[00:11] <Sunstream> nice I can play MKVs without dowlong a player or plugin
[00:13] <daftykins> mkvs or matroska, is a container and not a codec format... so that's not quite the same thing :)

[00:25] <jpack> Hello. I am having an issue with xrdp. I have searched and tried a lot of things before asking here but it seems I can only get xrdp to run correctly if I use xfce4. Has anyone had success with using xrdp w/ ubuntu2d?
[00:30] <teward> what's the default font used in gnome-terminal on 14.04?
[00:31] <jpack> Is there a better channel to get assistance with xrdp?
[00:32] <cuzz> open sans
[00:32] <daftykins> xfce is not ubuntu2D :)
[00:33] <jpack> Yes I understand that.
[00:33] <jpack> that is the ONLY WM I can get to work
[00:33] <jpack> I want to use ubuntu2d. but can only use xfce
[00:33] <daftykins> unity 2D got removed after 12.04 i think
[00:33] <jpack> gnome-session and gnome-session-fallback don't work either
[00:43] <alvin1> has anyone seen the default wallpaper for Ubuntu 15.04?
[00:43] <bekks> what if? :)
[00:44] <alvin1> bekks: not sure if I like it. Its seems really dark.
[00:44] <alvin1> *it
[00:44] <bekks> And?
[00:54] <Sunstream> Why is it so hard to install drivers on linux?!?!
[00:55] <Sunstream> I am trying to install the latest radeon drivers, however the problem is I do not know what they mean by "graphical install interface"
[00:55] <THK> Sunstream.....mostly because linux doesn't have native drivers for a lot of systems and they have to be made?
[00:55] <THK> what's the context of what they're saying?
[00:55] <Sunstream> screw AMD cant even write a damned .deb package
[00:56] <Sunstream> what the hell do they mean by this:  Driver installation can be done from X Window System by running the graphical installer, or from the console mode by running the text mode installer. In both cases, installation process is similar.
[00:56] <bekks> Why are you actually trying to install the proprietary drivers outside of the package management system?
[00:56] <bekks> Sunstream: And yould you watch your language please? :)
[00:56] <Sunstream> because I do not know where to get it otherwise
[00:57] <THK> Radeon is a big company, do they not have linux drivers for your hardware on their vendor website?
[00:57] <Sunstream> um. what do i have to talk like a child uncorrupted in here?  OF COURSE they do
[00:57] <Sunstream> gosh
[00:57] <THK> Sunstream....it appears as though you're frustrated and upset. Please calm down.
[00:58] <Sunstream> sigh
[00:58] <THK> we're here to help, but we won't take the brunt of your frustration for you in the process.
[00:58] <Sunstream> Linux is harder than I thought maybe I will just go back to windows to play games
[00:58] <THK> No, no no, stick through it. It's tough, yes, but you can do this.
[00:59] <Sunstream> Well the thing is all other venders have .deb at least the ones i came accross however AMD seems to make it where you use the "suppored by other people so they can focus on there love of Miicrosoft"
[00:59] <bekks> I strongly assume that you've read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/AMD already, dont you?
[00:59] <Sunstream> Windows.
[01:00] <THK> I'm not a drivers guy, so my chances of helping you figure this one out are slim to none, but I will say that linux tends to be more geared towards professionals, and no one starts using linux as a pro, it takes a lot of screw ups before you can get it right. I've been using linux going on five years and still consider myself a newb.
[01:00] <bekks> Sunstream: Nvidia doesnt have .debs either, as well as Intel doesnt. So that falsifies your statement.
[01:01] <Sunstream> It is the most stupidest thing I ever seen why cant they do something like a excutable file instad of me having to go through 100 hoops to get it installed and each hoop is 3x higher..
[01:01] <Sunstream> Oh so Video Cards all of them require you to sell your soul to get it to work?!
[01:01] <THK> there there
[01:01]  * THK pats Sunstream 's back
[01:02] <bekks> Sunstream: So calm down and start reading the link given - ranting will not change things.
[01:02] <Sunstream> Look, the install process is near if not the same across the Linux flavors right?
[01:02] <THK> mmmmmm not quite.
[01:02] <bekks> No, it isnt.
[01:03] <letstrythis> so i'm installing ubuntu on an old pc, 14.10 from cd and the install keeps failing on "select and install programs" i loaded grub completed setup, rebot and let it bot from hd, it loads but there is no gui...i can ctrl+alt f1...how do i install ubuntu from this console?
[01:03] <THK> i don't think, for the most part, that linux is really meant for high end graphics and it might be better if you use a dual OS
[01:04] <Sunstream> Bah I will stick with the offical supported drivers forget proprietary drivers...
[01:04] <bekks> THK: Your assumption is wrong.
[01:04] <letstrythis> linux is awesome better then winblows use open drivers
[01:04] <bekks> Sunstream: Well, it seems you arent willing to receive the information given.
[01:04] <THK> or less bluntly put, "THK, I would disagree with your assumption."
[01:05] <Sunstream> No it seems like AMD wants those who are somewhat above novice to not install these things.  I could care less :)
[01:06] <Sunstream> Okay apparently the EASIEST way is CLI
[01:06] <letstrythis> sunstream, thing is amd need people from linux to help suport the drivers
[01:06] <Bashing-om> letstrythis: "installing ubuntu on an old pc" is it hoss enough to run ubuntu ? what processor and how much ram ?
[01:06] <THK> not entirely. you sell to an audience, it makes sense. BUT, the linux community has made it possible for you to use a huge variety of flavors of hardware and software
[01:06] <THK> read the link bekks gave you.
[01:07] <jaitaiwan> Hey guys, anyone here have experience installing packages when trying to customise a livecd image. I'm getting issues with debconf not being installed (desktop 14.10)
[01:07] <letstrythis> any pc can run ubuntu/liunux its a p4 with 12mb ram xD
[01:08] <letstrythis> 512mb ram Bashing-om
[01:08] <Sunstream> I have been
[01:08] <Sunstream> the easiest is  sudo ./blahblahbla.run
[01:08] <Elimin8er> whats the best way to check and fix errors on usb hard drive .. the only way I know how to fix it is move it to my win system and run partition wizard and do it from there
[01:09] <letstrythis> Bashing-om: when i tried sudo apt-get install ubuntu-* it lists several broken packages for 14.10 but the -f command doesn't fix any of it
[01:09] <Sunstream> Sorry
[01:09] <Sunstream> I am not feeling good today and My ex broke up with me yesterday.
[01:10] <Sunstream> I am in a foul mood but I know better to leave it at the door I am sorry everyone.
[01:10] <letstrythis> xD
[01:10] <letstrythis> now your free to find someone better for you
[01:10] <THK> you should give your ex a linux box. give her the frustration. LOL
[01:10] <teward> !offtopic | Sunstream, letstrythis, THK
[01:10] <Sunstream> hehehehe
[01:11] <letstrythis> give her a broken linux package
[01:11] <Sunstream> -_-
[01:11] <Bashing-om> letstrythis: 512mb is the bare minimum :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements/ . Might try lubuntu or xubuntu . much lighter and less resource hungry .
[01:11] <letstrythis> hmm i figured that would be an issue but it should freaking install
[01:11] <THK> roger teward.
[01:11] <Sunstream> Well teward this did start out of trying to waste my life to install drivers that probally are not as good as the default catalyst drivers that come with the OS
[01:12] <Sunstream> But I will take it to offtopic..
[01:12] <letstrythis> i'm trying to get my bro's pc going and he is familiar with ubuntu's gui...xubuntu threw him for a loop
[01:13] <letstrythis> is lbuntu more similar?
[01:13] <Bashing-om> letstrythis: P4 and 512mb of ram, just not going to hack it for ubuntu. For a good experience takes 2 Gigs.
[01:19] <duckey> Hi so I would like to establish a VPN connection. And so far, I have not been successful. I would prefer not to use PTPP but I will. How can I configure this VPN: freevpn.me
[01:24] <Sunstream> Okay I read that page and it does seem quite a small task to install I do not know if they will be any better anyways
[01:24] <duckey> Sunstream, Me?
[01:26] <Bashing-om> Sunstream: What ATI card ? Older one ? AMD has dropped support for and there is no FGLRX driver .
[01:26] <duckey> nvm
[01:28] <Sunstream> Newer/older one 6450HD\
[01:28] <Sunstream> Radeon HD 6450
[01:29] <Sunstream> It came with drivers.
[01:29] <SchrodingersScat> duckey: so did you try openvpn?
[01:30] <duckey> Yes I dont know any  commands
[01:30] <Bashing-om> Sunstream: Good, what offers from : ubuntu-drivers devices .
[01:30] <Sunstream> ATI binary X.Org driver
[01:30] <duckey> SchrodingersScat, What commands can I use?
[01:30] <SchrodingersScat> !info network-manager-openvpn | duckey, what about this?
[01:30] <Sunstream> that apparently works
[01:31] <duckey> SchrodingersScat, GUI
[01:31] <duckey> ?
[01:31] <Sunstream> But I did read that document link that was in here earlier. It however is easiest with sudo .\fileneame.run
[01:31] <SchrodingersScat> duckey: idk, what are you on?
[01:32] <Sunstream> I have a great deal of respect for Linux because of the fact despite being open source no one really attacks it
[01:32] <duckey> SchrodingersScat, 14.04
[01:33] <Sunstream> oooooh now I see
[01:33] <duckey> SchrodingersScat, I already have network-manager-openvpn
[01:33] <Sunstream> I missed a part of the section I was reading I need to chmod +x drivername.run
[01:34] <Bashing-om> Sunstream: :) chmod .
[01:34] <Sunstream> Hmm quite a task It may be better for me to stick with the ones that I can get through the software library
[01:34] <rbrown_> Guys i'm unable to automate ubuntu installs i'm testing with 14.04.2 it keeps seeing multiple interfaces and prompting me to select one before it installs
[01:34] <Sunstream> yeah
[01:34] <SchrodingersScat> duckey: does it allow you to configure your vpn?
[01:34] <Sunstream> chmod +x (makes it executable)
[01:35] <duckey> SchrodingersScat, I have not tried this one yet. What would the commands be?
[01:35] <Sunstream> rbrown there may be an install script you can use to automate it.
[01:35] <rbrown_> Sunstream I wrote it myself and from the documentation I'm using
[01:35] <rbrown_> if I select auto it shouldnt prompt me
[01:35] <Bashing-om> Sunstream: still best for a non-pro to stick with the software rpository. Then the package managr has control, updates do not break the driver .
[01:36] <rbrown_> https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-contents.html
[01:36] <rbrown_> I'm just about ready to go back to centos
[01:36] <Sunstream> yeah likely defaulting to UNITY if you do not select lower resources one
[01:39] <duckey> SchrodingersScat, What do you use?
[01:41] <Sunstream> Bashing-om, I just wanted to install the amd drivers but.. I may have the latest and greatest , because when I installed Ubuntu I checked the box "Install updates"
[01:42] <Steve_Jobs> so is the Dell XPS 13 going to ship with Ubuntu? I thought this was going to happen in Feb...
[01:46] <Sunstream> I am using the latest X.Org's drivers according to the software update. I forgot how to check version on it
[01:53] <rypervenche> Sunstream: apt-cache show packagename
[01:54] <Sunstream> i do not even know that packages name
[01:54] <Sunstream> I guess I have to google it
[01:57] <skinux> I need help with a mouse scroll-wheel. Everytime I move it, it scrolls and then scrolls back to it's original position, which renders it useless.
[02:03] <sikksiid> hi :)

[02:03] <sikksiid> we def need to calm it down in here
[02:04] <daftykins> this is not a chat channel, it's support only :) so it's busy when people are asking questions
[02:04] <sikksiid> good point
[02:05] <Steve_Jobs> so is the Dell XPS 13 going to ship with Ubuntu? I thought this was going to happen in Feb...
[02:06] <daftykins> pretty sure i told someone before to talk to Dell about their plans
[02:06] <daftykins> we are not Dell :) we do not make money from fielding their sales queries
[02:06] <Steve_Jobs> it was ubuntu news, hence the question here
[02:07] <daftykins> nope Dell news :)
[02:07] <celesteh> Hello, I have a question about wifi authentification, specifically eduroam which uses PEAP. Every other device on earth automagically deals with certififcates, but with ubuntu I seem to need to manually download a certififcate for each institution. Is there some way this can happen without my interaction?
[02:22] <THK> So strange thing just happened.....I am using byobu to keep my sessions open after closing windows and whatnot. In this one byobu session, I have three split windows, the top I use for weechat, the middle is htop for my server, and the bottom is just an ssh terminal.  How can I get the point to jump there by default? thnxs!
[02:27] <daftykins> SchrodingersScat: what? are you serious?
[02:28] <SchrodingersScat> obfuscation isn't not swearing :(
[02:28] <utal> hi i am having a boot problem that says /dev/mapper/ubuntu-root does not exist
[02:28] <GraemeLion> Seems a bit pedantic.
[02:28] <daftykins> SchrodingersScat: none of those words are swearing in my book. don't do that again please
[02:28] <daftykins> utal: remove any disks lately?
[02:29] <utal> daftykins: i did not get you
[02:29] <daftykins> have you removed any storage devices from your system to cause this error?

[02:34] <daftykins> utal: that's only relevant if you've cloned your system recently
[02:35] <utal> daftykins: then what should i do
[02:35] <molly_millions> I have looked everywhere for a SHA256 hash of Ubuntu Mini 64-bit Trusty Tahr 14.04. Where might I find this?
[02:36] <utal> daftykins: then what should i do
[02:40] <daftykins> utal: dunno, i'm going to bed.

[02:56] <newbieAlert> hey LBA are linearly organised ?? ie two files having sequential lba will make the seek time less for the hard disk ??
[02:59] <DilloYoda> I'd like to learn C in Linux.  What's the best free GUI-based C compiler for Ubuntu?
[02:59] <cfhowlett> DilloYoda, gcc is the default
[03:00] <DilloYoda> right, but that's terminal-based
[03:00] <DilloYoda> I was looking for something a bit more sophisticated
[03:00] <cfhowlett> DilloYoda, serious programmers tend to love the terminal
[03:00] <cfhowlett> ;)
[03:00] <DilloYoda> Well, I suppose that's true
[03:00] <ObrienDave> sophisticated??? ROFL
[03:01] <DilloYoda> maybe that's what I'll have to do
[03:01] <newbieAlert> DilloYoda gcc is sophisticated. :P
[03:01] <cfhowlett> ObrienDave, snarky ?
[03:01] <DilloYoda> yeah, more like a word processor for code
[03:01] <pavlos> DilloYoda, there is eclipse IDE for c/c++
[03:01] <newbieAlert> IDE ??
[03:02] <cfhowlett> DilloYoda, "editor" ; lots of choices.  try geany with the C plugins
[03:02] <ObrienDave> pluma is supposed to be a decent editor
[03:03] <ObrienDave> has syntax highlighting for about 40 languages
[03:03] <newbieAlert> codelite.
[03:03] <DilloYoda> Eclipse Integrated Development Environment
[03:03] <doomlord_1> eclipse can use commandline makefile projects
[03:04] <DilloYoda> k
[03:04] <doomlord_1> you dont have to choose between terminal &ide, you can do both
[03:04] <cfhowlett> DilloYoda, here's no "best" for coding.  eclipse is mentioned quite often.
[03:04] <DilloYoda> k
[03:04] <doomlord_1> qtcreator is good for c++, eclipse is more bloated but stil goof
[03:04] <DilloYoda> the suggestions are much appreciated :)
[03:04] <doomlord_1> good^
[03:04] <DilloYoda> I just want to learn basic C
[03:05] <doomlord_1> C doesn't need an IDE as much, because its not polymorphic
[03:05] <cfhowlett> DilloYoda,  for linux developing?
[03:05] <gr33n7007h> a good open source editor is atom
[03:05] <DilloYoda> Installing Geany as well
[03:06] <doomlord_1> i like using emacs myself, but tend to gravitate back to IDEs for C++. actually lately i'd been using xcode on a mac more but I'm trying to use eclipse on linux

One that has been around for some time (so I know it wont die or go away soon), keeps updated as far as XMPP server software goes, supports avatars, message carbons, cell phone connection management (for spotty connectivity), and has reliable file transfer support

[07:05] <lotuspsychje> good morning to all
[07:05] <lasko> lotuspsychje: Good morning
[07:05] <lotuspsychje> lasko: hello mate
[07:05] <cyrix> I just got a new computer and the onboard video is not install or something. When I goto settings and display to change my resoluction its all greyed out.
[07:05] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: ubuntu version and graphics chipset?
[07:07] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, 14.04 and intel hd 4600
[07:07] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: did you install 14.04 with internet+updates enabled at setup?
[07:08] <cyrix> here's my lshw http://pastebin.com/YgjKUV5S
[07:08] <lotuspsychje> lets c
[07:08] <cyrix> No, but as soon as it was over i did apt-get update and upgrade
[07:09] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: additional drivers doesnt show other drivers?
[07:09] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: driver= i915 looks installed
[07:10] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, I'm new to the ubuntu, so I know very little
[07:10] <Maser> I was offered sex today, with a 21 year old girl. In exchange for that, I was supposed to advertise some kind of bathroom cleaner to my friends. Of course I declined because I am a person of high moral standards with a strong willpower. Just as strong as Ajax, the super strong bathroom cleaner. Now available scented with lemon or vanilla.
[07:10] <loa> what is default ubuntu swappiness?
[07:10] <lotuspsychje> !ot | Maser
[07:11] <lotuspsychje> !swappiness | loa  60
[07:11] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, Earlier when I was googling, I came across this page. https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads
[07:11] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: normally the driver ubuntu chooses should be good
[07:12] <loa> !swappiness | loa
[07:12] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: does the resolution that ubuntu chooses by default was not good for you?
[07:12] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, Why am I unable to change my display resolution then?
[07:12] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, its 1024x768]
[07:12] <cyrix> I'm use to 1900x1200
[07:13] <lotuspsychje> !xrandr | cyrix maybe this can help
[07:13] <lotuspsychje> loa: you can set the default 60 to lower 10 example, if you have fast system with like an ssd
[07:13] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, thanks, i'll head over and see what I can find
[07:14] <loa> lotuspsychje, no thx. I just need default value... somehow it was set to 0 on my system.
[07:14] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: normally ubuntu chooses best resolution for your screen size
[07:15] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, I just ran xrandr and this is what it gives me, http://pastebin.com/0xGDNnGm
[07:16] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: 1900x1200 doesnt show
[07:16] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, I saw that, So does that mean the onboard graphics only supports up to what is listed?
[07:17] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: i think so, not sure if you can edit a higher one yourself with xrandr
[07:17] <cyrix> but it also saids max 32767 x 32767

[07:25] <Scott_Z> I have an executable file that I downloaded. I changed the mode to 755. I placed it in a subdirectory off of my download directory. In terminal, I type ./abcd (where abcd is the file name) and I get a file not found error. It is there. I even tried to copy it (with proper permissions) to /usr/bin and still get the file not found error. I even tried sudo abcd. Any ideas?
[07:27] <ap0c> !AMD
[07:27] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, It ask to edit a file that doesn't even exist?
[07:28] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: thats possible, i never edited xrandr myself sorry
[07:29] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, oh thats fine, is it just adding a new file in the /etc directory because there's a gdb folder in there though

[07:33] <CameronE> you were missing the end ' ?
[07:34] <cyrix> lotuspsychje, lol k, that one finally did it. Thanks so much and sorry im such a newb
[07:34] <akkad> what score did you get on the bash knowledge test? my skill score was only 2. "skill -9 -1"
[07:34] <Julia7> akkad: CameronE: Thanks! Can you run it for me? :)
[07:34] <CameronE> I have
[07:34] <lotuspsychje> !yay | cyrix
[07:34] <Julia7> CameronE: Do you want to tell me what the output is? :)
[07:34] <lotuspsychje> cyrix: we all here to learn mate

[07:35] <CameronE> Julia7, As I have NFI what that does, not particularly.

[07:35] <akkad> Julia using it for creating a ponce?
[07:36] <lotuspsychje> stick to ubuntu support guys

[07:36] <newhoa> Hi, is there a way to make a filter in synaptic that shows only packages you've locked?
[07:36] <Julia7> akkad: Are you able to run it for me?
[07:38] <lotuspsychje> !synaptic | newhoa
[07:38] <akkad> Julia7:  you can
[07:38] <akkad> clearly it's a linux forum
[07:38] <akkad> and you're a spammer
[07:39] <akkad> Julia7: d567d4f0-c847-11e4-a98d-000c298d3570
[07:39] <Julia7> akkad: I'm not a spammer! :@
[07:40] <newhoa> Huh? I know what synaptic is... I just can't find a way to filter only locked packages. Sorry if I misunderstood.
[07:40] <lasko> Julia7: I still don't understand why you can't run it yourself? The command doesn't do anything except print an sha256sum of the date in UTC.
[07:40] <lotuspsychje> newhoa: did you read the url, maybe filter options are described there?
[07:40] <akkad> lasko date + Linux
[07:40] <Julia7> lasko: Because I don't have access to my Linux box right now.
[07:40] <akkad> then remove the " -"
[07:40] <lasko> Julia7: Ah I see.
[07:41] <akkad> ISO week number in utc + Linux

[07:42] <linuxuz3r> how do i recover grub on mac
[07:42] <linuxuz3r> i use refit
[07:43] <lotuspsychje> !recovergrub | linuxuz3r
[07:44] <lotuspsychje> linuxuz3r: in some dualboot cases, sudo update-grub can do magic also
[07:45] <linuxuz3r> tried it it didnt work
[07:45] <newhoa> Okay, I figured it out. In the filter section the packages are called "pinned" instead of locked.
[07:45] <linuxuz3r> how do i make apt-get upgrade not delete the kernel
[07:45] <lotuspsychje> !yay | newhoa
[07:47] <lotuspsychje> linuxuz3r: to wich version you wanna upgrade?
[07:49] <Ullarah> Well it's a bit late now, but Julia7 could have used a online bash simulator to work it out. http://www.tutorialspoint.com/execute_bash_online.php
[08:02] <cyberpolice> is there a way to disable hotcorners via command line
[08:06] <Ullarah> cyberpolice, try the solution at the bottom, http://askubuntu.com/questions/450278/ubuntu-14-04-trusty-doesnt-utilize-hot-corners-after-rebooting
[08:08] <cyberpolice> Ullarah: very nice. thank you
[08:08] <cyberpolice> do you know if the hotcorners work during full screen apps
[08:09] <Ullarah> They shouldn't.
[08:09] <cyberpolice> they are working for this game i got. and its quite annoying
[08:09] <Ullarah> I think it depends on the application cyberpolice.
[08:09] <cyberpolice> so i was going to script and disable them when i launch the game
[08:09] <dsc_> woop woop
[08:10] <Ullarah> I would just create a keyboard shortcut to do what you want your hot corners to do instead.
[08:10] <Ullarah> I find hot corners to be annoying imo.

[08:30] <lasko> You can use an SSD drive on Ubuntu Server yes.
[08:30] <Ullarah> nextech, I wouldn't use a consumer SSD for a server, unless it's a home server, in which case is fine.
[08:31] <nextech> OK thanks for your help guys. OK noted

[08:33] <lasko> aciokv: Can you reproduce the error and use pastebin to show the complete output.
[08:35] <aciokv> sadly io can ;) http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584352/
[08:35] <Ullarah> aciokv, sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 40976EAF437D05B5
[08:36] <Ullarah> If that doesn't work, try with the space in the key like so, sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 40976EAF 437D05B5
[08:36] <lasko> Yeah I was going to say try use apt-key del to remove the bag key (if its there) and readd it.
[08:36] <lasko> bad*
[08:37] <aciokv> i've to go to port 80
[08:37] <aciokv> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584356/
[08:37] <Ullarah> And it didn't fix it aciokv?
[08:38] <aciokv> no
[08:38] <Ullarah> :/
[08:38] <lasko> Is is the same error?
[08:38] <aciokv> yes
[08:39] <Ullarah> You could try: sudo rm /etc/apt/*.gpg && sudo apt-get update | But try that as last effort aciokv
[08:39] <Ullarah> That's like a dire straits command :P
[08:41] <pgunnars> does anyone know how to install matlab through the command line without having access to the installation files directly?

[08:46] <YamakasY> !moo
[08:47] <aciokv> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584387/
[08:48] <lasko> And you get that after having done what?
[08:50] <aciokv> tried everything, step for step:  i removed the lists, i removed the trusted.gpg
[08:55] <testtestme> zzz
[08:56] <lasko> aciokv:   sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver ppa.launchpad.net 4F191A5A8844C542       Do that and then try again.
[08:56] <lasko> oops, wait
[08:57] <lasko> So in the error you aren't getting the public key for ppa.launchpad.net   --  sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver ppa.launchpad.net 4F4EA0AAE5267A6C
[08:58] <lasko> aciokv: brb, coworker needs help
[08:59] <aciokv> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584422/
[08:59] <lasko> Okay so that fixed one of the errors.
[09:00]  * lasko is away for 5 minutes, will be back to help though.
[09:02] <lasko> aciokv: (half afk) but looking at that pastebin you did that command after apt-get update --- What errors do you get now when you run apt-get update now that the key has been imported.
[09:03] <lasko> Once you've done that you'll want to rebuild the software cache via  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584439/

[09:28] <Hounddog_> Hey guys... How would i go about finding a programm that apparently is attacking some ip outside on my server?
[09:28] <lasko> aciokv: I'm kind of at a loss on where you should go from here.. Based upon previous bug report (with your same issue) the solution should have been to import the key and rebuild the software cache. I'm still looking around to see if maybe there is something I'm missing
[09:29] <Xanather> Hounddog_ that doesn't really make sense
[09:30] <Hounddog_> Xanather: we got a mail from amazon that our server has launched a ddos against an ip
[09:30] <Ben64> Hounddog_: netstat? but if you have something running on your server that you don't know about, might be time to format your server
[09:30] <marandi> hi guys , i have a problem in updating 14.04 , (http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584529/) can anyone help me about it ? and another thing is my ubuntu partition still have free space
[09:30] <Hounddog_> Ben64: that server is cut off from everything but still trying to investigate
 oh right, now i get you lol
[09:30] <Hounddog_> just shutting it down and forget about it is not the solution
[09:31] <rovo_> HEllo, I've been trying to days to get my Docker package updated from 1.0.1 to 1.5 ... but I've exhausted everything I could think of to resolve it
[09:31] <EriC^^> Hounddog_: netstat -tuln , maybe
[09:31] <Ben64> Hounddog_: you can't trust it anymore, format time
[09:32] <Hounddog_> Ben64: so just format it install everything on a new server and just hope it doesnt happen again?
[09:32] <Ben64> Hounddog_: this time be more proactive about security
[09:32] <z1lt0id> hi guys i'm having issues when openvpn is running i can't access the internet.  i don't want to use network manager at this point
[09:32] <z1lt0id> any ideas
[09:33] <closingin> Hounddog_, you can use wireshark
[09:33] <closingin> z1lt0id, do you have dns ?
[09:33] <Guest94565> im using ubuntu 14.04
[09:33] <Hounddog_> Ben64: sorry for beeing rude. but remind me not to ask you in security concerns. I dont really like brushing everything under the mat without knowing what was going on
[09:34] <z1lt0id> closingin: its running on dhcp by default, what would i need to edit
[09:34] <closingin> z1lt0id, try to ping <IP_ADDRESS> into a terminal with your openvpn started
[09:34] <Guest94565> with latet updates and i want to use some newer kernels that i found http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ but i miss the linux-extra-image packege ... where can i find it ?
[09:34] <Ben64> Hounddog_: yeah do your investigation or whatever, but you do need to format that
[09:34] <closingin> Guest94565, sudo apt-get install linux-extra-image i assume
[09:34] <Hounddog_> Ben64: i did say i cut everything off already
[09:34] <z1lt0id> closingin: yeah i can ping <IP_ADDRESS> but not google.com
[09:35] <Hounddog_> and this server is going to be shit down
[09:35] <Xanather> DNS!
[09:35] <Hounddog_> shut down...
[09:35] <marandi> hi guys , i have a problem in updating 14.04 , (http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584529/) can anyone help me about it ? and another thing is my ubuntu partition still have free space
[09:35] <closingin> z1lt0id, ok that's it, install resolvconf
[09:35] <Ben64> Hounddog_: ok finally, jeez
[09:35] <Hounddog_> anyway... looks like its a false alarm anyway...
[09:35] <Guest94565> closingin no because im on 14.04 and latest kernels i can use are 3.16
[09:35] <Hounddog_> finally?
[09:35] <z1lt0id> closingin: already installed
[09:36] <Ben64> Hounddog_: you kept ignoring my point
[09:36] <Hounddog_> Ben64: no i didnt ;)
[09:36] <Hounddog_> Ben64: you are insisting on shutting it down without knowing what happened
[09:36] <philip> permitlogin yes but still cant login from my other ubuntu terminal
[09:36] <Ben64> Guest94565: do you have an actual need for a newer kernel? the mainline kernels aren't really meant to be run as more than a test
[09:36] <philip> trying to login as root
[09:36] <Ben64> Hounddog_: not at all
[09:36] <Hounddog_> Ben64: also it loos like the server was not compromised
[09:37] <closingin> z1lt0id, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584562/
[09:37] <Hounddog_> elasticsearch made many requests....
[09:37] <Ben64> philip: root account is disabled
[09:37] <closingin> z1lt0id, add these three lines in your ovpn file
[09:38] <Xanather> does ubuntu server have a GUI by default?
[09:38] <z1lt0id> closingin: and done :)
[09:38] <Ben64> Xanather: nope
[09:38] <closingin> z1lt0id, now it should work
[09:38] <Xanather> Ben64 thanks
[09:38] <Guest94565> Ben64 well just testing i like to test new things... but also im having some problems when i hibernate ( it doesnt wake up)
[09:38] <Xanather> what linux server distro do people recommend for a home server?
[09:38] <closingin> Guest94565, go to arch so
[09:39] <closingin> Xanather, debian always
[09:39] <Guest94565> also i have problems with drivers with a 1tb WD elements external hard drive
[09:39] <Ben64> Xanather: this is not the place to take polls, maybe try ##linux
[09:39] <Xanather> Ben64 thanks again :)
[09:40] <Ben64> Guest94565: well using those kernel packages can have unforeseen consequences, notably video drivers
[09:40] <dfbdfb> I want to run a launcher that runs a script so it can update Firefox under the filesystem, the command I have is "sudo ~/Firefox_Updating_Script.sh" thescript itself works in the terminal with that command, how do I get this to work?
[09:41] <closingin> just apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade
[09:41] <Ben64> dfbdfb: uh, that seems very weird. apt-get will handle upgrades
[09:41] <Guest94565> Ben64 well i also have two more kenels just in casse that are working reasonably well.. is there any other link where i can get latest kernels ??
[09:42] <Ben64> Guest94565: mainline is your best bet for least breaking of everything
[09:42] <philip> ben64 how is root account disable
[09:42] <z1lt0id> closingin: thank you so much, you are a life saver
[09:43] <closingin> z1lt0id, yw
[09:43] <Ben64> philip: it just is. what are you trying to do
[09:43] <philip> am trying to login through ssh on my terminal as root to a server
[09:43] <philip> on the server i have enabled permitlogin =yes
[09:44] <k1l> philip: why you do that?
[09:44] <k1l> philip: why dont you login as user and use sudo when its needed?
[09:45] <dfbdfb> I am running an older version of Ubuntu and made a script to update
[09:45] <dfbdfb> Firefox I meant
[09:45] <Ben64> dfbdfb: what version of ubuntu
[09:45] <dfbdfb> Unnsupported
[09:45] <dfbdfb> 10.04
[09:45] <Ben64> dfbdfb: you need to upgrade now!
[09:45] <philip> okay....will do that rather i just like logining as root since its within my network
[09:46] <k1l> dfbdfb: well, if the ubuntu is EOL i would not worry about the firefox but all the other security issues that got it now
[09:46] <dfbdfb> Please just let me be
[09:46] <closingin> philip, never use the root user
[09:46] <Ben64> dfbdfb: security issues, its not going to get better, ever
[09:46] <umbra_purus> hey. How can i check how many users i have via terminal?
[09:46] <Ben64> umbra_purus: define "users i have"
[09:46] <otyugh> who
[09:46] <umbra_purus> Users that I've created using useradd command
[09:47] <closingin> umbra_purus, your brain
[09:47] <Ben64> umbra_purus: this will work, but its probably not the best way... "cat /etc/passwd | grep 1[0-9][0-9][0-9]"
[09:48] <lasko> umbra_purus: Those users should appear in your /etc/passwd file. There are a few ways
[09:48] <aciokv> lasko: its on a virtual box, but that should not be a point at all
[09:48] <EriC^^> umbra_purus: cut -d: -f1 < /etc/passwd
[09:48] <aciokv> its the same at my colleges vm
[09:48] <Ben64> EriC^^: thats all users, not ones added :)
[09:49] <EriC^^> yeah i know :)
[09:50] <EriC^^> nevermind umbra_purus
[09:52] <philip> how can i remotely login using a user account from my terminal
[09:52] <Ben64> ssh user@host
[09:53] <closingin> philip, install openssh-server
[09:54] <closingin> then open your ports
[09:54] <philip> thanks
[09:54] <closingin> then do what Ben64 said
[09:54] <philip> i have installed openssh
[09:54] <philip> how will i open my port
[09:55] <k1l> you dont need to if its a standard ubuntu.
[09:57] <closingin> k1l, ... you know what "remote" means ?
[09:57] <closingin> philip, login to your router, and open your ports then
[09:57] <k1l> 5min. ago he said: "its all on my local network only"
[09:58] <philip> i will rather use user account
[09:58] <philip> and allow sudo privilegdes
[09:59] <k1l> philip: using rootlogin is a bad habbit, once you are used to it you want it on other machines to. and there is the security issue then
[10:01] <winem_> hello, I get a segmentation fault whenever I run any apt-get command or use the update manager in ubuntu 12.04. please find the content of the core dump _usr_lib_update-notifier_apt_check.py.1000.crash  here http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584645/
[10:02] <philip> kil thank you so much
[10:03] <winem_> I don't get the cause for the seg fault... I ran updates using the ubuntu update manager for weeks now. no changes on the files /etc/apt.sources.list.d... no new repos have been added
[10:08] <hoelk> I just got a new thinkpad and the hardware mouse buttons above the touch pad are all configured weirdly, and i have no idea how to reassign them... any idea? (kubuntu 14.10)
[10:08] <hoelk> *mouse
[10:09] <closingin> hoelk, define "configured weirdly"
[10:10] <hoelk> the lef tmous ebutton does nothing, the right mouse button is left click, the middle mouse button does nothing
[10:11] <hoelk> actually the left mouse buttons scrolls a web page a bit when you click it
[10:11] <closingin> did you try to go to mouse settings ?
[10:11] <hoelk> that only gives me the option to switch between right and left handed
[10:12] <chinermudge> how do i update ubuntu
[10:12] <umbra_purus> how do i write the operand "or" in terminal?
[10:12] <chinermudge> in the same way that you just simply run windows update
[10:12] <philip> how can i remotely login using a user account from my terminal
[10:12] <cfhowlett> chinermudge, in terminal: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:12] <k1l> philip: "ssh user@ip"
[10:12] <chinermudge> will it give me any hardware updates
[10:12] <chinermudge> windows used to give me stuff for chipset and graphics
[10:13] <chinermudge> with windows update
[10:13] <umbra_purus> how do i write the operand "or" in terminal? "And" is && but what about is "or"?
[10:13] <cyrix> whats the best browser to use with ubuntu?
[10:13] <k1l> chinermudge: yes, if they are updated in the meantime.
[10:13] <closingin> philip, are you serious?
[10:13] <k1l> cyrix: ask 10 user get 11 best browsers :)
[10:13] <closingin> umbra_purus, ||
[10:13] <philip> yes i am
[10:14] <closingin> so scroll back and you'll get your answer...
[10:14] <cyrix> k1l, firefox always freezes up while I'm using pianobar
[10:14] <philip> i try login using username but still get the same error
[10:14] <closingin> paste the error
[10:14] <k1l> philip: what error?
[10:14] <umbra_purus> so I can write something like this? cat /etc/passwd | grep santos || grep Santos
[10:14] <philip> Permission denied, please try again.
[10:14] <umbra_purus> to get users that have santos or Santos
[10:14] <chinermudge> so by typing that into my terminal... im updating my hardware too?
[10:14] <umbra_purus> right?
[10:14] <k1l> umbra_purus: use grep -i santos
[10:14] <closingin> umbra_purus, grep -E "[sS]antos"
[10:15] <chinermudge> or just possibly im updating my hardware?
[10:15] <varaindemian> hi guys, is anything else to do for migrating from ubuntu to linux mint other than formating root partition? I want to keep my /home partition
[10:15] <umbra_purus> closingin: what if i write "[sS]antos$"? what does the dollar do?
[10:15] <chinermudge> ???
[10:15] <chinermudge> ^
[10:15] <k1l> chinermudge: you are mixing hardware and software.
[10:15] <closingin> umbra_purus, "$" means end of the pattern
[10:16] <chinermudge> what do you mean?
[10:16] <Hounddog_> Ben64: well no it was comprimised actually... because a colleague opened the port to the elastic search they where executing scripts
[10:16] <umbra_purus> closingin: what do yo umean?
[10:16] <k1l> chinermudge: updating hardware means someone changing your video card or cpu. neither ubuntu nor windows can do that
[10:16] <chinermudge> well it gives you updates
[10:16] <chinermudge> for things like your graphics
[10:17] <philip> Permission denied, please try again.
[10:17] <k1l> chinermudge: you mean hardware drivers.  for ubuntu most drivers are in the kernel. or shipped as binary blops. the will stay the same for one ubuntu release.
[10:17] <k1l> chinermudge: which ubuntu do you use?
[10:17] <closingin> umbra_purus, with the pattern i sent you will grep "Santosfoo", "santosbar". With the one you sent to me, you will only grep patterns that end with "santos"
[10:17] <chinermudge> i dont know honestly, i just downloaded the desktop version from the site
[10:17] <chinermudge> 64
[10:17] <k1l> philip: are you sure the pw is correct?
[10:17] <k1l> chinermudge: "lsb_release -d"
[10:17] <closingin> umbra_purus, the correct way would be grep -E "^[sS]antos$"
[10:18] <chinermudge> i typed that other line into the terminal and put in my password and did "y" for yes
[10:18] <k1l> umbra_purus: if you use "grep -i" it doesnt care about case sensitivity
[10:18] <chinermudge> so its doing something
[10:18] <cfhowlett> philip, this is YOUR computer account you're logging to, rigth?
[10:18] <cfhowlett> *right*
[10:19] <chinermudge> 14.04.2 lts
[10:19] <k1l> chinermudge: ok. so now please "uname -a"
[10:19] <cfhowlett> varaindemian, backup your data.  format at /home.  restore your data to /home.
[10:20] <the_drow> Hi guys, every time I restart my startup applications restore themselves to the state before my changes
[10:20] <the_drow> So I can't add new startup applications for some reason
[10:20] <philip> cfhow yes
[10:20] <cfhowlett> chinermudge, if there are updated drivers in your OS, yes
[10:20] <philip> kill wats the pw
[10:21] <k1l> philip: the password you use on that remote machine when logining in locally
[10:21] <chinermudge> i cant copy paste it... after i did u-name
[10:21] <chinermudge> uname -a
[10:21] <k1l> "uname -a"

[10:22] <clefebvre> hi, can anyone running Unity answer a couple of questions? we're working on a bluetooth configuration tool, we added support for most DE, I'd like to add support for ubuntu/unity as well.
[10:22] <chinermudge> whatever i gotr 54 updates... and i suppose after i restart my performance should be better
[10:22] <philip> the same password for my machine
[10:22] <chinermudge> its crappy
[10:22] <chinermudge> and my fan is on like really high
[10:22] <k1l> chinermudge: what video card you got?
[10:22] <chinermudge> i dont knw how to look and i dont remember
[10:22] <chinermudge> this computer was made in 2007
[10:22] <closingin> clefebvre, you should go to a dev channel
[10:23] <k1l> chinermudge: "lspci" and paste that into a pastebin
[10:23] <closingin> chinermudge, lspci
[10:23] <clefebvre> closingin, it's not technical, anyone running Ubuntu can do it (saves me a 700MB download) :)
[10:23] <k1l> clefebvre: just ask, we will see if someone can answer that
[10:23] <philip> still getting the same error 'Permission denied, please try again.'
[10:24] <chinermudge> http://pastebin.com/28LhmSQt
[10:24] <clefebvre> ok, what do you get when typing "echo $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP"
[10:24] <k1l> philip: then your user or password is incorrect
[10:24] <aciokv> can someone with 12.04 please check if apt-get update is throwing an error
[10:24] <k1l> clefebvre: Unity
[10:24] <clefebvre> k1l, thanks
[10:24] <clefebvre> and what do you get with "wmctrl -m"?
[10:25] <k1l> clefebvre: not installed
[10:25] <chinermudge> how come it didnt suggest me to reboot after i did that sudo update line
[10:25] <chinermudge> ?
[10:25] <Peanut> Hi folks - what's the best place to ask for help with a mdadm (raid5) issue on ubuntu 14.04? After my server crashed, one of the raids has all drives marked as 'spare' and won't assemble.
[10:25] <Babai> hello
[10:25] <clefebvre> k1l, ok I'll assume it's Unity as well
[10:25] <k1l> chinermudge: depends on the updates. if thre is no new kernel no reboot is needed
[10:26] <Babai> how are you ?
[10:26] <umbra_purus> closingin:  when you said $ greps patterns with Santosfoo and bar what do you meant? what is foo and bar?
[10:26] <clefebvre> k1l, final questions, can you tell me the name of the commands to respectively open sound settings, keyboard settings and mouse settings in unity?
[10:26] <chinermudge> i hope my performance gets better when i reboot
[10:26] <chinermudge> even this chat is laggy
[10:26] <Babai> bye
[10:26] <closingin> umbra_purus, that was just some random strings
[10:26] <k1l> clefebvre: wmctrl its not installed as default. so it will not work for detecting in your script then on a regular ubuntu-desktop.
[10:27] <clefebvre> k1l, the tool will depend on it
[10:27] <clefebvre> k1l, so it will be installed
[10:27] <k1l> ah ok
[10:27] <clefebvre> k1l, also it's one of two methods of detection, if it fails, XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP is there as a backup
[10:27] <closingin> umbra_purus, so that you understand that grep will defaultly grep everything containing your pattern. Well if you don't know regexp, just use grep -iw "santos"
[10:28] <k1l> clefebvre: iirc unity uses the same settings "programs" like gnome does.
[10:28] <philip> i dont think my password is wrong
[10:28] <clefebvre> k1l, "gnome-control-center sound" for instance?
[10:29] <aciokv> plz, can someone with 12.04 please check if apt-get update is throwing an error, i checked it inhouse on 3 machines, and i need to clear if it is a maybe a firewall issue or if its an ubuntu issue
[10:29] <EriC^^> clefebvre: unity-control-center sound
[10:29] <EriC^^> etc.
[10:29] <Ben64> philip: either your username or your password is
[10:29] <clefebvre> ah thanks EriC^^
[10:29] <Ben64> aciokv: pastebin the error

[10:35] <winem_> I'm also from german and using similiar mirrors. can the error from aciokv be related to my seg fault when I run apt-get upgrad
[10:35] <winem_> +e

[10:37] <codewiz> hi, my friend has a laptop with 14.04 lts, and bought a microsoft mouse, a cheap one for 7€... after a few seconds, left clicking stops working
[10:37] <codewiz> i found lots of people on the inernet with similar issues, none of the solutions worked tho
[10:38] <winem_> version of what?

[10:39] <winem_> ah sorry, 12.04

[10:42] <Rif> this isn't a linux question (i'm getting a shell soon) but i'm curious if anyone knows how much it costs to get a cup of soda in new york. say at a good pizzeria in a working class area or something
[10:42] <Ben64> aciokv: just ran 12.04 live cd, sudo apt-get update works fine
[10:42] <Ben64> Rif: if you know its not on topic, don't ask here
[10:42] <k1l> aciokv: using a proxy?
[10:42] <Rif> k apologies. PMs are ok if anyone wants to discuss the question off channel
[10:43] <aciokv> k1l behind a sohpos firewall
[10:43] <k1l> !ot | Rif
[10:43] <aciokv> thx for testing Ben64
[10:44] <winem_> I will run some tests with a live cd too. good hint
[10:45] <k1l> aciokv: i think its firewall related
[10:45] <Rif> oh ok thanks k1l
[10:45] <k1l> aciokv: most bug or support questions i find on the net for the nodata,nodata error is solved by wrong proxy or firewall settings been corrected
[10:46] <Ullarah> I'm not sure if this is the place to ask, but does anybody know of some good music creation software? I've got Renoise and Hydrogen already.
[10:47] <winem_> music creation? do you want to record something? if yes, I recommend audacity
[10:47] <the_drow> Ullarah: On ubuntu? nope
[10:47] <the_drow> FL Studio can run with Wine but it won't be smooth

[10:51] <Peanut> Hi folks - what's the best place to ask for help with a mdadm (raid5) issue on ubuntu 14.04? After my server crashed, one of the raids has all drives marked as 'spare' and won't assemble. None of the drives seem bad, but I can't get the raid5 started.
 sorry friedns i have one problem for reposity ubuntu don't download in ipv6
[10:58] <jpds> CrueL: What?
[10:59] <jpds> CrueL: Most of the repos are IPv6 enabled.
[11:00] <CrueL> jpds: I have just enabled an ipv6 address in my vps, and not downloading reposity tells me as a result error
[11:00] <jpds> CrueL: Which mirror are you using?
[11:01] <CrueL>  http://it.archive.ubuntu.com trusty
[11:01] <CrueL> jpds: http://it.archive.ubuntu.com trusty
[11:02] <jpds> CrueL: Yeah, I can't seem to resolve that.
[11:03] <CrueL> jpds: tenks :)
[11:03] <jpds> CrueL: Try a different Italian mirror for now.
[11:04] <CrueL> jpds: I'm trying to change several reposity but none seems to work
[11:05] <jpds> CrueL: Tried fr.archive.ubuntu.com ?
[11:05] <jpds> CrueL: Otherwise, you're going to have to do some traceroute6's.
[11:05] <CrueL> jpds: i whait for .fr reposity
[11:06] <jpds> CrueL: Just try a wget on it.
[11:07] <CrueL> jpds: wget i arlrealy ok
[11:07] <CrueL> jpds: my server dont install package requisite
[11:10] <CrueL> jpds:
[11:10] <CrueL> the solution tells me to disable ipv6 address, but I like what I do I just?
[11:11] <jpds> CrueL: Pastebin the error you get.
[11:11] <CrueL> ok
[11:12] <Ben64> it.archive.ubuntu.com doesn't seem to be working at all
[11:12] <jpds> Ben64: Yes, because of the nameserver that serves the CNAME.
[11:13] <Ben64> and you know that... how?
[11:13] <jpds> Ben64: Because I checked. :)
[11:13] <Ben64> why would it even be a cname
[11:13] <jpds> Ben64: They usually are CNAMEs.
[11:14] <jpds> Ben64: $ dig it.archive.ubuntu.com CNAME
[11:14] <jpds> Ben64: Compare with se., fr., de., etc.
[11:14] <Ben64> most i see aren't
[11:20] <agent_white> Heh... the response will depend on your permissions for zone tranfer.
[11:20] <Allelujah> Hi everybody :)

[11:21] <jpds> agent_white: Not doing a zone transfer.
[11:23] <EriC^^> mushir, did you try installing ubuntu-restricted-extras
[11:24] <jpds> CrueL: Should be fixed now.
[11:25] <mushir> yes I 've installed ubuntu-restricted-extras and every thing was fine now i can only run wmv files using splayer .. vlc and totem crash
[11:25] <EriC^^> mushir, try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[11:26] <EriC^^> also try running vlc from a terminal
[11:26] <swapnilz> hi
[11:26] <Prigit> hi swapnilz
[11:26] <swapnilz> Any one know about installation of any software in ubuntu  for particular user not for all
[11:27] <abailarri> Hello. I'm develeoping  web that have a JS script to upload fils. I installed apache for store this web and when I try to upload a big image I get the error Unable to read image from file (/tmp/php6ZCttT)
[11:27] <abailarri> Any suggestion please? My server is Ubutnu 14.04
[11:27] <mushir> I tried running vlc from a terminal I get "Segmentation fault"
[11:28] <swapnilz> @Prigit any suggestion
[11:28] <eightnoteight> @abailarri u can always compile the code yourself, given you have enough system resources to do that.
[11:28] <Zax1> this is a slightly random question, but as this channel is full of knowledge i was hoping to risk straying off topic.......my DNS zone is hosted by SYSTEMDNS.com but when i WHOIS them its hidden. i need to add an A record to my zone but not sure where to go and login...obviously forgotten my logins, if i ever had them
[11:28] <Prigit> swapnilz: ask EriC^^
[11:29] <abailarri> eightnoteight, what do you mean?
[11:29] <swapnilz> Hi EriC^^
[11:29] <EriC^^> swapnilz, hi
[11:29] <swapnilz>  installation of any software in ubuntu  for particular user not for all
[11:29] <mushir>  I tried running vlc from a terminal I get "Segmentation fault"
[11:29] <swapnilz> any idea about it
[11:29] <swapnilz> I know the simple install using apt-get
[11:30] <EriC^^> swapnilz, i'm not sure about the best way to do it, but you could either try installing the software to his home dir, using apt, or you could maybe change the binary's permissions to be read only by him alone, first one seems better i guess
[11:30] <eightnoteight> @abailarri sorry, it was meant for the @swapnilz
[11:31] <k1l> swapnilz: limit the permissons in /usr/bin to that user/group
[11:31] <swapnilz> ok
[11:31] <mushir> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade also didn't help still unable to run wmv files in vlc or totem
[11:32] <k1l> !paste | mushir put the output of vlc there when it crashes
[11:32] <swapnilz> Thanks
[11:32] <swapnilz> I will try

[11:35] <lasko> Makdaam_: Hello
[11:35] <k1l> mushir: please pastebinit "apt-cache policy vlc"
 how can I get that to pastebinit it?
[11:37] <armand> armand hello
[11:37] <EriC^^> mushir, highlight it and press the middle mouse button to paste it
[11:37] <k1l> mushir: just copy and paste it
[11:38] <k1l> mushir: or install the package "pastebinit" and then "apt-cache policy vlc | pastebinit"
[11:38] <Prigit> copy: Ctrl + C and paste: Ctrl + V
[11:38] <Guest6920> ok
[11:38] <Ullarah> Wouldn't it be: pastebinit < apt-cache policy vlc
[11:40] <Prigit> open terminal: Ctrl + Alt + T :)'
[11:40] <mushir> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584989/
[11:40] <Guest6920> apt-cache policy vlc
[11:40] <Guest6920> pardon sorry error
[11:40] <EriC^^> Ullarah, you could do pastebinit <(apt-cache policy vlc)
[11:40] <mushir> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10584989/
[11:42] <k1l> mushir: you are using a PPA vlc. so we cant do aynthing about that. you could remove that ppa and that package with ppa-purge and see if the official ubuntu vlc works
[11:42] <k1l> Ullarah: piping works. so its most used
[11:43] <Ullarah> Fair enough ^_^
[11:43] <mushir> I tried downgrading vlc but no use
[11:43] <Allelujah> hola de nuevo
[11:45] <mushir> do not forget that totem also crashs with wmv files not only vlc
[11:45] <EriC^^> mushir, try the official ubuntu one
[11:45] <Ben64> mushir: try mplayer2 or mpv or both maybe
 yes all works but totem and vlc also I've noticed that no thumbnails are generated fo wmv
[11:47] <Ben64> mushir: this is all about thumbnails?
[11:47] <CrueL> jpds: i resolve my problem
[11:47] <CrueL> :D
[11:47] <k1l> mushir: start totem from terminal and see what error comes then. please paste it again
[11:48] <CrueL> jpds: I must assign dns for my host v6
[11:48] <axscode> hi guys in ubuntu i have this error with mysql -> http://pastebin.com/hQSzwp5a
[11:48] <axscode> any clue pelase
 all I get is "Segmentation fault"
[11:49] <codewiz> any idea about a microsoft mouse not working in 14.04?
[11:49] <Ben64> i wouldn't really use totem for most things, doesn't have quite the codec support
[11:49] <CrueL> mushir: your sistem is x64
 no x86
[11:51] <k1l> mushir: does the file work at all?
 you have to double check your settings and what you want to do, and can do what you are not allowed
[11:51] <jpds> Ben64: You know that it uses gstreamer?
 not sure what do u mean !
[11:54] <CrueL> mushir: because it tells you fault segment, which operation you have to give to the server?
 no not at all ! program window appears for less than second and dissappears
[11:55] <k1l> mushir: so you dont know if the file is ok. can you play it on another computer?
 what server ? we are talkin about runnig wmv file using vlc
 I know for sure nothing wrong with the file . I can run every wmv files using splayer
[11:58] <EriC^^> mushir, try running totem from the terminal maybe it will give more info
[11:58] <EriC^^> maybe they use something common and it's causing the segmentation fault
[11:58] <EriC^^> also check dmesg
[11:58] <k1l> mushir: "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras"
 already installed !
[11:59] <CrueL> mushir: yes is a problem due to the allocated memory
[11:59] <CrueL> mushir: unix.stackexchange.com/questions/132192/running-application-ends-with-segmentation-fault
[11:59] <CrueL> http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/132192/running-application-ends-with-segmentation-fault
[12:00] <CrueL> look my guide
[12:00] <mushir> also totem gives me "Segmentation fault"
[12:00] <k1l> mushir: "mv  ~/.gstreamer-0.10 ~/.backup_gstreamer-0.10"
[12:00] <k1l> mushir: after that relogin the user and try again
[12:04] <mushir> ~/.gstreamer-0.10 ~/.backup_gstreamer-0.10 didn't work!
[12:04] <k1l> mushir: details!
[12:05] <k1l> "my car is broken" doesnt help the mechanic to know what is broken :)
 funny ! man I was tring to run wmv files form totem and vlc and I was tring one of the solutions you guys gave me!
[12:07] <Ben64> you were asked to try a command, you replied "didn't work" .... that does not help
[12:07] <mushir>  WMV files crash VLC and totem but smplayer works fine I tried reinstalling ubuntu restriected extras , ffmpeg and vlc but still having the same problem every time I try to open wmv file a program window appears for less than second and dissappears . I recently updated VLC to so I tried downgrading I also tried to run wmv file form terminal using vlc I have "Segmentation fault"
[12:07] <Ben64> right, we know all that
[12:08] <Ben64> how about that command you were asked to run
 ~/.gstreamer-0.10 ~/.backup_gstreamer-0.10 didn't work!
[12:08] <k1l> mushir: what didnt work there? was there an error? what command did you use exactly? etc
[12:09] <EriC^^> mushir, can you please pastebin dmesg | grep "vlc\|totem" ?
[12:10] <layke> Hey. What does this practically mean.. The following packages have unmet dependencies.  ruby-full : Depends: ruby1.9.1-full (>= <IP_ADDRESS>-1) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[12:10] <EriC^^> layke, it means there's a dependency problem
[12:10] <Ben64> layke: it means you have asked for a package configuration that cannot happen
[12:10] <EriC^^> layke, try sudo apt-get -f install
[12:10] <k1l> layke: 3rd party .debs or a PPA installed?
[12:10] <jpds> layke: apt-mark showhold
[12:11] <layke> k1l, Off the top of my head the only third party stuff I've installed is spotifyand google-chrome
[12:11] <layke> I tried apt-mark showhold. It didn't return anything jpds
 please give me the command to do that form terminal
[12:11] <EriC^^> mushir, type dmesg | grep "vlc\totem" | pastebinit
[12:12] <layke> EriC^^, Same error.
[12:12] <EriC^^> mushir, type dmesg | grep "vlc\|totem" | pastebinit
[12:12] <EriC^^> mushir, sorry
[12:12] <EriC^^> layke, try to install ruby it might say why it can't be installed
[12:12] <mushir> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10585116/

[12:13] <chiel> hi all, i have a service that's starting up on boot, but it is run as root which leaves it inaccessible to another user which needs access. what is the best way to run an init.d script as a different user?
[12:14] <layke> Ben64, http://paste.ubuntu.com/10585121/
[12:16] <Ben64> chiel: what service
[12:16] <k1l> layke: sudo apt-get update is run before?
[12:16] <layke> Yeah
[12:16] <chiel> Ben64: god (monitoring)
[12:16] <chiel> i wrote an init script for it, but yea, it's started as root
[12:17] <k1l> mushir: again: use the original vlc version. not the ppa one. remove that ppa with ppa-purge
[12:17] <chiel> this is the script at the moment: https://gist.github.com/chielkunkels/9d618e9b3cff015b6bdc
[12:17] <layke> Ben64, Was that pastebin any help?
 OK I did that !
[12:18] <k1l> mushir: "apt-cache policy vlc | pastebinit"
[12:18] <EriC^^> mushir, did you try purging the avcodec package and reinstalling?
[12:19] <Ben64> layke: need more... "apt-cache policy ruby-full libtcltk-ruby1.9.1 ri1.9.1 ruby1.9.1-full libruby1.9.1 libtcl8.5 libtk8.5 ruby1.9.1 libruby1.9.1-dbg ruby1.9.1-dev ruby1.9.1-examples"

[12:20] <layke> Package libtcl8.5 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[12:20] <k1l> layke: can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[12:20] <Zarzaparrilla> seems apt-get is broken
[12:20] <Ben64> layke: are you sure you're running actual ubuntu? did you mess with software sources?
[12:20] <layke> Ben64, Yep 14.04
[12:21] <layke> I think..
[12:21] <layke> Maybe I booted into the wrong version
[12:21] <Zarzaparrilla> sad. any chance to dpkg --configure -a ?
[12:21] <Zarzaparrilla> is there a command to clear all apt-get?
[12:21] <EriC^^> !find libavcodec.so
[12:21] <Ben64> layke: you seem to not have a main repo, maybe pastebin what k1l asked? /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:21] <EriC^^> !find libavcodec_plugin.so
[12:21] <hmp1768> So I have this bluetooth mouse I can see in bluettoh configurations and apparently connect to, but it somehow only shows as not paired, so I can't use the mouse. Any advice on this?
[12:22] <layke> Ben64, k1l  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10585169/
[12:22] <layke> I can just reset my sources?
[12:22] <EriC^^> mushir, try sudo apt-get purge vlc-nox , then sudo apt-get install --reinstall vlc , i think it should pull it in
[12:22] <k1l> layke: you disabled your main repo. is this a desktop?
[12:23] <layke> k1l, Yeah. (I don't recall disabling them)
[12:23] <layke> I'm not really sure how to do that..
[12:23] <layke> Is this what is wrong?
[12:23] <layke> http://i.imgur.com/upbg9hE.png
[12:23] <layke> That should be checked?
[12:23] <k1l> layke: go to system-settings -> software and updates -> 1st tab.: make sure its main and universe at least are checked
[12:23] <Ben64> looks like a few lines were deleted, you can see "main restricted" at the end of line 1
[12:23] <k1l> layke: yes

[12:24] <layke> Installingnow. Thanks for help.
[12:24] <layke> Seems like an obvious error..
[12:24] <layke> Now you've pointed it out. :)
 did that but vlc and totem still crash
[12:25] <Ben64> mushir: you should just use mpv or mplayer2 then...
[12:25] <k1l> mushir: please make a "file FILENAME | pastebinit"  for filename you need to change it to the actual filename in that folder
[12:25] <EriC^^> mushir, try vlc -vvv <filename> and see if it mentions anything else
 http://paste.ubuntu.com/10585188/
[12:29] <Ben64> mushir: what is the output of uname -a
 plz give me the command to give u the output

[12:36] <bazhang> chiel, what is god

[12:38] <chiel> cheers
[12:38] <k1l_> mushir: how big is that file?
 about 120 mb
 the problem is not with ( this ) file in particular .. it is with all WMV files !
[12:41] <JethroTux> Is Ubuntu desktop session affected by .profile? May use this file instead of creating a script in /etc/profile.d/? Or should I use .bashrc to set the value globally for all users? ty
[12:42] <bazhang> mushir, did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras , mplayer and mpv yet
[12:42] <jpds> JethroTux: Surely /etc/profile for all users?
[12:42] <jpds> JethroTux: Or /etc/environment .
 yes indeed .. the problem with totem and vlc
[12:43] <bazhang> mushir, did you install the packages I just said
 yes
[12:44] <JethroTux> I've read the better way in idealogy of Ubuntu is creating new file under /etc/profile.d/ giving  right on executable
[12:44] <k1l_> mushir: try to start vlc with "vlc --ignore-config" and see if that works
[12:44] <bazhang> mushir, and do they play with mplayer, using mpv support, or not
[12:45] <JethroTux> i'm a littile confused, I've always used /etc/profile or /etc/bash.bashrc!
 they play fine with them but crash vlc and totem
[12:45] <bazhang> mushir, so file bugs against vlc
[12:45] <bazhang> !bug | mushir
[12:45] <ntsp> Request for unknown module key 'Magrathea: Glacier signing key <--- I get this everytime I update the kernel, any clous what could be causing it?
[12:45] <ntsp> clues*
 not sure it's a bug.. it was working fine before
[12:47] <Ben64> before...?
[12:47] <bazhang> mushir, it works fine in mplayer/mpv and not in vlc, so use mplayer, problem solved
[12:48] <bazhang> mushir, its a bug if it wont work, and no other indications of it being corrupted
 yes , I have no problem runnig wmv using vlc and totem before
[12:48] <Ben64> before what...
[12:48] <bazhang> mushir, before wHAT
 I can't really tell but I think befor i updated VLC
[12:50] <bazhang> mushir, update4d how and from where
[12:51] <bazhang> mushir, did you go outside package management and manually install a VLC "upgrade"
[12:51] <mushir> using this ppa https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archive/ubuntu/trusty-media/ then I revomed it and reinstalled vlc to solve my problem but no use!
[12:51] <bazhang> mushir, contact that PPA maintainer then
[12:52] <bazhang> mushir, removed the PPA how
[12:52] <Ben64> probably needed ppa-purge and didn't get it
[12:52] <mushir> sudo ppa-purge ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
[12:52] <bazhang> so theres the problem right there
[12:52] <bazhang> that would have been good to know at the start of this
[12:52] <mushir> and I installed ppa-purge
[12:53] <bazhang> mushir, installing/rem,oving PPA = at your own risk
[12:54] <bazhang> mushir, so go with mplayer/mpv
 ok got it ! one more thing no thumbnails are generated for wmv any more and when I try to get any file properties the window crash!

[13:31] <the-solipsist> Hello... I've a very simple issue: I have a NAS box at home that I need to access both when at home as well as when I'm outside. I've set it up with a DDNS provider (nsupdate.info).  How do I configure Nautilus such that a folder I mount using SFTP is accessible both from home as well as outside?
[13:34] <k1l_> Guest33868: support only in here please. well if the usb is very slow it can block your system
[13:37] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[13:47] <jmscrk> Hi there, I'm having a major problem with a production server where mysql won't start / I've done a lot of googling but can't get it to restart, can I ask the brains trust here for some help please?
[13:48] <acicula> jmscrk: just describe your problem?
[13:48] <cfhowlett> !ask | jmscrk
[13:49] <acicula> jmscrk: what did you try, what outputs did you get, anything in the relevant logs that may be helpfull, what did you do to make it stop working etc
[13:50] <niravpatel> multidots
[13:51] <jmscrk> Mysql stopped and now won't start again, googling makes it seem like possible corruption but the checks I've run from those pages make it seem not. I've added recovery to level 6 in my.cnf and still won't restart
[13:51] <jmscrk> http://pastebin.com/hQSzwp5a has some output
[13:51] <ikonia> jmscrk: why don't you look at the actual startup error
[13:51] <ikonia> you don't start mysql by just launching mysqld
[13:51] <ikonia> it's wrapped via the init script
[13:52] <jmscrk> relevant lines in the logs seem to be InnoDB: Error: trying to access page number<PHONE_NUMBER> in space 0,
[13:52] <jmscrk> InnoDB: space name ./ibdata1,
[13:52] <jmscrk> InnoDB: which is outside the tablespace bounds.
[13:52] <jmscrk> okay - I'm using "service mysql start"
[13:52] <ikonia> jmscrk: no, you where not
[13:52] <ikonia> you just typed mysqld --verbose
[13:53] <jmscrk> @ikonia oh sorry - that was to get that output -
[13:53] <ikonia> that output is not useful though as it's not starting up using the same parameters as ubuntu is using
[13:54] <jmscrk> okay, how can I get the same kind of output from the service start?
[13:54] <ikonia> check the mysql log
[13:54] <ikonia> increase the debug log if you need to
[13:55] <jmscrk> at /var/lib/mysql/[host].err ?
[13:56] <ikonia> jmscrk: thats one of them
[13:57] <jmscrk> tail of that mysql log file : http://pastebin.com/cUZ8uYhf
[13:58] <jmscrk> mysqld got signal 6 -- hmm
[14:00] <jmscrk> I ran an innochecksum on all .idb files and it didn't find any inconsistencies
[14:00] <jmscrk> also innodb_force_recovery to level 6 in my.cnf didn't change anything so I'm not convinced it's corruption?
[14:01] <hmp1768> Any advice on how to proceed about debuggin a conflict in Ubuntu with my bluetooth mouse?
[14:02] <junior_> so i just recently went from kernel 3.13 to kernel 3.18
[14:02] <junior_> i lost my auto-update and my software center changed and it wont open up for me
[14:03] <k1l_> 3.18 is not supported at all right now as kernel version
[14:03] <junior_> darn
[14:03] <newuser123> Hello, do you guys have any experience with "Startup Disk Creator" on Ubuntu
[14:03] <junior_> what is the current supported kernel
[14:03] <k1l_> junior_: what ubuntu are you on?
[14:03] <junior_> 14.04
[14:04] <cfhowlett> newuser123, ask the question that matters
[14:04] <junior_> looks like i need to switch back
[14:04] <jmscrk> I don't even know what made it stop but it's been offline for around 5 hours now
[14:04] <k1l_> junior_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=14.04.x+Ubuntu+Kernel+Support+Schedule.png
[14:04] <newuser123> cfhowlett: when i click Other to select .iso file noting happens
[14:05] <junior_> so 3.16
[14:05] <cfhowlett> newuser123, picture
[14:05] <junior_> can i get some commands thrown at me on how to downgrade back to it
[14:05] <k1l_> junior_: with the lts enablement kernel. not the mainline kernels
[14:05] <k1l_> !enablementstack
[14:07] <newuser123> cfhowlett: yes i was following the guide on Ubuntu.com
[14:07] <jmscrk> I'll try the #mysql channel and see if someone there can help
[14:07] <newuser123> Am I allowed to post link here
[14:07] <cfhowlett> newuser123, post a picture of the screen
[14:08] <cfhowlett> yes
[14:08] <newuser123> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu
[14:08] <cfhowlett> newuser123, and the screenshot of YOUR computer not working?
[14:09] <OerHeks> newuser123, when you press 'other' the filemanager should appear to select an iso
[14:09] <anand2015> hi, i am new user of ubuntu , facing problem with pidgin with gtalk
[14:09] <newuser123> Yes I click other the file menager appear I select iso file and then noting happens
[14:10] <newuser123> like i didn't select an .iso file
[14:12] <OerHeks> newuser123, is it an ubuntu iso ?
[14:13] <newuser123> OerHeks: No
[14:13] <cfhowlett> newuser123, that's why.  the ubuntu startup disk creator is for ... wait for it ... UBUNTU startup media
[14:13] <newuser123> OerHeks: cfhowlett: Sorry guys for being stupid
[14:14] <OerHeks> Not for windows or mac anyway, just linux versions i guess
[14:14] <bmeneg> ¹²
[14:14] <cfhowlett> newuser123, for other distros try unetbootin
[14:14] <OerHeks> np newuser123
[14:15] <newuser123> cfhowlett: thank you
[14:15] <newuser123> 0erHeks thank you too
[14:15] <cfhowlett> newuser123, happy2help!
[14:15] <bmeneg> hello everyone, I'm facing a problem with nvidia proprietary drivers, either from  official website or repository. I have my nv card on PIC:4:0:0, as showed by  'lspci | grep VGA', but if I run 'nvidia-detector' it just doesn't find nothing,  returning 'none'.
[14:16] <bmeneg> Indeed I am trying to use bumblebee, since I have both intel and nvidia card (GT  750M), and after I installed it (from normal repository) and tried 'optirun  nvidia-settings' I receive "[ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: [XORG]  (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA GPU at PCI:4:0:0."
[14:16] <newuser123> cfhowlett: Does unetbootin work for Windows
[14:16] <bmeneg> Someone have any suggestion?
[14:17] <cfhowlett> newuser123, to make windows boot media, use windows tools.  but I believe there's a windows version of unetbootin for making linux media
[14:17] <bmeneg> Why even with my card on PCI:4:0:0 I receive this error?
[14:17] <newuser123> I'm helping friend of mine to make USB Windows because his CD-Reader is not working, and all I have is Ubuntu got rid of the Windows :) but still new to the linux world
[14:18] <zetheroo> how to change whats in resolv.conf?
[14:20] <CtrlC> !loco
[14:22] <OerHeks> zetheroo, add your dns-nameserver to /etc/network/interface > dns-nameservers <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> and  tell resolvconf to regenerate resolv.conf.>>> sudo resolvconf -u
[14:22] <leeyaa> hello
[14:22] <leeyaa> do you know how to check what is the cause of these interrupts: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10585474/
[14:23] <zetheroo> OerHeks: I did exactly that but its outputting: /etc/resolvconf/update.d/libc: Warning: /etc/resolv.conf is not a symbolic link to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf
[14:24] <zetheroo> and resolv.conf is not showing the correct IP's as is in the interfaces file
[14:25] <leeyaa> zetheroo: just fix the symlink
[14:25] <leeyaa> or "choose" how you want to configure it, then fix it
[14:25] <HoloPed> how do I set ubunto to boot into terminal, without running desktop graphics ?
[14:25] <leeyaa> becuse there are several ways
[14:26] <daftykins> zetheroo: have you purged 'resolvconf' ? (the package)
[14:26] <zetheroo> daftykins: no, this is a productive system so I don't really want to break anything :)
[14:27] <daftykins> zetheroo: well if you want static DNS, you have to
[14:27] <zetheroo> so 'apt-get purge resolvconf' ?
[14:27] <daftykins> correct
[14:28] <zetheroo> and then 'apt-get install resolvconf' ?
[14:29] <zetheroo> with purging it's saying "The following packages will be REMOVED:  resolvconf* ubuntu-minimal*"  ... is that safe?
[14:30] <daftykins> zetheroo: no you don't want it back
[14:30] <daftykins> i've not seen that before, what version is this?
[14:30] <zetheroo> Ubuntu 14.04
[14:31] <hmp1768> Any advice on how to proceed about debuggin a conflict in Ubuntu with my bluetooth mouse?
[14:31] <joan> how can I troubleshoot bluetooth? I'm on kubuntu 14.10 (3.16.0-31-generic #43-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 10), bluetooth is running, lsusb yields this: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode), but when I try to start bluetooth services (bluedevil, o transfer files service), the PC says "protocol dead unexpectedly"
[14:31] <zetheroo> 3.13.0-44-generic
[14:31] <zetheroo> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.13.0-44-generic x86_64)
[14:32] <joan> To be more specific: can I try any bluetooth thing on the terminal, independently from KDE stuff?
[14:32] <scarecrowdiablo> currently running 14.04,graphic card is nvidia geforce 720M..but ubuntu is using something called x.org x-server and i'm not able to nvidia..I installed bumblebee, but that didn't help i guess..
[14:34] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: bumblebee was a mistake, that's been replaced by nvidia-prime now. you're going to want to open a terminal and run "sudo apt-get purge bumble* " to undo any of those attempts first
[14:34] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins : will do..
[14:35] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: after that "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" then "lspci | pastebinit"
[14:36] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: uninstalled bumblebee..installing pastebinit now
[14:37] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins : here's the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/10585734/
[14:39] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: and which ubuntu are we on?
[14:39] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: 14.04
[14:41] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: what make + model computer is this?
[14:41] <dr3er0x> hi i have a problem with this package, wich freezes apt-get and freezes Xorg Removing gnome-disk-utility (3.10.0-1ubuntu3) ...
[14:42] <dr3er0x> its impossible to purge?
[14:42] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins : Asus x550cc
[14:43] <junior_> so i downgraded back from kernel 3.18 to kerrnel 3.13 and now my software center isnt working and there is no auto update app either
[14:43] <dr3er0x> Xorg works but sadly i removed gnome and its a mouse pointer on a black screen
[14:43] <arcsky> the dns always gone in /etc/resolv.conf. where do i add the DNS and NTP?
[14:43] <dr3er0x> please a command to purge a package? forever? or "reset" apt-get?
[14:44] <philip> ssh error Permission denied, please try again.
[14:44] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: so the 'additional drivers' section offers you nothing, yeah?
[14:45] <hmp1768> So, my bluetooth mouse connects to the ubuntu box, pairs with it, but seems dead, no pointer movement at all or response to clicks. Any help please?
[14:45]  * dr3er0x needs a apt-get reset
[14:45] <dr3er0x> dpkg --configure -a reports no error
[14:46] <dr3er0x> but when try to install something apt-get freezes on Removing gnome-disk-utility (3.10.0-1ubuntu3) ...
[14:46] <daftykins> !repeat
[14:47] <dr3er0x> well i'm loosing the hole day i usually help people quick, my fault
[14:47] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins : it offers me 1.Nvidia binary driver-version 331.113 from nvidia-331(proprieary,tested).....2.Nvidia binary driver-version 331.113 from nvidia-331-updates(proprietary)....and 3.x.org x server-Nouveau display driver from xserver-xorg-video-nouveau(open source)
[14:48] <dr3er0x> specially on a specialiced channel on half knows the command and is slighty laughing under the noose
[14:48] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: i'm currently on 3...not able to switch to 1 or 2
[14:48] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: have you attempted to pick any of those, then?
[14:48] <zetheroo> I am still at a loss as how to change the DNS config in Ubuntu 14.04
[14:49] <daftykins> zetheroo: seriously? so once resolvconf is off, reboot once... then edit /etc/resolv.conf and it'll be fine
[14:49] <daftykins> simple.
[14:49] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: i have, nothing happens..it just goes back to x.org
[14:49] <dr3er0x> ok thanks for your quick reply, in the future if you need my help i beat you will finish before calling the army
[14:49] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: ok, "dpkg -l | grep nvidia | pastebinit" please
[14:49] <zetheroo> daftykins: without rebooting
[14:50] <daftykins> same process applies then, but your resolv.conf will likely be wiped on next reboot
[14:50] <zetheroo> and purging resolvconf means removing ubuntu-minimal as well ...
[14:50] <daftykins> that's probably only a meta package, but look it up to confirm
[14:50] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10585800/
[14:51] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: yeah that's a mess too, heh "sudo apt-get purge nvidia* "
[14:52] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: fresh reboot after that and come back :)
[14:52] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: on it..be back in a few mins..
[14:54] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins : rebooting now
[14:54] <scarecrowdiablo> quit
[14:54] <junior_> ok so when i switched from kernel 3.13 to 3.18 i downgrade back down again to kernel 3.13 from 3.18. now since i have done so there is a ubuntu kylin software center that doesnt work. I reinstalled the standard ubuntu software center but how do i remove that kylin one?
[14:54] <zetheroo> daftykins: ok, it looks like it would be safe to remove ubuntu-minimal, however is it really needed to reboot the host to get the DNS changed!?
[14:55] <daftykins> zetheroo: no, it's just that on the first reboot whatever you put into resolv.conf now will be gone... so i do clean LTS setups of 14.04 like that so that i get the jump on it, so to speak
[14:56] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: done with reboot
[14:56] <philip> from a windows laptop i cant connect remotely using putty but with my ubuntu i can i keep getting Permission denied, please try again.
[14:57] <zetheroo> daftykins: ok, and before you said that I don't want to reinstall resolvconf - why is that?
[14:57] <daftykins> zetheroo: because the thing that overrides resolv.conf - *IS* resolvconf! :D
[14:58] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: ok first "sudo apt-get clean" then "sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 nvidia-prime nvidia-settings"
[14:58] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: on iy
[14:58] <zetheroo> daftykins: huh? ok ... so without the resolvconf package being installed changes manually made to resolv.conf will persist through a reboot?
[14:58] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: and also "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[14:59] <daftykins> zetheroo: yes, except not the first time
[14:59] <zetheroo> ok
[14:59] <XenophonF> hey speaking of nvidia-331, what's the difference between that package and nvidia-331-updates?
[14:59] <daftykins> XenophonF: dunno :)
[14:59] <XenophonF> LOL
[14:59] <daftykins> in my experience the two haven't made much difference for others
[15:00] <philip> from a windows laptop i cant connect remotely using putty but with my ubuntu i can i keep getting Permission denied, please try again.
[15:00] <XenophonF> ok, here's another one - on my MacBookPro5,1 I had to replace nouveau with nvidia-331 in order to get the console to work
[15:00] <XenophonF> so how do I go about sharing my experience with replacing those drivers with other MBP users?
[15:00] <XenophonF> it wasn't immediately obvious how to contribute to the wiki, but maybe i need to rtfm more?
[15:00] <daftykins> !mac | XenophonF update the wiki here if it's wrong
[15:01] <daftykins> XenophonF: it's a very funny webpage yeah, i've written one of those guides on the 3,1 i believe... (macbook) just login with your account then some editing buttons will appear
[15:01] <Aamit> philip, ssh?
[15:01] <XenophonF> gotcha
[15:01] <daftykins> back shortly
[15:02] <philip> Aamit ssh
[15:02] <XenophonF> also, it'd weird that the nvidia packages really, _really_ want to install X alongside
[15:02] <XenophonF> or at least i couldn't figure out how to get just the KMS drivers installed on an Ubuntu Server install
[15:02] <philip> Aamit yes ssh
[15:03] <XenophonF> i gave up trying to get Ubuntu Server to work on this mac
[15:03] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: installed...
[15:03] <junior_> the chinese software center somehow ended up on my computer how do i remove it?
[15:03] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: here's the link  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10585866/
[15:03] <junior_> its labeled as ubuntu kylin software center
[15:03] <bobdrad1> I believe there's a dependency conflict within some of the Xorg-related packages in the current Ubuntu repositories. Is there a better channel to pursue this?
[15:04] <nicomachus> hey guys, when I get a "Ubuntu has experienced an internal error" message, can I look at the error report to see which packages need fixed?
[15:04] <mainbrain> dell dimension 2400 anyone have a suggestion on a good fast distro for it
[15:05] <Pici> nicomachus: It should be stored in /var/crash/, but it might not be very readable.
[15:06] <philip> from a windows laptop i cant connect remotely using putty but with my ubuntu i can i keep getting Permission denied, please try again.
[15:06] <nicomachus> if I hit "send error report" it'll bring up the package location of whatever crashed (usually).
[15:06] <nicomachus> so can I use that to do a --reinstall of those packages, or will that not really do anything to fix?
[15:08] <EriC^^> nicomachus, you can disable error reporting if you'd like
[15:08] <nicomachus> specifically, popcorn-time has been crashing on me consistently lately. The crash report says it is the popcorn-time package in /usr/ or /bin/ (don't remember which) that is crashing
[15:08] <nicomachus> EriC^^: I like them for now, because they tell me specifically which packages are failing.
[15:08] <arcsky> the dns always gone in /etc/resolv.conf. where do i add the DNS and NTP?
[15:08] <bobdrad1> I have a fresh install of 14.04.2 Desktop. I do dist-upgrade, and then attempt to add spice-vdagent and xserver-xorg-video-qxl and I get conflicts.
[15:08] <OerHeks> nicomachus, popcorn-time is highly illegal, unsupported here
[15:09] <zetheroo> where does resolv.conf get it's information from?
[15:10] <zetheroo> not from /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base, head or tail ... so where!?
[15:10] <bobdrad1> zetheroo: Among other places, from the network cfg scripts in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifg-*
[15:11] <zetheroo> and not from /etc/network/interfaces either
[15:11] <bobdrad1> s/ifg/ifcfg/
[15:11] <zetheroo> bobdrad1: how does one change the contents of resolv.conf?
[15:12] <bobdrad1> zetheroo, you can edit it for an immediate runtime change. But for a persistent change I add DNS1 and DOMAIN records to my appropriate ifcfg-* scripts, or to /etc/sysconfig/network for a global change.
[15:12] <zetheroo> and I have no " /etc/sysconfig"
[15:13] <zetheroo> ok, what does " ifcfg-* scripts" mean?
[15:13] <bobdrad1> zetheroo: Humble apologies, that's true for other distros, not Deb/Ubuntu it appears
[15:13] <zetheroo> this stuff used to be much simpler ... :P
[15:14] <bobdrad1> Yeah, it used to be consistent
[15:14] <zetheroo> changing DNS shouldn't be this complex
[15:15] <bobdrad1> zetheroo: Start by reading the resolvconf man page.
[15:15] <zetheroo> all over the net people are saying to edit '/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base' and then do 'resolvconf -u' ... and that that sorts out resolv.conf - but this doesn;t work for me at all
[15:16] <zetheroo> well I am trying to get my head around this http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/resolvconf.8.html
[15:17] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: are you sure this isn't either 14.04.2 or 14.10? (run "cat /etc/issue" )
[15:17] <nicomachus> OerHeks: I understand your sentiment, although untrue (legality is ambiguous). I can talk about it in general terms of how to fix a corrupted package.
[15:17] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: in about this computer , it says ubuntu 14.04 lts
[15:17] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: running it now
[15:18] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS \n \l
[15:19] <sudormrf> zetheroo, have you looked in to dnsmasq?
[15:19] <zetheroo> no
[15:19] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: ok, makes sense. now do you have another computer to come online from if it doesn't boot correctly after some more commands?
[15:20] <daftykins> or perhaps another OS on that one
[15:20] <zetheroo>  sudormrf: is this something additional to resolvconf?
[15:20] <sudormrf> zetheroo, dnsmasq is installed/enabled by default in newer versions of ubuntu, this could be part of the issue you are experiencing.
[15:20] <sudormrf> zetheroo, yes.  it writes information to resolv.conf
[15:20] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: yeah..i have another computer collecting dust..can use that..
[15:20] <zetheroo> ok
[15:20] <OerHeks> nicomachus, channel rules i guess, remove that package and see if you still have issues
[15:20] <daftykins> zetheroo: what i've pointed to is already enough to handle the issue ;) i wouldn't worry about what sudormrf is saying - but you can certainly read more into the topic
[15:21] <mun> hi
[15:21] <mun> where should production code be placed in?
[15:21] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: ok, shouldn't come to that with any luck. are you ok enough on the command line to rename a file if it doesn't boot correctly? or could you boot a flash drive of ubuntu again?
[15:21] <mun> somewhere like /opt? /srv?
[15:21] <zetheroo> crap, removing dnsmasq wants to tear out a bunch of libvirt stuff too :P
[15:22] <daftykins> zetheroo: and this is why we kindly accept sudormrf's advice but don't act on it ;)
[15:22] <daftykins> sudormrf: <3
[15:22] <zetheroo> daftykins: I am just not able to reboot this machine - it's a KVM host :P
[15:22] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: i gotta go for like 10-20 minutes..i'll get the other computer and be ready by then...and i'm pretty bad with command line..
[15:22] <zetheroo> :D
[15:23] <sudormrf> zetheroo, daftykins knows everything.  no one else knows anything ;D
[15:23] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: i have a few important files on this..'ll copy it to my Hd..
[15:23] <zetheroo> So I guess changing DNS settings on Ubuntu is a nightmare now ... it used to be just a matter of editing a single conf file
[15:23] <daftykins> sudormrf: preci... hey wait a minute!
[15:24] <daftykins> zetheroo: yep, my process of clean server installs is: dist-upgrade, purge resolvconf, configure /etc/network/interfaces for static IP and reboot, then hardcode DNS in /etc/resolv.conf and it's done
[15:24] <zetheroo> sudormrf: no, thank for the hint. Actually I recall having removed that package elsewhere and it solved this issue ... but I cannot remove it from here as it wants to tear out other things that I need ;)
[15:24] <daftykins> far too much automagic junk these days.
[15:24] <daftykins> dnsmasq is more a parent of resolvconf i think
[15:24] <zetheroo> daftykins: aha - so from the onset you purge out resolveconf
[15:24] <daftykins> but my way works, since it's what i suggested
[15:24] <zetheroo> ok
[15:25] <daftykins> zetheroo: yep :) not fond of that automatic rubbish
[15:25] <daftykins> doesn't belong on a server imo
[15:25] <zetheroo> So really I need to migrate all these VM's off and then get this server rebooted etc ...
[15:25] <zetheroo> I agree!!!!
[15:26] <zetheroo> ok, I guess I will have to wait on this change then - thanks again for your help.
[15:26] <daftykins> no problemo
[15:28] <sudormrf> daftykins, what was your suggestion to zetheroo to solve the problem?  j/w
[15:30] <zetheroo> purge resolveconf package - reboot - edit resolv.conf with nameservers
[15:30] <sudormrf> zetheroo, ah.  gotcha.  let us know if it works ;).
[15:30] <zetheroo> will do ... though it won't be today - gotta offload these VM's ... somewhere ... :P
[15:33] <MortezaE> Hi, i remembered of a funny linux utility, i once installed years ago.. maybe ubuntu 8.* or 9.*
[15:33] <MortezaE> It was about "sex" :))
[15:33] <MortezaE> it was giving some offensive/errotic (not sure) output
[15:34] <MortezaE> DAE used it? :D
[15:34] <MortezaE> not sure about it's package name
[15:34] <daftykins> you're on your own with that one, MortezaE
[15:34] <MortezaE> daftykins, just searching it for fun ;)
[15:37] <XLV> whats the 15.04 channel again?
[15:37] <bindi> #ubuntu+1 i guess
[15:38] <XLV> bindi, 10x
[15:40] <codingyoddha> exit
[15:41] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: ok..i'm back..sorry about that..i booted up the other computer..
[15:43] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: i'm on the other system now.
[15:43] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: ok on the asus, try "sudo nvidia-xconfig" then reboot
[15:44] <nicomachus> do kernel updates ever surpass the capabilities of older mobos/CPUs, or should they be pretty universally compatible?
[15:44] <daftykins> nicomachus: what are you planning on doing? :)
[15:44] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: WARNING: Unable to locate/open X configuration file.  New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[15:45] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: yep all safe, reboot :>
[15:46] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: phew...so glad..on it..
[15:48] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: done with the reboot...will come online with asus in a minute..

[15:48] <Pici> ubuntu-mate: please don't do that.
[15:49] <ubuntu-mate> sorry
[15:49] <scarecrowdiablo> daftykins: done..
[15:49] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: ok click the dash icon upper left and try running "nvidia-settings"
[15:50] <scarecrowdiablo> looks really different than what it used to..
[15:50] <daftykins> how-so?
[15:51] <scarecrowdiablo> well..before it had barely few options..now it has..x-server info,x-server display config, x screen 0 . gpu 0 ,prime profiles, etc
[15:52] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo: excellent, sounds like a success. to double check, can you do a "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" again?
[15:52] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: it just froze..the screen..
[15:53] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: shall i reboot it and try again?
[15:53] <nicomachus> daftykins: just getting an error from Software Update when it tries to update the kernel to 3.13.0-46
[15:53] <CasW> Hmm, anybody here who had the same problem of Thunderbird disappearing from the left bar? I didn't, but my (not so tech-savvy) gramps did, and so did some random Ubuntu reviewer on the internet, I just wanted to check if more people had it (and if it's a bug of some sorts; if so, if it's already reported)
[15:54] <daftykins> nicomachus: what kind of error?
[15:54] <nicomachus> I also get Kernel Panic errors every other startup
[15:54] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: hrmm, so it keps showing the desktop image - but would no longer change? no mouse pointer movement, no keyboard presses etc?
[15:54] <nicomachus> don't have the computer in front of me ATM, but it was a package manager error, I believe
[15:54] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: Exactly!
[15:54] <nicomachus> very unspecific error report.
[15:54] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: weird.
[15:54] <daftykins> !reisub
[15:55] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: try ^
[15:55] <daftykins> which admittedly requires quite the keyboard gymnastics
[15:55] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: lol..on it
[15:55] <nicomachus> daftykins: that's super handy to know, as a general FYI. haha
[15:56] <daftykins> nicomachus: ok well get the error to us when you can :) that's where to start
[15:56] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: done..
[15:57] <OerHeks> "<nicomachus>	specifically, popcorn-time has been crashing on me consistently lately. The crash report says it is the popcorn-time package in /usr/ or /bin/ (don't remember which) that is crashing"
[15:57] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: did it reboot?
[15:58] <al1981> help, can't put files over ftp - 550 no such file - but it is there
[15:58] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: yeah..http://paste.ubuntu.com/10586137/
[15:59] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: ran that command you said earlier..
[15:59] <mainbrain> dell dimension 2400 anyone have a suggestion on a good fast distro for it
[16:00] <k1l_> mainbrain: since you ask in #ubuntu: ubuntu :)
[16:00] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: looks good, properly using the nvidia driver now. make sure you're fully up to date with a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" then just see how you get on
[16:00] <cfhowlett> mainbrain, let me think ... ubuntu!
[16:00] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: it froze again... :(
[16:01] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: was trying to log into the irc and it just froze..
[16:01] <k1l_> mainbrain: since it seems to bee quite old see if Lubuntu fits better
[16:01] <daftykins> hrmm
[16:01] <mainbrain> trt it but it lagging when i play video im runnung ubuntu 14.10 on my acer just fine
[16:01] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: ok is ubuntu the only OS on this or is it beside Windows 8?
[16:01] <cfhowlett> mainbrain, lubuntu or xubuntu.  lubuntu is optimized for legacy and low spec hardware
[16:01] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: only ubuntu.
[16:02] <nicomachus> OerHeks: Why did you quote that?
[16:03] <OerHeks> nicomachus, as you said 'very unspecific error report." which is not true
[16:03] <mainbrain> ok im running lubuntu on it right now got 1 problem ... vlc want play video getting audio though
[16:03] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: alright, see if you can get in again to run "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old"
[16:03] <nicomachus> OerHeks: The kernel issue and the popcorn-time issue are separate. Possibly related, but not that I can determine yet.
[16:04] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: will reboot and try that..
[16:06] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: tried that..nothing happened..
[16:06] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: i mean, no output of any sort..
[16:06] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: that's correct, and reboot again
[16:07] <scarecrowdiablo1> on it
[16:07] <mainbrain> ok im running lubuntu on it right now got 1 problem ... vlc want play video getting audio though funny thing is that i can open video with system settings  while vlc is playing and the video will glitch in/out
[16:07] <nicomachus> mainbrain: do you mean VLC WON'T play video but you are getting audio?
[16:07] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: Done
[16:07] <mainbrain> correct
[16:08] <k1l_> mainbrain: sounds like some video driver issue
[16:08] <nicomachus> mainbrain: sounds like a GPU or codec issue. what's the file type?
[16:08] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: this time, "sudo apt-get purge nvidia* " as earlier, then "sudo apt-get clean" then "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa"
[16:08] <scarecrowdiablo1> cool..on it
[16:08] <mainbrain> .avi mostly
[16:09] <nicomachus> mainbrain: so you get the same problem with .avi and other file types? More than one type?
[16:10] <nicomachus> I ask because .avi is a tricky file type for VLC in linux. something like .mkv or .mp4 should play just fine. so if you can play an .mp4 or .mkv with no errors, then it's likely a codec issue trying to decode the .avi
[16:10] <nicomachus> try this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/166311/cannot-play-avi-or-mp4-file-in-both-movie-player-and-vlc
[16:10] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: Done..
[16:11] <GoatMaster> Hey
[16:11] <GoatMaster> I got a Macmini here with Ubuntu 12.04 on it
[16:11] <nicomachus> congrats, GoatMaster
[16:11] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get install nvidia-346 nvidia-settings"
[16:11] <GoatMaster> I now want to reinstall Ubuntu, how can I boot from the install cd
[16:12] <GoatMaster> starting it with alt will not work...
[16:12] <mainbrain> no it being the same way for all video file types that i can recall
[16:12] <cfhowlett> GoatMaster, CD?  not USB?
[16:12] <daftykins> GoatMaster: make a flash drive instead.
[16:12] <cfhowlett> !mac | GoatMaster
[16:12] <GoatMaster> The first installation with the CD worked fine but no I cannot boot into the CD
[16:12] <GoatMaster> even with holding alt at the start...
[16:13] <mainbrain> no it being the same way for all video file types that i can recall and youtube does fine
[16:13] <cfhowlett> GoatMaster, see the mac support pages provided in the link
[16:13] <GoatMaster> cfhowlett, thanks I will check the manuel
[16:14] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: done with apt-get update
[16:14] <daftykins> and the other one too?
[16:15] <scarecrowdiablo1> it needs to download 287 mb..
[16:15] <scarecrowdiablo1> running it
[16:15] <daftykins> ah, slow tubes?
[16:15] <scarecrowdiablo1> not that slow, but kinda..
[16:17] <nicomachus> scarecrowdiablo1: Just an FYI, there are plenty of open apartments here in KC that are already wired for Google Fiber. ;)
[16:17] <scarecrowdiablo1> nicomachus: why you make me crie? :'(
[16:17] <daftykins> lets stay on topic peeps
[16:18] <nicomachus> aw, i was trying to instill hope! And sorry, daftykins.
[16:19] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: Done..
[16:19] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: reboot again :>
[16:19] <scarecrowdiablo1> on it
[16:19] <nicomachus> good thing Ubuntu only takes about 30 seconds to reboot... jesus.
[16:20] <daftykins> maybe if you're using an antique
[16:20] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: done with reboot..
[16:21] <daftykins> see what nvidia-settings says and whether it freezes now
[16:21] <nicomachus> lol, daftykins' i7 with the OS loaded on SSD only takes 5 seconds?
[16:21] <scarecrowdiablo1> jeezus!..Froze
[16:21] <daftykins> ugh.
[16:21] <bekks> nicomachus: thats not true. I do have an i7, and I do have a SSD. It takes longer than 5s.
[16:22] <cfhowlett> nicomachus, same here ---
[16:22] <nicomachus> bekks: an exaggeration.
[16:23] <bekks> nicomachus: 30s reboot time is pretty fast. Very often the BIOS part takes 10-20s, so the boot process is done with 10-15s. Not calculating the time to shutdown.
[16:23] <mainbrain> nicomachus thanks it was my video output settings they must got changed on accident thanks again
[16:23] <Basketball> has anyone gotten fitbit program to work in ubuntu
[16:23] <nicomachus> mainbrain: I'm glad to finally be helping in this channel instead of seeking it!
[16:23] <ikonia> Basketball: it's windows and mac only
[16:23] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: i was able to switch to nvidia before..it used to freeze..tried x.org..stopped freezing..read forums online, they said 'need bumblebee'..installed bumblebee..didnt help..i couldnt switch to nvidia anymore and i ended up here
[16:24] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: yeah prime was meant to replace that though, plus bumblebee is more for optimus setups and i don't think yours is one
[16:24] <mainbrain> nicomachus yeah cant wait to start helping also
[16:25] <nicomachus> someones gotta take the load off daftykins!
[16:25] <daftykins> lol, i'm by far not the most active
[16:25] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins : do i reboot the asus?
[16:25] <wkejrnjkl> is it
[16:25] <wkejrnjkl> oobutunu
[16:25] <wkejrnjkl> or
[16:25] <wkejrnjkl> obuuntu
[16:25] <wkejrnjkl> ?
[16:26] <daftykins> wkejrnjkl: look it up on youtube perhaps :P
[16:26] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: i really don't know what to suggest now, that's two different driver versions that aren't happy bunnies...
[16:26] <wkejrnjkl> daftykins, youuuutube or youtuuuube
[16:26] <Basketball> ikonia, so there is no way
[16:26] <ikonia> Basketball: there isn't a linux version
[16:27] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: damn..should i switch back to x.org to prevent freeze?
[16:27] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: just run "sudo apt-get purge nvidia* "
[16:27] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: i think that machine would rather be on Windows, seems a bit more of a gaming type
[16:27] <Briankan> hi, what's the channel for ubuntu touch/phone?
[16:28] <k1l_> Briankan: #ubuntu-touch
[16:28] <Briankan> !help ubuntu channels
[16:28] <Briankan> thanks
[16:28] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: yeah, used to game a lot..quit now..plus , kinda sick of windows too..
[16:28] <nicomachus> oh wow, I didn't know there was a separate channel for touch
[16:28] <Briankan> they keep them hidden :>
[16:29] <daftykins> nicomachus: can you start filtering your comments to support only, please :/ chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:29] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: done with purge nvidia*
[16:29] <nicomachus> daftykins: you got it, sorry, my self-control is terrible.
[16:29] <k1l_> well its not hidden. its just seperated since the support differs heavily from the desktop right now
[16:29] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: ok, restart and you'll be pretty much back where you started :(
[16:30] <newbiemate> Anyone using ubuntu mate?
[16:30] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: cool..
[16:30] <newbiemate> I am unsure which iso to download for my laptop.
[16:30] <k1l_> newbiemate: some might. but what is you real question?
[16:31] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: thanks a lot though...
[16:31] <MortezaE> daftykins, found it ;) "purity-off"
[16:31] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: no worries, we tried! 15.04 might have a better chance once it's out
[16:31] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: is 14.10 any better?
[16:31] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: nah, you're also already using its' kernel.
[16:32] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: guess i'll be running on this till 15.04 is released..
[16:32] <dinamizador> kkkkkkkgk
[16:32] <k1l_> scarecrowdiablo1: keep in mind you need to upgrade the ubuntu release every 6 months once you leave the 14.04 LTS
[16:32] <krabador> how can i set envelop indicator?
[16:33] <k1l_> krabador: can you explain a bit more?
[16:33] <scarecrowdiablo1> k1l_ : guess i'll be sticking to 14.04 for a while then...thanks :)
[16:34] <krabador> k1l_, hi, i would know if it's possible to set what let appear in envelope indicator
[16:34] <krabador> like if xchat and not pidgin, not thunderbird, ecc
[16:35] <k1l_> krabador: theoretically yes. but that will be a lot of work, imho
[16:35] <nicomachus> a LOT. I tried once.
[16:35] <nicomachus> easier to just purge pidgin and thunderbird.
[16:36] <scarecrowdiablo1> alright...guys..i've got one more problem..
[16:36] <scarecrowdiablo1> not able to run 'Steam'..
[16:36] <krabador> k1l_, oh, great, i supposed i missed some menu
[16:36] <nicomachus> scarecrowdiablo1: I think they've released Steam for Linux now, but it still runs WAY better under WINE
[16:37] <daftykins> nicomachus: that's a very dubious claim
[16:37] <nicomachus> a lot of your games will be incompatible though. see here: https://appdb.winehq.org/
[16:37] <nicomachus> daftykins: why dubious/
[16:37] <k1l> !paste | scarecrowdiablo1
[16:37] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: what have you tried? "sudo apt-get install steam" worked fine for me
[16:38] <scarecrowdiablo1> nicomachus: will give it a try..
[16:38] <nicomachus> trust daftykins over me. always.
[16:38] <Gamoder_> Um, is there a version of rm accepting only a single argument?
[16:38] <daftykins> scarecrowdiablo1: fwiw nicomachus is giving pretty bad advice imo, i would not touch WINE when there's a native program
[16:38] <daftykins> Gamoder_: what?
[16:38] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: some problem with 32-bit libraries..since i'm running a 64 bit os , etc..got it from the steam website,which redirected me to software centre
[16:39] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: wont try it..
[16:39] <daftykins> yeah don't use a manual download
[16:39] <k1l> scarecrowdiablo1: we cant help you if we need to guess what the issue is. please give exact details and whole errormessages in pastebin
[16:39] <daftykins> just run the above command
[16:39] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: will log-in using the other system..
[16:40] <k1l> scarecrowdiablo1: and steam works fine for me on 64bit OS so please share the exact errors
[16:40] <Gamoder_> daftykins: A version of rm accepting only e.g. rm bla*.doc, but not rm bla *.doc
[16:40] <Gamoder_> but well ... as I thought of it, the *-expansion is done by the bash, right?
[16:40] <Gamoder_> so this cannot be done probably
[16:40] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: trying it..
[16:41] <k1l> steam is not doing all the work to port the games to linux just to people on linux run wine again m(
[16:44] <scarecrowdiablo1> daftykins: worked like a charm!..thanks a ton!
[16:44] <daftykins> np
[16:44] <scarecrowdiablo1> k1l : sorry about that..thanks :)
[16:53] <linux4u> ok, I am taring a file from an external drive to a sshfs mount point why is it taking up space on my local hdd?
[16:53] <linux4u> and the worst part is I cant find where it using up the space.
[16:53] <daftykins>  /tmp perhaps
[16:53] <linux4u> nope
[16:54] <linux4u> and whats weirder is the space stays taken up even after a reboot.
[16:55] <linux4u> the only way I can get the space back is to start the tar again and stop it right away.
[16:57] <ioria> linux4u, : /mnt  ?
[16:57] <i1x2n37> i made a usb boot stick with ubuntu using unetbootin. when i try to boot from it, i get a blank screen. can i make it somehow log all it tries to do to a textfile on the stick? otherwise this is impossible to troubleshoot
[16:57] <linux4u> hmm, interesting why there?
[16:58] <daftykins> i1x2n37: which OS did you make it with?
[16:58] <linux4u> its a osx thumbdrive
[16:58] <i1x2n37> daftykins: archlinux
[16:58] <ioria> linux4u, : the mount point
[16:58] <daftykins> i1x2n37: use 'dd' instead.
[16:58] <jmss> hi, does someone know how to install a non-pae kernel?
[16:58] <i1x2n37> known problems with unetbootin? i used it successfully in the past
[16:59] <jmss> the package without the pae suffix seems to install a pae kernel
[16:59] <linux4u> ioria, no its creating the files in the mount point but its also taking up space on the disk.
[16:59] <daftykins> jmss: everythings PAE nowadays.
[17:00] <jmss> daftykins, but if you use forcepae option in grub it will work on non-pae
[17:00] <gabb0> Hi! Xubuntu 14.04 fresh install. Is trim function enabled in this version? I have a 250Gb SSD.  Thanks.
[17:01] <ioria> linux4u, : did you edit  the fstab with  a permanent mount  point ?
[17:01] <k1l> gabb0: yes
[17:01] <gabb0> Kll thanks :)
[17:01] <k1l> gabb0: there should be a cronjob running trim from time to time
[17:01] <wa_r_ch_i__ld1> hey, anyone know how to query a bash program from rails?
[17:02] <wa_r_ch_i__ld1> or to install a bash program into a rails app
[17:02] <gabb0> Good to know. I've been on 12.04 the whole time. Don't care for 14.04 unity myself.. x tho, love it.
[17:02] <linux4u> hmm, it seems to not be doing it with a fat32 usb disk.
[17:02] <linux4u> could it be a bug in the hpfs(extfat) driver?
[17:03] <linux4u> but whats weird is I did another hpfs disk and it didnt seem to do that.
[17:03] <linux4u> and I have reproduced it a couple of times with the osx one.
[17:04] <gabb0> Is it good practice to do this on a fresh install?  ---> sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree
[17:04] <daftykins> gabb0: depends what you're trying to achieve
