[10:47] <bekks> easyOnMe: You dont need to get my confirmation on what I just told you, twice.
[10:47] <easyOnMe> bekks: yeah I get it let me just research the correct command to issue on the terminal
[10:47] <easyOnMe> bekks: quite new to ubuntu
[10:47] <easyOnMe> not too familiar with command on permissions as I only know the basic stuff
[10:51] <bekks> easyOnMe: groupadd and useradd -G groupname username
[10:51] <easyOnMe> bekks: give a sec I got some reading from ubuntu
[10:52] <easyOnMe> let me get back to you if there's somethings I don't quite understand
[10:52] <easyOnMe> thanks man
[10:53] <easyOnMe> bekks: ok I am done reading
[10:53] <easyOnMe> my question is the group www-data is this a default group
[10:54] <bekks> We dont know whats the default webservergroup on a Digital Ocean VPS.
[10:54] <easyOnMe> bekks: by default I mean ubuntu has it already right from the very start
[10:54] <easyOnMe> bekks: no we are talking about ubuntu
[10:54] <bekks> easyOnMe: Seconds ago you were on a Digital Ocean VPS. I dont think that has changed.
[10:55] <the0_> lol
[10:55] <easyOnMe> bekks: what is the command on the terminal to list down user groups on ubuntu
[10:55] <bekks> easyOnMe: cat /etc/group
[10:57] <easyOnMe> bekks: ok I see www-data:x:33
[10:57] <the0__> k
[10:57] <easyOnMe> what does that mean
[10:58] <bekks> easyOnMe: Which doesnt necessarily mean that the directory in question is owned by that group.
[10:58] <easyOnMe> bekks: so you mean www-data already exist
[10:58] <easyOnMe> and if we assign permission for this group www-data to write on /var/www/html
[10:59] <easyOnMe> we can do so right
[10:59] <bekks> easyOnMe: a group called "www-data" exists. It depends on Digital Ocean wether that group is used for what you think it is for.
[10:59] <bekks> easyOnMe: NO. Do you actually READ what I am telling you?
[10:59] <easyOnMe> and then include user1 to that group and therefore user1 can upload files on the html folder
[10:59] <easyOnMe> bekks: yes
[10:59] <easyOnMe> I am reading
[10:59] <bekks> Obviously you are still ignoring it.
[11:00] <easyOnMe> bekks: the server I use in DO is ubuntu 14.01
[11:00] <easyOnMe> and it works just like any other ubuntu
[11:00] <easyOnMe> that is why I am posting questions here
[11:00] <bekks> easyOnMe: No it doesnt.
[11:00] <easyOnMe> bekks: ok having said that
[11:01] <EriC^^> easyOnMe: which dir are you trying to upload to?
[11:01] <bekks> easyOnMe: They use their own configs, etc. which we dont know about. If you need support for it, ask THEM, not us.
[11:01] <bekks> easyOnMe: Told you three times now, thats enough.
[11:01] <easyOnMe> bekks: ok thanks
[11:01] <easyOnMe> no problem
[11:01] <easyOnMe> just allow me to chat with some people here ok
[11:01] <easyOnMe> thanks
[11:01] <easyOnMe> you have been very informative I learn a lot
[11:01] <easyOnMe> thanks
[11:01] <easyOnMe> EriC^^: the directory is /var/www/html
[11:02] <easyOnMe> but I only want html to be uploaded files to
[11:02] <easyOnMe> that is all I am going to do
[11:02] <EriC^^> easyOnMe: type ls -ld /var/www/html and see which user/group owns it
[11:02] <easyOnMe> I just want to be safe and not cause any security vulnerabilities just like what bekks was advising me
[11:02] <easyOnMe> EriC^^: ok give me a sec
[11:04] <easyOnMe> EriC^^: it says root root
[11:04] <easyOnMe> EriC^^: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 16  2014 /var/www/html
[11:04] <easyOnMe> EriC^^: so any ideas what else I can do now
[11:05] <histo> easyOnMe: how'd you configure apache?
[11:05] <easyOnMe> my user name is user1 and I want to upload files inside html folder without causing security vulnerabilities
[11:05] <easyOnMe> histo: I think our web admin did it the usual way
[11:06] <histo> easyOnMe: are you hosting files from /var/www/html ?
[11:06] <easyOnMe> histo: that is what I intend to
[11:06] <kdzar> who can recommend an easy web monitoring backround software for lan ?
[11:06] <bekks> kdzar: Whats a "web monitoring background software" - what do you expect it to do?
[11:06] <easyOnMe> histo: I have access to /var/www/html but no permission to upload files into it
[11:07] <histo> easyOnMe: Did your 'web admin' possibly setup a public directory in your /home/user1  somewhere?
[11:07] <easyOnMe> histo: however I can change the permission but I want to be careful not to cause any security issues if ever I do so
[11:07] <kdzar> bekks i need to make graphs but thats not a req for the software to show how much bandwith is used to sites like youtube
[11:07] <histo> easyOnMe: right, because it's owned by root:root and other users have no write
[11:07] <easyOnMe> histo: ok having said that
[11:08] <easyOnMe> the web admin who quit yesterday just advise me to use my own account
[11:08] <easyOnMe> as this is the only account with permission since I was chuck with this job of doing some web server stuff
[11:08] <histo> easyOnMe: so you don't have access to sudo ?
[11:08] <easyOnMe> histo: I am not sure though
[11:08] <histo> easyOnMe: or root?
[11:08] <easyOnMe> is there a way to check
[11:08] <histo> easyOnMe: sudo echo test
[11:09] <easyOnMe> histo: I got this back
[11:09] <easyOnMe> test
[11:09] <EriC^^> easyOnMe: shouldn't the webserver already be set up? you said you wanted to copy the files to /var/www/html ?
[11:09] <the0__> easyonme makes me hate chinese people lol
[11:10] <easyOnMe> the0__: man people like you gets into trouble
[11:10] <easyOnMe> the0__: firstly I am not Chinese man
[11:10] <easyOnMe> the0__: you have been very rude even earlier
[11:10] <EriC^^> easyOnMe: i think the problem is trying to see how it was setup to use what etc.
[11:10] <easyOnMe> other people warn you already
[11:10] <easyOnMe> the0__: be careful man
[11:10] <histo> easyOnMe: well you have several options. I would add permisisons for a group to write to html and then make your user part of that group
[11:10] <the0__> what are you talking about and dont be giving me no warning
[11:11] <easyOnMe> histo: yeah I think that is a better approach
[11:11] <the0__> and i know for a fact you are chinese , lol you just said it earlier
[11:11] <easyOnMe> the0__: I did not say I am Chinese man
[11:11] <easyOnMe> the0__: well just be careful man
[11:11] <easyOnMe> your language and your manners
[11:11] <EriC^^> easyOnMe: ok, type sudo groupadd <group name>
[11:11] <the0__> you said your from beijing
[11:12] <EriC^^> easyOnMe: nevermind him
[11:12] <easyOnMe> the0__: man just a favor let me just do my work
[11:12] <easyOnMe> thanks
[11:12] <the0__> lol you mean let eric do your work
[11:12] <easyOnMe> EriC^^: thanks
[11:12] <histo> easyOnMe: wasn't www-data there from my skim of your previous comments?
[11:13] <easyOnMe> histo: yup
[11:13] <easyOnMe> so that do I do
[11:13] <easyOnMe> do sudo groupadd groupname or just assign permission to www-data
[11:13] <EriC^^> histo: would it somehow help to search which dirs are owned or have the group www-data or something?
[11:13] <EriC^^> or maybe if he uploaded some config files to you histo ?
[11:14] <kdzar> im looking at cacti
[11:14] <kdzar> anyone using it?
[11:14] <xpheres> hello
[11:14] <xpheres> anyone has an ubuntu phone?
[11:14] <bekks> kdzar: Some people use it.
[11:14] <histo> easyOnMe: chown :www-data /some/directory  to make www-data the group of that directory
[11:14] <kdzar> bekks you?
[11:15] <bekks> kdzar: whats your actual question?
[11:15] <easyOnMe> histo: you mean issue a command like this: sudo chown :www-data /var/www/html
[11:15] <kdzar> bekks i need to make graphs but thats not a req for the software to show how much bandwith is used to sites like youtube. any ideas on sofware that can do this
[11:15] <histo> easyOnMe: then you can sudo chmod g+w /some/directory and sudo usermod -a -G www-data youruser
[11:15] <histo> easyOnMe: yes
[11:15] <bekks> kdzar: You are looking at cacti - just take a look wether it fits your requirements.
[11:16] <easyOnMe> histo: so do this sudo chmod g+w /html/ and sudo usermod -a -G www-data user1
[11:16] <easyOnMe> or this
[11:16] <easyOnMe> histo: so do this sudo chmod g+w /var/www/html/ and sudo usermod -a -G www-data user1
[11:17] <histo> easyOnMe: the later
[11:17] <easyOnMe> histo: so do this sudo chmod g+w /var/www/html/ and sudo usermod -a -G www-data user1
[11:18] <easyOnMe> histo: do i need to put slash in the end like this: sudo chmod g+w /var/www/html/
[11:19] <histo> easyOnMe: no
[11:19] <easyOnMe> ok
[11:19] <easyOnMe> thanks
[11:19] <moobase> all scripts in /etc/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ will be executed when you suspend/wake. Future proof or legacy soon to be depricated? Way more convenient than unit files.
[11:19] <histo> easyOnMe: are there already files in /var/www/html?
[11:20] <easyOnMe> histo: only the default index.html
[11:20] <histo> easyOnMe: k that file probably has the same permissions as /var/www/html
[11:20] <easyOnMe> i just did this
[11:21] <easyOnMe> histo: sudo chmod g+w /var/www/html
[11:21] <easyOnMe> as for the last part I am now going to do
[11:21] <easyOnMe> sudo usermod -a -G www-data user1
[11:21] <histo> wouldn't you have to route all traffic through your box to use something like cacti?
[11:21] <easyOnMe> correct?
[11:21] <histo> easyOnMe: yes
[11:22] <easyOnMe> histo: thanks
[11:22] <histo> easyOnMe: now user1 is a member of the www-data group which has write access to /var/www/html  directory
[11:23] <easyOnMe> histo: ok so this means it will allow me to use this user's account to do ftp using filezilla
[11:25] <histo> easyOnMe: well if you want to be secure you shouldn't be using ftp. Use somehting like sftp instead
[11:26] <easyOnMe> histo: yup
[11:26] <easyOnMe> noted
[11:26] <histo> ahh cacti uses snmp
[11:26] <easyOnMe> thanks
[11:26] <histo> easyOnMe: do you have ssh access to the box with user1?
[11:26] <easyOnMe> histo: if I issue this command rm -rf foldername
[11:26] <histo> easyOnMe: huh?
[11:26] <easyOnMe> this will also delete the folder and all the folders and files inside that folder being rm right
[11:27] <histo> easyOnMe: yes but the -f is probably not needed
[11:27] <easyOnMe> histo: oh ok
[11:27] <easyOnMe> histo: yup
[11:27] <easyOnMe> I got access
[11:27] <easyOnMe> why
[11:28] <histo> easyOnMe: hwy what?
[11:28] <easyOnMe> histo: no because you were asking about whether I got ssh access to the vps box
[11:28] <easyOnMe> so I ask why
[11:28] <histo> easyOnMe: because if you have ssh access you can use sftp instead of ftp
[11:29] <easyOnMe> histo: ok
[11:29] <easyOnMe> I will
[11:29] <easyOnMe> note with thanks man
[11:29] <moobase> gotta run flock4 (lock screen) in the graphics tty (by a suspension script). How? Just running it in another tty or the script won't lock the screen
[11:29] <easyOnMe> histo: what is the terminal command to show hidden files
[11:29] <bekks> easyOnMe: ls -a
[11:29] <easyOnMe> oh ok
[11:30] <easyOnMe> thank you
[11:30] <paul_> Hi guys
[11:30] <histo> !manual | easyOnMe
[11:32] <paul_> Could anyone please help me I'm new with Ubuntu and made a mistake...
[11:32] <histo> paul_: only if you give details and ask what you need help with.
[11:32] <paul_> I would like to change back the colors of the gnome terminal to the default ones
[11:34] <histo> paul_: under your profile settings in gnome-terminal youc an change the colors
[11:34] <paul_> Is it OK to post here a link to the guide I followed in order to change them in the first place ? I think it might help you to understand my problem
[11:34] <histo> paul_: sure
[11:34] <paul_> Ok cool !
[11:34] <paul_> http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/solarized-must-have-color-paletter-for.html
[11:35] <paul_> I used this, it works well but it's ugly
[11:35] <easyOnMe> histo: just curious
[11:36] <easyOnMe> I use filezilla to delete files which is awfully slow
[11:36] <easyOnMe> can I just close it for it to stop the deletion process
[11:36] <histo> paul_: can you pastebin the script that you ran the .set_dark.sh or .set_light.sh
[11:36] <paul_> Right away
[11:37] <histo> !paste | paul_
[11:38] <histo> easyOnMe: I haven't used ftp in ages. I'm not sure how it handles file deletion when the connection is lost
[11:38] <easyOnMe> histo: well let me share it with you
[11:38] <easyOnMe> if you close it while it is deleting the deletion stops
[11:38] <anttal> hi
[11:38] <anttal> i came again to ask stupid question
[11:39] <easyOnMe> and I use the rm approach to delete folders and files and in an instant
[11:39] <easyOnMe> folder and files are deleted filezilla takes ages
[11:39] <anttal> http://pastebin.com/vYvQ1C16 = Why that prints "portti" at first row on awway
[11:39] <anttal> *array
[11:39] <paul_> histo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11866207/
[11:40] <anttal> "portti" is that row name that i want to print on array
[11:40] <histo> paul_: now we need to see the src/set_theme_default_profile.sh  script since that is being called
[11:40] <paul_> histo : here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/11866210/
[11:41] <marcos_> a
[11:42] <histo> paul_: what is the output of echo $dconfdir
[11:43] <histo> in a terminal
[11:44] <paul_> a blank line...
[11:44] <Amis> (14.04LTS, Gnome Flashback) Hello! After an update binding the Windows key to the gnome run dialog doesn't work here. Any ideas? (dconf: org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings.panel-run-dialog = ['Super_L'])
[11:44] <histo> paul_: edit > preferences > profiles   how many profiles do you have there
[11:44] <paul_> Only default
[11:45] <histo> paul_: gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/gnome-terminal
[11:45] <histo> paul_: you'll probably have to log out and back in to see the change.
[11:45] <easyOnMe> histo: I just want to aks
[11:45] <easyOnMe> ask
[11:45] <easyOnMe> currently in this server vps that is
[11:45] <easyOnMe> there is only two accounts right
[11:45] <paul_> histo : i'll be right back !
[11:46] <easyOnMe> my user1 account and the root account
[11:46] <anttal> can some1 help me :(
[11:46] <easyOnMe> there are
[11:46] <easyOnMe> sorry
[11:46] <easyOnMe> how do I get access to the root account
[11:46] <easyOnMe> via ssh
[11:46] <histo> anttal: ask in #bash
[11:47] <anttal> histo i will thanks
[11:47] <anttal> easyOnMe sudo su?
[11:47] <paul_> histo : it worked !
[11:47] <paul_> histo : thank you very much !
[11:47] <histo> easyOnMe: you'd have to set that up through digital oceans control panel. You'll probably also want to reset the root password through their panel to revoke whoever had access before rights.
[11:47] <easyOnMe> anttal: thanks
[11:48] <Amis> Setting ['<Shift>Super_L'] instead of ['Super_L'] in dconf works. Why can't I set it to the windows key without any modifiers?
[11:48] <histo> easyOnMe: don't use sudo su
[11:48] <easyOnMe> histo: why
[11:48] <paul_> histo : one last thing, do you think it is possible to use themes found here : http://tmtheme-editor.herokuapp.com/#!/editor/theme/PlasticCodeWrap in the gnome terminal ?
[11:48] <histo> easyOnMe: because it's the incorrect way.
[11:48] <histo> !sudo | easyOnMe
[11:48] <easyOnMe> histo: so you mean when I do su
[11:48] <easyOnMe> and change the root password it won't work
[11:49] <easyOnMe> I mean it will not override the existing root password if I change the root password
[11:49] <easyOnMe> using us
[11:49] <histo> easyOnMe: With your VPS there are ssh keys enabled etc...
[11:49] <easyOnMe> using su
[11:49] <easyOnMe> yes
[11:49] <easyOnMe> correct
[11:49] <easyOnMe> histo: oh yeah
[11:49] <easyOnMe> correct
[11:49] <easyOnMe> I get what you mean
[11:49] <histo> easyOnMe: they also setup a root password when normal ubuntu does not.
[11:49] <easyOnMe> there is this part where there is option to reset the password
[11:50] <easyOnMe> histo: ok ok
[11:50] <easyOnMe> copy
[11:50] <easyOnMe> I will do so
[11:50] <easyOnMe> but if I change the root password my user1 account password won't be affected right
[11:50] <histo> easyOnMe: you really need to check ditial oceans control panel out and their guides.
[11:50] <easyOnMe> histo: man they do not have one
[11:50] <cfhowlett> explain like I'm a noob: sudo vs. pkexec
[11:50] <histo> easyOnMe: it should not be, but I have no idea what they have configured.
[11:50] <easyOnMe> all they have are scattered tutorials
[11:51] <marcos_> l
[11:51] <easyOnMe> that is why earlier this user named androidhacker advised me to use vultr instead
[11:51] <histo> cfhowlett: Without checking man I believe it probably has to do with the environment the command is run in.
[11:51] <histo> as the other user.
[11:51] <the0__> Modules are normally packaged as *.zip files; they contain a configuration file plus a number of data files. Installation of such a module is done by cd'ing to your personal Sword (not Xiphos) configuration directory, ~/.sword, and unzipping the file there. The configuration file will be left in "mods.d", and the module's data files will go into a subdirectory of "modules". Alternatively, if you have write access to the system Sword directory
[11:51] <the0__> , typically /usr/share/sword, you may cd there instead before unzipping.
[11:52] <the0__> i already unzipped the files in the downloads dir, is there a fast command to get things where they need to go ?
[11:52] <cfhowlett> histo, hmm.  pkexec immediately requests the root user password, whereas sudo requires you BE the root user ...
[11:52] <easyOnMe> histo: are you a web server admin
[11:52] <easyOnMe> yourself
[11:52] <histo> the0__: cp -a source_directory destination_directory/
[11:53] <histo> easyOnMe: I administer a web server that I own. So I guess yes.
[11:53] <easyOnMe> histo: woah
[11:53] <histo> not my profession though.
[11:53] <easyOnMe> so your web server does what
[11:53] <histo> easyOnMe: hosts a web page.
[11:54] <easyOnMe> histo: for?
[11:54] <the0__> there are two different directors though  mods.d and modules which both have their own places to go
[11:54] <histo> the0__: their own place to go where?
[11:54] <easyOnMe> histo: what is your website about?
[11:54] <histo> the0__: you could do something like cp -a * somedestination/ if they are going int he same place
[11:55] <histo> easyOnMe: it's just a page about my company.
[11:55] <easyOnMe> what is your profession then if you do not mind me asking?
[11:55] <easyOnMe> histo: what's the name of your site?
[11:55] <histo> easyOnMe: I'd rather not say
[11:55] <easyOnMe> histo: you mean your website or your profession?
[11:56] <histo> easyOnMe: both
[11:56] <easyOnMe> histo: hahaha
[11:56] <easyOnMe> alright no problem
[11:56] <easyOnMe> thanks for all the help man
[11:56] <histo> No problem.
[11:56] <the0__> i unzip the file i get two folders one named mods.d and another named something else what i need to do with them is listed above
[11:57] <histo> the0__: you can copy multiple sources to a destination
[11:57] <easyOnMe> histo: man feeling lazy
[11:57] <easyOnMe> is it possible to open a file from a vps and continue coding
[11:57] <easyOnMe> right from the web root of the vps
[11:58] <the0__> well yeah but they both have their own destinations and i have unzipped 50+ folders
[11:59] <histo> the0__: why not just navigate tot he sword directory and unzip there
[11:59] <the0__> because i already trashed the .zips , is there a way to retrieve them ?
[11:59] <histo> the0__: pull them out of the trash
[12:00] <histo> the0__: restore via gui or .Trash
[12:00] <the0__> stupid question lol here i go
[12:00] <histo> the0__: or leave them there and unzip from .Trash
[12:00] <ChauffeR> do /G megah
[12:00] <ChauffeR> ok
[12:00] <the0__> if i give you the filepath destination can you help me with the command ? lol
[12:01] <histo> the0__: or if you don't want to cd just unzip somefile.zip -d somedestination
[12:01] <histo> the0__: sure
[12:02] <histo> easyOnMe: huh?
[12:02] <easyOnMe> histo: I was just toying the idea whether I can open the file I uploaded in filezilla
[12:02] <easyOnMe> continue coding and then save
[12:02] <histo> easyOnMe: you mean edit via command line?  There are multiple editors available like nano or vi / vim
[12:02] <easyOnMe> and see the result real time
[12:02] <easyOnMe> oh ok
[12:02] <easyOnMe> yup
[12:03] <histo> easyOnMe: what OS are you running filezilla from?
[12:03] <easyOnMe> they are actually very handy
[12:03] <easyOnMe> ubuntu 14.01
[12:03] <histo> easyOnMe: you could mount the html directory locally and edit the files there.
[12:03] <easyOnMe> histo: are you also into software development
[12:03] <easyOnMe> histo: how
[12:03] <histo> easyOnMe: with ssh
[12:03] <easyOnMe> so what I think is possible
[12:04] <histo> easyOnMe: ofcourse
[12:04] <the0__> /usr/share/sword
[12:04] <easyOnMe> now I am connected by ssh
[12:04] <easyOnMe> how do I mount the html directory
[12:04] <histo> the0__: unzip somefile.zip -d /usr/share/sword
[12:04] <the0__> i want to do them all at once and they are still in the trash
[12:05] <histo> easyOnMe: on your local machine mkdir somedirectory  then use something like sshfs.  so sshfs<EMAIL_ADDRESS>somedirectory
[12:05] <histo> the0__: Are there other zip files in the trash?
[12:06] <emin90> hii
[12:06] <histo> the0__: that aren't related
[12:06] <the0__> no
[12:06] <easyOnMe> histo: ok if I do this how exactly is this going to work
[12:06] <histo> the0__: assuming you have a backup of sword  then just unzip * -d /usr/share/sword
[12:06] <the0__> gather your thoughts easyonme
[12:06] <easyOnMe> does it work like as if I am opening the html directory from a local directory so that when I hit save it saves it directly to the vps server too
[12:07] <histo> easyOnMe: sshfs user1@ip.of.vps.box:/var/www/html somedirectory   will mount /var/www/html to your local somedirectory via ssh.
[12:07] <histo> easyOnMe: yes
[12:08] <the0__> unzip:  cannot find or open AB, AB.zip or AB.ZIP.
[12:08] <histo> easyOnMe: You'll probably have to install sshfs on your local machine.
[12:08] <histo> the0__: sorry *.zip
[12:09] <the0__> how do i navigate to the trash first ?
[12:10] <histo> the0__: unzip ~/.Trash/*.zip -d /usr/share/sword
[12:10] <histo> the0__: ~ is just a shortcut for /home/yourusername
[12:10] <the0__> cannot find or open /home/the0/.Trash/*.zip, /home/the0/.Trash/*.zip.zip or /home/the0/.Trash/*.zip.ZIP.
[12:12] <histo> the0__: Are there .zip files in /home/the0/.Trash   ?
[12:12] <the0__> yes
[12:12] <the0__> well idk about the first two dir
[12:13] <the0__> but definitely .zip in trash
[12:13] <histo> the0__: pastebin the command you are running and all the output
[12:13] <histo> !paste | the0__
[12:15] <tonyyarusso> the0__: Are you just asking how to move multiple directories?  (The ones you got after unzipping stuff before)
[12:15] <marcos_> .
[12:15] <the0__> yes
[12:15] <histo> tonyyarusso: I tried that route. He says no, although I think that's what he really wants.
[12:15] <histo> the0__: I already told you how to move multiple directories
[12:16] <the0__> i think i misunderstood before
[12:16] <EriC^^> the0__: do you mean ~/.local/share/Trash/files ?
[12:16] <tonyyarusso> The mv, cp, and rsync commands all accept multiple source arguments, as well as wildcards.
[12:16] <EriC^^> the files that go into the trash from the filemanager?
[12:16] <the0__> yes
[12:17] <histo> EriC^^: That's the issue
[12:17] <histo> the0__: unzip ~/.local/share/Trash/*.zip -d /usr/share/sword
[12:17] <EriC^^> ^ add a files after ../Trash/
[12:17] <the0__> well this time it said no zipfiles found lol
[12:17] <histo> the0__: sorry typo add files
[12:17] <histo> fml
[12:18] <the0__> add files ?
[12:18] <histo> the0__: unzip ~/.local/share/Trash/files/*.zip -d /usr/share/sword
[12:19]  * histo is not familiar with GUI trash
[12:19] <the0__> caution: filename not matched:  /home/the0/.local/share/Trash/files/TCR.zip
[12:19] <the0__> caution: filename not matched:  /home/the0/.local/share/Trash/files/TDavid.zip
[12:19] <the0__> caution: filename not matched:  /home/the0/.local/share/Trash/files/TFG.zip
[12:19] <the0__> caution: filename not matched:  /home/the0/.local/share/Trash/files/Torrey.zip
[12:19] <the0__> caution: filename not matched:  /home/the0/.local/share/Trash/files/TS1998.zip
[12:20] <histo> the0__: you can't paste output in this channel that's why you were given the link for paste.ubuntu.com
[12:20] <easyOnMe> histo: ok how do I install sshfs
[12:20] <histo> easyOnMe: sudo apt-get install sshfs
[12:20] <easyOnMe> histo: cool
[12:20] <histo> easyOnMe: On YOUR machine not the vps
[12:20] <easyOnMe> histo: yup
[12:21] <histo> easyOnMe: K, just making sure you didn't get confused. All those sshfs commands are for YOUR machine.
[12:21] <easyOnMe> so when I have sshfs on my local machine I can do what you mentioned - mount html from vps and the code from there straight
[12:21] <easyOnMe> histo: yup
[12:21] <histo> easyOnMe: yeap
[12:21] <easyOnMe> histo: cool
[12:21] <easyOnMe> bulls eye
[12:21] <easyOnMe> man
[12:22] <marcos_> .
[12:22] <ExecSlim> Is there a way to find out when I installed certain packages in ubuntu?
[12:22] <the0__> so what did all those filename not matched mean ?
[12:23] <ioria> th20__ try with    unzip    '*.zip'
[12:23] <histo> easyOnMe: if you reboot your machine you'll have to redo the mount.
[12:23] <EriC^^> ExecSlim: software center > history
[12:23] <histo> easyOnMe: It doesn't sound like your ready to setup on demand mounting of that share. Also make sure you create backups of your files.
[12:23] <easyOnMe> histo: sudo sshfs<EMAIL_ADDRESS>/var/www/html/application
[12:23] <easyOnMe> is that the correct command
[12:23] <ioria> the0__ try with    unzip    '*.zip' , i mean with ' '
[12:24] <the0__> im confused ioria
[12:24] <ExecSlim> EriC^^ thanks!
[12:24] <histo> easyOnMe: no sudo needed.  just sshfs user1@ip.of.vps.box:/var/www/html/application some_local_directory      notice the :  after ip
[12:25] <easyOnMe> histo: so like this sshfs user1@<IP_ADDRESS>:/var/www/html/application /home/bob/html
[12:25] <marcos_> .
[12:25] <histo> easyOnMe: yes
[12:26] <ren0v0> hi, ubuntu just shows N/A for "bitrate" for FLAC files, is there a utility to calculate the actual bitrate?
[12:26] <histo> easyOnMe: You could also use your URL in place of your IP if you have that setup to point at your VPS.
[12:26] <the0__> h3h vop;hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhf
[12:26] <histo> ?
[12:26]  * the0__ shoots hisself in head
[12:26] <easyOnMe> histo: ok note with thanks
[12:27] <easyOnMe> but the thing is that everytime I switch my laptop i have to mount again
[12:27] <the0__> still havent moved the files
[12:27] <the0__> and not answering :(
[12:27] <ioria> the0__   unzip ~/.local/share/Trash/files/'*.zip' -d /usr/share/sword ?
[12:27] <histo> easyOnMe: yes. Unless you setup on-demand mounting or mounting on boot.
[12:27] <cfhowlett> ren0v0, open a terminal: file filename.flac
[12:29] <ren0v0> cfhowlett, doesn't show bitrate
[12:29] <valentinmu> hello everyone. i encountered live usb(dvd) 14.04 hanging during boot process, while 12.04 boots ok. when i removed "quiet splash" from boot options i saw that it hangs on "Configuring system"
[12:29] <valentinmu> i tried both 32/64 versions
[12:29] <valentinmu> 15.04 works the same
[12:30] <histo> !nomodeset | valentinmu Give this a try
[12:30] <cfhowlett> ren0v0, it should.  I'll see if I can find a .flac to test.  see this .mp3
[12:30] <cfhowlett> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11866396/
[12:30] <ren0v0> cfhowlett, try it with FLAC, doesn't work
[12:31] <the0__> 107 archives were successfully processed.
[12:31] <the0__>  thank you ioria
[12:31] <ren0v0> i found a nice ulitility though "medainfo"  this works and shows it
[12:31] <easyOnMe> histo: how to do mounting on boot
[12:31] <ioria> the0__   np
[12:33] <cfhowlett> ren0v0, 16bit unless I'm reading the output wrong
[12:33] <ren0v0> not the same thing as bitrate cfhowlett
[12:34] <cfhowlett> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11866404/
[12:34] <the0_> worked like a charm you da best
[12:34]  * the0_ shoots easyonme
[12:35] <ioria> ^_^
[12:35] <the0__> ioria can you explain why yours worked and his didn't ?
[12:35] <histo> easyOnMe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS#Command-line_Usage
[12:36] <histo> easyOnMe: read the whole section
[12:36] <ioria> expansion
[12:36] <easyOnMe> histo: thanks
[12:36] <the0__>  unzip ~/.local/share/Trash/files/'*.zip' -d /usr/share/sword ?
[12:36] <the0__> im too noob
[12:36] <histo> the0__: the way bash expanded the *.zip was no beuno
[12:36] <histo> s/beuno/bueno/
[12:37] <ioria> the0__   "the shell expands out wildcard characters automatically, but  doesn’t mean that programs can’t as well"
[12:37] <the0__> so it was the ' ' that made the difference
[12:37] <ioria> yep
[12:38] <ioria> the0__   https://chrisjean.com/unzip-multiple-files-from-linux-command-line/
[12:38] <the0__> would it be good practice to always use ' ' with wild cards or no ?
[12:38] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[12:38] <ioria> the0__   well, i think it's command related
[12:38] <the0__> ah ok
[12:39] <marcos_> .
[12:39] <histo> unzip should be able to handle file(s)  though .
[12:40] <marcos_> -
[12:41] <marcos_> .
[12:44] <the0__> so maybe its because of where it was located then ?
[12:44] <the0__> also where did you guys learn this stuff ?
[12:45] <ioria> the0__ try man unzip
[12:45] <paul_> Would someone please know how to import "themes" like these ones (http://tmtheme-editor.herokuapp.com) in the gnome terminal ?
[12:45] <the0__> what ?
[12:46] <the0__> oh and how do i get the !pastebinit to work ?
[12:47] <cfhowlett> the0_, install it first, the configure the .pastebinit.xml file to point to your preferred paste provider, i.e. ubuntu.paste.com
[12:47] <cfhowlett> errr. paste.ubuntu.com
[12:47] <the0__> so sudo apt-get pastebin ?
[12:47] <cfhowlett> sudo apt-get INSTALL pastebinit
[12:47] <cfhowlett> !paste | the0_
[12:49] <the0__> ok it paused at setting up pastebinit
[12:52] <marcos_> a
[12:52] <the0__> how do i configure the pastebinit.xml
[12:55] <anttal> izabera> adding more challenge to my mysql question, i want to every line to my sql output array to be variable to script
[12:55] <anttal> 1 by 1
[12:55] <anttal> is there ez way or just use loop?
[12:55] <cfhowlett> the0_, open it in gedit and edit away
[12:55] <the0_> i dont see anything that says .xml in the pastebin dir ?
[12:56] <cfhowlett> the0_, look in your /home directory for .pastebinit.xml
[12:56] <anttal> wrong chat windows
[12:56] <anttal> lol
[12:56] <cfhowlett> the0_, actually, if you've not yet fired up pastebinit, it might not be created yet. do a test run in your terminal: free | pastebinit
[12:57] <the0_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/11866519/
[12:57] <cfhowlett> the0_, nice.  you happy with it?
[12:58] <the0_> i didnt find any .xml file but as long as yall can see it , i guess it don't matter
[12:58] <easyOnMe> ok thanks people
[12:58] <easyOnMe> histo thanks so much
[12:58] <easyOnMe> bye
[13:07] <carrera> Greetings!  :-)
[13:09] <carrera> I just installed Ubuntu Mate 15.04 and I have no sound.  I installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras to no avail
[13:10] <cfhowlett> !audio | carrera
[13:11] <carrera> cfhowlett, thanks  :)
[13:11] <cfhowlett> carrera, happy2help!
[13:11] <carrera> cfhowlett, the funny thing is that I had sound this AM when I was watching an mp4 video on VLC
[13:12] <cfhowlett> carrera, well, VLC is a bit different from other media players.  self contained with its own codecs.
[13:13] <carrera> cfhowlett, at some point, I installed audacious.  I wonder if that could have done it
[13:13] <cfhowlett> kind of the Swiss army knife of players
[13:13] <cfhowlett> carrera, are you saying vlc no longer works?  also, NO sound or just no media sounds?  How about system indicator sounds.
[13:13] <carrera> cfhowlett, ah, okay but I don't even have sound when I play a clip on VLC
[13:14] <cfhowlett> carrera, I'd guess that you disabled your speakers.  try this: headphones.
[13:14] <carrera> cfhowlett, nothing. not even the test sounds
[13:14] <cfhowlett> and phones?
[13:15] <carrera> cfhowlett, I first noticed that I didn't have sound when my speakers were connected
[13:16] <moobase> https://i.stack.imgur.com/hG8Ed.png
[13:16] <moobase> does anyone know what calculator that is?
[13:17] <EriC^^> moobase: standard ubuntu calc
[13:32] <carrera> cfhowlett, Under Sound Preferences -> Hardware tab: Built-in Audio is selected.  When I plugged in my speakers, Analog Stereo Duplex was automatically selected.  The speaker test for both left and right speakers work.  I unplugged the external speakers and the test worked with the built-in speakers too.
[13:33] <carrera> cfhowlett, but I still can NOT play any sound through neither Audacious nor VLC
[13:33] <cfhowlett> carrera, too weird for me, I'm afraid.  No idea.  sorry.
[13:34] <carrera> cfhowlett, thanks anyway
[13:34] <EriC^^> carrera: try pavucontrol
[13:34] <EriC^^> and alsamixer]
[13:35] <carrera> EriC^^, thanks, will do
[13:35] <carrera> EriC^^, do I have to run alsamixer as root?
[13:35] <EriC^^> no
[13:36] <RonWhoCares> How can I find out what "version" of yuicompressor I have installed?  I am in the section "Creating a FileWatcher" Step # 3 @ https://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/help/minifying-css.html
[13:41] <rootware> sdf
[13:42] <rootware> i say   HI
[13:44] <cfhowlett> rootware, ask your ubuntu questions.  chitchat/socializing in other channels
[13:45] <g105b> I have a laptop with multitouch trackpad, how do I trigger a keyboard combination when I swipe in a direction with three fingers?
[13:46] <rainbowwarrior> hello I am using Ubuntu 15.04 and it thinks my hard drive is full when it ain't how can I fix this please ?
[13:46] <EriC^> rainbowwarrior: why do you say that?
[13:46] <cfhowlett> rainbowwarrior, do this terminal command : df -H
[13:47] <rainbowwarrior> EriC^ , because it keeps saying low hd space
[13:47] <rainbowwarrior> cfhowlett :- http://pastebin.com/ZXvDduW0
[13:48] <EriC^> rainbowwarrior: your root filesystem is full
[13:48] <cfhowlett> rainbowwarrior, eh.  can't see that one in China.  I'd suspect you haven't cleaned out your kernels in some time and that partition is full.  it happens frequently
[13:49] <EriC^> cfhowlett: /dev/sda6        41G   38G  365M 100% /
[13:49] <cfhowlett> EriC^, yep.
[13:49] <cfhowlett> sudo apt-get autoremove MIGHT clean things up, but more likely not
[13:49] <rainbowwarrior> ok thank you EriC^ and cfhowlett
[13:49] <cfhowlett> http://www.unixmen.com/how-to-uninstall-the-old-kernels-in-ubuntu/
[13:50] <rainbowwarrior> cfhowlett, thank you
[13:50] <cfhowlett> rainbowwarrior, happy2help!
[13:52] <rainbowwarrior> cfhowlett what one should i delete please ? :- http://pastebin.com/cEPZTr6C
[13:53] <cfhowlett> rainbowwarrior, pastebin.com blocked in China. if you gedit your /home/pastebinit.xml    you can select a different paste: ubuntu.paste.com for example.  if you've old kernels, save the most recent TWO
[13:55] <rainbowwarrior> cfhowlett : http://paste.ubuntu.com/11866766/
[13:55] <rainbowwarrior> and thank you
[13:56] <cfhowlett> rainbowwarrior, run df -h | pastebinit
[13:57] <rainbowwarrior> cfhowlett :- http://paste.ubuntu.com/11866776/
[13:57] <rainbowwarrior> i think its the generic one I need to delete
[13:58] <cfhowlett> rainbowwarrior, I'm guessing that /dev/sda6 is your /home and data?  if so = full.  time for housecleaning.  your problem is not old kernels.
[13:59] <rainbowwarrior> cfhowlett hmm but there is hardly anything on my hd as its a new laptop hp 455 G2 , it was suppose to be a 1TB hard drive, but looks like its only 40GB as I have no other o/s etc on this laptop
[14:00] <EriC^> rainbowwarrior: type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[14:00] <carrera> cfhowlett, EriC^ , Solved.   I just turned off my  High Def Audio Controller.  The funny thing is that when I turned it back on, I still have sound from Audacious.
[14:00] <carrera> cfhowlett, EriC^,  thanks for your help.   :-)
[14:00] <cfhowlett> carrera, doh!  right, I should have thought of that!
[14:00] <carrera> lol
[14:00] <rainbowwarrior> cfhowlett :- http://termbin.com/5rkm
[14:01] <rainbowwarrior> EriC^ i meant sorry cfhowlett :- http://termbin.com/5rkm
[14:01] <EriC^> rainbowwarrior: sda5 isn't being used!
[14:01] <carrera> cfhowlett, but I changed eh settings from off to a few different HDMI ouputs and I still get sound!
[14:01] <carrera> s/eh/the
[14:02] <EriC^> rainbowwarrior: it's 946gb
[14:02] <rainbowwarrior> EriC^ oh hmm
[14:02] <EriC^> type cat /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999
[14:02] <EriC^> you can use it as a /home partition
[14:03] <rainbowwarrior> EriC^, :- http://termbin.com/q13l
[14:03] <EriC^> rainbowwarrior: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt

[14:49] <Faux> https://paste.debian.net/281598/ ext4 has segfaulted for /boot during an update-grub, and now update-grub can't succeed.    Is there anything I can do or do I have to reboot, manually boot and then fix it?
[14:50] <EriC^^> Faux: lsof | grep /boot maybe?
[14:50] <EriC^^> what's holding it open?
[14:50] <Faux> A zombie grubenv from the last thing (scroll down the paste).
[14:58] <Faux> Looks like it didn't manage to damage /boot anyway!  Woo remount-ro saves the day.
[14:59] <carrera> cfhowlett, in the process of fixing my sound, I installed ubuntu-restricted-extras.  Do you normally install that package?
[15:00] <cfhowlett> carrera, always
[15:00] <carrera> cfhowlett, anything else I should install?
[15:00] <cfhowlett> carrera, I enable the firewall.  YMMV
[15:00] <carrera> YMMV?
[15:01] <EriC^^> your mileage may vary
[15:01] <carrera> thanks EriC^^
[15:01] <cfhowlett> !ymmv | carrera
[15:02]  * EriC^^ dont wanna be that guy.. but
[15:02] <EriC^^> !wfm
[15:02] <carrera> how about zeitgeist.  I did a "ps -ef | grep zeit" but didn't see anything.  I thought it ran on Ubuntu
[15:02] <EriC^^> !fml
[15:04] <OerHeks> carrera, go into systemsettings > security & privacy, there you will find the options for zeitgeist
[15:05] <carrera> I'm running Ubuntu Mate 15.04
[15:05] <OerHeks> oh, not sure zeitgeist is running there.
[15:09] <carrera> OerHeks, when I was running Xubuntu 15.04, I looked at the package ubuntu-mate-desktop and at the end of the list of packages to be installed was non other than zeitgeist-common!
[15:10] <renebarbosa> w
[15:10] <carrera> OerHeks, but not I don't see any zeitgeist procs running on my system
[15:10] <OerHeks> carrera, good to know, but i have no experience with mate-desktop, sorry
[15:11] <carrera> OerHeks, thanks anyway
[15:11] <carrera> OerHeks, does "ps -ef | grep zeit" show any zeitgeist procs running on regular Ubuntu systems?
[15:12] <OerHeks> carrera, yes
[15:12] <carrera> OerHeks, then chances are it's not running on my system
[15:14] <ethang> guys, I need help fixing my java installation.  Any ideas
[15:14] <cfhowlett> !java | ethang
[15:15] <ethang> !java | ethang
[15:17] <ethang> how do I do that, #ubotto
[15:17] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java ethang read the link
[15:18] <OerHeks> OpenJDK should be fine.
[15:33] <cofo> Hi
[15:33] <cofo> Is there anyone here?
[15:33] <cofo> I have permission denied because I tried to execute a file and i'm running live cd ubuntu
[15:34] <OerHeks> hi cofo, what file?
[15:34] <cofo> a.out by program i wrote in c
[15:34] <ubuntuser> The live CD is mainly only for testing Ubuntu before installing it. And most likely, your CD is read only, so it is impossible to write your change to it
[15:35] <cofo> Ah?
[15:35] <cofo> I just want to execute hello world
[15:35] <Anthaas> Hi guys, I am looking to set up my computer on Ubuntu Desktop, but use it as a multi-tool server. Is this feasible and easy?
[15:35] <EriC^^> cofo: you ran gcc yourprogram.c
[15:35] <EriC^^> cofo: type ./a.out to run it
[15:35] <cofo> It gave me permission denied
[15:36] <EriC^^> type ls -l a.out
[15:36] <Anthaas> i.e. I'd like to run it as a web server, an XBMC server, a dev server (java, python, etc)
[15:36] <cofo> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/9EcpV8VS/
[15:36] <ubuntuser> Do chmod +x
[15:36] <cofo> i did
[15:36] <EriC^^> cofo: ls -l a.out
[15:36] <OerHeks> Anthaas, sure, lots of IDE's to install, XBMC is now Kodi.
[15:36] <cofo> -rw------- 1 ubuntu ubuntu 8756 Jul 12 18:21 a.out
[15:37] <EriC^^> cofo: it's not +x
[15:37] <EriC^^> cofo: type chmod +x a.out
[15:37] <OerHeks> x=eXecute
[15:37] <cofo> i did
[15:37] <EriC^^> nope
[15:38] <cofo> i wrote that
[15:38] <EriC^^> just now?
[15:38] <cofo> before
[15:38] <cofo> even in codeblocks it no works
[15:38] <EriC^^> type it again, chmod +x a.out && ls -l a.out
[15:39] <cofo> -rw------- 1 ubuntu ubuntu 8756 Jul 12 18:38 a.out
[15:39] <cofo> i removed the file and then compile with gcc
[15:39] <EriC^^> cofo: when you type chmod +x a.out nothing happens?
[15:39] <cofo> yep
[15:40] <EriC^^> it's odd you can't change the permissions
[15:40] <cofo> yep
[15:40] <EriC^^> is it 64bit?
[15:40] <OerHeks> cofo,  where is that file, on an USB device/fat32/ntfs ?
[15:40] <cofo> it's on windows8 hdd
[15:40] <cofo> media/ubuntu/windows8_OS
[15:40] <EriC^^> oh,
[15:40] <OerHeks> ohhh  that is not posix, copy it into your live environment
[15:41] <EriC^^> copy it to .. yeh ^
[15:41] <EriC^^> yeah*
[15:41] <cofo> why
[15:41] <EriC^^> ntfs doesn't hold permissions
[15:41] <cofo> Why?
[15:41] <EriC^^> cause the filesystem wasn't made to hold them
[15:41] <cofo> I still don't understand why?
[15:41] <EriC^^> cause windows doesn't need them
[15:42] <cofo> anyway my program not work =D
[15:42] <EriC^^> *use
[15:42] <EriC^^> cofo: you need to copy it to your ubuntu's live session or you can mount the ntfs with the permissions you want
[15:42] <cofo> That's why I couldn't download steam games on that?
[15:42] <EriC^^> cofo: type mount | nc termbin.com 9999
[15:43] <Anthaas> OerHeks: Sorry, got disconnected, I would quite like to do most of the stuff through command line, but have a GUI when I want.
[15:43] <cofo> could it make any bad to my hdd?
[15:43] <Anthaas> The machine will be in a remote location too
[15:43] <EriC^^> cofo: no
[15:43] <cofo> termbin?
[15:43] <EriC^^> cofo: it will mount it with fake permissions, they'll disappear the next time you mount
[15:43] <EriC^^> cofo: it's a pastebin site
[15:43] <cofo> i see
[15:44] <cofo> I will pas
[15:44] <cofo> pass*
[15:44] <OerHeks> Anthaas, i would test it out with a server next to me, easier to fix when you lock yourself out.
[15:44] <cofo> Thank you
[15:44] <Anthaas> OerHeks: Yeah, I am at the server right now - at my parents' house - but I am a Uni student, so spend most of the year away.
[15:47] <OerHeks> Anthaas, good start https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/
[15:48] <Anthaas> OerHeks: Oooh, should I install Ubuntu server, not Ubuntu Desktop?
[15:48] <OerHeks> Anthaas, no, you can turn any desktop in a machine that gives a 'service'
[15:49] <OerHeks> still,  the guide is valid for you
[15:49] <EriC^^> cofo: the fake permission won't be on it, just in the kernel
[15:49] <Anthaas> Ahhh thats great then
[15:49] <Anthaas> All those are valid for Ubuntu Desktop? OerHeks
[15:49] <cofo> I see
[15:49] <EriC^^> cofo: just copy the file to your /home/ubuntu dir and do chmod +x on it there if you want
[15:49] <OerHeks> Anthaas, jups
[15:49] <cofo> But anyway I don't wanna do that now I will be do the copy...
[15:49] <cofo> the black job
[15:50] <Anthaas> Perfect

[16:10] <adekto> hey i just installed ubuntu and its not finding any drivers for my gpu
[16:11] <OerHeks> adekto, for what GPU exactly? terminal: lspci | grep VGA
[16:11] <adekto> nvidea gtx970
[16:12] <bekks> adekto: And which Ubuntu exactly?
[16:12] <adekto> current
[16:12] <adekto> the one from the site
[16:12] <adekto> idk
[16:12] <OerHeks> gt 970 is supporte by the nvidia 343.22 and up
[16:12] <bekks> adekto: Whats the outcome of "cat /etc/issue"?
[16:13] <adekto> Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS \n \l
[16:14] <zaggynl> I added the xorg-edgers ppa for nvidia driver
[16:15] <adekto> what do i do? i tryed to do it by force befor in terminal but that broke the hole system so i had to re install the os
[16:16] <foobar12> anyone know what actually checks for ~/.ecryptfs/auto-mount and ~/.ecryptfs/auto-unmount and reads ~/.ecryptfs/Private.mnt for automatically mounting/unmounting the encrypted home folder? trying to set up an additional encrypted folder on a separate drive for a user, and I've got everything but the automatic mount/unmount on login/logout working (which I'd prefer to work through the same process as the home folder)
[16:16] <zaggynl> adekto: sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[16:17] <adekto> yea that coused my keybourd and mouse to not work on login
[16:17] <adekto> but il try it again
[16:17] <zaggynl> er
[16:17] <zaggynl> what if you use the proprietary driver in ubuntu?
[16:18] <adekto> what driver?
[16:18] <zaggynl> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/drivers
[16:19] <OerHeks> i am not sure this works for 14.04 : sudo ubuntu-drivers devices
[16:19] <adekto> its not showing any
[16:19] <schockley> trying to get samba on 14.04 to share a printer. total fail. I've tried everything: testparm, smbtree does not list the printer. I've tried all the usual links. Totally stumped
[16:19] <zaggynl> the keyboard/mouse thing is a known issue apparently
[16:20] <schockley> I copied a smb.conf from a 14.04 that successfully shares the same printers. Still no go
[16:20] <schockley> no firewall. ufw is disabled
[16:20] <zaggynl> adekto: do you have a bluetooth connected keyboard/mouse?
[16:20] <adekto> no

[16:57] <thatkid_> Hello, can anybody help me to split a vcf file into multiple one?
[17:00] <OerHeks> !info vcftools
[17:00] <patero> I wish
[17:01] <samphippen> where would I look in a server's logs to determine when it was last powered off and powered on?
[17:01] <alexus1212u> hey, im trying to move from one SSD to another SSD, but im stuck. i think its because i use cryptsetup, ecryptfs and moved from btrfs to ext4. i have grub running, but its not booting, i get an mdadm error (but i dont use raid, maybe because of lvm)? any ideads appreciated
[17:04] <OerHeks> samphippen, " last reboot | head -1 "
[17:05] <OerHeks> thatkid_, i found vcftools, but no example to split, just merge
[17:05] <gl_> privet
[17:06] <gl_> а че тут делаете?
[17:06] <gl_> где здесь арена
[17:06] <OerHeks> alexus1212u, moving to an other ssd is one thing, changing to btrfs is unusual.
[17:06] <OerHeks> with encryption*
[17:07] <gl_> join #arena
[17:07] <alexus1212u> OerHeks: i went from btrfs to ext4. i thought if i use a tar of the OS i can simply do that (changed mtag to ext4)
[17:07] <gl_> !join #arena
[17:07] <gl_> #arena
[17:07] <alexus1212u> *fstab, sorry been sitting too long on this
[17:08] <OerHeks> alexus1212u, cannot help you there :-(
[17:08] <alexus1212u> no worries, thanks for trying :)
[17:10] <Whitelion> yo anyone knows a IRC channel for RoseGarden?
[17:11] <xangua> !alis | Whitelion
[17:12] <tekku> hi guys
[17:12] <tekku> my drive needs a manual fsck, and at boot grub is asking for the system password or Ctrl+D to continue
[17:12] <tekku> the thing is
[17:13] <tekku> the system password contains # (hash/pound symbol)
[17:13] <tekku> which i can't seem to find on the keyboard layout that grub is expecting
[17:13] <tekku> so my question is
[17:13] <tekku> 1. where is it
[17:13] <tekku> 2. the grub documentation refers to setting a keyboard layout, but gives no examples or accepted inputs
[17:13] <tekku> KEYBOARDTYPE=kbtype
[17:15] <tekku> or laternatively
[17:15] <tekku> is there a kernel option that allows me to bypass the forced fsck
[17:15] <tekku> so i can boot system, login, change root pass, reboot, fsck
[17:16] <tekku> fastboot is enough?
[17:17] <alexus1212u> SHIFT 2
[17:17] <alexus1212u> no
[17:17] <alexus1212u> SHOFT 3
[17:17] <tekku> hmm, fastboot no longer works
[17:17] <tekku> shift 3 has no output at all
[17:17] <tekku> and alt 3
[17:17] <tekku> i think tried shift 3
[17:17] <tekku> hash/pound outputs a 3 oddly
[17:17] <tekku> i use a UK keyboard
[17:17] <OerHeks> tekku, easy on the enter please
[17:18] <tekku> ok, well will KEYBOARDTYPE=gb  make things anymore optimistic? I don't know what keyboard type grub is defaulting to? just "pc" ?
[17:20] <mojtaba> Hi, Is there anyway of listing directories that contain e.g. just pictures?
[17:21] <mojtaba> Or have pictures
[17:21] <tekku> mojtaba, you could glob on known extensions
[17:21] <tekku> ls */*.png
[17:21] <tekku> or ls */* and pipe to grep o do the same
[17:21] <mojtaba> tekku: I just wnat to list directory names.
[17:24] <alexus1212u> find / -iname *.jpg
[17:28] <tekku> fast boot did the trick in the end
[17:29] <habanany> hey fellows, i have a question, i noticed that "paste.ubuntu.com" is labeled as "pastebin" does that mean i can use pastebin.org in this irc or "ubuntu pastebin" is the only acpeted, bear with my poor grammar and thanks for your attention
[17:29] <MonkeyDust> habanany  you can use any pastebin you want
[17:30] <OerHeks> habanany, you are free to use pastebin.com, but be aware! not all countries allow pastebin.com, paste.ubuntu.com is allowed everywhere AFAIK
[17:30] <Seylerius> Ubuntu live discs come with lspci and lsusb, right?

[17:30] <vas> Hey Guys - I keep having a random system crash. I am running Ubuntu 14 and Gnome 3, but my monitors.xml file keepts getting deleted (randomly, when I'm away from my computer, so I think it may be a hibernation issue) and I have to reset my monitors config, and then move all my windows back to the right desktops.. very annoying because I develop so I have a billion windows always open.... I tossed my crash logs on my server vkaloidis.com/mo
[17:30] <vas> nitors-crash.tar.gz
[17:30] <Seylerius> Thanks.
[17:31] <TheCubeLord> hi

[17:32] <lotuspsychje> TheCubeLord: welcome, what can we do for you?
[17:32] <vas> And thanks in advance :-)
[17:38] <Cerealkiller> Hello,i have some trouble with my apache
[17:39] <Cerealkiller> Until last night, localhost worked great,but now localhost redirects me to localhost/index.html (a non existent file,so i get a 404) i want it to show the root (/var/www/html) where i have my folders with different sites
[17:39] <rtreleaven> Cerealkiller what is the matter with your apache
[17:39] <rtreleaven> so what changed last night?
[17:40] <Cerealkiller> <IP_ADDRESS> works,and does just that
[17:40] <Cerealkiller> Last night i think what might have created this is that i changed ownership of a file i belive
[17:40] <rtreleaven> what file
[17:40] <Cerealkiller> i tried fixing a problem that i got a 403 in my console when adding a favicon
[17:40] <rtreleaven> ?
[17:40] <Cerealkiller> I don't actually seem to remember
[17:41] <Cerealkiller> I tried re-installing apache but with no luck
[17:41] <rtreleaven> use the history command to see if that reminds you
[17:41] <Guest70804> did you remove apache first or reinstall on top of it?
[17:41] <Cerealkiller> purged apache then re-installed
[17:42] <rtreleaven> if <IP_ADDRESS> works and localhost does not then I have to wonder what localhost resolves to
[17:42] <Guest70804> what kind of files were you working on permissions?
[17:42] <Cerealkiller> Let me check the history
[17:43] <habanany> help please http://paste.ubuntu.com/11867926/
[17:43] <Cerealkiller> Doesn't really give me any clue
[17:43] <Cerealkiller> So probably ownership of a file didn't do that
[17:43] <Cerealkiller> also, i remember accidentaly creating a folder calling it "index.html" in the /var/www/html
[17:44] <Guest70804> and you removed it?
[17:44] <Cerealkiller> Yes
[17:44] <Meerkat> Hello. I wanna add a PGP key to a server but seahorse wont let me add "pgp.mit.edu". The OK button is grey.
[17:45] <Cerealkiller> adding it doesn't help either,since i still get a 403
[17:45] <Cerealkiller> i mean,adding a file called index.html
[17:45] <rtreleaven> Cerealkiller what does localhost resolve to?
[17:45] <Cerealkiller> rtreleaven, I don't understand that question
[17:45] <Guest70804> still get a 403 with file index.html present?
[17:45] <rtreleaven> nslookup localhost
[17:45] <Cerealkiller> yes
[17:46] <Cerealkiller> rtreleaven, Name:	localhost
[17:46] <Cerealkiller> Address: <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:46] <rtreleaven> then both should work.
[17:46] <Cerealkiller> It's really odd
[17:47] <rtreleaven> Is your browser doing something unexpected
[17:47] <rtreleaven> ?
[17:47] <Cerealkiller> Not really
[17:47] <ioria> Cerealkiller, what's in the index.html ?
[17:47] <rtreleaven> try another browser
[17:47] <Cerealkiller> let me try another browser
[17:47] <Cerealkiller> ioria, There is no index.html file
[17:47] <Guest70804> did you change owner of the folder?
[17:47] <Cerealkiller> Ok,seems like chrome is the problem
[17:47] <rtreleaven> bingo
[17:47] <Cerealkiller> localhost is working in mozilla
[17:48] <Cerealkiller> oh god,i've been struggling with this thing since last night
[17:49] <Cerealkiller> now ,could you guys help me even if it is not a problem with my apache?
[17:49] <rtreleaven> what kind of help would you like?
[17:49] <Cerealkiller> I don't recall doing anything wrong last night
[17:49] <Cerealkiller> To get localhost working on chrome lol
[17:49] <Cerealkiller> should i delete the cache?
[17:49] <rtreleaven> yes
[17:50] <Cerealkiller> just a sec
[17:52] <Cerealkiller> Thanks for your help guys,i narrowed it to chrome,deleted the cache and sure enough,it's working!
[17:54] <rtreleaven> I narrowed it to chrome
[17:54] <Cerealkiller> rtreleaven, Yes,you did,thanks
[17:54] <rtreleaven> your welcome
[17:54] <Cerealkiller> cy
[17:54] <Cerealkiller> cya*

[18:17] <nmatrix9> I finally got my nvidia drivers working and I managed to resolve the missing cursor issue!
[18:17] <nmatrix9> I think it's time we celebrate
[18:18] <lotuspsychje> nmatrix9: share us how
[18:21] <nmatrix9> lotuspsychje, 3 steps actually, 1. I had to upgrade my kernel to 3.19 2. I ran the command "gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.cursor active false" in a terminal for the missing cursor issue in Xubuntu and then 3. YOU MUST REMOVE bumblebee from your repository if not you will fsck yourself over a gazillion times!  Then install the xorg-edge repository and then install your nvidia driver nvidia-346
[18:22] <TheCubeLord> i am using kiwiirc :)
[18:22] <lotuspsychje> nmatrix9: bumblebee is outdated, do you have an optimus card?
[18:22] <nmatrix9> lotuspsychje, for step number 2. I did a full reboot
[18:22] <TheCubeLord> Test
[18:23] <lotuspsychje> !test | TheCubeLord
[18:23] <TheCubeLord> bots?
[18:23] <TheCubeLord> how!
[18:23] <nmatrix9> lotuspsychje, I have Geforce GTX 550 Ti
[18:23] <TheCubeLord> How to bots
[18:24] <TheCubeLord> !test
[18:24] <lotuspsychje> TheCubeLord: this is an ubuntu support channel, please only type here when you have a question
[18:24] <TheCubeLord> ok
[18:25] <lotuspsychje> nmatrix9: ok tnx for feedback
[18:26] <nmatrix9> lotuspsychje, mind you I did all this from 14.04
[18:27] <symbiosis> Does anyone know the significance of the numbers in the symbolic links in the rcS.d directory?  The files are all of the form Sxx-somename.
[18:28] <lotuspsychje> symbiosis: can you tell us what your trying to do?
[18:29] <chmodi> cd /home permission denied
[18:29] <symbiosis> I am trying to get the WPA supplicant rule to run at boot time.  An example in the link above was to create a link to a wpa launch script in /etc/init.d.
[18:29] <MonkeyDust> symbiosis  methinks the S means Symbolic link
[18:29] <symbiosis> lotuspsychje: at the end of the day, I am just trying to get my wireless network to connect when the system boots.
[18:30] <lotuspsychje> symbiosis: wireless network should boot automaticly?
[18:30] <symbiosis> MonkeyDust: Per the README file in the rcS.d directory, it indicates that the file is to be executed at system boot
[18:31] <symbiosis> lotuspsychje: My wired ethernet does, but not my wireless.  I have to manually run the wpa_supplicant rules to get it to connect.  Works fine, but just trying to have it done automatically.
[18:31] <lotuspsychje> symbiosis: ubuntu version?
[18:31] <MonkeyDust> symbiosis  yes, there's also rc1, rc2 etc
[18:31] <symbiosis> lotuspsychje: 14.04, but for the sake of full disclosure, this is a Kodi system
[18:32] <symbiosis> lotuspsychje: this is Kodi 15.0
[18:32] <MonkeyDust> symbiosis  the README explains what it is
[18:33] <ioria> chmodi   can you paste the output of ls -l /  ?

[18:39] <chmodi> ioria: it's on another computer, so i have to type it here
[18:40] <ioria> chmodi   home should be drwxr-xr-x
[18:41] <ioria> chmodi  and ls -l /home ?
[18:41] <chmodi> thats it
[18:42] <chmodi> ioria: i got cannot access /home/user Permission denied cannot access /home/lost+found Permission denied
[18:43] <ioria> chmodi  and with sudo ?
[18:44] <chmodi> ioria: now i set chmod 755 /home and seems it's solved :selffacepalm:
[18:44] <ioria> chmodi  ok
[18:44] <chmodi> thanks ioria :)
[18:45] <ioria> chmodi  you're welcome
[19:22] <sync0pate> anyone know if there's a way to make the "rename" command create new dirs?
[19:23] <bekks> sync0pate: you can rename a directory, too.
[19:23] <sync0pate> bekks, I want to create new dirs
[19:23] <nicomachus> mkdir?
[19:23] <bekks> sync0pate: Then use mkdir
[19:23] <sync0pate> no but with the rename command
[19:23] <sync0pate> batch
[19:24] <sync0pate> I have a ton of files, for example march.doc, march.xls, march.txt
[19:24] <bekks> The ranme command renames existing objects.
[19:24] <bekks> *rename
[19:24] <sync0pate> and I want them all to be march/abc.doc, march/abc.xls, march/abc.txt
[19:24] <bekks> The mkdir command creates new directories. One job, one tool.
[19:24] <aeon-ltd> mv?
[19:25] <sync0pate> this is what I have: rename s/'^(.+)\.'/'$1\/$1\.'/ *
[19:25] <sync0pate> but doesn't work, because the dirs need creating
[19:25] <sync0pate> I think
[19:26] <bekks> sync0pate: So create them using mkdir.
[19:26] <sync0pate> manually? there's loads..
[19:26] <sync0pate> I was wondering if there was a way to do it more easily.
[19:27] <bekks> Script it.
[19:27] <sync0pate> not a clue where to start with bash scripting
[19:27] <bekks> mkdir $1 ? :)
[19:27] <bekks> You already used variables, for the rename command.
[19:27] <sync0pate> I know regex..
[19:28] <sync0pate> I know programming
[19:28] <sync0pate> I don't know shell scripting
[19:28] <alexus1212u> OerHeks: i finally made it, but got rif off cryptsetup, only ecryptfs left
[19:31] <m82labs> Anyone in here able to suggest to best method to encrypt a directory on my mail server? I want to encrypt the directory where my mail resides. My initial though was an encrypted loopback filesystem. Any reason that is a bad idea?

[19:33] <Lee_> Hey
[19:33] <jumble_e_whopper> new install of lubuntu 14.04, tried to run POL/Wine game now resolution is stuck at 800x600 and additional drivers window has 'continue using a manually installed driver' option selected and can't change it. any help please?
[19:35] <Lee_> I've just upgraded to 15.04 and my filesystem has become read only, taking my website and VPN down with it! Anyone know why this has happened and how I could fix it? I think the UUID may be wrong
[19:35] <Lee_> http://askubuntu.com/q/647527/99155
[19:36] <bubbasaures> Lee_, You did this without making images off any of this?
[19:36] <mumersidd> hi every one
[19:41] <swahili> I'm getting this error npm ERR! nospc and is related to insufficient space on your system.
[19:41] <swahili> But I still have available space
[19:41] <swahili> What partition should I look for available space ? Any tips please ? Thanks!
[19:42] <bubbasaures> Lee_, Looks like your waiting for some service from D Ocean, are we like jumping the gun here?
[19:43] <bubbasaures> swaagie, You terminal only, any gui?
[19:43] <bubbasaures> swaagie, Sorry, bad type
[19:44] <bubbasaures> swahili, You terminal only, any gui?
[19:44] <swahili> bubbasaures: thanks for looking. I can use the gui or terminal
[19:44] <bubbasaures> swaagie, A screenshot of gparted would be great.
[19:44] <Lee_> @bubbasaures they've taken out the recover disk, I've booted back into the normal OS and its still read only. Will likely need to boot back into recovery so I can write changez
[19:46] <bubbasaures> Lee_, Cool, you do have a uuid issue as the info I'm assuming is accurate shows, how that happened is a mystery for sure. The ramification in this context I'm not sure.
[19:47] <bubbasaures> Lee_, You might try #ubuntu-server if you think appropriate.
[19:50] <swahili> bubbasaures: a screenshot http://oi61.tinypic.com/2uokqo4.jpg
[19:50] <Lee_> @bubbasaures I think it must be, but I honestly have no idea
[19:50] <Lee_> @bubbasaures OK, I'll try there
[19:50] <nicomachus> Lee_: you don't need an @ on irc
[19:51] <Lee_> Oh haha
[19:51] <nicomachus> just type the name. you can actually just type the first few letters and then hit TAB to autocomplete, even.
[19:51] <Lee_> Don't use it often, thanks haha
[19:51] <nicomachus> np
[19:51] <swahili> I don't know in which partition my system files are being saved otherwise I'd use the available space
[19:51] <Lee_> I'm on my phone at the moment, saw this link in the sidebar on reddit :)
[19:52] <gawd> Ahoy !!
[19:53] <Lee_> bubbasaures do you think I could just change a UUID and fix it?
[19:53] <bubbasaures> swahili, YOu have 3 primary partition and an extened with logicals, that is the max primaries you can have. All you can do as is is move sda4 and extend the sda3 the extanded and add logicals. However you have partitions out of order left to right, this as is can cause issues.
[19:54] <bubbasaures> Lee_, No Idea really, none of that I've done, I'm working from knowing general info.
[19:55] <Lee_> Okay haha, thanks anyway! :)
[19:55] <foobar12> anyone know if there are plans to update wiki.ubuntu.com to use a non-broken version of tls anytime soon? I've got broken/weak ciphers and protocols disabled in my primary browser, and having to switch browsers is annoying
[19:55] <swahili> bubbasaures: not sure I understood.  need to extend sda3 and add logicals ? Also don't know what to do about moving the sd4, what do you mean move ?
[19:55] <bubbasaures> swahili, You can see from gparted though how full the partitions are.
[19:56] <swahili> bubbasaures: yeah, I've installed ubuntu 3 years ago I think and just followed a tutorial
[19:56] <dodo__> I wanted clone a git repo with ssh, but ssh says "Host key verification failed." Why it doesn't work?
[19:56] <bubbasaures> swahili, Read the very first sentence, you are at the max amount of primary partitions. HD's have limitations is all.
[19:58] <bubbasaures> swahili, In order to use that unallocated space you will have to move and resize other partitions to add another partition, the unallocated is dead space unless you exspand the partition bext to it.
[19:58] <bubbasaures> next*
[19:58] <swahili> Can I just expand a partition with the unallocated space ?
[19:59] <swahili> ideally I just wanted to expand the partition where my sistem files go. in this case where NPM is installing stuff
[19:59] <bubbasaures> swahili, Yes, sda4. I also would like you to understand your predicament, that is really messy is all and I feel your not sure why. ;)
[20:00] <MikroFaune> hi everybody
[20:00] <swahili> bubbasaures: I don't. Just followed a beginners tutorial to install ubuntu back then.
[20:00] <swahili> I'll just expand sda4 then
[20:00] <MikroFaune> quelqu'un parle français sur le canal?
[20:00] <MikroFaune> svp
[20:01] <bubbasaures> swahili, Cool, I just wanna see you succeed.
[20:01] <bubbasaures> !fr | MikroFaune
[20:02] <swahili> bubbasaures: oh cool it's working now. thanks a lot dude!
[20:02] <swahili> I'm planning to, format everything and install ubuntu again.
[20:02] <bubbasaures> swahili, Great, no prob.
[20:02] <swahili> but this time I'll just follow the defaults
[20:02] <MikroFaune> ok its not a problem, just my english is not perfect sorry
[20:02] <swahili> from the disk install
[20:03] <MikroFaune> i need help tell me when you can help me ;)
[20:04] <bubbasaures> MikroFaune, Just let the channel know what the issue is, that's the way it works here. ;)
[20:06] <MikroFaune> ok, i installed ubuntu studio and every time i want to see a YT video it go freeze; i tried with chromium and ubuntu, i tried many plugins like flashplayer or flashpepper nothing can fix my problem... any ideas?
[20:08] <MonkeyDust> MikroFaune  enable html5, scroll down   https://www.youtube.com/html5
[20:09] <OerHeks> MikroFaune, i use chrome for flash tings, for a long time now
[20:09] <MikroFaune> i tried html5 too, restarted browsers and system, but it dont works :/
[20:10] <MikroFaune> i will try uninstall/reinstall firefox and chromium maybe it can fix it?
[20:10] <bubbasaures> MikroFaune, That is a kinda a busy desktop is the hardware up for it, the ram.....etc
[20:10] <OerHeks> MikroFaune, did you look for better gpu drivers?
[20:10] <MikroFaune> how can i do that?
[20:10] <xeper> hello. how can I open the terminal of XChat?
[20:10] <MikroFaune> in setting>non-open drivers?
[20:10] <bubbasaures> xeper, terminal?
[20:11] <MonkeyDust> MikroFaune  maybe it has to do with hardware accelleration...
[20:11] <bubbasaures> xeper, There are irc term apps
[20:11] <mjbrancato> MikroFaune, what type of video card do you have?
[20:11] <nicomachus> xeper: irssi is an irc terminal app
[20:11] <xeper> I mean. Seems I need to execute a command is a Termnal of the IRC client :/
[20:12] <bekks> xeper: Which command?
[20:12] <bubbasaures> xeper, where you type now
[20:12] <mjbrancato> xeper, type xchat in terminal
[20:13] <MikroFaune> monkeydust> i think it can be what you say, how can i disable hardware/graphic accelleration please?
[20:13] <xeper> Ok. I am trying to install Lita Chatbot.  I already finished all the steps but I don't get this one: Make sure you're connected to IRC using your IRC client of choice or a web client, and that you're in the channel that you want Lita to join. Then, start your bot. lita start
[20:13] <Mitsuru> Oh no :P no bots plz
[20:14] <OerHeks> MikroFaune, i wouldn't disable it, as it takes the load of your cpu, which might be your issue
[20:14] <xeper> https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-the-lita-chat-bot-for-irc-on-ubuntu-14-04
[20:14] <xeper> Step 3
[20:15] <mjbrancato> I have a question, how do I get my IRC servers/channels to autoconnect on start in Xchat?
[20:16] <xeper> can someone help?
[20:16] <nicomachus> mjbrancato: right click on the channel and select "autojoin"
[20:16] <bubbasaures> mjbrancato, first gui when you load it hit edit and put in pass etc, I would delay it's finish is all.
[20:16] <Mitsuru> I dunno xeper, newbie on irc too :(
[20:17] <xeper> ok :/
[20:17] <xeper> thanks anyway
[20:17] <patero-ng> Im new to aow
[20:17] <Mitsuru> But why would you even like to bot a IRC channel? :D
[20:18] <foobar12> are there any arguments that get passed to the script specified for lightdm's session-cleanup-script setting, such as the user whose session is to be cleaned up?
[20:18] <nicomachus> Mitsuru: bots in IRC are very helpful. but this is off topic, and better for #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:18] <Mitsuru> Okay!
[20:18] <nicomachus> for instance, ubottu is very helpful here:
[20:19] <nicomachus> !offtopic
[20:19] <doudou> have lastest debian distrib a pcspkr module by default?
[20:19] <doudou> have lastest ubuntu distrib a pcspkr module by default?
[20:19] <nicomachus> !pcspkr
[20:19] <nicomachus> !info pcspkr
[20:20] <kostkon> xeper, just running it from a terminal would do, but you can use exec <command> if you want to start the bot from inside xchat (in this case /exec lita start?), without opening a terminal, if you think it's faster that way. No real difference though.
[20:20] <bekks> Thats not a single package.
[20:20] <bekks> !find pcspkr
[20:20] <doudou> it is a module you spee with lsmod and that beep when to mistake in terminals
[20:20] <nicomachus> doudou: looks like a yes.
[20:20] <bekks> doudou: So investigate the URL given by ubottu :)
[20:21] <OerHeks> doudou yes, pcspkr & snd_pcsp
[20:21] <doudou> so when this module strated to be installed? I dont remmember it in old distrib?
[20:21] <nicomachus> bekks: that url gives an error. :/
[20:23] <xeper> I tried on the terminal and nothing happens. if i do it here nothing happens either :/
[20:24] <Mitsuru> Does this count for xubuntu-related Q's as well?
[20:25] <james21> prolly xeper
[20:27] <nicomachus> Mitsuru: just ask the question
[20:46] <andybrine> does anyone know if there is a wordpress IRC?

[21:04] <bobafett> which laptop is best for ubuntu?
[21:05] <rp2> which country is best for driving?
[21:05] <bobafett> germany
[21:05] <rp2> bobafett: that is kind of a vague question. what do you want to do with it?
[21:06] <alexus1212u> germany
[21:09] <MonkeyDust> !requirements | bobafett is this useful
[21:09] <bobafett> heres an interesting read on driving in Germany on the Autobahn http://imgur.com/gallery/VtgEy
[21:11] <bobafett> im trying to decide which is best for ubuntu, dell xps13, lenovo x1 carbon etc
[21:11] <alexus1212u> i run xubuntu on an i7, i like it more
[21:11] <alexus1212u> im running it on a x1c :)
[21:11] <beepie> bobafett, system76 as they work directly with canonical employees
[21:12] <alexus1212u> bobafett everything is detected on my x1c. back in 12.x the 3g modem wasnt working, afaik, but you only had to blacklist a module
[21:12] <bobafett> currently use a lenovo x201 tablet, touch screens not great with all apps and I was wanting 16gb ram for vms
[21:13] <beepie> bobafett, https://system76.com/
[21:14] <Ionic> VMS is still around? good lord
[21:15] <bobafett> vms short for virtual machines
[21:16] <alexus1212u> bobafett which version of the x1c you plan to buy?
[21:16] <beepie> alexus1212u, i think he said he wanted a system76 machine
[21:16] <alexus1212u> he said x1c or xps13
[21:16] <beepie> alexus1212u, he also said "etc" which means etcetera etcetera etcetera
[21:17] <beepie> ha!
[21:17]  * beepie beeps
[21:17] <Ionic> bobafett: see, that's why you should use VM's in this case
[21:26] <gt8ost4l> i need help how come the wirless networks are not showing up
[21:28] <cr45h> type ifconfig in a terminal
[21:28] <cr45h> do you see your wireless interface?
[21:28] <cr45h> should be something like "wlan0"
[21:29] <gt8ost4l> no its not there
[21:29] <gt8ost4l> all i see is lo and ath0
[21:29] <gt8ost4l> eth0
[21:29] <cr45h> if you type "lspci" do you see you wireless card listed?
[21:30] <rypervenche> gt8ost4l: lspci -nn | grep Network
[21:30] <gt8ost4l> yes its there
[21:32] <nicomachus> gt8ost4l: what's the output of 'sudo lshw -class network'
[21:32] <nmatrix9> nicomachus, I got my nvidia drivers installed on 3.19.0-22
[21:32] <nicomachus> \o/
[21:33] <nmatrix9> nicomachus, latest version too!
[21:33] <nicomachus> no more overscan?
[21:33] <nmatrix9> nicomachus, nope
[21:33] <nicomachus> yay
[21:33] <gt8ost4l> sudo: lshw-class: command not found
[21:33] <nicomachus> there's a space there, gt8ost4l
[21:33] <nmatrix9> nicomachus, 3.19 also solves the issue of the disappearing mouse in Xubuntu
[21:33] <gt8ost4l> oh sorry
[21:34] <nicomachus> and gt8ost4l: paste the output on paste.ubuntu.com and then paste that link here.
[21:35] <ronin> what was the efficient cmd line program for editing images
[21:35] <bobafett> on the side of the laptop is there a on/off switch for the wifi, or with keyboard combination fn and f5(or the one with the wifi icon)
[21:36] <cr45h> edit images in what aspect?
[21:36] <ronin> resize etc
[21:36] <ronin> rotate
[21:36] <nicomachus> bobafett: I'm curious to see if it's disabled for some reason. waiting on the lshw output to see.
[21:36] <ronin> cr45h,
[21:37] <gt8ost4l> nicomachus: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11869200/
[21:37] <cr45h> imagemagick is what you want to use but Im not sure about rotating
[21:37] <nicomachus> yea, see? Unclaimed.
[21:37] <MonkeyDust> ronin  cr45h was faster, just found this http://www.upubuntu.com/2011/04/edit-images-on-ubuntu-via-command-line.html
[21:37] <nicomachus> gt8ost4l: you're going to need the driver for it.
[21:38] <cr45h> gt8ost4l: same wireless card as me so it definitely is compatible
[21:39] <gt8ost4l> nicomachus where do i get this driver?
[21:39] <nicomachus> gt8ost4l: I'm checking, one sec
[21:40] <cr45h> gt8ost4l: type:
[21:40] <cr45h> sudo modprobe -rfv ath9k
[21:40] <cr45h> sudo modprobe -v ath9k nohwcrypt=1
[21:42] <cr45h> if that works then do the following command to save that change:
[21:42] <cr45h> echo "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf

[21:44] <ronin> MonkeyDust, yes, with imagegick: for file in *.jpg; do convert -rotate -90 "$file" "test/$file";done
[21:44] <ronin> useful<3
[21:44] <beepie> i just use bash+kvm
[21:44] <gt8ost4l> cr45h nop still nothing
[21:44] <beepie> I don't use any front-ends
[21:45] <cr45h> gt8ost4l: still no wlan0 or wireless interface showing up in ifconfig?
[21:45] <nicomachus> gt8ost4l: wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/stable/v3.9-rc4/compat-drivers-3.9-rc4-2-s.tar.bz2
[21:45] <nicomachus> that will download the driver
[21:46] <ash_m> beepie: a lot of people promote puphpet with Vagrant, but I really don't understand the purpose, exactly
[21:46] <beepie> ash_m, does that actually work good?
[21:46] <nicomachus> then unzip it and run the make file
[21:46] <ash_m> beepie: supposedly; many people have approved of this
[21:46] <beepie> ash_m, looks like vagrant is the vm machine template you use
[21:47] <georgent> Quick question... : what is the best method in order to encrypt a file ? gpg or something else?
[21:47] <ash_m> beepie: yeah, puphpet uses vagrant
[21:47] <gt8ost4l> nicomachus how do i do that
[21:47] <nicomachus> gt8ost4l: do what? unzip it and run the make file?
[21:47] <beepie> ash_m, so it could just be a front-end to vagrant
[21:47] <beepie> ash_m, i guess
[21:48] <gt8ost4l> run the make file
[21:48] <beepie> ash_m, probably similar to libvirt front-ends for the command kvm/qemu
[21:48] <ash_m> beepie: :P
[21:48] <nicomachus> gt8ost4l: the wget command above will download it. then you can just find the find the file and double clip to open it, then click "extract"
[21:48] <beepie> ash_m, it wouldn't "replace" the back-ends, so they're not different editions
[21:49] <ash_m> beepie: not sure I follow; I think puphpet just stores a vagrant configuration you (and your team) can download
[21:49] <ash_m> beepie: _I think_
[21:49] <beepie> ash_m, check it's documentation
[21:49] <nicomachus> once that is done, go to a terminal and type in 'cd' and then the location of the download. it's probably just going to be 'compat-drivers-3.9-rc4-2-s.tar.bz2'
[21:49] <ash_m> beepie: I'm looking at it, but I don't think I'm getting smarter :P
[21:50] <nicomachus> so gt8ost4l just type in 'cd compat-drivers-3.9-rc4-2-s.tar.bz2/'
[21:50] <beepie> ash_m, "This is a gui configurator for the Vagrant automation tool. It uses Puppet as the provisioning backend."
[21:50] <beepie> ash_m, https://puphpet.com/#about
[21:51] <nicomachus> then type './scripts/driver-select ath9k', then 'sudo make', then 'sudo make install'
[21:51] <Virao> oi
[21:51] <ash_m> beepie: how is that different from what I said?
[21:52] <beepie> ash_m, I didn't read that until after I told you likely what it is
[21:52] <ash_m> beepie: lol, but more importantly
[21:52] <beepie> ash_m, join their #irc/ml for more help
[21:52] <beepie> ash_m, i don't use it
[21:52] <ash_m> beepie: does that mean puphpet is not very helpful if you're just going to use a box with Vagrant?
[21:53] <beepie> ash_m, I don't use it, so I can't say.
[21:53] <beepie> ash_m, you can use qemu , vbox, etc with the command-line only, it's personal preference.
[21:54] <ash_m> beepie: thanks anyway! sometimes I miss stuff. I appreciate you helping me :_
[21:54] <ash_m> :)
[21:54] <beepie> ash_m, it's like saying on #vbox, what's the point of the "gui" interface
[21:54] <beepie> ash_m, up to you
[21:54] <stoneder> so the xfwm4 compositor has screen tearing issues.. I tried to get compton to work but when I try to boot it with startup (command line compton -b) the windows and the panel stop functioning
[21:54] <stoneder> how can I get compton to work with xfwm4?
[21:55] <ash_m> beepie: yeah; but if that's the distinction; that's what I'd like to know ;) I think the only other service it provides ...
[21:55] <ash_m> beepie: like Vagrant, users on your team can download the same environment configuration
[21:56] <ash_m> beepie: of course, Vagrant is setup to do that too, but you use your own VCS
[21:56] <ash_m> beepie: that's the impression I got anyway
[21:56] <ash_m> beepie: thanks again :)
[21:56] <a__> Hey, guys. I am currently trying to install xubuntu on my laptop and I am running through some issues. So, some weeks ago I installed Fedora 22 and now I decided that it isn't for me (big story). I installed it creating 4 partitions; 1 for EFI, 1 for root, 1 for home and 1 for swap. I tried to install xubuntu earlier and after rebooting, I got the Fedora booting EFI menu or whatever, so it seems that it KEPT fedora's partitions. Whenever I click 'in
[21:56] <a__> stall' using the default setting, it appears to be keeping the old partitions and just 'formating them'. But they need to be removed. When I manually try to create my  partitions, the installer crashes. I used gparted and removed them, rebooted and although they appear removed, I get the same issue. What to do? I checked it and my disc is fine.
[21:58] <a__> By same issue, I mean that they get formated and not removed
[21:58] <bagsbager> a__: what are you formating
[21:58] <beepie> a, maybe your setup issued dosmbr partitions and overwrote the protective gpt entry
[21:59] <beepie> a, try gdisk in a rescue shell (bash boot installer cd), and use "x", "z"  zap both dosmbr and gpt tables
[21:59] <bagsbager> a__: what are you formating
[21:59] <a__> bagsbager, i am trying to format nothing. I just click 'Erase disk and install Xubuntu' and it tells me that my fedora partitions get formated, but it still keeps them and there's no space
[22:00] <a__> in the end, that's the result after 'installing' xubuntu and rebooting
[22:00] <nicomachus> a__: did you try using gparted from a live disk and repartitioning the entire HDD as a single ext4 partition, then running the installer after a reboot?
[22:00] <TJ-> a__: That sounds like the ubuntu installer started in Legacy BIOS mode, not UEFI mode
[22:00] <bagsbager> a__: fedora by default uses virtual partitions
[22:01] <TJ-> bagsbager: what is a 'virtual' partition?!
[22:01] <a__> nicomachus, yeah, that's the last thing i tried
[22:02] <a__> TJ-, ok, let's try that, first, before trying what bagsbager suggested. What do i do?
[22:02] <beepie> bagsbager, beep!
[22:02] <beepie> bagsbager, beep!
[22:02] <beepie> bagsbager, beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepppppppppppppppaaaaaaaaaaaa!
[22:02] <beepie> lol
[22:02] <beepie> there is no such thing as a virtual partition
[22:02] <beepie> pfff
[22:02] <moonchild> need help coz mozilla frozen often under linux
[22:02] <nicomachus> oh, TJ-, btw: those .old-dkms initrd are freaking *persistent*. I can't get rid of em
[22:03] <satmandu> Does anybody here configure wifi from the command line? Trying to figure out how to keep wpa_supplicant from running twice on vivid
[22:03] <bagsbager> a__: is your  set to boot uefi mode.
[22:04] <bagsbager> a__: is your  System set to boot uefi mode.
[22:05] <moonchild> need help!!!mozilla frozen under xubuntu
[22:05] <nicomachus> !patience | moonchild
[22:05]  * beepie -_-
[22:05] <beepie> bagsbager, you're being reported
[22:06] <hggdh> beepie: please stop. You were muted for spamming the channel, and you have already been told that
[22:06] <nicomachus> TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11869363/
[22:06] <a__> bagsbager, how do i find out?
[22:06] <moonchild> k ubottu,thx
[22:06] <TJ-> nicomachus: You mean they reappear?
[22:06] <nicomachus> no I mean they just don't go away. see the paste.
[22:07] <beepie> hggdh, I was called a "faggot" and a "coon" in pm.
[22:07] <nicomachus> reboot didn't do anything either.
[22:07] <beepie> hggdh, by bagsbager, reporting this on #ubuntu-ops
[22:07] <bagsbager> beepie: it's called logical volumes
[22:07] <satmandu> My guess is that I'm starting wpa_supplicant from /etc/network/interfaces and also dbus is starting it. Is there a way to add ssids & passwords to configure wifi from the command line using just dbus?
[22:07] <TJ-> a__: Are you running the installer now? Did you start it in "Try ..." mode ?
[22:07] <a__> TJ-, yes
[22:08] <bagsbager> a__: do you know how to enter bios setup.
[22:08] <OerHeks> moonchild, remove .cache/mozilla/firefox + .mozilla and start firefox again? you loose your extentions, which can be an issue.
[22:08] <a__> bagsbager, yeah
[22:08] <TJ-> a__: the simple way to check for UEFI mode is to open a terminal and do "ls /sys/firmware/efi/vars/"  - if that lists anything the system started in UEFI mode
[22:08] <a__> bagsbager, but i've not seen anything about BIOS or UEFI
[22:08] <moonchild> oerheck,no extentions,but my processor have no sse2
[22:09] <OerHeks> moonchild, what has sse2 to do with it?
[22:09] <a__> TJ-, it listed a ton of things
[22:09] <bagsbager> a__: it may be labeled LEGACY MODE. That should be disabled to enable UEFI boot.
[22:10] <OerHeks> !uefi
[22:10] <cihhan> hi all! i have a ubuntu based router with multiple eth ports and each eth port has a subnet assigned for them such as 10.1.x.x, 10.2.x.x, etc. Since they are different subnets, they cant communicate normally. Is there a way that they can communicate with each other?
[22:10] <moonchild> oerhecks,i dont know...
[22:10] <cr45h> !taco
[22:10] <cr45h> !soda
[22:10] <TJ-> a__: Good; then the system booted in UEFI mode, and will install in that mode too
[22:10] <cr45h> !:(
[22:10] <nicomachus> cr45h: stop
[22:10] <moonchild> and my videocard is too hot
[22:11] <cr45h> nicomachus: :(
[22:11] <nicomachus> cr45h: you can PM ubottu to try commands out all you want, but keep the channel on topic.
[22:12] <bagsbager> OerHeks: it can fall back to MBR hiding the GPT partitions if he's not booting in uefi mode
[22:12] <a__> TJ-, wait a sec, if possible, i will show you a screenshot
[22:12] <beepie> a__, i gave you a solution like 15 minutes ago
[22:12] <OerHeks> bagsbager, i was thinking about mbr/gpt issue, gparted cannot handle gpt
[22:13] <beepie> OerHeks, yes it can
[22:13] <OerHeks> parted can, or gdisk
[22:13] <bobafett> @cihhan can you add entry in the routing table?
[22:13] <OerHeks> beepie, no, you are wrong.
[22:13] <bagsbager> a__: or called CSM. Some disable secure mode but it will can still boot in UEFI.
[22:13] <TJ-> nicomachus: You'll have to manually delete those files with "sudo rm /boot/initrd*.old-dkms"
[22:13] <cihhan> bobafett: yeah i have root access
[22:13] <beepie> OerHeks, i suggest you try gparted live iso in virtualbox and see for yourself
[22:14] <cihhan> bobafett: i tried but i think it wasnt correct entry
[22:14] <a__> TJ-, i.imgur.com/A2IytTA.png
[22:15] <TJ-> a__: that looks good
[22:15] <a__> it basically installs in in my ex home directory and keeps the EFIboot oone
[22:16] <a__> bagsbager, secure mode is enabled, maybe i should try it with it disabled?
[22:16] <efrit> #quit
[22:16] <bagsbager> a__: manually format. 100mb for EFI. 4gb swap. Rest of space formatted ext4 mounted as /.
[22:17] <nicomachus> ah, TJ-, guess that works.
[22:17] <TJ-> nicomachus: I'll investigate it this coming week, post a bug report if there isn't one, and propose a fix
[22:17] <bobafett> @cihhan https://wiki.ubuntu.com/vlan
[22:18] <bagsbager> a__: select something else in that screen and set up partitions yourself.
[22:18] <beepie> a__, don't you feel the "ubuntu" lol
[22:18] <cihhan> bobafett: let me read it, thanks a lot
[22:19] <satmandu> Summarized my wifi issue here: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=110105&p=787985#p787985 if anybody has any ideas on how I should resolve this wifi configuration issue.
[22:19] <cihhan> bobafett: btw, i was thinking if something like route entry or iptables entry would have for this problem
[22:21] <bagsbager> a__: ubuntu usually works secure boot. You wouldn't of got to that screen if it needed to be disabled.
[22:22] <bagsbager> ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
[22:22] <a__> bagsbager, i tried doing it manually, as you suggested, and it did not crash this time (why? idk). *crosses fingers* i got my new partitions formatting message this time, let's see..
[22:23] <a__> i didn't choose any swap memory, though. 2 gigs is enough of ram for me
[22:24] <Ben64> a__: kind of low for no swap
[22:24] <Ben64> you can make a swap file somewhere though, doesn't need to be a partition
[22:24] <bagsbager> a__: swap is used for hibernate sometimes standby mode. They recommend ram memory size. Maximum 4 gb
[22:26] <a__> bagsbager, hmm, makes sense. maybe i will resize my / partition at some point and get some swap
[22:26] <bagsbager> a__: it could get complicated to set it up later.
[22:27] <Ben64> easy to make a swap file anytime though
[22:27] <bagsbager> a__: you ever edit FSTAB files
[22:28] <a__> bagsbager, never tried
[22:29] <Ben64> a__: just pop back in here if you want to add swap file or swap partition and someone can help you out
[22:29] <bagsbager> a__: you'll learn if you want to add swap later.
[22:29] <a__> ok, guys. thank you all. i am optimistic it will get installed successfully this time :)
[22:36] <bobafett> @cihhan according to ubuntu unleased book a router or switch can be used (but we know that), so assuming you need to enable a routing protocol, I found this on google, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1935303
[22:37] <TJ-> cihhan: If each Ethernet port has a static ip address assigned an associated route for that sub-net should be added to the main routing table automatically: "ip route show"
[22:41] <rhalff> how do I properly mount and umount lvm partitions? I've added them to /etc/fstab, which boots fine, but a new boot will constantly do a file check, I assume the partitions are not cleanly unmounted during reboot.
[22:42] <bubbasaures> rhalff, Show the channel your fstab in a pastebin
[22:43] <nicomachus> rhaliff: https://evilshit.wordpress.com/2012/10/29/how-to-mount-luks-encrypted-partitions-manually/
[22:44] <nicomachus> rhaliff: another, clearer explanation here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/63594/mount-encrypted-volumes-from-command-line
[22:44] <rhalff> nicomachus, I use no encrypted, keeps my internet stable :p
[22:44] <rhalff> ion..
[22:45]  * nicomachus went straight to lvm2 and assumed crypt_luks... whoops
[22:47] <rhalff> bubbasaures, http://pastebin.com/rFiYJeGD
[22:47] <cihhan> TJ-, Hi! This is what I have right now: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11869550/
[22:48] <TJ-> rhalff: You need to correct the fstab; for all entries except the root file-system on /, the last two numbers should be "0 2" not "0 1"
[22:48] <cihhan> TJ-: So, what I really want to do is that 10.1.x.x and 10.3.x.x and so on should be able to communicate with each other
[22:48] <rhalff> TJ-, ok... :)
[22:49] <a__> bagsbager, it booted normally :)
[22:49] <TJ-> cihhan: I see no problem there *provided* that the hosts on the other end of those brX links have 10.X.0.1 set as their gateway for 10.Y.0.0/16
[22:51] <cihhan> TJ-: Please correct me if I understand correctly. Currently, for the systems connected to 10.1.x.x shows <IP_ADDRESS> as their gateway
[22:51]  * rhalff *reboots*
[22:51] <TJ-> cihhan: if they have <IP_ADDRESS> as their default gateway then all their traffic will be routed to <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:52] <arseny> there is a problem with using usb some linux live frequently in my laptop?
[22:53] <cihhan> TJ-: So if i am pinging <IP_ADDRESS> from <IP_ADDRESS>, as an example, what should I do for them to be able to work?
[22:55] <TJ-> cihhan: On <IP_ADDRESS> there must be a route that covers <IP_ADDRESS> via <IP_ADDRESS> ... and on <IP_ADDRESS> there must be a route that covers <IP_ADDRESS> via <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:55] <TJ-> cihhan: that is, the outbound and return routes
[22:56] <cihhan> TJ-: hmmm. I see your point. I was wondering if this can be done from the router side. Actually, it was originally configured this way. But it seems that after the reboot of the system the configuraiton is lost. So I m trying to figure it out how to do it from the router side :(
[22:57] <TJ-> cihhan: The router can't do anything if the hosts don't know to route packets to it
[22:58] <TJ-> cihhan: Are all the hosts configured statically, or by DHCP? If the router is doing DHCP then you can configure it to hand out the correct gateway to the hosts
[22:58] <cihhan> TJ-: It has DHCP server but also static IP is used too
[23:00] <TJ-> cihhan: You could use  DHCP static leases (keyed to MACs) to make sure the correct gateway/routes are supplied to the clients
[23:01] <cihhan> TJ-: Thanks TJ-, let me check that one too.
[23:06] <codepython777> what laptop do ubuntu developers use for working / developing ubuntu - does anyone here know?
[23:07] <k1l> that differs a lot.
[23:08] <beepie> np
[23:09] <teward> codepython777: an extremely wide variety, as I understand it
[23:09] <teward> codepython777: there's no one laptop/hardware config
[23:10] <codepython777> teward: I'm not sure it makes sense to use OSX to develop ubuntu software :) - at least not to me.
[23:10] <codepython777> teward: where do the devs hang out?
[23:11] <teward> codepython777: you asked about the laptop - not about the OS :P  But even that varies widely (some may use latest Ubuntu, some may be on older releases, some may be on the LTS)
[23:11] <OerHeks> codepython777, i know lots of canonical guys use macbooks :-D
[23:11] <teward> codepython777: different places, but your question doesn't fit the general support category of questions - why exactly do you ask what laptops developers use/etc?
[23:11] <teward> codepython777: and i know a few people who use MacBook Pro's as their devel systems.  I use a mix of four or five systems depending on the task/goal
[23:12] <teward> (some virtual)
[23:12] <teward> codepython777: so your question is far too broad, and can't really be answered within an answerable scope
[23:12] <codepython777> teward: 'm looking for a new laptop. Mostly work with Ubuntu.
[23:13] <teward> codepython777: pretty much all laptops work.  Dells tend to be 'Ubuntu Ready' in a sense, provided you pull the broadcom wifi drivers down from the repos via wired connectivity
[23:13] <teward> !crosspost > codepython777
[23:13] <codepython777> teward: what do you use?
[23:13] <rainbowwarrior> hi , i am running Ubuntu 15.04 and when i try and install anything via the ubuntu software centre it keeps saying bad package and does not matter what I choose, I am trying to install teamviewer and skype, can someone help please ?
[23:14] <codepython777> teward: btw, the macbook pro has tons of ubuntu problems - its some work to install ubuntu on them. I had to move to 15.04
[23:14] <teward> codepython777: a mix of systems, as i siad, depends on my needs at the time.  my primary's a dell inspiron 15r, but was a "special edition" model
[23:14] <teward> codepython777: i never said it didn't have problems - i just said it could be used
[23:14] <teward> codepython777: lets not drag into other topics of conversation for now thanks
[23:15] <codepython777> teward: thanks for the information. I'll probably get a dell.
[23:15] <teward> codepython777: i also have a netbook running Ubuntu (old HP), a RPi with Ubuntu, and multiple virtual desktops on a VM server.
[23:16] <codepython777> teward: I'm running it in VMs and a macbook pro. Need a bare metal ubuntu laptop. Probably try the dell xps series.

[23:31] <rainbowwarrior> Bashing-om, it still says they bad packages :(
[23:32] <OerHeks> rainbowwarrior, sure about 'bad packages' ? if i install teamviewer, softwarecenter complains about not able to verify, and if i trust the package...
[23:33] <rainbowwarrior> OerHeks, yes
[23:33] <OerHeks> it is just a warning, as it does not come from our repos
[23:33] <Bashing-om> rainbowwarrior: Show in a pastbin the results : 'sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo apt install skype ' see if I can spot the problem .
[23:33] <ssimon> In synoptic: says cach open-report
[23:34] <ssimon> asks to run 'dpkg-config-a'
[23:35] <ssimon> and nothing happened

[23:40] <teward> droid909: since the cert is issued with the domain and the subdomain (domain.com and sub.domain.com) you need to control whatever domain.com becomes (even if it too is sub.domain.com and your cert is being sub.sub.domain.com)
[23:41] <droid909> teward: i do have TLD but it wasn't bought from startssl
[23:41] <teward> droid909: doesn't matter
[23:41] <droid909> cool
[23:41] <teward> droid909: you only need to verify site ownership
[23:41] <droid909> teward: thanks, will try
[23:41] <teward> droid909: it explains that.
[23:41] <codepython777> is there a tool to keep multiple ubuntu servers synced and updated remotely? I currently use ssh and apt-get update/upgrade manually
[23:42] <teward> codepython777: usually that's landscape or puppet or something
[23:42] <OerHeks> codepython777, landscape
[23:42] <teward> OerHeks: do you know if the free personal-run landscape can work with remote offsite servers?
[23:42] <TJ-> codepython777: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticSecurityUpdates
[23:42] <teward> OerHeks: or does that need the Ubuntu Advantage stuff
[23:42] <OerHeks> teward, no, not free, you can try out for 1 month for free
[23:42] <ssimon> 0-AD
[23:42] <teward> OerHeks: i meant the standalone one
[23:43] <teward> OerHeks: NOT the trial
[23:43] <teward> (i.e. NOT the cloud one run by Canonical)
[23:43] <OerHeks> teward, good question, not sure about that
[23:43] <codepython777> TJ-: Thanks
[23:44] <codepython777> landscape can run without the cloud?
[23:44] <teward> OerHeks: indeed, I have 6 VPSes i'd like to manage via Standalone (Personal Install) Landscape, stuff can get past the firewall, but then says 'can't connect'.  *shrugs*
[23:44] <OerHeks> "Landscape Dedicated Server." It is free for up to 10 physical machines and 10 more virtual machines for a total of 20
[23:44] <teward> ^ that
[23:45] <teward> OerHeks: is that 'supported' by anyone so i can field a question or two, or is that just here, -server, and standard support mediums
[23:45] <ssimon> I need to show a 0-AD to use my Debian packages
[23:45] <OerHeks> teward, found @ http://askubuntu.com/questions/549809/how-do-i-install-landscape-for-personal-use
[23:46] <OerHeks> ssimon, wrong channel, join #debian .. this is ubuntu support.
[23:46] <teward> OerHeks: not what i was looking for but htanks
[23:46] <SJr> Here is a weird question, anyone ever heard of lspci causing a system lock up/
[23:46] <SJr> It seems that after I run lspci 3 or 4 seconds afterwards it locks up.
[23:46] <ssimon> It's  a dvf <Debian bug> issue
[23:47] <teward> OerHeks: i'm having an issue getting things to reg inside the Landscape Dedicated Server, hence is that question.
[23:47] <teward> OerHeks: but i guess i'll just keep beating it with a stick in the interim
[23:47] <SJr> ssimon is that for me?
[23:47] <teward> SJr: there's multiple chats going on at once - you should likely only be concerned about messages that have your name tagged at the beginning, like this one
[23:47] <teward> ssimon: I assume you were pointing that at OerHeks
[23:48] <OerHeks> teward, i guess you know about https://help.landscape.canonical.com/?action=show&redirect=LDS
[23:48] <codepython777> OerHeks: https://landscape.canonical.com - so this only allows 10 machines, and not 10+10 ?
[23:48] <droid909> teward: do you also have  an error trying to access https://auth.startssl.com/
[23:48] <teward> OerHeks: now I do, thanks.
[23:48] <OerHeks> codepython777, not sure how they count that, i read 10 dedicated and 10 virtual.
[23:49] <ssimon> It's synoptics -says cach open:report
[23:49] <droid909> guys  do you also have  an error trying to access https://auth.startssl.com/
[23:49] <codepython777> OerHeks: whats the price for moving from 10 to 25 physical machines?
[23:49] <droid909> am i need to install some sort of cert in my browser?
[23:50] <OerHeks> to be sure, join #ubuntu-solutions
[23:50] <SJr> droid909, no but what browser are you using droid909
[23:50] <TJ-> droid909: I see "ssl_error_handshake_failure_alert"
[23:50] <teward> SJr: i know what he's talking about
[23:50] <droid909> SJr: i tried chrome and firefox
[23:51] <teward> droid909: you have to sign up first
[23:51] <droid909> teward: i did
[23:51] <teward> droid909: they then give you an SSL cert to ID you
[23:51] <teward> droid909: that you then import into your browser to gain access
[23:51] <droid909> ohh
[23:51] <droid909> interesting
[23:51] <OerHeks> codepython777, pricing @ http://www.ubuntu.com/management/ubuntu-advantage
[23:51] <teward> if you messed up that step then you'll have to reach out to StartSSL - there's nothing we can really do from our side to fix that
[23:51] <ssimon> ubuntu studio is my work computer-I am a musician, I write Christian songs
[23:51] <redmage> I have Windows 7 installed on this computer alongside Ubuntu. The Windows 10 upgrade is coming out soon and I am wondering how upgrading Windows and GRUB is going to work. Am I going to have to reinstall GRUB after the Windows 10 upgrade?
[23:51] <skinux> Where is the file to tell the system to use more SWAP?
[23:52] <droid909> teward: this is the first time i see such authorisation :D
[23:52] <droid909> teward: on a web site
[23:52] <OerHeks> redmage, i think so yes, windows10 will ruin your mbr, but is easy to fox after install, see !grub
[23:52] <OerHeks> !grub
[23:52] <teward> droid909: it's not uncommon actually.  for most end users it's not really a big deal.  for SSL certs, power users, developer users, network security sensitive sites, etc. it's more and more common
[23:53] <OerHeks> fox-fix*
[23:53] <codepython777> OerHeks: dont see landscape pricing there
[23:53] <teward> codepython777: it's included in the Ubuntu Advantage
[23:53] <teward> $610.86 for a 5-pack for Standard Desktop Ubuntu Advantage - so you'd need five of those
[23:53] <teward> codepython777: http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?currency=USD&products_id=667
[23:53] <redmage> Thank you, OerHeks.
[23:53] <TJ-> droid909: I think it is because the startssl server is offering TLSv1/SSLv3 and they are not supported by recent browsers due to bugs
[23:53] <OerHeks> codepython777, press 'buy now' and then 'advantage server"
[23:54] <teward> codepython777: also see http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?cPath=41 <--
[23:54] <ssimon> ubuntu seems, in my case, Linox, a code name for dvf 2   ssl link problem?
[23:54] <teward> oh right, desktop vs. server xD
[23:54] <teward> codepython777: $320 per server per year.  Or $816 per server per 3 years (so you'd need 25 licenses).  http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=657
[23:55] <codepython777> teward: sounds a bit steep after the 10 for free version :)
[23:55] <ssimon> dvf1 verses dvf2 maybe<ssl style...     suggestions?
[23:56] <teward> codepython777: well, you should likely contact Canonical.  The licenses there in Ubuntu Advantage will take you onto their cloud landscape, iirc.
[23:56] <OerHeks> codepython777, to be sure about pricing, contact them, or try #ubuntu-solutions ?
[23:56] <teward> codepython777: you should contact them, or try #ubuntu-solutions, the channel OerHeks suggested
[23:56] <redmage> Oh, is there anyway to make the launcher in Ubuntu 14.04 minimize? I don't have much screen real estate so it would be handy if I could shrink that somehow.
[23:57] <teward> redmage: under the display options
[23:57] <ssimon> having tons of trouble -#ubuntu-solutions, thanks
[23:57] <teward> redmage: assuming you mean the bar on the left.
[23:57] <teward> ssimon: we weren't talking to you
[23:57] <redmage> teward, I do.
[23:57] <teward> ssimon: you need patience
[23:57] <teward> redmage: System Settings > Behavior > AUtohide the Launcher
[23:58] <OerHeks> !info unity-tweak
[23:58] <OerHeks> uhhh it does
[23:58] <redmage> teward, I'm in System Settings but I don't see Behavior.
[23:58] <teward> redmage: oop my bad, i forgot - appearance
[23:58] <teward> redmage: System Settings > Appearance > Behavior Tab > ...
[23:58] <redmage> Yeah, that worked! Thanks teward!
[23:59] <teward> OerHeks: might be a different name
[23:59] <teward> !find unity-tweak
[23:59] <OerHeks> i forget tool
[23:59] <OerHeks> :-D
