[16:57] <trism> ash_workz: strange, not really sure what is up, if I were messing around with it I would create a completely new .desktop file (maybe just copy the old one to a new name in ~/.local/share/applications/ ) then log out back in and see what you find in the dash...can you pastebin the whole .desktop file? maybe sometime got messed up in it
[16:57] <hicoleri> crazyzurfer: anyway i'm out of ideas
[16:57] <crazyzurfer> hicoleri: nope, just formatted it and installed ubuntu
[16:58] <hicoleri> crazyzurfer: Can you give me an estimate?
[16:58] <ash_workz> trism: I will, but right now I am gonna try the old icon
[16:58] <hicoleri> of the data transfer speed?
[16:58] <ash_workz> trism: see what happens
[16:58] <ash_workz> trism: brb
[16:59] <Rarrikins> crazyzurfer: You can set up `/tmp` to actually use `tmpfs` rather than disk.
[16:59] <_0xbadc0de> hmm, so about ubuntu server
[16:59] <_0xbadc0de> how do you suggest that I should transfer data between my host and my guest ubuntu server vm?
[17:01] <hicoleri> (Okay I need to go now.)
[17:01] <crazyzurfer> hicoleri: It's a Desktop computer, with 32 gb ram, 1gb video AMD, i7 vpro 3,4 GHz 8 threads, 500 GB HDD
[17:01] <raspy> when creating lvm volumes, is it expected for some disk space not to be usable? I created an lvm volume with 700GB but only 670 of that is usable
[17:01] <Rarrikins> crazyzurfer: There's also https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/30286/can-i-configure-my-linux-system-for-more-aggressive-file-system-caching
[17:02] <ash_workz> trism: that didn't do anything; I'll revert and paste
[17:03] <crazyzurfer> Rarrikins: cools, i'll give it a look
[17:04] <vortex_> anybody good with zsh?
[17:05] <vortex_> im trying to run a shell script in my zshrc for my prompt but it only runs the script once for the current directory
[17:06] <vortex_> its a du script to show directory size
[17:09] <Pinkamena_D> any way to paste a script line by line?
[17:10] <vortex_> pastebin.com
[17:10] <raspy> Pinkamena_D: i believe use |
[17:10] <Pinkamena_D> ?
[17:10] <fivekeys> ls
[17:10] <fivekeys> oops :-)
[17:11] <raspy> Pinkamena_D: let me try to find an example I did
[17:11] <ash_workz> in vim; to delete until "!", you could use `df!`; is there a yank equivalent?
[17:12] <raspy> Pinkamena_D: hope this helps http://pastebin.com/DM3HSpbK
[17:13] <fivekeys> ash_workz: usually you just change d for y and stuff works :P
[17:13] <raspy> oh Pinkamena_D sorry, you meant paste in here :)
[17:13] <laps> Hi guys! Someone can help me to resolve a problem with SystemRescueCD?
[17:13] <Pinkamena_D> raspy: no not really
[17:14] <Pinkamena_D> I have a bunch of R packages to install listed in a row, I want to copy all of them, but only paste one line at a time, so that I can check for errors.
[17:14] <raspy> Pinkamena_D: oh okay well in that case, look at my pastebin
[17:16] <Aterfax> Anyone know how to check the currently forwarded ports by miniupnpd?
[17:19] <andywork> Aterfax: use the -l parameter
[17:19] <Aterfax> That ok if its already running?
[17:19] <Aterfax> Running it as a service
[17:20] <_0xbadc0de> how can I set up ubunto server's SFTP»
[17:20] <Aterfax> Doesn't seem to have an -l option
[17:21] <energizer> I'm getting a new computer, with a 250G SSD and a larger HDD. How would you recommend I arrange partitions?
[17:21] <trijntje> energizer: put root on ssd, home on hdd
[17:22] <Aterfax> _0xbadc0de, http://www.krizna.com/ubuntu/setup-ftp-server-on-ubuntu-14-04-vsftpd/
[17:22] <tgm4883> energizer: on SSD: 30GB partition for /   small partition for SWAP, /home for rest of SSD. Then mount the HDD somewhere else and symlink directories based on large stuff you want to store there
[17:23] <Lope> I can't find MMT, Myanmar or Burma inside /usr/share/zoneinfo/ ? any ideas?
[17:24] <Rarrikins> Aterfax: SFTP isn't FTP.
[17:24] <Aterfax> No kidding
[17:24] <Aterfax> hence why it details setting up SFTP
[17:24] <Rarrikins> Aterfax: Ahh, sorry.
[17:25] <energizer> tgm4883: what make you prefer home on ssd?
[17:25] <fivekeys> I'd also put everything on ssd... I'd even partition automatically :P
[17:26] <energizer> how come?
[17:26] <tgm4883> energizer: 250gb is a little large just for /. Plus things in my home directory are usually things I want to start fast (documents, games, etc)
[17:27] <b-yeezi> Pinkamena_D: Just create an R script that does trycatch(install.packages(pkg, pkg)
[17:27] <tgm4883> energizer: why wouldn't you want your home directory on an SSD?
[17:27] <fivekeys> even if it was 128GB it would be more than enough for me to put everything on it, so why not?
[17:28] <energizer> so maybe my question should be trijntje, what makes you prefer your approach?
[17:29] <b-yeezi> Pinkamena_D: You can put them all in one script if you use trycatch() effectively
[17:29] <energizer> Pinkamena_D: i wasnt in here for your original question, but you might take a look at the r package pacman
[17:29] <inlimbo> energizer, SSD is faster than a normal HDD, besides , `/` wouldnt need all of the 250gb.
[17:30] <trijntje> energizer: that was based on my own setup, where I also have windows (and my games) on the ssd. If you only have ubuntu, 250GB should be plenty for both your home and /, and you can put the really large files on the HDD as suggested by tgm
[17:30] <Pinkamena_D> b-yeezi: looking at it
[17:31] <tgm4883> energizer: I think trijntje longs for the good old days when you could make a pot of coffee when you open a document
[17:31] <energizer> ahahahhaha
[17:32]  * inlimbo wasnt born back then
[17:38] <nemo> So... Ubuntu gave me a big scary warning on several of my machines recently about 14.04 no longer getting critical security fixes
[17:38] <b-yeezi> Pinkamena_D: Also, If you use RStudio, you can create a basic file with install.packages() and hit ctrl-enter in each line to run it.
[17:38] <nemo> I thought 14.04 LTS was going to be maintained for a couple more years?
[17:39] <Rarrikins> nemo: It will be good until 2019.
[17:39] <texla> I recently upgraded two computers from 14.04.4 to 16.04.1 during the startup jut prior to login the message that /dev/sda6 clean files and blocks that will time out and proceed to login how do i remove the clean message
[17:39] <nemo> Rarrikins: hrm... so.  what does this warning about unsupported hardware actually mean? am I putting myself in any serious risk?
[17:39] <nemo> Rarrikins: I didn't feel like moving to Devuan just yet.
[17:40] <Rarrikins> nemo: Does it specifically mention hardware?
[17:40] <nemo> Rarrikins: yeah
[17:40] <Rarrikins> nemo: I'm not sure about that, then.
[17:40] <nemo> like. happened on my dell precision laptop just today
[17:41] <nemo> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/1404_HWE_EOL
[17:41] <nemo> Rarrikins: just found this ↑
[17:41] <BetaSoul> How do I get Avahi to broadcast multiple hosts, just a jekins.local, magic.local, etc?
[17:42] <nemo> ew. no more kernel updates
[17:42] <nemo> hm... maybe I just need to get off this HWE kernel
[17:43] <nemo> I wonder what features I'll lose
[17:43] <Rarrikins> nemo: Try its suggestion of running `hwe-support-status --verbose`.
[17:43] <nemo> 'There is a graphics stack installed on this system.'
[17:44] <nemo> Rarrikins: yeah, that doesn't seem too informative
[17:44] <nemo> Radeon HD 6970M/6990M... not sure why that would matter. maybe something HDMIish
[17:44] <nemo> relp. guess I need to figure out how to get off of HWE w/o switching to 16.04
[17:44] <nemo> *welp
[17:46] <texla> I recently upgraded two computers from 14.04.4 to 16.04.1 during the startup just prior to login the message that /dev/sda6 clean files and blocks that will time out and proceed to login how do i remove the clean message
[17:47] <tgm4883> nemo: you should be able to move to a newer HWE https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[17:47] <weust> hello
[17:48] <BetaSoul> Anybody? I'm trying to get Avahi and Nginx working at the same time on one machine, letting nginx proxy another app not on the 8080 port to 8080
[17:49] <weust> I pressed some key (combo) and now my X window (with Kodi) shows in the top left of my screen. tried searching for shortcuts, but can´t find them. Anyone know how to get to full screen again?
[17:51] <Guest12662> hello
[17:51] <energizer> Guest12662: hello!
[17:52] <nemo> tgm4883: oh...
[17:52] <nemo> tgm4883: I guess I misunderstood
[17:52] <nemo> tgm4883: I thought I had to switch over to 16.04 entirely. thanks for the link
[17:52] <tgm4883> nemo: yw
[17:53] <nemo> tgm4883: strange... after running the recommended command, said I was fine
[17:53] <nemo> tgm4883: guess the scary HWE message isn't actually checking those package versions
[17:53] <nemo> xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-xenial is already the newest version.
[17:53] <b-yeezi> I just added infinality font config. So far, everything looks great
[17:54] <tgm4883> nemo: when's the last time it was rebooted? It could be installed but not running yet
[17:54] <nemo> oh duh
[17:54] <theseb> Any idea why wifi would randomly die when resume after sleep but not always?
[17:54]  * nemo facepalms
[17:54] <theseb> Also, sometimes it asks me for the wifi password after an hour or so and
[17:54] <theseb> sometimes it doesn't all day!?
[17:54] <nemo> rebooting. yes. that thing I do once in a blue moon 😃
[17:55] <ubuntu-mate> hey

[17:59] <Guest12662> cos ya mams good at sex talking
[17:59] <h1> a mother interested in linux would be quite cool
[17:59] <OerHeks> kids, take that 'social talk' elsewere please, this is Ubuntu support
[17:59] <tgm4883> *whispers* And here we have two wild neanderthals out of their natural habitat. Let's be careful and try not to spook them
[18:01] <SpaceBear> not sure this is the right place to ask, but I have an PC/server with ubuntu and files spread over 2x 1TB wd blacks and a 3tb Seagate, my router has full 1g switch on it, when ftping files between my desktop and server, the file transfer speed will start at say 60-70mbytes/s then drop to <10mbytes/s
[18:01] <texla> I recently upgraded two computers from 14.04.4 to 16.04.1 during the startup jut prior to login the message that /dev/sda6 clean files and blocks that will time out and proceed to login how do i remove the clean message
[18:01] <SpaceBear> does anyone know why the speed is dropping? I'm using fileZilla, and this is a recent problem
[18:03] <OerHeks> "Once your RAM and Disk Buffers are full, which might take several minutes the true Disk IO speed shows"
[18:04] <Jkessler> I'm new to raid and I failed a drive, thinking I could easily readd it.  Now it's flagged faulty. I searched and tried adding and reassembling with this command mdadm --assemble --force /dev/md0 $OVERLAYS -- "cat /proc/mdstat" and "mdadm --detail /dev/md0" output: http://hastebin.com/iluxomavuq.sm -- Both drives are brand new.  It says /dev/sda1 is busy but I can't see what it's doing and how do I remove the faulty flag?  Thanks.
[18:04] <Jkessler> wrong channel! sry.
[18:04] <SpaceBear> OerHeks: they're 7200prm drives and should have a speed of about 70~ mbytes a second, 2 weeks ago I was basically getting that speed.
[18:05] <Jkessler> but i will accept help here
[18:05] <Jkessler> :)
[18:05] <OerHeks> lots of small files/folders... ?
[18:05] <SpaceBear> no, large files of about 10gbs
[18:05] <SpaceBear> I limit it to one at a time
[18:05] <swensson> When I edit /etc/network/interfaces, ( http://dpaste.com/2QAFPWP ) line 1 (enp3s0:0) works, but line 4 (enp3s0:1) dosn't...? Am I doing something wrong?
[18:06] <Rarrikins> SpaceBear: You can check network speeds with https://askubuntu.com/a/7977/147763
[18:07] <aes_> y tf
[18:07] <aes_> is the ip shown
[18:07] <SpaceBear> thanks Rarrikins I'll see if that yields any results: does it have a windows version? otherwise i gotta test it in a vm which might add overhead
[18:08] <Rarrikins> aes_: You mean for you on here?
[18:09] <aes_> yes
[18:09] <aes_> i can see people's ips
[18:09] <Jkessler> not mine :>
[18:10] <Rarrikins> aes_: If you use XChat or irssi, you can do a bunch of steps to get an IP cloak to hide yours.
[18:10] <aes_> xD
[18:10] <aes_> i am using a vpn
[18:11] <aes_> so it's fine

[18:13] <aladdin> it is possible to install unity8 currently with Yakkety ?
[18:13] <aladdin> I got this error http://www.hastebin.com/jatizuraka.vhdl
[18:14] <EriC^^> aladdin: yes, it's not that functional though
[18:14] <aladdin> EriC^^: I can't install it

[18:15] <MonkeyDust> reactos is still in alpha
[18:15] <macskay> hi guys, got a question regarding vhosts. A mate got a domain running and I got a server running. At the moment I have multiple domains running on it, which are registered with the server. however I want to add the domain of my mate to my server as well. Can I do that, when his domain is from another provider and registered with my server?
[18:15] <macskay> *not registered
[18:15] <EriC^^> aladdin: try sudo apt-get install unity8
[18:16] <aladdin> EriC^^: other errors
[18:16] <EriC^^> macskay: yeah, you have to set the domain's nameserver to point to your server's ip
[18:16] <EriC^^> aladdin: paste
[18:17] <macskay> EriC^^: 	In the webinterface of the domain, right?
[18:17] <aladdin> EriC^^: http://www.hastebin.com/fulegodapa.vhdl
[18:17] <EriC^^> macskay: yeah
[18:20] <BetaSoul> Still trying to broadcast two hosts from Avahi if any one wants to help.
[18:27] <snares> does anyone have any recent guides on dual booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu with a UEFI laptop? I have found a few but they are old and seem fairly tricky
[18:28] <aqwe> snares: boot-repair did the trick for me
[18:29] <akik> snares: i did it by installing grub to the efi partition and adding grubx64.efi to the bios boot entries
[18:29] <swensson> When I edit /etc/network/interfaces, ( http://dpaste.com/2QAFPWP ) line 1 (enp3s0:0) works, but line 4 (enp3s0:1) dosn't...? Am I doing something wrong?
[18:29] <akik> or is it called uefi boot entries
[18:30] <snares> akik: I was hoping to get away with a simple GUI point and click haha. Guess it still takes some elbow grease to get everything working then
[18:32] <akik> snares: the first part is point and click :)

[18:36] <snares> haha
[18:36] <nemo> nexusguy59: that's why I always say /msg nickserv hi
[18:37] <energizer> Why is it called ack-grep instead of ack?
[18:38] <nexusguy59> Yeah I will do that for now one that is very annoying thanks

[19:14] <OerHeks> ac3jasper, this is ubuntu support only.
[19:14] <ioria> ubunt18,  told you.... logs ... but check this out http://superuser.com/questions/1114398/cannot-login-to-any-user-on-ubuntu-16-04-1-other-than-guest/1114418
[19:15] <ubunt18> pls dont take offense, but if 'no one'  knows why this is occuring, i'd rather take my chances with another distro, than ask my NON tech head brother to possibly deal with this kind of tech headache,im sure anyone else would do the same for their family member right / ;))
[19:15] <ubunt18> checking ..
[19:16] <ioria> ubunt18,   btw, check ls -al ~/.Xauthority   and you should provide logs
[19:16] <ubunt18> I wont do that
[19:16] <ioria> _^
[19:16] <ubunt18> as I szaid I have no time for this kind of crap
[19:16] <ubunt18> I barely found time to put his computer4 together,,in a windows 10 USER ;0
[19:16] <ubunt18> but ...
[19:17] <ubunt18> he did NOT want to put out for windows ( money) so I suggested we/he try linux ;))
[19:17] <ioria> ubunt18,  that's good
[19:17] <ubunt18> I think that was a mistake ;)
[19:17] <ubunt18> not if it means dealing with nonsense like this, its not ;)
[19:17] <ubunt18> reading url you gave me, one moment(s)
[19:18] <dr4c4n> hi has anyone tried to use ldaps with phpldapadmin? I'm getting an error that says: ldap_connect(): Could not create session handle
[19:18] <ubunt18> ioria: regardless what I decide, ty for taking YOUr time to help
[19:18] <ioria> ubunt18,  no prob
[19:20] <ubunt18> ioria: I dont thin it was a username,,its just :craigjohnson ;)
[19:20] <ioria> ubunt18,  oky
[19:20] <ubunt18> does ubuntu 16 freak out over,,time,,,with long usernames possibly ??
[19:22] <ioria> ubunt18,  getconf LOGIN_NAME_MAX
[19:22] <raspy> is there any reason to create a striped logical volume on one disk?
[19:22] <ioria> ubunt18,  kidding, i thionk is 32
[19:23] <ubunt18> lol
[19:23] <ubunt18> alright ;)
[19:24] <ubunt18> well them i'm astounded as to why its doing this..brand new machine, as of a few days ago, brand new ssd blah,,all new,,a brand new install 16.04 lts, I wouldn't expect this ;)
[19:24] <ubunt18> others are seeing it, as your url and user here have shown..so Im not sure my faith in ubuntu is going to stand
[19:24] <dreadkopp> hey guys. i am looking for a way to create a ubuntu live usb stick (both legacy and uefi supporting) with additional drivers/software/settings to the original one. Is there any guide how to do that?
[19:24] <ubunt18> free rocks..but not if such issues happen ;(
[19:25] <ubunt18> decisions decisions ;)
[19:25] <SchrodingersScat> free as in freedom, not as in money
[19:25] <ubunt18> SchrodingersScat: thats assumed, those involed do so WILLINGLY, so your point is taken but I dont agree ;)
[19:25] <ksft> why is it ccalled "Free software", then?
[19:26] <ksft> free*
[19:26] <OerHeks> ubunt18, witholut proper logs like var/log/dmesg and Auth and xauthority, what do you expect of this channe;?
[19:26] <ksft> the software isn't what's free
[19:26] <ksft> the people are
[19:26] <ubunt18> teh software is also free
[19:26] <ubunt18> you're wrong
[19:26] <ksft> it doesn't cost money, but the people are the ones with freedom
[19:26] <OerHeks> ubuntu18 you are just useless ranting
[19:26] <ubunt18> OerHeks: excuse me ?
[19:26] <maia> OI!!!
[19:27] <maia> ALGUEM DO BRASIL?
[19:27] <ubunt18> well thats nice, if I 'speak my mind' its ranting ?
[19:27] <ubunt18> gee thx :)
[19:27] <SchrodingersScat> if it's not ubuntu support
[19:27] <Pici> !offtopic
[19:27] <ubunt18> OerHeks: what did I say, that seemed like 'ranting' to you ?
[19:28] <OerHeks> ubuntulog, you don't want to provide info to work to a solution, fine, but don't blame ubuntu then.
[19:28] <ubunt18> ubunulog ?
[19:29] <Obadiah1> why do i have to go through the long tedious process of register my nick
[19:29] <Obadiah1> ???
[19:29] <ubunt18> OerHeks: what would providing logs prove ? its not just me having this problem someone else on this forum is too, plus the URL ioria gave me proves someone else has,,its not just me right ?
[19:29] <Pici> Obadiah1: 1) its not long or tedious, 2) dumb people spam us.
[19:29] <Obadiah1> ic
[19:29] <ubunt18> OerHeks: IF I thought there was a 'reason' it does this on a OLD install thats one thing, but a brand new install,isn't that kinda nuts ? ;)
[19:31] <ubunt18> Obadiah1: security
[19:31] <OerHeks> ubunt18, yes, that is why info is needed, i cannot give away a rondom solution like append systemd.unit=multi-user.target to the kernel line in grub/run once
[19:32] <Obadiah1> ;)
[19:32] <OerHeks> journalctl -b -1 provides info from the previous boot
[19:33] <dreadkopp> guys? anyone can help me? or can tell me what to do the use a bootloader which will boot both UEFI and legacy systems?
[19:33] <ubunt18> OerHeks: you misunderstood, I might be willing to , if it was a OLD install, this is new, i'm new sure I can be bothered
[19:33] <ubunt18> OerHeks: and thats not a rant, btw.
[19:34] <ubunt18> its pure frustration , over a brand new install, that should not do this ;)
[19:34] <ubunt18> I'll ask on ubuntu forums and see if I can get more information ,,ty all I guess :)
[19:34] <Rarrikins> ubunt18: I'd recommend checking the drives using a long SMART check. The drive might be failing or something.
[19:35] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: make a bios-boot partition and an efi partition
[19:35] <Pici> 2/5
[19:35] <OerHeks> ubunt18, oke, so you cannot give info, you got me totally off track :-)
[19:36] <ash_workz> hey, sorry, friends took me to lunch; anyway, now I'll post that .desktop file
[19:36] <ash_workz> trism ^
[19:36] <trism> ash_workz: alright
[19:36] <ioria> ash_workz, first of all, it is executable ?
[19:37] <ash_workz> ioria: there's an Exec= line, if that's what you mean
[19:37] <ioria> ash_workz,  no chmod +x  file.desktop ... paste ls -l  file.desktop
[19:37] <ash_workz> I am just noticing though, an inconsistency in the file and what the dash executes
[19:37] <trism> ioria: why would it be executable?
[19:38] <ioria> trism, in unity it has... idr why
[19:38] <ash_workz> so...
[19:38] <trism> ioria: ls -l /usr/share/applications/
[19:38] <ash_workz> let me give the run down
[19:38] <ash_workz> I didn't know what to do to resolve an icon in the dash that pointed to the wrong version of a program
[19:39] <ioria> trism, not in there... on the desktop
[19:39] <ash_workz> so I went with the suggestion of using "main menu" (alacarte) which worked
[19:39] <ioria> ash_workz,  where is you . desktop ?
[19:39] <dreadkopp> EriC^^: i guess i need to grub install twice somehow then?
[19:39] <ash_workz> it actually presents you with fields similar to the lines in .desktop files
[19:40] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: yeah, install both the grub-pc and grub-efi packages
[19:40] <ash_workz> so I changed it using that and then all the icons broke, but at least they pointed to the right place
[19:40] <ash_workz> opening up this .desktop file shows the old path
[19:40] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: install grub-pc so it writes grub to the bios-boot partition, then it won't matter anymore i think, and install grub-efi
[19:40] <dreadkopp> EriC^^: thanks! then just install ubuntu to the stick, add packages i need and set it ro , righty?
[19:40] <ash_workz> which indicates to me that that file is not being used... at all
[19:41] <ash_workz> that there is something else responsible for both the icon and the executable
[19:41] <ash_workz> I think I'll grep for the new path maybe
[19:41] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: not sure about the ro part..
[19:41] <ioria> ash_workz, usually i just add a .desktop ( with +x) in ~/.local/share/applications  ...
[19:41] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: i think so!
[19:42] <ash_workz> hmm... there isn't any file in the /usr/share/applications directory that has the new path as an Exec= line
[19:42] <ash_workz> so how can this broken icon link to the correct file?
[19:42] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: never tried to actually run ubuntu as ro, so no idea
[19:43] <ash_workz> trism: any ideas?
[19:43] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: are you talking about a grub parameter? how do you plan to achieve that?
[19:43] <ash_workz> should I `sudo apt-get remove alacarte` ?
[19:43]  * EriC^^ curious
[19:43] <trism> ash_workz: that shouldn't change anything
[19:43] <dreadkopp> EriC^^: thanks a lot.. will give it a go in the next hours :) thought about fstab
[19:43] <ash_workz> trism: well, there's something clearly amiss here
[19:44] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: aha
[19:44] <EriC^^> dreadkopp: ok, no problem :)
[19:44] <trism> ash_workz: do you maybe have multiple .desktops with the same Exec in ~/.local/share/applications/ ?
[19:45] <ioria> ash_workz, if all the whole .deesktop is correct try to append %u   to the  Exec line
[19:45] <ash_workz> trism: `grep -rns 'PhpStorm-162.1121.38'` (which is a component to the correct path) only has one result; the current icon path
[19:45] <trism> ash_workz: an old thing with alacarte that often messed things up is it would add multiple Icon= (and maybe even Exec=) lines instead of replacing them, so it may still help to look at the actual file
[19:45] <ash_workz> trism: I am looking at the actual file
[19:45] <ash_workz> trism: I'm just saying, I initially set it with alacarte
[19:46] <ash_workz> trism: Idk... maybe it's not working as I expect
[19:46] <namni> Does someone maybe using encrypted multiboot? I had a distro on an encrypted partition with separate boot. I backed up the boot partition, installed Ubuntu on an encrypted partition, also with separate boot, so the earlier boot got overwritten. It worked fine, but I used the backup to get the earlier boot partition back.
[19:46] <ash_workz> this is what I'll do and come back... (1) set the icon file to use the same parent as the current Exec line; log out and in, see if that changed the target of the dash icon
[19:47] <namni> Now what should I do in order to be able to boot into Ubuntu as well?
[19:48] <dreadkopp> EriC^^: well what i am trying to do is a live linux environment which automatically connects to my vpn so i can access it. Used to rescue harddrives and reinstalling the OS (window... duh) via mounting the internal harddrive in a vm and install it there
[19:49] <dreadkopp> EriC^^: all i really need is the original ubuntu liveSystem + virtualbox + vpn clientside setup + a few rescuetools but i really don't know how to integrate that into the original image :/
[19:53] <EriC^^> !persistence | dreadkopp
[19:53] <alkisg> dreadkopp: why does it need to be a live usb stick, instead of a regular installation in a usb stick?
[19:53] <EriC^^> maybe check that out ^
[19:54] <dreadkopp> ubottu: thanks for the link, will check it. alkisg: problem i was thinking about was that with 'normal' install to USB i would have either legacy OR UEFI support...
[19:55] <alkisg> dreadkopp: no, you can have both
[19:56] <dreadkopp> ubottu: damn it.. say thanks to EriC^^ to me then :P
[19:56] <ash_workz> trism: nope, so even when I put the path in as `Exec="/opt/PhpStorm-143.382.38/bin/phpstorm.sh" %f` (old PhpStorm version) it points to the correct version
[19:56] <peglegg> I'm having some trouble changing the listening port for ssh on a new install - full disclosure I'm on Mint 17.2, but no help from that channel.
[19:57] <alkisg> peglegg: port xxx in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[19:57] <ash_workz> trism: could alacarte have done some magic to functionally turn that into a link to the new file somehow?
[19:57] <peglegg> I changed the config from port 22 to 13 following a guide. restarted the service, and couldn't connect via 13, but still coudl on 22
[19:57] <peglegg> opened sshd_config and the new port was saved and still there
[19:57] <trism> ash_workz: well alacarte should only really write the static file
[19:58] <alkisg> peglegg: what's the output of this? grep -i port /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[19:58] <trism> ash_workz: so it would seem you have another .desktop file somewhere overriding this one
[19:58] <peglegg>  What ports, IPs and protocols we listen for
[19:58] <peglegg> Port 13
[19:58] <peglegg> first line is commented out
[19:58] <ash_workz> trism: I'll see what the path says in main menu
[19:58] <peglegg> just missed it on the capture
[19:58] <peglegg> USB3 /etc/ssh $ nc -v -z <IP_ADDRESS> 22
[19:58] <peglegg> Connection to <IP_ADDRESS> 22 port [tcp/ssh] succeeded!
[19:59] <peglegg> SB3 /etc/ssh $ nc -v -z <IP_ADDRESS> 13
[19:59] <peglegg> nc: connect to <IP_ADDRESS> port 13 (tcp) failed: Connection refused
[19:59] <ash_workz> trism: yeah, alacarte still says `Command: "/opt/PhpStorm-162.1121.38/bin/phpstorm.sh"` (new version)
[19:59] <alkisg> peglegg:  sudo netstat -nap|grep :13, or sudo netstat -nap|grep ssh
[20:00] <alkisg> peglegg: and, sudo service ssh restart, and then tail /var/log/syslog for errors
[20:01] <ash_workz> trism: now that I've changed jetbrains-phpstorm.desktop to only use `/opt/PhpStorm-143.382.38/bin/phpstorm.sh` (old version) a recursive grep turns up NO instances of the new version path
[20:01] <ash_workz> trism: I really don't get what's going on here
[20:01] <trism> ash_workz: I'm not really sure either
[20:02] <ash_workz> ~.~
[20:02] <trism> ash_workz: there's not another .desktop file in /usr/local/share/applications or anything is there?
[20:02] <peglegg> your restart syntax corrected the issue
[20:02] <ash_workz> trism: I'll try maybe grepping the parent
[20:03] <peglegg> the guide I was learning from used sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[20:03] <ash_workz> might take awhile
[20:03] <peglegg> instead of sudo service ssh restart
[20:03] <OerHeks> try sshd
[20:03] <peglegg> thank you for the fast assistance
[20:03] <trism> ash_workz: well /usr/local/share/applications may not even exist so it might be a quick check
[20:04] <alkisg> peglegg: yeah that old syntax wasn't correct for new ubuntu versions
[20:04] <alkisg> You're welcome
[20:04] <ash_workz> trism: oh... I didn't notice the *local* part of your path... I've been checking /usr/share/applications
[20:04] <ash_workz> trism: it would seem that path does not exist
[20:05] <sebaguro> Hi, can someone please explain how I can obtain: The required dependency 'apt (>= 1.0.1ubuntu2.13)' is not installed.
[20:05] <ash_workz> and grep doesn't turn up anything either
[20:05] <trism> ash_workz: just trying to think of other places it might be, if you search for say, phpstorm in the dash do you get multiple entries?
[20:06] <sebaguro> Hi, can someone please help me?
[20:06] <alkisg> !ask
[20:07] <alkisg> sebaguro: ^
[20:07] <ash_workz> trism: no; I only ever had one; and alacarte helped me change the destination
[20:07] <alkisg> sebaguro, sorry I didn't see your question above
[20:07] <alkisg> sebaguro: you probably have broken sources.list
[20:08] <sebaguro> OK, sorry, thanks
[20:08] <trism> ash_workz: can you pastebin the file? if there aren't multiple entries then I guess it has to be something wrong with that one, I can't really think of anything else
[20:08] <alkisg> sebaguro: write the whole line that you're trying to execute and the whole output and put those to pastebin
[20:08] <sebaguro> I got a window appear offering to upgrade ubuntu to version 16.04
[20:08] <alkisg> Which Ubuntu version do you have now?
[20:09] <ash_workz> trism: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/de9593975d45b1e09cc437d194da4aa9
[20:09] <sebaguro> but as soon as I try i get a window appear with title "the required depends in not installed"
[20:09] <sebaguro> The required dependency 'apt (>= 1.0.1ubuntu2.13)' is not installed.
[20:09] <trism> ash_workz: what is the full path of the jetbrains-phpstorm.desktop because alacarte would be editing a file in ~/.local/share/applications/
[20:10] <ash_workz> trism: oh?
[20:10] <trism> ash_workz: it usually creates ones with random names too
[20:10] <dreadkopp> another question: virtualbox will run on even on a old crappy celeron without any virtualization option, however only for x86 host and crappy performance, righty?
[20:10] <ash_workz> trism: the full path is /usr/share/applications/jetbrains-phpstorm.desktop
[20:10] <trism> ash_workz: yeah if alacarte edits that it will save something in ~/.local/share/applications/
[20:11] <trism> ash_workz: so you might want to look there instead
[20:11] <alkisg> sebaguro: which ubuntu version do you have now?
[20:11]  * ash_workz looking
[20:11] <MonkeyDust> dreadkopp  true, you need x-vti or something to run 64bit, i have that issue too
[20:12] <ash_workz> trism: yeah, that didn't have the appropriate extension on the Icon= line
[20:12] <ash_workz> brb

[20:13] <damolima> smbclient works, but nautilus doesn't show any devices in "Windows networks". How can I fix this?
[20:13] <dreadkopp> MonkeyDust: good to know. sufficient enough for my usecase :) thinking about qemu however, easier to set up the whole 'mounting complete harddrive for the vm' stuff. virtualisation-wise the same thing i guess?
[20:13] <alkisg> sebaguro: What's the output of this? grep VERSION= /etc/os-release
[20:14] <MonkeyDust> sebaguro  and the output of    cat /etc/issue
[20:14] <ash_workz> trism: that worked perfectly
[20:14] <trism> ash_workz: excellent
[20:14] <ash_workz> trism: what should I do with the one in /usr/share/applications ?
[20:14] <dreadkopp> ubuntu comes with kvm support by default, righty?
[20:14] <jorrit> OpenVLC flickers like there is no tomorrow after "up"grade to Ubuntu 16.04.1 from 14.04. I use a nVidia GT 640 GPU Can I fix this somehow?
[20:15] <ash_workz> trism: just leave it?
[20:15] <trism> ash_workz: just leave it there it doesn't hurt anything, stuff in ~/.local/share/applications can overriding /usr/share/applications/
[20:15] <MonkeyDust> dreadkopp  your hardware must be kvm capable
[20:15] <ash_workz> trism: thanks for your help
[20:15] <sebaguro> alkisg: grep VERSION= /etc/os-release
[20:15] <trism> ash_workz: np
[20:15] <sebaguro> alkisg: sorry i meant

[20:17] <G4b1t_> alkisg: isn't it better to sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade and then sudo apt dist-upgrade ?
[20:18] <jon5000> hello - ubuntu 16.04 question.  I have it installed on my lenovo yoga 13.  For some reason there is some sort of keyboard shortcut where, when i press ctrl-right or left, sometimes, and I don't know when, and only when doing that repeatedly, , it closes the current window.  This happens alot when I am editing an email, and it is really annoying.  I can't seem to find shortcuts to remove this one.
[20:18] <keini> i have some problem with my computer!
[20:18] <alkisg> G4b1t_: ...only if he has space issues and runs an apt-get clean inbetween... otherwise I don't see any reason to do that
[20:18] <dreadkopp> keini: did you try turning it off and on again?
[20:18] <nthrow> have you tried fire yet keini?
[20:18] <rajivmars> i am using ubuntu 16.04. sound is not coming in headphones. anybody please solve this?
[20:19] <ash_workz> nthrow: don't forget lighter fluid

[20:19] <G4b1t_> alkisg, ok thanks. I didn't know that dist-upgrade would work out-of-the-box if the system wasn't fully updated.
[20:20] <keini> the bios password probleme!
[20:20] <colints> Question regarding ubuntu 16.04 on my old laptop.  The cpu doesn't support AES-NI, yet i dont feel comfortable taking it on the go without at least home dir encryptfs.  Will i see noticeable adverse performance with encrypted home?
[20:20] <ash_workz> nthrow: still sounding like fire is the best solution
[20:20] <alkisg> G4b1t_: dist-upgrade includes the plain update
[20:21] <colints> its runnign a decent Core 2 Duo T9300
[20:21] <keini> i can't remove it
[20:21] <dreadkopp> keini: not ubuntu related... try cmos reset
[20:21] <G4b1t_> alkisg, cool. Well, as long as I brick I learn xD. Thanks again for the clarification.

[20:22] <rehat>  Not sure if this is a python question or just a linux one but I am reading this DigitalOcean tutorial and I am lost as to how this upstart script triggers a virtualenv activate http://pastebin.com/1M26xAx6  is the flask app running in a virtualenv from line 10?
[20:23] <colints> is an encrypted home generally safe enough to keep a would-be-thief from accessing my home data?
[20:24] <tgm4883> colints: generally yes, but it wouldn't help against a patient, targeted attack
[20:24] <colints> tgm4883, Ok! thanks!
[20:25] <keini> i can't enter in bios
[20:25] <tgm4883> colints: yep, I generally recommend encrypted home directories unless you can demonstrate a need for FDE
[20:26] <dreadkopp> keini: cmos reset +you're better of at #hardware sice this isnt a ubuntu issue
[20:26] <sebaguro> alkisg: I got the following Warnings on the apt-get dist-upgrade

[20:27] <Rebelnet> Anyone would recommend an ubuntu ready laptop?
[20:27] <keini> ok
[20:27] <keini> tanks
[20:27] <colints> tgm4883, yeah i really dont think i need FDE.  Mostly don't want a thief to have access to emails and family photos, etc.
[20:27] <alkisg> sebaguro: you probably have a ppa in your sources.list.d
[20:28] <tgm4883> Rebelnet: system76 offers laptops with ubuntu preinstalled. Dell also offers a few laptops like that
[20:28] <alkisg> sebaguro: try disabling all your unofficial sources
[20:28] <colints> tgm4883, errr... wont my swap still be visable?
[20:28] <tgm4883> colints: yes
[20:28] <Rarrikins> Rebelnet: The Dell laptops are called Developer Edition
[20:28] <Rebelnet> i have see those
[20:28] <Rebelnet> seen
[20:28] <sebaguro> alkisg: i meant at the beggining but it seems to be continuuing OK
[20:28] <tgm4883> colints: you could encrypt your SWAP or forgo swap
[20:29] <colints> tgm4883, is there an option to encrypt my swap?
[20:29] <colints> only 3GB of ram
[20:29] <keini> how can i  install  kali linux
[20:29] <colints> tad cutting it close imo
[20:29] <Gio_DE> I'm experiencing an issue with uploading through SFTP in a chrooted environment. I am pretty certain that permissions are correct, but I am getting a permission denied error when trying to upload something to the allowed directory. More weird, this was working until my server rebooted. Could anyone help me out?
[20:29] <sebaguro> alkisg: should i abort?
[20:30] <alkisg> sebaguro: yes, then remove your unoffical sources, then try again
[20:30] <jorrit> VLC flickers a lot after the upgrade to 16.04.01 from 14.04 (using nVidia GPU)
[20:30] <tgm4883> colints: hmm, http://askubuntu.com/questions/463661/encrypted-swap-partition-for-14-04  although I'm not sure how beneficial that would be without FDE
[20:30] <Rebelnet> i'm thinking of getting the 1049 dollars or 1449 dollars model of the Developer Edition
[20:31] <dreadkopp> jorrit: using nvidia drivers or nuveau?
[20:31] <Rebelnet> but i'm not sure which one
[20:31] <Gio_DE> I can provide screenshots of my directory structure and permissions should someone be able to help.
[20:31] <colints> i guess ill just wipe the swap and get rid of it...
[20:31] <jorrit> dreadkopp, nVidia drivers, since I'm a gamer
[20:31] <blackflow> Gio_DE: chrooted SFTP, home dir is owned by root, you can't upload anything in the docroot
[20:31] <jorrit> I had a terrible experience using Nouveau and I tend to avoid it after that.
[20:32] <Gio_DE> I'm aware of that. I have directories created inside the chrooted directory that are owned by the appropriate users for those sub directories.
[20:32] <colints> tgm4883, thanks for the help!
[20:32] <dreadkopp> hmm... tried a differnet player and checked if same behavior occurs? @jorrit
[20:33] <Gio_DE> The upload error is occurring inside these sub directories. I am using CyberDuck client to attempt the upload. I've also tried psftp CLI.
[20:33] <Gio_DE> And i get a permission denied error when trying to upload
[20:33] <Gio_DE> It seems permission/owner related, i just don't know why, as they seem correct.
[20:33] <blackflow> Gio_DE: that's SSH FTP, right?
[20:33] <Gio_DE> Correct.
[20:34] <jorrit> dreadkopp, I really love VLC because it supports so many formats and has a decent interface, unlike SMPlayer and don't even get me started on Totem...
[20:34] <jorrit> I'll try though
[20:34] <ase_> does anyone know how to get an amd driver working on ubuntu
[20:34] <Rarrikins> jorrit: VLC has, in Tools menu, Preferences, Video, some settings you can try.
[20:34] <blackflow> Gio_DE: and the directories are writable? u(g)+w ?
[20:35] <tgm4883> ase_: which ubuntu and which driver
[20:35] <dreadkopp> jorrit: sure, i love vlc as well.. just to see if this is vlc error or driver problem :)
[20:35] <ase_> ubuntu 16.04 and r5 m350
[20:35] <tgm4883> ase_: for AMD, should be loading the correct driver by default
[20:35] <sebaguro> alkisg: what is best way to remove unofficial sources?
[20:36] <ase_> it's showing th integrated intel one
[20:36] <ase_> not the amd one
[20:36] <alkisg> sebaguro: run software-properties-gtk and do it from the gui
[20:36] <jorrit> Rarrikins, I've already tested all the recommended options. like enabling de-interlacing (yadif) and switching to software rendering. If I choose software, the playback slows down to a crawl. I had no problems running VLC on 14.04 on the exact same machine.
[20:36] <sebaguro> alkisg: thanks
[20:36] <tgm4883> ase_: laptop with hybrid graphics?
[20:36] <ase_> i have an amd driver and an intel one
[20:37] <Gio_DE> blackflow: that's correct. The permission on the root-owned chrooted directory is currently 755. The permissions of the sub-directories are 700.
[20:37] <ase_> but the amd one is not showing
[20:37] <Gio_DE> Each of the sub directories has a specified user for it, and chown is set up properly
[20:38] <ase_> R5 M330 tgm4883
[20:38] <jorrit> dreadkopp, SMPlayer runs smoothly, so it must be a VLC-specific option. the UI of SMPlayer looks like it escaped from Jurassic Park 1 though.
[20:39] <blackflow> Gio_DE: if the dirs are owned by the user, then the only thing possible is a broken apparmor or selinux policy. otherwise what you're saying is impossible.
[20:39] <Gio_DE> Omfg, i bet it's selinux.
[20:39] <Gio_DE> Hang on.
[20:39] <blackflow> Gio_DE: if it were FTPS (FTP over SSL), then it's possible there are different user mappings involved, but with SSH, no.
[20:40] <alkisg> blackflow: note that the users do not exist at all in the chroot /etc/passwd... but I don't know enough about how sshd handles this, to propose a solution...
[20:40] <dreadkopp> jorrit: hmm... havent used vlc with linux for a while since i run linux only without X anymore.... there might be some hardware-rendering option though.. try tunring it of... unless you watch some fancy 4k porn there shouldnt be a problem :)
[20:40] <Gio_DE> Im pretty sure blackflow just nailed it for me with SELINUX
[20:40] <Gio_DE> Am checking now
[20:40] <blackflow> alkisg: yes but ssh wouldn't allow sshing into other user's home dir
[20:41] <dreadkopp> might be some problem with vlc an some nvidia drivers (should be fixed then)
[20:41] <jorrit> dreadkopp, don't worry, I'm not using 4k-monitors and I'm not watching natural behaviour tutorials ;-)
[20:41] <Gio_DE> Yep
[20:41] <Gio_DE> blackflow: thank you so much
[20:41] <blackflow> yw
[20:41] <Gio_DE> all fixed.
[20:42] <_l_k_z_m> hey how do I extract files from a .iso image?
[20:42] <dreadkopp> _l_k_z_m: just mount the iso
[20:42] <_l_k_z_m> or how do i mount an iso?
[20:42] <jorrit> _l_k_z_m, you can mount it, and copy the files like you would from a directory
[20:43] <tgm4883> _l_k_z_m: from nautilus, you right click and open with archive mounter
[20:43] <dreadkopp> _l_k_z_m: http://bfy.tw/7L3e
[20:43] <_l_k_z_m> tgm4883, that doesn't work...
[20:44] <tgm4883> dreadkopp: not helpful
[20:44] <tgm4883> _l_k_z_m: "that doesn't work" doesn't really give us anything to go on. Why doesn't it work? Does it throw an error?
[20:44] <_l_k_z_m> doesn't throw an error doesn't even open
[20:44] <_l_k_z_m> is there a command line archive mounter?
[20:44] <Rarrikins> _l_k_z_m: sudo mkdir /media/zomg; sudo mount -o loop theisofile.iso /medio/zomg
[20:44] <_l_k_z_m> i'm working in awesome
[20:45] <Rarrikins> _l_k_z_m: Sorry, that last medio should be media
[20:45] <jorrit> _l_k_z_m, sure you can mount the iso as a loop device using iso9660 as format
[20:46] <_l_k_z_m> what's the format
[20:47] <_l_k_z_m> that doesn't even work
[20:47] <_l_k_z_m> alright nvm I'll figure out
[20:48] <alkisg> _l_k_z_m: maybe your .iso is broken? What's the output of: file /path/to/your.iso
[20:48] <raspy> can a logical volume be created with 1 stripe?
[20:49] <_l_k_z_m> alkisg poweriso direct-access-archive
[20:49] <raspy> i tried to create a logical volume with 1 stripe and 8k stripe size but it states that i cannot use a stripe size with a single stripe
[20:49] <_l_k_z_m> anyone just have a copy of game physics?
[20:49] <_l_k_z_m> email me the pdf lol
[20:50] <alkisg> _l_k_z_m: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-do-i-open-daa-direct-access-archive-files-under-linux-or-unix-oses/
[20:50] <_l_k_z_m> alkisg, alright thanks
[20:51] <Bomber4chats2> I got myself black screened on boot
[20:51] <Bomber4chats2> It may have to do with xrandr
[20:52] <Bomber4chats2> I can't reach terminal 1
[20:52] <alkisg> Bomber4chats2: xrandr doesn't run at boot, what do you mean?
[20:53] <Bomber4chats2> alkisg  Well, I was working with a script that would change my screens resolution on the fly. Actually, the problem  started after I restarted....and I probably installed a few updates from apt...
[20:53] <Bomber4chats2> (before restarting)
[20:54] <alkisg> Bomber4chats2: do you have automatic user logins enabled?
[20:54] <yao_> всем привет
[20:54] <Bomber4chats2> No
[20:54] <EriC^^> !ru | yao_
[20:54] <alkisg> Bomber4chats2: then your scripts probably won't run because the user has not logged in yet, and it was an issue with your apt updates... what happens if you select the recovery mode from grub?
[20:55] <Bomber4chats2> It is able to access Linux. The system reports that I'm in fail mode.
[20:55] <w0jrl> Bomber4chats2: xrandr should automatically disable itself when you restart.
[20:55] <Bomber4chats2> (800x640)
[20:57] <alkisg> Bomber4chats2: what kind of changes did you do? apt keeps a history at /var/log/apt/
[20:57] <Bomber4chats2> Ok
[20:57] <Bomber4chats2> Btw, I'm able to enter the main image if I set nomodeset
[20:58] <Bomber4chats2> (buy again, it reverts to fail mode)
[20:58] <alkisg> Bomber4chats2: which graphics card, which driver, and are you using a custom xorg.conf?
[20:58] <Bomber4chats2> Nvidia
[20:58] <Bomber4chats2> I tried to install 367, but my system insists that I'm running 361
[20:59] <alkisg> Bomber4chats2: then try booting with nomodeset, remove the driver, and then reinstall it
[21:00] <Bomber4chats2> Ok...
[21:00] <alkisg> You're using the GUI for that, right?
[21:00] <alkisg> I.e. the "additional drivers" tab...
[21:01] <Bomber4chats2> So log/apt is mentioning that I've upgraded the following libs
[21:02] <Bomber4chats2> Poppler-utils, openssl, vino, libssl,
[21:03] <Bomber4chats2> that was before the black screen problem. I will now revert to the proprietary drivers, see if it helps.
[21:03] <curlyears> heigh hough
[21:04] <curlyears> query:  how can I isolate this problem to determine if it isan Ubuntu problem or a Firefox issue? (to follow)
[21:05] <w0jrl> Hi curlyears. What issue are you having?
[21:08] <raspy> hi can anyone see this?
[21:09] <tgm4883> !test | raspy
[21:09] <raspy> thx
[21:09] <Bomber4chats2> alkisg reinstalled, trying to boot
[21:09] <curlyears> occasionally, after several hours of intense use, Firefox will lock up.  If I happen not to  be  typing when it happens, I can see it happening.  First, whatever I am doing ceases to respond, then the entire screen dims to about 1/2 intwensity, and even if I go up and click on (x) to kill the proggy, it sits for a while (sometimes a second or two,
[21:09] <curlyears> sometimes a minute or more) and then pops up a complaint about a "stalled" script, and asks if it should continue to run the script or perform a 'forced quit."  WHen I choose 'forced fit,'  sometimes, it kills the program.  Other times it goes back into catatonia, and I have to go through the process several times to get out of the program *of cour
[21:09] <curlyears> se, I can "kill" the process if I switch to a term screen.  Whassup?
[21:10] <Bomber4chats2> alkisg, nope, it's locked in a black screen.
[21:10] <Bomber4chats2> But I got more info this time.
[21:10] <Bomber4chats2> Log started recording stuff
[21:10] <alkisg> Bomber4chats2: is it still reporting the wrong version? did you see any error messages while reinstalling?
[21:10] <Bomber4chats2> SCAN_REQ_UMAC timeout
[21:11] <Bomber4chats2> That and soft lockups
[21:16] <elricsfate> Hello all
[21:16] <Bomber4chats2> There was an error about prescript failing
[21:16] <elricsfate> I have a really annoying issue with my trackpad that doesn't occur in Windows.
[21:17] <Bomber4chats2> But otherwise, it went through the installation process without any other problems
[21:17] <elricsfate> If I try and click while moving (I.E One finger on the pad, one finger at the bottom left to click) then the cursor jumps across the screen
[21:18] <elricsfate> This is absolutely maddening and makes it almost impossible to use the trackpad. Can anyone heklp?
[21:20] <Ahmadzai> hello
[21:21] <w0jrl> Hi Ahmadzai
[21:21] <alkisg> (12:16:44 πμ) Bomber4chats2: There was an error about prescript failing ==> what error? put it to pastebin
[21:21] <elricsfate> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/365943
[21:21] <elricsfate> This appears to be the bug I'm experiencing
[21:21] <nopea> I know how to check the amount of Entropy with cat proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail - I am getting low numbers and slow SSL handshaking.  I am using urandom in my conf. so my question is how can I check if openssl has enough entropy?
[21:22] <elricsfate> One of the last comments mentions trackpads that have a dual sensing/clicking area and my trackpad fits into that category
[21:22] <elricsfate> Is there a working fix to mitigate this?
[21:23] <Bomber4chats2> The distribution-provided pre-install script failed!  Essentially I have an entire trackpad area with no visibally seperate button but there is actually a "button" that exists on each side underneath the trackpad
[21:24] <elricsfate> If I try to click that button down it instead sense my finger in that area.
[21:24] <elricsfate> Not actually sure how to fix the issue though?
[21:26] <OerHeks> is there any other bug/report known for your machine?
[21:27] <OerHeks> unity tweak tool can set some mouse tweaks, but not that area
[21:30] <Bomber4chats2> Is it an issue if my xorg.conf file has an extension with a datetime?
[21:30] <Bomber4chats2> Am I supposed to have a clean xorg.conf on my system?
[21:30] <FrostByt3> mornin'
[21:32] <w0jrl> Good afternoon FrostByt3
[21:33] <MonkeyDust> good evening
[21:33] <MonkeyDust> (11.30 pm)
[21:33] <genii> Bomber4chats2: No xorg.conf is supposed to exist at all, unless you created one yourself, which it will use if it does happen to exist
[21:33] <Bomber4chats2> So if I delete it it will revert?
[21:33] <Bomber4chats2> Reset*
[21:33] <lordcirth> Doesn't the nvidia driver make a xorg.conf?
[21:33] <genii> !xorgconf
[21:34] <lordcirth> I guess not anymore?
[21:34] <Bomber4chats2> It seems Nvidia uses xorg
[21:34] <bumblefuzz> what's the best partition table and format for immediate compatibility between mac, windows, and ubuntu?
[21:34] <Bomber4chats2> Xserver *
[21:34] <bumblefuzz> ...for a USB drive
[21:34] <bumblefuzz> I just want a drive that will work on all 3 with no quirks
[21:35] <lordcirth> bumblefuzz, msdos table, vfat
[21:35] <lordcirth> bumblefuzz, note that FAT32 is limited to 32GB partition and 4GB files
[21:35] <bumblefuzz> and what would I use for larger drives?
[21:36] <bumblefuzz> also, I don't even see vfat in gparted
[21:36] <w0jrl> bumblefuzz: I would use xfat.
[21:37] <w0jrl> The reason is because it supports drives of 1 TB or more.
[21:38] <FrostByt3> xfat.
[21:39] <FrostByt3> these pingouts tho
[21:39] <w0jrl> Mac can read NTFS, but cannot write to it without third-party software.
[21:39] <FrostByt3> really no reason to self write on mac. tbh..
[21:40] <LordLaravel> does ubuntu have support for RedSeaFS? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TempleOS it's from this OS
[21:40] <FrostByt3> also don't just use gparted for the gui, setup partitions, through cmd.  not that hard...
[21:40] <FrostByt3> what is temple based on again?
[21:41] <LordLaravel> HolyC
[21:41] <bumblefuzz> should I use fdisk instead?
[21:41] <LordLaravel> parted can work too
[21:42] <FrostByt3> i don't see why rsfs shouldn't work.  open source, just install some dependencies if needed ig...
[21:42] <LordLaravel> lol it'snot that easy
[21:43] <FrostByt3> eh the compiling shouldn't be that bad..
[21:43] <LordLaravel> templeos has its own compilier
[21:43] <LordLaravel> for specially HolyC
[21:43] <LordLaravel> he made it all himself, everything
[21:43] <FrostByt3> rsfs is cpp
[21:43] <Bomber4chats2> I'm pretty sure my problem has to do with one of the latest libs I've apt-get updated
[21:43] <LordLaravel> compiler, bootloader,
[21:43] <LordLaravel> it's HolyC
[21:43] <LordLaravel> all of TempleOS is HolyC
[21:43] <LordLaravel> it's a mix of C and some C++ stuff
[21:43] <LordLaravel> he also wrote HolyC from scratch
[21:44] <NomadJim> I'm trying to get ffmpeg to run on aws lambda, but it says it's missing a library, is there a way to embed more libraries into ffmpeg? I noticed a guy on github had an ffmpeg that was 30MB and min is only 18MB - ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libXv.so.1
[21:44] <LordLaravel> it mightbe another package you have to install NomadJim
[21:45] <LordLaravel> some codecs are third party or something and have special licences and od not come default with ubuntu install
[21:45] <LordLaravel> so you have to agree to terms and then install them
[21:45] <LordLaravel> looks like you are trying for Xvid
[21:45] <FrostByt3> i don't see why you couldn't just compile it from G++ :/
[21:45] <LordLaravel> i've tried FrostByt3, speak with the guy who wrote it lol, if you said what you just said he will blast you
[21:45] <NomadJim> would the size of ffmpeg increase the more codecs I had installed?
[21:45] <NomadJim> I'm trying to run ffmpeg -i input.mp4 output.mpeg
[21:46] <k1l_> LordLaravel: i cant find anything to that FS. its neither in the kernel not any real open source one, right?
[21:46] <LordLaravel> and call you a nigger
[21:46] <LordLaravel> it's open source lol
[21:46] <LordLaravel> you can get it from http://templeos.org/
[21:46] <FrostByt3> there is a open version on github?
[21:46] <LordLaravel> it runs in virtualbox
[21:46] <LordLaravel> no he has an ISO, the OS compiles itself in under one seconds when it boots
[21:46] <LordLaravel> the entire os
[21:47] <k1l_> LordLaravel: no. we focus on ubuntu support in here. you asked about the filesystem.
[21:47] <k1l_> LordLaravel: you sound more like you were advertising that OS which is offtopic in here
[21:47] <LordLaravel> Fair enough k1l_
[21:48] <LordLaravel> NomadJim, probably not. the size of ffmpeg would be the same
[21:48] <LordLaravel> the codecs are probably in another folder
[21:48] <LordLaravel> are you talking about folder size ?
[21:48] <LordLaravel> different versions and builds too can make different sized executables
[21:49] <LordLaravel> NomadJim, if I googles your error and find a solution I will be extremely upset
[21:49] <NomadJim> I'm trying all of them
[21:50] <NomadJim> The thing that might account for the size difference is buliding ffmpeg with ./configure --enable-static --disable-shared
[21:50] <NomadJim> From https://forums.aws.amazon.com/message.jspa?messageID=583910
[21:50] <LordLaravel> ok so it's not solely related to ffmpeg, it's a shared library, so external top ffmpeg and can be used by many applications other then ffmpeg if they wanted to
[21:50] <LordLaravel> yes NomadJim could be it
[21:50] <FrostByt3> anoyone else here experment with deep learning?\
[21:50] <k1l_> NomadJim: what ubuntu is it exactly?
[21:51] <k1l_> !ot | FrostByt3
[21:51] <YankDownUnder> !ubuntu
[21:51] <NomadJim> k1l_:  I'm running on ubuntu, I don't know what the AWS box is
[21:51] <NomadJim> 14.04 LTS
[21:52] <k1l_> NomadJim: well, if that error is on that aws box, its quite important to know what OS that is at all
[21:53] <NomadJim> "AMI ID – ami-f0091d91 in the US West (Oregon) region." so I'm guessing a custom amazon linux distro
[21:53] <NomadJim> http://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/current-supported-versions.html
[21:54] <k1l_> NomadJim: because i dont think that is an ubuntu issue at all. so i suppose you need to ask the amazon guys
[21:55] <bumblefuzz> ok, I tried msdos and F32 and I can't get my mac to work with ubuntu on recognizing this usb drive... any ideas?
[21:56] <YankDownUnder> bumblefuzz: iMac, miniMac, MBP? What ya got?
[21:56] <bumblefuzz> YankDownUnder: MBP
[21:56] <bumblefuzz> ...and to be clear, I'm talking about 2 machines
[21:57] <NomadJim> k1l_:  looks like it's an issue of just building ffmpeg correctly on my local system
[21:57] <YankDownUnder> bumblefuzz: Got two links for ya: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro & http://www.techonia.com/5774/ubuntu-16-04-running-macbook-pro
[21:58] <bumblefuzz> I'm not running ubuntu on my MBP
[21:58] <NomadJim> Is there a general linux channel as popular as this one?
[21:58] <bumblefuzz> I'm running OS X and trying to get it and ubuntu on my other machine to recognize the same USB drive
[21:58] <k1l_> NomadJim: ##linux
[21:59] <YankDownUnder> bumblefuzz: Remember to read the bits about UEFI/EFI and the proper creation of an installation USB...hmm...
[21:59] <bumblefuzz> it's not an installation USB
[21:59] <bumblefuzz> it's just a drive for moving files between them
[21:59] <k1l_> bumblefuzz: and what is the issue?
[22:00] <YankDownUnder> bumblefuzz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQIaDO9nR6Y
[22:00] <NomadJim> k1l_:  nice ty
[22:00] <k1l_> bumblefuzz: good old fat32 doesnt work?
[22:00] <YankDownUnder> bumblefuzz: That video is quite all right...might want to watch it...(information is power)
[22:00] <bumblefuzz> I formatted it with that and ubuntu won't let me mount it
[22:01] <k1l_> bumblefuzz: i doubt it. what is the error?
[22:01] <LordLaravel> https://github.com/dreamfast/maxxsuite what you guys think of this? seems interesting, it's ubuntu bash scripts
[22:01] <bumblefuzz> k1l_: umm... it doesn't automount, 'mount' is grayed out in GParted... no idea what to do
[22:02] <k1l_> bumblefuzz: see "dmesg" what the issue is with that usb pendrive after connecting
[22:02] <bumblefuzz> I have no idea
[22:02] <bumblefuzz> can I pastbinit?

[22:05] <net_tec> Hey guys, I have the question about SSDs, actually should i Swp oh a SSD
[22:05] <net_tec> on*
[22:06] <LordLaravel> net_tec, if you don't have the extra ram, then yes maybe. it might degrade the life of it slightly if the swap is used a lot
[22:06] <Bashing-om> net_tec: Depends, how much ram do you have , and how often is swap used ?
[22:07] <bumblefuzz> k1l_: http://termbin.com/sfum
[22:07] <net_tec> i have an DELL XPS 13 with 8 gigs of ram
[22:07] <idoko> just started experiencing a weird behaviour on gnome with ubuntu
[22:07] <k1l_> bumblefuzz: well, it finds sdb1. your desktop should automount
[22:08] <idoko> the title on the panel stays even after i minimized every window
[22:08] <bumblefuzz> k1l_: it always find sdb... it never auto connects
[22:08] <net_tec> i'm hoping that is enough RAM
[22:09] <k1l_> bumblefuzz: what desktop is it? doesnt nautilus show it on the left side?
[22:09] <bumblefuzz> MATE
[22:09] <bumblefuzz> caja
[22:09] <bumblefuzz> sometimes it automounts
[22:09] <bumblefuzz> sometimes it doesn't
[22:09] <bumblefuzz> but never with F32
[22:09] <Bashing-om> net_tec: 'less you are doing some heavy duty number crunching . you will never touch swap  wiht 8 Gigs of ram available .
[22:10] <bumblefuzz> Bashing-om: what about 16GB?
[22:10] <k1l_> hmmm, fat32 is the standard for usb. and on nautilus it does automount. i dont know if mate/caja has issues with gvfs
[22:11] <Bashing-om> bumblefuzz: I run with 4 Gigs ,, and light duty .. I have a very small swap partition, and in normal usage never seen it touched .
[22:13] <net_tec> ok hey thanks Guys XD
[22:15] <LordLaravel> net_tec, 8gb should be enough, i use about 1gb when not doing dev stuff and normal things
[22:15] <LordLaravel> otherwise it's about 3gb becayuse of VMs
[22:15] <LordLaravel> so you could get away with it, i have 12gb on this box and never seen it go over 8gb to be honest
[22:15] <LordLaravel> i didn't bother with a swap
[22:17] <LordLaravel> what programming languages would i need to know to conrtib. to ubuntu dev ?
[22:17] <LordLaravel> i know ym way around TempleOS and learned a lot about OS from it
[22:18] <mcfdez> Hello. I installed Ubuntu 16.04 a new purchased PC (Acer Aspire E5-573G) and I have some troubleshootings. In first case I needed to upgrade my BIOS because I was 1.25 and with this not works, then I upgraded the BIOS and Ubuntu LiveUSB started normally. When I was installing I creating manual partitions (one of 40MB for EFI boot, another of 2GB for swap and the rest for the / system). After installation is finished I restarted the
[22:18] <mcfdez> laptop and I see a message thay says "No bootable device". Any suggestion please?
[22:21] <k1l_> LordLaravel: depends on what exactly you want to contribute. there is python, c, c++,.... that depends on what package you want to work.
[22:22] <k1l_> !contribute | LordLaravel
[22:22] <LordLaravel> k1l_, ok cool - i have a drag and drop web interface that builds server deployments for Ubuntu 16.04, based on Laravel and bash
[22:22] <LordLaravel> it's kind of fun lol

[22:49] <supraleposeur> Hi - I just upgraded my server from 14.04.5 to 16.04.1 and my RAID1 array is now empty. I'm very new at using mdadm and I don't want to destroy my data inadvertently. Is anyone available to help?
[22:51] <YankDownUnder> supraleposeur: #ubuntu-server might be able to assist in a more advanced capacity
[22:51] <supraleposeur> Thanks YankDownUnder - will go try there
[22:58] <sulfasal> ready to upgrade 15.10 -> 16.04. what do I use $sudo apt-get dist-upgrade or $sudo do-release-upgrade ?
[22:58] <acovrig> What command is there that will let me re-map keys, like xev, but I remember there being something else, any ideas what I'm thinking of?
[22:59] <nameless> xmodmap?
[23:00] <k1l_> sulfasal: do-release-upgrade.
[23:00] <k1l_> sulfasal: ubuntu doesnt use apt to upgrade to a new release
[23:00] <nameless> acovrig: ^
[23:01] <w0jrl> sulfasal: If you are running Ubuntu Server or an accessibility service like Orca, run sudo do-release-upgrade.
[23:02] <sulfasal> even if I'm not, according to kil_
[23:03] <k1l_> sulfasal: on the desktop you can use the update-manager which is a gui
[23:04] <shr30> Hello
[23:05] <w0jrl> sulfasal: If you are running a desktop version, sudo do-release-upgrade will work even if you're not running accessibility services.
[23:08] <andrea> salve...
[23:08] <sulfasal> kil_: how does update-manager supposed to work. I enter at prompt it just runs an update, that's all
[23:08] <Guest3355> buonasera
[23:08] <sulfasal> do you mean Muon Update Manager?
[23:09] <w0jrl> sulfasal: Try update-manager -d.
[23:09] <sulfasal> coz that's what I see when I enter 'update manager' in Software Center
[23:10] <k1l_> sulfasal: you run kde?
[23:10] <k1l_> w0jrl: stop giving bad advice. the -d option is _only_ for developement releases. its not a workaround
[23:10] <sulfasal> w0jrl: same thing "software on this computer is up to date"
[23:11] <k1l_> sulfasal: and what is the output of "lsb_release -sd"
[23:11] <sulfasal> kil_: no the other one, forget what it's called
[23:12] <k1l_> sulfasal: there is more than 2 desktops :/ unity, gnome-shell, mate, xfce, lxde,...
[23:12] <sulfasal> 15.10, Haven't upgraded yet; wanna get my ducks in a row first :)
[23:13] <sulfasal> Damn, I thought it was gnome. How do I check?
[23:14] <sulfasal> Heck with it. I'll do $sudo do-release-upgrade. Goin...going...

[23:15] <sanitypassing> hey, arch linux user trying to learn more about ubuntu 'cause of the windows subsystem. Does ubuntu have something like arch linux's reflector application that will let me sort pacman's mirrors based on their speed?

[23:19] <Kev__> Hi Kids

[23:21] <Kev__> can anybody help me with the VZW thing ?

[23:21] <DeaDSouL> Hi, is it possible to prevent feeding energy to the battery even the power-cort is plugged-in ?
[23:22] <Rarrikins> DeaDSouL: Yes. That's typically done by removing the battery.
[23:22] <shr30> I have a heroin addiction
[23:22] <DeaDSouL> Rarrikins: smart :p ... I meant from software-side not physical
[23:23] <k1l> shr30: that is all offtopic in here. this channels focus is only technical ubuntu support
[23:23] <Kev__> I have verizon wireless access manager for the modem on a USB but ubuntu keeps getting an error trying to read the file
[23:23] <Rarrikins> DeaDSouL: There appears to be a solution for Thinkpads: https://askubuntu.com/questions/218148/stop-start-battery-charging-through-software
[23:23] <shr30> k1l: Of course, I am sorry for that
[23:24] <k1l> DeaDSouL: mostly no. that is handled by the bios and most times the OS can only get some statistics but not manage it.
[23:25] <DeaDSouL> Rarrikins: thanks i'll look at it
[23:26] <blackbird1> Hi
[23:42] <Pikia> How great is the Bash shell in windows 10?
[23:42] <Pikia> To me, I feel like its only good for devs atm
[23:44] <OerHeks> Pikia, besides wget & curl, great
[23:46] <doolboot> hello, i have some questions about installing windows alongside ubuntu
[23:46] <Jordan_U> !ubuwin | Pikia
[23:46] <doolboot> if i already have ubuntu installed on separate drives, will it help to unplug them before i install windows on another empty drive?
[23:47] <jemadux> how to emulate middle click with touchpad ?
[23:50] <doolboot> hello guys can anyone who knows about installing windows10 and ubuntu on 1 machine help me?
[23:50] <doolboot> if i already have ubuntu installed on separate drives, will it help to unplug them before i install windows on another empty drive? will it still break GRUB like this?
[23:53] <Kow> Debian packaging question: Why is it not possible to create a source package without building it? Makes it impossible to use pbuilder-dist. THanks.
[23:53] <OerHeks> doolboot, depends on the bios version i guess, UEFI ?
[23:53] <doolboot> i believe so
[23:53] <Kow> (Im not about to install 150 build depends on my desktop for a package that i want to build in pbuilder)
[23:54] <doolboot> 0erHeks my mobo is a TA970, i will go look it up and see if it is UEFI
[23:54] <jancoow> Hi there. Anyone an idea how to install owncloud ?
[23:55] <doolboot> 0erHeks : it is a motherboard with UEFI bios.
[23:55] <doolboot> i have an extra, empty drive that i would like to install windows on
[23:55] <doolboot> is there any difference with UEFI or BIOS when I will do this?
[23:56] <OerHeks> doolboot, yes, then i would install win10 without ubuntu present, and there is an UEFI manual to get things right afterwards
[23:56] <Kow> nevermind got it with dpkg-buildpackage -S which makes the DSC which I can then feed into pbuilder-dist
[23:57] <doolboot> 0erHeks so I should unplug all my ubuntu hard drives? and which manual are you talking about? is it on ubuntu website?
[23:58] <OerHeks> !uefi
[23:59] <doolboot> oh ok thank you


[05:11] <duryodhan> hi I don't really want the daily builds, but I do want to use firefox 4.0; is there a way I can get the scheduled 'beta' releases that mozilla puts out ?
[06:03] <micahg> duryodhan: the PPA should be listed in the /topic
[07:34] <duryodhan> micahg: I have the ppa but my apt-get upgrade keeps getting the latest nightly
[07:34] <duryodhan> micahg: I only want relatively stable betas and not nightlies
[07:35] <micahg> duryodhan: no, there's a beta PPA
[07:36] <duryodhan> micahg: damn ... thanks a lot.. I feel dumb :D
[07:37] <duryodhan> micahg: I was looking at https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa
[07:37] <micahg> duryodhan: right, in the /topic for this channel is a link to the beta PPA
[07:38] <duryodhan> micahg: yeah found it .. I kinda assumed it was the same PPA that I had found using Google .. sorry for the trouble
[07:38] <micahg> duryodhan: np
[07:38] <duryodhan> micahg: if you have a few minutes to tell me how to downgrade from the nightly packet to the beta , that would be great too
[07:39] <micahg> which release are you on?
[07:40] <duryodhan> lucid
[07:40] <duryodhan> I am thinking of the following steps
[07:40] <duryodhan> remove mozilla-daily ppa, add firefox-next ppa (the beta only one)
[07:40] <duryodhan> use apt-cache showpkg firefox-4.0
[07:40] <micahg> duryodhan: there's a program in lucid-backports called ppa-purge which can help
[07:41] <duryodhan> ohh
[07:41] <micahg> use ppa-purge on the daily PPA, remove the daily PPA, add the beta PPA, and install firefox-4.0
[07:41] <micahg> I think that should work
[07:42] <duryodhan> micahg: I looked up ppa-purge .. if I understand it right, if I remove the mozilla-daily repo and add firefox-next ppa, and run ppa-puge on mozilla-daily ppa then it should go to firefox-next version
[07:42] <duryodhan> I am concerned since I don't want to remove firefox-4.0 , which might happen since its not in official repos
[07:43] <micahg> duryodhan: run ppa-purge before removing the daily PPA, you'll remove firefox-4.0 and then reinstall it from the beta PPA
[07:43] <duryodhan> micahg: hmm .. wouldn't removing the firefox-4.0 package make things go bad ?
[07:44] <micahg> duryodhan: why?  just make sure it's not running when you do it
[07:44] <duryodhan> ohh
[07:44] <duryodhan> ok thanks let me try
[08:06] <duryodhan> damn
[08:06] <duryodhan> crap The following packages have unmet dependencies:   firefox-4.0: Depends: firefox-4.0-core (= 4.0~b7+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~mfn~lucid3) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages
[08:06] <duryodhan> for the repository mentioned in the /topic
[08:07] <micahg> duryodhan: that should be in the PPA
[08:07] <duryodhan> hmm
[08:08] <duryodhan> seems ppa-purge didn't remove firefox-4.0-core for me
[08:08] <duryodhan> anyways removing it by hand seems to work
[08:08] <duryodhan> thanks a lot for your help
[08:08] <micahg> duryodhan: you can add firefox-4.0-core=4.0~b7+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~mfn~lucid3 to the apt-get line
[08:09] <duryodhan> I think the right thing to do would have been to add the firefox-next ppa and then run ppa purge
[08:09] <micahg> duryodhan: no, you wanted to purge the other PPA
[08:09] <duryodhan> micahg: I removed firefox-4.0 and then ran apt-get install firefox-4.0 which worked
[08:09] <duryodhan> yeah
[08:09] <duryodhan> but I think what happened is
[08:09] <duryodhan> that since there was no firefox-4.0 in the default repo
[08:09] <duryodhan> it didn't downgrade/remove firefox-4.0
[08:10] <duryodhan> it downgraded firefox-3.*
[08:10] <micahg> should've been sudo ppa-purge ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa
[08:12] <duryodhan> hmm I did ppa-purge ubuntu-mozilla-daily
[08:13] <micahg> that might work, idk, is it fixed now?
[08:13] <duryodhan> looking at how ppa-purge seems to work, I am pretty sure it would have downgraded to the beta version if I had that ppa in
[08:13] <duryodhan> yeah its working now :)
[08:13] <duryodhan> thanks a lot !
[08:13] <micahg> duryodhan: great, np
[12:56] <Milos_SD> HI

[22:47] <micahg> chrisccoulson: could you please push up the changelog for xulrunner-1.9.2.head?
[22:47] <chrisccoulson> micahg - yeah, can do. sorry, i thought i did that already :/
[22:48] <micahg> chrisccoulson: the release tag doesn't seem to be there
[22:50] <chrisccoulson> micahg - ok, done now
[22:51] <micahg> chrisccoulson: thanks
[22:52] <micahg> I'll have to upload the fix for Seamonkey and xulrunner later tonight
