay, so if I google "how to switch mirror server for ubuntu updates," then I can find what you are talking about. Right?
[01:03] <EriC^^> incognito2: open the dash and type software & updates, change the mirror
[01:04] <k1l_> incognito2: on system settings .> updates and software and then there
[01:04] <incognito2> EriC^^ Thanks. I use gnome, but you have given me enough info to find it
[01:04] <incognito2> kll thanks for your help
[01:06] <k1l_> should be the same on gnome.
[01:09] <failfarm> hello, is it feasable to get a debloated version of ubuntu? IE: minus all laptop & wireless packages, printers, bluetooth, amazon, ect/
[01:09] <somsip> !minimal | failfarm
[01:11] <k1l_> failfarm: start from the minimal and install what you need. yes
[01:11] <k1l_> failfarm: with some more research and effort you could even remove there more stuff you dont want
[01:12] <kaleo_> hello
[01:12] <MortezaE> how to find my wireless driver address?
[01:13] <incognito2> kll actually it's not the same on gnome, but when I switched to unity it wasn't there either. So I realized that it's probly because it 12.04. I wondering if I can get that file with wget?
[01:13] <daftykins> MortezaE: 'address' of a driver? what do you mean? :)
[01:13] <MortezaE> i mean it's /dev/ address daftykins :)
[01:14] <EriC^^> incognito2: it should be in settings in 12.04 as well
[01:14] <daftykins> hmm, can't say i've ever considered such a thing.
[01:14] <EriC^^> incognito2: if you type software-properties-gtk in the terminal does it open?
[01:15] <takkun> hi could someone help me install Ubuntu on windows 8
[01:15] <daftykins> takkun: 'on' - you mean beside? dualboot?
[01:15] <incognito2> Eric^^ yes thanks.
[01:16] <takkun> daftykins: yes dafty. my teacher would like me to dual boot
[01:16] <takkun> daftykins: I remember attempting to install it a few months back, and things went horribly wrong D:
[01:16] <daftykins> ...teacher?
[01:17] <daftykins> takkun: so what has happened since then? has this system been reinstalled, or is there a mess to deal with?
[01:18] <takkun> daftykins: yes, I am a Comp Sci Major and taking a Linux Programming class. Um Since then I have gotten the system factory restored. So its like brand new.
[01:18] <daftykins> takkun: alright, where are you now? in Windows?
[01:19] <takkun> daftykins: yes, i currently have windows 8.1 installed. and I have 2 partitions. My main partition which contains the OS, and a 2nd one which holds the system recovery for my laptop.
[01:20] <daftykins> takkun: yep, so you need to resize the Windows C: to leave enough space for an Ubuntu partition(s) after it
[01:20] <daftykins> takkun: run diskmgmt.msc and share a screenshot of what you see
[01:20] <daftykins> !paste | takkun
[01:23] <sp3ck> hi, is there a way to create a software RAID 0, with one disk and add the second disk later?
[01:23] <larry_1975> New to Ubuntu 14.04 - Does anyone know if Cedega will work on this? Mine is x64. I tried to install earlier today and it corrupted my Software Center.
[01:23] <daftykins> !pm | kaleo_
[01:23] <daftykins> sp3ck: nope, do it propery first time.
[01:23] <daftykins> *properly too
[01:23] <takkun> daftykins: hey dafty, here is a screen shot. http://imgur.com/f8DsUZK
[01:23] <daftykins> sp3ck: also, RAID 0 is striping - maybe you meant RAID 1
[01:24] <sp3ck> daftykins, yeap sry i meant 1
[01:24] <xangua> takkun: you can use your tab key to autocomplete names
[01:24] <incognito2> EriC^^ is there a way to revert back to the default mirror after I change it. I cannot tell which mirror it is using.  I was hopping on this wild guess...
[01:26] <takkun> daftykins: how would i do that?
[01:26] <EriC^^> takkun: search in windows for recovery disks
[01:26] <daftykins> takkun: there might be some kind of Lenovo program installed for recovery disc creation, does this laptop/desktop have a DVD drive? usually they can create DVDs or ISOs for it
[01:27] <takkun> daftykins: Oh i know what you're talking about. Unfortunately Lenovo does not provide such a program. I have called them and asked for some Cd. But they were charging 70 dollars. So I didn't get them.
[01:28] <EriC^^> takkun: they don't give dvd's anymore, but you can make your own
[01:28] <EriC^^> it's that last 20gb partition
[01:28] <daftykins> takkun: ah ok, hmm it's quite annoying when dealing with a system like that - there are so many messy partitions there
[01:29] <takkun> EriC^^: The program that daftykins is talking about is unfortunately not available for my laptop.
[01:29] <EriC^^> takkun: open the search in windows and type recovery , you should get recovery usb and recovery dvd and other apps
[01:29] <daftykins> EriC^^: were it me i'd be tempted to delete the D:, then the two 450MB chunks then resize C: - but we don't know what they might do :( so perhaps resizing C: is the only idea
[01:30] <takkun> daftykins: Yeah, im not sure why so many partitions exist to be honest. But it is the default setting.
[01:30] <daftykins> i know, OEM windows 8 is messy
[01:31] <EriC^^> daftykins: if he can make the recovery dvd's that'd be great, otherwise he can still manually recovery later using the .wim file in the recovery partition
[01:31] <daftykins> EriC^^: mmm, to be honest i'd sooner link to the Microsoft page that allows download of a Windows 8 image
[01:31] <EriC^^> ( which he might have to do cause as you know the recovery program is going to get picky about the partition table getting modified )
[01:32] <daftykins> takkun: so what will you be doing with Ubuntu? development you said? we need to estimate what kind of disk space you'll want with it before resizing
[01:33] <daftykins> takkun: maybe try making yourself up a Windows reinstall disc before proceeding - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media
[01:33] <EriC^^> daftykins: those iso's are pretty hard, i tried a dozen and ended up using my wim file, but i guess it's cause my windows edition is rarer than US versions etc.
[01:34] <takkun> daftykins: Couldn't i pick the install along side windows 8 option? As for what I'll be doing. Tbh I think I might need a fair bit of space. The professor actually recommended we install fedora. Because he said it comes prepackaged with a lot of useful things that we will need for class.
[01:34] <daftykins> ah, obscure language? :)
[01:34] <EriC^^> daftykins: nah it's in english but it's just called differently for developing countries, core single lang or something , so none of the isos online would work
[01:35] <daftykins> takkun: well, it depends if you want to keep making use of that recovery partition then. personally, i'd nuke it since i'm comfortable with obtaining (well i already have) working windows 8 media
[01:35] <stairway> I need some help adding a server
[01:35] <daftykins> "adding a server" is a very broad statement
[01:36] <stairway> I'm using x chat gnome
[01:36] <takkun> daftykins: What exactly does the program you linked do? Create an ISo of my C drive or give me a plain old windows 8.1 iso
[01:36] <daftykins> stairway: #freenode would be better for IRC client support
[01:37] <daftykins> takkun: well i actually haven't used this one, but a friend recommended it :) i figured it downloads it, not sure
[01:37] <daftykins> takkun: you can't just install beside no, you need to at the very least resize C: first
[01:38] <daftykins> Windows 8 gets very angry if you resize its' drive and you haven't safely rebooted out of Windows 8 first
[01:39] <takkun> daftykins: One of the core problems I was having when i first attempted this is that, I could only boot into Ubuntu if i turned off UEFI mode, and used Legacy, but this would make it so i could no longer boot into Windows. So i would constantly have to switch back and forth.
[01:39] <EriC^^> takkun: why couldn't you boot ubuntu with uefi?
[01:39] <daftykins> takkun: sounds like you need to resolve UEFI booting a flash drive of 14.04 first, then
[01:40] <Diana> hii
[01:40] <takkun> every time i attempted to install Ubuntu with UEFI the Usb or Cd would boot, but then remain at a black screen forever.
[01:40] <Guest85448> mi first time in Ubuntu
[01:40] <daftykins> takkun: sounds like your graphics hardware requires...
[01:41] <daftykins> !nomodeset | takkun
[01:41] <daftykins> Guest85448: neat, this is an OS support channel only - #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat :)
[01:41] <daftykins> ugh.
[01:42] <bennypr0fane> Hey guys, if I wanna remove all files with the ending .v1 from the curretn directory and its subdirs, will this command work:  rm -r *.v1
[01:42] <EriC^^> no
[01:43] <EriC^^> find . -iname "*.v1" -exec rm '{}' \;
[01:43] <bennypr0fane> EriC^^: why not?
[01:43] <bennypr0fane> ugh, what's that
[01:43] <bennypr0fane> will it also work for sub-subdirectories?
[01:43] <somsip> bennypr0fane: find all files recursively from the current dir and whith each path execute rm on it
[01:44] <bennypr0fane> wow, so the find command can call other commands itself?
[01:44] <somsip> bennypr0fane: the -exec bit
[01:45] <bennypr0fane> what's the '{}'\; seems like specifying a lot
[01:45] <somsip> bennypr0fane: refers to the 'with the path of the found item' bit
[01:45] <bennypr0fane> I'm just asking bcs I'f like to try and understand the command a bit before I run it
[01:46] <somsip> bennypr0fane: run with ls instead of rm first to see the effect
[01:47] <failfarm> what version is the current nvida driver ubuntu uses? could i install a newer version say like 346.35
[01:47] <daftykins> failfarm: only from manual download or a PPA
[01:47] <bennypr0fane> somsip: great idea, will do
[01:47] <daftykins> i believe 331 is the latest nvidia driver in-repos
[01:47] <daftykins> !find nvidia-
[01:47] <somsip> bennypr0fane: other options than ls, but that's usually good enough for a sanity check
[01:47] <failfarm> daftykins: does that install along side the additional drivers or no?
[01:47] <daftykins> failfarm: does what?
[01:48] <failfarm> excuse me let me word that better
[01:48] <daftykins> failfarm: what card do you have, why are you after 346?
[01:48] <DerekBerchtold> dsfasdrvxc
[01:48] <failfarm> 346 for opengl 4.5support and a 6804gig
[01:48] <daftykins> failfarm: 6804gig? what?
[01:48] <failfarm> daftykins: i wanted to know if i install a newer driver would it show up in the additional drivers apt or no
[01:49] <bennypr0fane> OMG that took only like 2 seconds!
[01:49] <failfarm> msi gtx 680 4gig edition
[01:49] <bennypr0fane> even though it was A LOT of files...
[01:49] <bennypr0fane> Thanks, EriC^^!
[01:49] <EriC^^> np
[01:49] <DerekBerchtold> Does anyone how to connect this client with Twitch TV?
[01:50] <daftykins> failfarm: waste of time trying to get a newer driver than 331 for that. so you want to know if manually installing a driver will allow it to appear in the options window offering drivers? that's a bit of an egg and chicken situation no? :)
[01:50] <daftykins> DerekBerchtold: "this client" ?
[01:50] <daftykins> DerekBerchtold: IRC has nothing to do with twitch
[01:50] <DerekBerchtold> yep
[01:50] <daftykins> define "this client"
[01:50] <DerekBerchtold> Uhhhh
[01:51] <DerekBerchtold> XChat - GNOME
[01:51] <daftykins> yeah, xchat has nothing to do with twitch.tv
[01:51] <daftykins> unless you're asking if they have a chat channel
[01:51] <somsip> DerekBerchtold: http://teamfortress.tv/thread/719/tutorial-connecting-to-twitch-tv-via-xchat-mirc/?page=1#10
[01:51] <somsip> daftykins: apparently there is some bridge. ^^^
[01:52] <DerekBerchtold> I need to get a IRC client that can connect to a Twitch channel on Lenix
[01:52] <somsip> DerekBerchtold: I've given you a link, but that's all the help you'll get here. Ask in the twitchtv support channel
[01:52] <DerekBerchtold> okay
[01:52] <DerekBerchtold> thank you
[01:53] <failfarm> daftykins: I was just wondering. I was thinking of switching from fedora to ubuntu mate. I currently have driver 346.35 which gives me access to opengl 4.5, 4.5 has some newer tools that make my life easier
[01:54] <DarwinSurvivor> I'm trying to PXE install ubuntu 14.10 (amd64) but can't get the installer to connect to the network
[01:54] <daftykins> failfarm: then with ubuntu you would install the driver manually from nvidia's website, or you would add a PPA that provides it such as xorg-edgers :) all of this would be manual though
[01:54] <DarwinSurvivor> The PXE part works fine, but I get a "network autoconfiguration failed". I've tried bringing the interface up manually and even setting static ip/dns to no avail
[01:56] <daftykins> DarwinSurvivor: sounds like you're not running a DHCP server
[01:58] <DarwinSurvivor> daftykins: PXE (which requires both DHCP and TFTP) work fine and all my others devices connect to my dhcp server
[01:58] <DarwinSurvivor> daftykins: also, even setting static IP does not work (cannot ping *anything*)
[02:00] <incognito2> EriC^^ kll thanks guys, problem solved. Will document the problem so I don't have to come back here and ask.
[02:00] <nicomachus> When I'm configuring SSH, do I set the "listen address" to the source PC or target PC?
[02:00] <daftykins> DarwinSurvivor: oh well, no experience of that
[02:01] <DarwinSurvivor> michael_mbp: the IP address of the SSH server you are configuring
[02:01] <DarwinSurvivor> michael_mbp: you can also tell it to listen to an interface instead of an IP (which helps if your IP might change)
[02:01] <azizLIGHT> how can i measure my logged in time?
[02:01] <nicomachus> why are you typing michael_mbp?
[02:01] <Fuwie> Hi guys, I need some help. In Ubuntu 12 my bluetooth worked fine, I upgraded to 14.04 now and it isn't working anymore. Any help?
[02:02] <MortezaE> Hi, how to find my wireless card's driver name?
[02:02] <DarwinSurvivor> daftykins: I found this http://askubuntu.com/questions/459721/14-04-server-pxe-installation-fails-at-configure-the-network-page but neither the biosdevname nor /etc/network/interfaces edits helped
[02:03] <daftykins> azizLIGHT: get used to writing it down :P
[02:03] <Fuwie> Anyone???
[02:03] <nicomachus> DarwinSurvivor: MAC address too?
[02:04] <Fuwie> Hi guys, I need some help. In Ubuntu 12 my bluetooth worked fine, I upgraded to 14.04 now and it isn't working anymore. Any help?
[02:04] <somsip> !patience | Fuwie
[02:05] <daftykins> yeah we saw the first time, Fuwie :)
[02:06] <DarwinSurvivor> nicomachus: what about the MAC address?
[02:07] <nicomachus> There are two lines for "ListenAddress" in the config file, one was pre-filled with <IP_ADDRESS>, so I know that's where the IP goes. The other is pre-filled with ::
[02:07] <daftykins> nicomachus: no, 0's mean listen to all
[02:08] <DarwinSurvivor> nicomachus: if you leave those as they are, it will always listen no matter what its ip address is
[02:08] <nicomachus> ah, ok then.
[02:09] <DarwinSurvivor> nicomachus: the ssh server should work with all default settings, though you may want to make some changes to increase security (different port, only specific users can connect, key-auth only, etc)
[02:09] <nicomachus> DarwinSurvivor: I set it to key-auth only. Thought there was something else I needed to do in the config file to get it working.
[02:11] <DarwinSurvivor> nicomachus: nope, just make sure you start it :)
[02:11] <DarwinSurvivor> nicomachus: also, you'll need to generate some keys to use
[02:12] <nicomachus> I just ran "ssh nicomachus@hostname" and all I get is cursor blinking.
[02:12] <daftykins> try IP
[02:12] <daftykins> assuming you're going internally on a LAN
[02:12] <nicomachus> authenticity can't be established
[02:12] <nicomachus> when using the IP
[02:13] <nicomachus> Laptop on wi-fi, pc on ethernet, going through the router.
[02:14] <nicomachus> I got a crossover, but I'd rather get the SSH figured out because that'll be good for me to know.
[02:15] <DarwinSurvivor> nicomachus: did you test it before dissabling password authentication?
[02:15] <LeonsDen> Hi room
[02:16] <DarwinSurvivor> nicomachus: also, try ssh'ing to localhost from the same machine
[02:16] <Blaster> what's the best way to stream X11 from my Ubuntu machine to my OSX box.
[02:16] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: could you be more specific?
[02:17] <nicomachus> oh, wow, i didn't even realize it was asking me if I wanted to continue. I hit yes and it add it to the list of known hosts
[02:17] <Blaster> The OSX is just a small 13" laptop and the Ubuntu machine has like 3 monitors, I just want a way to see those screens from my laptop.
[02:17] <LeonsDen> Whats the best way to load balance internet connection
[02:17] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: what do you want to show up where (entire ubuntu desktop on mac, single application, etc)
[02:17] <Diana_> >;D
[02:17] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: sounds like you want something like vnc
[02:17] <Blaster> Entire desktop.
[02:18] <Blaster> And a way to display only one of the screens at a time.
[02:18] <Blaster> Since the client would be a laptop and the host would be the desktop that has 3 screens.
[02:18] <Blaster> And I want it to just run in the background like sshd.
[02:18] <DarwinSurvivor> !give vnc | blaster
[02:18] <EriC^^> !vnc | Blaster
[02:18] <Fuwie> is it safe to remove gnome-bluetooth?
[02:19] <DarwinSurvivor> thanks EriC^^ been a while since I used ubottu
[02:19] <EriC^^> np
[02:19] <DarwinSurvivor> Fuwie: if you don't use bluetooth, but make sure you check what else it will remove before hitting "yes"
[02:20] <Fuwie> DarwinSurvivor I just read that bluez and gnome-bluetooth don't play well together, so I have to remove one or the other I guess for my bluetooth to work?
[02:20] <Blaster> Which port do I need to forward for VNC using Gnome's desktop sharing?
[02:20] <Blaster> I want to connect remotely from outside of the network.
[02:20] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: 5900 I believe
[02:21] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: oh, in that case do NOT open port 5900
[02:21] <Blaster> Whynot?
[02:21] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: you'll want to tunnel it over SSH if you are going over the internet, which should be explained in the link from EriC^^/ubottu
[02:21] <Blaster> Oho k.
[02:21] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: because VNC is EXTREMELY insecure and other than the password itself has absolutely no encryption
[02:22] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: it is a VERY fast way to get you machine hacked
[02:22] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: instead you'll want to set up SSH (preferrably with key-only authentication or a high port number), then connect to that and create an SSH tunnel to port 5900 for your VNC connection
[02:23] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: See the "SSH Port Forwarding" section of the link you were given
[02:23] <Blaster> Yeah my box has an sshd already.
[02:24] <Blaster> Just need to figure out the port forwarding stuff.
[02:24] <Blaster> That's pretty cool, didn't know you could do that.
[02:25] <Blaster> So SSH is completely encrypted, when you're using it on a public wifi there's no way to sniff the packets?
[02:25] <daftykins> of course there is, there's always the potential for man in the middle attacks :)
[02:28] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: yes it is encrypted. To be really secure though, you'll want to connect from a trusted source and get the server's public key into your .known_hosts file.
[02:28] <Blaster> So this SSH forwarding for VNC should work out of the box then if I'm running remote desktop, just need the right arguments for the forwarding on the client?
[02:28] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: that makes it much harder for someone to Man-In-The-Middle you
[02:29] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: yes
[02:29] <DarwinSurvivor> Blaster: also, you'll probably want to restrict your vnc server (vino is the default in gnome) to localhost only, so that you can only connect to it remotely via ssh
[02:31] <trn450> Hello - for whatever reason I only get 100Mbps on my Gigabit network on my Ubuntu install. Would anybody be able to help me troubleshoot? thx
[02:32] <studio__> how groovy, i am banned from ubuntu-touch *lol*
[02:33] <trn450> Oh, and ethtool says gigabit is supported.
[02:33] <studio__> they don't like questions about ubuntu and ubuntu-touch with its security :)
[02:34] <studio__> so i can still use android?
[02:34] <daftykins> trn450: using an inferior cable?
[02:35] <argenis> lp
[02:36] <trn450> daftykins: no the cable is satisfactory. gigabit in windows on same machine.
[02:36] <trn450> daftykins: broadcom chip, defaulted to tg3 module by install
[02:38] <nicomachus> how do I set the password for the remote host?
[02:38] <trn450> nicomachus: in what context? how are you connecting?
[02:38] <nicomachus> ssh
[02:39] <daftykins> i don't think you're using the right terms
[02:39] <daftykins> in the context of an SSH connection, the remote host is the one you're logging into - therefore the password is the one you set the system up with, for the given user
[02:40] <daftykins> e.g. i SSH to 'computername', i login with 'username' and 'password' because it's my system
[02:40] <nicomachus> yea, that's not working...
[02:40] <daftykins> more details, where are you connecting to, from where?
[02:40] <trn450> nicomachus: if the user exists on your system already and you cannot connect: 1 ensure sshd is installed, 2 make sure port 22 is open in your firwall
[02:42] <nicomachus> i just don't even know anymore...
[02:42] <trn450> nicomachus: have you installed the openssh package?
[02:42] <nicomachus> yes.
[02:42] <nicomachus> on both machines.
[02:44] <trn450> okay. so do this:
[02:44] <trn450> ps aux | grep sshd
[02:44] <trn450> Tell me if you see the following in there: root ... ... ... ... /usr/sbin/sshd -D
[02:45] <nicomachus> yep.
[02:45] <trn450> okay, now: sudo ufw status
[02:45] <trn450> does it show port 22 enabled?
[02:45] <nicomachus> Status: inactive
[02:45] <trn450> :)
[02:45] <trn450> sudo ufw enable
[02:45] <trn450> sudo ufw allow 22
[02:45] <trn450> then retry: ssh user@ip
[02:46] <trn450> obviously for the remote host
[02:46] <nicomachus> well ok then.
[02:46] <trn450> ufw is the "uncomplicated firewall"
[02:47] <trn450> great tool, learn to use it before moving on to understanding iptables.
[02:47] <trn450> nicomachus: did it work?
[02:47] <nicomachus> Just an FYI: I've been trying to do that since 10:00am this morning.
[02:47] <nicomachus> Yes, it worked.
[02:47] <trn450> haha. we've all been there! ^_^
[02:47] <trn450> you can always check which ports are open with nmap
[02:47] <trn450> that'll tell you if you've got the correct ports open
[02:47] <trn450> it's not installed by default, but you can apt-get nmap
[02:48] <nicomachus> wow. that was entirely too easy, thank you trn450
[02:48] <daftykins> what time is it now, nicomachus? ;)
[02:48] <nicomachus> 8:48 pm
[02:49] <trn450> nicomachus: absolutely. Now that you're in the IRC channel, you'll find that answers come sooner. lol
[02:49] <nicomachus> https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQX727zIrZFPAThyczCDaIM_zKSCt7niM2vVtCedFx0zgJC96JeTSr79Q
[02:49] <nicomachus> trn450: I've been in the IRC channel all weekend...
[02:50] <nicomachus> I've had hardware issues, kernel issues, live disc issues, usb boot issues, PLoP issues, installation issues, stability issues, and ssh issues.
[02:52] <trn450> nicomachus: lol @ pic
[02:53] <trn450> nicomachus: why so many issues? :/ i've not had that many issues on any of my ubuntu installs.
[02:54] <nicomachus> thrift store PC. 7-8 year old mobo. replaced the CPU and GPU to get up to video streaming capable.
[02:54] <nicomachus> but the PSU wasn't strong enough, so the CPU kept failing.
[02:55] <nicomachus> replaced that. got a new HDD to replace the 80gb. then had to reinstall with a shitty DVD drive and a BIOS that wouldn't boot from USB.
[02:56] <Raziel> Hello. i have fucked up and need help
[02:56] <xangua> !language | Raziel
[02:56] <Raziel> i apologize
[02:57] <xangua> ok ;()
[02:57] <xangua> ;)
[02:57] <Raziel> my desktop is MIA. but it pops up when i click the trash icon
[02:57] <Raziel> and when i try to access my Files launcher, it appears for about 5 seconds then goes away
[02:58] <Raziel> Any idea?
[02:58] <xangua> "MIA" ?
[02:58] <Raziel> also, i can't click any icons on the background desktop when trash opens.
[02:58] <Raziel> Missing in action
[02:59] <Raziel> the background picture is there, but i can't click anything and all icons on it are gone.
[02:59] <Raziel> i can't even make the squares by dragging and moving.
[03:02] <Raziel> i have no idea how to fix this
[03:03] <Mr_Sheesh> Alt-Tab work? Just in case. No expert on Linux atm
[03:03] <craigbass1976> I ran into this last night ans don't remember how I got around it.  Box1 has a directrory called remote.  Box2 runs sshfs user@box2:/home/user/remote/ mount-point/  Then does sudo touch mount-point/1.txt  and gets a permission denied error.  I've chowned (on box 1) the remote dir to root, but still no love
[03:05] <raziel> sorry about that
[03:05] <raziel> anyway. Any idea?
[03:05] <[1]MN> 22:04] <[1]MN> Team any one has a solution of implementing my personal search engine
[03:05] <[1]MN> [22:04] <[1]MN> which searches exactly as google does from online
[03:06] <studio__> so, is it "worth" to change to ubuntu-touch without the security i know from ubuntu?
[03:07] <R0bbie> nickserv wasnt happy with my last name
[03:08] <daftykins> R0bbie: test the guest session, if that works fine, we know it's your account
[03:09] <GraemeLion> studio__: Worth it to change what to Ubuntu touch?
[03:09] <R0bbie> ill try
[03:10] <R0bbie> guest session has no issue
[03:11] <R0bbie> so its my account. i think i deleted something important but i restored it from the bin
[03:11] <R0bbie> but my problem persisted
[03:11] <craigbass1976> I've also got the directory in question chmodded to 777
[03:12] <R0bbie> when i try to access any folder (pictures/videos/home/whatever) it disappears in like 5 seconds
[03:15] <daftykins> R0bbie: hit ctrl+alt+F1, log in, type "mv ~/.config ~/.configold" then "sudo shutdown -r 0" and see if it's fixed
[03:18] <R0bbie> can you copy/paste that last response?
[03:18] <R0bbie> having issues lol.
[03:19] <R0bbie> oh nvm
[03:19] <R0bbie> i can scroll
[03:19] <R0bbie> thx
[03:22] <bruxC> how would I go about adding a group to a directory without affecting the pre-existing permissions
[03:22] <bruxC> is that chmod +R 775 groupname /etc/filepath
[03:22] <bruxC> (new to linux/ubuntu)
[03:23] <R0bbie> it's asking for a login. i don't remember making a password for my disc on this. i think i only made one login for this account..
[03:24] <R0bbie> and its not working. is there a default password?
[03:24] <trn450> sorry, i missed first part
[03:24] <trn450> for root?
[03:24] <R0bbie> yeah
[03:24] <daftykins> bruxC: chown -R user:group /path
[03:24] <trn450> by default you do not make a root password. your primary login is the admin with sudo priveleges.
[03:24] <trn450> So, you can do:
[03:24] <R0bbie> is there any way i can do that through terminal Dafty? i have access to that?
[03:24] <trn450> sudo passwd root
[03:24] <trn450> and then give root a password
[03:25] <bruxC> the user:group part... my username is "user" and my group is "sonarr" so would that be user:sonarr?
[03:26] <daftykins> R0bbie: that's what the whole "ctrl+alt+F1" pressing is about.
[03:26] <trn450> in Ubuntu, by default users are given a primary group of t heir own name. So, if sonarr was your username your default group would be sonarr as well.
[03:26] <R0bbie> trn450, the issue im having is my desktop has disappeared along with all icons. and when i click files it shows up for 5 seconds and disappears. sorry dafty im bad at this lol
[03:26] <R0bbie> ctrl alt f1 just took up my whole screen. did not know it was term
[03:26] <trn450> R0bbie: what happened prior to this? did you make ssytem settings changes?
[03:26] <daftykins> trn450: we do not advise people to ruin the entire design principles behind ubuntu in here, you should not be telling them to set a password for root.
[03:27] <daftykins> R0bbie: you do not log in as root. you log in as your username.
[03:28] <trn450> daftykins: I understand. However, it was my understanding he asked and there is nothing wrong with that knowledge. By design GNU/Linux was made to be hacked.
[03:29] <daftykins> there is nothing 'hacking' about trashing their install's security
[03:29] <daftykins> :)
[03:30] <trn450> daftykins: IMO all discovery counts :)
[03:30] <R0bbie> that did not work at all
[03:30] <daftykins> you might want to narrow down what you mean?
[03:30] <R0bbie> it changed my background back to original and readded the side icons but it didnt fix my problem
[03:30] <R0bbie> the side icons i deleted*
[03:31] <daftykins> so what, clicking the trash?
[03:31] <daftykins> you're gonna have to describe
[03:31] <R0bbie> also, when i click on trash, my desktop icons return but it closes in 5 seconds and nothing stays
[03:31] <bruxC> so my issue is sonarr, I've been trying to get this damn thing to auto-start but no luck. Can someone help me. I'm pretty positive it's permissions based i'm just really struggling with all things linux/ubuntu.
[03:32] <R0bbie> also i know what root is and how it's really easy to demolish your system with it so i never use it
[03:32] <R0bbie> i just have an issue and really have no idea how to fix it
[03:33] <R0bbie> i deleted the folder Templates because i thought it was useless prior to this issue if that helps
[03:33] <R0bbie> im guessing i effed up big time if that is the cause of this
[03:34] <daftykins> no idea, i don't even use desktop so my experience here is limited
[03:34] <R0bbie> you don't use your desktop?
[03:35] <R0bbie> also, your config thing made my browser lose all of its bookmarks
[03:36] <daftykins> i don't use Ubuntu desktop.
[03:36] <daftykins> yeah you can get that back easy enough
[03:39] <R0bbie> this is killing me
[03:41] <omgz00r> guys
[03:41] <omgz00r> i installed ubuntu
[03:41] <omgz00r> and now my system boots straight into ubuntu instead of giving me an option between windows and ubuntu
[03:41] <omgz00r> like, why won't it dual boot
[03:41] <omgz00r> the windows installation is still there
[03:41] <omgz00r> it hasn't been deleted
[03:43] <omgz00r> hello?
[03:43] <omgz00r> is everyone in here an irc bot or something
[03:43] <omgz00r> why no tlak
[03:44] <Bashing-om> omgz00r: Try: -> sudo update-grub <- .
[03:44] <EriC^^> omgz00r: were you here earlier?

[04:01] <gunarm_> I notice that kodi (previously) xbmc can't remove addons, and I look in the logs and it says it can't delete the files which apparently are in /usr/share/kodi/addons/
[04:02] <gunarm_> i don't get how that's even *supposed* to work... am I supposed to be running kodi with sudo?
[04:03] <EriC^^> gunarm_: i doubt
[04:04] <daftykins> gunarm_: not relevant here, just 'cause nobody is replying in #kodi ;)
[04:05] <iqbalkhan> Hello All
[04:05] <gunarm_> daftykins, well, it kinda is!
[04:05] <iqbalkhan> I have installed the ubuntu variant
[04:05] <iqbalkhan> it is Cylon OS
[04:05] <iqbalkhan> It based on 12.04 ubuntu
[04:05] <rww> iqbalkhan: We don't supported "based on ubuntu" here, just Ubuntu itself.
[04:05] <gunarm_> daftykins, and maybe I don't understand I don't understand how linux works like I thought I did if kodi is trying to write to /usr/share
[04:06] <rww> (and official derivatives, which that isn't)
[04:06] <gunarm_> daftykins, isn't everything in /usr supposed to be off limits to non admin processes?
[04:06] <daftykins> please stop highlighting me
[04:07] <iqbalkhan> rww, ok. I thought i can get help here
[04:07] <gunarm_> daftykins, oh ok, well please do not speak to me if you don't wish to be spoken back to
[04:07] <daftykins> that's a really stupid statement :)
[04:08] <gunarm_> no, it isn't
[04:20] <nuget102> Ello
[04:20] <Dylan_> Hi guys. I'm unfortunately dealing with an Excel sheet for my work that has embedded macros that won't translate properly to LibreOffice. Short of simply installing Excel in a dualboot with Windows, does anyone have a better idea how I can access these macros in my spreadsheet?
[04:20] <Dylan_> Hi nuget.
[04:20] <nuget102> Anyone able to help me? It appears Ubuntu is unable to find my bluetooth adapter, and all the fixes I've seen don't work...
[04:20] <OerHeks> Dylan_, online office?
[04:21] <Dylan_> OerHeks: What's that?
[04:22] <OerHeks> Dylan_, the free online version of office/excel, see https://office.live.com/start/Excel.aspx?omkt=en-US
[04:22] <Dylan_> Just found it.
[04:23] <OerHeks> nuget102, is this a bt usb adapter connected by usb3 by any chance?
[04:24] <nuget102> Nope.
[04:24] <jamie_> okay, yet again i am running into a problem... i go to install ubuntu via live usb and it keeps returning an error
[04:24] <nuget102> It worked fine, until I upgraded from ubuntu 12.
[04:24] <dcope> hey all. i just took a logrotate config down from keeping 52 to 14. i wanted to test this so i ran logrotate with -d but it looks like it wont automatically delete the old logs that exceed 14
[04:24] <jamie_> failed to load com32file gfxboot.c32
[04:25] <dcope> is this the case?
[04:25] <x41> what is the correct way to add a compressor or limiter to a source (input) device threw PA?
[04:26] <OerHeks> nuget102, Use rfkill to ensure there isn't any hard/soft block on your bluetooth deivce. open terminal:  rfkill list
[04:27] <somsip> dcope: that is the case. It only looks at the 'rotate' number of files and you need to manually delete the others
[04:27] <nuget102> OerHeks I only see Wireless LAN connections, nothing about my bluetooth.
[04:27] <jamie_> this is the second time I have ran into this problem, I searched it up and it says that it is a bug in unetbootin, but i have tried both startup disk creators, and also unetbootin and dd
[04:28] <dcope> somsip: oh ok, thank you
[04:28] <Dylan_> OerHeks: do you know how to upload a local spreadsheet to Online Office?
[04:28] <somsip> dcope: np. did the same thing myself last week :)
[04:29] <OerHeks> Dylan_, nope, i used powerpoint only, isn't there an option to upload? maybe you need skydrive for that ..
[04:30] <Dylan_> I'm looking for an upload option but I'm not finding one...
[04:30] <nuget102> OerHeks but if I do sudo lsmod |grep blue I get sudo lsmod |grep blue as a result. But if I didn't have bluetooth I shouldn't be doing that? So I think it's software, not hardware. And my laptop DOES have bluetooth...
[04:30] <nuget102> So frustrating.
[04:30] <Dylan_> "Open" only seems to access the cloud itself.
[04:31] <Dylan_> Googlin' it now...
[04:31] <OerHeks> nuget102, BT works fine here, but it was a fresh install, one guy wrote "I got it fixed via Ubuntu software center.... I had every bluetooth software (blue icon) installed except the manager. I just had to install Bluetooth Manager from the Ubuntu Software Center. " http://askubuntu.com/questions/490346/bluetooth-not-working-in-ubuntu-14-04-lts
[04:31] <jamie_> any ideas on how to solve this problem
[04:32] <Dylan_> Oi. Figure it out and "The file can't be edited using Online Office."
[04:32] <Dylan_> Back to my original question then:
[04:32] <Dylan_> I'm unfortunately dealing with an Excel sheet for my work that has embedded macros that won't translate properly to LibreOffice. Short of simply installing Excel in a dualboot with Windows, does anyone have a better idea how I can access these macros in my spreadsheet?
[04:32] <nuget102> OerHeks I have literally every bluetooth icon installed as well, still not working. The Bluetooth Manager comes up with "Bluetooth needs to be turned on for the device manager to function" and I click "enable bluetooth" but it doesn't work.
[04:33] <nuget102> And this is a fresh install as well I do bleieve.
[04:33] <jamie_> nuget102: are you on a laptop
[04:33] <nuget102> jamie_ yes.
[04:33] <nuget102> No it's not the switch thing that turns of bluetooth
[04:34] <jamie_> nuget102: you may need the drivers
[04:34] <OerHeks> nuget102, is the BT service running ? sudo service bluetooth start
[04:34] <blib> lookiing for a good quality compact+light,  mic+speaker combo that will work on arm + ubuntu. Any suggestions?
[04:34] <nuget102> OerHeks it says it's already running
[04:35] <nuget102> jamie_ where can I find the drivers? I mean they should already be installed, I think? But it's worth a shot.
[04:35] <OerHeks> nuget102, then i am out of ideas
[04:35] <nuget102> Thanks anyway OerHeks
[04:35] <jamie_> nuget102: what type of laptop
[04:35] <nuget102> I've literally spend two days trying to fix this crap
[04:35] <nuget102> jamie_ Dell Inspiron n4030
[04:36] <jamie_> nuget102: one sec
[04:36] <nuget102> Thanks. :_
[04:36] <nuget102> :)
[04:37] <OerHeks> nuget102,try:  dmesg | grep -i blue   # is there a line that says  Bluetooth: Firmware file "your number" not found
[04:38] <nuget102> OerHeks I can paste what all it says?
[04:38] <nuget102> But, not that I see.
[04:38] <jamie_> nuget102: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=TTW58&fileId=3176083194&osCode=W764&productCode=inspiron-14-n4030&languageCode=EN&categoryId=NI
[04:38] <OerHeks> nuget102,  sure, use paste.ubuntu.com please
[04:38] <nuget102> jamie_ wait, do I have to have windows to install those drivers? If so I can't install them. No Windows...
[04:39] <jamie_> nuget102: you should, let me doubble check real fast
[04:39] <nuget102> OerHeks http://paste.ubuntu.com/10136708/
[04:39] <jamie_> nuget102: i mean you should be able to not on windows, but im checking right now
[04:39] <OerHeks> no windows drivers needed, maybe linux-firmware-nonfree
[04:39] <nuget102> Thanks
[04:40] <nuget102> OerHeks ??
[04:40] <OerHeks> looks like it should work..
[04:40] <agent_white> Evenin
[04:41] <nuget102> Good evening agent_white
[04:42] <jamie_> nuget102: im still checking sorry
[04:42] <OerHeks> nuget102, this solution is worth a try https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1283003/comments/15
[04:43] <nuget102> It's okay jamie_
[04:43] <nuget102> And thanks OerHeks
[04:44] <nicomachus> if my home folder is encrypted, can I still use rsync to send a folder via ssh
[04:44] <nicomachus> ?
[04:44] <daftykins> yes
[04:44] <nuget102> Guess I have to restart?
[04:44] <daftykins> services running atop the host are on the other 'side' of the encryption
[04:44] <nuget102> So uh, brb guys. :p
[04:44] <OerHeks> nuget102, no, restart bluetooth service
[04:45] <TiK> reboots what are you using windows? :)
[04:45] <nuget102> How do I do that? :/
[04:45] <nuget102> Not great with linux, sorry.. It's more my girlfriends thing.
[04:45] <OerHeks> nuget102, sudo service bluetooth restart
[04:45] <nicomachus> I'm trying to send my entire /home/username/music/ folder over to another pc via ssh and rsync, but I keep getting a "failed: No such file or directory"
[04:45] <TiK> yeah
[04:45] <nuget102> Aaand nope.
[04:46] <nuget102> I still can't turn on bluetooth, and still no adapter found
[04:46] <TiK> just cp -a it are you running samba?
[04:46] <TiK> nicomachus: run samba and cp =a it
[04:46] <nicomachus> TiK: no, I was going to use rsync because it's a rather large folder.
[04:46] <TiK> cp -a
[04:46] <TiK> well you are having problems that way so setup a network and cp it
[04:47] <TiK> that is what I would do...
[04:47] <nicomachus> cp or scp?
[04:47] <TiK> cp after you get the network set up
[04:48] <agent_white> nicomachus: It's good to use rsync, actually. Just due to featurs it has like recovering disconnected tranfer and stuff.
[04:49] <nicomachus> that's why I was using that instead of scp.
[04:49] <jamie_> nuget102: are you on 14.04
[04:49] <nuget102> jamie_ Yes.
[04:50] <nicomachus> even with scp I get "no such file or directory"
[04:50] <nuget102> We upgraded to 14.04 because the latest version of Google Chrome lets us watch Netflix without any stupid workarounds. :p
[04:50] <jamie_> nuget102: http://askubuntu.com/questions/490346/bluetooth-not-working-in-ubuntu-14-04-lts
[04:50] <nuget102> Which, afaik, is only available on 14.04
[04:50] <nicomachus> I'm just directing it to /home/nicomachus/music it shouldn't be that hard, right?
[04:50] <jamie_> take a look at that
[04:53] <agent_white> nicomachus: What is the exact command you are typing in?
[04:53] <nicomachus> agent_white: scp -r /home/nicomachus/Music xenophilius@<IP_ADDRESS>:/home/xenophilius/Music
[04:54] <nicomachus> oh. my. god.
[04:54] <nicomachus> you have GOT to be kidding.
[04:54] <daftykins> yeah you need to type path.../.
[04:54] <nicomachus> It's because I didn't have the M in Music capitalized.
[04:54] <nicomachus> CAPITALIZATION
[04:54] <daftykins> haha
[04:54] <nicomachus> MATTERS
[04:54] <daftykins> yep welcome to Linux
[04:54] <agent_white> nicomachus: Use dat auto-complete ;)
[04:54] <daftykins> you can't autocomplete a remote path
[04:55] <nuget102> I think I found it, thanks so much.
[04:55] <nuget102> jamie_ thanks so yea
[04:55] <jamie_> also people does anyone know what the cause of this error     failed to load com32 file gfxboot.c32
[04:55] <agent_white> True. I assumed he was mispelling it locally.
[04:55] <jamie_> nuget102: did that work for you
[04:56] <nuget102> Nope. xD
[04:56] <nuget102> Still trying though.
[04:56] <jamie_> dam..... :\
[04:56] <nuget102> Give me another few minutes.
[04:57] <nicomachus> And of course rsync works fine now, too, with the capitalization...
[04:57] <nicomachus> well, time to go to bed and let those 150gb transfer.
[04:57] <nicomachus> night all, thanks for the help and for pointing out my stupidity.
[04:58] <jamie_> nuget102: lol im still searching for a solution
[04:58] <fry__> When I try to install ubuntu, like click 'try ubuntu before install' or 'install' the screen flashes, then comes back to grub and freezes. Does anyone know what's going on?
[04:59] <nuget102> thanks jamie_ , I've been looking for 2 days. About to give up...
[04:59] <jamie_> nuget102: NEVER!!!!
[05:00] <nuget102> jamie_ how do I install that dell driver btw. I'm going to go ahead and try that maybe?
[05:00] <jamie_> i dont know if that will work due to its a .exe file
[05:00] <daftykins> this is Linux, you don't install drivers like in Windows land
[05:01] <xangua> you don't install windows driver even...
[05:01] <OerHeks> daftykins +1 no windows drivers needed, maybe linux-firmware-nonfree
[05:01] <nuget102> Yea....
[05:02] <new0theruser> anyone familiar with mutt here?
[05:02] <jamie_> Im looking for the linux drivers because i know there are some
[05:03] <nuget102> Thanks
[05:03] <nicomachus> fry__: are you using a cd or usb?
[05:05] <new0theruser> mutt keeps attaching my message versus inlining it--is this desired or a result of gpg?
[05:05] <fry__> nicomachus: usb
[05:05] <jamie_> i am also have a problem with install, but totally different
[05:20] <jamie_> I have tried to get help with the problem before on here but we came to no resolution to the problem
[05:25] <RahulAN> citroniks, Hii
[05:27] <jamie_> nvm people ill try again later I guess
[05:32] <TiK> hi
[05:38] <Lope> Hi, my encrypted home dir got a little bit corrupt. It still works, but I've had some errors. How can I run fsck on it?
[05:58] <bmelcher84> hey everyone
[05:58] <lotuspsychje> bmelcher84: welcome mate
[05:58] <bmelcher84> lotuspsychje: whats up buddy
[05:59] <bmelcher84> where abouts are you from?
[05:59] <lotuspsychje> bmelcher84: this channel is used for ubuntu support only, not regular chat
[06:00] <bmelcher84> lotuspsychje: i understand, but we are human after all, not robots
[06:00] <bmelcher84> so i am looking into installing ubuntu on my raspberry pi
[06:01] <bmelcher84> know much about this, or should i look for a raspberry pi channel?
[06:01] <lotuspsychje> !alis | bmelcher84
[06:02] <lotuspsychje> bmelcher84: maybe this can help mate: http://askubuntu.com/questions/212346/can-a-raspberry-pi-run-ubuntu
[06:04] <dingus1> I like it. I need to get a raspberry Pi 2.
[06:05] <dingus1> It is faster than my old dell desktop 866. And it is quad core at 900 Mhz
[06:06] <JargonNode> daftykins:  I am back up and running, we chatted earlier with my nick being "ubuntulivesorrow"
[06:06] <bmelcher84> dingus1: i agree
[06:06] <bmelcher84> JargonNode: I was not here, but whats up buddy
[06:07] <dingus1> $35 USD, not bad for a toy.
[06:08] <JargonNode> bmelcher84:  was just thanking daftykins and EriC^^  ... I was using hexchat via a Ubuntu LiveCD, they helped out with the mystery of not being able to remove files from a mounted volume that I was needing to do prior to a reinstall
[06:09] <bmelcher84> JargonNode: Ah, okay, well glad you got everything working
[06:09] <JargonNode> bmelcher84:  all is better now, my script to reinstall all my packages worked like a charm, got all my profiles/settings copied back to save time
[06:09] <bmelcher84> nice
[06:09] <JargonNode> bmelcher84:  it was good experience, trying to get LPIC-1 certified soon
[06:10] <JargonNode> bmelcher84:  you have certs?
[06:11] <bmelcher84> never needed them, if you know it you know it, and i have always been hired
[06:11] <bmelcher84> so i guess no need
[06:12] <JargonNode> bmelcher84:  what's your current title/duties if you don't mind me asking
[06:13] <bmelcher84> JargonNode: director of IT
[06:13] <TiK> certs are the way to go if you know it get a piece of paper sayting you do :P
[06:13] <TiK> people lie all the time
[06:14] <dingus1> Dumb question: "Is there a ubuntu channel for support of the rasperry Pi 2?" I am kinda of a unix guy. mostly engineering systems Sun, SGI.
[06:14] <somsip> dingus1: #raspberrypi
[06:14] <dingus1> And I have no certs. :(
[06:14] <bmelcher84> TiK: i agree, and i may go that way now since i can have it paid for, but before I never had the funds to keep them up
[06:15] <bmelcher84> dingus1: pm me
[06:20] <fishcooker> i have itegno modem on /dev/ttyUSB0  i want to link it to something eg: /dev/modem
[06:20] <fishcooker> how to do it?
[06:29] <eiqui> is it possible to use Timeshift to restore ubuntu after re-partitioning the drive?
[06:35] <trn450> So, i compiled a new driver for my ethernet card and installed it. I created the deps with depmod, and the used modload to load it. I confirmed that the new version was running. On reboot, everything was broken :/ So, I removed the new driver and confirmed loading the old one in recovery mode. But, still no dice. Any recommendations? thx
[06:39] <Goose_> hey
[06:42] <bmelcher84> trn450: sounds like my every day with linux :/ lol
[06:42] <lotuspsychje> trn450: did you blacklist the old driver
[06:43] <lotuspsychje> !blacklist | trn450
[06:44] <lotuspsychje> trn450: maybe fix broken packages from grub recoverymode can also help you
[06:47] <trn450> bmelcher84: lol, I feel ya.
[06:47] <trn450> lotuspsychje: I did not blacklist, no.
[06:47] <trn450> ubottu: Thanks, I'l give that a try.
[06:47] <trn450> ubottu: I could make an argument that's all we truly are :)
[06:48] <lotuspsychje> trn450: how come your ethernet driver isnt recognized on ubuntu setup in the first place?
[06:50] <trn450> lotuspsychje: it was recognized. But I was only getting 100Mbps and I thought it might be a driver issue. (Windows on same machien gets full gigabit)
[06:50] <lotuspsychje> trn450: with what did you test the speed?
[06:50] <trn450> i was transferring a 20gb file and it was painful to watch it.
[06:50] <trn450> nload
[06:51] <lotuspsychje> trn450: maybe try other transfer ways to test
[06:51] <trn450> The math also worked in terms of time it took to transfer.
[06:52] <lotuspsychje> trn450: the ##networking guys might be able to help speed issues
[06:53] <trn450> thanks! I'll give them a try. For now, I'm going to attempt one last ditch effort to salvage the install. So easy to clean install I can't bring myself to do too much work to fix a broken os. lol
[06:53] <trn450> lotuspsychje: thanks for your help.
[07:04] <trn450> It's working now :) Thx again for your help. Blacklisting didn't resolve it for whatever reason, but just doing apt-get update && upgrade worked
[07:04] <lotuspsychje> !yay | trn450
[07:05] <trn450> ty ty
[07:05] <lotuspsychje> trn450: did you enable internet + updates during ubuntu setup?
[07:06] <trn450> lotuspsychje: this is a relatively old install. but yes, those things were enabled at that time. I broke it, Ubuntu did a fine job providing me with something working. I just didnt' like seeing the limited bandwidth.
[07:07] <lotuspsychje> trn450: ah maybe some old leftovers brought driver problems
[07:07] <trn450> lotuspsychje: definitely some driver problems. I'm now running at just over 10 Mbps :/
[07:07] <lotuspsychje> !info bleachbit | trn450 can i recommend you this:
[07:07] <trn450> That's worse than how I started.
[07:07] <trn450> ugh
[07:08] <lotuspsychje> trn450: wich ubuntu version is this?
[07:08] <trn450> 12.04 (Elementary OS)
[07:08] <lotuspsychje> oh
[07:08] <lotuspsychje> trn450: maybe its time for a 14.04 LTS fresh install
[07:09] <lotuspsychje> !elementary | trn450
[07:10] <trn450> Their IRC channel is dead :/ lol
[07:10] <trn450> lotuspsychje: perhaps. I just enjoy the elementary os altogether and theri 14.04 is still beta
[07:11] <lotuspsychje> trn450: im sure a 14.04 ubuntu fresh install could fix all your driver issues
[07:11] <lotuspsychje> so its up to you :p
[07:14] <OerHeks> trn450, elementary has its own issues
[07:14] <trn450> except for nvidia drivers :/ elementary os has a very good solution for nvidia proprietary drivers. on 14.04 lts that was definitely a challenge for me
[07:14] <OerHeks> good luck
[07:14] <trn450> OerHeks: I can see you're correct :) lol. Maybe i'll run their beta.
[07:15] <trn450> This is intolerable though. Uploading at 1.6MB/s to my server is terrible.

[07:21] <NEI4U2K> hi, i did erase disk and install ubuntu, but when i start the computer, there's a windows 7 option
[07:21] <dannyalt> No matter what i do, i cant get rid of the Lubuntu splash screen. the options to boot are also still lxde lubuntu openbox or ubuntu.
[07:22] <NEI4U2K> and I can choose it, and it will show some errormessage. How do I fix this? Thanks
[07:24] <lotuspsychje> dannymic_: you can try edit grub erase "quiet splash" to ""
[07:25] <lotuspsychje> NEI4U2K: try sudo update-grub
[07:26] <NEI4U2K> lotuspsychje: it says command not found
[07:26] <lotuspsychje> NEI4U2K: from terminal: sudo update-grub should do the trick
[07:27] <NEI4U2K> sorry, typo,
[07:32] <ame> somebody please help my clients are not booting and saying update initramfs
[07:34] <NEI4U2K> lotuspsychje: it didn't work.
[07:34] <NEI4U2K> i just restarted. windows 7 is still there
[07:35] <lotuspsychje> NEI4U2K: can you check your fstab

[07:37] <DamienM> hi
[07:39] <NEI4U2K> http://www.pasteall.org/pic/83548
[07:40] <DamienM> anyone wants to chat?
[07:40] <DamienM> pm me
[07:42] <OerHeks> !ot | DamienM
[07:43] <OerHeks> NEI4U2K, seems like you didn't fully wipe the drive
[07:43] <NEI4U2K> different drives.
[07:43] <NEI4U2K> is it because it's NTFS? I can't install android studio.
[07:46] <OerHeks> NEI4U2K, do you want to keep win7 ?
[07:47] <NEI4U2K> nope
[07:47] <NEI4U2K> already did erase disk and install ubuntu. should I reinstall ?
[07:48] <OerHeks> NEI4U2K, oh i see now, you installed ubuntu on the 2nd hdd sdb
[07:48] <OerHeks> no wonder win7 appears ..
[07:49] <Frostsongr> ^_^
[07:49] <NEI4U2K> i thought I chose the smaller drive? the ssd?
[07:49] <NEI4U2K> ya. what did i do wrong?
[07:51] <OerHeks> NEI4U2K, hard to say which one is the ssd
[07:53] <NEI4U2K> OerHeks: sdb is correct.
[07:54] <NEI4U2K> Oerheks : except when i check it on system monitor, it only has 23 gb, it's supposed to have 32 gb T_T. nvm that. ummm... Thanks?
[07:58] <NEI4U2K> it says found windows 7 on sda3.
[07:59] <NEI4U2K> system reserved.
[07:59] <cfhowlett> NEI4U2K, that would be the win7 restore partition
[07:59] <NEI4U2K> 100mb?
[08:00] <NEI4U2K> should i just delete the partition?
[08:00] <cfhowlett> NEI4U2K, sorry, that's windows boot partition.
[08:01] <NEI4U2K> yes, i dont think i have windows anymore. Is it ok to delete the partition?
[08:02] <NEI4U2K> nvm I deleted and resized the partition already, see how it goes :D
[08:02] <svetlana> Hi all. do-release-upgrade does not pick up 14.10 for some reason. I am on 14.04.
[08:02] <cfhowlett> svetlana, *sudo* do-release-upgrade
[08:03] <auronandace> svetlana: check your settings, it may be set to detect lts releases only
[08:04] <svetlana> cfhowlett: that's what I did.
[08:05] <Crom_> anyone get picoLCD running on a mini-box.com 20x2 display?
[08:05] <cfhowlett> svetlana, and your settings?  as aurondance suggested
[08:05] <Crom_> lucid 10.04 here
[08:05] <svetlana> I'm looking -- not sure where these settings are. (I have no gui stuff on this despite using it as a desktop.)
[08:05] <cfhowlett> Crom_, lucid desktop?  completely end of life and non-supported
[08:06] <cfhowlett> svetlana, understood.  wait 1
[08:06] <cfhowlett> svetlana, actually, ask #ubuntu-server      about this.  t'is a simple command which I've completely forgotten
[08:07] <inerkick> I have flash installed in my ubuntu 14.04 but still I get "A plugin is needed to display this content" this. What to do

[08:09] <studentttu> hello, can I run ubuntu on macbook air and if yes, will I have compatibility issues?
[08:10] <studentttu> I heard using OSX and windows identically reduced battery life by 50% on windows due to stuff not being optimizied
[08:11] <cfhowlett> !mac | studentttu, long answer short = "it depends".  see the !mac resources
[08:13] <nabn> I installed solarized colorscheme in gnome terminal. doing an 'ls' shows a funny character at the begining. What's going wrong? http://paste.ubuntu.com/10138824/
[08:13] <nabn> P.S. I am using zsh with antigen
[08:13] <studentttu> cfhowlett: the link you provided refers to 13.10 ubuntu, so I assume everything should work as good on the new version of ubuntu, 14 ?
[08:15] <cfhowlett> studentttu, as I understand it, yes.  I've tested 14.04 on mac air at the apples store.  use the standard 64 bit .iso boots without issue.  the broadcom chip for wifi required about 30 seconds of work in the terminal to enable.
[08:15] <studentttu> ookay
[08:23] <OerHeks> Crom_, maybe this page is any help, http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=79433
[08:24] <Crom_> lucid since I'm trying to run LinuxCNC
[08:25] <OerHeks> ?
[08:25] <Crom_> well finally got picoLCD running... now trying to figure remote code..
[08:26] <Crom_> OerHeks, earlier someone said lucid was EOL
[08:26] <OerHeks> Crom_,  yes, lucid desktop is EOL.
[08:26] <xangua> desktop is is and server soon will join
[08:26] <OerHeks> server is supported for another few months
[08:26] <Crom_> for picoLCD I needed to add an enviroment var for lib dir
[08:26] <Crom_> I need 10.04 for linuxcnc
[08:27] <trn450> OerHeks: I think you were here earlier wheN I was complaining about my xfer speeds. This getting very interesting. lol
[08:27] <trn450> Anybody have any idea why through nautilus i get a fraction fo the smb transfer speeds I get when I go through the smblclient in the CLI?
[08:27] <OerHeks> trn450, wrong channel dude, join #elementary to complain
[08:29] <trn450> Yeah, sorry, that place is empty. And, this is a Ubuntu based OS. Not so much complaining as inquiring, but thx anyway.

[09:49] <NEI4U2K> hi, i was editing this .bashrc file and it seems that I made errors. it's saying the command could not be located because /usr/bin is not included in the path environment variable.
[09:49] <NEI4U2K> and gedit: command not found.
[09:49] <NEI4U2K> how do i repair this?
[09:50] <popey> cfhowlett: same thing.
[09:50] <aeon-ltd> NEI4U2K: post your bashrc to pastebin
[09:50] <NEI4U2K> i can't open it
[09:50] <cfhowlett> popey, question was about running the OS on alternate platforms ...
[09:50] <popey> NEI4U2K: /usr/bin/gedit ~/.bashrc
[09:50] <NEI4U2K> i dont know how. terminal is saying gedit: command not found
[09:51] <popey> cfhowlett: I saw the question. I'm saying "ubuntu touch" and "Ubuntu phone" are the same thing.
[09:51] <cfhowlett> NEI4U2K, run this:   dpgk -l | grep gedit
[09:51] <cfhowlett> popey, k
[09:52] <NEI4U2K> http://www.pasteall.org/pic/83550
[09:54] <NEI4U2K> cfhowlett, http://www.pasteall.org/pic/83550 the same message
[09:55] <cfhowlett> NEI4U2K, dpkg -l | grep        will tell you if gedit is even installed.  I suspect it's not.
[09:55] <cfhowlett> NEI4U2K, also: WHY are you in root?!
[09:56] <NEI4U2K> no need to type sudo all the time :D
[09:56] <cfhowlett> NEI4U2K, sudo -i         NOT ROOT!!!
[09:57] <NEI4U2K> http://www.pasteall.org/pic/83551
[09:58] <aeon-ltd> NEI4U2K: type /usr/bin/nameofapplication instead for now until we fix the path problem

[10:00] <jle`> hi all. i think i had an upgrade fail or something and now whenever i try to sudo apt-get install anything, it appears to try to update ubuntu and fail again
[10:00] <jle`> instead of letting me install the package i wanted
[10:00] <NEI4U2K> /usr/bin/gedit ~/.bashrc is what I did.
[10:01] <Ben64> jle`: pastebin what you see
[10:01] <jle`> ok
[10:01] <aeon-ltd> NEI4U2K: space after gedit, what you are doing is calling the program with the complete path instead of bash doing it for you
[10:02] <aeon-ltd> NEI4U2K: oh wait, bad formatting i misread
[10:02] <NEI4U2K> there is a space.
[10:02] <aeon-ltd> ^ :)
[10:02]  * aeon-ltd should probably change font settings
[10:03] <NEI4U2K> i can open gedit though dash. but i doubt it can open ~/.bashrc
[10:04] <aeon-ltd> have you tried?
[10:04] <NEI4U2K> is there a way to browse to ~/.bashrc?
[10:04] <NEI4U2K> gedit is open now.
[10:04] <NEI4U2K> but not root mode
[10:04] <NEI4U2K> oh
[10:04] <NEI4U2K> it works
[10:04] <NEI4U2K> type a file name. just typed. and it works
[10:05] <jle`> oh it looks like it was cause i was passing in -y implicitly all the time
[10:05] <NEI4U2K> it has a different bashrc file
[10:06] <NEI4U2K> only root .bashrc is affected.
[10:10] <NEI4U2K> fixed it. installed gksu and opened gedit through that
[10:10] <NEI4U2K> thanks for the help.

[10:19] <QueensMelons> i officially switched over to ubuntu on my laptop :D
[10:20] <aLeSD> hi all
[10:20] <ablest1980> hi
[10:21] <QueensMelons> how do i join the ubuntu club?
[10:21] <aLeSD> my harddrive goes very slow some times
[10:21] <aLeSD> I am using 14.04
[10:21] <ablest1980> me too
[10:21] <jatt> do you have SSD
[10:21] <QueensMelons> aLeSD: you sure it is your HDD?
[10:21] <ablest1980> 14.04 lts
[10:22] <QueensMelons> because slowdowns are mostly caused my lack of ram or CPU working too hard.
[10:22] <ppf> define slow
[10:23] <ppf> it might be because your drive goes to sleep when you're not using it for a while, and to access it again requires it to spin up beforehand
[10:23] <QueensMelons> wow
[10:23] <jatt> install SSD->problem solved
[10:23] <QueensMelons> unity is NICE!
[10:23] <QueensMelons> it is really snappy on my laptop
[10:23] <QueensMelons> which is nice
[10:23] <QueensMelons> considering GNOME 3 lagged
[10:23] <aLeSD> QueensMelons: dunno
[10:23] <aLeSD> I have 16 GB
[10:24] <QueensMelons> i dont like the interface that much
[10:24] <QueensMelons> i think ill switch to using bspwm
[10:24] <aeon-ltd> QueensMelons: did you ever get bar working?
[10:24] <QueensMelons> aeon-ltd: yes
[10:24] <aLeSD> I mean all the accessed to my disjk drive are slow
[10:24] <aeon-ltd> nice to hear
[10:25] <aLeSD> and top does not show heavy usage of CPYU
[10:25] <aLeSD> maybe it's a bug in the kernel
[10:26] <ppf> possible, but not probable
[10:27] <allen-lt> hi
[10:29] <QueensMelons> nevermind my comment about snappiness :P
[10:30] <QueensMelons> it slowed down again
[10:30] <QueensMelons> looks like ill be using a window manager
[10:30] <QueensMelons> or perhaps cinnamon
[10:34] <ppf> QueensMelons: mayne try something lightweight, like xfce?
[10:35] <QueensMelons> ppf: tried xfce once. didn't like it.
[10:35] <QueensMelons> if i plan on going lightweight, ill go i3 or bspwm
[10:35] <QueensMelons> or openbox
[10:36] <QueensMelons> hmm, perhaps LXDE?
[10:36] <ppf> just one or two more, and you'll have enumerated all major available window managers :)
[10:37] <catphish> what is the correct way to install the kernel headers 1) for the currently running kernel and 2) for the current kernel branch so that all future kernel upgrades also  have headers
[10:37] <QueensMelons> ppf: haha i know, im very indecisive :P
[10:37] <ppf> catphish: install linux-headers-generic
[10:37] <QueensMelons> im using bspwm on desktop with arch, but im not sure if i want tiling on laptop
[10:37] <catphish> ppf: will that work if the system isn't running -generic?
[10:38] <catphish> ppf: for example the system i'm testing on is running -virtual
[10:38] <catphish> but i'd like a catch-all approach
[10:39] <catphish> given that this command is run before every compile of the drivers, i might just stick with "linux-headers-$(uname -r)"
[10:39] <catphish> sadly i dont think having the headers auto-updated is any advantage when the drivers are not
[10:40] <catphish> actually, dahdi is in the repos now, i'll just use that!
[10:42] <catphish> well the dahdi in the repos doesn't work :( it requires the kernel headers but doesn't depend on them :(
[10:49] <k1l> catphish: dont you have the linux-generic metpackage installed?
[10:50] <catphish> no
[10:50] <k1l> that should be on a regular ubuntu install
[10:50] <catphish> in fact i don't have linux-virtual installed either, i wonder what the installer did
[10:51] <catphish> this test machine was created with vmbuilder
[10:51] <k1l> because that meta package linux-generic will deoend on the latest kernel and latest headers.
[10:51] <catphish> ah, i do have "linux-image-virtual"
[10:51] <k1l> so its a special setup and its not a regular ubuntu install
[10:52] <catphish> its a virtual install made by vmbuilder, i wouldn't call it special
[10:52] <catphish> but not standard from disk
[10:52] <catphish> anyway, it seems that vmbuilder installs linux-image-virtual but not the linux-virtual metapackage
[10:53] <catphish> anyway, i'm not sure if this matters any more
[10:53] <w_a> with the command taskset you can lock a prosess to a core/tread but it is posible to use that command when starting a program so you lock it to a cpu from start of program ?  i have 4 game servers i want to use treads 4 to 8. each time i start them up. (sorry for bad english)
[10:57] <ame> hi i have wrongly saved a directory in /tmp but unfortunately my computer gets restarted and i lost the folder....How to recover the folder??
[10:57] <ame> Its nearly 12 GB
[10:57] <jatt> ame: recover the file from your backup
[10:58] <ame> jatt:I dont backup the server at the time
[10:58] <jatt> ame: if you had no backup for that file then the file was not important
[10:58] <jatt> ame: as far as I know there is no other way to recover the file
[10:58] <ame> jatt:i have searched my backup but i cannot find the directory

[12:48] <BluesKaj> kestasjk, did I say you were? just a freindly reminder for your security's sake
[12:48] <undernet> brasilian server webmaster
[12:56] <dmtarmey> BlueKaj yes worked before updating
[12:59] <BluesKaj> dmtarmey, have you checked your sound settings in whatever desktop you're using ?
[12:59] <dannymichel> I purchased an SSD mainly to improve performance in games on Windows, but i use Ubuntu as a secondary OS for work etc. It's only 250GBs and I was wondering if I would get close to the same performance if I were to run the / partition on the SSD and run /home on the old hard drive.
[13:02] <kestasjk> dannymichel, sounds reasonable, but you might want to have /var and /usr on the ssd too really, and it depends what you do with /home
[13:03] <dannymichel> Gotcha
[13:03] <dannymichel> so 3 partitions - /var /usr and / on SSD and /home on old HDD
[13:04] <dannymichel> How big should those 3 partitions be if i plan on having the install for a while and install a decent amount of things on Ubuntu?
[13:05] <kestasjk> dannymichel, if youre running a massive mysql database the answer will be different than if youll be installing hundreds of large apps
[13:05] <dannymichel> i won't be running huge databases, and maybe mid-size applications
[13:07] <kestasjk> dannymichel, I dont know, these days if youre short on space you might as well use a single / partition and just have seperate partitions for your large high-latency/stream files
[13:07] <dannymichel> gotcha
[13:08] <dannymichel> i think ill make /var /usr and /home combined 60GBs and /home like 100gbs on the old HDD
[13:08] <ukernyanz> Hi, I have a problem with my power management settings in Cinnamon desktop. All settings (timer, sleep, screen power off) that I have done are ignored
[13:09] <ukernyanz> Nothing happens after idle
[13:09] <kestasjk> makes sense
[13:11] <dmtarmey> BlueKaj what do you mean, im trying to play yourtube and it sound level is on mAXIMUM
[13:15] <dannymichel> kestasjk quick question. Which partitions generally get bigger in size order for /var /usr and /
[13:15] <dannymichel> is / the largest?
[13:15] <sdefresne> #touch
[13:16] <OpenTokix>  /usr is usually bigger then /
[13:16] <dannymichel> thanks
[13:16] <OpenTokix> ie. - if you divide / and  /usr - /usr will be the bigger of the two
[13:17] <kestasjk> on a linux desktop
[13:17] <dannymichel> so ill do 20GB for /usr/ 20 for / and 10gb for /var
[13:17] <kestasjk> is there any reason these days to split partitions by the way?
[13:17] <kestasjk> (when theyre on the same disk?)
[13:17] <OpenTokix> yes, esp. /var - since if you fill up / and /var is there - your machine can be.... weird
[13:17] <Pici> IMO, split off /home/ leave the rest on /
 in my power options , sleep is greyed out i cant select it , any ideas ? i just enabled all power savings options in bios. using ubuntu studio 14.04
[13:18] <dannymichel> my main thing is i want to keep performance from my new SSD but also have space Pici  so i wanted to run some on the sad and /home on the old HDD
[13:20] <kestasjk> whats weird is I didnt notice much of a performance gain from my ssd I have to say
[13:20] <dannymichel> would / on the SSD and /home on the old HDD give me performance close to what i would have if it was all SSD Pici ?
[13:21] <kestasjk> it depends what you are accessing on the /home drive -_- if is a huge number of tiny / random access files then no it won't perform as well, if it's a bunch of movies and music it will
[13:23] <dannymichel> maybe ill leave everything on the SSD and just put the 16gb swap on the old HDD
[13:23] <k1l> dannymichel: do plan to use swap for swapping?
[13:24] <dannymichel> uh yeha i guess
[13:24] <k1l> because swap is really really slow in comparison to todays ram.
[13:24] <dannymichel> yeah*
[13:24] <k1l> so headless compiling etc is fine. but on gui programs you will see slowing down with swap used.
[13:25] <kestasjk> dannymichel, since youre using the hdd for swap space perhaps you could use the ssd for .tar archival?

[13:28] <ichilton_> Hi
[13:28] <circ-user-DpTJK> but shows only this results. any idea?
[13:29] <ichilton_> I installed ubuntu-gnome-desktop on an ubuntu-14.10 install (think I could switch between standard ubuntu desktop and gnome) and it's messed up ubuntu desktop - it's now half unity (panel, background, title bars etc) and half gnome (the system panel/tray, the system theme terminal is using etc).
[13:29] <ichilton_> How do I fix unity, and can I have both unity and gnome co-exist independantly so I can switch at login?
[13:30] <asdpew> Hi, how to set mask for folder ?
[13:32] <lotuspsychje> ichilton: you could try the fix broken packages from grub recoverymode
[13:32] <lotuspsychje> ichilton: to make ubuntu desktop work properly again
[13:33] <zmbmartin> Are many problems encountered when upgrading from release to release? I have always used a rolling release linux like gentoo or arch.
[13:35] <lotuspsychje> !release | zmbmartin
[13:36] <lotuspsychje> zmbmartin: wich release to wich do you want to do?
[13:36] <ichilton> lotuspsychje: I can boot/use the system fine - it's just the desktop is half-half
[13:38] <lotuspsychje> ichilton: you want to use both?
[13:40] <ichilton> lotuspsychje: I wanted to switch between them (at login)
[13:41] <lotuspsychje> ichilton: can you try to create a new user, to test if that also corrupts unity ?
[13:44] <kc4zvw> How does one change the init runlevel in the boot process?
[13:44] <ikonia> you should always boot to 2
[13:44] <ikonia> there shoulnd't be a need to change it
[13:44] <ikonia> (using ubuntu's model)
[13:46] <ichilton> lotuspsychje: Created a new user and it's messed up there too.
[13:47] <circ-user-DpTJK> does logrotate don't run in group writabe directories?
[13:48] <circ-user-DpTJK> I saw mailing lists " This is not true. It would appear that files are also ignored because of  some unspecified "bad" file modes, which include being group writeable. "

[14:10] <lduros> hi, I have an ext4 formatted external hard drive which is connected to a laptop in my private network. I would like to set up a file server so that I can access the external drive from elsewhere on the network. What package would be best to use for this?
[14:11] <jatt> nfs⁻common
[14:11] <El-Osmodivs> Pricey, yesterday I was trying to find my printers ink level, but could not because I was in the printers group, I dont want to have that issue again with other hardware or whatever
[14:11] <jatt> !nfs-common
[14:11] <jatt> !nfs
[14:11] <lduros> alright, thanks
[14:12] <jatt> yw
[14:12] <Pricey> El-Osmodivs: That's probably the correct way to go about it. Don't just blindly give yourself e.g. the disk group as that will cause demons to appear and eat your kittens.

[14:17] <netzhaut> hey there. Quick question: has anyone else here the problem that the CPU *regularly* clocks down to 200-300 MHZ ?
[14:18] <hariom> kc4zvm: Already in full screen mode. I have installed downloaded VirtualGuestAddition.iso and ran the file. Do I need to install anything else? I have dkms, build-essential etc installed.
[14:18] <rafaelcpalmeida> Can anyone help me with reverse proxy and virtual hosts using apache?
[14:18] <netzhaut> I've explicitly turned off speed step in the BIOS so I can get the default speeds always
[14:18] <hariom> kc4zvm: Note that I don't have gui. Its all command line Ubuntu.
[14:18] <netzhaut> but cpufreq-info regularly reports that my CPUs run at 200-300 MHZ instead of 1.9 GHZ
[14:18] <jatt> cpu scaling
[14:19] <netzhaut> jatt, see above. I turned speed stepp off in the bios
[14:19] <VRocker> hi all :)
[14:20] <netzhaut> jatt, and even if it were on... 200 MHZ?! Come one...
[14:20] <netzhaut> *Come on
[14:20] <VRocker> wondering if someone could help me... anyone good with serial ports?
[14:20] <jatt> netzhaut: that looks fishy indeed
[14:23] <netzhaut> maybe I'll turn speed step back on and see how it behaves then
[14:24] <hariom> kc4zvm: Virtualbox guest addition only works for graphics environment and not text environment?

[14:33] <abaday> I remembewr there was some command like "route <IP_ADDRESS>", but this one doesnt work

[14:34] <Pici> abaday: 'route' and 'ip route' will both show how your routes are setup.

[14:36] <Cheaterman> Hello buddies, hope you're doing good today :-)
[14:37] <Cheaterman> I'm about to use the boot-repair utility to repair a Win7 MBR from Ubuntu Live, and noticed there's no IRC channel specific to it
[14:37] <hariom> kc4zvm: http://www.mikeplate.com/2011/11/08/change-virtual-console-resolution-on-ubuntu/
[14:37] <Cheaterman> As it seems to be a Ubuntu-specific tool, I figured I could come here :-)
[14:38] <EriC^^> abaday: routel ?
[14:39] <k1l> Cheaterman: so you want grub or the windows boot thingy?
[14:39] <EriC^^> Cheaterman: boot-repair can fix windows mbr?
[14:40] <Cheaterman> EriC^^: Well :/ according to some forum entries, yes, but it does it by using the good ole SysLinux :-)
[14:40] <Cheaterman> k1l: Windows thingy - I don't have any partition to install GRUB's stage2
[14:41] <k1l> Cheaterman: if you want to repait the windows thingy you will need windows support. grab a cd or usb from them and run their repair tool
[14:41] <Cheaterman> k1l: That's correct, however my download speed is horrible :-) I'm currently downloading something that could help, but in the meantime, I figured I could try some hacks
[14:42] <EriC^^> Cheaterman: wait a second
[14:42] <EriC^^> what are you trying to do here, get a boot loader or you want to restore the windows mbr?
[14:42] <Cheaterman> Well, we borked the stage2 of Windows' bootloader, so I'm merely trying to get the OS to boot :-)
[14:43] <Cheaterman> (we had a partition to format, unfortunately there was a leftover bootsect there, and even more unfortunate - it was being used hehe.)
[14:43] <EriC^^> oh ok
[14:45] <Cheaterman> Wow that boot-repair utility is very good, it saved all relevant data inside the partition
[14:45] <Cheaterman> I have logs of what happened, backups of the old mbr, etc etc
[14:48] <alipoor90> How I can change "foo="some stuff here"" to "foo="bar"" with sed?
[14:48] <Cheaterman> alipoor90: sed 's/foo="some stuff here"/foo="bar"/g'
[14:49] <Cheaterman> alipoor90: that would do it multiple times per line if it encounters foo="some stuff here" more than once per line :-) hence the g

[14:54] <Segfault_> Hi. I'm upgrading some desktops running Xubuntu remotely. Is there a way for me to trigger a reboot prompt? I don't want to force a reboot, just politely ask the user to reboot their desktop. Most update managers have this feature, I just don't know how to trigger it manually. Can anyone here help me?

[15:00] <kanuku> How can I add an existing user to a group? When I do : [useradd -G docker jenkins] I gent an error [useradd: user 'jenkins' already exists]
[15:01] <Cheaterman> kanuku: Oho.
[15:01] <Cheaterman> Two techniques
[15:01] <VRocker> kanuku: usermod -a -G docker jenkins iirc
[15:01] <Cheaterman> the most common is gpasswd -a GROUP USER
[15:01] <VRocker> somethign along those lines anyway
[15:01] <Cheaterman> kanuku: But like VRocker said, I usually do usermod -aG GROUP USER
[15:02] <kanuku> Cheaterman: Usermod, that is what I was looking for!! Thnx 2 both
[15:03] <Cheaterman> No problems - it has to be noted the two solutions we gave you are _strictly_ equivalent, with gpasswd being the most commonly used nowadays :-)
[15:04] <Cheaterman> MUAHAHHAHAA ALMOST TOO EASY
[15:04] <Cheaterman> That boot-repair thing is just AWESOME
[15:04] <Cheaterman> SysLinux used to be a PITA to configure, without a nice GUI like that
[15:05] <Cheaterman> Now time to fix the BIOS to set the proper boot device, should be painless enough
[15:06] <Cheaterman> I was laughing hard when I told him "worst case scenario, we'll use GRUB to load your Windows"
[15:06] <kanuku> Cheaterman: it is the other way around -> gpasswd -a USER GROUP. Thnx again :D
[15:06] <Cheaterman> But actually, I'm now using syslinux xD
[15:06] <Cheaterman> kanuku: OH sorry! you're correct!!!
[15:07] <Cheaterman> Since gpasswd by definition operates on the group, the "last" argument is the group :-) makes sense
[15:07] <Cheaterman> anyways you're very welcome kanuku, glad I could help ^__^
[15:10] <machty> i'm a devops noob trying to do things manually for the time being

[15:10] <machty> but i don't actually know where i should put this server code that's "idiomatic"

[15:12] <saleem> hi, how to play a mkv file in ubuntu? i tried vlc, mplayer,umplayer but none seems to be able to play it
[15:13] <Safa_[A_boy]> Hello. How can I reload the joystick configurations?
[15:14] <auronandace> saleem: if i recall correctly mkv is a container format, it could be any codec that made the video
[15:14] <auronandace> saleem: all the mkv files i got play with vlc fine on ubuntu
[15:14] <krux> same here
[15:15] <saleem> auronandace, ok i will look for codecs format on synaptic but im sure i have installed all the possible codecs already
[15:15] <krux> sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-esd mozilla-plugin-vlc
[15:15] <saleem> thanks krux will try this as well
[15:16] <Cheaterman> Hahaha /me parted #windows with « Linux is easier than Windows nowadays »
[15:16] <krux> or try installing ubuntu-restricted-extras
[15:16] <Netham45> Cheaterman, You're special.
[15:16] <Cheaterman> So yeah, just letting y'all know, syslinux can boot a Windows stage2, and "boot-repair" utility does it nicely
[15:16] <Cheaterman> Netham45: Am I though :P
[15:16] <saleem> vlc-plugin-esd isnt available
[15:16] <saleem> im on ubuntu precise
[15:16] <Cheaterman> So gratz to Ubuntu for having that utility ^__^ really helped me today!

[15:24] <auronandace> chp: have you checked alsamixer to see if any channels are muted?
[15:25] <chp> yes, all checked, and removed pulse-audio too, so it does not interfere
[15:25] <chp> still no sound

[15:52] <HoloPed> hi all, how do I see all the ports in the system? I'm trying to find the serial port on a MinnowBoard Max
[15:52] <HoloPed> <-- linux noob
[15:53] <cfhowlett> !ports | HoloPed
[15:53] <VRocker> HoloPed: tried dmesg | grep tty?
[15:53] <jason^^> i've been noticing that my notifications are coming in as a colored banner on the very top left of my screen. Is there a way to switch that back to normal one
[15:53] <HoloPed> VRocker, that did nothing
[15:54] <VRocker> :/
[15:54] <HoloPed> that means the port is not .. installed ?
[15:54] <HoloPed> or something ?
[15:54] <zezinho> sdfsdf
[15:55] <VRocker> sounds like it isn't detecting it, or it's named differently but i'm pretty sure serial ports always start with tty

[15:57] <ikonia> RLGyde: because there is no development release for you
[15:57] <ikonia> RLGyde: a.) 10.04 is EOL b.) there are no development releases for you
[15:58] <RLGyde> ikonia: 10.04.4 LTS have EOL April 2015 (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases)
[15:58] <auronandace> RLGyde: that applies to servers
[15:58] <ikonia> RLGyde: yes ?
[15:58] <RLGyde> witch I am running...
[15:58] <icloud> ikonia: usermod -l will change username
[15:59] <icloud> that part is working fine, i just have issue with lightdm

[15:59] <b3h3m0th> EriC^^: will apt-get update skip to the later repos if one of them is down ?
[15:59] <ikonia> icloud: fair point
[15:59] <ikonia> RLGyde: ok - then "there is no development release available"
[16:00] <EriC^^> b3h3m0th: i dont think so
[16:00] <RLGyde> ikonia: I get the same error if I do it without -d
[16:00] <cfhowlett> b3h3m0th, "later" repos?
[16:00] <EriC^^> b3h3m0th: it will complain they aren't there and stop i guess
[16:00] <ikonia> RLGyde: what error ?
[16:00] <cfhowlett> b3h3m0th, "can't retrieve, ignoring for now"
[16:01] <RLGyde> ikonia: No new release found
[16:01] <b3h3m0th> In the sense I have 5 repos in /etc/apt/sources.list and the 3rd one is blocked in my college firewall (say tor repo). Then will apt-get update run for 4th and 5th ?
[16:01] <auronandace> RLGyde: have you refreshed the repos?
[16:01] <ikonia> RLGyde: are you marking LTS-> LTS, or LTS->non-lts ?

[16:02] <VRocker> so, now the channel seems a bit more active i shall bring my question up again. anyone know what would cause internal serial ports to not work when using their default IRQ but work fine (i use the word 'fine' loosely) when they're set to IRQ 0?
[16:02] <Goose_> So, everytime I go into suspend on my laptop, or just close the lid, my VPN diconnectes, anyone know how to fix?
[16:02] <RLGyde> ikonia: LTS->LTS preferably
[16:02] <Goose_> Or just make my VPN automatically connect when I go online
[16:03] <b3h3m0th> I dont know how but my sources.list is now empty
[16:03] <b3h3m0th> how do I retrieve it ?
[16:03] <ikonia> RLGyde: what is it set to - not what are you trying to do
[16:03] <RLGyde> ikonia: I have tryed both
[16:03] <ikonia> RLGyde: how are you setting it
[16:03] <cfhowlett> b3h3m0th, cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit         and paste the url
[16:04] <RLGyde> ikonia: in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[16:04] <ikonia> RLGyde: if you do sudo apt-get update what do you get

[16:05] <cmullinax> Good morning! I was wondering if I could get some assistance with how to update bios on a dell xps 13 (9333) under 14.10?
[16:05] <cmullinax> New-ish to Ubuntu
[16:06] <RLGyde> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/j1MbFmgX
[16:06] <ikonia> cmullinax: the dell does not have bios tools for ubuntu
[16:06] <ikonia> cmullinax: you need a windows/dos boot media
[16:06] <cfhowlett> b3h3m0th, ah, you've got your pastebin set to default ... not to paste.ubuntu.com.  strangely/sadly default pastebin is blocked here in china.   copy and paste your output to fpaste.org
[16:06] <RLGyde> auronandace: with apt-get update yes
[16:06] <ikonia> RLGyde: looks solid, and if you do an "apt-get dist-upgrade" ?
[16:07] <b3h3m0th> http://fpaste.org/183359/
[16:07] <RLGyde> ikonia: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[16:07] <ikonia> RLGyde: so it's current too
[16:07] <ikonia> RLGyde: most odd
[16:07] <ikonia> it should offer 12.04
[16:08] <RLGyde> ikonia: yes... that where what I where hoping for...
[16:09] <[1]MN> Hey all Gru Rocks
[16:09] <RLGyde> ikonia: It did start out with this error in do-release-upgrade: proxy 'false' looks invalid
[16:09] <cfhowlett> b3h3m0th, ok, yeah your sources list seems to be gone.  best to check in with the mint channels for support.  can't support mint in ubuntu
[16:09] <ikonia> RLGyde: what do you mean it did start out ?
[16:10] <rayyan> hello friends, pls can anyone tell me how to install cobaltsrike on backbox?
[16:10] <bazhang> ask backbox support rayyan
[16:10] <RLGyde> ikonia: I did get rid of that error by removing Acquire::http::Proxy "false"; from /etc/apt/apt.conf
[16:10] <ikonia> RLGyde: why did you remove that
[16:10] <ikonia> RLGyde: proxy:false tells it to not use a proxy
[16:11] <RLGyde> ikonia: and yet, when I run do-release-upgrade with that one on it says: proxy 'false' looks invalid
[16:11] <cfhowlett> rayyan, backbox linux is not supported here in ubuntu.  contact backbox for support of their distro.
[16:11] <bazhang> !alis | rayyan
[16:11] <RLGyde> ikonia: so I have tryed both
[16:12] <ikonia> RLGyde: what happens if you run it without that line
[16:13] <rprakash_> rakash
[16:13] <rayyan> hello room is anyone here, pls i need help
[16:13] <cfhowlett> rayyan, the answer to your question was ask backbox for help.  not supported here.
[16:14] <rayyan> okay
[16:14] <rayyan> is backbox not ubuntu based
[16:14] <RLGyde> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/UmFPN9CX
[16:15] <ikonia> rayyan: it's not ubuntu - they have their own channel on a different IRC network
[16:15] <auronandace> rayyan: ubuntu is based on debian but you can't get ubuntu support in debian
[16:15] <rayyan> alright ikonia, thanks a lot

[16:18] <teward> ... nevermind
[16:20] <azizLIGHT> do people get paid to support here
[16:21] <VRocker> getting paid to idle on irc would be awesome

[16:21] <cfhowlett> canonical offers paid support.  irc --- no.  but feel free to buy me a cuppa.
[16:23] <BluesKaj> hmm the bot info is different for the volunteer prompt that was used a while back

[16:39] <EriC^^> RLGyde: did you run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade earlier?

[17:48] <DocTrax> hm
[17:48] <DocTrax> why is this?
[17:48] <bazhang> why is what
[17:49] <DocTrax> when i do a dist-upgrade the whole system is upgraded
[17:49] <DocTrax> isnt it?
[17:49] <bazhang> no it's not
[17:49] <Pici> No.
[17:49] <Pici> !dist-upgrade | DocTrax
[17:49] <DocTrax> !upgrade
[17:54] <DocTrax> is ubuntu for smartphones also virus endangered like googles android
[17:55] <Riply> It seems to have worked nice - but now, when I place the HDD into the box, it tries to boot, gets to some of the services, but gives me the following error: fsck.ext4 unable to resolve 'UUID......"
[17:55] <cmullinax> woot! solved my bios issue
[17:58] <DocTrax> Riply: do cat /etc/fstab and ls -al /dev/disk/by-uuid/ and compare them
[17:59] <pratik> What is WRONG with this UBANTU ??????? It just hanged when I just pressed Windows Key to open Dash screen , then it got hanged. I had to reboot my lappie. What kind of Operating system you have made ??? Are you really proud of your work ????? I am pissed off bcoz of the hanged Operating system!
[18:00] <Riply> righ, I have done that - what am I looking for? :)
[18:00] <OerHeks> pratik, does winkey work now?
[18:01] <pratik> I think its Ok right now , but it hanged PC last time !
[18:01] <pratik> What if i am on skype and such thing happens ?
[18:01] <EriC^^> Riply: compare the numbers from UUID= in fstab to the respective partitions in /dev/disk/..
[18:01] <pratik> on skype with my client
[18:02] <DocTrax> Riply: look if there are wrong uuids in fstab
[18:02] <OerHeks> pratik, i guess you come here and complain again.
[18:02] <Riply> EriC^^, I understand the instruction, I am just not sure what I am meant to do with the information :) I have never had to use UUIDs before - I don't even know what they are..
[18:02] <[RO]Daniel> it's verry strange pratik, it's a thousand things that could trigger that, not necesary ubuntu's fault
[18:02] <EriC^^> Riply: it's just an id that identifies a partition
[18:02] <pratik> See it is your fault that you have made Issues in O.S. Not my fault.
[18:03] <pbx> pratik, this is a peer support channel, not a corporate customer complaint line
[18:03] <GraemeLion> pratik: It is not our fault if you don't file bug reports, though.
[18:03] <EriC^^> Riply: instead of using /dev/sdxY in fstab ( which is arbitrarily assigned depending on the disks plugged in ) uuid's provide a more constant way to mount partitions
[18:03] <[RO]Daniel> anyway you should thank this guys for theyre VOLUNTARY hard work, and ask for help/clues/trac problem resolve not to come and say those things
[18:04] <pratik> ok please tell me how to file the case ?
[18:04] <OerHeks> pratik, if it did occured again now, i would advise to file a bug, what do you want us to do now?
[18:04] <Riply> EriC^^ & DocTrax, thanks for the explination :)
[18:04] <nithin> hello
[18:04] <DJones> !bug | pratik
[18:04] <nithin> I have an issue with my desktop
[18:04] <pratik> Ok sorry i would contact software engineer thanks
[18:05] <[RO]Daniel> in order to do that you must know what did you do when that happend...nevermind guess youre too turn on against everything now :)
[18:06] <nithin> I got an update for flash player recently.. I have updated it and restarted the computer. After that when I switch the online flash media to full screen, my computer screen goes black and I can't do anything. I have to hard reset the laptop to regain the access.. Anyone faced the same issue or is there any solution available for this issue?
[18:06] <[RO]Daniel> im curious how many times did u complain to microsoft about all the problems they have (and they have a lot, and you pay for that software) pratik
[18:07] <Riply> alright, so I have the 2 'command's details open here.. on the fdisk, there are 3 UUIDs, however on the /by-uuid there are only 2?
[18:07] <pratik> @[RO]Daniel Sorry dude , I just forgot that
[18:07] <nithin> anybody there to help me out?
[18:08] <DocTrax> Riply: usally this means that u removed a hdd - an external one maybe?
[18:08] <BluesKaj> nithin, which browser?
[18:08] <nithin> its chromium.
[18:09] <nithin> it happens in chromium..
[18:09] <[RO]Daniel> for chromium you better use pepperflash plugin
[18:09] <BluesKaj> try chrome instead, it has builtin flash that actually works
[18:09] <Riply> DocTrax, nope, there's only one HDD in it now.
[18:09] <jhutchins> !chrome
[18:09] <azus> Hi everybody
[18:10] <nithin> so I should disable the flash player from chromium and have to use pepper flash instead. am I correct?
[18:10] <BluesKaj> bbl
[18:11] <nithin> but it is a work around right.. not a fix.. the funny thing is that how could a flash player block the access to my computer..
[18:11] <DocTrax> Riply: so do sudo fdisk -l , are there 3 partitions?
[18:11] <nithin> the screen went black and I could not do anything
[18:11] <EriC^^> Riply: what's the mountpoint of the missing uuid? ( second column )
[18:11] <nithin> had to hard reboot the laptop..
[18:11] <azus> i want to uninstall opera which i have installed with the debian paquage . How can i do ?
[18:12] <Riply> DocTrax, there is a sda1 sda2 and sda3
[18:12] <utopia> hello dear people....
[18:12] <assemblyx> who here has a virus protection installed for linux?
[18:12] <daftykins> azus: installed with what?
[18:12] <daftykins> !antivirus
[18:13] <daftykins> assemblyx: ^
[18:13] <Riply> EriC^^ is is the /boot mount point
[18:13] <assemblyx> I KNOW RIGHT!!!!
[18:13] <[RO]Daniel> sometimes happends on some hardware with the flash plugin, maybe because conflicting with something on clean install should work fine, but anyway on chromium pepper flash works best
[18:13] <EriC^^> Riply: ok, and if you type sudo blkid , the UUID doesn't show up?
[18:13] <azus> daftykins, with the debian paquets
[18:13] <utopia> i have a question.... Every time my computer got sleep or i reboot it, i need to reset my router, cause the internet connection, wi fi, does not work anymore...after reinitiating my router, yand my notebook, then works perfectly
[18:13] <assemblyx> so the company im working for is telling me i have no choice but to install END POINT protection or i cant use the network with my development laptop
[18:13] <nithin> Thank you Daniel...
[18:14] <daftykins> azus: yeah what is that? you can't use the same words as the first time and expect it to provide more understanding :)
[18:14] <Riply> EriC^^correct! Does that mean it's not mounted?
[18:14] <[RO]Daniel> you welcome
[18:14] <EriC^^> Riply: are you in the installation right now?
[18:14] <nithin> I will try the pepper flash...
[18:14] <assemblyx> these guys have people convinced linux needs virus protection
[18:14] <assemblyx> http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH101598
[18:15] <EriC^^> Riply: type mount or df to see what's mounted
[18:15] <nithin> bye...
[18:15] <assemblyx> and now im going to have to downgrade my ubuntu cause they dont support 14.10
[18:15] <[RO]Daniel> bye
[18:15] <nithin> one more question?
[18:15] <[RO]Daniel> yes
[18:15] <assemblyx> pure jokes do you agree?
[18:15] <nithin> is pepper flash a good software.. I mean it won't steal any personal information like credit card information. Right?
[18:15] <daftykins> assemblyx: yeah, installing non-LTS was a mistake
[18:16] <[RO]Daniel> nithin
[18:16] <assemblyx> im a noob though
[18:16] <nithin> Tell me Daniel..
[18:16] <assemblyx> it was the default installation on ubuntu page
[18:16] <[RO]Daniel> pepperflashplugin-nonfree is from UBUNTU Software Center
[18:16] <assemblyx> like i know way more now
[18:16] <assemblyx> what does LTS stand for?
[18:16] <[RO]Daniel> so...anything is from ubuntu software center its safe
[18:17] <Pici> !lts | assemblyx
[18:17] <[RO]Daniel> it's by default, it's there after ubuntu check it and so on
[18:17] <nithin> alright.. thank you so much Daniel.. take care..
[18:18] <[RO]Daniel> about ppa's you should be carefoul/suspicious, but software center no problem
[18:18] <assemblyx> ok, but they are not supporting 14.04 and that is LTS
[18:18] <[RO]Daniel> you welcome
[18:18] <nithin> thank you Daniel....you were very helpful.. have a great day... Take care.. bye
[18:18] <assemblyx> and i am 14.04 my bad
[18:18] <OEP> So in automount from 12.04 to 14.04, I used to be able to leave off the map-type and it would guess (correctly) that my map type is LDAP. Has something changed? It doesn't do that any more.
[18:18] <assemblyx> just checked the stats
[18:18] <assemblyx> phew, had me freaked out for a second
[18:19] <[RO]Daniel> im glad i was able to help, u 2 bye
