[00:00] <celroc> bella: I think squid22's got a good suggestion there.  You may want to try that first, actually
[00:00] <Duke__> ever used the mailutils and mail command?
[00:00] <bella> ok thanks let me try it
[00:02] <bella> when doing "sudo apt-get update" it says: 'dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run sudo dpkg --configure -a to correct the problem
[00:03] <k1l_> bella: do that
[00:03] <celroc> bella: Ah, okay, sometimes that happens when the computer freezes during an update.  Type "sudo dpkg --configure -a" in the terminal and then it should guide you through the process
[00:04] <wjtaylor> how can I get the motherboard info? Is there a command to read the make/model?
[00:04] <1JTAAQU5Y> brandon@Tobasco:~$
[00:04] <bella> ok celroc
[00:05] <k1l_> wjtaylor: "lshw"
[00:05] <celroc> Avenger_: Well, it looks like someone got their TobascoSauce :-D
[00:05] <Avenger_> celroc : i am very happy now. thank you. my dad says thnk you too.
[00:06] <celroc> Avenger_:  You're both very welcome, but Bashing-om did most of it ;-)
[00:06] <Bashing-om> Avenger_: Welcome to ubuntu system administration.
[00:06] <Avenger_> Bashing-om : is there anything you need sir?
[00:06] <wjtaylor> kll_ do I need a specific package for this?
[00:07] <Bashing-om> Avenger_: "  is there anything you need sir? " -> nope, I am blessed.
[00:07] <celroc> Avenger_: Kind of you to offer to help him back :-)
[00:07] <Avenger_> Bashing-om : the lord has given you a gift sir.
[00:08] <bella> ok "sudo dpkg --configure -a" is done. is there anything else i need to do?
[00:08] <k1l_> wjtaylor: did you run it in terminal?
[00:08] <celroc> bella: Run "apt-get -f install" again, it should finish this time ;-)
[00:09] <k1l_> bella: run "sudo apt-get update &&sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to make sure you got all updates now
[00:09] <Bashing-om> Avenger_: Perhaps so. I try. But oft times ,, fall far short of glory.
[00:10] <celroc> Bashing-om: Everyone does.  Thankfully, Jesus gave us a merciful gift :-)
[00:11] <bella> apt-get -f install is not working. doing apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade now
[00:13] <Bashing-om> celroc: Indeed :))
[00:17] <Ben_drowned> Need help with TLP: Every time I use the "STOP_CHARGE_THRESH_BAT0=80" on the /etc/default/tlp config file, my battery just stops charging no matter what %. I commented the line #START_CHARGE_THRESH_BAT0=55 but no effect, and i have no clue whats causing this. If I comment the STOP_CHARGE line and reboot, battery still wont charge, but if i use the command " tlp fullcharge" then its back to normal. Any help is appreciated.
[00:18] <Ben_drowned> (lenovo x200 running 14.04 | kernel 3.13.0-38
[00:18] <Avenger_> i want to learn so much about linux ubuntu so that one day i can help people and create useful stuff with it.
[00:19] <Avenger_> i am very new to linux and i just wanted to be different so i am running linux ubuntu now.
[00:19] <celroc> Avenger_: Give yourself time and take it in appropriately sized steps.  You'll get used to it in time :-)
[00:20] <celroc> Avenger_: Your willingness to use the command-line ("Terminal") is a good sign :-)
[00:20] <Avenger_> celroc : for now i will order a website hosting plan and a domain. then i will create a website with joomla and call it brandons brain repository.
[00:20] <Avenger_> celroc : terminal is the best. i feel like sich a man whenever i type commands to it
[00:20] <celroc> Avenger_: Neat.  What kind of site will it be?
[00:21] <kaddi> the command-line is dope :)
[00:21] <daftykins> Avenger_: that's nice and all, but this channel is for ubuntu support questions only. you're welcome to take general chat to #ubuntu-offtopic though
[00:21] <celroc> Avenger_: I like to hear that about the command line.  You'll find it to be an incredibly powerful, beastly tool once you get the hang of it.
[00:21] <Avenger_> celroc : i think it will be about my quest to learning linux ubuntu. i will post and write about things that have helped me along the way.
[00:21] <yusuf1> yup Avenger_ need try terminal :v im new also, but i use linux since a  7 years ago :3
[00:21] <Ben_drowned> anyone? for TLP help?
[00:21] <yusuf1> just regular usage (browsing , gaming, etc)
[00:22] <LMNOP> the terminal is so boss
[00:22] <LMNOP> useing it all the tiem..
[00:22] <yusuf1> i have no idea with TLP Ben_drowned :3
[00:23] <Ben_drowned> oh :( well thx for replying yusuf1 :)
[00:23] <LMNOP> wuts tlp
[00:24] <Ben_drowned> advanced power management for thinkpads LMNOP
[00:24] <LMNOP> hmm okay i dunno
[00:27] <LMNOP> Ben_drowned, is it a well supported model or is a new one
[00:46] <blueingress> When do we have emacs 24.4 for ubuntu.?
[00:46] <k1l_> !info emacs
[00:46] <twirck-user-2084> #mac
[00:48] <k1l_> blueingress: well, emacs 24 is the version right now iirc
[00:49] <k1l_> blueingress: and, 24.4 was released yesterday. if you see when the freezes were for the past releases that is a clear answer
[00:54] <blueingress> k1l_, want to try it now...
[00:55] <k1l_> blueingress: see if there is a PPA already or a .deb package or compile it yourself
[00:56] <yusuf1> what is emacs? some editor? i always using vim btw :3
[00:59] <dreki> My computer seems to be suddenly running more slowly than usual at times. I have checked the CPU, RAM  and disk usage but those are normal. What could I look for next?
[01:00] <tecywiz121> Hey. In 14.04, I have fetchmail configured to deliver mail to dovecot through LMTP. Problem is, fetchmail is starting before dovecot. I figure I can do something with upstart, but I don't know how to get started. Anyone?
[01:00] <climbup> dreki: are you familiar with the program "top"?
[01:00] <blueingress> yusuf1, I used vim for 15 years, But I am using emacs more and more
[01:00] <climbup> you could leave it running and watch the highest culprits in any category
[01:01] <dreki> climbup: I was using htop to see my processor and memory usage.  I know what top is but haven't used it
[01:03] <climbup> dreki: htop will do the trick, too. the key is just to have it open while you're experiencing the slowness
[01:03] <yusuf1> tecywiz121: you can use upstart,
[01:03] <climbup> if you sort the process list by CPU usage descending, whatever's on top is likely the culprit
[01:06] <yusuf1> tecywiz121: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8608667/
[01:06] <yusuf1> the pre-start script will check the process run or not before the main script running
[01:07] <dreki> climbup: thanks for your help
[01:09] <tecywiz121> yusuf1, It looks like fetchmail is using a different format of script, it's located in /etc/init.d/fetchmail
[01:10] <dreki> climbup: I don't have any processes that use a lot of CPU or memory but I have one that Htop highlights in yellow for a few seconds at a time. I looked online to see what it means when a process is highlighted in yellow but can't find anything.
[01:12] <yusuf1> ohh... tecywiz121, you mush explore the init.d/fetchmail script first, or pre-start will check the output of /etc/init.d/fetchmail status (if available) , or replace the init.d script with upstart (a little bit tricky but not difficult)
[01:14] <yusuf1> or you can add script in dovecot upstart :D and prevent fetchmail auto start when the server boot up:D
[01:15] <ZZRMike> will mv move a file that's currently open in a process?
[01:18] <tecywiz121> yusuf1, So add a "start on" line to /etc/init/dovecot.conf?
[01:18] <tecywiz121> Sorry, I'm really not familiar with how the boot process works :P
[01:20] <B0bsF1sh> if I experience read-error on swap-device followed by kernel panics twice a week running 12.04 LTS on VirtualBox - would it likely be something in my Ubuntu installation or VirtualBox?
[01:23] <yusuf1> i don't know tecywiz121 exactly, if there are upstart script for dovecot, maybe you can add the pre-start script section
[01:24] <yusuf1> so the dovecot will execute the pre-start script first before running dovecot
[01:24] <alashkham> https://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2012/09/pngyTdm25fXBd.png
[01:24] <yusuf1> i'm new also in upstart, just learn a 2 weeks ago :D tecywiz121
[01:25] <alashkham> lines like these appear whenever using 3d acceleration
[01:25] <tecywiz121> yusuf1, Cool, I'll do a little digging around. Thanks so much!
[01:25] <alashkham> whether in Unity or Gnome
[01:26] <alashkham> my graphics card is Radeon Xpress 1250
[01:26] <climbup> dreki: what's the process name?
[01:26] <alashkham> it supports 3d acceleration

[01:36] <linux_dream> hi guys, can someone help my friend who tried to install Ubuntu 14.04, he is using a RAID laptop
[01:37] <linux_dream> he installed the OS on a partition, but bootloader was installed to sda
[01:37] <linux_dream> and now he cannot boot windows nor ubuntu
[01:38] <ObrienDave> linux_dream, boot system with a live DVD/CD
[01:38] <linux_dream> yeah he is there
[01:38] <linux_dream> I've read on the web that he must install grub on his RAID  Ubuntu partition or so..
[01:39] <linux_dream> but it's not working for some reason
[01:39]  * ObrienDave know nothing about RAID installs
[01:40] <linux_dream> I see.... anyone else can help?
[01:40] <linux_dream> thanks ObrienDave
[01:40]  * Corey84 wishes the little he did he could forget lol
[01:41] <Corey84> LinusTorvaldII, ObrienDave the issue is ?   can try but admittedly im not expert
[01:41] <Corey84> linux_dream, ^
[01:42] <linux_dream> the issue is my friend who is trying to install Ubuntu 14.04 on his laptop (RAID)
[01:42] <Bashing-om> !raid | linux_dream , best i recall grub installs to partitions on all drives::
[01:42] <linux_dream> he has windows 7 and he just installed Ubuntu 14.04
[01:42] <linux_dream> but he was asked where to install bootloader... and he chose sda
[01:43] <linux_dream> because no other choice were there or so.  and now he cannot boot windows nor ubuntu
[01:43] <daftykins> linux_dream: what's providing the RAID? intel chipset?
[01:43] <linux_dream> hmm he didn't tell me
[01:44] <Bashing-om> linux_dream: Most levels of raid require a /boot partition, and grub installed to each of the disk's /boot partitions.
[01:44] <linux_dream> i want him to come here
[01:44] <linux_dream> i need a link from web
[01:44] <LinusTorvaldII> hello did someone ask me a question
[01:44] <tracyone> ==!
[01:45] <Corey84> on a fedora box but set to accept raid http://ur1.ca/ig71u
[01:45] <Corey84> see the seperate /boot/
[01:45] <daftykins> linux_dream: a link for what...
[01:46] <Corey84> LinusTorvaldII,   nick complete fail sorry
[01:46] <LinusTorvaldII> i think he needs to install grub
[01:46] <linux_dream> for him to connect to IRC  #ubuntu
[01:46] <linux_dream> from firefox
[01:46] <LinusTorvaldII> ok se ya
[01:46] <Corey84> to the raid master tho right /
[01:46] <linux_dream> he's coming here
[01:46] <Corey84> linux_dream, webchat.freenode.net/#ubuntu
[01:47] <linux_dream> thanks a lot
[01:47] <Corey84> if not on a live or other pc
[01:47] <linux_dream> he's on a live cd
[01:47] <Corey84> can he load a live at least (if you know)
[01:47] <linux_dream> (via usb)
[01:48] <linux_dream> ok I think he's here now
[01:48] <Corey84> the nick ?
[01:48] <linux_dream> Matterwave
[01:48] <Matterwave> Hello
[01:49] <Corey84> Matterwave,    welcome understand you have a raid install issue that correct?
[01:49] <Matterwave> I am unable to boot either my windows 7 or ubuntu after upgrading to 14.04
[01:49] <daftykins> personally i don't think the Ubuntu install would've used a config compatible with whatever RAID Windows was using
[01:49] <Matterwave> I don't know if it has to do with raid, I am not familiar with how all this works well enough to understand if that's the issue
[01:50] <daftykins> telling us the system type and what RAID setup it had would be a good starting point
[01:50] <daftykins> (laptop/desktop - make + model, etc)
[01:50] <Matterwave> What I can say is I had previously installed 12.10 and dual booted with windows 7. I installed 14.04 where 12.10 was, and now when I start up my computer, grub starts, I click "ubuntu" and then I get a black screen, and then an error
[01:50] <Corey84> can you install pastebinit then provide the output link from this in a terminal (from the live)   (lsblk-fm ; sudo parted -l ; locate mdadm)|pastebinit
[01:50] <Corey84> pastebin the error too pls
[01:51] <Matterwave> I took a picture of the error
[01:51] <Matterwave> I can upload it
[01:51] <Corey84> brb   rebooting
[01:53] <Matterwave> my internet is quite slow
[01:53] <MarGul> I use xubuntu and I am trying the startup disk creator to create a windows 7 bootable USB stick for my roommate. I can browse for my .iso file but as soon as I select it nothing happens. I cant click make startup disk. Is there any other programs that do similar things?
[01:55] <squinty> MarGul:  http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[01:55] <squinty> MarGul:  or check pendrivelinux.com  for other alternatives and tutorials
[01:56] <Matterwave> http://imgur.com/3sCbLwe
[01:56] <daftykins> MarGul: use 'dd' instead.
[01:56] <Matterwave> that's the error I get upon trying to boot ubuntu
[01:56] <MarGul> Thanks squinty, I will have a look at the first link you sent me first
[01:57] <daftykins> Matterwave: share the output of the above commands Corey84 asked for
[01:57] <Matterwave> ok, hold on
[01:58] <daftykins> Matterwave: you're familiar with pastebin sites yeah?
[01:59] <MarGul> daftykins: is this how you do it using 'dd'? http://askubuntu.com/questions/59551/how-to-burn-a-iso-to-a-usb-device
[01:59] <Matterwave> Yeah, I will paste-bin
[01:59] <Matterwave> http://pastebin.com/GxGjaCUf
[01:59] <daftykins> wow i'm horrified to see someone use the term 'burn' for USB devices :(
[02:00] <Sway> lol
[02:00]  * ObrienDave envisions smoking USB ports ;P
[02:00] <daftykins> MarGul: yep, have the flash drive formatted FAT prior to make sure, then it's as simple as "dd if=/path/to/windows.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M"
[02:01] <daftykins> where /dev/sdX is your flash drive.
[02:01] <MarGul> awesome! Thank you
[02:01] <ObrienDave> fat32
[02:01] <sjm> daftykins, why format it first if you're going to overwrite it with dd?
[02:01] <Matterwave> so I have no idea what to do now D:
[02:01] <daftykins> sjm: because reasons
[02:06] <Corey84> former / current unetbootin user   daftykins ?
[02:06] <daftykins> never
[02:06] <Corey84> standard behavior of such users lol hence why i asked
[02:07] <daftykins> Corey84: which part, is standard behaviour?
[02:07] <Corey84> format prior to dd  lol
[02:08] <linux_dream> so how can we help Matterwave?  He must install grub on the ubuntu partition?
[02:08] <daftykins> i've just seen a couple of wonky setups before, so felt like adding it into the mix
[02:08] <daftykins> i don't think it has anything to do with GRUB
[02:08] <linux_dream> he would have to mount Ubuntu's partition and install grub on it?
[02:08] <daftykins> but i don't personally get the /dev/mapper setups so i'm not touching that one with a barge pole :)
[02:09] <Corey84> wait missed the paste hes on /dev/mapper?
[02:09] <Matterwave> If you guys need the links again: Here's the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/GxGjaCUf and here's the error I get tryign to boot ubuntu: http://imgur.com/3sCbLwe
[02:09] <MarGul> daftykins: I go 'sudo dd if=/home/gullberg/Desktop/X17-24209.iso of=/dev/sdf1 bs=4M' and my terminal wont show me anything. Almost like it froze :(
[02:09] <daftykins> i'd mount the Ubuntu partition and compare the /etc/fstab file's UUIDs to the real UUIDs
[02:09] <daftykins> MarGul: yes dd doesn't give output
[02:09] <MarGul> So I just wait until I get the new line in my terminal? Thats when its done?
[02:09] <daftykins> MarGul: wait and it'll be done shortly, or switch to another terminal, work out the PID of 'dd', then run "kill -USR1 $PID"
[02:10] <daftykins> but, waiting would be easiest
[02:10] <Corey84> lsblk -fm  (notice the space ) pls re run
[02:10] <Corey84> jsut the lsblk -fm |pastebinit not the entirety
[02:11] <Matterwave> ok
[02:11] <Matterwave> http://pastebin.com/nNwzhNKU
[02:11] <Matterwave> This is lsblk -fm
[02:12] <Corey84> so BOTH drives are seen as the same not sure why but that is not helping
[02:13] <daftykins> Corey84: because RAID? :)
[02:13] <Corey84> no should be sepearte
[02:13] <daftykins> what do you mean?
[02:14] <Corey84> revisit the last paste see the uuids
[02:14] <Matterwave> I have really no idea how any of this is set up haha
[02:14] <daftykins> i don't see any UUIDs in any paste
[02:17] <Corey84> sorry about that ---  he needs uuids and doesn t have them is my point
[02:18] <Matterwave> I don't even know what a UUID is
[02:18] <linux_dream> so how do we fix that
[02:18] <linux_dream> he used to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu 12.10 without any problems
[02:18] <Yrie> I wonder...
[02:19] <Yrie> !UUID
[02:19] <Matterwave> Yeah, I used to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu 12.10. Now that I installed ubuntu 14.04 over ubuntu 12.10 I can no longer boot anything
[02:19] <Matterwave> other than using my flash drive
[02:20] <linux_dream> here is a similar problem I think....: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1559762
[02:21] <linux_dream> not sure if that help
[02:21] <Matterwave> Before I had it set up so that I got an option to boot either windows7 or ubuntu, before grub loaded, so that grub only loaded if I chose "ubuntu"
[02:21] <Matterwave> now, grub just loads from start-up without any previous windows
[02:21] <Matterwave> and it doesn't even have windows 7 as an option, only ubuntu, and advanced options and the like
[02:21] <Matterwave> after choosing ubuntu I get the black screen as mentioned above
[02:21] <daftykins> linux_dream: we don't really need you acting as counsel :)
[02:22] <linux_dream> ok
[02:22] <frib> i have a sony vaio with freshly installed ubuntu and it locks up when i connect a monitor w/VGA cable.  how can I fix this? thanks
[02:30] <Matterwave> so any ideas guys?
[02:30] <MarGul> daftykins: I ran dd and it said that it was successful. When I inspect my usb stick I can see that there has been files added. But when I try to start up the computer with my usb stick it wont show up in the bootorder. Probably meaning that it is not a bootable usb stick?
[02:32] <daftykins> MarGul: i'd use a one-time boot menu key if your system has one
[02:36] <Matterwave> nobody knows how to help me? T_T
[02:37] <MarGul> daftykins: No to sure what that means :/ . Allt the time before when I have done this I have just created the bootable usb stick and then the computer has recognized it. when i go fdisk -l it says that my usb stick is bootable
[02:38] <daftykins> MarGul: what kind of computer is this? laptop? make+ model?
[02:39] <MarGul> No it is a desktop, And it is a ASUS running F2 A85-M Pro as a motherboard

[03:28] <o11c> but how does a single maintainer managed to mess up two packages this badly?
[03:28] <o11c> gdb cannot be used with c++ in Trusty
[03:33] <o11c> even after fixing the obvious problem in libstdc++.so.6.0.19-gdb.py, the printers.py file contains raise ValueError, "Cannot find type %s::%s" % (str(orig), name)
[03:33] <o11c> which is python2 syntax
[03:34] <o11c> but the same developer switched gdb use python3
[03:34] <o11c> same ubuntu maintainer I mean
[03:35] <blazingpossum> hello
[03:35] <Artemis3v> o11c, is the debian package the same?
[03:36] <blazingpossum> anyone proficient with gpg in the command line?
[03:37] <blazingpossum> hi jeiworth
[03:37] <o11c> Artemis3v: Debian package told doko to gtfo and reverted to python2
[03:37] <jeiworth> hey blazingpossum
[03:37] <arda> Hello I install AMD DRiver from  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka5gBMlo-zo
[03:38] <blazingpossum> jeiworth how do i highlight a message like that?
[03:38] <lumberjackin> i install buts
[03:38] <o11c> (I think making gdb use python3 is a foolish decision, since it breaks all 3rd-party scripts and it is often impossible to rewrite them, but I can deal with it if at least the whole OS agrees on what version it is!!!)
[03:38] <jeiworth> blazingpossum, like what?
[03:38] <arda> But i see error here http://postimg.org/image/rmgm7qbrd/
[03:38] <o11c> blazingpossum: it highlights when people say your name
[03:38] <arda> Lenovo G410
[03:38] <blazingpossum> ohhhh
[03:39] <blazingpossum> o11c thanks
[03:39] <o11c> arda: did you install the ubuntu package from 'restricted', or the package from amd's website? I'm not going to watch a video
[03:40] <jeiworth> blazingpossum, ;)
[03:41] <blazingpossum> jeiworth do you use gpg at all?
[03:41] <jeiworth> soooo after upgrading to 14.10 i have a strange problem with the context menus of the menu-bar, they are all transparent and don't show anything... anyone has experienced something like that?
[03:41] <jeiworth> blazingpossum, yes, mostly for signing
[03:42] <arda> o11c: I have tried before, but experienced the same problem
[03:42] <jeiworth> all other context menus are fine... tried resetting to standard theme but no show :(
[03:43] <o11c> arda: that does not answer my question
[03:45] <arda> o11c: sebelumnya saya menginstall driver AMD .run dari website namun mengalami kesalahan yang sama
[03:45] <ahsm> whats up homie g's
[03:46] <o11c> arda: um, that wasn't english
[03:46] <o11c> arda: but if you install from the amd website even once you permanently break ubuntu, so you have to reinstall it from the CD or whatever
[03:49] <Zephyr1139> arda, I watched the video.  Did you do everything he described from a terminal session?
[03:50] <ahsm> do any of u guys have ccna?
[03:51] <jeiworth> !beta
[03:51] <rww> !ot | ahsm
[03:51] <arda> Zephyr1139: yap
[03:51] <jeiworth> hmm what was the channel for pre-release again...?
[03:52] <rww> jeiworth: #ubuntu+1
[03:52] <jeiworth> rww, ah yes, thanks
[03:53] <Zephyr1139> arda, and rebooting didn't resolve? Perhaps your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is still configured for your mainboard GPU.
[03:54] <arda> Zephyr1139: ok I try it
[03:56] <Zephyr1139> arda, (I know you just left) perhaps the "sudo amdconfig --initial" command didn't prune that file.
[03:56] <bmelcher84> hello everyone
[03:57] <bmelcher84> trying to mount a raid5, anyone know much about this?
[03:57] <agent_white> Evenin'
[03:57] <bmelcher84> ello white
[03:58] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, is it mdraid or hw?
[03:58] <bmelcher84> in disk utility, i can see the sata host adapter and it says raid5 on it, and below it are the 4 500gb harddrives
[03:58] <bmelcher84> hw
[03:58] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: hw*
[03:59] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, sorry, I meant the sata-adapter is hardware-raid or was it set-up as software-rais (mdraid)?
[04:00] <bmelcher84> hardware
[04:00] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, and the raid is configured in the adapter bios but you see the single disks in the OS?
[04:01] <bmelcher84> correct
[04:01] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, hmm did it work before?
[04:02] <bmelcher84> yes, it was working on windows and i am trying to recover the data with a live boot ubuntu
[04:02] <bmelcher84> so basically trying to mount it
[04:02] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, ok, what adaptor do you have?
[04:03] <jeiworth> perhaps you need an additional firmware package....
[04:03] <bmelcher84> it says ati sb7x0/sb8x0/sb9x0 sata controller raid5 mode
[04:03] <bmelcher84> or do you need the info from the bios?
[04:04] <bmelcher84> or post i mean
[04:04] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, coud be helpfull, let me check with the allmighty google
[04:05] <bmelcher84> i tried the google foo earlier and started going in a circle, so thought i would poke my head in here for a little
[04:06] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, hehe
[04:06] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: i need to remember to quote your name as i talk to you
[04:09] <bubbasaures> bmelcher84, You can tab complete nicks.
[04:09] <bmelcher84> bubbasaures: :)
[04:09] <bmelcher84> bubbasaures: I just forget to :p
[04:12] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: so im basically confused on how to mount this thing... I feel that I am missing something here
[04:12] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, ok it seems to be a chip that is emulating a hw raid but is actually a sw raid
[04:12] <wlxmhls1> hi
[04:13] <bmelcher84> hm
[04:13] <bmelcher84> okay
[04:14] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: so how would I go about mounting this raid
[04:14] <daftykins> !fakeraid
[04:16] <jeiworth> good point daftykins
[04:16] <jeiworth> also, install mdadm
[04:16] <bjrohan> I am starting a program from the command line, which starts, then crashes, the terminal captures the error, but it is so long I can't scroll to the top to get it all, how do I pipe the results to a file?
[04:17] <bmelcher84> daftykins: the read looks like it wants to setup a raid from scratch, not just mount an existing one...
[04:17] <bmelcher84> or i could be missing something here
[04:17] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: okay, 1 sec
[04:17] <daftykins> bmelcher84: the last link was the most relevant
[04:17] <jeiworth> bjrohan, 2>&1 /path/to/file
[04:18] <bmelcher84> daftykins: thats the one i read
[04:19] <bjrohan> jeiworth: so ./DraftSight 2>&1 /home/bjrohan/Draft_Error
[04:19] <jeiworth> bjrohan, if you just want to pipe the error output it's <command> 2> /path/to/file
[04:20] <bjrohan> ok
[04:20] <jeiworth> the &1 just adds all output from the script to the output file
[04:20] <jeiworth> or, mor correct, standard out
[04:21] <bjrohan> jeiworth: gotcha, I did that, and tried to take the pipe as an input file
[04:22] <Steven-mobile> I'm installing ubuntu on an unallocated half of my HD. The other half has win7pro. Ubuntu installation doesn't give me the option to install side-by-side windows. did I do something wrong?
[04:23] <daftykins> Steven-mobile: sounds like Windows is installed in either legacy or EFI mode and you may have booted ubuntu in the other, preventing it from detecting it
[04:23] <ss__> dfs
[04:23] <daftykins> !uefi | Steven-mobile have a read here to confirm
[04:23] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: i am running a live boot, and i am getting errors with install mdadm
[04:24] <bmelcher84> it wants to install postfix but it says it cant intall it
[04:24] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, I suppose to get that mpunted you would have to manually configure the raid5 disks first
[04:24] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: that wont break the raid?
[04:24] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, ok, so you are trying to rescue from a live-cd?
[04:24] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: I have to make sure not to do that, as the data is very important
[04:24] <Steven-mobile> Thanks daftykins, ubottu
[04:24] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: yes
[04:25] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, hmm can you try to run the command mdadm from console, just to see if it's provided?
[04:26] <bmelcher84> i tried, its not there
[04:26] <jeiworth> :/
[04:27] <bmelcher84> i tried apt get update and it keeps failing at the end with the last 5 places to update and says 404 not found <IP_ADDRESS> 80
[04:27] <bmelcher84> maybe apt-get isnt updating all the way
[04:27] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, it's probably because you burnt it on a USB as CD, which is read-only
[04:28] <bmelcher84> well shiet
[04:28] <bmelcher84> lol
[04:28] <bmelcher84> durr
[04:28] <jeiworth> iso9660 file system ;)
[04:28] <bmelcher84> hmm
[04:29] <jeiworth> you could try to make a real install of ubuntu on a USB to have an upgradable system
[04:29] <jeiworth> but that takes time
[04:29] <bmelcher84> yeah, seems like there would be a way to bypass this some how
[04:29] <jeiworth> on the other hand, you'd have a decent rescue system
[04:29] <bmelcher84> true
[04:29] <bmelcher84> I will do that in a few days
[04:30] <squinty> unetbootin + livedvd iso +persistance
[04:30] <bmelcher84> gonna try and make it by with live boot first
[04:30] <bmelcher84> maybe i can mnt a fake drive in memory?
[04:30] <bmelcher84> or maybe that is going backwards
[04:30] <bmelcher84> wait
[04:31] <bmelcher84> actually i installed skype earlier on this thing, how was that possible?
[04:31] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, true, but will obviously not be persistent, next reboot all is gone
[04:31] <bmelcher84> true
[04:31] <bmelcher84> which is okay for now jeiworth
[04:32] <squinty> fwiw, i can log onto <IP_ADDRESS> here with web browser.  no 404
[04:32] <bmelcher84> odd
[04:32] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, I know, I have also been able to install some things on live usb but some things not, not sure what is the restriction there
[04:33] <bmelcher84> i see
[04:33] <jeiworth> I suppose it's a space issue...
[04:34] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: would you mind poking around for a second with teamviewer
[04:34] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, anyway, it's always good to have a full system on a decent sized usb for any eventuality ;)
[04:34] <bmelcher84> im not sure thats it, mdadm is only 4oookb
[04:34] <bmelcher84> yeah, i think i will do that next!
[04:35] <jeiworth> bmelcher84, ok, but no guarantees
[04:35] <bmelcher84> i feel its something simple and im just missing somehting
[04:35] <bmelcher84> ofcourse
[04:38] <bmelcher84> so even if i did have a full installed system, how would i take a raid on another computer and recover it on the fully isntalled system? wouldn't that break the raid if the raid was setup on another system?
[04:43] <ss__> S4
[04:44] <ss__> whether there is a person had play lol
[04:44] <ss__> ?
[04:45] <DenBeiren> anyone around that knows something purging old kernels?
[04:45] <Tim_Miller> use a big hammer?
[04:46] <DenBeiren> i tried a glass hammer,.. didn’t work :-)
[04:47] <Steven-mobile> im getting errors asking me if /dev/sdb contains GPT partition table while im trying to add an EFI partiton. Would it just be easier for me to just add a partition table with livecd gparted then install windows7pro? sorry, I'm just totally lost
[04:48] <squinty> DenBeiren:  personally I just use the Synaptic package manager to remove them.   do a search for   linux-image   in synaptic package manager to see which ones are currently installed
[04:49] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels
[04:49] <Tim_Miller> i cannot get xubuntu to connect to the internet
[04:50] <DenBeiren> squinty: and bubbasaures , i’m getting errors purging the old ones (it’s a serverversion)
[04:50] <Tim_Miller> its connected to the network
[04:50] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, pastebin your work.
[04:51] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, What ubuntu release is this?
[04:51] <DenBeiren> http://pastie.org/9664330
[04:51] <DenBeiren> 14.04
[04:52] <DenBeiren> http://pastie.org/9664331
[04:53] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, Did you try to install the 3.16 and it did not finish...etc, in other words does a update/upgrade show anything broken or other errors?
[04:54] <bukai> Hi. I am currently on Ubuntu 12.04, and I need to upgrade it to the latest version. How can I do it from the terminal?
[04:55] <satelite> just tried to install openjdk7 (running version 14.04 of ubuntu), and i have seen an error related to this file path pop up quire a few times at this point: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin/java, anyone know what it means? i havent found anything meaningful to me yet while searching online
[04:55] <bean1020> does anyone know if it is possible to create a recovery partition for ubuntu
[04:55] <bubbasaures> !do-release
[04:55] <DenBeiren> bubbasaures: there has indeed been an issue,.. the /boot was 99% full and i didn’t notice
[04:56] <bubbasaures> bukai, https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/installing-upgrading.html
[04:56] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, This a boot partition full?
[04:56] <DenBeiren> bubbasaures: updating/upgrading now,.. paste follows
[04:57] <DenBeiren> yes,.. 98% or sthing, that why i wanted to purge some old ones
[04:58] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, Has to be room, if you're broke cause of no room than removing is different than a command at times.
[04:59] <DenBeiren> uhu,.. where can i get info on that?
[04:59] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, that is last cause act, so it would help if we got down to facts here however.
[05:00] <DenBeiren> i don’t quite understand (not native english) last couse act :s
[05:01] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, Last thing you do only if you have to.
[05:02] <bubbasaures> And not advice that is pertinent yet.
[05:02] <DenBeiren> ok,.. where should i go from here now to solve the issue?
[05:02] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, You have not clearly outlined your situation to be honest, not sure to be honest.
[05:03] <DenBeiren> ok,.. i’ll try to clarify,..
[05:06] <DenBeiren> i’m running 14.04 server, /boot is 100% full (i noticed it filling up too late) i tried to purge the old ones using sudo apt get purge „oldest kernel”
[05:07] <DenBeiren> then i get the errors stated in this paste: http://pastie.org/9664331
[05:07] <squinty> DenBeiren:  maybe a read of  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels
[05:08] <bjrohan> How do I set a path variable in ubuntu 14.04 so that it is persistent
[05:08] <bjrohan> the program I wish to add is /usr/brlcad/bin/dxf-g
[05:08] <bubbasaures> DenBeiren, Try this  if your not using the 3.2 kernels sudo apt-get autoremove linux-image-3.2.0-61-generic linux-image-3.2.0-63-generic linux-image-3.2.0-64-generic linux-image-3.2.0-65-generic linux-image-3.2.0-67-generic
[05:09] <DenBeiren> i’ll try the „autoremove” commands,..

[05:45] <AsSlowAsHell> preferably some cross-platform backup program
[05:45] <AsSlowAsHell> most programs I am finding are focused on things like backing up your home directory
[05:46] <AsSlowAsHell> but I'm looking for something more along the lines of disk ghost / disk clonging
[05:46] <hateball> AsSlowAsHell: Clonezilla
[05:46] <Tim_Miller> crashplan
[05:46] <pam> Has anyone used the liveboot version on a Macbook from 2006?  Trying the live boot.  Not doing anything.  Just seeing the purple screen with some jumbled garbage white specs
[05:46] <AsSlowAsHell> hateball, checking it out
[05:46] <AsSlowAsHell> Tim_Miller, checking that out too
[05:46] <AsSlowAsHell> thanks guys
[05:48] <Tim_Miller> i am having a network problem that i have never ran into before i have a high ping loss on the lan
[05:49] <Tim_Miller> just with one computer
[05:49] <AsSlowAsHell> bad network cable?
[05:49] <pam> anyone?
[05:50] <Tim_Miller> i'm about to unplug the network cable from the computer with the issues and try it on another computer
[05:53] <pam> Has anyone used the liveboot version on a Macbook from 2006?  Trying the live boot.  Not doing anything.  Just seeing the purple screen with some jumbled garbage white specs
[05:54] <Tim_Miller> unplugged network cable from one computer to another same network port on the wall
[05:54] <Tim_Miller> first computer has a 50-75% ping loss, second computer has a 0% loss
[05:56] <pam> Is there any specific version of Ubuntu I should use with a macbook from 2006?
[05:56] <pam> Is there any specific version of Ubuntu I should use with a macbook pro from 2006?
[05:57] <jeiworth> pam, try the latest
[05:57] <pam> jeiworth: tried it.  I'll paste a picture of how the startup looks.  Funky as hell
[05:58] <Tim_Miller> lol, sounds like the normal version
[05:59] <jeiworth> pam, hit us
[06:00] <pam> loading phone
[06:00] <jeiworth> zzzzzzZZZZZzzzz ;oP
[06:01] <Tim_Miller> has anyone heard of a network card that is going out (causing a high packet loss)
[06:01] <Tim_Miller> i have only ever had them completely fail or work normally
[06:02] <Tim_Miller> not an inbetween
[06:02] <jeiworth> Tim_Miller, what you are describing is either taht or your gateway/router dying
[06:02] <pam> Also, does anyone know if you can access mac's icloud via ubutnu?
[06:02] <pam> ubuntu*
[06:03] <jeiworth> pam, afaik only via web
[06:03] <anwarhsagor> I am new here...Help lplzz?
[06:04] <Tim_Miller> i am experiencing 50-75% ping loss i unplug the cable and plug it into a different computer and i am now getting a 0% ping loss
[06:06] <cLoCkWiSe> hello
[06:06] <cLoCkWiSe> Tim_Miller: what OS
[06:06] <cLoCkWiSe> must be your router
[06:06] <Tim_Miller> xubuntu on the system that is having problems, xp on the system that is working fine
[06:07] <cLoCkWiSe> oh i used to have a similar problem with xubuntu
[06:07] <cLoCkWiSe> do you have your default gateway and DNS set properly
[06:07] <Tim_Miller> yes
[06:10] <Tim_Miller> what is the difference between Auto DHCP and Auto DHCP addresses only
[06:12] <drussell> Tim_Miller: auto dhcp sets, everything via dhcp, ip address, default gw, dns etc etc auto dhcp address only means you can set everything manually except the ip address which it will pick up from dhcp
[06:15] <Tim_Miller> i have tried setting the dns manually and automatically
[06:16] <Tim_Miller> when i try to ping a website i get an unknown host
[06:17] <cLoCkWiSe> is your network even working
[06:17] <cLoCkWiSe> can you ping your router
[06:17] <cLoCkWiSe> ?
[06:18] <cLoCkWiSe> your network card on xubuntu machine may not be working? do you have an active connection?
[06:18] <Tim_Miller> i am getting about a 50% ping loss when i ping a computer on the lan
[06:19] <Tim_Miller> same when i use another computer on the lan to ping the ubuntu computer
[06:19] <cLoCkWiSe> /etc/network/interfaces
[06:19] <cLoCkWiSe> you have dchp enabled in there?
[06:19] <Tim_Miller> yes i do
[06:20] <Tim_Miller> it is pulling and address off of the dhcp server
[06:25] <bmelcher84> jeiworth: hey dan, I'm back

[06:34] <cloudbud> jnhghy : opened should i pastebin it ??
[06:34] <somsip> cloudbud: you have phpmyadmin installed locally and want it to access mysql on another server?
[06:34] <jnhghy> cloudbud: yup
[06:35] <cloudbud> somdip : yup
[06:35] <somsip> cloudbud: can you access mysql on command line locally first? Make sure it is open to connections
[06:36] <cloudbud> jnhghy : http://pastebin.com/dvBarFk3
[06:36] <cloudbud> somsip : i can
[06:36] <cloudbud> i configured it for centos successfully
[06:38] <somsip> cloudbud: what version of ubuntu is this, and did you install from package or from source?
[06:38] <cloudbud> somsip : its 14 ubuntu and installed it using apt get
[06:39] <cloudbud> jnhghy : can you help me ??
[06:39] <jnhghy> cloudbud: I'm editing the file now ... I've just reinstalled my system and I have to take the steps for my config also :)
[06:39] <cloudbud> jnhghy :thanks pls help me if u can
[06:40] <RSchilder> Who can help me? I got a problem with compiling to PHp 4.5.33
[06:41] <somsip> RSchilder: er...really 4.5?
[06:41] <RSchilder> Yes I'm sorry XD
[06:41] <jack> running trusty...no sound, only "0dummy
[06:41] <Tabmow> Is there a way to move the windows controls from the left side to the right side with unity?
[06:41] <somsip> Tabmow: no
[06:42] <jack> ouput" in the panel
[06:42] <Tabmow> somsip: I read a whole bunch about it being possible previously... was the latest release not available to do so?
[06:42] <somsip> Tabmow: maybe. I've never used unity. The currect version can't be moved
[06:43] <RSchilder> I got the error: cp: cannot stat 'sapi/cli/php.1' : No such file or directory.  Wubi installer wasn’t present in version 13.04 and it got me really worried.. because some noob students i teach want it badly
[06:47] <jnhghy> clodubud: yup you are right .. you are on a vps ... can you access phpmyadmin on the vps?
[06:47] <cloudbud> jnhghy : yup
[06:48] <somsip> legend: it appears to still be there, but no idea about plans for future versions
[06:48] <cloudbud> the login opage is appaering
[06:48] <jnhghy> and you are trying to configure phpmyadmin on the vps to connect to a remote mysql right?
[06:48] <legend> somsip: they should never remove Wubi, it’s the gateway to Ubuntu for many newbies.
[06:48] <cloudbud> right
[06:49] <somsip> legend: I'm okay with Wubi and believe it has a place. Many people here loathe it and believe it should be killed with fire. Each to his own
[06:49] <jnhghy> and on the vps you've edited the config.inc.php file, you've added the 5 lines I've added and you get nothing with that?
[06:50] <cloudbud> jnhghy : let me try again
[06:51] <legend> somsip: it’s a boon for the noobs. not so usefull for seasoned professionals
[06:51] <somsip> legend: I use it on my wife's laptop when I need emergency ubuntu away from home. Anyway, this is not a support discussion so EOT for me
[06:54] <WJB> what is the daemon in unbuntu that i can use to execute a command at startup or automagically on reboot
[06:54] <somsip> !cron | WJB
[06:55] <WJB> ok now that i have your attention i think
[06:55] <WJB> Ok, Here is my ? I need to setup in crontab so that at every reboot it updates the time via usr/sbin/ntpdate, so isn’t it just @reboot /usr/sbin/ntpdate..?  I need to know exactly how the crontab line looks and should i use root crontab or crontab -e type?
[06:56] <agent_white> WJB: ntpdate already runs at boot.
[06:56] <somsip> WJB: @reboot /usr/sbin/ntpdate in the root crontab looks like it will do what you want, but whether it achieves the aim is a different matter entirely. Surely ntpd is what you need?
[06:56] <agent_white> No need for a cronjob.
[06:56] <cloudbud> jnhghy : i cant view the tables
[06:56] <WJB> everytime i hard boot i have to reset the time an architechture issue apparenlt that may not be fixable unless i can run a command during startup or at reboot time etc?
[06:57] <WJB> it will update it on the command line with sudo after im logged in etc
[06:57] <jnhghy> cloudbud: but can you see the extra tab with the new server in the phpmyadmin login page?
[06:57] <agent_white> WJB: Maybe you need to sync the hwclock at boot? `/sbin/hwclock --adjust && /sbin/hwclock --systohc`
[06:57] <cloudbud> no im pastng the imange
[06:58] <WJB> ok is that the exact command i can use in root crontab?
[06:58] <agent_white> Yep!
[06:58] <WJB> everything inside the tic marks that is?
[06:58] <WJB> ok cool
[06:59] <WJB> tylet me try ill let you know
[06:59] <agent_white> WJB: You should also enable the ntpd service.
[07:00] <WJB> how do i enable it
[07:00] <cloudbud> jnhghy : http://postimg.org/image/5hh41p22n/
[07:01] <jnhghy> cloudbud: I need to see an image before you login :) or is that what you see when you got to the login screen?
[07:01] <agent_white> WJB: `sudo apt-get install ntpd` `sudo service ntpd enable`
[07:01] <cloudbud> whene i do ip/phpmyadmin i see that :(
[07:01] <WJB> awesome thanks

[07:26] <Tim_Miller> how do you install a program on ubuntu
[07:26] <somsip> Tim_Miller: from the software centre, or from the command line with 'apt-get install {package}'
[07:29] <Tim_Miller> command line
[07:29] <jnhghy> cloudbud: I see, you'll have to allow access to phpmyadmin directory to All, I've modified apache.config from phpmyadmin a little try this: http://pastebin.com/tTZ3UXL6
[07:32] <cloudbud> jnhghy : no still the same issue. anyways thanks for r efforts and help
[07:32] <cloudbud> :)
[07:32] <jnhghy> cloudbud: you still get a page not found?
[07:33] <cloudbud> no page not found error is resolved but i am getting the page that i pastebin you no tabels nothing
[07:33] <jnhghy> cloudbud: you have ssh access to server?
[07:34] <cloudbud> yes
[07:34] <cloudbud> i can
[07:35] <jnhghy> clodubud: ssh to server then using wget call localhost/phpmyadmin and save the html in a file/display the html save it local on your computer and open the html file with your browser
[07:39] <cloudbud> `/join #phpmyadmin
[07:47] <Tim_Miller> i need a program that will allow me to test a website on the lan before transfering the code to the webserver to go live
[07:47] <ikonia> a web browser perhaps ?
[07:48] <Tim_Miller> i need to be able to open it on multiple devices
[07:48] <ikonia> multiple web browsers ?
[07:48] <ikonia> on multiple devices
[07:48] <Tim_Miller> so i need to be able to point mobile devices to an ip address
[07:48] <ikonia> then when you are happy with it click "transfer"
[07:48] <ikonia> you can point mobile devices to an IP, enter an IP in the browser
[07:49] <Tim_Miller> yep, so basically a web server just it will be on the lan rather than the wan
[07:49] <Tim_Miller> as far as i know i dont know of any program that will just allow you to give a folder a ip address
[07:51] <nusr> can i ask about libreoffice calc here? how can i set noncontiugous ranges
[07:51] <geirha> Tim_Miller: That's what web servers do ...
[07:51] <ikonia> Tim_Miller: do you understand how webservers wrok ?
[07:51] <ikonia> work ?
[07:51] <ikonia> at a basic leve
[07:51] <ikonia> level
[07:51] <Tim_Miller> yes i know at a basic level
[07:52] <ikonia> ok, so you understand you can just serve up directories on the file system
[07:52] <Tim_Miller> that just clicked into my head a few minutes ago lol
[07:52] <geirha> nusr: For specific questions about libreoffice usage, you'll probably get better answers in #libreoffice
[07:54] <nusr> thanks geirha, i just searched and realized there is a channel for that too...only problem is ubuntu is the only channel where people are actually alive
[07:55] <m4n14k> with who i chat yesterday as mariusz_k about problem with gpt
[07:56] <blackyboy> Hi everyone, i have setup a local DNS server using bind9 in Ubuntu, while i dig @<IP_ADDRESS> dns.myoffice.com the answer was 0 and i have assigned my forwaders to <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:56] <blackyboy> how can i setup a local dns with the name of my website name ?
[07:56] <somsip> blackyboy: how local? Just your machine or for a LAN?
[07:57] <ikonia> blackyboy: I don't think you really want/need that
[07:57] <ikonia> blackyboy: a simple solution would be to put an entery in your hostfile
[07:57] <ikonia> rather than a dns setup for one url
[07:58] <blackyboy> somsip: for lan
[07:59] <blackyboy> i have 20 vms in my proxmox local server and every vm need to assigned a name so i have to do it, and same time it want to be in the name of my website name, cos i have to use the wildcard certificate with those vms for my applications
[07:59] <blackyboy> ikonia: no already i have added in host file but i want to assigned from DNS
[08:00] <ikonia> blackyboy: why do you want it from dns ?
[08:01] <blackyboy> assume my website was blackyboy.com, now i want to setup local DNS in the same name, while i dig to any one of the local vm as text.blackyboy.com i dont want to look for my website in internet it want to look in my lan.
[08:01] <ikonia> blackyboy: you'll find it easier just using the host file
[08:01] <blackyboy> ikonia: its my boss order to do a DNS local in the name of website we have
[08:01] <ikonia> blackyboy: you'll end up with an over complex soution
[08:02] <ikonia> blackyboy: what dns servers do the clients currently use ?
[08:02] <blackyboy> now its using <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:02] <ikonia> blackyboy: ok - so that is a problem then
[08:03] <ikonia> blackyboy: speak to your boss and either get a.) why he wants it in dns b.) explain that a host file entry would be more realistic
[08:03] <blackyboy> ikonia: just now i have setuped my dns server and while i dig for my localhost from dns server its doing to internet. even i have removed the entry <IP_ADDRESS> from network entry, now there is only <IP_ADDRESS> for dns-nameservers
[08:04] <ikonia> blackyboy forget a local dns server - it's not that simple
[08:04] <blackyboy> ikonia: adding hostfile is easier and i want to learn a new way too :)
[08:04] <ikonia> blackyboy: hence why you need to find out a.) why you NEED a dns server b.) explain to your boss a host file is more realistic
[08:04] <ikonia> blackyboy: oh, so it's not a boss mandate then, you just want to learn
[08:05] <blackyboy> ikonia: its order from him. But its a opportunity for me to learn new thinks so me to intrested
[08:06] <ikonia> blackyboy: I think you need to explain to him that a host file is a better option as you've have to change your whole resolver setup
[08:07] <blackyboy> fine let me try my own thanks @ ikona
[08:07] <rindolf> Hi all. How do I install ia32-libs on Ubuntu x8-64? I want to run x86-32 executables.
[08:08] <ikonia> blackyboy: you understand you're not just setting up a dns server fore your url, you'll have to change your whole network resolver for everything for these devices ?
[08:08] <lesshaste>  If I do... x11vnc -ncache 10 -safer -localhost -nopw -once -display :0  then it listens on port 5900
[08:08] <lesshaste>  how can I get it to listen on port 5901?
[08:11] <rindolf> Anyone?
[08:11] <EsoRottica> rindolf, I think the ia32-libs was renamed to ia32libs-multiarch?
[08:11] <rindolf> EsoRottica: ah, thanks - let me try.
[08:13] <rindolf> EsoRottica: nothing with "ia32" anywhere.
[08:13] <rindolf> EsoRottica: according to apt-cache search.
[08:14] <hateball> !multiarch
[08:14] <hateball> :|
[08:14] <hateball> ubottu: There was a time you had useful factoids. That is no longer so.
[08:22] <lesshaste> is there some way to scp a file from A to C via B without storing it in B?
[08:23] <bibi-23> I'm trying to make a ssh connection from a terminal, but it hangs, I've tried ctrl+c but it still hangs, how can I abort (without closing the window)?
[08:23] <somsip> lesshaste: scp user@A:/path/file user@B:/path/
[08:23] <somsip> lesshaste: erk...should be to C per your example.
[08:24] <lesshaste> somsip, I am on A
[08:24] <somsip> lesshaste: what do you mean 'via B'? To what end?
[08:24] <lesshaste> somsip, ok so A is my home computer
[08:24] <lesshaste> C is my work computer
[08:24] <lesshaste> but I can't connect directly from A to C
[08:25] <lesshaste> A can connect to B and B can connect to C
[08:25] <somsip> lesshaste: gotcha. I'm not aware of a simple one line command then
[08:26] <agent_white> lesshaste: 02:23 < shevy> print '#{TKBPS}' is non-sensical, you could
[08:26] <agent_white> eep
[08:26] <lesshaste> :)
[08:26] <agent_white> http://superuser.com/questions/276533/scp-files-via-intermediate-host
[08:26] <agent_white> ^ :D
[08:26] <rindolf> hateball, found it here - http://askubuntu.com/questions/454253/how-to-run-android-sdk-in-ubuntu-64-bits
[08:26] <lesshaste> agent_white, wow :)
[08:26] <agent_white> I bet there's some netcat fancy things you could do as well, though not mentioned in that list.
[08:27] <somsip> agent_white: impressive. I hope I never have to use it :)
[08:27] <agent_white> lesshaste: I was curious about your question, and I just googled "chain scp through computers"
[08:27] <agent_white> ;PP
[08:28] <agent_white> Though apparently, the 'correct' way to say it is multi-hop scp transfer/scp through ssh tunneling/or scp through intermediate host.
[08:30] <lesshaste> agent_white, I am trying them all
[08:30] <agent_white> lesshaste: Let me know which works best for you! I want to know.
[08:30] <agent_white> :)
[08:30] <Guest001> hi all
[08:31] <lesshaste> scp -oProxyCommand="ssh B nc -v %h %p" thefile C:destination
[08:31] <lesshaste> that works!
[08:31] <lesshaste> I don't really understand what it does
[08:31] <agent_white> yayay i was right! netcat!
[08:31] <agent_white> :D
[08:31] <agent_white> probably a reverse ssh
[08:32] <hateball> you also have the "-3" option in modern scp
[08:32] <hateball> read the manpage ;b
[08:32] <agent_white> man scp
[08:33] <agent_white> hahaha woops!
[08:33] <agent_white> hateball: Nice find!
[08:33] <lesshaste> hateball, oh... can you translate the command line to something modern?
[08:35] <lesshaste> agent_white, it's very confusing.. I would love to know exactly waht the command line deos
[08:36] <johelish> Hey guys! I'm looking for something to monitor and log everytime the internet goes down for my server. We've been having network issues at the office and I want to know exactly how often it happens
[08:36] <johelish> Do you have any tips?
[08:36] <lesshaste> johelish,  ping :)
[08:37] <johelish> lesshaste: you mean an infinite ping and then ctrl+f for when it doesn't hit? And what should I ping? Google?
[08:37] <agent_white> lesshaste: Basically "scp -oProxyCommand" means that you are sending this command to a proxy (or your 'intermediate/B
[08:37] <agent_white> host, who will in turn execute the command following
[08:37] <lesshaste> agent_white, what is interesting is that I have to type in the password for C where you don't if you connect from B to C
[08:38] <lesshaste> johelish, seems sensible. But what is ctrl+f for here?
[08:38] <Ben64> infinite ping isn't really awesome for that
[08:38] <johelish> Ben64: that was what I was thinking
[08:38] <johelish> I'm really just intressted in when it doesn't respond
[08:38] <agent_white> So, upon receving the scp connection it will proxy (or transfer) that scp connection to your final destination via ssh, using the same hostname/port given to scp (%h and %p)
[08:39] <Ben64> why not just fix the networking problem
[08:39] <agent_white> lesshaste: Hmmm...
[08:39] <hateball> johelish: nagios
[08:40] <lesshaste> agent_white, ok so ... it's all very mysterious to me. B has ssh port forwarding disabled afaik. But this proxycommand works
[08:40] <agent_white> Aye, because of netcat.
[08:40] <johelish> Ben64: Our provider claim there's no problems and that they have 99.98 % uptime. The server is connected directly to the wall so I'd like to see
[08:40] <agent_white> netcat basically is like a little tool for sending/receiving/creating sockets n' stuff.
[08:40] <Ben64> johelish: use crontab and wget or something
[08:41] <johelish> That's smart
[08:41] <agent_white> lesshaste: In short, you're tunneling a scp connection over ssh.
[08:41] <Ben64> will make a log entry every x minutes or whatever
[08:41] <lesshaste> agent_white, aha!!  Maybe this could solve my unison problem too :)
[08:42] <lesshaste> agent_white, I really want to sync A and C using unison. Currently I am resorting to copying which is bad
[08:42] <lesshaste> can netcat solve that for me too?
[08:42] <agent_white> I couldn't tell you, I'm not familiar with unison. But I think you should try it :D
[08:43] <lesshaste> agent_white, unison rocks! :)
[08:43] <lesshaste> agent_white, it's an amazing filesystem synchronisation tool
[08:44] <agent_white> Ooo... it's like a nfs...
[08:44] <agent_white> I'll have to check it out :D
[08:44] <lesshaste> :)

[09:02] <jd-yue> 111
[09:02] <waressearcher2> I got used PC and there is a video card inside it says "radeon" but where can I look exact name of that card ? dmesg ? anywhere else ?
[09:02] <DJones> waressearcher2: lspci should give you the info
[09:02] <ActionParsnip> waressearcher2: lspci | grep -i vga
[09:03] <ActionParsnip> waressearcher2: sudo lshw -C display
[09:04] <waressearcher2> 04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)]
[09:04] <waressearcher2> now, question, is that card supported in linux ?
[09:04] <waressearcher2> I know gforce are supported, what about radeon cards ?
[09:05] <lesshaste> waressearcher2, they  should be
[09:06] <lesshaste> waressearcher2,  is there a problem you are trying to fix?
[09:06] <k1l> waressearcher2, gforce is supported. it just depends on the exact card. old cards get kicked out of nvidia support and you need to run the free dirver then.
[09:07] <waressearcher2> until 10 days ago I used RIVA TNT 16MB, and I used old nvidia driver, and now that PC died and I got another one, used one, Core2Duo E2160, 2GB RAM, and Radeon Video, so now I have one problem to get drivers for radeon
[09:09] <k1l> waressearcher2, it should load the radeon free driver and that should work ootb
[09:09] <waressearcher2> https://www.pcarena.hu/oriaskep/ati-radeon-x300se-1756.jpg that one looks like my card, what are my chances to get it working ?
[09:09] <waressearcher2> k1l: "free driver", I need acceleration, what if I want to run gl software
[09:09] <k1l> waressearcher2, what is the issue actually? is this a new install? or did you run the old install from the other setup?
[09:10] <k1l> waressearcher2, did you look at what the radeon driver got for you?
[09:10] <k1l> waressearcher2, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[09:10] <k1l> you could try the fglrx driver in the ubuntu repos, but i dont know if it supports your card anymore. you need to find that
[09:11] <waressearcher2> I'm still thinking of should I return that radeon and get some old geforce card or should I dig in to all that stuff trying to setup that radeon, especially when I heard radeon cards are poorely supported
[09:11] <k1l> waressearcher2, stop
[09:12] <k1l> waressearcher2, please first read the link i just showed you. you dont sem to have any clue and are mixing a  lot of things. read that page to get a basis of knowledge, please
[09:13] <ActionParsnip> waressearcher2: AMD make drivers for Linux, you will need to check if that GPU is supported by the proprietary driver, otherwise the driver in use will be used.
[09:13] <k1l> waressearcher2, just to give you a hint. if you start a pc with a amd/ati card it will load the radeon driver out of the box.
[09:18] <waressearcher2> k1l: that page says "RV370 Radeon X300, M22" is fully supported, but what is "M22" ?
[09:19] <k1l> some sort of technical description.
[09:20] <k1l> waressearcher2, but again: what is your actual issue? i think you just have a " omg i need the latest amd driver" issue, which in fact is none.
[09:20] <k1l> is there anything not working with your video card?
[09:21] <MMukherjee> !info remod
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> imho, a mid range Nvidia will be better
[09:35] <vitimiti> Hi
[09:47] <fortynine> YA
[09:55] <hayer_> Okey, this might sound like a stupid idea but I have my reasons; Can I install a desktop in ubuntu server, configure my software and services, then remove the desktop again? Any downsides?
[09:56] <geirha> hayer_: why do you need a "desktop"?
[09:57] <agent_white> hayer_: Yep you can. The downside would be ensuring you removed everything.  As well as missing a learning experience for setting up a headless server, which is invaluable.
[09:57] <agent_white> I would recommend not installing the desktop.
[09:58] <hayer_> agent_white: I know very well how to set up a headless server. The provider of the software/service requires a desktop for their consultant to configure it, boss signed it said "okey, figure it out".. Well, I've never needed a desktop env in a server, so no experience with "installing a desktop in a server"..
[09:59] <agent_white> hayer_: Well then there's your answer: you have no choice but to do it :)
[09:59] <hayer_> And yes, I've asked them to configure it on one server and move the config files over -- the just pointed to the contract and said "but your boss said you would fix a desktop, and we won't move the config files"
[09:59] <k1l> basically install the ubuntu-desktop package (or another one). might need to install a lightdm, too.
[09:59] <agent_white> Odd a consultant would need a environment to do their work.
[09:59] <hayer_> yes, but.. argargarga WHY?! And what is the easiest way to purge all the packages I dont need?
[10:00] <hayer_> agent_white: their mainly windows guys.
[10:00] <hayer_> k1l: so a apt-get install and remove of ubuntu-desktop should be enough?

[10:01] <barmixer-bot> pipecork: Hacking attempt failed.
[10:02] <k1l> hayer_, dont know if it will remove all the packages afterwards. that might need to take a look at the package list afterwards

[10:02] <hayer_> well, save package list before, and compare to the one after should be enough.. then just remove all new packages.
[10:03] <TnSZ> hello there, I'd like to create a partition on a thumb drive and...it is not possible!
[10:03] <agent_white> hayer_: Probably.  Though may as well ask what packages their software depends on, then remove the rest installed on that date as long as it isn't neeeded.
[10:03] <TnSZ> gnome disk utility in 14.04. offers no option to create partition when the disk is blank
[10:03] <Ben64> TnSZ: you might have to make a partition table first
[10:04] <TnSZ> Ben64, it used to be a one-click thing in disk utility before 14.04.
[10:04] <Ben64> TnSZ: nope
[10:04] <staticshock007> hi
[10:04] <hayer_> agent_white: the funny thing is that the software is already installed and running. Its just a rather large config update, no upgrade, new install, only config changes.
[10:04] <TnSZ> now this option seems to have been removed..
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> TnSZ: use gparted instead
[10:04] <agent_white> hayer_: Even better then, I suppose. Since you'll have less chance of removing dependencies.
[10:04] <TnSZ> well, I used it for years for it...now I explicitly had to install gparted, and
[10:05] <agent_white> I would just ask the consultant what additional, unnecessary software he might've used for his tools, and ask him to remove it or notify you of what he did install?
[10:05] <TnSZ> when I go for the partition table, it shows me a list of partition table types, among which nothing is familiar, and I dont know which one is correct
[10:05] <TnSZ> or suitable for me
[10:05] <agent_white> Though if you grep dpkg.log you should see everything he might've installed. Then check if any packages are dependent on things installed there.
[10:06] <k1l> hayer_, will a sftp not work?
[10:06] <Ben64> TnSZ: usually you're going to want msdos
[10:06] <agent_white> k1l: FTP?! What is this, Windows?! ;P
[10:06] <hayer_> k1l: meh, it just seems that they refuse to cooperate and keep repeating "we need the guy"
[10:06] <agent_white> hayer_: Aka, "we need a reason to bill you" ;P
[10:06] <hayer_> gui *   not guy >_>
[10:07] <TnSZ> earlier, in gnome disk utility, there was visibly places buttons over the lower half of the page,  'create partition' 'delete partition'  'lock partition'...why do usable (and useful) things get removed?
[10:07] <agent_white> hayer_: Haha, you should pester them aboutit. "Why can't you do it remotely... etc."
[10:07] <TnSZ> and what would I have to do with msdos? am I using windows?
[10:08] <agent_white> TnSZ: When you choose a filesystem layout, you need to take into consideration if you are going to be using that USB across multiple OS's.
[10:08] <Ben64> TnSZ: i don't know if you're using windows, but the vast majority of drives are msdos partition tables
[10:08] <agent_white> If only on linux/mac, ext4 is fine. If linux/mac/windows, you need to use fat32.
[10:09] <TnSZ> I never was asked to choose msdos..
[10:09] <kevinkien> !status
[10:09] <agent_white> TnSZ: Do you know the path of the USB device?
[10:09] <TnSZ> yes
[10:10] <agent_white> `mkfs.vfat /dev/sdX`
[10:10] <Ben64> which doesn't make a partition table
[10:10] <agent_white> rather... `mkfs.vfat /dev/sdX1` ... X being the drive letter, and 1 being the partition.
[10:10] <TnSZ> if 'across multiple OSes' means windows, too, I dont suppose it needs to be so much of a concern for a linux user. there is FAT format to choose..
[10:11] <TnSZ> there used to be, at least
[10:11] <Ben64> TnSZ: what are you trying to accomplish
[10:12] <agent_white> Ben64: Ah yeah, didn't think about that! He just needs to use fdisk.
[10:12] <TnSZ> agent_white, that's all I'm talking about. not everyone is commandline-savvy, and why does a useful GUI element gets removed?
[10:12] <Ben64> it hasn't been
[10:12] <TnSZ> Ben64, I am trying to accomplish the simplest task of creating a disk partition
[10:12] <ActionParsnip> TnSZ: FAT32 has a maximum file size of 4Gb, if that suits your needs then fine....
[10:12] <dandre> Hello,
[10:12] <dandre> if I run
[10:12] <dandre> lsof|wc -l
[10:12] <dandre> I get 64580
[10:13] <ActionParsnip> hi dandre
[10:13] <Ben64> why is everyone jumping to filesystem when he hasn't even created the partition yet?
[10:13] <dandre> and if I run
[10:13] <dandre> ulimit -n
[10:13] <dandre> I get 1024
[10:13] <cfhowlett> !enter | dandre,
[10:13] <Ben64> dandre: less <enter> please
[10:13] <ActionParsnip> dandre: please press ENTER less
[10:13] <dandre> why is there such a difference?
[10:13] <agent_white> Ben64: More than likely a partition is already sitting there.
[10:13] <cfhowlett> dandre, because I
[10:13] <Ben64> agent_white: not according to TnSZ
[10:14] <agent_white> Ben64: Oh my mistake! I must have missed that.
[10:14] <cfhowlett> dandre, hard to read = hard to follow and understand = less likely to get help
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> dandre: ulimit is used to report file size limit
[10:14] <TnSZ> ActionParsnip, yes, in this case the size doesnt matter.  but I cant find FAT anywhere. I used to be able to select file format, size, everything..but now that window has disasppeared from gnome disk utility, and gparted shows me a list of part types, mac, msdos, bradpitt, madonna..
[10:14] <Ben64> dandre: ulimit and lsof show vastly different things, you might want to check what they both do
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> TnSZ: even in gparted?
[10:14] <Ben64> TnSZ: right, so pick msdos
[10:14] <agent_white> ^
[10:14] <Ben64> TnSZ: then you can create all the partitions you want
[10:15] <Guest61669> !status
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> dandre: my ulimit -n is also 1024  my lsof is 1926
[10:15] <dandre> ulimit -a => ... open files                      (-n) 1024
[10:16] <dandre> and from lsof man : lsof - list open files
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> dandre: ulimit doesn't have a -a option
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> dandre: ahh, it shows all limits
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> dandre: http://ss64.com/bash/ulimit.html
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> dandre: -n   is a subset of information of the -a
[10:17] <ActionParsnip> dandre: are you seeing issues with opren file handles?
[10:19] <dandre> no
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> dandre: then why do you care?
[10:20] <dandre> I was just surprised by this difference
[10:20] <Ben64> lsof shows a whole bunch of stuff that isn't files
[10:21] <Ben64> also duplicates, and ulimit is per user
[10:21] <dandre> ok thanks
[10:30] <flaritycat> Hi, a fast Q. Is there a simple way to get Firefox Always on Top? - Using Ubuntu, not looking for an extension.
[10:31] <k1l> flaritycat: right click on the window bar and select: always on top?
[10:32] <flaritycat> Yeah, ok. But if an update window queries, will that top firefox again?
[10:32] <flaritycat> And I believe I haven't seen "Always on top" funktion in Ubuntu+Firefox.
[10:33] <k1l> flaritycat: what ubuntu are you on exactly?
[10:33] <flaritycat> Uhm, Xubuntu 14.04.01 32bit.
[10:34] <k1l> ok, so its xfce. on ubuntu with unity there is tthat menue entry in the window-bar menu. i am not sure for xfce
[10:34] <EriC^^> hold alt + press space , select always on top
[10:35] <EriC^^> ( you can minimize quickly with alt+space+n btw )
[10:35] <flaritycat> k1l: yeah maybe thats why.
[10:35] <flaritycat> Thanks EriC^^ I will give it a try.
[10:37] <TnSZ> I chose msDDoS, and created the partition..thank you all for your help!
[10:39] <TnSZ> well..apparently not yet..the partition seems to be read-only.
[10:39] <TnSZ> man..didnt need none of this with the old disk utility
[10:41] <TnSZ> it's like barring the front entrance of a building and having people use the fire escapes to get to higher floors.
[10:41] <ment0s_> hello
[10:41] <ment0s_> Hello, Could some one tell me if using linux bridges is  completely secure when used in virtualization ? For example if  I give access to empty bridge br0 for example, so the question  is , is it safe for host operating system and will it take any  traffic load ?
[10:43] <waressearcher2> k1l: also, really ? can't someone just ask a question without having some particular issues ? are you what guardian of channel's purity ?
[10:45] <TnSZ> serious question..why should one -not one who can juggle with linux-admin, but just any average ubuntu user-  have to go through all this meaningless gparted routes just because a very straightforward, absurdly simple way to do the same thing is removed? why does it get removed? to make newcomers hate ubuntu and move to cupertino or redmond?
[10:45] <cfhowlett> waressearcher2, 1.  attitude.  less of.  2.  this is a support channel.  ask or answer support questions is the topic of the day.  other discussions are best held in #ubuntu-offtopic or elsewhere. these are the community expectations.
[10:45] <agent_white> TnSZ: Learning fdisk is a good idea.  Much easier than digging through gui fog.
[10:45] <TnSZ> absolutely senseless that gnome disk utility is changed from what it was in 12.10. to what it is in 14.04.
[10:45] <waressearcher2> cfhowlett: what about ubuntu derivatives, are they supported here ?
[10:46] <ObrienDave> yes, they are
[10:46] <cfhowlett> !flavors | waressearcher2 everything on this list is supported.
[10:46] <TnSZ> learning is fine, but it doesnt make up a reason for what I mentioned, agent_white.
[10:46] <ObrienDave> waressearcher2, yes, OFFICIAL Ubuntu versions are
[10:47] <agent_white> TnSZ: I understand. I personally find the difficulty to be part of the fun in learning. As once you figure it out, you have it down for good :)
[10:47] <maxvi> I want to write a program which gui is best for ubuntu ? (I prefer Python to write a program and using ubuntu 14.04)
[10:47] <EriC^^> maxvi: maybe python+gtk3
[10:48] <maxvi> EriC^^: Or best will be write some console program ?
[10:48] <TnSZ> agent_white, I agree. but it doesn't necessitate removing the easy one, and only leaving the hard way in there. whoever is curious can anyway go for the higher level. without having to remove the easy one
[10:48] <maxvi> so the people if they need can write gui
[10:48] <TnSZ> and whoever doesnt know yet, would not have to dig through things when the time demands other priorities
[10:48] <agent_white> TnSZ: Very true. You would know more than I, as I use the terminal instead of the GUI (for reasons such as this -- less prone to drastic changes)
[10:49] <agent_white> TnSZ: Maybe you could look into some alternatives?
[10:49] <EriC^^> maxvi: depends on what the program does, etc.
[10:50] <cfhowlett> agent_white, I tend to agree.  I've created far more problems via point and click gui than I have via gui.
[10:50] <ankitshah012> I am unable to install a file
[10:50] <TnSZ> oh yes, looking into..that's the problem, just 'as of now', you know..
[10:50] <ankitshah012> This is pertaining to export of variables
[10:50] <EriC^^> ankitshah012: elaborate further
[10:51] <agent_white> TnSZ: Understandable. But again, the frustration will pay off in the future. And then you can help others in this channel who run into the same problem :)
[10:51] <hateball> maxvi: It all depends on your target audience really. I'd suggest Qt, but that's me
[10:51] <k1l> ankitshah012: please put the command and the errormessage into a pastebin
[10:52] <ankitshah012> Ok I will do that
[10:52] <agent_white> TnSZ: Also, there are heaps upon heaps of guides using fdisk over any GUI you'll find.
[10:52] <ankitshah012> one sec
[10:55] <ankitshah012> http://pastebin.com/JEcpZapu
[10:56] <k1l> ankitshah012: what is the command you run?
[10:56] <ankitshah012> it is ./build.sh
[10:56] <ankitshah012> This is for a RISCV based project
[10:57] <k1l> ankitshah012: ok, can you draw the whole piture of what you are doing on what machine and what happens?
[10:57] <ankitshah012> Trying to build some files for a processor which will be a 6 stage pipeline
[10:57] <maxvi> hateball: it is program for me for now ) so I might be a console app but I don't know how the people will write GUI later I need to write some specificly in my console app ?
[10:58] <maxvi> hateball: or usually all GUI parse console output ?
[10:58] <TnSZ> think I solved it for now with disk utility. tried formatting again, and this time I was asked on mbr/dos compatibility, and therefafter I was able to use the (+) button to create partition as before.
[10:58] <agent_white> TnSZ: Awesome! :D
[10:59] <TnSZ> agent_white, not a gui designer, but those who are say that it is the deadliest sin to change a design that is working for the user..
[10:59] <TnSZ> :)
[11:00] <TnSZ> still, thank you for your help!
[11:01] <k1l> ankitshah012: support only here in this channel please
[11:02] <agent_white> TnSZ: Haha true. I hope you do consider going the cli/terminal route next time, you'll find that knowledge to apply across majority of Linux distro's.
[11:03] <boichev> what is the idea behind disabling the dot in an username on ubuntu and debian ?
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> boichev: in the middle?
[11:04] <boichev> ActionParsnip: yes
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> boichev: hmm,tbh, never used it....interesting
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> boichev: are you sure its not capital letters that are causing the issue (That was a bug of the installer back in the day)
[11:05] <EriC^^> boichev: a dot works in the middle
[11:05] <EriC^^> sudo useradd -m xx.xx
[11:06] <TnSZ> agent_white, yes, I will.
[11:06] <EriC^^> xx.xx:x:1002:1002::/home/xx.xx:
[11:06] <EriC^^> i wouldn't use it, but it works
[11:07] <boichev> EriC^^ useradd is skiping the regexp, adduser does not and tells you to use "--force-badname"... try it
[11:08] <EriC^^> yeah, just tried it
[11:08] <EriC^^> it seems reasonable though
[11:09] <EriC^^> maybe a program you download or something doesn't take into consideration the dot
[11:09] <EriC^^> ( like how /etc/passwd uses : to delimit stuff )
[11:16] <Douglas> Hello everybody! how to install ubuntu on my tablet? and what are the risks?
[11:17] <__unik> Douglas: I don't think it's not a googlable question
[11:17] <__unik> http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/linux/3531970/how-install-ubuntu-touch/
[11:18] <k1l> __unik: please dont just tell people to google.
[11:19] <__unik> k1l: yes but it could be a long answer so...
[11:19] <__unik> sorry
[11:19] <k1l> Douglas: that depends on some specs: what tablet exactly? is the bootloader open to flash other OS? which ubuntu do you mean? the ubuntu-touch or the regular desktop? etc.
[11:22] <Douglas> I want to install ubuntu toutch on android in an "orange" tablet
[11:23] <Mathisen> hmm does ubuntu work on tablets now days...  does it work for a " Samsung note 10.1 " ?
[11:23] <cfhowlett> !touch | Douglas
[11:23] <k1l> Douglas: well. since its all community support on arm devices (due to the bad driver situation) your best bet is to see if there was one who already made a port working for you.
[11:23] <cfhowlett> Mathisen, see the !touch wiki
[11:24] <Mathisen> !touch wiki
[11:25] <cfhowlett> !touch > Mathisen
[11:25] <Douglas> Thanks to all
[11:25] <k1l> Mathisen: the next ubuntu unity with MIR is right now made working on phones and tablets. see #ubuntu-touch . but dont expect it running on much devices. its not like putting a cd into a pc and running just fine
[11:26] <Goran_> ubuntu failed to install on my system. It doesn't see the partitions on the discs - says they're empty. I've also tried fedora, it had different problem, but also disc related. It's a Haswell Desktop (the 4Ghz one) with nvidia gpu
[11:27] <Goran_> the discs do contain partitions
[11:27] <k1l> Goran_: what stuff is on the hdd?
[11:27] <k1l> Goran_: can you bring up a live ubuntu?
[11:27] <Goran_> windows 8.1
[11:27] <cfhowlett> Goran_, typical behavior associated with gpt.  open a terminal and run gdisk
[11:27] <Mugen_Deutsche> hi guys
[11:28] <Mugen_Deutsche> how can i enable fire in compiz ?
[11:28] <Two> test
[11:28] <Mugen_Deutsche> so when i close a window the fire will come out
[11:28] <Two> mkay
[11:28] <skyfall> i have an issue in my lockscreen. when i boot into ubuntu , it appears as small screen and when i type in the password only it appears to full screen
[11:29] <k1l> !ccsm | Mugen_Deutsche but be very aware it can make your desktop not start anymore
[11:29] <Goran_> haven't tried the live ubuntu, ill try it now
[11:29] <Two>  isnt there a seection buttons on the top ?
[11:29] <Two> selection*
[11:29] <skyfall> please help me with this
[11:29] <Two> im using xubuntu myself
[11:29] <Two> and im new to this to
[11:30] <Two> my puter is to small to run windows
[11:30] <Two> lolsies
[11:30] <Two> now i have a small piece that can do way more
[11:30] <Two> funny
[11:31] <Mathisen> k1l yeah i understand that.. but can you tell me if they have it working on the model i said ?? no one is answering in other chan.. i have my tablet rooted and am using a custom rom right now but ubuntu would be nice to have on it
[11:31] <cfhowlett> Mathisen, if it doesn't appear on the !touuch list of supported devices, assume no
[11:31] <k1l> Mathisen: read the topic in that channel and see the link to the wiki to supported devices
[11:45] <Goran_> tried the live cd, it works, i can even mount the windows partitions, but the installer says no operating system found, doesnt see partitions!
[11:47] <asbjornenge> yo! is there a way to disable ipv6 dns lookups? Ideally for a particular domain...
[11:47] <Goran_> does ubuntu installer work with mbr and efi combination?
[11:47] <cfhowlett> !uefi | Goran_
[11:48] <rypervenche> asbjornenge: Only for a specific domain? Hmmm, not that I know of. What is the problem that you are running into exactly?
[11:49] <k1l> Goran_: can you pastebin "sudo fdisk -l"?
[11:52] <rypervenche> asbjornenge: You can edit your /etc/gai.conf to change the priority of the IP of that one domain.
[11:56] <rypervenche> asbjornenge: If you add the line "precedence ::ffff:<IP_ADDRESS>/128 100" where <IP_ADDRESS> is the IP that you want to take precedence over the rest, that should fix your problem. If the IP of the site changes though, you will need to update it.
[11:58] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: I tried this without any luck....
[11:59] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: I'm running under lxc (docker) and need to prioritize ipv4 for DNS service discovery
[12:00] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: I tried modifying gai.conf, but does not seem to have any effect at all... I've been testing with curl and a python app I'm trying to run...
[12:00] <asbjornenge> curl -4 everything works
[12:00] <rypervenche> asbjornenge: Why exactly? What is happening that is causing problems with just using IPv6?
[12:01] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: docker currently does not support ipv6... I have another containers querying docker API and populating the DNS... it can only get ahold of ipv4 addresses, so that is all I can use...
[12:01] <Ryvius> Help, I have two monitors and everything opens on the wrong monitor. How do I fix that?
[12:03] <xxLIGHTxx> join
[12:05] <rypervenche> asbjornenge: So your choices are to enable IPv6 in the docker container, there are several links to this: http://ryp.io/45 or http://ryp.io/46 . Your second option is to just disable IPv6. Depends on how important IPv6 is to you.
[12:06] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: well, I would like to enable ipv6 for the container, trouble is that the ipv6 addr is not exposed over the docker API, so how do I get ahold for it?
[12:07] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: I have also been trying to disable ipv6 for the container entirely without that stopping the dns AAAA queries...
[12:07] <asbjornenge> The container is on 14.04
[12:09] <rypervenche> asbjornenge: It looks as though they added it to iplocator. I might ask in #docker. Are you using the latest version of docker? https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/8319
[12:10] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: oh - YAY! uhm, I'm not on 1.3 yet... did this PR make it in?
[12:10] <asbjornenge> I'll dig around...
[12:10] <asbjornenge> then it is not too far away anyhow, thats great news! Thanks :-D
[12:13] <rypervenche> asbjornenge: No problem. Glad to see you're not giving up on IPv6 :)
[12:14] <He4dShOt> hey
[12:14] <He4dShOt> I'm having a problem with rsync
[12:15] <He4dShOt> it doesn't resume the file anymore
[12:15] <He4dShOt> I'm trying to copy a file to a samba share
[12:18] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: quick question while I wait :-P If I disable ipv6 on the host, would it not also be disabled on the containers?
[12:26] <rypervenche> asbjornenge: It shouldn't disable it on the containers, not that I'm aware of. But that would be a question better suited for #docker since I haven't tried it.
[12:27] <asbjornenge> rypervenche: alright, thanks again :-)
[12:33] <nkh> hi guys, I've tried to install ubuntu 12.04 on a HP ProBook 4520s, I tried the live session and it does not recognize the entire hard drive and shows it as unallocated space ... I've disabled anything extra in BIOS like UEFI boot and AntiTheft and other stuff (There were no secure boot option) ... any one has any idea? I can't install any other versions so please don't answer that with "Try 14.04"
[12:36] <peto> hi
[12:37] <nkh> Hi peto, seems no one is seeing :D just ask your question :)
[12:38] <peto> thks nkh, just reading
[12:39] <bottleofwater> nkh, you'll have better luck asking in a forum
[12:39] <bottleofwater> Such as askubuntu.com or ubuntuforums.org
[12:40] <nkh> bottleofwater: Ok thanks, It was like an emergency now so if no one had the experience, you're right.
[12:42] <peto> bye
[12:45] <gladioacuto> hi there
[12:45] <maxnard> buongiooooorno
[12:47] <gladioacuto> i'm new to ubuntu (coming from debian), i moved from unity desktop to fluxbox which is my preferred wm, but i like some unity-2d-panel appletz, such as the wifi icon and power button. What do they refer to? Where can i found the scripts launched by those icons in order to place them somewhere in my fluxbox wm?
[12:47] <gladioacuto> ciao maxnard
[12:52] <Millsy|Work> .leave
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> gladioacuto: if you run:  nm-applet   do you see the icon?
[12:54] <user74747> Hi! I'm trying to install git on a cubietruck box (arch=armv7l) that runs lubuntu. When I try to apt-get install git, I get a 404 message. What should I do?

[12:55] <bhalash> Good lord man, use a pastebun.
[12:56] <Pici> user74747: quantal (12.10) is no longer a supported release.
[12:56] <OerHeks> user74747, install a supported version
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> user74747: what you are doing is like searching for Windows updates on Windows 98
[12:56] <OerHeks> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
[12:56] <ActionParsnip> user74747: the packages cannot be found as they don't exist
[12:57] <OerHeks> DOA dead on arrival
[12:58] <user74747> unopaste: Sorry, it didn't seem so much in the term. What should I add to sources.list? Should I upgrade?
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> user74747: I suggest you wipe Quantal off and do a clean install of Trusty. Trusty is LTS and supported til April 2019. You can restore your user data from your backups
[12:58] <OerHeks> user74747, upgrade 12.,10 > 13.04 > 13.10 > 140.04 lts takes a long road
[12:58] <OerHeks> err 14.04
[13:00] <gladioacuto> ActionParsnip, if i run nm-applet i see a tray with a wifi icon which is different from that of the panel, but yes, i see it
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> gladioacuto: cool
[13:02] <user74747> Can I just install git from some kind of backports or something? I'd really rather use git today and bother with all the updraging later.
[13:03] <OerHeks> user74747, nope, as you need the git software first
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> user74747: your release is no longer supported in any way
[13:05] <__unik> Hello. How can I add more space to / partition?
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> __unik: uninstall old unused kernels and run:  sudo apt-get clean
[13:07] <__unik> omg how cool thanks. But ActionParsnip I want to add more using partition tool. Can you pls show me
[13:07] <gladioacuto> ActionParsnip, but it's only the wifi applet?
[13:08] <instigator> Hello. can cron jobs run when a computer is in sleep/suspend mode?
[13:08] <gladioacuto> ActionParsnip, what about battery and power button?
[13:09] <user74747> Ok, thank you! Then I'll just copy my project files to my laptop for now. Can anybody give some guide on upgrading a distro by several versions. Is it just like editing the spuces.list and doing update&&upgrade many times over?
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> __unik: dpkg -l | grep linux-image    will show the installed kernels.
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> __unik: uname -r     will show the running kernel. You can uninstall the oild kernels but NOT the running kernel
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> __unik: you will get about 120Mb per kenel back in space
[13:11] <__unik> ActionParsnip: Thank you but I meant I wanted to add more _disk_ space
[13:11] <__unik> using
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> __unik: if you want to pastebin the output of both commands, I can give the command to run to remove the old kernels.
[13:11] <__unik> partition tool
[13:11] <__unik> like resize the partition I meant
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> __unik: ahhh then you will need ubuntu liveCD and gparted
[13:11] <__unik> yes, only gparted didn't work
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> __unik: if you dual boot, I suggest you boot to Windows and resize your NTFS to be smaller then resize Ubuntu to the freed space]#
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> __unik: obviously be sure you have your important data backed up in case of catastrophe
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> __unik: it wont work in the running OS as the partitions are mounted, so you cannot touch them, hence why you need liveCD
[13:12] <__unik> ActionParsnip: thanks. I have 20 GB unlocated disk space
[13:12] <__unik> yeah, I will try doing that with an USB.
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> __unik: freeing up space with old kernels helps too :)
[13:14] <garotosopa> Hi. I'm trying to use an old EeePC 1000H but the keyboard doesn't work properly. Some keys (capslock, tab, Fn, and some others) aren't recognized on xev or kern.log. Any advice?
[13:14] <__unik> thank you very much ActionParsnip
[13:14] <__unik> I think you better change your nick shorter so that people can thank you easier
[13:15] <lumia900> after i changed the host name yet am unable to ping my host name
[13:15] <lumia900> any idea were its getting missed ?
[13:15] <OerHeks> __unik, type action + tab
[13:15] <OerHeks> :-D
[13:15] <__unik> omg lol I am noob
[13:15] <OerHeks> lumia900, how did you change your hostname?
[13:16] <__unik> thank you OerHeks
[13:16] <hateball> lumia900: make sure both /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts look proper
[13:16] <guntbert> !hostname | lumia900
[13:16] <OerHeks> lumia900, /etc/hostname AND /etc/hosts ?
[13:16] <OerHeks> ah nice factoid
[13:17] <lumia900> OerHeks http://pastebin.com/y7XbpnLb
[13:17] <OerHeks> lumia900, see the message of ubottu
[13:18] <lumia900> which one
[13:18] <lumia900> CML-INDIAFS is host name ..
[13:19] <lumia900> and CML-INDIA.COM is like my WORKGROUP
[13:21] <lumia900> OerHeks ?
[13:21] <igno818> Installed ubuntu server 14.04 and used lubuntu for a gui however, my sound is choppy now. Looks like it's switching from stereo to headphones constantly. Checked gnome and this doesn't happen. Any ideas what it may be?
[13:21] <OerHeks> lumia900, cat /etc/hostname && echo "-------------" && cat /etc/hosts  # to see if the names match
[13:24] <lumia900> OerHeks please have a check with ur pvt
[13:24] <lumia900> Pastebin is currently undergoing some planned system maintenance.
[13:25] <trndr> garotosopa: have you checked if the keys work in bios?
[13:27] <OerHeks> lumia900, try paste.ubuntu.com
[13:28] <pbx> lumia900, or dpaste.com
[13:30] <lumia900> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8614999/
[13:30] <garotosopa> trndr: I can't be sure because the keys that don't work aren't used in the BIOS Setup. How do you suggest me to test?
[13:30] <lumia900> now i have removed the WORKGROUP CML-INDIA and gave a try
[13:30] <lumia900> but still am unable to get the hostname ping :(
[13:32] <OerHeks> lumia900, did you reboot?
[13:32] <lumia900> now i have removed the WORKGROUP CML-INDIA and gave a try
[13:33] <lumia900> yes every time when i run this am rebooting the VM
[13:35] <lumia900> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8615066/
[13:36] <lumia900> yet i dont see my hostname gets ping :(
[13:36] <OerHeks> and /etc/hosts ?
[13:36] <lumia900> i have pasted the either
[13:36] <lumia900> both hosts and hostname
[13:37] <OerHeks> oh yes, should be oke then
[13:37] <dgnorton> is there a way to export the CoreDump from an apport crash report to a core file?
[13:37] <hateball> lumia900: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8615066/ looks all weird
[13:38] <lumia900> hateball wired !??
[13:38] <hateball> lumia900: No. Weird. Wrong.
[13:38] <hateball> lumia900: you've got the first line with two hostnames. One of them not being the same as the second one either
[13:38] <lumia900> please to know where i have messed
[13:39] <lumia900> got the point .. UFF i messed with name
[13:39] <alteregoa> i got a very strange issue when i do mdadm --detail --scan i got garbage
[13:39] <lumia900> let me have change
[13:40] <alteregoa> mdadm: cannot open /dev/md/3: No such file or directory
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: try prefixing with sudo
[13:43] <alteregoa> ActionParsnip, lol
[13:43] <alteregoa> heh im root
[13:43] <alteregoa> it's a bug
[13:43] <lumia900> hateball : http://paste.ubuntu.com/8615164/
[13:44] <lumia900> any idea why am still unable to ping my hostname
[13:44] <hateball> lumia900: the first row still has two hostnames instead of just localhost
[13:44] <sydney> Im having mouse issues. it likes to randomly double or triple click.  Here is a video demonstrating https://cloud.openmailbox.org/public.php?service=files&t=88fdb7754327f1f485e1150ae62eb7fc I only clicked once on everything in the video. What can i do to fix that issue? I have the problem in every DE i use. And i know its not my mouse.
[13:44] <alteregoa> ActionParsnip, show my pastebin
[13:45] <hateball> lumia900: does running "hostname" by itself show the correct name, as entered in /etc/hostname ?
[13:45] <lumia900> 'i have removed the localhost and reboot now
[13:46] <trndr> garotosopa: dosen't it use an AMI bios? I'm quite sure tab should be used in bios.
[13:46] <hateball> lumia900: ... you're supposed to have "localhost". not "localhost CML-whatever" one name on each row.
[13:47] <alteregoa> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/tJDyPazC
[13:47] <lumia900> having local host alone will resolve this ?
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: not used any of that. I use real RAID if any, where you configure the array in hardware
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: not this softwae raid rubbish
[13:48] <alteregoa> a real raid is a software raid
[13:48] <lumia900> cause i been tried in one machine adding the CML-whatever  .. was worked when i pinged it
[13:48] <alteregoa> software raid rubbish? that was 10 year ago
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: if you are using dmraid then that is a kernel side thing
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: try a PCI-X RAID card with 512Mb cache
[13:48] <alteregoa> ok i talk to a other more competent person
[13:49] <alteregoa> and if your controller fails
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: the motherboard controller can fail too...
[13:49] <alteregoa> read some abstracts about hw vs sw raid and failure rates
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> sydney: what is the output of:   cat /etc/issue
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: if you are having to use Ubuntu to confifure the array, its software raid
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: http://linux.die.net/man/8/dmraid
[13:50] <alteregoa> ActionParsnip, yeah but a additional HW makes it more complicated, and less fail tolerant
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> alteregoa: its still software managed
[13:50] <lumia900> hateball : http://paste.ubuntu.com/8615244/
[13:51] <lumia900> looks like same issue ..
[13:51] <lumia900> am still unable to ping my hostname !
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> lumia900: don't you need the line:    <IP_ADDRESS>       CML-INDIAFS      so it can resolve CML-INDIAFS to <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> sydney: its a single line so no need to pastebin :)
[13:52] <sydney> ActionParsnip: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[13:53] <lumia900> ActionParsnip: i have hostname only for <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:53] <lumia900> do i need to remove that so  that i can resolve on its own
[13:54] <garotosopa> trndr: I plugged in an USB keyboard and TAB works  in BIOS, but tab doesn't work on EeePC keyboard. So it's a hardware issue?
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> lumia900: is the system you cannot ping not the localhost?
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> sydney: if you make a fresh ubuntu user, is it the same there?
[13:56] <hateball> lumia900: If you can "ping localhost" but not "ping cml-indiafs", have a look in /etc/resolv.conf so it's not trying to search a weird domain or something
[13:57] <sydney> BRB ;)
[13:57] <lumia900> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8615335/
[13:57] <trndr> garotosopa: Likly, you could try to disconnect the keyboard from the mobo and reconnect it. If you're lucky then it's just the ribbon cable which is disloged slightly.
[13:59] <pikaren> chrome feels much faster than chromium for me
[13:59] <hateball> lumia900: ... you're pinging from windows. that has nothing to do with the settings on your server. come on
[13:59] <lumia900> why not we can get hostname ping from windows machine ?
[14:00] <lumia900> but i was able to do that some times back
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> lumia900: the system isnt sending its hostname to the DHCP server
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> lumia900: what is the output of:  cat /etc/issue
[14:00] <lumia900> then DHCP server is WATCHgaurd HAS SOME PROBLEM ?
[14:01] <lumia900> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> lumia900: sudo gedit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf          change send host-name "<hostname>";      to:   send host-name "cml-indiafs";     save the file and run:    sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[14:03] <sydney> It would seem not.
[14:04] <sydney> Did actionparsnip leave?
[14:04] <zyuiop> hello there
[14:04] <zyuiop> is itpossible to install sendmail in one server and webmin into an other and make webmin control user configuration, is that possible ?
[14:05] <lumia900> apt-get install gedit is getting lot time :(
[14:06] <rom1504> get a faster computer/connection
[14:06] <hateball> you could have just kept using whatever editor you used before...
[14:06] <lumia900> root@CML-INDIAFS:/# gedit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf

[14:07] <lumia900> so i need to create a new file for this
[14:07] <zyuiop> is itpossible to install sendmail in one server and webmin into an other and make webmin control user configuration, is that possible ?

[14:15] <sydney> hey
[14:17] <decci> I need to set up a DNS server that would tell me all the domains registered in the world every day (or minute or hour).
[14:17] <decci> And specially ".com.br" domains newly registered.
[14:17] <decci> So basically I want to track all new registered domains in the internet.
[14:18] <decci> Is it do able
[14:18] <ikonia> decci: how is this an ubuntu issue ?
[14:19] <decci> Ikonia: coz I want to configure it on ubuntu
[14:20] <ikonia> decci: not really an ubuntu issue
[14:20] <funcpla> I don't really think there's anything Ubuntu specific about that problem
[14:21] <ikonia> decci: look at people like netcraft, or the top level dns registrars,
[14:24] <gladioacuto> hi there
[14:25] <sydney> Anyone with an answer to my problem?
[14:25] <nusr> i have a problem. i installed ubuntu wrongly (without a swap). currently i have daily buffer overflow? when i have too many tabs open on mozilla or i have a vm running..just that one last mint if you know what i mean (monty python ref) before the system becomes unresponsive (alt cntrl f1-6 does not do anything)....is this the problem? if i reinstall with a small swap space will that fix the insufficient ram problem and hard reset req?
[14:26] <somsip> sydney: have you confirm it's not a hardware issue?
[14:26] <gladioacuto> what applets do the power button and battery status in unity-2d-panel link to? Is it possible to use them standalone?
[14:27] <somsip> nusr: is it running out of memory? Run top and open your tabs and see what happens.
[14:27] <sydney> somsip: Ive never had an issue with it before this latest install a month ago.
[14:27] <somsip> sydney: hardware wears out. My old mouse was fine for 7 years, then started double clicking for middle click suddenly. It's worth discounting this possibility before you look for a software solution
[14:28] <nusr> somsip: it's not just the tabs...i will have a Calc notebook open, and maybe a pdf..it's just that one last thing i do..sometimes innocuous like one more tab..and not obvious mistake like opening a new vm
[14:28] <somsip> nusr: pick any testable scenario and test it
[14:28] <nusr> i think i reset my randomize_va_space back to 2
[14:29] <sydney> somsip: And i don't have this issue in a different account on the same computer. ;)
[14:29] <nusr> somsip: so is it just ram insufficient? or do i need a swap space because it presently does not have one.  i have top running. what am i looking for?
[14:29] <somsip> sydney: so you're happy you've discounted the possibility of a hardware problem. Ok - now you may need software solutions
[14:30] <somsip> nusr: for 'free' and 'cached mem' to approach 0 when you enter a testable scenario. If you go all of the way, for it to crash in the same way it usually does when there is 0 mem available
[14:32] <somsip> nusr: you could also check the /var/log/syslog for 'OOM' errors, being Out Of Memory, but that might not pick up every case. I'm not sure
[14:33] <nusr> somsip: i'm looking at top now and I see how the system can fail...wine consistently hogs 20% cpu..
[14:35] <nusr> somsip: my caches mem is too high..how can i make it go to zero
[14:35] <somsip> nusr: it's fine. See http://linuxatemyram.com (from memory, no pun intended)
[14:37] <nusr> somsip: ok. that still leaves the question of swap..i don't have one..could that be the problem? shouldn't there be a tiny space available so i can still killall when i need?
[14:37] <somsip> nusr: you are getting distracted by the issue of swap. If you don't crash because you have no swap, you don't necessarily need it. If you want to add it, just add it.
[14:38] <nusr> somsip: just troubleshooting because i don't know what else can be done is limit mem usage so i always have access to terminal and not buffer overflow
[14:39] <somsip> nusr: 'buffer overflow' is probably not the right term here. What do you really mean when you use this phrase?
[14:40] <nusr> somsip: i mean i have used all available memory,  beyond what my system has
[14:41] <upgrader> hello. i am trying to upgrade to new machine that is 64-bit instead of 32-bit. i used "sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade" to install my old packages onto new machine. must i restart to see/use those packages? "dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall" does not show ALL old packages. confused. thanks for help!
[14:41] <somsip> nusr: and usually, the kernel will limit mem usage, and it should shut down apps it needs to when it has to. I could be way wrong here but its how I understand it. http://linux-mm.org/OOM_Killer
[14:42] <Mugen_Deutsche> hi guys i am installing compiz in my ubuntu 14.4 is that safe ?
[14:42] <cable> Mugen_Deutsche does it contain a virus?
[14:42] <cable> :p
[14:43] <somsip> nusr: so when you encounter an OOM condition, the OS will handle that for you, in a way that is possibly ugly for you, but it should not just crash. Which is what you imply, though you haven't clarified this
[14:43] <Mugen_Deutsche> well no. what i mean is if it will not mess up my ubuntu ?
[14:43] <Mugen_Deutsche> i am a newbie by the way
[14:43] <yeticry> hello, world!
[14:44] <somsip> nusr: and that's not a buffer oveflow http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_overflow
[14:44] <nusr> somsip: my system freezes..it is not a BSOD, but i am not able to do anything...the mouse can move milimetres but nothin else happens
[14:44] <hans_> hi im running ubuntu-mate but i cant find my nas drives for sabnzbd
[14:45] <somsip> nusr: and have you got to this point while you are watching top to see what happens? Do you have entries in /var/log/syslog when you reboot, or does it 'get better' if you leave it for a while? Does the HD light flash while this is happening?
[14:46] <nusr> i am watching top..and am going through /var/log/syslog now
[14:48] <upgrader> Hi all, I'm upgrading to 14.04 using "sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade". Now I want to use BackinTime to restore /home folder, but it appears this and many other packages were not installed. Must I restart to see results of "dselect-upgrade"?
[14:51] <gladioacuto> no answers for me?
[14:51] <pikaren> wow
[14:51] <pikaren> ubuntu now has python3 preinstalled?
[14:51] <somsip> pikaren: yes
[14:52] <somsip> pikaren: but 2.7 is the default (link from /usr/bin/python)
[14:52] <pikaren> hmm
[14:53] <nusr> somsip: these are the errors....acpi PNP0A03:00: _OSC failed (AE_NOT_FOUND); disabling ASPM  i8042: Failed to disable AUX port, but continuing anyway...

[14:54] <nusr> somsip: i looked further back in the log to a previous freeze, and the same errors appeared
[14:58] <aguitel> 14.10 is up ?
[14:58] <somsip> nusr: I have no idea if that is likely to be a fatal error or not. Probably one to ask in the virtualbox channel. Though you said it didn't always happen when vbox was running so it could be a false lead. You could even have memory errors
[14:58] <somsip> aguitel: 23rd is due date
[14:58] <somsip> !memtest | nusr
[14:58] <aguitel> thanks
[14:59] <somsip> !testing | nusr
[14:59] <genii> aguitel: It will be in normal release sometime in the afternoon GMT of the 23rd
[15:00] <nusr> somsip: thank you very much for your help and time. i'll check out memtest86+ package and see if it is my mem
[15:01] <somsip> nusr: np.

[15:06] <hitori> how can I enable ssh server? `sudo update-rc.d ssh enable` gives me this: http://sprunge.us/WQBE
[15:07] <mohn305> hello everyone
[15:08] <somsip> hitori: sshd possibly?
[15:08] <somsip> hitori: this is on ubuntu?
[15:09] <hitori> somsip: yes, 14.04
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> hitori: sudo apt-get install openssh-server     will install an SSH service for you
[15:09] <hitori> somsip: `sudo update-rc.d sshd` http://sprunge.us/MHOa
[15:09] <mohn305> my phmyadmin is not working.... i think i messed up with this... n wanna reinstall it how to do tha?
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> hitori: the ssh startup is added to the rc levels in postinst
[15:10] <hitori> ActionParsnip: `openssh-server is already the newest version.`
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> hitori: sudo apt-get --reinstall install openssh-server
[15:11] <upgrader> not only did "sudo dpkg --set-selections < ~/backup/installed_packages.log && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade" fail to install ALL packages to new machine, but now i've lost permissions to mount a USB!!
[15:11] <upgrader> "not authorized to perform operation"
[15:12] <[1]Zealot> i agree
[15:15] <hitori> ActionParsnip: thanks, but I still can't disable it with `sudo update-rc.d ssh disable`
[15:16] <mohn305> my phpmyadmin is not working ... can someone help me?
[15:17] <somsip> mohn305: how is it 'not working'? What did you do to it? Did you install from the repo or from source?
[15:19] <mohn305> somsip,  i just installed in terminal from the ubuntu repo ... sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
[15:20] <somsip> mohn305: and answers to my other questions?
[15:22] <mohn305> somsip, its not working means .. in browser localhost/phpmyadmin shows Not Found
[15:22] <mohn305> The requested URL /phpmyadmin was not found on this server.
[15:22] <mohn305> Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> mohn305: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/phpMyAdmin
[15:22] <somsip> mohn305: and is this happening immediately after install or have you changed anything?
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> mohn305: I  suggest you dont use stuff like that and learn how to manage your OS properly
[15:24] <mohn305> somsip, its just happened after the install
[15:25] <nixfreak> I copied the sources.list and /var/cache/apt to another machine but how do I resync all the packages? Do I have to point to the archive dir in sources.list ?
[15:25] <nixfreak> having a hell of a time trying to figure this out
[15:25] <somsip> mohn305: and have you created the link referred to in the URL ActionParsnip just gave you?
[15:25] <nixfreak> The machine is offline
[15:26] <decci> I have a camera which dumps the images into desktop folder.These are raw files.whenever there is any file under that particular folder it should be dumped to centralized NAS.
[15:26] <decci> he Centralized NAS. The share from the NAS cannot be made as the directory, as the cameras at the upload location cannot understand a share.  Once the files are in the Centralized NAS share, the files has to be pushed automatically to the Download  location.is it possible to automate this
[15:27] <nixfreak> I copied the sources.list and /var/cache/apt to another machine but how do I resync all the packages? Do I have to point to the archive dir in sources.list ?
[15:27] <nixfreak> has anyone done this before ?
[15:27] <ikonia> nixfreak: resync ???
[15:27] <ikonia> nixfreak: that's just a cache file
[15:27] <ikonia> or set of cached files
[15:27] <genii> !apt-offline
[15:28] <genii> Hm
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> decci: I believe so, cheese can be used to take shots from a webcam....
[15:28] <hitori> What package provides these links: `System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/ssh do not exist`?
[15:28] <nixfreak> ok so just having the cache file won't work then even though the *.deb files are in archives?
[15:28] <mohn305> somsip, after running this code to reconfigure..'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow phpmyadmin'
[15:29] <mohn305> somsip,  An error occurred while installing the database:                          │

[15:29] <mohn305>  │ password: YES)
[15:29] <somsip> mohn305: if you need to reconfigure it, that would be the way to go
[15:29] <mkumar> nixcraft: try using apt-get or synaptic
[15:29] <somsip> mohn305: have you setup a root user and set the password?
[15:29] <ikonia> decci: please show me the output of the command "uname -a" please
[15:29] <mohn305> somsip, yess
[15:29] <nixfreak> apt-get looks at sources.list
[15:29] <somsip> mohn305: can you connect on the command line using that user?
[15:29] <ikonia> nixfreak: thats the same on pretty much any machine
[15:30] <uhun> hello everyone, in the middle of work the computer returned to login screen, and when I entered password, loaded the desktop as if restarted (without showing the interrupted session), yet without being shut down, rebooted and reloading desktop
[15:30] <uhun> never happened before
[15:30] <ikonia> sounds like Xorg crashed
[15:30] <mohn305> somsip,  no i cant.. it give me an error ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'monir'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[15:31] <somsip> mohn305: that's beacuse you're using monir as a user and not root (you said you had set root up)
[15:31] <nixfreak> ok so copying the cache file and archives files to another system won't work is that correct
[15:31] <mohn305> somsip,  how to use it as root interminal
[15:31] <somsip> mohn305: mysql -u root -p
[15:32] <hitori> ok. I fixed my ssh service issue by running this command `sudo update-rc.d ssh defaults`
[15:32] <hitori> thanks
[15:32] <nixfreak> !apt-offline
[15:33] <mohn305> somsip,  i think i got lil idea abt it.. the password may be not working
[15:33] <somsip> !offline | nixfreak
[15:33] <somsip> mohn305: that will often cause a failure when trying to connect with that password
[15:33] <mohn305> somsip,  ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
[15:33] <nixfreak> !APTonCD

[15:39] <upgrader> now i can't "enable networking"--so what is "sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade" doing? i can't find packages i want, but i can lose USB mount permission and ability to use internet. advice?

[15:39] <ricvail> ?
[15:40] <georg> hi guys. I have some trouble to install nvidia-prime on ubuntu14.04/64. When I install the nvidia-331 or nvidia-331-update, lighdm doesn't work or at least I cannot see my gui.

[15:42] <ActionParsnip> mohn305: what do you use phpmyadmin for, exactly?
[15:43] <mohn305> ActionParsnip,  for database

[16:01] <tarik> lo
[16:01] <pzn> mkumar, /var/log/dpkg.log does not show which one were replaced/upgraded and which one was a new install

[16:14] <daznis666> Sup guys :)
[16:15] <tester> holaaa
[16:17] <Aetion> hello
[16:18] <Hurri877> Hey i'm trying to build a package with gitbuildpackage and i'm encountering some issues and was wondering where I could ask for help?
[16:22] <iptable> manlin, zyuiop cat emaillist | cut -d"@" -f2 | cut -d"\\" -f1 | while read line; do echo "${line} USELESS";done > result.txt
[16:24] <manlin> iptable: cool... i'm not a big fan of lengthy command :)
[16:24] <Jalk> Hi there
[16:25] <iptable> or cat emaillist |awk -F'@' '{print $2}' |sed -E 's/\\$//g' | while read line; do echo "${line} USELESS";done > result.txt
[16:25] <iptable> that would work better as it only removes the \ at the end... well, it's from memory so might need tweaking :P
[16:25] <daznis666> I would so much like to learn to code, but damn thats hard :“
[16:26] <iptable> manlin, I'm a one-liner-crazed-basher :P
[16:26] <Hawkerz> don't all the cool kids use zsh these days
[16:26] <iptable> hmpf
[16:27] <iptable> zsh is what they teach you in uni. my brother was forced to learn it :/
[16:27] <rom1504> they teach sh here
[16:28] <iptable> zsh in UK
[16:28] <iptable> although that's a bit awkward since bash is the standard on 99% of platforms now. anyways...
[16:28] <daznis666> when i went to uni, they tought me how to "code" in cmd.exe. :D
[16:28] <rom1504> and sh is available on 100% of decent linuxes
[16:29] <rom1504> (ie not android)
[16:29] <iptable> ahh, the batch files
[16:29] <iptable> brings back memories. choice /n ...
[16:29] <iptable> rom1504, sh on most distros is actually just a symlink to bash
[16:29] <daznis666> it would be ok if i could make a bot in cmd.exe.... :D
[16:29] <Hawkerz> I feel like MS appropriated a bunch of really good stuff, and then made some really unnecessary changes just to seem different
[16:30] <Hawkerz> and over the years they haven't improved any of it
[16:30] <Hawkerz> like there is no tab completion by default in windows? wtf
[16:30] <daznis666> no
[16:30] <Pici> !offtopic
[16:30] <daznis666> there is no completion.
[16:31] <ClickClickNext> I just installed Ubuntu for the first time, well, I'm testing it with a usb pen drive.  I cannot access internet now, any advice?
[16:31] <iptable> ClickClickNext, WiFi or cabled?
[16:32] <ClickClickNext> Wifi, i haven't tried connecting the cable yet
[16:32] <daznis666> ClickClickNext, irc does not need internet
