[00:00] <migs_> hi does anyone know how to add an icon to a top pannel in a unity ubuntu environment
[00:00] <p3rror> Fed51, I don't have a service this is a shell script
[00:00] <p3rror> I presume that I have to append it to /etc/rc.local
[00:00] <p3rror> I did this echo "/usr/sbin/harp -d&" >> /etc/rc.local
[00:00] <p3rror> but that does not start at boot at all
[00:01] <user___> does anyone have a nice dark theme for xubuntu?
[00:01] <Mr> http://www.owndrives.com/qe4s78neqbf8/Alien_Covenant_2017_720p_HDCAM_ENG_x264-Mr.BADASS.mkv.html    enjoy
[00:01] <YankDownUnder> user___, https://www.xfce-look.org/browse/ord/latest/
[00:02] <migs_> yeah does anyone know of a good dark theme for ubuntu
[00:02] <bonsairoot> user___, Arc-Dark theme is nice
[00:03] <YankDownUnder> migs_, https://www.xfce-look.org/browse/ord/latest/ => there are heaps of different themes. Merely choose one that fits YOUR mood.
[00:03] <migs_> YankDownUnder, THANKSA
[00:03] <migs_> sorry didnt mean caps
[00:04] <YankDownUnder> migs_, All good. I'm used to being screamed at.
[00:04] <ericfarmer> I am using Mate desktop and the Adapta theme.
[00:05] <user___> i prefer XFCE ,
[00:05] <uxfi> I love you all
[00:06] <migs_> yeah so how do you customize the xfce4 bar
[00:06] <migs_> panel
[00:07] <ericfarmer> Xfc looks nice. I just chose this as it is what worked first when I tried it.
[00:07] <kostkon> migs_, so are you using unity or xfce?
[00:07] <YankDownUnder> migs_, You can customise all the panels/bars...there are desktop settings for that, panel settings AND window manager settings...three different places to adjust the overall decorations...
[00:08] <migs_> kostkon, i am using unity i think
[00:09] <energizer> bonsairoot: thanks. i've never used nextcloud  - is it good?
[00:12] <kostkon> migs_, how were you able to connect to your wifi network?
[00:15] <bonsairoot> energizer, I've only tested it briefly. Plan to migrate my dropbox to nextcloud on my vps though. It's probably overkill if you need only the functionality that you described.
[00:15] <migs_> YankDownUnder, sorry but how do you install these tarballs?
[00:15] <migs_> the thems
[00:15] <migs_> es
[00:16] <energizer> bonsairoot: i see. what would be a simpler way to do file request links?
[00:16] <jadedsky> So I'm looking to use my Linux drive to check a stick I suspect may be infected and / or recover data from it, suggestions/advixe
[00:17] <energizer> jadedsky: raspi with airgap?
[00:17] <jadedsky> ?
[00:18] <energizer> jadedsky: if you have an infected drive, i wouldnt plug it into any computer i intend to use again...but thats just me
[00:18] <YankDownUnder> migs_, You unzip them (you can do it through the terminal with "tar -xvzf blah.tar.gz" - or let Nautilus (or Thunar) do it...and you generally place them in a directory called ~/.themes => if it's not already there, create it. Stick the themes in there...you may have to restart the window manager/desktop, but generally not...just to let you know.
[00:20] <YankDownUnder> jadedsky, The "infection" is most likely NOT a *nix varient - so you can plug in the drive, examine the contents - preferably through the terminal...and if you require cleaning of that drive/partition, you can install "clamav" and utilise that to clean the crap off the "infected" media.
[00:20] <migs_> YankDownUnder, thanks
[00:20] <bonsairoot> energizer, I don't know sorry. You can serve php scripts that do that I think but then you have to implement security measures if it's publicly available.
[00:21] <jadedsky> Thanks
[00:21] <energizer> bonsairoot: alright thanks
[00:22] <jadedsky> I intend to test the drive on a comp I intend to format anyways, as there are other possibilities (why go through more trouble if you don't have to)
[00:23] <jadedsky> I miss the days when I had a dedicated AV comp
[00:24] <jadedsky> Parents think I'm their tech support >_>
[00:25] <uxfi> hi jadedsky
[00:27] <jadedsky> Evening
[00:42] <migs_> YankDownUnder, for the life of me i can't install the themes. where do i go in unity tweak tool
[00:56] <CuChulaind> Is there a way to repair a distro with a live usb?
[00:57] <CuChulaind> It is a mint install, but I have run out of help there. i can boot into the machine to the gui login, enter the password, then get a blank screen
[00:57] <CuChulaind> liveUSB will boot
[00:58] <bazhang> CuChulaind, mint has their own support forums
[00:58] <bazhang> !mintsupport | CuChulaind
[00:59] <CuChulaind> that's where I was
[00:59] <bazhang> CuChulaind, thats where to get help, we dont support MINT here
[01:03] <Guest13233> hi
[01:06] <ericfarmer> I have used Linux Mint before but I would not be sure what is wrong.
[01:06] <CuChulaind> In ubuntu is there a way to fix an installed distro from a live usb?
[01:07] <Ben64> you'd have to ask the support for the distro, in your case, mint
[01:07] <bazhang> CuChulaind, what version of ubuntu are you on
[01:07] <bazhang> !version | CuChulaind
[01:07] <Guest13233> hi evre on
[01:08] <CuChulaind> I am using Mint, however I'm not getting help in the mint room. Just wondering if I were using ubuntu 16.04 can I do it?
[01:08] <bazhang> CuChulaind, we have said repeatedly not to ask here for MINT support
[01:08] <Guest13233> DDos attak
[01:08] <CuChulaind> ok
[01:08] <Ben64> yes, if you had a problem with ubuntu we could probably help you here. since you are using mint and not ubuntu, this isn't the right place. there is a ##linux channel for general linux support
[01:09] <Guest13233> DDos attak
[01:09] <Ben64> Guest13233: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[01:09] <bazhang> Guest13233, care to elaborate
[01:10] <Guest13233> what
[01:10] <bazhang> Guest13233, here is ubuntu support only
[01:10] <Guest13233> i need help
[01:10] <bazhang> Guest13233, this channel is NOT for random postings and chit chat
[01:10] <Rochvellon> Ben64: he wants to DDos this channel ;)
[01:11] <bazhang> Guest13233, you need help with what
[01:13] <Denis> Oi

[01:35] <dfm> does anyone have experience with displaylink dual monitors?

[01:43] <dfm> minimec: http://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=65332
[01:43] <dfm> minimec: this is the problem I am running into
[01:50] <minimec> dfm: Unfortunately I cannot help you. Not only is my setup completely different (I only have a additional Lenovo USB screen), but I would also have to register to the Displaylink forum, and I don't want that...
[01:51] <dfm> minimec: no worries, thanks for checking
[01:51] <minimec> dfm: No problem ;)

[02:22] <Technicus> Hello I am having a problem with dolphin. I am experiencing this bug: < https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-runtime/+bug/1450085 >.  I have tried: `ssh-keygen -f "$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts" -R server` and `ssh -o HostKeyAlgorithms=ssh-rsa user@server`, but the bug persists.  How can I fix this? The bug report is for Ubuntu, however I am on an Arch build.  I also asked the question on #kde and #archlinux.
[02:28] <stranglerfish> nevermind i fixed it

[02:32] <platz> my SSD drive is doing some wierd 20 second pauses, what is going on ? https://gist.github.com/jonschoning/305d0d006b35e3956f17a1de88bbe6da
[02:36] <Bashing-om> platz: AHCI enabled in bios ? Bad connection on the sata cable ? Bad sata cable ? fsck run clean ?
[02:36] <kostkon> platz, first thing they recommend on the forums is to make sure that the drive mode in your bios is set to ahci instead of ide
[02:37] <kostkon> platz, ssd, errors about trim... could be that it's set in ide mode
[02:40] <platz> ah, ok will check bios, thanks
[02:40] <mint> old computer crapped out, got a new system. I want to do a fresh install, how do I migrate the user folder from the old to the new?
[02:40] <cfhowlett> mint copy/paste to a usb.
[02:42] <mint> cfhowlett: What do I need to do on a new install to make sure it can be accessed?
[02:43] <cfhowlett> paste it to your new /home.
[02:43] <mint> Ok. on install simply create the same username password?
[02:43] <uxfi> Can I change the user name  if Im the only user and how would I do that safely?
[02:44] <mint> cfhowlett: would it behoove me this time to put home on a separate partition?
[02:44] <cfhowlett> mint, your machine, your choice.  IMHO, yes.
[02:44] <cfhowlett> uxfi, https://askubuntu.com/questions/659454/how-to-safely-change-username-and-hostname
[02:45] <uxfi> cfhowlett yes I am in that page, when it says "To change username (it is probably best to do this without being logged in):
[02:45] <uxfi> "
[02:45] <uxfi> what do i do if I am logged in?
[02:46] <cfhowlett> uxfi, boot from an ubuntu live USB
[02:46] <cfhowlett> the chroot to the session
[02:46] <uxfi> errr
[02:46] <uxfi> cfhowlett  this is Ubuntu server
[02:46] <uxfi> LTS
[02:46] <cfhowlett> uxfi, ahhh.  I'm not worthy to advise.  ask #ubuntu-server
[02:47] <tgm4883> uxfi: create a tmp user, login as that user, do the rename, login as your regular user, delete tmp user
[02:47] <tgm4883> uxfi: or create new user, copy your stuff over, fix ownership and delete old user
[02:48] <uxfi> ToAruShiroiNeko  I jsut want ot change user name
[02:48] <uxfi> tomaw
[02:48] <uxfi> tgm4883
[02:48] <tgm4883> uxfi: ok, and you have instructions on how to do that
[02:49] <uxfi> tgm4883 but if i do it when I am lgoged in is that a bad risk?
[02:49] <stranglerfish> Bashing-om, it was just a script i'd added to a folder
[02:49] <tgm4883> uxfi: IDK, that's why I said make a tmp user
[02:49] <stranglerfish> when my terminal runs it does source *.sh to that folder
[02:49] <stranglerfish> i removed the script
[02:52] <uxfi> ok tp I made a temp user
[02:52] <uxfi> nwow what?
[02:53] <uxfi> tgm4883 *
[02:53] <uxfi> now what do I do?
[02:53] <uxfi> toIm logged in to bob account tgm4883  and the user name i want to change is the other account so what od i do?
[02:53] <uxfi> if I am logged into bob account
[02:53] <uxfi> tgm4883
[02:58] <Bashing-om> stranglerfish: :) ,, Glad ya fingered it out .
[02:58] <uxfi> tgm4883 usermod: user mitraj is currently used by process 1861
[03:00] <uxfi> what od I do?
[03:00] <uxfi> I cant change my user name
[03:25] <uxfi> ok now i gave the temeproary account sudo access can I delete  the origianl one???
[03:25] <uxfi> ?
[03:39] <mint> cfhowlett: I have finished the install with a separate partition, and the same user name as the old hdd. You are saying that now I simply copy all the files from the old drives user home dir to the new>
[03:40] <cfhowlett> yep.  that will carry over your data and configs.  then logout/login to test
[03:41] <mint> Is that because the username / password is stored in the system to unlock the users files?
[03:44] <uxfi> Question when I delete a account from  Ubuntu (the original admin account) and make a new account will I still get the default ifnormation when I log in (Packages need to be updateD) ?
[03:57] <uxfi> Question when I delete a account from  Ubuntu (the original admin account) and make a new account will I still get the default ifnormation when I log in (Packages need to be updateD) ???
[03:58] <cfhowlett> accounts and repos not connected.
[03:59] <uxfi> ah
[03:59] <uxfi> ok
[03:59] <uxfi> cfhowlett  also how would I transfer my ZNC configuration?
[03:59] <uxfi> from my old to new account
[03:59] <cfhowlett> no idea.  never heard of ZNC
[04:00] <uxfi> areally?
[04:00] <cfhowlett> ayes
[04:00] <uxfi> its an IRC protocol for bouncers/aka clients to connect
[04:00] <uxfi> in a snese its a mini IRCp rocess that keeps you logged in
[04:00] <uxfi> sense
[04:00] <cfhowlett> sounds like copy/paste should do
[04:00] <uxfi> cfhowlett  hm btu what direcotry? also will var/ww be affected?
[04:00] <uxfi> as I run a website too
[04:08] <mint> cfhowlett: I am now copying files from old hdd to new, The old shows the owner as user #1000, the new permission shows as root. I have yet to reboot into the new OS
[04:09] <cfhowlett> mint, permissions is your issue
[04:09] <cfhowlett> !permissions
[04:18] <mint> cfhowlett: Still copying files over, I should then be able to reboot, and once logged in change file ownerships?
[04:20] <cfhowlett> mint, you might need to address file ownerships.  I experienced that when I reformatted.  once I identified the issue, it was a simple CLI fix
[04:22] <cfhowlett> btw: how many users do you have?
[04:24] <mint> 1
[04:25] <Haakon59> Hello!
[04:25] <mint> cfhowlett: I can presumably still boot from my old hdd (it connected via a usb cradle), and then from there change the permissions of the new hdd user home?
[04:26] <cfhowlett> oh, yes, the reboot should be painless.  only issue is ***possibly*** file permissions
[04:26] <cfhowlett> easily correctable
[04:26] <mint> ok, will reboot and be back in a bit I hope
[04:28] <cfhowlett> fingers crossed
[04:30] <tom_> cfhowlett: It's mint, booted but with errors, and no icons in tray
[04:31] <cfhowlett> same ubuntu versions, right?
[04:31] <tom_> yes
[04:32] <cfhowlett> I use xubuntu, not unity so I'm unfamiliar with the behavior.  You might need to manually populate the tray, but ask the channel in general
[04:37] <Haakon59> Hello! My first time using this chat app!
[04:37] <cfhowlett> Haakon59, ubuntu support here.  ask your support question
[04:38] <Haakon59> I was just wanting to try out this chat app.
[04:38] <uxfi> Cna osmeone help me? I jsut made a new user and no hoem direcoty was created and I have root acess
[04:38] <uxfi> what do i do?
[04:39] <blkadder> uxfi How did you make the user?
[04:39] <Haakon59> are there different channels? Topics for chat? etc.
[04:39] <uxfi> blkadder  sudo useradd
[04:39] <uxfi> then i gave the user sudo privldeges
[04:39] <uxfi> because I want to change my hostname
[04:39] <cfhowlett> Haakon59, this is not the chat channel.  perhaps join #ubuntu off-topic
[04:39] <cfhowlett> !ot | Haakon59
[04:39] <cfhowlett> uxfi, wait, what?  no home directory???
[04:40] <uxfi> cfhowlett  at least I dont think zo
[04:40] <uxfi> I cant even make a znc config
[04:40] <uxfi> it gives me a error Please specify an alternate location (or "stdout" for displaying the config) [.znc/configs/znc.conf]:
[04:40] <uxfi> oh wait
[04:41] <Haakon59> Tnanks for the tips. I will try to learn. Thank you.
[04:41] <cfhowlett> Haakon59, happy2help!
[04:41] <uxfi> I see cfhowlett well I see the other user that i thought I deleted and their settings
[04:41] <uxfi> what do I do?
[04:41] <Haakon59> OK, not the chat channel. I will look to find. Thanks
[04:41] <cfhowlett> uxfi, can you login to the new user?
[04:42] <uxfi> yeah
[04:42] <cfhowlett> uxfi, so "no home directory" means ... ?
[04:42] <uxfi> I dont see .. any
[04:42] <uxfi> how do. Icheck/
[04:43] <cfhowlett> uxfi, ls -h
[04:43] <uxfi> actually cfhowlett  home... when I do /home "cd /home"
[04:43] <uxfi> I see the otehr 2 users I thought I deleted
[04:43] <uxfi> what do I do? delete those 2?
[04:43] <cfhowlett> delete nothing!!
[04:44] <blkadder> uxfi Did you use deluser to remove the other 2?
[04:44] <blkadder> Because by default it doesn't remove the home directories if you delete a user.
[04:45] <uxfi> I think so blkadder
[04:45] <blkadder> Out of an abundance of caution. :-)
[04:45] <cfhowlett> until you have this sorted.
[04:45] <uxfi> bc when I log in it tells me udpates are avlaiabele etc
[04:46] <blkadder> Did you use useradd or adduser?
[04:46] <blkadder> They are different.
[04:47] <uxfi> uh
[04:47] <uxfi> user add blkadder  I think
[04:48] <uxfi> Or add user
[04:48] <blkadder> cat /etc/passwd | grep username
[04:48] <uxfi> ok
[04:48] <uxfi> wow
[04:48] <uxfi> no /etcc blkadder
[04:48] <blkadder> Does the directory in the result exist?
[04:48] <uxfi> no
[04:48] <uxfi> oh
[04:48] <uxfi> yes
[04:49] <blkadder> So it created the directory then.
[04:49] <blkadder> Or you are using one that already exists...
[04:49] <uxfi> blkadder  I get this jay:x:1001:1001:Joe Dianiels ,,,:/home/jay:/bin/bash
[04:50] <blkadder> So /home/jay exists correct?
[04:50] <uxfi> ys
[04:51] <blkadder> Good.
[04:51] <uxfi> yes
[04:51] <blkadder> So you have tried logging in as user jay?
[04:51] <uxfi> yeah
[04:51] <uxfi> it works
[04:52] <blkadder> Ok.
[04:52] <uxfi> should I delete the other 2 users?
[04:53] <blkadder> uxfi What other 2 users?
[04:53] <uxfi> er 1 user
[04:53] <uxfi> the old user...
[04:53] <uxfi> the original admin suer I wanted to change my ostname so I made a new user account
[04:54] <uxfi> actually blkadder
[04:54] <uxfi> let me try something
[04:54] <blkadder> k
[04:54] <uxfi> blkadder  can I copy my old user direcotry /home to the new account?
[04:54] <uxfi> and use that direcotry with all my old settings i nit/
[04:55] <blkadder> Possibly, but the specifics matter.
[04:55] <blkadder> Why did you create a new user in order to change the hostname?
[04:55] <blkadder> That doesn't seem to make a lot of sense.
[04:56] <blkadder> But I may be missing something.
[04:56] <uxfi> sorry blkadder  username
[04:56] <uxfi> sorry
[04:56] <uxfi> anyways what should I do?
[04:56] <blkadder> What is it that you are trying to accomplish?
[04:57] <blkadder> I don't have a good understanding of that...
[04:57] <uxfi> blkadder  I want to transfer my old home direcotry to the new account where im the admin...
[04:57] <blkadder> Ok.
[04:57] <uxfi> its all emssed up
[04:57] <uxfi> hoem has 2 things blkadder
[04:58] <uxfi> jay and the old user
[04:58] <uxfi> what should I do?
[04:58] <blkadder> So you need to make sure to check your spelling on these things because you could end up in a bad place if you aren't careful.
[04:59] <uxfi> yeah
[04:59] <blkadder> So I think you mean /home, correct?
[04:59] <uxfi> yes
[04:59] <uxfi> jay has a home
[04:59] <uxfi> since I cd /hoem
[04:59] <blkadder> What is the home directory of the old user?
[05:01] <uxfi> blkadder old stuff irssi configs znc etc but nothing really
[05:01] <uxfi> nothign I need
[05:01] <blkadder> uxfi ls -al /home
[05:02] <uxfi> cfhowlett https://i.imgur.com/U9KSWVm.png
[05:02] <uxfi> see
[05:02] <blkadder> So mitraj is the old account?
[05:02] <uxfi> yessir
[05:03] <blkadder> And /home/mitraj contains all of the files that you want to move?
[05:03] <uxfi> well
[05:03] <uxfi> no
[05:03] <uxfi> I already made copeis of them earlier
[05:03] <uxfi> I dont need anything in home/mitraj
[05:03] <blkadder> Ok
[05:04] <uxfi> so now what cfhowlett ?
[05:05] <uxfi> delete the old user?
[05:05] <uxfi> er the folder
[05:06] <cfhowlett> uxfi, work with blkadder - he seems to have skillz
[05:06] <nrubin29> I've been trying to make a service (which would start at boot) that spawns a screen, but I get an error from `screen`: "Must be connected to a terminal."
[05:06] <uxfi> ok
[05:06] <uxfi> blkadder any ideas/
[05:06] <jnewt> i can't start firefox when connected to my desktop remotely (segmentation fault).  someone suggested i run it with strace.  I did, there is a huge output.  what do i do with this?
[05:06] <uxfi> ?
[05:07] <blkadder> uxfi,  So can you login as user jay and are the files that you need and want in /home/jay?
[05:07] <uxfi> yessir
[05:07] <uxfi> I think so
[05:07] <blkadder> Because earlier you said you needed to transfer files but it sounds like you already did.
[05:07] <uxfi> right
[05:08] <blkadder> So if you are confident all the files have been transferred to the new account/directory then yes you can delete the old user.
[05:08] <uxfi> only thing I need to do blkadder  is regenereate ssh keys
[05:08] <uxfi> anwyays what should I do delete the old folder blkadder ?
[05:08] <nrubin29> Anyone here know how to deal with services and screens?
[05:09] <blkadder> uxfi Do you want to delete the old account as well or just their files?
[05:09] <uxfi> blkadder  just the fiels I already deleted the account
[05:10] <blkadder> uxfi What's the directory name?
[05:10] <uxfi>   /home/mitraj

[05:11] <victorqueiroz> Hi
[05:11] <cfhowlett> uxfi, carefully.  VERY carefully ...
[05:11] <victorqueiroz> Anyway I can have Ubuntu rendering font on Debian?
[05:11] <victorqueiroz> Font rendering on Debian s*cks
[05:11] <uxfi> ok
[05:11] <cfhowlett> victorqueiroz, question for #debian not for #ubuntu
[05:12] <uxfi> with sudo cfhowlett ?
[05:12] <jnewt> here's the strace output: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24640795/  can anyone here make sense of that?
[05:12] <uxfi> er blkadder
[05:12] <uxfi> ?
[05:12] <blkadder> uxfi If you aren't root then yes.
[05:13] <uxfi> ah right I forgot to root up
[05:13] <uxfi> ok done
[05:13] <uxfi> now what?
[05:13] <blkadder> What was "done"?
[05:14] <uxfi> I deleted the folder for the old user
[05:14] <uxfi> but now for example whe n ido znc --makeconf I get this error
[05:14] <uxfi> lease specify an alternate location (or "stdout" for displaying the con
[05:15] <blkadder> Well then you should be done. If you are having znc issues that's a separate topic I imagine...
[05:16] <blkadder> If you just copied things over and the old directory was in your znc config then you would need to adjust to reflect the new directory
[05:17] <blkadder> Because you just deleted the old one.

[06:51] <midlergitian> click cancel a few times, i enter my pw for vpn manually and then login to my user session, go to password and keys, and there it is , my login keychain i can accesss and lock/unlock using the SAME password it wouldnt accept before... any ideas how can i solve this? i tried changing password several times, i did remove keychain and created new one, but it seems to not be working, i still get prompted for some "default-keychain" which is which? :/

[07:00] <midlergitian> its 10am, that is early? :)

[07:02] <midlergitian> cfhowlett, ducasse said that its early morning in europe, i just pointed out that it is not early morning in europe.
[07:03] <ducasse> midlergitian: cet is 9, which is early enough
[07:03] <midlergitian> you said it like it was 5 am and everyone is sleeping
[07:04] <ducasse> midlergitian: is this necessary? i didn't say people were sleeping, i said they weren't active yet.

[07:20] <beilabs> Trying to install libmagickwand-dev on ubuntu 16.04; everything is updated and upgrade.  I'm getting libmagickwand-dev : Depends: libmagickwand-6.q16-dev but it is not going to be installed
[07:21] <beilabs> Not sure where to go to from here with it ^^
[07:24] <ducasse> beilabs: first try just adding libmagickwand-6.q16-dev to the apt install line
[07:24] <beilabs> ducasse, dependency hell... libmagickwand-6.q16-dev : Depends: libmagickcore-6.q16-dev (= 8:<IP_ADDRESS>-7ubuntu5.6) but it is not going to be installed
[07:24] <beilabs> it goes like that all the way up the stack.
[07:25] <ducasse> beilabs: have you added any ppas?
[07:26] <beilabs> I did; i removed them from sources list and regenerated the sources....
[07:26] <beilabs> same problem
[07:26] <beilabs> though this version is standard in 16.04 i would have though
[07:26] <beilabs> thought
[07:27] <ducasse> beilabs: it wouldn't help to just remove the entries if you don't also remove installed packages. there's most likely a conflict between something installed from a ppa and these repo packages
[07:28] <hateball> you'd want to use ppa-purge to remove the packages and not just the entries in sources
[07:29] <hateball> also you can use apt-cache policy <package> to show where it's coming from
[07:29] <Furai> Hey, do I have to be in the input group to be able to use gamepad controllers?
[07:30] <beilabs> hateball, easy way to list all ppa sources?
[07:30] <beilabs> from the terminal
[07:31] <beilabs> btw; both packages are straight from the ubuntu archive directly
[07:32] <ducasse> beilabs: yes, but some dependency isn't, preventing these packages from installing
[07:34] <one808> c
[07:34] <one808> 我操你妈
[07:35] <ducasse> !cn | one808
[07:37] <ducasse> Furai: i think they're just seen much the same way as mice, as far as x11 goes
[07:39] <beilabs> ducasse, hmmm; there is a heap of old kernels on this system, might have been using an older one by default...possible impact?
[07:40] <Furai> ducasse, yeah, that's what I think as well.
[07:40] <ducasse> beilabs: not very likely
[07:42] <beilabs> nope; not the issue.  There are now only 5 repos being pulled; all ubuntu archive ones...still the same issue / dependency problem
[07:42] <ducasse> Furai: have you tried checking if x can see it with 'xinput list'? you could also just read the x logs.
[07:43] <ducasse> beilabs: did you purge any ppa packages?
[07:43] <beilabs> besides removing the source list
[07:43] <beilabs> no.
[07:43] <ducasse> beilabs: i already told you that isn't enough.
[07:43] <beilabs> trying to list all the current ppas.
[07:43] <ducasse> !ppa-purge | beilabs
[07:46] <Furai> ducasse, yeah, I don't see one controller with xinput list.
[07:47] <ducasse> Furai: is the module for it loaded?
[07:49] <Furai> I had xpad blocked long time ago for xboxdrv but the Razer Raiju Controller worked anyway.
[07:49] <Furai> I'm not really sure what's going on here.
[07:49] <Furai> In 16.04 it was working, after upgrade to 17.04 I think it stopped.
[07:50] <ducasse> Furai: try rmmod'ing the module then loading it again, see what is said in dmesg.
[07:51] <Furai> xpad?
[07:51] <Furai> Right now it sits blacklisted.
[07:51] <Furai> Can I add it back on the go?
[07:51] <ducasse> Furai: yes, with insmod or modprobe
[07:52] <Furai> ducasse, thanks, will try it now.
[07:52] <ducasse> Furai: i have no idea which module your controller needs, i was hoping you did :)
[07:52] <Furai> No idea either and dunno how to check.
[07:53] <ducasse> Furai: what kind of gamepad? a generic one?
[07:53] <Furai> Razer Raiju for PS4
[07:54] <ducasse> i would _guess_ that either is seen as a 'real' ps4 controller, or uses a generic driver.
[07:55] <ducasse> Furai: maybe try asking in #gamingonlinux? they probably know tons more about gamepads than i do.
[07:58] <Furai> I blocked xpad because it wasn't giving me a way to define deadzones.
[07:59] <hateball> a DS4 (PS4 controller) should work ootb on a default Ubuntu install, I dont recall the module it uses tho
[07:59] <hateball> even bluetooth should work
[08:00] <Furai> Ok, enabled xpad and xbox gamepads controllers worked out of box with steam/
[08:00] <Furai> But raiju still fails.
[08:00] <Furai> I know it's added to all /dev/input
[08:00] <Furai> And I can cat output there.
[08:00] <hateball> Furai: depending on the game you may need https://github.com/chrippa/ds4drv
[08:01] <Furai> Nah, I don't think I need that.
[08:01] <Furai> That's for bluetooth.
[08:01] <hateball> Furai: oh you're wired?
[08:01] <Furai> Or maybe not, anyway, I'm telling you that it was working. I think Valve just broke something and that's all.
[08:02] <hateball> Furai: are you using ubuntus steam package, or from valve?
[08:02] <Furai> Opened issue with them and I'll see what can be done.
[08:02] <Furai> hateball, wired
[08:02] <Furai> Anyway, I should get to work now. Thanks guys for help.
[08:03] <hateball> Furai: well, have a look here https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/4689#issuecomment-275863398
[08:03] <hateball> Furai: if you use ubuntus package, it should come with udev rules, I am not sure if valves packaging does that
[08:03] <hateball> otherwise you'll need to add the rules manually
[08:04] <Furai> udev rules seem to work fine
[08:04] <Furai> Because the gamepad looks to be named correctly in

[09:20] <freakynl> aplusphilc: unfortunately I'm not blessed with psychic powers. It might help if you describe your issue a bit more
[09:20] <aplusphilc> I managed to mount a drive and it all works fine where I can write and read files from the disk, then I changed mysql data directory to that disk but when I start importing data the disk sudenly become read only
[09:21] <freakynl> aplusphilc: check the output from 'dmesg'
[09:21] <aplusphilc> I managed to mount a drive and it all works fine where I can write and read files from the disk, then I changed mysql data directory to that disk but when I start importing data the disk sudenly become read only
[09:21] <aplusphilc> Tried to format the disk but still behaves the same
[09:21] <freakynl> running databases on usb storage probably isn't too cool performance wise btw
[09:23] <aplusphilc> this is what I see in dmesg
[09:23] <aplusphilc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24642249/
[09:28] <aplusphilc> so we have a server with pretty much small storage space and we requested for additional storage, so how to you configure this
[09:29] <freakynl> aplusphilc: ok, well 1) your disk has issues, see the EXT4-fs error. You might want to check it for badblocks, run 'smartctl -t long /dev/sdb', will take several hours to complete, check progress on / test results with 'smartctl -a /dev/sdb' and 2) apparmor might be in the way, but fix 1 first
[09:31] <freakynl> aplusphilc: smart test aborts if you reboot, powercycle, etc. computer/drive. It will run on the disk itself (as in your prompt is returned immediately, but the test should remain running on the disk internally)
[09:35] <tobeornottobe> if i format my laptop using gparted, will it remove ubuntu itself?
[09:40] <freakynl> tobeornottobe: possibly, depending on where it's installed and what you are going to do
[09:44] <tobeornottobe> freakynl:  here"s a screenshot http://i.imgur.com/TKxn8U2.png ..i'm thinking of formatting the ext4 one

[10:21] <ChanakyaBTC> Hello!
[10:21] <ChanakyaBTC> I have installed Ubuntu a few times before but for the past two days I have had problems with getting it running
[10:23] <fallentree> ChanakyaBTC: what kind of problems?
[10:24] <ChanakyaBTC> I have a specific machine where the live image did not work, and so I tried the netinstaller image which worked and sucessfully installed Ubuntu. However, I had to recently reset that machine with a package on Github called Resetter. It worked but it actually generated a random password to login with. I noted this password incorrectly and lost access. I went ahead to do a clean installation
[10:24] <ChanakyaBTC> and have tried everything I could've but its not working
[10:25] <fallentree> ChanakyaBTC: please define "not working"
[10:26] <ChanakyaBTC> fallentree: Okay so I tried doing a clean installation via the Live image and the NetInstaller image. The Live Image ends up freezing on the Ubuntu logo and the NetInstaller image often comes with either a kernel panic error or another error
[10:27] <fallentree> ChanakyaBTC: sounds like faulty or unsupported hardware. can you pastebin or screenshot the error?
[10:29] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[10:30] <ChanakyaBTC> fallentree: The last one I tried was the live image which ended in Kernel Panic Fatal Exception in Interrupt
[10:33] <fallentree> ChanakyaBTC: yeah, faulty or unsupported hardware, sorry no idea how to debug further.
[10:38] <hateball> ChanakyaBTC: Have you ran a memtest?
[10:38] <hateball> ChanakyaBTC: have you checked your HDD (assuming thats what you have) with smartctl?
[10:39] <hateball> ChanakyaBTC: What type of GPU do you have? Sometimes you need to boot with !nomodeset for the live (and installed) version to show you a picture until you can install restricted drivers
[10:46] <cloudbud> i want to enable a service at boot but im getting chkconfig command not found
[10:48] <fallentree> cloudbud: it's update-rc.d on pre-systemd debian based systems, or `systemctl enable` on 15.04 and newer (systemd)
[10:48] <cloudbud> its 14
[10:49] <fallentree> also note that services are enabled automatically on installation. you should really only do it manually if you're writing a custom service.
[10:49] <cloudbud> fallentree : its ubuntu14
[10:49] <fallentree> cloudbud: so that's pre-systemd then. there's also upstart.
[10:55] <cloudbud> fallentree how to use that
[10:57] <hiru> hello I'm having a error on ubuntu-gnome that occurred on normal ubuntu too http://i.imgur.com/V2KIAbJ.png
[10:57] <hiru> what is it?
[10:57] <hiru> I just installed everything
[10:57] <fallentree> cloudbud: are you developing a custom service? all packages that have runnable services enable them automatically on installation.
[10:58] <cloudbud> i have installed elastic serach using tar.gz
[10:58] <yocs0000> is it possible to upgrade directly from kubuntu to ubuntu?
[10:58] <Chillidown> Hi
[10:59] <BluesKaj> upgrade? heh  tha's funny
[10:59] <yocs0000> (from kubuntu 16.10 to ubuntu 17.04)
[10:59] <Chillidown> Anyone use GNOME?
[11:00] <hiru> I installed ubuntu gnome
[11:00] <fallentree> cloudbud: I'm assuming you mean this, there's ubuntu package available (probably with all services set up), so perhaps use that:  https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/install-elasticsearch.html#install-elasticsearch
[11:01] <yocs0000> BluesKaj: from kubuntu 16.10 to ubuntu 17.04
[11:03] <BluesKaj> yocs0000, do you have separate / and /home partitions ?
[11:05] <yocs0000> BluesKaj: yes
[11:06] <everson> Hi I've installed openssh-server on my one server but I can't ssh into it with its root user despite PermitRootLogin being set to yes (and root user enabled directly on the server itself)
[11:07] <fallentree> everson: and root having a password and having unlocked account? also, if you really must log in as root (not recommended), never use passwords, but keys.
[11:07] <BluesKaj> yocs0000, then just install ubntu to / and set the mountpoint for /home in the manual partitioning phase without fornatting it. You'll have some work to do afterwards however , desktop wise etc
[11:07] <everson> fallentree, yup noted regarding risks - it's just for a local lan box
[11:08] <everson> fallentree, so we've enabled the root account afaik - best way to test this on the server?
[11:08] <everson> fallentree, for example, I can switch to root with sudo su, but not sure if there's something else?
[11:08] <yocs0000> BluesKaj: yes, of course .... I could do that. My question is slightly different: is it possible to upgrade directly from kubuntu 16.10 to ubuntu 17.04?
[11:09] <fallentree> everson: the account must have a password, must be unlocked (passwd -u), PasswordAuthentication must be yes, UsePAM must be yes
[11:09] <fallentree> everson: sudo su uses your non-root credentials. check if root has a password.
[11:11] <everson> fallentree, thanks will check that apprecaite the tips
[11:13] <BluesKaj> yocs0000, not sure, unless you do-release-upgrade first then remove kde/plasma and install whatever DE you want afterwards
[11:15] <latemus> canonical is funded by government, right?
[11:15] <BluesKaj> yocs0000, make sure you update and upgrade your existing packages before upgrading the OS
[11:16] <latemus> can buntu run androit kernel tho?
[11:16] <latemus> i want to update my shell
[11:16] <latemus> to android
[11:17] <latemus> can ubuntu run android kernel
[11:17] <BluesKaj> latemus,  think not
[11:18] <latemus> which question are you answering
[11:18] <latemus> government one/
[11:18] <latemus> ?
[11:18] <BluesKaj> the kast one
[11:18] <BluesKaj> last
[11:19] <latemus> too bad. if ubuntu runs android kernel, i think more people would buy it.
[11:19] <latemus> then no government funding would be as necessary
[11:19] <latemus> for canonical
[11:19] <BluesKaj> nobody buys ubuntu unless it's already installed on the device
[11:19] <ioria> 🎗
[11:20] <latemus> is that really so
[11:20] <fallentree> BluesKaj: I do, I pay on each dowload of new version ISO :)
[11:20] <latemus> then you shold call the ploice for arrest stealing ubuntu people
[11:21] <fallentree> now, shall we dispense with troll feeding and get on with support? :)
[11:21] <latemus> but i didnt troll
[11:21] <BluesKaj> fallentree, show us where you get your isos
[11:22] <fallentree> BluesKaj: https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/contribute?version=16.04.2&architecture=amd64
[11:22] <latemus> by sister wanted to get ubuntu, but all the torrent links were broken
[11:22] <BluesKaj> or pay for them, fallentree
[11:22] <latemus> so i said you have to pay for it and she couldnt
[11:22] <fallentree> BluesKaj: you have a problem with me donating on each ISO download?
[11:22] <latemus> why are torrent links broken from ubuntu server if ubuntu is free
[11:22] <fallentree> s/me//
[11:23] <akik> latemus: can you paste the link so i can test?
[11:23] <everson> fallentree, thanks for the help earlier, it did the trick (basically just had to create a password for root user). Cheers :)
[11:23] <akik> latemus: you don't have to use the torrent download option though
[11:23] <fallentree> everson: you're welcome :)
[11:23] <latemus> i forgot link but i dont have paste. it was for lubuntu torrent
[11:23] <BluesKaj> DalekSec, well, canonical isn't charging you...that's voluntary on yur part
[11:23] <BluesKaj> oops  fallentree^
[11:24] <fallentree> BluesKaj: yup, it is :) I was just addressing the "nobody" part of your earlier statement ;)
[11:24] <latemus> BluesKaj: DalekSec but Canonical sells your data, thats why the cant charge you
[11:24] <BluesKaj> scuse the misteken nick1234 DalekSec
[11:24] <latemus> really you pay in privacies rather than moneycoints
[11:25] <BluesKaj> oh lord.....
[11:25] <latemus> akik: the lubuntu docs beg you to use the torrents instead of direc donwlode
[11:25] <BluesKaj> fallentree, blah blah '....
[11:25] <akik> latemus: it's your choice how you want to download
[11:26] <latemus> no but the doc tells you to save money by not using dinec
[11:26] <akik> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/
[11:26] <latemus> s/dinec/direc
[11:26] <latemus> all that government funding and still canonicla wasnt consitent
[11:26] <latemus> :/
[11:26] <latemus> i rate it inlopy maybe, a C grade on my blog
[11:27] <BluesKaj> latemus, enough
[11:27] <latemus> C- or maybe.
[11:27] <latemus> BluesKaj: ?
[11:27] <BluesKaj> !ot
[11:27] <latemus> how do i remove the commerciol data collection code from ubuntu
[11:28] <latemus> pls advise steps to remove
[11:28] <Fuchs> latemus: drop it
[11:28] <BluesKaj> don't use unity
[11:28] <latemus> ?
[11:29] <doonie> hey, I have expanded my disk from 3 to 10gb, but cant use resize2fs cant do the expanding? https://cl.ly/kcFj/Image%202017-05-24%20at%201.29.00%20PM.png
[11:29] <latemus> Fuchs: bro you run ubuntu?
[11:29] <fallentree> doonie: is that a VM? you expanded the disk image on the host?
[11:29] <Fuchs> latemus: I don't
[11:29] <doonie> yes aws ec2
[11:30] <fallentree> doonie: you then have to expand the partition first, then the filesystem in that partition
[11:30] <doonie> currently running zfs on it
[11:30] <latemus> Fuchs: whats your distro bro
[11:30] <doonie> yes xvdf is 10gb, but can't really get it to expand on the f1
[11:30] <Fuchs> latemus: this here is a support channel, as people told you. Please stop with the off-topic.
[11:31] <doonie> fallentree: check this https://cl.ly/kbPB/Image%202017-05-24%20at%201.30.57%20PM.png
[11:31] <latemus> forgive
[11:32] <fallentree> doonie: no idea what that means. anyway, resize2fs is not for zfs. for zfs you need to "online" the pool with a flag (which I forgot at the moment) that expands it all available size (determined by the container partition)
[11:33] <doonie> yeah I did that too, the autoexpand=on
[11:33] <fallentree> doonie: zpool online -e  (see the manpage for more details)
[11:34] <fallentree> doonie: btw, you using multiple "disks" for that zfs?
[11:34] <doonie> no just this 1
[11:34] <fallentree> isn't zfs a bit of an overkill then?
[11:34] <doonie> using the dedup functionality
[11:35] <fallentree> doonie: really? how big a dataset and how much ram?
[11:35] <doonie> as tiny as possible ;)
[11:35] <fallentree> zfs dedup requires gobs of RAM, recommended minimum 10GB and then 5-10 for each TB of space
[11:35] <doonie> we use it as our staging server, 90% of files will be same, except changes, so no point to have a 50gb when it can dedup all files
[11:36] <fallentree> doonie: I wonder what kind of use case is that with 90% of same files :)
[11:36] <doonie> php development, loads of vendor files
[11:36] <billydaz> Hi all
[11:36] <fallentree> doonie: like multiple sites, each having the same files?
[11:36] <doonie> right now using '6gb' of a 3gb disk
[11:36] <doonie> no just 1 project
[11:37] <doonie> 1 branch for each new feature
[11:37] <billydaz> Please how do i run two different web applications on apache
[11:37] <doonie> anyhow need to fix this as we're offline with some things ;D
[11:37] <golden_ticket> how do I update murmur?
[11:37] <doonie> lets see what I havn't tried
[11:37] <fallentree> doonie: well, good luck with that. dedup is a very hungry and straining feature of zfs
[11:38] <doonie> fallentree: I still think the fdisk is the core of the problem, as it starts there with the expansion
[11:38] <doonie> dedup is ok for use on a staging server and nothing else
[11:38] <fallentree> doonie: if you can use datasets for each branch, rather use that and clone. cloned datasets do just what you described: only use space on changed blocks
[11:38] <fallentree> doonie: fdisk... try parted, I think fdisk doesn't do gpt
[11:39] <doonie> gpart?
[11:39] <fallentree> doonie: I guess that'll do
[11:40] <fallentree> there are so many of them. I mainly use parted for all my mbr and gpt partitioning needs :)
[11:40] <doonie> never used it :/
[11:42] <fallentree> billydaz: that depends on a gazillion of factors, like what applications to begin with.
[11:44] <billydaz> fallentree: I already have openvas running
[11:44] <billydaz> now i need ossec
[11:45] <fallentree> billydaz: those run via apache? which language? php? python?
[11:45] <nazarewk> how do i discover what configuration are packages built with?
[11:47] <billydaz> fallentree: I dont get your question
[11:47] <doonie> fallentree: nice parted -l autofixed it, half way there now ;D
[11:47] <billydaz> the ossec is php
[11:48] <fallentree> billydaz: well you asked how to run multiple applications "on apache", and then proceeded to name two. are those two running "on apache"?
[11:48] <fallentree> doonie: nice! :)
[11:48] <Lynk> Hi
[11:48] <Lynk> Can I install Xen in EFI mode?
[11:49] <billydaz> fallentree: yes both are running on apache
[11:49] <Lynk> I've tried that several times, but it stops at the ramdisk init
[11:49] <fallentree> billydaz: and so my question is, as what? apache is a web server, not application server. it has the ability to pass on requested files to application servers, embedded like mod_php, mod_uwsgi, or via fastcgi, sgci, cgi, to an external application server.
[11:50] <fallentree> billydaz: in which case you "just" need to properly configure each, following their documentation on how to integrate with apache web server.
[11:50] <billydaz> fallentree: o ok
[11:51] <billydaz> I am actually looking to publish the applications using apcahe web service
[11:51] <fallentree> billydaz: sounds like off topic for this channel :)
[11:52] <fallentree> billydaz: if you need specific help on how to use apache on ubuntu, might wanna ask in #ubuntu-server, but for specific application usages like those two, this is not the right place.
[11:52] <billydaz> fallentree: ok thanks
[11:53] <Guest3090> hello
[11:53] <Guest3090> hi
[11:54] <drgx2x> Hy
[11:55] <doonie> hmm still no autogrow gdarniiit
[11:56] <fallentree> doonie: pastebin zpool status
[11:59] <doonie> any preffered pastebin without ads?
[11:59] <fallentree> !paste
[12:00] <doonie> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24643351/
[12:00] <fallentree> doonie: looks like you're using xvdf disk entirely, not individual partitions
[12:00] <doonie> only part that cant grow is the xvfd1, rest seems to be ok, also set the autoexpand from on/off to on again
[12:01] <doonie> correct, whole disk is made by zfs
[12:01] <doonie> so it autocreated those 2 partitions
[12:01] <doonie> as far as I know
[12:01] <fallentree> doonie: so you can't have partitions on it
[12:01] <fallentree> doonie: if you made partitions on the vdev provider you probably nuked the zfs metadta
[12:02] <doonie> yea I didn't make them, everything is still working now
[12:02] <fallentree> doonie: it's broken though, even if it's apparently "working", as zfs has backup superblocks
[12:04] <fallentree> doonie: so nuke those paritions, reinstall the zpool on the xvdf provider, and use zfs datasets to "partition" it
[12:04] <fallentree> zfs is pooled, you don't need traditional (gpt) partitions with it
[12:06] <fallentree> doonie: in fact, now that error makes sense. gpt has backup metadata at the end, so fdisk probably saw corrupt gpt tables because zfs overwrote them. you still "see" different partitions because of the backup gpt metadata at the end, so it's all apparently working, but it isn't
[12:06] <fallentree> really, just use the entire xvdf for the pool, no partitions on it
[12:07] <doonie> ok deleted pool
[12:07] <doonie> sure i dont need to do anything to xvdf now?
[12:07] <doonie> hmm how do i nuke xvdf
[12:07] <fallentree> doonie: you need to erase gpt metadata. I'd advice clean it up with dd
[12:09] <fallentree> doonie: you might need to reboot before you set up zfs, I don't know how to clear up the partition information the kernel already has.
[12:09] <doonie> yeah will do
[12:11] <doonie> ah now I know why I had those partitions
[12:11] <fallentree> keep in mind zfs is a "kitchen sink included" fs + volume manager + raid, all in one. so you create a pool with `zpool`, then you create datasets (analogous to partitions) with `zfs`, they all automount on /<pool-name>/<dataset>/.../..., but I suppose you know all that and how to change mount points if needed.
[12:11] <doonie> when trying to create pool
[12:11] <doonie> ./dev/xvdf does not contain an EFI label but it may contain partition
[12:12] <fallentree> doonie: is that a message you get when you `zpool create web-pool /dev/xvdf` ?
[12:12] <doonie> yeah
[12:13] <doonie> I had this last time, thats why I added the GTP table
[12:13] <fallentree> doonie: you nuked xvdf with dd?
[12:13] <doonie> according to stackoverflow ;D
[12:13] <doonie> yes
[12:13] <doonie> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/xvdf bs=512 count=1
[12:13] <fallentree> no, that nuked only the first 512 bytes. nuke all of it as gpt has backup blocks at the end, and zfs has in the middle, etc... so just wipe it clean.
[12:14] <doonie> ah thats why it was so fast, only 1 count heh
[12:16] <fallentree> without erasing the entire drive you'd have to use zpool labelclear to clear the old pool metadata, then parted or something to erase gpt, then partprobe, and who knows what else, so it's easier to just wipe out it's only 10GB
[12:16] <doonie> also might need to use -f https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ZFS#Does_not_contain_an_EFI_label
[12:18] <fallentree> that wiki is a bit wrong, -f is for `zpool create` not `zfs create`
[12:18] <fallentree> and it's possible you need it, yes, ZFS on Linux has its quirks
[12:18] <doonie> =) you are rirhgt
[12:18] <doonie> right even
[12:19] <doonie> ok same error, but with -f it goes through
[12:20] <doonie> still created the xvdf1 and 9 ;D but not at 10gb at least
[12:20] <fallentree> what created that?
[12:20] <doonie> zpool create
[12:20] <doonie> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24643510/
[12:21] <fallentree> doonie: first time I see this
[12:22] <fallentree> then again I exclusively work with encrypted datasets so all my vdev providers are LUKS containers
[12:22] <mlopez> machinelearning
[12:24] <mabynogy> hello
[12:25] <fallentree> doonie: it's possible ZOL is creating that, like I said it has it's quirks, when you use entire disk with no partitions. In which case I wouldn't know how to resize such a set up.
[12:26] <doonie> yea as it is blocked by the 9 partition
[12:26] <fallentree> doonie: in that case maybe it'd be better if you first created at least one partition and then used the partition for the vdev, not entire disk
[12:26] <doonie> but others have this and succeeded too
[12:26] <fallentree> then at least you'd have control over the partition and its size in the futre
[12:37] <rojo> Hello
[12:38] <rojo> I have the infinite login-loop issue. I can't even access the virtual terminal though.
[12:38] <rojo> Should I boot using the recovery mode kernel?
[12:38] <BluesKaj> rojo,  it's worth a try
[12:39] <rojo> Okay. I think it is because I installed Nvidia drivers.
[12:39] <rojo> Maybe I'll purge them too.
[12:39] <doonie> that's probably it :D
[12:41] <BluesKaj> rojo,  you might try nomodeset in grub in front of or in place of "quiet splash" if you can get to a vt/tty
[12:42] <BluesKaj> damn, he'was too quick for my typing spped
[12:43] <BluesKaj> and spelling ;-)
[12:43] <hatesec> is it possible to teach myself the ccna
[12:53] <anug> tar -xjvf command not found, any help?
[12:56] <midlergitian> anug, try tar xvzf and btw you dont need - with tar anymore i think
[12:57] <anug> thanks
[12:57] <BluesKaj> tar -zxvf yourfile.tar.gz, or,  tar xvfj file.tar.bz2
[12:58] <BluesKaj> depends on the file extn
[12:58] <BluesKaj> anug, ^
[12:58] <anug> okay, will be little hard to remember
[12:59] <midlergitian> so, x for .gz j for .bz2 ?
[12:59] <FinalX> eXtract, Verbosely, the following File
[12:59] <FinalX> no, z for gzip, j for bzip2
[12:59] <midlergitian> ye sry
[12:59] <midlergitian> i see now
[12:59] <FinalX> you don't need the v, either, it just shows what it does
[12:59] <midlergitian> yep v is just for verbose
[13:00] <midlergitian> dont remember when i used bzip2 though
[13:00]  * BluesKaj shrugs
[13:00] <FinalX> I actually use pigz for gzipping a lot
[13:00] <anug> owh, short form
[13:00] <BluesKaj> as long as it works
[13:00] <FinalX> yeah but pigz is multithreaded and sometimes hundreds of times faster :)
[13:01] <midlergitian> you can always check man tar :)
[13:01] <FinalX> http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man1/tar.1.html
[13:01] <BluesKaj> correction trolls ....maybe?
[13:02] <FinalX> correction trolls?
[13:03] <BluesKaj> too much info can confuse the anwer

[13:12] <BluesKaj> toolchains are usually early in the release/testing phase of most OSs, if you can find an image even
[13:13] <golden_ticket> BluesKaj, I got him covered
[13:13] <BluesKaj> golden_ticket,  how?
[13:13] <golden_ticket> invited him to #RosieOdonnellFans

[13:25] <Fleuv> Hello, how do I replace the /etc/hosts file with dnsmasq (in ubuntu)? Im trying to setup a local domain (e.g. wordpress.local) what also manages subdomains (e.g. alpha.wordpress.local, beta.wordpress.local). This is my current /etc/dnsmasq.conf: https://pastebin.com/8S3HpUE7
[13:30] <fallentree> Fleuv: I don't have any experience with dnsmasq, but why replace? Why not use /etc/hosts if it all resolves to <IP_ADDRESS>?
[13:31] <Fleuv> fallentree: because I don't want to add the new wordpress domain everytime.
[13:33] <fallentree> Fleuv: quick googling suggests you need to prefix the domain with a dot, so eg. /.wordpress.local/
[13:33] <fallentree> Fleuv: the address= entry, that is.
[13:34] <Fleuv> fallentree: i tried that, but it doesn't matter if you use . or not.
[13:35] <fallentree> Fleuv: I'm sorry, I don't know then. But if it were me, I'd just use (ISC) Bind. You can set up wildcard RRs with it.
[13:35] <saliak> I’m trying to setup a linux box as a router (it was actually my router for many years, but has been out of use for the last 3).  i updated/upgraded the release, etc. but now it doesn’t seem to be working.  when i try to start isc-dhcp-server, it says “Job Failed to STart”, but I can’t find any log messages.  any ideas?
[13:36] <Akuma> hello, I'm trying to join a samba domain, however I am experiencing an issue after following this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/sssd-ad.html - I'm getting this message when doing the "sudo net ads join -k" command: "Additional pre-authentication required"
[13:36] <Akuma> I've reviewed all the files and everything is according with the guide, my windows and mac computers connect to that AD fine
[13:36] <Akuma> any help would be appreciated
[13:37] <ssureshot> by installing ubuntu-desktop on a server OS, does that essentially make it the same dekstop as installing from desktop image
[13:37] <leftyfb> saliak: tried looking in /var/log/sysog?
[13:37] <leftyfb> ssureshot: pretty close.
[13:38] <ssureshot> great thanks
[13:39] <saliak> leftyfb: you know, it’s weird, all my log files (message, syslog, etc.) are empty..  what would be broken that would cause that?
[13:39] <leftyfb> saliak: out of disk space?
[13:39] <Guest74388> Hi
[13:40] <saliak> leftyfb: nope, 77G left
[13:40] <Snowboarder> Lulz
[13:40] <leftyfb> saliak: filesystem read-only?
[13:40] <leftyfb> Snowboarder: can we help you with something?
[13:40] <saliak> leftyfb: nope, can write
[13:40] <Guest74388> not open firefox
[13:40] <saliak> leftyfb: is there some service that would have been turned off?
[13:40] <saliak> or could have been?
[13:40] <leftyfb> saliak: rsyslogd running?
[13:41] <saliak> leftyfb: yeah
[13:41] <leftyfb> saliak: look in dmesg to see if there are any disk or I/O errors
[13:41] <leftyfb> saliak: type: dmesg
[13:46] <saliak> leftyfb: ah, there it is! isc-dhcp-server pre-start process (17757) terminated with status 1, whatever that means or how to solve :(
[13:46] <leftyfb> saliak: if you're running ubuntu 16.04, try running journalctl -xe
[13:47] <saliak> leftyfb: says no journal files found
[13:47] <leftyfb> saliak: you could try using strace to start and weed through the messages to find the issue
[13:47] <leftyfb> but I'd be more concerned with why your logs are all empt
[13:48] <leftyfb> y
[13:48] <leftyfb> try restarting rsyslogd
[13:48] <saliak> yeah, i agree.  that’s really bizzare
[13:48] <leftyfb> saliak: have you not rebooted in a while?
[13:48] <saliak> no.  i think i’m going to do that now
[13:48] <saliak> give it a fresh start

[14:10] <UNIcodeX_> I have a hung process. kill -9 is not working on it... I'd rather not reboot the machine. advice?
[14:12] <BluesKaj> UNIcodeX_, does your DE incude a system monitor app that you can use to find the process and kill or terminate it
[14:12] <UNIcodeX_> headless. ssh. htop won't kill it either.
[14:13] <mekhami> i just upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04 on my desktop and now i'm stuck in a login loop. this has happened to me before and i don't remember how i fixed it
[14:20] <thejman> How the heck do I install spotify on linux?
[14:21] <thejman> WHen I follow their instructions I get "Failed to fetch http://repository.spotify.com/dists/stable/InRelease  Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NOSPLIT' (does the network require authentication?)"
[14:21] <thejman> Followed by "Unable to locate package spotify-client"
[14:21] <thejman> Haha I figured it out nevermind
[14:22] <thejman> Its blocked by my network admin
[14:22] <hiru> I have a issue with ubuntu and the latest security update. after the install there is no grub on boot and I can't access the BIOS, again. I tried grub-repair and everything is successfull but at the end it tells me that boot ant boot/efi partitions are not at the beginning of the drive so bios might ignore them. someone told me to ignore those alerts because my drives are small enough I should not worry about
[14:22] <hiru> this issue. anyway I lost my bios splash screen again. I solved this by unplugging everything (ram, vga and power cable) and resetting cmos yesterday. should I do the same or report this problem as a bug?
[14:25] <sorvin> Hey. Anyone tried deploying 16.04 workstations with cobbler?
[14:25] <Jack_Sparrow__> hiru, I would not call it a bug until I looked at your sources list
[14:25] <leftyfb> hiru: I'm not that great at debugging EFI issues, but I can tell you that ubuntu updates will have absolutely zero affect on your BIOS splash screen or your ability to get into the BIOS config. That's not how computers work.
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow__> leftyfb, agreed
[14:26] <leftyfb> sorvin: are you conducting a survey?
[14:26] <sorvin> leftyfb: no
[14:27] <hiru> :°D aah ok. maybe I should flash the bios and see what happens
[14:27] <freakyy> hi all. i have windows 10 latest update. and since some update of windows, my windows keeps overriding mbr on /dev/sda from grub to windows bootloader. how can i prevent that?
[14:27] <Jack_Sparrow__> hiru, NO
[14:28] <hiru> o7 okok
[14:28] <leftyfb> freakyy: that is a Windows question
[14:28] <hiru> just an idea. someone told me it is probably a firmware issue
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow__> hiru, Open a Terminal:   inxi -Fxxrzc0 | pastebinit     Provide link  -  So We can see what you are working with
[14:29] <sorvin> freakyy, no real way of preventing that. just install linux after windows. unless you have some weird bios setting to lock the mbr (in which case windows will probably yell anyways)
[14:29] <leftyfb> Jack_Sparrow__: inxi isn't installed by default
[14:29] <freakyy> sorvin: no, windows will override the mbr
[14:29] <freakyy> when i boto it
[14:29] <freakyy> i know how to get into grub
[14:30] <sorvin> freakyy, oh, every time?
[14:30] <freakyy> yes
[14:30] <sorvin> freakyy, odd. sorry haven't stumbled onto this
[14:30] <hiru> here's the paste: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24644430/
[14:31] <Jack_Sparrow__> leftyfb, I need to make one od these for us..  read, https://git.io/v1qUo  & share the link output here.
[14:32] <Zigg318> yo
[14:33] <freakyy> ook thanks
[14:33] <leftyfb> Jack_Sparrow__: got a couple typo's and should tell how to install inxi
[14:33] <Jack_Sparrow__> hiru, This line scares me..  Active apt sources in file: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yannubuntu-ubuntu-boot-repair-zesty.list
[14:34] <Jack_Sparrow__> leftyfb, agreed, will work on that later today
[14:34] <hiru> what do you mean?
[14:34] <hiru> I mean, why does it scare you?
[14:34] <Jack_Sparrow__> hiru, What kind of problems did you have to add that repo
[14:35] <hiru> that's probably a rep for grub right? I only pasted what I found on the ubuntu wiki for repo
[14:35] <hiru> *grub
[14:38] <Jack_Sparrow__> adding ppas you find in a wiki and running scripts you dont understuand will lead to problem after problemwill
[14:39] <hiru> I just trusted the wiki. I'm not that good with linux
[14:40] <hiru> I'll login from the phone as hiru2 and try resettings CMOS like yesterday
[14:40] <hiru> that fixed the issue
[14:40] <hiru> somehow
[14:40] <lieber> hello
[14:41] <hiru> brb
[14:41] <lieber> --
[14:41] <Jack_Sparrow__> Hello and welcome to Ubuntu
[15:00] <Jack_Sparrow__> !find c++
[15:07] <hiru2> ok I'm back in the bios
[15:07] <hiru2> what should I have as first boot option?
[15:07] <hiru2> ubuntu, windows boot manager or ubuntu (again..?)
[15:10] <hiru2> Jack_Sparrow__:
[15:13] <paqcito> I did one of the dumbest thing I can in my life.
[15:14] <paqcito> I was reading on internet how to speed up rsync, and found this command "rsync -aHAXxv --numeric-ids --delete --progress -e  user@<source>:<source_dir> <dest_dir>"
[15:14] <paqcito> Which I typed and it show A LOT OF FILES, my FILES from my local machine and it said,
[15:14] <paqcito> sent 823,028 bytes  received 2,197,318 bytes  2,013,564.00 bytes/sec total size is 84,545,699,690  speedup is 27,992.06
[15:14] <paqcito> What did I f... did?
[15:14] <paqcito> What did I f.. do?*
[15:14] <paqcito> I'm nervous leftyfb
[15:15] <paqcito> nacc: I thought I understood what I was doing, but I realized I didn't.
[15:16] <leftyfb> paqcito: depending on what directory you pointed it to, it mirrored the remote directly, including deleting any local files that weren't on the remote directory you specified
[15:17] <paqcito> leftyfb: Whatttttttttt?
[15:17] <leftyfb> paqcito: good thing you have backups
[15:17] <dion> hy
[15:18] <dion> on
[15:18] <dion> how are you
[15:18] <paqcito> leftyfb: It seems like I've still got my files on my local machine
[15:18] <leftyfb> dion: can we help you with something?
[15:19] <paqcito> I copied from here https://gist.github.com/KartikTalwar/4393116
[15:20] <paqcito> rsync -aHAXxv --numeric-ids --delete --progress -e  nameserver@ipserver:/home/user/archiveiwanttotransfer.sql /home/mylocaluser leftyfb
[15:20] <dion> Is there any indonesian language
[15:20] <fallentree> paqcito: well, nothing beats firts hand education on how to not use random commands without understanding what they do. :)  Meanwhile, that affected only files under <destdir>/ . Hope that wasn't / and you didn't sudo :)
[15:20] <paqcito> leftyfb: Actually I typed exactly like that one I sent here
[15:21] <leftyfb> paqcito: that will definitely delete anything in /hom/mylocaluser that isn't called archiveiwanttotransfer.sql
[15:21] <dion> ping
[15:21] <dion> ping
[15:21] <leftyfb> dion: /join #ubuntu-indonedia
[15:22] <fallentree> indonedia?
[15:22] <leftyfb> ugh
[15:22] <leftyfb> sorry
[15:22] <leftyfb> dion: /join #ubuntu-indonesia
[15:22] <leftyfb> fallentree: firts? :)
[15:23] <fallentree> well, I paqcito won't go into #firts and find no-one there :)
[15:23] <paqcito> fallentree: You're so right!
[15:23] <leftyfb> paqcito: good thing you have backups
[15:23] <paqcito> leftyfb: Yes. Actually, I haven't backup this because it's my personal computer which I don't use that much.
[15:24] <dion> Ask for the channel
[15:24] <leftyfb> paqcito: ah, good. Then you didn't lose anything important then
[15:24] <paqcito> But since I started work with Ubuntu here, I definetely gotta do it!
[15:24] <leftyfb> dion: /join #ubuntu-indonesia
[15:25] <paqcito> leftyfb: My question is, I still see all my files like it deleted nothing from my computer. Why?
[15:25] <dion> thanks all
[15:25] <leftyfb> paqcito: it should have deleted some, if you killed it. If you didn't kill it before it finished, then it should have deleted everything ... think
[15:25] <leftyfb> paqcito: there's always testing
[15:25] <leftyfb> paqcito: you should test it
[15:27] <dumb> hallo guys i have a question
[15:28] <akik> dumb: hi, we have answers. fire away
[15:28] <leftyfb> :/
[15:28] <akik> oh wow that was unexpected
[15:28] <leftyfb> dumb: the answer is /part
[15:29] <leftyfb> oh, he figured it out without my help
[15:30] <paqcito> leftyfb: I didnt have time to kill it. It was faster than anything.
[15:30] <paqcito> Maybe because I didnt type sudo?
[15:30] <leftyfb> nope, should have deleted everything. again, test it
[15:31] <hiru> hello, how can hide partitions from 'on this computer' window?
[15:31] <hiru> http://i.imgur.com/kK7eZOj.png
[15:32] <leftyfb> hiru: hide? what for?
[15:32] <hiru> as you can see the /boot/efi partition isn't there. why is /boot/ there?
[15:32] <leftyfb> hiru: what purpose would hiding anything there serve?
[15:33] <hiru> do I need a reason?
[15:33] <leftyfb> yes
[15:37] <nacc> leftyfb: well played
[15:37] <nacc> leftyfb: sounds like they didn't want to mount /boot :)
[15:39] <paqcito> leftyfb: I think anything was deleted, because this       --delete      This tells rsync to delete extraneous files from the receiving side (ones that aren’t on the sending side), but only for the directories that are being synchronized. You must have asked rsync to send the whole directory (e.g. "dir" or "dir/") without using a wildcard for the directory’s contents (e.g. "dir/*") since the wildcard is expanded by the shell and
[15:39] <paqcito> What do you think about?
[15:40] <leftyfb> paqcito: maybe because you specified a file
[15:40] <leftyfb> paqcito: TEST IT
[15:40] <paqcito> leftyfb: Dont get mad at me, I dont know how to test it. /shrug
[15:41] <paqcito> I'd like to know or learn how to do it
[15:41] <leftyfb> paqcito: create a local directory, put some files in it ... run the same command on the full path of that directory you just created
[15:41] <paqcito> leftyfb: gonna do it
[15:42] <leftyfb> paqcito: also, man rsync. There's a switch to tell it to only SHOW what it's going to do, instead of do it
[15:42] <leftyfb> like a trial run
[15:47] <paqcito> leftyfb: i'm reading that. thanks
[15:47] <paqcito> also is there a way to filter info on a man page? like cat man rsync | grep debug
[15:47] <paqcito> ?
[15:48] <eam> paqcito: man rsync|grep debug
[15:48] <paqcito> eam: thanks
[15:49] <leftyfb> paqcito: better off opening the man page and searching by hitting / and the search query and enter.
[15:49] <leftyfb> paqcito: if there's multiple results it finds, you can keep hitting / and ENTER to keep searching
[15:50] <billydaz> Hi
[15:50] <billydaz> I recently installed virtualbox on ubuntu server
[15:50] <billydaz> how can I assess the virtual box console
[15:50] <cristian_c> hello
[15:50] <cristian_c> after I've placed cpu, I've installed 17.04. Unfortunaterly, lm-sensors returns incorrect values for a10-7800
[15:50] <billydaz> as i am in a remote location
[15:51] <cristian_c> I've loaded the it87 module, but I don't know what are exactly cpu and gpu temperatures
[15:51] <leftyfb> billydaz: what do you mean by "virtualbox console"?
[15:51] <atralheaven> Hi, Can Ubuntu be installed on a logical (not a primary) partition?
[15:51] <billydaz> The virtualbox gui
[15:51] <leftyfb> atralheaven: yes
[15:51] <saliak> leftyfb: ok, took forever to check filesystem, but finally back up.  not sure what changed but useful error messages started showing up.  fixed some bugs in the dhcpd.conf and seems to work now!
[15:52] <atralheaven> leftyfb: thanks
[15:52] <billydaz> I dont want to work with headless
[15:52] <billydaz> leftyfb:
[15:52] <nacc> !enter | billydaz
[15:52] <leftyfb> billydaz: so you want to access a GUI application on your Ubuntu desktop remotely? Something like VNC or teamviewer maybe?
[15:52] <billydaz> ubottu: sorry
[15:52] <cristian_c> for example, using 'sensors' command I can read:
[15:53] <cristian_c> k10temp-pci-00c3
[15:53] <cristian_c> Adapter: PCI adapter
[15:53] <cristian_c> temp1:        +12.2°C  (high = +70.0°C)
[15:53] <billydaz> leftyfb: yes. except it is ubuntu server
[15:53] <leftyfb> billydaz: not if it's running a desktop environment ;)
[15:53] <leftyfb> not in my book anyway
[15:53] <akik> billydaz: you could install x2go on the server to access the remote desktop securely (it goes over ssh)
[15:53] <cristian_c> and: radeon-pci-0008
[15:53] <cristian_c> Adapter: PCI adapter
[15:53] <cristian_c> temp1:        +12.0°C  (crit = +120.0°C, hyst = +90.0°C)
[15:54] <leftyfb> billydaz: why not use libvirt or lxc for virtualization as opposed to an outdated and stagnant project like virtualbox?
[15:54] <billydaz> akik: Thanks
[15:54] <leftyfb> cristian_c: please use pastebin
[15:54] <billydaz> leftyfb: I have not worked on them before but i could look at them and compare
[15:55] <leftyfb> billydaz: you are better off if the goal is to run this efficiently on a "server"
[15:56] <leftyfb> billydaz: Virtualbox requires a desktop environment. A desktop environment is a waste of resources on a server and some consider a security risk
[15:56] <arunpyasi_> HI guys, I have an issue, why does my wifi gets disconnected time and again
[15:56] <leftyfb> billydaz: also, AFAIK, virtualbox isn't really meant to be an enterprise application
[15:56] <cristian_c> but if I look at it87 super i/o section of the output I can read values as 41 °C for temp1 and 25 °C for temp3 about it8728-isa-0228 isa adapter
[15:57] <compdoc> billydaz, which desktop did you install?
[15:57] <rbansal1> Hi All,
[15:58] <billydaz> compdoc: when you say desktop, I am guessing you mean environment. I am on ubuntu server all just terminal
[15:58] <rbansal1> Is there a reason a Windows machine ignrore router advertisement packets.
[15:58] <nacc> rbansal1: isn't that a question for windows?
[15:58] <cristian_c> are there either incorrect values or do I spot not related values in the output? Any ideas?
[15:59] <compdoc> billydaz, x2go and vnc and the others are for desktops. use ssh for terminal
[15:59] <rbansal1> Not its  a question on radvd behavior for Windows.
[15:59] <cristian_c> leftyfb: what vakues have I to pastebin, exactly?
[15:59] <leftyfb> rbansal1: that is a #windows problem
[15:59] <akik> billydaz: if your remote server is already a vm, virtualbox would not be a solution for you
[15:59] <leftyfb> cristian_c: outputs of commands beyond 1 or 2 lines
[15:59] <nacc> rbansal1: me: "is it a question for windows?", you: "no, it's a question ... for windows"
[16:00] <cristian_c> leftyfb: ok, but what commands exactly?
[16:00] <leftyfb> cristian_c: any
[16:00] <cristian_c> O.o
[16:00] <leftyfb> !pastebin cristian_c
[16:00] <leftyfb> !paste cristian_c
[16:00] <leftyfb> bah
[16:00] <nacc> !paste | cristian_c
[16:00] <akik> x2go is used to access a remote desktop
[16:00] <nacc> cristian_c: the point was to not paste them into the channel.
[16:00]  * cristian_c asks himself what commands leftyfb has asked to himself
[16:01] <billydaz> akik: my remote server is a physical ubuntu server
[16:01] <leftyfb> billydaz: you should be using something like kvm/libvirt or containers(if the guest os is a supported linux distro)
[16:01] <cristian_c> nacc: anyway, I don't know what command outputs are needed
[16:04] <cristian_c> Has anyone any ideas about the issue?
[16:12] <Dresk> Ugh, I just can't do it anymore, upgrading, so much stuff breaks, the old rule of never upgrade an OS, fresh install, I must return to this.  Enough ranting - I just upgraded to 17.04 and 2 problems : 1) Every time my display powers off for energy saving, when it comes back on PulseAudio re-enables HDMI audio and messes everything up.  2) My mouse accel / speed sliders have no effect.
[16:15] <leftyfb> Dresk: thanks for informing us of your decision?
[16:15] <Dresk> leftyfb: I do have questions on the end though!
[16:15] <Wizard_> Hey everybody. I've got some kind of funny problem. I have 2 laptops running Ubuntu 16.04, lets call them a and b. Laptop a have had Ubuntu for some time now but it's a old machine, laptop b is a newer machine and i JUST installed ubuntu on it, like 5min ago. I then have a "Renkforce rf-docking-07" device (Its a HDD docking station for USB).  Now for the problem, I have a HDD used mostly in IOS machines so i guess its formatted with H
[16:15] <leftyfb> Dresk: not a single question detected in your post
[16:15] <nacc> Dresk: probably the 1) is rediscovery of your display ... i'm sure there is a way to configure pulse to consistently order audio sinks
[16:16] <Dresk> leftyfb: I do have 2 questions on the tail end
[16:16] <nacc> Dresk: for 2), it's possible you have some overrides in ~/ that maybe you did a while ago in a prior release? packages don't know about those
[16:16] <paqcito> leftyfb: thanks, also -n didnt work, but I tested in the other way.
[16:16] <Wizard_> On laptop a it runs without any problems and show me the files right when pluged, but laptop b wont see anything
[16:16] <nacc> Dresk: you could try creating a new dummy userand test if they expereince the same thing
[16:17] <Wizard_> I've tried lsblk but it only shows me my intern drive
[16:19] <paqcito> leftyfb: I did the test and it didn't delete anything, but this time since there are less files, it let me see what it did, it said at the beggining, "sending incremental file list", showed the files into the /testfolder and the same message at the end "sent 2,065 bytes  received 5,509 bytes  15,148.00 bytes/sec total size is 2,294,886,515  speedup is 302,995.31"
[16:19] <paqcito> We already know it didnt delete anything, but still curious about what it exactly did.
[16:20] <Sanshu> Hello everyone
[16:20] <Sanshu> M using ubuntu 16.04 Lts and my wifi shows connected but its doesn't work. I have to turn off the wireless network option and then again connect to network and wifi starts working. This is occuring very frequently
[16:20] <Sanshu> Anyone else facing this or knows a workaround
[16:21] <Sanshu> M a new ubuntu user any help is appreciated
[16:23] <wafflejock> Sanshu, you can pop up a terminal and we can get some more info that might help find an answer but don't know off hand
[16:25] <Sanshu> (wafflejock) can u tell me what commands i need to enter to get info
[16:25] <wafflejock> Sanshu, write up here does a good job explaining journalctl the tool for looking at the system logs https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-journalctl-to-view-and-manipulate-systemd-logs  aside from that can check, lspci -k, to see a listing of your pci devices including kernel modules loaded
[16:26] <wafflejock> Sanshu, with lspci -k, would be good to find the ethernet/wifi adapter and see what kernel module is loaded, with journalctl or journalctl --dmesg might be better you would possibly see some errors in the logs around when the wifi drops that may be related
[16:27] <wafflejock> basically knowing 1 wifi chipset, 2 kernel module loaded, and 3 Ubuntu version can usually google to find related problems/fixes too
[16:27] <Sanshu> Ok thanks for giving a start.. Currently m connected so i assume the logs wont produce anything
[16:28] <wafflejock> Sanshu, yeah good to take a look beforehand anyhow too just to get a feel for what is "normally" in there
[16:28] <wafflejock> but probably won't see the problem then
[16:28] <arunpyasi_> has the VLC security fix been released to xenial ?
[16:40] <arunpyasi_> has the VLC security fix been released to xenial
[16:45] <wafflejock> arunpyasi_, which issue?
[16:46] <wafflejock> arunpyasi_, http://www.videolan.org/security/sa1601.html is hte latest I can find looks like a problem in the quicktime decoder allows a buffer overflow and possible arbitrary code execution https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2016/CVE-2016-5108.html appears to be in "triage" you need to be more specific if that's not what you're looking for though
[16:47] <arunpyasi_> wafflejock, the subtitle one
[16:50] <goid> does ubuntu have power saving modes like windows
[16:51] <wafflejock> arunpyasi_, if it's not a security issue then typically small version bumps or minor fix releases don't get incorporated into the LTS repos from what I've seen usually if you need the latest you have to get it yourself if you are on LTS and then need to deal with any issues that come from that (ideally I get things from the source and build myself if need be, but is a pain when you need to upgrade)
[16:51] <makr> goid something like this maybe? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PowerManagement/ReducedPower
[16:51] <wafflejock> goid, yeah depends on your DE how you would access that in Gnome 3 I have a cpu indicator in my panel
[16:54] <goid> wafflejock: DE?
[16:54] <makr> Following problem: My server is 2x3TB in Raid0, want to change this to Raid1 without losing anything/setting everything up again, im using about 200gig right now. My idea would be to make a system-image from the current sys and then format, change to raid1 and restore from the image. is that correct or what would be the easiest?
[16:54] <wafflejock> goid, sorry desktop environment, just the "shell" you're presented with, if you installed plain Ubuntu your DE is called Unity gives you the panel of application launcher stuff along the edge of the screen
[16:56] <atralheaven> I can't create logical partition on ubuntu, I already have two partitions which are for windows, I want one big partition for my data, and 3 partitions for linux (swap, home, root) so I have to use extended partitions, but I get error when I want to create it
[16:56] <wafflejock> goid, Ubuntu has relatively recently decided to drop Unity in favor of Gnome 3, you can install multiple desktop environments and switch between them but typical to just find one you like and stick with it (Ubuntu has "flavors" or other releases with particular default DE, like Gnome, KDE, XFCE, LXQt, and other desktop environments)
[16:56] <goid> wafflejock: yeah, i have left sidebar
[16:57] <goid> I don't know about multiple deskptops, just want a UI to enable power saving for longer battery life
[16:58] <goid> I just to do basic browsing
[16:59] <Bashing-om> atralheaven: From a live environment pastebin ' sudo parted -l ' / So we see what we are working with .
[17:00] <wafflejock> goid yeah gotcha, not sure in Unity about a UI for that though
[17:00] <goid> g3 has it?
[17:00] <wafflejock> goid, yeah I have some extension for it on gnome 3 can check what it is here
[17:01] <ducasse> goid: the packages you want are probably indicator-cpufreq and indicator-power, but i've no idea how you actually enable them in the gui.
[17:01] <goid> ducasse: you mean under unity
[17:02] <ducasse> goid: yes, i assume that's what you use?
[17:02] <goid> im sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop
[17:02] <goid> im sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop
[17:02] <goid> yes, i'll dl g3
[17:04] <ducasse> goid: you're switching desktop to get power management control panel? sounds like a overreaction...
[17:04] <atralheaven> Bashing-om: https://hastebin.com/atehaweqam.sql
[17:04] <goid> ducasse: I'm new to linux, have no preference
[17:04] <goid> still getting used to this one
[17:05] <wafflejock> ducasse, Unity is going away anyhow
[17:05] <goid> ducasse: do you know of another way
[17:05] <wafflejock> er maybe not "going away" but not going to be the default

[17:06] <st_iron> hi
[17:06] <airking> Does anyone know how to get the java 8 SDK on ubuntu?  I can't seem to find the right package
[17:06] <st_iron> airking: there is a ppa for this
[17:07] <airking> st_iron: Do you know where I can find it?
[17:07] <st_iron> airking: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-java-with-apt-get-on-ubuntu-16-04
[17:07] <ducasse> wafflejock: sure, but it will still be supported for years to come. i don't really care, though :)
[17:10] <wafflejock> arunpyasi_,  interesting hadn't heard about this yet but seeing as how it seems to have just been published about I'd guess if you need the patch immediately you'll need to get it manually can search CVE numbers here https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/
[17:11] <Bashing-om> atralheaven: I do not see the faulr here with parted .. as this is "msdis" partitioning let's look at it with a different tool. show ' sudo fdisk -lu ' and ' mount ' .
[17:11] <Bashing-om> fault*
[17:14] <skinux> I need help with some Steam launch errors https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/29514d28dfc18adac7acf19a989fe67b
[17:16] <akik> atralheaven: your partitions 5, 6 and 7 already occupy the total size of your extended partition 4
[17:20] <goid> why does my battery life keep changing up and dpown
[17:24] <Random832> because measuring battery capacity is not an exact science
[17:24] <Random832> and also your actual/predicted power usage rate is probably not a constant.
[17:25] <goid> Random832: it doesn't happen on my android. is google cheating
[17:25] <Random832> my phone doesn't actually give a "battery life" (in the sense of how much time is left, vs what percentage)
[17:25] <Random832> i assumed you were talking about a time readout like "4 hours left" or whatever, rather than the percentage
[17:26] <goid> yeas time left
[17:26] <goid> and %
[17:26] <goid> it shows both
[17:26] <goid> the actual % doesn't change
[17:26] <goid> only time left
[17:26] <goid> was 3h now 4:30
[17:26] <vpackets_> Hey Guys ! Got an issue installing supervisor/gunicorn package on ubuntu 16.04 . here is my output .. do anyone got an idea how could I fix it please ? https://pastebin.com/0FBC7GXz
[17:26] <Random832> battery life is also a lot longer on a phone than a laptop, so they can average out a longer usage period to get a reasonable answer
[17:27] <goid> that makes sense
[17:27] <Random832> like, if you watch a video or play a game on your phone, it's not going to assume you're going to keep doing that until your battery dies unless it's already pretty low, whereas spending an hour doing that on a PC can make a huge dent in battery life.
[17:28] <goid> true, but my time left changes without my usage changing
[17:28] <Random832> so the time can go up if you *stop* doing something intensive on a PC
[17:28] <goid> so maybe something's broken
[17:28] <goid> is there a way to know how long it averages
[17:28] <Random832> it's also possible your PC's power manage circuitry just isn't as good as for a phone
[17:29] <goid> thinkpad x240
[17:30] <Bashing-om> vpackets_: Any joy ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade ; sudo apt -f install ; sudo dpkg --configure -a ' ?
[17:30] <paqcito> leftyfb: I'm here again. Sorry, did you say something? I'm from web and I logged out for a while.
[17:30] <paqcito> Did you see what happened?
[17:30] <paqcito> when running the test
[17:32] <Random832> i don't know, the power statistics screen might tell you something, i haven't really worked with that
[17:32] <goid> thanks
[17:33] <wafflejock> yeah power statistics can give you some graphs that give you a rough idea of what the system is seeing but it just fluctuates a lot depending on CPU load
[17:33] <vpackets_> Bashing-om: Testing
[17:33] <wafflejock> think intel P-states probably just have a large affect, can also get the graph on my Android to change rate by changing brightness or playing video and the like too though it's the same across devices from what I've seen more CPU/GPU/Screen = less battery
[17:35] <wafflejock> er more drain on the same battery to be more clear
[17:40] <FunkSt8r> i have a snap that won't start on boot but if I restart apparmor I can start the snap just fine
[17:42] <FunkSt8r> any ideas why apparmor would be different on restarting the service vs loading at boot time?
[17:48] <vpackets_> Bashing-om: still the same : https://pastebin.com/zJDtQXah
[17:49] <skinux> Could I please get some help with these startup errors? https://gist.github.com/skinuxgeek/29514d28dfc18adac7acf19a989fe67b
[17:49] <Bashing-om> vpackets_: We go looking : ' apt policy python-pkg-resources ' shows what ?
[17:50] <vfw> skinux: Show us.
[17:50] <vfw> skinux: (What startup errors?)
[17:52] <skinux> I posted the gist which has them.
[17:53] <minimec> skinux: There is a forum thread on the arch forum about your problem... https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=193802
[17:53] <Jack_Sparrow__> skinux, How did you install steam
[17:53] <vfw> !linuxming | skinux
[17:53] <Jack_Sparrow__> minimec, tx reading it now
[17:54] <skinux> Why send me to an Arch Linux page, I'm using Ubuntu (Linux Mint technically)
[17:54] <skinux> I installed Steam by clicking the install button on their site.
[17:54] <akik> skinux: now i'm sending you to mint support
[17:54] <akik> !mint
[17:55] <minimec> skinux: Because other distros often face the same or similar problems... ;)
[17:56] <vpackets_> Bashing-om: https://pastebin.com/BsCB9rUa
[17:58] <skinux> Okay. I came in here because other than branding, I haven't found anything different from Ubuntu except that it uses a different DE by default.
[18:01] <vfw> skinux: Did you read the post from ubottu?
[18:02] <Jack_Sparrow__> skinux, You need to take it to the Mint Room on spotchat
[18:03] <vfw> skinux:  There are differences and so many of the probelms you encounter will be different from the problems ubuntu users encounter, (some linux-mint problems do not exist for ubuntu users).

[18:07] <ThiagoCMC> Hey guys, I'm seeing that Linux 4.10 is available on Xenial, however, the comman: "apt install linux-generic-hwe-16.04" only brigs Linux 4.8...
[18:07] <ThiagoCMC> anyclue?
[18:09] <vpackets_> Bashing-om: Any clue :( This is messay
[18:09] <peterppp> el
[18:09] <ThiagoCMC> So, which meta-packae brings Linux 4.10 to LTS?
[18:09] <leftyfb> ThiagoCMC: 4.10 is not yet available to Ubuntu 16.10
[18:09] <ThiagoCMC> LTS man
[18:09] <leftyfb> ThiagoCMC: sorry, 4.10 is not yet available to Ubuntu 16.04
[18:09] <ThiagoCMC> 16.04
[18:09] <ThiagoCMC> it is!
[18:10] <leftyfb> ThiagoCMC: where do you see this?
[18:10] <ThiagoCMC> apt-cache search linux 4.10
[18:10] <ThiagoCMC> on my Xenial
[18:10] <leftyfb> ThiagoCMC: incorrect search structure
[18:10] <leftyfb> ThiagoCMC: apt-cache search linux|grep 4.10
[18:11] <leftyfb> ThiagoCMC: or just apt-cache search 4.10
[18:11] <leftyfb> it is not available
[18:11] <Bashing-om> vpackets_: Not at all sure of what is going on " 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main i386 Packages" try ' sudo apt install --reinstall python-pkg-resources ' . See what the package manager advises now .
[18:11] <tomreyn> ThiagoCMC: it'S the -edge package
[18:11] <ThiagoCMC> So, it is available.. Got it
[18:11] <tomreyn> linux-generic-hwe-16.04-edge
[18:12] <ThiagoCMC> Hmmm... Nice!
[18:12] <tomreyn> as in 'on the edge'
[18:12] <ThiagoCMC> That's the way I like it!   =P
[18:12] <leftyfb> why?
[18:12] <ThiagoCMC> I just saw that MaaS IS deploying nodes with 4.10!
[18:12] <ThiagoCMC> Even if I just choose HWE
[18:13] <tomreyn> i would not recommend it unless oyu actually need it.

[18:45] <parapan> Hello I have an install of ubuntu 16.04 server; I want to do automatic backup of full HDD and incremental backups with network storage or cloud; where should I look ?
[18:45] <Bashing-om> immu: How far do you get in the boot process ? Be aware I have no wayland experience !
[18:45] <oerheks> parapan, cronjob, ssh and rsync
[18:46] <parapan> oerheks: ok, but that sounds verry commans line oriented ..are there any friendly options ?
[18:47] <compdoc> parapan, I used to use Back in Time. its in the ubuntu app store
[18:47] <parapan> oerheks: is there a tutorial for this suite cron-ssh-rsync ?
[18:48] <oerheks> parapan, cronjobs for the timetable, ssh for security and for rsync there are tons of manuals too
[18:49] <oerheks> or something like bacula + bacula-web ( interface)
[18:49] <parapan> compdoc: you're correct but that software is using GUI so I do not want to install on the server  . .. .
[18:49] <oerheks> https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-bacula-web-on-ubuntu-14-04
[18:49] <compdoc> parapan, ah. I always install Mate on my servers, so I can remote in
[18:50] <oerheks> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem
[18:50] <parapan> compdoc: nice tip ...for the Mate ---i'll look into it ....
[18:51] <compdoc> parapan, you can install a bare minimum mate desktop, so no unwanted services or apps taking up space
[18:53] <parapan> compdoc: I'm not that advanced yet :D
[18:53] <parapan> oerheks: can I ask some more ?
[18:53] <paqcito> leftyfb: Someone told me what really happended, and what happened was -e flag became the path into local path, and it was just like a "ls"
[18:55] <parapan> oerheks: the way I used to do is creating a full image of HDD at some point in time; and after a while doing another image ....do that cron+ssh+rsync is mirroring all files on the server to a network location ?
[18:56] <oerheks> parapan, sure, but your 1st Q: you want a snapshot of a live server??
[18:56] <oerheks> i would take an other filesystem for thath , like BTRFS
[18:57] <oerheks> or ZFS
[18:58] <parapan> oerheks: I want to have the server backed once in a while ...
[18:59] <parapan> oerheks: but there are some issues . . .for ex I had experienced some issues with the error log files of apache ....which in a matter of hours were going from several Mb to 70 Gb ..filling the full space of the server'
[18:59] <oerheks> if downtime is no problem, you can do that with a simple live iso + gparted too
[18:59] <parapan> oerheks: so I do not want to mirror / baCKUPthis kind of files ..
[19:00] <parapan> oerheks: I don't have a problem with downtime; I can shutdown any time I want ...only I'd like to run 1 or 2 commands and make it happen ...:D
[19:02] <Kulus919> Hi
[19:02] <parapan> oerheks: for the HDD image and so on I used backzilla with good results but it takes time ...staying closed to PC and hitting enter and selecting options ...
[19:02] <Kulus919> I am having problems with 5.1 surround sound in 16.04
[19:03] <Kulus919> can anyone walk me though a possible fix?
[19:04] <ducasse> parapan: if your logs grow like that you have one or more problems that should be fixed
[19:04] <Kulus919> I have a brand new computer with a GeForce GTX 1060 3GB/PCIe/SSE2
[19:04] <parapan> oerheks: for the file mirroring with cron+ssh+rsync I have a rough idea about what is going to happen; however I am not sure in case of restoring what is to be done ; just copying the complete backup back to original drive ?
[19:05] <texla> ux
[19:05] <parapan> ducasse: tell me about it ...! but I wasn't able to figure it out so far ...
[19:06] <Kulus919> I tried a bunch of fixes online to no avail
[19:07] <Kulus919> Has anyone else experienced problems with surround sound in Ubuntu 16.04?

[20:11] <Zaplo> i'm using it in open one in Arch but iirc pro needs older kernel
[20:11] <YankDownUnder> henk717, So you've looked through /etc/cron.* and inspected the actual cron tasks...?
[20:11] <YankDownUnder> henk717, I suppose what I'm getting at is WHAT is not running/failing to run?
[20:11] <boboma> Pici, thx
[20:12] <henk717> The most obvious line that is not working is in a the file /etc/cron.d/overwatch : * * * * * bouncyball /home/bouncyball/scripts/overwatch
[20:13] <henk717> It should execute every minute but nothing is being ran, the script works if i manually start it
[20:13] <YankDownUnder> henk717, And when you manually run the jobs...?
[20:13] <YankDownUnder> henk717, Here's something to look at, too... https://askubuntu.com/questions/624701/where-are-cron-logs-stored-on-ubuntu-14-04
[20:14] <henk717> I am looking in syslog yes
[20:14] <henk717> May 24 21:17:01 coop CRON[2257]: (root) CMD (   cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)
[20:15] <henk717> This is ran every hour, even though i do not make use of it
[20:15] <henk717> My other cron jobs are not running, except for one specific file that runs on reboot
[20:16] <lordX> hallo
[20:20] <YankDownUnder> henk717, Well, the starting point is to look at each and every job and determine why they're not running. Possibly during an update some libs or some-such was upgraded that prevents jobs from running. BTW, 14.04 has reached EOL...have you considered upgrading the server to 16.04? Just wondering.
[20:20] <psychoticwarrior> hey guys and galls
[20:20] <henk717> Its a production machine with a very difficult to replicate configuration, i do not dare do a full upgrade at this time
[20:22] <henk717> Like i mentioned before, all the jobs are running if i start them manually without failure. Its cron that does not trigger them to start
[20:33] <pagios> hello, i would like to display news  in a small window whhile working, some kind of widget that keeps updating with latest cybersecurity news, i am using ubnutu what is the best way to do so?
[20:34] <kenrin> That would depend on your DE honestly,  just google for a good RSS reader that works for you
[20:35] <nacc> YankDownUnder: 14.04 is *not* EOL.
[20:35] <pagios> kenrin: rss readers are alive?
[20:35] <nacc> YankDownUnder: 2019 sometime
[20:35] <pagios> what is the best way t o get news nowadays
[20:35] <kenrin> what else would you call a widget displaying news ?
[20:35] <kenrin> rss..
[20:35] <pagios> twitter?
[20:35] <pagios> what is etter?
[20:35] <pagios> better
[20:38] <pagios> ???
[20:38] <kenrin> I use the RSS Feed in gnome shell extensions.  So if you want twitter or other social media widgets I have no idea
[20:38] <rt0555> does anybody know how to take out the hard drive encryption on ubuntu 16.04
[20:38] <rt0555> 17.04
[20:38] <rt0555> sorry
[20:38] <LeBronse_> for your home directory or the entire hard drive?
[20:40] <rt0555> well when i boot it says i have to put the encryption key and i have to put the password to
[20:40] <rt0555> so yeah full hard drive
[20:41] <kenrin> You'd have to make new partitions and move all your data over then delete the LUKS ones
[20:42] <LeBronse_> Hmm... off the top of my head I can only think of basically just cloning your hard drive when it's decrypted
[20:42] <nacc> rt0555: no, you can't 'remove' whole disk encryption
[20:42] <saliak> shorewall isn’t starting automatically, even though I have “STARTUP_ENABLED=YES” in my shorewall.conf.  what else could be going on?  /etc/init.d/shorewall exists.
[20:42] <nacc> rt0555: what kenrin and LeBronse_ are suggesting is basically the same, but you have to copy the contents/disk unencrypted somewhere else, then rebuild the disk without encryption
[20:44] <grim_> hi
[20:44] <grim_> 22:36] <grim_> i got a problem with my new keybord
[20:44] <grim_> [22:37] <grim_> at the loginscreen kubuntu doesnt accept any keystrokes of it
[20:44] <grim_> [22:37] <grim_> or if i use a sudo command
[20:44] <grim_> [22:37] <grim_> any1 knows that problem?
[20:44] <grim_> [22:38] <grim_> my old keybord works
[20:45] <rt0555> nacc, that sounds complicated
[20:45] <StR1ka> Quick question?
[20:45] <math-alpha> hi grim_
[20:45] <mikeymop> grim_: when typing a password there is no cursor
[20:45] <nacc> rt0555: yes, it is a bit
[20:45] <ikonia> grim_: how are you typing sudo if you can't type any keyboard input
[20:46] <grim_> i think the problem could be that the keybord got an usb paththrough for sticks etc
[20:46] <rt0555> nacc, i just installed ubuntu 17.04 cant i just reinstall?
[20:46] <ikonia> grim_: how are you typing sudo if you can't type any keyboard input
[20:46] <grim_> if i plugg in my old keybord it works
[20:46] <nacc> rt0555: sure, you can also reinstall
[20:46] <ikonia> grim_: how are you typing sudo if you can't type any keyboard input
[20:46] <nacc> rt0555: but you can't 'take it out' of an already insatlled ubuntu
[20:46] <StR1ka> Question about ubuntu server?
[20:47] <ikonia> StR1ka: thats not a question
[20:47] <ikonia> StR1ka: if you have a question ask it
[20:47] <math-alpha> grim_ i think that is rather a hardware issue
[20:47] <StR1ka> Ok, installed ubuntu server successfully, after restart all i get is a black screen
[20:47] <ikonia> StR1ka: you'll need to provide more details than that
[20:48] <math-alpha> and i would add you are not the only one :) https://askubuntu.com/questions/838613/keyboard-not-working-properly-in-kde-after-upgrade-to-kubuntu-16-10
[20:48] <kyuwon> hey guys
[20:48] <math-alpha> kyuwon hi :)
[20:48] <kyuwon> :)
[20:49] <StR1ka> I managed to get it going by holding the right shift
[20:49] <kyuwon> I was trying to install Ubuntu Desktop environment on Ubuntu Server but am stuck at the login screen
[20:49] <StR1ka> And loading grub
[20:50] <kyuwon> I ran "sudo apt-get install -y ubuntu-desktop", but after rebooting, I don't see an account I want to log in
[20:50] <StR1ka> Then the resoltuion resized on its own
[20:50] <StR1ka> I did a restart on the server
[20:50] <StR1ka> But doing the same thing
[20:50] <math-alpha> kyuwon which version is that?
[20:50] <kyuwon> @math-apha it's 16.10
[20:50] <kyuwon> math-alpha: it's 16.10
[20:51] <StR1ka> Black screen, i tried holding right shift during the boot sequence but this time no luck
[20:51] <math-alpha> hmmm well do you have a previou version installed
[20:51] <grim_> str1ka edit your grub settings
[20:51] <grim_> let me take a look
[20:51] <math-alpha> from what are  you installing (flash,cd)
[20:51] <kyuwon> nope. it's a fresh install of ubuntu 16.10 server, with account name vagrant
[20:52] <StR1ka> How do i edit grub settings?
[20:52] <kyuwon> i'm installing it through Vagrant
[20:52] <ikonia> vagrant is not normally an interactive account
[20:52] <ikonia> "installing it through vagrant" ?
[20:52] <kyuwon> Yup. Using provision commands
[20:52] <ikonia> you don't install packages via vargrant
[20:52] <grim_> use the the live cd
[20:52] <ikonia> you provision a host
[20:53] <grim_> than boot it up
[20:53] <ikonia> what ?
[20:53] <kyuwon> I think I might need to add a few more steps to enable my user on the GUI
[20:53] <grim_> and go in via root directory mounting alle needed devices
[20:53] <grim_> and edit /etc/default/grub
[20:53] <kyuwon> The command "sudo apt-get install -y ubuntu-desktop" succeeded, but think it's not enough
[20:53] <grim_> edit
[20:53] <ikonia> kyuwon: what's the actual problem
[20:53] <grim_> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="noquiet nosplash nomodeset"
[20:53] <grim_> and it should work
[20:54] <ikonia> kyuwon: that will install the unity desktop and associated package dependencies
[20:54] <kyuwon> ikonia: cannot see user 'vagrant' at the log in screen
[20:54] <ikonia> kyuwon: because it's not an interactive user
[20:54] <kyuwon> ikonia: can I make it interactive?
[20:54] <kyuwon> ikonia: or how can I add an interactive user?
[20:54] <ikonia> kyuwon: you don't
[20:54] <ikonia> thats not how vagrant works
[20:55] <kyuwon> ikonia: okay. then I want to add an interactive user additionally. any way to do that?
[20:55] <ikonia> kyuwon: createthe user account
[20:56] <kyuwon> ikonia: would it be interactive user account without any further settings?
[20:56] <ikonia> kyuwon: no
[20:56] <ikonia> kyuwon: just create a new user, it will be an interactive user
[20:57] <qswz> is it possible to install an aur package on ubuntu?
[20:57] <metronomicon> Hello,altho I'm setting text scaling factor to 1,00 in Unity Tweak tool it somehow switches back to 0,88 .Is there a way to save this setting?
[20:57] <qswz> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pgadmin4/
[20:57] <ikonia> qswz: nope
[20:57] <qswz> hmm ok thanks
[20:59] <qswz> https://www.pgadmin.org/download/ they didn't really care about debian
[21:00] <kyuwon> ikonia: thanks! am trying it
[21:00] <grim_> heeeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllllppppppp i got a problem with my new keybord. At the login screen kubuntu doesnt accept any keystroke of the new keybord. Only the old one works
[21:01] <grim_> if im logged in everything is fine...
[21:01] <grim_> any1 got an idea?
[21:01] <math-alpha> grim_  hmm :)
[21:01] <kyuwon> ikonia: think it works! thanks a lot
[21:02] <ikonia> grim_: you'll get better responses from people not doing things like "heeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllllpppppppppp"
[21:02] <grim_> the difference could be, the new one have 2nd usb connect for a usb paththrough device
[21:02] <jvelasquez> how come sfdisk in Ubuntu has no documented --delete feature?
[21:03] <ChaiTRex> qswz: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto for how to convert a .rpm file to a .deb file.
[21:03] <ikonia> ChaiTRex: how does that help him with an arch package
[21:03] <aLeSD> hi all
[21:03] <qswz> sorry just left,
[21:03] <ikonia> ChaiTRex: and that process will not work for non-arch-independent package
[21:04] <qswz> back I didn't see
[21:04] <ikonia> eg only no-arch packages
[21:04] <aLeSD> I just installed ubuntu on a usb-storage. When I use anothrer usb port it can't boot : it can't find root partition. Any idea ?
[21:06] <ChaiTRex> ikonia: The file mentioned is an .rpm file "for various Redhat and derivative distributions" (see https://www.pgadmin.org/download/pgadmin-4-rpm/), not for Arch.
[21:07] <ChaiTRex> ikonia: There's also a source package.
[21:07] <ikonia> ChaiTRex: no, he asked for https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pgadmin4/
[21:07] <ikonia> ChaiTRex: and again, converting an rpm to a deb will not work unless it's arch independant
[21:10] <AlexPortable> I want to add a bash script to the right mouse button menu (-> open with, bash script). What would be the best way to do this? My goal is to make a rename script that will put the current date in the filename + something else
[21:12] <sebsebseb> hi
[21:12] <AlexPortable> hi
[21:13] <sebsebseb> AlexPortable: hi
[21:13] <mistawright> hi guys i am using pureftpd with mysql for the authentication. i'm running into an issue where a user is said to exist but trying to remove it with pure-pw deluser user results in an error has anyone had this issue?
[21:14] <ikonia> "results in an error" - not really going to help is it
[21:14] <ChaiTRex> AlexPortable: If you're using Nautilus (the standard Ubuntu file manager), see https://askubuntu.com/a/21956/616451
[21:15] <ikonia> the right mouse button isn't controlled by the file manager
[21:15] <ikonia> it's controlled by the shell
[21:15] <ikonia> (gnome-shell, unity, etc)
[21:15] <ikonia> (not shell as in bash)
[21:24] <sanchke> Does anyone know of a lightweight piece of software that's only job is to track bugs in software?
[21:25] <sanchke> I'm not looking for anything fancy, I'm looking for something minimal.
[21:25] <sebsebseb> sanchke: nope
[21:26] <sebsebseb> sanchke: and may not be anything or as such
[21:26] <sanchke> sebsebseb, This is disappointing, time to make my own I suppose.
[21:26] <sebsebseb> sanchke: might be something, but how would software know what a bug is anyway ?
[21:26] <sebsebseb> in code
[21:27] <nacc> sanchke: you mean like your own bugzilla?
[21:27] <nacc> sebsebseb: i think you went too meta in their query :)
[21:27] <sanchke> nacc, Does bugzilla have a minimal CLI? I know of it's php front-end, but is that the only option?
[21:28] <kk4ewt> sanchke,  bug tracking just for you or public
[21:29] <sanchke> kk4ewt, in-between, Internal use for a small team of devs.
[21:29] <nacc> sanchke: there are lots of tools that talk bz
[21:29] <nacc> !info bugz
[21:29] <nacc> sanchke: and there are python and other language bindings, i think
[21:30] <sanchke> nacc, Thanks!
[21:30] <kk4ewt> so you need a database and a frontend you might as well go for bugzilla
[21:30] <sicc_sicc> Why not use github with issues?
[21:30] <nacc> sanchke: there also appears to be 'bugzilla-cli'
[21:31] <sanchke> sicc_sicc, I hate github. Might as well outsource my entire department why don't I? JK but seriously I hate cloud hosting of any sort
[21:32] <sicc_sicc> sanchke: you could then check in a txtfile in the project root :-)
[21:33] <sicc_sicc> lightweight...
[21:33] <sanchke> sicc_sicc, indeed I could. I was hoping to be *a little* more advanced than that.
[21:36] <vlt> Hello. I want to un-distort an image of a rectangle. Maybe by specifying points that "should be" a straight line. Any idea what software that runs on Ubuntu I’m looking for?
[21:37] <nacc> vlt: not that i know how, but i'm sure gimp can do that
[21:37] <sicc_sicc> gimp +1
[21:37] <DarkPsydeLord> more likely inkscape
[21:37] <sicc_sicc> isn't inkscape for vector graphics?
[21:37] <vlt> DarkPsydeLord: Inkscape?
[21:37] <DarkPsydeLord> yes
[21:37] <math-alpha> DarkPsydeLord : yup i agree
[21:37] <DarkPsydeLord> its vector graphics
[21:38] <math-alpha> but you can you can also use it to edit pics
[21:38] <nacc> DarkPsydeLord: i'm not sure why more likely? beyond inkscape may be easier to use
[21:38] <DarkPsydeLord> maybe we need a lil bit more info since we dont really know what the image is
[21:39] <DarkPsydeLord> and for
[21:39] <nacc> DarkPsydeLord: good point :)
[21:39] <math-alpha> vlt what file format is it?
[21:39] <vlt> math-alpha: Any raster image.
[21:40] <math-alpha> vlt so you can use inkscape
[21:41] <sicc_sicc> whatever raster image means... What does it mean
[21:41] <vlt> How? I’d draw a path on top of the imported image. And then?
[21:41] <DarkPsydeLord> then gimp or inkscape should work if you only wanna draw something on the image
[21:41] <math-alpha> vlt do you maen how to draw or what to draw with?
[21:43] <vlt> math-alpha: How to distort the image after having drawn the path that should later become a straight line (or several of them a rectangle).
[21:44] <sicc_sicc> With gimp you can just rotate the image freely until horizontal lines are straight.
[21:44]  * vlt googles the face palm emoticon
[21:46] <nacc> vlt: tbh, i think you want to ask your question in a channel specific the tool you want to use
[21:46] <nacc> vlt: e.g., gimp or inkscape
[21:46] <vlt> nacc: I think neither of them will do the job.
[21:47] <nacc> vlt: tbh, i have not heard of anything that gimp *can't* do with sufficient knowledge
[21:47] <nacc> vlt: but if nothing will do what you want, then so be it, write some code that will
[21:47] <sicc_sicc> take a look here https://docs.gimp.org/en/filters-distort.html
[21:47] <vlt> sicc_sicc: Thank you.
[21:54] <AlexPortable> sebsebseb: are you dutch
[21:55] <AlexPortable> ChaiTRex: well will that only put it for certain filetypes or for all?
[21:55] <sebsebseb> AlexPortable: no why
[21:55] <psychoticwarrior> hows it going
[21:56] <ChaiTRex> AlexPortable: It will show up when you right click on any file or folder.
[21:56] <AlexPortable> oh
[21:56] <AlexPortable> i dont want that
[21:58] <hiru> I was having a look at screenfetch and I noticed there are themese for windows managers. is it possible to change WM theme? just curious
[21:58] <hiru> *themes
[22:10] <sire_admin> Is Drone` an actual drone?
[22:12] <ChaiTRex> Yes.
[22:12] <tomreyn> no, it's a bot, not a drone.
[22:12] <tomreyn> oh, you succeeded to respond in time, i failed.
[22:35] <sourceslayer> Hey
[22:35] <sourceslayer> What package is Qt5 QML on Ubuntu?
[22:35] <sebsebseb> sourceslayer: for what?
[22:35] <sebsebseb> sourceslayer: and would be in some KDE or plasma package I guess
[22:35] <sourceslayer> For the Qt-quick development packages
[22:36] <sebsebseb> oh
[22:36] <nacc> !info libqt5qml5
[22:36] <nacc> that ?
[22:36] <nacc> sourceslayer: --^
[22:36] <sourceslayer> Yes, I guess so
[22:37] <sourceslayer> For some reason it's not working for Qmake
[22:37] <nacc> sourceslayer: i'm not a qt developer, i'd suggest looking through `apt search <search string>`
[22:37] <nacc> sourceslayer: or asking the kde developers
[22:37] <sourceslayer> I will try, thank you
[22:37] <nacc> *kubuntu
[22:42] <bray90820> Maybe someone can help me fix a few error I am having with sudo apt-get upgrade
[22:42] <bray90820> https://pastebin.com/raw/NNPCzQT8
[22:45] <sourceslayer> I think I don't need to try, apparently I needed qtdeclarative5-dev, which wasn't installed but qtdeclarative5-dev-tool was
[22:47] <tomreyn> bray90820that link redirects me to https://pastebin.com/index
[22:47] <tomreyn> bray90820: ^
[22:48] <bray90820> tomreyn: Try this one
[22:48] <bray90820> https://pastebin.com/NNPCzQT8
[22:50] <bray90820> Actually don't worry about it I ended up fixing it but thanks anyways
[22:50] <tomreyn> bray90820: works. what you have there are upstart -> systemd migration issues due to what i guess are 3rd party packages.
[22:51] <bray90820> tomreyn: Thanks anyways but I removed the affected files from /etc/init.d/ and it all works noe
[22:52] <tomreyn> either that, or just 3rd party software which fails on being systemd compatble.
[22:53] <bray90820> tomreyn: Again thanks but it's fixed
[22:55] <tomreyn> ok
[22:57] <Jack_Sparrow__>  that I can use the USB Formatter, give it my asmin password and not end up with a USB drive that I can use without going and setting permissions
[23:00] <tomreyn> Jack_Sparrow__: what you just wrote looks like an incomplete statement or question - the one line you posted starts with " that I can use the USB formatter,"
[23:07] <Jack_Sparrow__> Yep, was half way through when the ubuntu channel got my password and opened up and brought me here in the middle of typing
[23:07] <Jack_Sparrow__> It was intended for mint...  the fix was to not use nemo and use nautilus
[23:22] <psychoticwarrior> back in ubuntu
[23:33] <Jack_Sparrow__> !broadcom
[23:33] <psychoticwarrior> you may need to do make
[23:33] <psychoticwarrior> make install
[23:34] <dmtd> Hi All! I need to use lsyncd to watch and sync two different source folders locally to two different remote folders, respectively. I also want to do this with rsyncd over a custom daemon. Doesn't seem like anyone has done this. Any ideas?
[23:36] <dmtd> by custom daemon I mean a custom port running rsync:// protocol connecting to rsyncd on remote
[23:38] <idzireit> "/topic"
[23:39] <dmtd> idzireit: are you saying that is off topic? It runs on ubuntu and involves a kernel module so I'm not exactly sure it is off topic exactly
[23:40] <Jack_Sparrow__> dmtd, Has nothing to do with Ubuntu Support
[23:40] <nacc> dmtd: what kernel modules does it involve?
[23:40] <idzireit> dmtd no I was trying the example from the irc guidelines.  when i type just the backslash and topic it gives me error
[23:41] <dmtd> nacc: inotify or inode notify
[23:41] <nacc> dmtd: so you already know what to use ...
[23:41] <nacc> dmtd: this channel isn't for helping you write your software, is what Jack_Sparrow__ was saying
[23:42] <Jordan_U> idzireit: What error message did it give? In almost all IRC clients typing "/topic" without the quotes should print the topic of the channel you're currently in.
[23:42] <dmtd> nacc: haha yes but I've received help on rsync related topics in the past here. I'm not writing software, I'm configuring existing software that was written to run on ubuntu systems. My apologies if I'm breaking some rules! No harm intended
[23:42] <idzireit> #ubuntu :You're not a channel operator
[23:42] <nacc> idzireit: nothing trailing it. you can't set the topic
[23:43] <nacc> idzireit: just /topic (nothing after the c in topic)
[23:43] <idzireit> I am typing in /topic
[23:43] <Jack_Sparrow__> no space in front
[23:43] <Jack_Sparrow__> no quotes
[23:43] <Jordan_U> idzireit: What IRC client are you using?
[23:44] <idzireit> xchat-GNOME IRC Chat
[23:44] <Jordan_U> idzireit: That is quite odd then.
[23:44] <nacc> idzireit: the above message (afaict) occurs when you try to run '/topic <something after /topic>'
[23:45] <idzireit> is not a big deal (yet) until i run into something else that I need a command line info about but I am typing it exactly as I have shown no spaces nothing added
[23:46] <idzireit> 6 total characters
