[00:00] <Guest21070> wafflejock Could that be a problem? Is it because it is a notebook and not a laptop?
[00:00] <daftykins> andy__: read the MACs
[00:00] <daftykins> yep MAC addresses are unique per NIC
[00:01] <Nikesh> I just upgrade from 14.10 to 15.04 I usually use ALT+number key to change which channel I am viewing in my terminal with irssi (equivalent to /win <number>) but this isn't working.. what has changed? How do I address this?
[00:01] <RepThis1> time to make the switch to ubuntu again, hopefully 15.04 recognises my 2nd graphics card and monitor.
[00:01] <andy__> I did see the mac addresses under the network connections.  They did not seem to be useful.
[00:02] <andy__> The ifconfig seemed more useful.
[00:02] <daftykins> RepThis1: doubt it, having two in at once is a bit niche
[00:02] <wafflejock> Guest21070, not really just a matter of different names for almost the same stuff regarding notebook/netbook/laptop/ultrabook ultimately all that matters is the chipsets/hardware under the hood, atom processors are meant to be low power so I wouldn't imagine that by itself would be great for graphics performance but typically you'll have an Intel chipset at least for doing basic GPU tasks
[00:02] <andy__> It shows eth0 has sent 0 bytes, and eth1 has sent plenty.
[00:03] <acz32> RepThis1: boot into a livecd environment first and check
[00:04] <RepThis1> i dont boot into your peoples fancy live cd enviroments, i am a man, i go in blindly and with force.
[00:04] <acz32> RepThis1: so you're stupid, ok.
[00:04] <acz32> good luck
[00:05] <RepThis1> no i just got pro terminal skills
[00:06] <RepThis1> and am not afraid to flail around for a bit
[00:06] <Guest21070> wafflejock Yeah, thats what I was thinking. I wanted to make sure my intel chipset was supported but I got lost in the terminology; specifically in what my terminal was saying and what the ubuntu website was saying. They didn't exactly match up.
[00:06] <wafflejock> Guest21070, my laptop is an i7 2.4 GHz with Intel HD 4000 graphics chipset (not great GPU but fine for HD video), so the CPU in here is faster but also more power hungry and creates a lot of heat whereas the machine you have will likely last longer on battery and be comfortable to use without producing a lot of heat, it may just be that the machine you're working on doesn't have the "horsepower" to deal with the kind of video yo
[00:06] <wafflejock> u're trying to watch in which case there's not a lot you can do...
[00:07] <Finetunrda_> hello folks, I'm having an issue with colors being reversed in a fresh vivid inastall. not all colors just a handful, like red is blue and blue is red and teal was yellow and yellow was teal. any thoughts?
[00:07] <Guest21070> say again
[00:07] <wafflejock> Guest21070, regarding support typically the intel drivers shipped with Ubuntu work out of the box without the need to activate or anything, with other GPUs you can install alternative drivers but intel it's pretty much built in
[00:09] <utu8o> will Ubuntu work well on a Microsoft Surface?
[00:09] <bazhang> utu8o, ask in #ubuntu-touch
[00:10] <daftykins> some report success, but there's a certain risk to buying a device with Microsoft as the brand and expecting Linux to work well on it
[00:10] <postmodern> how can you get `dpkg-reconfigure` to assume yes to all interactive questions?
[00:10] <daftykins> utu8o: ^ i would only buy stuff that's meant to work.
[00:10] <Guest21070> wafflejock This isn't a out of the box experience.  I'm attempting to fix because Microsoft doesn't support XP any longer.
[00:10] <alazare619> anyone know of a virt-management application for lxc for windows
[00:11] <k1l> utu8o: depends on you beeing able to boot other OS on that device at all.
[00:11] <alazare619> my server is headless and rather then ssh it would be nice
[00:12] <wafflejock> Guest21070, yeah if you're using plain Ubuntu you may consider installing the Unity Tweak tool and disable some of the features of the interface that'll lag the graphics performance like the blurring of stuff behind the dash, or consider using Ubuntu Gnome edition or even something lighter like Xubuntu so there isn't as much overhead for the desktop environment itself, 1GB is pretty limited too wouldn't be surprised if it's hitt
[00:12] <wafflejock> ing the HDD/swap a lot since it probably eats through that RAM pretty fast
[00:13] <Guest21070> wafflejock I am using Xubuntu
[00:13] <wafflejock> ah k well that eliminates all of that
[00:15] <Guest21070> wafflejock What about the MBR?... The computer was being used by my gf's daughter without virus protection.
[00:17] <wafflejock> Guest21070, sorry not sure what you're asking there what about the MBR?
[00:17] <Guest21070> wafflejock Master boot record
[00:17] <Guest21070> wafflejock It had a browser hijacker
[00:18] <Guest21070> wafflejock It had a browser hijacker and I couldn't reinstall Win7
[00:20] <Guest21070> wafflejock I fought it with virus protection, but probably didn't fully remove the damage. I'm wondering if it could have possibly affected the Maste Boot Record
[00:20] <wafflejock> Guest21070,  right, I'm aware of what you meant by the acronym but what's the question exactly? worried about possible corruption or something?  if during the install you choose to wipe the disk I believe this includes wiping out and rewriting the MBR but I'm not sure on the details with that better to ask the room in general if you need help on that
[00:21] <Guest21070> OK LETS set that aside
[00:23] <Guest21070> wafflejock Yeah, I've looked for solutions, but I'm still stuck on verifying my driver and hardware are compatable.. Do you know how to do that??
[00:23] <wafflejock> Guest21070, yeah not sure about Xubuntu (have limited experience with it) but most Ubuntu installs you have "Additonional Drivers" (was called jockey at least at some point) but if you can pull that up can see if you have any options for other GPU drivers but aside from that only other thing I can think is to put a CPU control on there for performance vs on demand vs powersave mode which I assume the processor probably supports
[00:23] <wafflejock> (some kind of power stepping)
[00:24] <wafflejock> Guest21070, you can get a list of what hardware is using what kernel modules as is with, lspci -k
[00:25] <Guest21070> wafflejock. ok working on it
[00:35] <trql44> open source software is patriarchy, its software whose code is left bare and naked like an objectified woman being raped
[00:35] <Guest21070> wafflejock. no additional drives available working on hardware list.
[00:36] <Guest21070> wafflejock Got list. How to send 2 u?
[00:39] <urielsalis_> Hi, how can I install steam on Ubuntu Gnome 14.04.02 x64, tried before but I always have to reinstall when changing to propiertary drivers
[00:39] <EriC^^> urielsalis_: sudo apt-get install --reinstall steam
[00:39] <urielsalis_> Eric__, this is a fresh install, literally 10 mins ago
[00:40] <EriC^^> urielsalis_: ok, sudo apt-get install steam
[00:40] <EriC^^> !steam
[00:40] <EriC^^> !info steam
[00:40] <wafflejock> Guest21070, you can just post it to pastebin (or paste.ubuntu.com), ultimately though just googling for various device ids typically helps you find the most relevant info so long as you can identify what device(s) you're interested in (in this case any sort of GPU) if you can't find what you want in the list feel free to share it
[00:40] <EriC^^> urielsalis_: open settings > software & updates and enable multiverse first
[00:40] <urielsalis_> I read that, but it shows errors about 32 bit libs and before it was showing a segmentation fault and askubuntu said that I should use propiertary drivers (after installing with open source one)
[00:40] <wafflejock> Guest21070, device id is the chunk of numbers at the beginning of each line
[00:41] <EriC^^> urielsalis_: ok give it a shot and let me know
[00:42] <EriC^^> urielsalis_: did you install the proprietary drivers?
[00:42] <Guest21070> wafflejock Will try to google, first.
[00:42] <urielsalis_> Eric__, not yet
[00:42] <EriC^^> urielsalis_: do you know how?
[00:43] <urielsalis_> Eric__, usc, edit, software sources, additional drivers, fglrx-updates
[00:45] <urielsalis_> Eric__, tank, it works now. I was forgetting of enabling multiverse ID-10-T :P
[00:45] <EriC^^> urielsalis_: ok :)
[00:46] <EriC^^> urielsalis_: if you find that it runs hot, you could give fglrx a shot, they seemed to run better on mine
[00:46] <urielsalis_> ok, thanks :)
[00:46] <EriC^^> sure
[00:52] <neldogz> So i booted my Ubuntu 15.04 system today and i see the following message: Welcome to emergency mode!
[00:52] <neldogz> Can anyone help me with this?
[00:52] <EriC^^> does it say anything before that?
[00:52]  * daftykins would restart
[00:52] <EriC^^> yeah that's worth a shot
[00:55] <neldogz> restarting brings me back to the same message
[00:55] <EriC^^> neldogz: are there any other messages?
[00:56] <neldogz> before the emergency mode message I saw a message that stated: A start job is running for dev-sdb1.device and theres a count down 1min 30s
[00:56] <EriC^^> ok, do you have a separate /boot?
[00:56] <daftykins> do i smell encryption?
[00:57] <neldogz> EriC^^: everything is installed under / but this system was installed on Raid 0.. no encryption, no LVM
[00:57] <daftykins> i'd probably fire up a live session and see if they've desynced
[00:57] <daftykins> er, if RAID 1
[00:57] <daftykins> or just check the disk health
[00:58] <neldogz> daftykins: it's raid 0 and they are SSD's
[00:58]  * daftykins wonders why people do that
[00:58] <neldogz> daftykins: mostly just because its possible :)
[00:59] <BigJ> I'm having a problem with my laptop screen waking after suspend.  I tried installing a new driver through the intel graphics installer but it says my distro is not suppourted.  I downloaded the correct version for amd64 version of ubuntu
[00:59] <daftykins> yeah i would not recommend ever trying to use this pesky intel driver installer
[00:59] <daftykins> just keep your kernel up to date and all will be well
[00:59] <BigJ> daftykins, ya I am running the i915 driver right now
[01:00] <BigJ> I tried installing xorg-server-intel pacakge in apt-get but there are broken dependencies
[01:01] <Guest21070> wafflejock. Thanks. Googling that ufirst piece of hardware I eventually found a link through several links and threads to a possilble solution for this model computer. But, it is getting late to update you any further. Again, Thank You and Goodnight!
[01:01] <BigJ> daftykins, I am running a 3.16.0-34 kernel
[01:02] <neldogz> daftykins: fixed, the message was referencing dev-sdb1.. thats acually a diffrent drive
[01:02] <neldogz> daftykins: removed it from fstab.. booted fie
[01:02] <neldogz> *fine
[01:02] <BigJ> daftykins, and a pretty legacy machine
[01:02] <daftykins> weird, two SSDs should surely be sda and sdb
[01:03] <jnoob22> anyone have any weird issues after upgrading from 14.x to 15.x?
[01:03] <neldogz> my SSD's are /dev/sda /dev/sde
[01:03] <daftykins> O_O
[01:03] <daftykins> a fan of vowels eh, neldogz ? :)
[01:04] <neldogz> jnoob22: yes, acutally filed a bug report today due to an issue amd64-microcode
[01:04] <neldogz> daftykins: lol didnt even notice it till you pointed it out haha
[01:04] <wafflejock> Guest21070, no problem good luck, and good night as well
[01:17] <jnoob22> neldogz, is it a critical issue?
[01:17] <jnoob22> neldogz, i guess... is it critical enough to keep from upgrading until fixed?
[01:18] <neldogz> jnoob22: I have an AMD processor and chipset on my system and Ubuntu 15.04 now provides a proprietary driver for the microcode.. I installed it and then was experiencing intermittant boot issues. Removed it and was fine.
[01:19] <neldogz> intermitent*
[01:20] <neldogz> jnoob22: i still recommend upgrading. But if you have an AMD system prob best to stay away from that driver for now.
[01:21] <jnoob22> neldogz, thanks for the heads up. mine is amd64. I better hold off for a bit.
[01:21] <jnoob22> im still at 14.04.2
[01:21] <neldogz> jnoob22: 14.04.2 is rock solid :)
[01:22] <daftykins> as long as it's on 3.13
[01:22] <jnoob22> neldogz, yeah it's my work laptop.
[01:22] <jnoob22> works like a charm, have never had any issues as long as i kept it up to date -- which i have been doing this time around.
[01:28] <neldogz> jnoob22: this is the bug i reported today: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/amd64-microcode/+bug/1450188
[01:29] <jnoob22> thanks neldogz
[01:33] <neldogz> jnoob22: anytime :)
[01:33] <kk0710> Hey guys, I was looking for a plex how to for 14.04 desktop but can't seem to find anything, any ideas?  I want to test it out with my lapotp before I make a stand alone server
[01:35] <mjollnerd1> I'm trying to replace XKBOPTIONS=""    with       XKBOPTIONS="numpad:microsoft"     in a file called /etc/default/keyboard.   I'm doing    sed 's/XKBOPTIONS=""/XKBOPTIONS="numpad:microsoft"/g' /etc/default/keyboard         but it's not working.  Am I doing something wrong?
[01:40] <pronto> trying to get ubuntu working under virtualbox with the screen-size options ; trying to run the VBoxLinuxAdditions.run ; getting Warning: unknown version of the X Window System installed.  Not installing
[01:44] <tlt> pronto, you should 'sudo su -' and run the VBoxLinuxAdditions as such. Then type exit to get out from root, and reboot the machine.
[01:47] <pronto> tlt: i did that
[01:48] <Ben64> pronto: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-guest-dkms
[01:48] <tlt> is it a new additions cd pronto ?
[01:48] <tlt> ah you don't use the debs from site I get it
[01:49] <Ben64> don't need to run anything, everything you need is in the repository already
[01:50] <pronto> ben64 virtualbox-guest-dkms already at latest version
[01:51] <dylan_> holaa
[01:52] <Felishia> how do I send all my old linux computer into my new linux computer?
[01:53] <Felishia> my old one runs kubuntu... but not KDE but fluxbox because it's dying
[01:53] <Felishia> new one runs Linux Mint
[01:53] <Felishia> I need to export a lot of stuff :<
[01:53] <aeon-ltd> Felishia: back up the data and move that
[01:53] <TiK> Felishia: samba share.. copy the files you want
[01:54] <TiK> aeon-ltd: that is pretty vague
[01:54] <Felishia> how can I just samba share all my old computer content?
[01:54] <Felishia> not just one folder
[01:54] <TiK> Felishia: I would setup a samba network and copy them over.
[01:54] <Bashing-om> Felishia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2159449 <-easiest way to cp files 'tween two 'buntus that share the same router/house (Morbius1) .
[01:55] <TiK> thats how I moved my mp3s
[01:55] <Felishia> worst they're not even the same architecture XD
[01:56] <Felishia> will have to redownload everything I know
[01:58] <somsip> Felishia: just set up ssh and use scp or rsync would be better. Quicker and easier than samba
[01:58] <Felishia> how do I get my ip? :p
[01:58] <somsip> Felishia: ifconfig
[01:58] <daftykins> IO won't be quicker :)
[01:59] <somsip> daftykins: maybe not, but setup probably will be
[02:00] <urgent_need_help> hey, sorry for my nick. My computer booted on read-only mode due to disk errors and I managed to login now to make a last urgent backup before hdd totally dies. Problem is: I cant mount usb drive because my / is read-only. Do you know how to mount a usb drive without having a rw filesystem ?
[02:01] <daftykins> mount it to an existing empty folder, perhaps /mnt
[02:02] <urgent_need_help> but I would need rw on that folder right? my / is read only
[02:02] <daftykins> pass.
[02:02] <daftykins> are you in a live session right now?
[02:02] <urgent_need_help> yes
[02:02] <tlt> urgent_need_help, aren't you root?
[02:02] <urgent_need_help> yes, i am root
[02:02] <daftykins> urgent_need_help: unrelated but run "sudo apt-get install pastebinit smartmontools" then "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit"
[02:03] <Felishia> Bashing-om, problem is that I can't copy directories :p
[02:03] <urgent_need_help> sudo: unable to open /var/lib/sudo/notebook/1: Read-only file system
[02:03] <urgent_need_help> W: Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[02:03] <urgent_need_help> E: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt/
[02:04] <urgent_need_help> hdd is mounted as read only
[02:04] <daftykins> urgent_need_help: yeah so that's *NOT* a live session
[02:04] <daftykins> :P
[02:04] <urgent_need_help> oh
[02:04] <daftykins> a live would be booting from a flash drive or DVD
[02:04] <urgent_need_help> you mean by usb?
[02:04] <gnomitsu> delete the lock file
[02:04] <urgent_need_help> how?
[02:05] <daftykins> gnomitsu: that is not an option
[02:05] <daftykins> urgent_need_help: pretty sure you're out of luck in this situation
[02:05] <urgent_need_help> I guess so
[02:05] <daftykins> you need to boot a live session so you can copy this data off
[02:06] <urgent_need_help> is there a way to create a memory disk just to mount usb drive?
[02:06] <daftykins> pass
[02:06] <urgent_need_help> IDK if this hdd will last another boot, it took hours to make it power on
[02:06] <daftykins> they usually have more chance when they've been given a break
[02:06] <daftykins> why not sign up to dropbox and upload the files instead, if small?
[02:06] <daftykins> or some similar service
[02:07] <urgent_need_help> awesome!!
[02:07] <urgent_need_help> thanks!!!
[02:07] <urgent_need_help> \o/
[02:07] <daftykins> ^_^ np
[02:07] <urgent_need_help> yes, the files are small enough
[02:07] <daftykins> anywho the above commands would let someone see if your disk is totally toast, which it sounds like it is
[02:08] <urgent_need_help> smartmontools
[02:08] <urgent_need_help> noted it here
[02:08] <daftykins> gotta sleep, laters \o
[02:08] <urgent_need_help> but gparted already warns that "DISK FAILURE IS IMMINENT"
[02:08] <urgent_need_help> see ya, thanks
[02:09] <urgent_need_help> 3712 sectors waiting to be remapped (from smart)
[02:09] <urgent_need_help> this is dead
[02:09] <TiK> no
[02:09] <TiK> but it might spread

[02:10] <daftykins> yep that's gone.
[02:10] <vempyre> hi, since my last update (10hrs ago) tor browser doesn't work. I have tried a re-install, but this doesn't make it work either, i've searchd for solutions but none seem to work
[02:10] <Felishia> vempyre, did you purge it?
[02:10] <Felishia> sudo apt-get remove --purge package
[02:11] <James`> Hello
[02:11] <vempyre> nope, trying now
[02:12] <vempyre> Felishia this is what i get: Unable to locate package
[02:13] <Felishia> but is it installed? :o
[02:13] <Felishia> well clear you apt cache
[02:13] <Felishia> forgot how to do that o.o
[02:13] <Felishia> hey gauys?
[02:13] <vempyre> it was..
[02:15] <Felishia> how do I ssh my old computer electricity to my new computer since the second is not plugged and has 5 minutes remaining!!!
[02:16] <vempyre> i have tried killall etc. but alas, no luck. some process happened when I Purged just then, and was prompted to autoremove so i did... so i can only see?
[02:16] <XenophonF> what knob do i need to frob in order to get update-initramfs to include /sbin/cryptsetup in the initrd?
[02:16] <Felishia> vempyre, try autoremove
[02:16] <gzcwnk> anybody setup bind9 on ubuntu as a caching server and can help?
[02:16] <James`> Could anyone help me setup vsftpd?
[02:16] <gzcwnk> i cant get it to serve clients
[02:16] <Felishia> vempyre, sudo apt-get clean
[02:17] <vempyre> nothing happened in get clean
[02:17] <gzcwnk> i have followed this but it doesnt work,  https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/dns-configuration.html
[02:17] <gzcwnk> ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:17] <XenophonF> booting using the initrd as is results in the following error: /scripts/local-top/cryptroot: line 1: /sbin/cryptsetup: not found
[02:18] <gzcwnk> doh
[02:18] <James`> can anyone help me configure vsftpd?
[02:19] <fawksmulder> Can somebody please help me?   It won't let me upload files to a folder
[02:20] <Felishia> GUYS HELP ME!!!
[02:20] <Felishia> can someone help me to help them?! T_T
[02:21] <XenophonF> hm, this might be the cause of my missing cryptsetup - http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/178666/sbin-cryptsetup-not-found-on-boot
[02:21] <XenophonF> summary is that /etc/crypttab needs to exist before running update-initramfs
[02:22] <pavlos> Sharkq, http://www.liquidweb.com/kb/how-to-install-and-configure-vsftpd-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts/
[02:22] <XenophonF> which i think i did, but now i'm not sure
[02:22] <fawksmulder> "There is no locale defined for the combination of language and country you have selected."
[02:23] <Sharkq> HELP ME
[02:23] <fawksmulder> so just because I don't want stupid-ass localized language (which most non-english countries don't) I can't select my locale?
[02:23] <Sharkq> I CANT UPLOAD FILES TO MY VSFTPD SERVER
[02:23] <Sharkq> IT SAYS PERMISSION DENIED
[02:23]  * Felishia hides
[02:24] <Sharkq> I WILL PAY YOU $10 WORTH OF BITCOINS IF YOU HELP ME
[02:24] <gzcwnk> hehehe
[02:24] <XenophonF> Sharkq: dude, post a gist with the vsftpd config and give us a directory listing while you're at it
[02:24] <Sharkq> PLEASE CONSIDER THIS PROPOSAL
[02:24] <XenophonF> if it's a permissions problem, have you checked the permissions?
[02:24] <tnkhanh> good morning
[02:26] <fawksmulder> So
[02:26] <fawksmulder> Ubuntu won't allow you to pick your locale unless you choose to have localized language
[02:27] <tlt> Sharkq, the logged in user has to be in the same group (guid) as the folder's write permissions
[02:27] <vempyre> Felishia, thanks
[02:27] <fawksmulder> and the Ubuntu.com website has no way of e-mailing the developers to let them know of this problem
[02:27] <fawksmulder> Ok, I'm done with this piece of shit OS then.
[02:27] <tlt> or uid alternately
[02:27] <Felishia> :o it worked
[02:28] <tlt> but I guess the group is vsftp or something and that should make all write access people write to it? Or does that user have limited access specifically?
[02:36] <gzcwnk> would anyone know how to make bind9 on ubuntu14 answer dns queries?
[02:36] <gzcwnk> the ubuntu docs seem to be wrong
[02:40] <SudoSteve> Derp?
[02:45] <linxxc_> hello
[02:49] <yankov> man, another update and ubuntu crashed again. Doesn’t let me in. Loging screen in loop. .xsession-errors are fine, .profile is fine, permissions on .Xauthority are fine. What a piece of crap :(
[02:49] <yankov> login screen*
[02:50] <yankov> i dont think there was a single update without an issue
[02:50] <Ben64> yankov: this channel isn't for complaints
[02:51] <yankov> Ben64: basically it’s a question about what else can that be? my frustration got mixed in, sorry
[02:51] <XenophonF> the vsftpd business is likely due to it chrooting into the ftp user's home directory
[02:51] <Ben64> yankov: give some details, what version of ubuntu, what updates, what video card, etc
[02:51] <XenophonF> i tried to convince the guy not to use ftp
[02:52] <gzcwnk> is there a good ubuntu users group maillist?
[02:52] <yankov> Ben64: 14.10,  just ran all the latest updates when updates notifier told me to.  EVGA GTX660
[02:53] <Bashing-om> yankov: Most often we see this as a result of an installed proprietary driver gets broke in an update . 3rd party software is not ubuntu .
[02:54] <nmatrix9> Anyone know where I can get a stable decent dock for kde?
[02:54] <yankov> Bashing-om: I had those too, but in that case my resolution would be screwed (i have a propriatary driver from nvidia). In the current case resolution and image on my screen are all good. It’s just that login screen is in loop
[02:56] <Bashing-om> yankov: Looping back to the login screen is one symptom of the kernel not able to load the GUI due to no driver available to drive the GUI . does ' sudo lshw -C display ' show a driver in the config line ?
[02:59] <backbox> boa noite
[02:59] <backbox> tem alguem na sala

[03:01] <backbox> obrigado
[03:02] <Savior> 3
[03:04] <wafflejock> Sharkq, have had troubles with that in the past myself, would wonder if you really should be using it or rather use scp instead? is there a reason you need to use SFTP
[03:05] <Seven_Six_Two> having some trouble with hp g60 laptop. downloading large files drops laptop (and all other wifi devices) off wifi. I then have to restart networking to reconnect. It does it reliably.
[03:06] <Seven_Six_Two> I was doing an upgrade, and noticed that it had stopped, so I did ctrl+c. Now I still have an ip. I can ping the router, but no farther.
[03:06] <backbox_> opa
[03:06] <Seven_Six_Two> I'm on my desktop now (same network), so my internet is ok.
[03:06] <backbox_> como faco pra entrar no ubuntu-br
[03:08] <Seven_Six_Two> I just tried to upgrade again, while watching th wifi client list on router status page, and my laptop and phone disconnect at exactly the same time.
[03:09] <aeon-ltd> !portuguese
[03:09] <MobileRoey> hi
[03:09] <Seven_Six_Two> When I restart network-manager, my laptop and phone reconnect to my router at the same time. So my laptop is somehow jamming wifi.
[03:09] <MobileRoey> so question...I'm on Kubuntu 15.04 and when I issue "startx", I get the error message "(EE) X server aborted because of unsafe environment".  What is this about, and how can I resolve it?
[03:11] <xangua> MobileRoey: start lightdm
[03:11] <MobileRoey> xangua:  hmm, it's on SDDM
[03:11] <MobileRoey> xangua:  well... I mean I started it with runlevel 3
[03:12] <MobileRoey> xangua:  If I start it with X, then I get this screen that lets me specify the environment (KDE, XFCE ,FVWM, etc.) but there's no username/password field
[03:12] <gzcwnk> anyone tried to get a bind9 caching server working on ubuntu14?
[03:19] <epx998> in grub at bootup, if i edit the start config by pressing 'e'  -  which line would i add 'single' to boot into single user mode?
[03:20] <matias> dd
[03:21] <Bashing-om> export: This line similar too: linux    /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic root=UUID=217ed9a7-e11a-4e32-8c05-992e8c8932b6 ro  quiet splash $vt_handoff .
[03:21] <EriC^^> epx998: the kernel line, linux /boot/vmlinuz...
[03:22] <EriC^^> i don't think that works anymore though
[03:22] <epx998> yup found it
[03:22] <epx998> it worked
[03:22] <EriC^^> are you using 15.04?
[03:30] <alazare619> how do i automount a software raid using mdadm
[03:31] <Seven_Six_Two> grr. it's getting annoying doing sudo service network-manager restart    over and over and over and over.
[03:33] <gzcwnk> anyone setup bind9 caching server on ubuntu14?
[03:33] <XenophonF> ok so this is really annoying - i can't figure out why update-initramfs isn't copying /sbin/cryptsetup to the initrd
[03:38] <benh> hey
[03:38] <benh> weird stuff happened since I updated to vivid
[03:38] <benh> my local is always LANG=C
[03:38] <benh> regardless of what I have in /etc/default/locale
[03:39] <benh> or .pam_environment
[03:39] <benh> or anything else I could think of
[03:39] <benh> they all say en_AU.UTF-8
[03:39] <benh> but when I login, it reverts to C
[03:39] <benh> (which prevents gnome-terminal from working)
[03:39] <EriC^^> type locale -a
[03:39] <benh> and I can't figure out what the heck is going on
[03:40] <benh> EriC^^: they are all there including en_AU.utf8
[03:40] <benh> http://pastebin.ca/2985788
[03:40] <EriC^^> ok, type locale
[03:40] <benh> I've tried rebuilding them with locale-gen --force etc...
[03:41] <benh> EriC^^: http://pastebin.ca/2985789
[03:41] <benh> you see LANG=C
[03:41] <benh> I can't figure out what sets it
[03:41] <EriC^^> type locate locale.conf
[03:42] <benh> my /etc/default/locale is http://pastebin.ca/2985790
[03:42] <benh> EriC^^: nope, no such file, I created one earlier to test, didn't help, then took it out
[03:42] <benh> I've grepped for LANG= in /etc/, didn't lead to anything either
[03:42] <benh> created a new user, so no crap in the .files
[03:43] <benh> same deal, new user gets LANG=C
[03:43] <EriC^^> i think /etc/default/locale sets it
[03:43] <EriC^^> did you try rebooting maybe?
[03:43] <benh> plenty of times :)
[03:43] <benh> http://pastebin.ca/2985790 is my /etc/default/locale
[03:44] <benh> actually, /etc/init.d/exim4 contains LANG=C
[03:44] <benh> I'll take that out and reboot ... brb
[03:45] <XenophonF> hm, maybe i ought to be calling mkinitramfs instead of update-initramfs...
[03:48] <benh> EriC^^: nope, nothing helped
[03:48] <EriC^^> ok
[03:48] <EriC^^> i'll brb
[03:48] <benh> I am out of ideas ...
[03:48] <nicholosophy> When I click on an icon in the launcher it only shows one window by default. is there  a way to show all windows to choose from?
[03:52] <woodgrain> is there a CD <700MB Ubuntu installer .iso?
[03:52] <woodgrain> for a current 14.02.2 version?
[03:52] <xangua> !mini
[03:53] <woodgrain> xangua, thank you!
[03:54] <xangua> don't really see why you can not get a 2GB usb stick or a dvd
[03:54] <EriC^^> still there?
[03:55] <Mr_Sheesh> Some machines don't have any USB sockets, sadly
[03:55] <benh> EriC^^: yes
[03:55] <benh> EriC^^: i verified if I export LANG=en_AU.UTF-8
[03:55] <woodgrain> xangua, my mainboard won't boot off USB
[03:55] <benh> EriC^^: then do bash -l
[03:55] <benh> EriC^^: the new bash has LANG=C
[03:55] <woodgrain> and I don't have any blank DVD's right now.
[03:55] <benh> so something to do with the login scripts...
[03:55] <EriC^^> benh: check ~/.bashrc
[03:56] <woodgrain> xangua, do I want 14.02 or 14.10?
[03:56] <benh> EriC^^: nothing out of the ordinary there but it's pretty big
[03:56] <EriC^^> grep your home dir
[03:56] <benh> EriC^^: I created a new user "foo", same prolem
[03:56] <benh> EriC^^: grepped it's home dir (mine is too big :-), didn't find anything
[03:57] <benh> EriC^^: echo "LANG=" $LANG as first thing in .bashrc and it's C
[03:58] <EriC^^> .profile maybe?
[03:59] <EriC^^> something else is setting it i guess
[03:59] <benh> I checked all of these, I'm going to strace it I think :_)
[04:00] <EriC^^> ok
[04:01] <benh> it's already turned to "C" at the first line of .bashrc and .profile
[04:02] <EriC^^> update-locale LANG=<locale>
[04:05] <benh> EriC^^: did that many times ...
[04:05] <EriC^> ok
[04:07] <EriC^> benh: did you try the gui settings for language?
[04:07] <benh> yes
[04:08] <spill_76> Trying to install 14.04, currently running the live CD of a USB stick and all is well, yet when I try to install, it won't show my hard drive. any thoughts?
[04:08] <gzcwnk> spill76 what hardware?
[04:09] <spill_76> running a older Gateway machine, 2 Western Digital 1Gig SATA drives, they show fine in the live CD as well.
[04:09] <Shed-34046> Hi I was wondering would it hurt to swap my hdd out of my windows 8.0 laptop for another one and install ubuntu on that? this laptop has UEFI BIOS
[04:10] <gzcwnk> spill-76 try 12.02 see if that see sthe hd
[04:10] <gzcwnk> or a different linux
[04:10] <gzcwnk> or it maybe its ignoring ti as it cant see any free space?
[04:10] <EriC^> spill_76: type sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda
[04:10] <gzcwnk> gtg sorry
[04:10] <Shed-34046> My laptop has intel pentium b960, intel hd grapihcs, and 4GB DDR3
[04:11] <EriC^> Shed-34046: no it would be fine
[04:12] <spill_76> @Eric^ it outputted a good amount, what am I looking for exactly?
[04:12] <Shed-34046> EriC^ so swaping it out for another HDD to put ubuntu is fine? what about like one month use ubuntu, next the windows hdd, and so on?
[04:12] <EriC^> spill_76: first 4 lines or so
[04:12] <EriC^> is it msdos or gpt?
[04:12] <spill_76> Partition table scann MBR: MBR only BSD: not present APM: not present  GPT: not present
[04:12] <Shed-34046> EriC^ you talking to me?
[04:12] <EriC^> Shed-34046: no
[04:13] <EriC^> Shed-34046: you could do that if you want
[04:13] <benh> ah
[04:13] <benh> it's good at the beginning of /etc/profile
[04:13]  * benh hunts
[04:15] <spill_76> @Eric^ it also says Found invalid GPT and valid MBR; converting MBR to GPT format in memory.
[04:15] <spill_76> then it lists my drives below this as well as the partitions I created on the main drive.
[04:16] <benh> ahhh
[04:16] <EriC^> spill_76: ok, did it used to have windows8?
[04:16] <benh> EriC^: some crap in /etc/profile.d/...
[04:16] <EriC^> vte.sh?
[04:16] <spill_76> trying to dual book with Windows7, thats installed and running fine.
[04:16] <spill_76> dual boot that is. ;)
[04:16] <EriC^> spill_76: ok, was it originally windows 8?
[04:17] <spill_76> no, has always been win7
[04:17] <EriC^> oh ok, sometimes if gpt was converted to msdos, stray gpt can confuse the installer
[04:17] <EriC^> it's worth a try if you want, sudo fixparts /dev/sda
[04:18] <benh> EriC^: nah, some stupid stuff installed by an internal IBM package from hell
[04:18] <benh> bbl
[04:20] <spill_76> hmm, Warning: 0xEE partition doesn't start on sector 1. This can cause problems
[04:20] <spill_76> in some OSes.
[04:20] <spill_76> ?
[04:20] <EriC^> no problem

[04:50] <somsip> !manual | melissa_ (has a general overview that might be useful)
[04:51] <melissa_> thanks ubottu so far I like it a lot better than windows
[04:55] <melissa_> ubottu I got the manual TY
[04:56] <N3X15> Anyone know of a way to force-kill zombie processes beyond killing the parent?  I've got an entire zombie process group sitting under init and they're not getting reaped.  They're also locking up a fuse mountpoint.
[05:09] <N3X15> Picture of proof of zombies not being reaped by init.  http://i.imgur.com/M7k7eXK.png
[05:12] <RepThis1> Hey guys is there anything that can replace the unity launcher?
[05:13] <Bevo> Weirdest problem on 15.04 I cant get to certain google ip's (youtube for an example) i can ping www.google.com but not google.com which is strange because they resolve to the same ip address: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10948947/
[05:13] <somsip> RepThis1: any WM you like
[05:14] <RepThis1> somsip: im new enough to not know any beyond x11, right?
[05:15] <al2o3-cr> RepThis1: try i3 if you like the tile effect ;p
[05:15] <somsip> RepThis1: I don't undertstand your question. This is a list of available WMs. Do some research, find one you like, and try it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_X_window_managers
[05:15] <RepThis1> although not to long ago i was watching a video and they were talking about some window manager that people uses that would like spit there windows across screen/s  or something?
[05:15] <somsip> !flavors | RepThis1 (aternatively, try some of the supplied desktop-* packages)
[05:16] <RepThis1> well i actually saw something but was wondering if there was anything else. The software they were talking about was this. http://glx-dock.org/
[05:16] <somsip> RepThis1: you can install that on top of a number of WMs
[05:17] <RepThis1> somsip: ok, but is there anything else like this? im not talking about Desktop environments like kde, xfce, gnome.
[05:18] <somsip> RepThis1: there are a number of different docks available, yes.
[05:19] <RepThis1> somsip: what are the popular ones? is cario-dock one?
[05:19] <al2o3-cr> RepThis1: yep
[05:19] <al2o3-cr> RepThis1: also docky
[05:20] <somsip> RepThis1: plank is another I'm aware of.
[05:21] <RepThis1> somsip: al2o3-cr thanks for those projects.
[05:22] <al2o3-cr> RepThis1: yvw
[05:27] <N3X15> RepThis1, whatever you do, stay away from Kubuntu.  It's unstable as hell at the moment.
[05:29] <RepThis1> N3X15: lol, i just came from openSUSE on KDE and i gotta say i was not a fan, it was unpleasant/dated to look at and there were so many features to go through it was daunting. So i doubt I will ever go near that again until some time.
[05:30] <sxnil> evenin'
[05:35] <N3X15> Yeah
[05:36] <N3X15> I'm considering switching to gnome again just so I get a usable WM.
[05:36] <RepThis1> well thats unfortunate, I didnt realize cario-dock was gnome exclusive
[05:37] <N3X15> Might still work, some WMs support GTK.
[05:37] <N3X15> KDE, in particular.
[05:38] <RepThis1> well i logged out, then i clicked that area where you go to switch desktop enviroments, and under cario-dock it said something about gnome. after i logged in with that it gave me the ubuntu background but nothing else.
[05:39] <lpx> ？？
[05:39] <RepThis1> N3X15: then i rebooted and it hung. I was scared because if it hung i wasnt sure how to go about switching it back through a tty1 (alt-f1)
[05:41] <R13ose> How do I upgrade Python interface to libapt-pkg?
[05:43] <RepThis1> N3X15: oh wow thats odd, if i run it from commandline then its fine.
[05:43] <N3X15> Race condition?
[05:43] <RepThis1> now i just gotta figure out if im suppose to uninstall something to get rid of the unity bar, or just try to hide it
[05:55] <N3X15> well, gonna try rebooting the VM
[05:55] <N3X15> this is why I stay the hell away from C unless I know exactly what I'm doing.
[06:07] <andy__> Hi.
[06:10] <andy__> I ended up disabling the LAN on the motherboard from the bios.
[06:12] <andy__> I don't think that the driver for my LAN card works very well.
[06:12] <RepThis1> hey guys i was messing around with ccsm compizconfiguration session manager or something. is there a way to get back the default settings?
[06:14] <andy__> RepThis1, http://askubuntu.com/questions/36163/how-can-i-reset-compiz-to-the-default-settings
[06:15] <N3X15> andy__, which LAN card?
[06:15] <andy__> I need to figure that out so that I can find a driver for it.
[06:16] <somsip> andy__: sudo lshw -C network
[06:16] <N3X15> lspci packa- or that
[06:16] <RepThis1> oh god, i clicked reset to defaults and now everything is missing on my desktop except for my inwodws
[06:17] <RepThis1> thanks andy__ jesus!
[06:17] <andy__> PCI (sysfs)
[06:17] <somsip> !paste | andy__
[06:17] <somsip> andy__: and wait for it to finish - it takes a few seconds to lshw
[06:18] <andy__> RepThis1, I just did a search for some keywords in your question.
[06:18] <andy__> product: RTL8169 PCI Gigabit Ethernet Controller
[06:18] <andy__> ubottu, Isn't that a multi-line paste?
[06:21] <andy__> somsip What does that mean?
[06:21] <andy__> somsip !paste | andy ?
[06:21] <somsip> andy__: it looked like you were about to paste the entire output of lshw -C network. You didn't. No loss.
[06:22] <andy__> I tried the lshw command earlier and that was all I saw.
[06:22] <somsip> andy__: which has given you the answer to your last question '13:15 < andy__> I need to figure that out so that I can find a driver for it.'
[06:23] <andy__> I know.
[06:24] <andy__> Before, I didn't think it would actually tell me anything more than just that  I had a PCI card.
[06:24] <RepThis1> hey guys i had to reset to defaults with compiz configuration settings manager and i went to restart my computer but now all i have is my background and this pretty much it.
[06:25] <RepThis1> when i reset to defaults too everything disappeared, hence restarting the machine
[06:26] <andy__> Do you think that it was caused by the commands used to reset the computer?
[06:28] <RepThis1> i tried restarting unity but to no success, i also tried removing the .xauthority and .profile but to no success
[06:28] <RepThis1> should i just try to uninstall and reinstall unity?
[06:28] <andy__> That might not be very fun.
[06:29] <Guest82882> 123
[06:29] <cfhowlett> !test | Guest82882
[06:29] <Guest82882> ok
[06:29] <andy__> ubotto no bots.
[06:30] <N3X15> andy__, afaik ubottu is the official Ubuntu infobot
[06:31] <cfhowlett> N3X15, true
[06:31] <somsip> !bot | andy__
[06:31] <MortezaE> Hello what to do when freezing meanwhile dist upgrading?
[06:31] <MortezaE> should i restart system?
[06:31] <andy__> How did you trigger that bot response?
[06:32] <somsip> andy__: !{bot command}
[06:32] <somsip> !brain | andy__
[06:33] <RepThis1> looks like following most of these steps helped solve the problem http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/reset-unity-and-compiz-settings-in-ubuntu-14-04/
[06:33] <RepThis1> once again the terminal version of something seems to triumph over the gui option.
[06:33] <N3X15> RepThis1, yep, that's how Linux works.
[06:37] <neoxavier> hello, anybody experience with creating upstart job that can be run by specific user
[06:38] <andy__> neoxavier, Could you rephrase the question?
[06:38] <bojan> HEllo,Can anybody help me to install libreoffice 3.5.7 version on my ubuntu 12.04...Now its updated to 4.4.3 and i am not feel it is good to work
[06:38] <somsip> !libreoffice precise
[06:38] <somsip> !info libreoffice precise
[06:39] <somsip> bojan: that's the current version for 12.04. If you want something more up to date, you'd have to update to a newer version of ubuntu, or use a PPA to install a newer version of libreoffice
[06:41] <bojan> From where i can download that??
[06:41] <somsip> bojan: er...just reread your question. You've already installed 4.4.3 and it's not working right? Where did you get it from?
[06:41] <bojan> somsip:its not in the libreoffice official website
[06:41] <somsip> bojan: it's best to install packages from official ubuntu repos, not from other sources
[06:42] <bojan> somsip:sorry its libre <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:42] <somsip> bojan: is that the one you have or the one you want?
[06:42] <bojan> somsip:is that the one i have now...
[06:42] <somsip> bojan: and you want which version?
[06:42] <bojan> somsip:i want to revert back to 3.5.7
[06:42] <RepThis11> wow i just got a fantastic idea, you know how you browse online , specifically stuff relating to terminal commands and when you highlight and area and click search google for "xyz". What if there was an option to run that in a terminal by a simple mouseclick.
[06:42] <RepThis11> waaaaaaaat
[06:43] <somsip> RepThis11: hightlight with mouse, move to terminal, middle-click
[06:43] <somsip> bojan: did you download and install a .deb file?
[06:44] <bojan> somsip:but where can i get the exact libre 3.5.7 deb file??Am searching but i cant able to get that
[06:44] <RepThis11> somsip: to much effort should be done with less effort, this is the american way. besides, what if i have 9 monitors? do you want me to get carpel tunel quicker you jerk?
[06:44] <somsip> bojan: you don't 'get' it. You fix the mess you made, then reinstall from the official repo
[06:45] <neoxavier> @andy__ I want to create a service that can be run by specific user who is not sudoers
[06:46] <andy__> It sounds like it should be done with access control.
[06:46] <N3X15> !acl | neoxavier
[06:46] <N3X15> Oh, that's a Debian command
[06:46] <N3X15> :<

[06:48] <N3X15> Ah.
[06:48] <bojan_> somsip:when i install the ubuntu by default it was libre 3.5.7
[06:48] <somsip> bojan_: that's the current version, so that would make sense
[06:49] <neoxavier> so far I have change the upstart policy and I've put the job in $home/.init per http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#enabling but it seems does not pickup the service
[06:50] <bojan_> somsip:i have followed this http://paste.ubuntu.com/10949610/
[06:50] <bojan_> somsip:but it is updating to <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:50] <bojan_> somsip:please give me a good repos for installing 3.5.7
[06:50] <somsip> !ppa-purge | bojan_ (if you have installed from PPA, use this to remove the installed package, then reinstall from the official repo)
[06:51] <somsip> bojan_: or maybe ppa-purge will install the default package looking at the above. I've never used it so try and see

[06:52] <cfhowlett> andy__, no.  ubottu is the official #ubuntu bot.

[06:53] <bojan_> somsip:no need to add any ppa for default installation??
[06:53] <somsip> bojan_: no
[06:53] <cfhowlett> bojan_, defaults, by definition, NEVER need the ppa!
[06:54] <bojan_> somsip:If i purge libreoffice completely and reinstall using apt-get install libreoffice will install my libre 3.5.7
[06:54] <bojan_> ??
[06:55] <somsip> bojan_: you keep asking the same questions. I've told you what to do. Report back when you'

[06:57] <andy__> I don't know about that.
[06:57] <andy__> I just use chmod.
[06:58] <andy__> Why doesn't chmod suit your needs?
[07:03] <andy__> neoxavier, I am sorry I could not help you with your issue.
[07:03] <andy__> neoxavier, It seems too advanced for me.
[07:04] <neoxavier> andy__ ok cool anybody want to know ?
[07:04] <andy__> neoxavier, Upstart seems to be a very interesting tool though.
[07:06] <andy__> neoxavier, Are you addressing the group now?
[07:11] <neoxavier> yeah, I am still struggling with it :D I am able to run it with sudo users

[07:15] <kokut> Hello, i'm trying to boot my ubuntu installation and it doesn't show video after the loading screen, i would normally boot into the live DVD and try something from there but i don't have it anymore, is there anything i can try?
[07:15] <cfhowlett> !nomodeset | kokut
[07:19] <neoxavier> anyone good with upstart or initctl ?
[07:21] <kokut> cfhowlett: that link doesnt show what do i have to add after the linux /boot it was lost when imageshack started charging
[07:22] <maciej> hello
[07:23] <cfhowlett> kokut, oops.  right.   didn't know the images were no longer available.  sorry.  ask in channel for someone to give details of nomodeset
[07:23] <maciej> op
[07:23] <kokut> cfhowlett: i remember i installed the latest nvidia drivers before shutting down the computer
[07:23] <kokut> last argument of the line is $vt_handoff
[07:23] <kokut> should i remove that?
[07:24] <cfhowlett> kokut, gotta ask someone else.  I'm not familiar enough with nomodeset to know such details.
[07:28] <TomyWork> kubuntu 14.04: i kept thinking resume-from-hibernation failed entirely, but when logged in again, plasma-desktop instantly froze because it tried to access a network share that was still mounted but obviously lost connection during hibernation.
[07:29] <Neo9> if i want to install older apache version which is not their in the Ubuntu repositories, how can i proceed ?  i need  "apache 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7"
[07:29] <depesz> hi. I downloaded 3 files from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/.... - *(.dsc, *.orig.tar.bz2 and *.debian.tar.xz
[07:29] <depesz> how do I make .deb out of it ?
[07:30] <somsip> Neo9: really, install it on a VM. It will be an easier solution than trying to use a PPA to downgrade and pin
[07:30] <somsip> !packaging | depesz
[07:30] <depesz> somsip: that's huge doc, with many links.
[07:31] <somsip> depesz: it's a huge subject, with many facets
[07:31] <depesz> isn't there a simple 1/2 command version?
[07:31] <barq> During startup I run a script. The script calls a second script, but fails to do so, and says permission denied. I noticed that I lack permissions on the cli as well when I do thinks such as mkdir or copy. How can I increase my permissino or resolve the error?
[07:31] <depesz> I don't want to build many packages - just libcgcrypt11, and that's all.
[07:31] <depesz> libgcrypt11
[07:31] <somsip> depesz: doesn't the launchpad package offer a PPA where it is pre-built?
[07:31] <Neo9> somsip: where i can exact version "apache 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7".
[07:32] <Neo9> somsip: where i can get exact version "apache 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7".
[07:33] <depesz> somsip: not sure how to find it.
[07:33] <somsip> !info apache2 precise
[07:33] <somsip> !ppa | depesz (search on here)
[07:33] <kokut> cfhowlett: i just added nomodeset before quiet/splash and now it works fine, thank you
[07:33] <somsip> Neo9: looks like you'll get it with a clean install of 12.04
[07:33] <cfhowlett> kokut, happy2help!
[07:33] <kokut> also, gonna try upgrading ubuntu to the latest version and see if that fixes the issue, do you think its a good idea, cfhowlett?
[07:33] <somsip> Neo9: no, that's 1.7 Is that ok?
[07:34] <cfhowlett> kokut, I only use LTS so 14.04 works fine me.  YMMV
[07:34] <kokut> cfhowlett: i'm just wondering if upgrading to 15.04 might fix the issue
[07:39] <Neo9> somsip: yes
[07:40] <Neo9> somsip: i have to install same version apache in system. that is actual requirement. how can i get it.
[07:40] <somsip> Neo9: so that would be my suggestion. Run a VM with 12.04 installed on it. Use vagrant or something if you're so inclined
[07:41] <somsip> Neo9: what version of ubuntu are you running now?
[07:41] <Neo9> somsip: nope; i have to install on seperate system. VM suggestion won't help me any more.
[07:41] <somsip> Neo9: then install 12.04
[07:43] <Neo9> somsip: do you mean in 12.04 distro, we can have "apache 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.7" in repository.          am i right?
[07:43] <somsip> Neo9: *version* 12.04 of ubuntu has apache 2.2.22-1ubuntu1.8 available in the official repo
[07:43] <Neo9> somsip: great.

[07:49] <deekej> hello guys! I don't know if there was an update lately to the shutting down process, does anybody know? Because when I try to shutdown my Mint (it is virtualized), the shutdown/reboot commands get stucked, they start to allocate a lot of memory that I will eventually start swapping and after that the system just freezes... Does anybody have a hint/clue what might be causing this?

[07:51] <soulde> please, tell u are not a bot ;)
[07:51] <comodo_dragon> im not :D
[07:51] <somsip> soulde: please just ask your support question
[07:51] <cfhowlett> soulde, please ask your ubuntu questions
[07:52] <soulde> public channel is only to make specific questions about ubuntu?

[07:52] <soulde> ow, sorry.
[07:53] <lxgr> hello, is it possible that the grubx64.efi binary generated by grub-install contains a hardcoded path to EFI/ubuntu/, thus rendering the --bootloader-id option useless in ubuntu? i am trying to install two versions of ubuntu on the same EFI machine, and the later install always overwrites the boot entry of the earlier one, even if i manually select a different boot entry id

[07:54] <soulde> thanks, cfhowlett :)
[07:57] <sw33tlull4by> Hey I have a question or two 1: how come my dmesg-output is always empty? I have a ubuntu-server 14 running
[07:59] <nyuszika7h> sw33tlull4by: did you try "sudo dmesg"?
[08:00] <MagePsycho> any terminal customizer tool for ubuntu?
[08:00] <sw33tlull4by> yes I am root
[08:01] <sw33tlull4by> nyuszika7h, /var/log/syslog also has content, so that is one thing I am not getting
[08:02] <lng> why can't I see gnome-device-manager in Ubuntu 14.04?
[08:02] <sw33tlull4by> lng, did you install it??
[08:03] <lng> sw33tlull4by: E: Unable to locate package gnome-device-manager
[08:06] <MagePsycho> which dotfiles you recommend
[08:06] <MagePsycho> ?
[08:06] <sw33tlull4by> lng, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[08:08] <zamba> ok.. this is a paradox.. why does ubuntu insist on creating a 100MB large /boot and then filling this in just a couple of months with old and unused kernels?
[08:08] <zamba> this happens on all my boxes
[08:08] <zamba> why?
[08:08] <zamba> why no automatic routine to clean up?
[08:08] <trijntje> ubuntu doesn't make a separate boot by default
[08:08] <zamba> trijntje: it does
[08:08] <lng> sw33tlull4by: >why can't I see gnome-device-manager in Ubuntu 14.04?
[08:08] <zamba> trijntje: if you set up lvm, it does
[08:09] <nyuszika7h> zamba: why do you care? do you have an extremely small disk? it's 2015
[08:09] <cfhowlett> zamba, because autodeleting kernels is a bad idea.   sudo apt-get autoremove
[08:09] <nyuszika7h> afaik it *can* take up that much space because old kernels are kept around in case an upgrade breaks
[08:09] <sw33tlull4by> the package is only known to me from ubuntu 10
[08:09] <sw33tlull4by> lng , s.a.
[08:10] <nyuszika7h> !info gnome-device-manager
[08:11] <sw33tlull4by> I also see that /var/lib/initscripts/nologin is missing which is bad :( since a symlink /etc/nologin pointed to that...-.-' can s.o. confirm that there are similar problems with Ubuntu14-server and what to do about it, especially with dmesg would be much apreciated
[08:16] <sw33tlull4by> hmm this i consider bad-practice :( http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man5/rcS.5.html
[08:16] <sw33tlull4by> point DELAYLOGIN a symlink to a non-existing-file is by that wording deemed ok
[08:18] <sw33tlull4by> anyways gtg, see you guys later
[08:19] <sw33tlull4by> lng, use lspci, lsusb, etc to find your hardware ;)

[08:28] <zamba> how do i extract a file from a deb package?
[08:32] <froyo> hi
[08:39] <k3asd`> hi there, is it possible knows the network interfaces installed on the system? I've a server with 2 giga interfaces but the system don't recognized them
[08:39] <k3asd`> how can do a troubleshooting?
[08:41] <jasabella> k3asd`... lspci
[08:42] <k3asd`> jasabella: thank you. the command cat /proc/net/dev is the same thing?
[08:43] <jasabella> oh i thought you wanted to know the manufacturer and stuff
[08:44] <jasabella> with the manfacturer and all that you can look for firmwares i thought
[08:47] <jasabella> that just lists the network interfaces but they only show up there if they are configured ro something
[08:48] <jasabella> hi svetlana :D
[08:48] <chotaz`w> good morning everyone! I'm having this weird issue and I can't find any relevant info on the google. Everytime I install a new package I get this error: "your 131072x1 screen size is bogus. expect trouble" and I have no clue when this started happening.
[08:48] <svetlana> hi jasabella
[08:49] <jasabella> hehe 2**17 x 1
[08:49] <svetlana> chotaz`w, this over vnc or directly
[08:49] <chotaz`w> svetlana, direcly
[08:49] <chotaz`w> +t
[08:50] <chotaz`w> I've been using ubuntu for almost a decade and while I'm no expert or anything like that, I'm pretty sure I haven't seen this issue before, so my first thought was "something is utterly broken" because you know, bogus is a pretty mean word.
[08:52] <svetlana> I think you may have to disable hardware acceleration, but I'm not sure how to do that
[09:01] <k3asd`> jasabella: I treid this network cable in my laptop and works fine
[09:02] <k3asd`> jasabella: the problem are the netowrk card of this server
[09:02] <pragomer> how can I prevent any kernel update in ubuntu? the background is: I install a notebook for a friend who shall use Virtualbox. After kernel update he would have to do /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup... I dont want him to have to do this.. .so.. I just want to stay with the kernel used when installing.. how do I do this for sure ?
[09:03] <svetlana> let him update the kernel and add that setup stuff to cron for every reboot
[09:03] <svetlana> if it's not interactive, that is
[09:03] <trijntje> pragomer: I use virtualbox and updates go fine, how did you install it?
[09:05] <pragomer> ahm.. it is xubuntu.. it is possible that in xubuntu this does not work ;-)
[09:05] <pragomer> I think you are right.. in main "ubuntu" this works out of the box..
[09:05] <svetlana> xubuntu and ubuntu share same repositories, so please give more detail
[09:06] <trijntje> not really, if you install virtualbox from the software center the desktop environment should have no effect
[09:06] <svetlana> what version of xubuntu, what version of virtualbox, how did you install virtualbox
[09:06] <svetlana> yeah
[09:07] <pragomer> ahm.. yes.. I think it was today. that a kernel update came.. and I had to recompile the vbox kernel module.. you are right.. I installed the vbox version from their website.. because the version I can install via repos is the ose edition and this one does not support usb , right?
[09:08] <svetlana> trijntje: .... your hypothesis was correct
[09:09] <pragomer> its xubuntu 14.04 and Virtualbox 4.3.26
[09:09] <trijntje> pragomer: I dont know actually, I never used usb with virtualbox. Is it not included in guest additions? Otherwise just write a litte script for your friend to run if vbox stops working ;)
[09:10] <AlexEagle8128> Hola!
[09:10] <svetlana> hi
[09:10] <pragomer> yes.. a script would be ok... I also wanted my knowledge to grow.. about how to prevent kernel updates ;-)
[09:10] <svetlana> instead of disabling kernel updates, shoot yourself in the foot with an ak-47
[09:10] <svetlana> about the same
[09:11] <AlexEagle8128> Startup disk creator isn't able to finish putting the bootloader on a USB.
[09:11] <AlexEagle8128> I'm running lubuntu 15.04.
[09:11] <svetlana> does it give you an error message
[09:11] <jost> Hi! What could be the reason that apt-get puts its *.deb files into the root fs?
[09:11] <AlexEagle8128> yep
[09:11] <AlexEagle8128> @svetlana yep
[09:12] <svetlana> jost, filling the space, and problem started only recently around last week? on 15.04?
[09:12] <AlexEagle8128> Sorry, what?
[09:12] <jost> svetlana: no idea when it started, just noticed it in the IDS-reports
[09:12] <AlexEagle8128> oh
[09:13] <barq> I have startup scripts that no longer run after updating, I get permission denied. How can I increase the permissions in order for the scripts to work again?
[09:13] <jost> svetlana: what do you mean by "filling the space"?
[09:14] <AlexEagle8128> it's weird. If it help, I'm trying to load a x86 image (for another computer) on a x64 laptop. I wouldn't have thought that would affect it...
[09:15] <AlexEagle8128> *helps
[09:15] <svetlana> what is it
[09:15] <svetlana> AlexEagle8128: I mean, what error message do you get?
[09:15] <AlexEagle8128> wait a moment, I'll try it again and post back exactly what I get
[09:15] <AlexEagle8128> :-)
[09:16] <svetlana> jost: could you please pastebin what you see in IDS reports? and how did you partition the thing - I have only rootfs and nothing else, so I'm not sure what you are expecting
[09:17] <jost> svetlana: yes, will do - takes a moment though, customer has an emergency
[09:21] <AlexEagle8128> "Failed to install the bootloader".
[09:23] <PHPLearner> hello
[09:23] <AlexEagle8128> hi php
[09:23] <AlexEagle8128> :-)
[09:23] <PHPLearner> i am currently on my terminal inside my desktop folder

[09:23] <AlexEagle8128> haha
[09:24] <PHPLearner> i am wondering when I type cd /COMPLETED COURSES/
[09:24] <AlexEagle8128> lubuntu 15.04 vivid vervet
[09:24] <PHPLearner> it says no directory or folder found
[09:24] <bstarek> cd COMPLETED COURSES/
[09:24] <PHPLearner> oh ok
[09:24] <bstarek> cd "COMPLETED COURSES"
[09:24] <svetlana> ahah.
[09:24] <svetlana> bstarek: good call.
[09:24] <bstarek> because there is a space s you need ""
[09:25] <PHPLearner> bstarek: THANKS
[09:25] <PHPLearner> you are great man
[09:25] <PHPLearner> so much thanks
[09:25] <bstarek> its nothing, google could give you the answear
[09:26] <k1l_> PHPLearner: use "\" to escape the space
[09:27] <PHPLearner> k1l_: ok noted
[09:27] <PHPLearner> will do it next time
[09:27] <PHPLearner> thanks
[09:27] <k1l_> PHPLearner: and stop using spaces in folders or filenames if you want to become a good coder :)
[09:27] <AlexEagle8128> hey i'm back
[09:27] <AlexEagle8128> lubuntu crashed
[09:27] <PHPLearner> oh ok
[09:27] <PHPLearner> k1l_: ok
[09:28] <AlexEagle8128> wow this is a CRAPtop
[09:28] <bstarek> k1l_, true, avoid spaces
[09:28] <AlexEagle8128> it really is
[09:28] <PHPLearner> k1l_: so what will i do then can you give me an example
[09:28] <PHPLearner> k1l_: by the way, what languages are you using to code
[09:28] <k1l_> file_name
[09:28] <AlexEagle8128> if it can manage to crash Lubuntu it must be a CRAPtop
[09:28] <PHPLearner> ok
[09:28] <PHPLearner> sure
[09:28] <PHPLearner> next time will do
[09:28] <PHPLearner> I will take note of your advice
[09:28] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: that sounds like you want to start a blog for the ranting :)
[09:29] <AlexEagle8128> :-) hahahahahha
[09:29] <svetlana> ok 15.04
[09:29] <svetlana> wait
[09:29] <AlexEagle8128> i do have a blog actualy
[09:29] <AlexEagle8128> *actually
[09:29] <AlexEagle8128> I love to rant about my craptop
[09:29] <z4sk4> hi all, i am on kubuntu 15.04 and i have problems with backports wifi drivers... (i need stop network-manager to monitoring..)  but in my kubuntu 14.04 by default i have wifi drivers so... what is the packet that have default drivers?? if install ir will disapear the message of "[phy0]SIOCSIFFLAGS: Name not unique on network"?
[09:29] <PHPLearner> is it always advisable to keep on upgrading Ubuntu from one version to the next
[09:29] <AlexEagle8128> :-) hahaha
[09:29] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: we want to focus on actual support. for general chatter we have #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:30] <AlexEagle8128> My laptop (craptop) is 10 yrs old, near enough.
[09:30] <svetlana> AlexEagle8128: 3 suggestions. run it as root. format the usb and do it again. use unetbooting instead of startup disk creator.
[09:30] <k1l_> PHPLearner: we have LTS versions which get 5 years support (12.04, 14.04). if you ware on 14.10 or 15.04 you need to upgrade every 6 months anyway until you reach the next lts which is 16.04
[09:31] <k1l_> !rootirc | root
[09:31] <root> hi guys
[09:31] <svetlana> oo
[09:31] <Guest77231> hi guys
[09:31] <AlexEagle8128> i've tried number 2, i tried 3 before, didn't work and I'm not sure how to do the first one
[09:31] <PHPLearner> k1l_: ok I am on 14.10
[09:31] <z4sk4> hi all, i am on kubuntu 15.04 and i have problems with backports 4.1 wifi drivers, i installing but... i need stop network-manager to monitoring..  so in my kubuntu 14.04 by default i havent wifi drivers so... what is the packet name that have default WiFI drivers for ubuntu system?? if install ir will disapear the message of "[phy0]SIOCSIFFLAGS: Name not unique on network"?
[09:32] <PHPLearner> so I am curious is there a way to upgrade from 14.1 to 15.1
[09:32] <AlexEagle8128> just to clarify, root is different from administrator?
[09:32] <PHPLearner> or there is really not much of a difference between the two after all
[09:32] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: what is your issue? and dont run everything as root. that will break a lot of stuff
[09:32] <svetlana> AlexEagle8128: what administrator?
[09:32] <Guest77231> I am sure what I am doing, so guess it is OK
[09:32] <svetlana> k1l_: he gets 'failed to install the bootloader' when writing usb bootable image using startup disk creator.
[09:33] <svetlana> k1l_: 15.04
[09:33] <bstarek> there is only ONE true administrator ---> root
[09:33] <momken> Hello
[09:33] <AlexEagle8128> I mean, I take it that my user account is not root? I've dabbled with root use  before but can't remember much at all.
[09:33] <bstarek> or you can create an admin user and give it sudo rights
[09:34] <svetlana> momken hi
[09:34] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: we dont use root. we use sudo on ubuntu. but we dont run everything with sudo, bevcause that is not needed
[09:34] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: so you cant install ubuntu?
[09:34] <jasabella> is there a way to install ubuntu without a bootdisk? :)
[09:34] <jasabella> (not in windows)
[09:34] <Rand0m`> jasabella, wubi maybe?
[09:34] <bstarek> jasabella, through the network
[09:35] <bstarek> pxe
[09:35] <AlexEagle8128> I'm trying to load a x86 lubuntu 15.04 iso from a x64 laptop.
[09:35] <jasabella> yeah i thought i'd clarify that
[09:35] <pragomer> not from a jedi :-) :-)
[09:35] <k1l_> jasabella: what do you mean "without a bootdisk"? you dont have a cd/dvd or usb pendrive?
[09:35] <momken> I have nvidia gtx 750 ti, I installed nvidia-346 from xorg-edger. Now I can see screen in 1080p, but I can't hear sound using my monitor's speakers. It is connecting only using HDMI
[09:35] <momken> I use xubuntu <IP_ADDRESS> x64
[09:35] <jasabella> well i have a debian live pendrive right now, wondering if i could launch the installer and have it install to the hdd
[09:35] <AlexEagle8128> there's a bootloader error after startup disk creator tries to do it's thing
[09:35] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: you cant do that with a 32bit iso on a 64bit system install
[09:36] <z4sk4> Really nobody try to install backports wifi drivers to monitoring corrlectly on 15.04????????!!!!!!!!!!!
[09:36] <k1l_> jasabella: debootstrap is the solution. but that is an advanced topic.
[09:36] <svetlana> too vague; much of it depends on the hardware
[09:36] <jasabella> yea i was wondering if i could avoid that
[09:36] <k1l_> jasabella: for beginners its mor easy to get another usb pendrive :)
[09:37] <jasabella> partitioning isnt my forte :)
[09:37] <momken> In the sound settings, under "configuration" tab it can recognize my vga-card as HDA nvidia, but under "output devices" it doesn't bring HDA nvidia
[09:37] <AlexEagle8128> I'm just installing an iso to a usb, I wouldn't have thought the bit structure would matter. I'm not trying to install lubuntu x86 on my x64 laptop, I'm using the x64 laptop to put the x86 iso on a USB
[09:37] <manevant> @ momken
[09:37] <AlexEagle8128> the x86 iso is for another laptop
[09:37] <momken> manevant, Hello?
[09:37] <AlexEagle8128> i.e: a 32bit lptop
[09:38] <manevant> momken, oh, sorry, misstyping :)
[09:38] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: ah ok. then just use "dd" to "burn" the iso to the usb
[09:38] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, how did you burn the iso to usb?
[09:38] <AlexEagle8128> dd?
[09:38] <jasabella> yeah just dd it over :)
[09:38] <AlexEagle8128> say what?
[09:38] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, i suggest you use unetbooting
[09:38] <AlexEagle8128> i couldn't get it to work
[09:38] <AlexEagle8128> dunno why
[09:38] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, dont use dd
[09:39] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: yeah, that copies bit for bit the iso onto the usb. so there is no other program which can break things
[09:39] <jasabella> if he doesnt know what dd is, should he really be using it? Hmmm :D
[09:39] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, if you are just getting started use a GUI
[09:39] <AlexEagle8128> I wouldn't know how to use dd, i've no idea what dd is
[09:39] <hsy> hi guys
[09:39] <k1l_> bstarek: unetbooting breaks things
[09:39] <AlexEagle8128> I am using GUI
[09:39] <bstarek> k1l_, never had a prob with it.
[09:39] <hsy> what are you talking about
[09:39] <AlexEagle8128> im using startup disk creator
[09:39] <antoniopizza_> dario
[09:39] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: sudo dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdx bs=1M && sync
[09:40] <AlexEagle8128> sorry, but no.
[09:40] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: make sure of=/dev/sdx points to sdb and not sdb1 if your usb drive is sdb
[09:40] <jasabella> hehehehehe
[09:40] <AlexEagle8128> i suppose ill try it.
[09:40] <jasabella> fingers crossed he wont hose anything
[09:41] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, hit fdisk -l frist
[09:41] <AlexEagle8128> if you wreck my drive I'll come sledgehammer your pc's
[09:41] <bstarek> and make sure it is the right drive
[09:41] <AlexEagle8128> :-) lol just kidding
[09:41] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: you can see on "dmesg" what drive your usb gets linked to.
[09:42] <jasabella> cfdisk is more easy
[09:42] <k1l_> well he did try other gui programs before and that did not work. so lets see to try the dd way.
[09:43] <AlexEagle8128> sorry, guys, everybody seems to give different answers. I'm going to pick on @bstarek to explain all what I need to do. If you don't know, pass the baton to someone lese, like @k1l_
[09:43] <AlexEagle8128> *else
[09:43] <k1l_> AlexEagle8128: and i would make sure to check the md5sum of the iso.
[09:43] <AlexEagle8128> what the heck are you on about?
[09:43] <svetlana> you try to follow what k1l_ is saying
[09:44] <svetlana> since bstarek disappeared
[09:44] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, listen, just type "fdisk -l"....you will get a list of your drive...such as "/dev/sda, /dev/sdb...." make sure you pick the right one, check the size
[09:44] <AlexEagle8128> ok.
[09:44] <svetlana> oh he didnt
[09:44] <svetlana> sorry
[09:44] <bstarek> lol im here :)))
[09:44] <svetlana> this is getting really confusing now
[09:44] <AlexEagle8128> the target drive is sdb
[09:44] <AlexEagle8128> i know that already
[09:45] <pragomer> how can I change the default language that is selected in gfxboot screen of ubuntu? (default is english of course) what file to edit?
[09:45] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, ok after that, as my friend k1l_ said, you can do " sudo dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1M && sync
[09:45] <AlexEagle8128> ok one mo. will run that
[09:45] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, that will burn your ISO to your pendrive
[09:46] <MrElendig> you don't burn isos to usb sticks
[09:46] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, more exactly  "sudo dd if=/path/to/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1M && sync"
[09:46] <MrElendig> you *write*
[09:46] <bstarek> MrElendig, sorry =)
[09:47] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, then you wait until it is done.
[09:48] <a25803> begi
[09:48] <AlexEagle8128> waity waity waity woodle snoodle poodle
[09:48] <PHPLearner> k1l_: any suggestion on an good and efficient vm for linux
[09:48] <a23155> hello
[09:48] <PHPLearner> I am using for SPA project
[09:48] <a25803> Hello
[09:48] <MrElendig> PHPLearner: kvm
[09:48] <a25803> I need html help
[09:48] <a23155> can i see some boobs plz?
[09:48] <PHPLearner> MrElendig: is that good
[09:48] <a25803> does anyone know HTML?
[09:48] <MrElendig> PHPLearner: with eg qemu as the frontend
[09:49] <PHPLearner> are you using it
[09:49] <a23155> yes its verry good
[09:49] <a25803> yes
[09:49] <MrElendig> PHPLearner: also you should learn a propper language instead of php :p
[09:49] <PHPLearner> a25803: what is your question
[09:49] <PHPLearner> MrElendig: like what language
[09:49] <PHPLearner> PHP is good for web development
[09:49] <k1l_> they dont have a question. they are just trolls. dont mind them
[09:50] <PHPLearner> oh ok
[09:50] <PHPLearner> lol
[09:50] <AlexEagle8128> done
[09:50] <MrElendig> PHPLearner: python/haskell/go/
[09:50] <PHPLearner> MrElendig: how come you do not like PHP
[09:50] <AlexEagle8128> k1l_: bravo, sir!
[09:50] <MrElendig> PHPLearner: http://eev.ee/blog/2012/04/09/php-a-fractal-of-bad-design/
[09:50] <AlexEagle8128> I like your attitude
[09:50] <PHPLearner> between the three languages you gave me i'd rather choose python
[09:51] <AlexEagle8128> and you can just expect the trolls to make jokes about aTITude
[09:51] <AlexEagle8128> anyways
[09:51] <AlexEagle8128> the iso has burned now
[09:51] <neoxavier> how do you scp from a folder that has $ in its name ?
[09:51] <g0ts1ck> guys can you apt-get remove sudo ?
[09:51] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, once it is done, plus the usb drive to your computer...go to BIOS and select boot from usb...
[09:51] <k1l_> g0ts1ck: why would you want to do that?
[09:51] <jpds> g0ts1ck: Have fun with that.
[09:52] <g0ts1ck> can it be done ?
[09:52] <MrElendig> g0ts1ck: yes
[09:52] <PHPLearner> MrElendig: Man you break my heart
[09:52] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, you know how to boot from usb?
[09:52] <AlexEagle8128> kk. will see if it works now :-D
[09:52] <jpds> g0ts1ck: All of Ubuntu is engineered around sudo.
[09:52] <k1l_> g0ts1ck: could be. but that will break a lot on ubuntu
[09:52] <PHPLearner> I just completed my PHP course and I paid tons for it
[09:52] <g0ts1ck> i need to reinstall it
[09:52] <jpds> g0ts1ck: If it breaks, you can keep all the pieces.
[09:52] <k1l_> g0ts1ck: so what is the real issue? maybe there is a better solution
[09:53] <AlexEagle8128> yeah, i've burnt loads of iso's for myself and others, and this is the first time I've had any trouble with it.
[09:53] <AlexEagle8128> and yeah, changing BIOS is easy XD
[09:53] <AlexEagle8128> hahahaha
[09:53] <g0ts1ck> my friend did chmod 777 -R /
[09:53] <g0ts1ck> and he isnt owner of sudo no more
[09:53] <g0ts1ck> and cant be re owned
[09:53] <k1l_> g0ts1ck: well. i would say: reinstall
[09:53] <g0ts1ck> tough of uninstalling it
[09:53] <AlexEagle8128> see ya soon. will post back whether it works or not :-)
[09:53] <k1l_> g0ts1ck: that is not able to be repaired.
[09:53] <g0ts1ck> killerpty: yea reinstall
[09:54] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, allrighhtt
[09:54] <g0ts1ck> but tought of complete uninstall then installation again
[09:54] <k1l_> g0ts1ck: reinstall the whole OS, not only sudo
[09:54] <g0ts1ck> hmm
[09:54] <g0ts1ck> not really a solution
[09:54] <MrElendig> it can be repaired, but it will take about 50 times longer than just reinstalling
[09:54] <jpds> g0ts1ck: Only thing you can do really.
[09:54] <MrElendig> also be way more error prone
[09:54] <g0ts1ck> MrElendig: dude your everywhere :D
[09:54] <g0ts1ck> ahahah
[09:57] <PHPLearner> MrElendig: if I run npm start will it conflict with my apache webserver install on my local machine
[09:58] <MrElendig> PHPLearner: I don't do node crud
[09:58] <MrElendig> nor apache
[09:58] <MrElendig> but the typical thing to do would be to proxy from apache to node
[09:59] <PHPLearner> no just discover now
[09:59] <artisanIndia> can someone help me to add a failover ip ?
[09:59] <PHPLearner> if you run npm start it will start its own web server
[09:59] <artisanIndia> !paste
[09:59] <PHPLearner> you cannot use localhost/phpframework/etc etc
[10:00] <PHPLearner> it supplants the apache default settings
[10:01] <artisanIndia> this is my interface http://paste.ubuntu.com/10950931/
[10:01] <AlexEagle8128> it's not worked
[10:02] <AlexEagle8128> the other laptop is too old to boot from usb
[10:02] <AlexEagle8128>  and my current laptop doesn't recognise that it's plugged in
[10:02] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, what did it say?
[10:02] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, thats another prob friend
[10:02] <AlexEagle8128> there's no boot option for usb. I'll try a CD later...
[10:03] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, try different usb ports
[10:03] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, try different usb port
[10:03] <AlexEagle8128> but meanwhile, my USB is screwed
[10:03] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, you must have a very old biios
[10:03] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, why so?
[10:05] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[10:05] <AlexEagle8128> because it doesn't recognise that it's plugged in. I can't format it now.
[10:06] <z4sk4> hi all, i am on kubuntu 15.04 and i have problems with backports 4.1 wifi drivers, i installing but... i need stop network-manager to monitoring..  so in my kubuntu 14.04 by default i havent wifi drivers so... what is the packet name that have default WiFI drivers for ubuntu system?? if install ir will disapear the message of "[phy0]SIOCSIFFLAGS: Name not unique on network"?
[10:06] <bstarek> AlexEagle8128, hit fdisk -l   and check
[10:06] <AlexEagle8128> i tried to format through terminal but it couldn't even find the mount point
[10:06] <utu8o> AlexEagle8128, you can probably get plop manager or something to tell the computer to boot from USB... and you should be installing Lubuntu not Ubuntu
[10:07] <AlexEagle8128> utu: that's what I am doing
[10:07] <AlexEagle8128> lubuntu 15.04
[10:07] <bstarek> maybe its there but not mounted
[10:07] <AlexEagle8128> gtg
[10:07] <AlexEagle8128> will come back later
[10:07] <bstarek> hit fdisk -l and give me pastebin
[10:09] <cromag> hi, Ubuntu 15.04: when using the "alt tab" feature to switch between apps, they are truncated. How can i change this behavior ?

[10:29] <tomkmem> Hi, is there any way to change the system default for dns resolving so that it uses tcp instead of udp ?
[10:29] <bojan> i am getting this problem while installing libreoffice from ubuntu software centre http://paste.ubuntu.com/10951094/
[10:30] <bojan> I have purged the old and trying to install from software centre
[10:30] <_war10ck_> bojan: Which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[10:31] <AlexEagle8128> i burnt lubuntu 15.04 x86 to a usb using dd. but it didn't work, so I want to format the USB and try a different method. But my laptop doesn't recognise that it's plugged in.
[10:31] <Luyin> bojan: http://askubuntu.com/a/563319
[10:31] <bojan> _warl0ck:ubuntu 12.04
[10:31] <AlexEagle8128> i was told to run fdisk...
[10:32] <AlexEagle8128> surely at least one out of nearly 2000 people must be able to help me?!
[10:32] <_war10ck_> bojan: Try what Luyin has said, if it doesn't fix the problem, check for the library name using Synaptic
[10:32] <AlexEagle8128> anybody?
[10:32] <_war10ck_> AlexEagle8128: Did you try using Gparted -> Devices
[10:32] <bojan> Luyin:I have libre 3.5.7 version with the operating system installed..Yesterday i have updated the libre and its version is now 4.2.2..I want to revert back to my previous version
[10:33] <AlexEagle8128> nope. do you want me to post what fdisk returned?
[10:33] <bojan> Luyin:I have purged the updated version completely and trying to install from software centre...It is saying taht error
[10:33] <bojan> ??
[10:33] <_war10ck_> AlexEagle8128: Just check whether the device is listed in gParted
[10:33] <vlt> !ask | AlexEagle8128
[10:34] <AlexEagle8128> i forget, how do I run gparted?
[10:34] <_war10ck_> bojan: A library is installed which is not a broken package, same thing happened with me. Just check using Synaptic Package manager with the exact package name
[10:35] <_war10ck_> AlexEagle8128: You can get it from the dash - just type gparted
[10:35] <AlexEagle8128> i'm running lubunt
[10:35] <AlexEagle8128> +u
[10:35] <_war10ck_> It should be in system then(I am sorry, have never used lubuntu)
[10:35] <vlt> AlexEagle8128: To fiddle with partitions you need root permissions. So try `sudo gparted`.
[10:36] <Luyin> AlexEagle8128: sudo gparted from a terminal or gksudo gparted from alt+F2
[10:36] <AlexEagle8128> @vlt perfect! i thought you could do it in terminal
[10:36] <AlexEagle8128> command not found
[10:36] <_war10ck_> AlexEagle8128: Under System portion - once started it will ask for root privileges. Or try what vlt said
[10:37] <_war10ck_> AlexEagle8128: It seems gparted is not installed, get it installed using aptitude or apt-get
[10:38]  * _war10ck_ goes for lunch, will be back in a second
[10:38] <AlexEagle8128> oh yeah, forgot it had to be installed
[10:38] <bojan> _warl0ck_:Even in synaptic manager also it is saying like that
[10:41] <AlexEagle8128> ok, what am i looking for? i found that it's been re-labelled sdc1 not sdb
[10:41] <_war10ck_> AlexEagle8128:
[10:41] <_war10ck_> AlexEagle8128: Just s second
[10:41] <_war10ck_> bojan:
[10:42] <_war10ck_> bojan: Check the version of the library installed
[10:42] <bojan> _warl0ck_:can u please help me??
[10:42] <AlexEagle8128> oh wait, one says it's the iso, which is sdc1, but the 14GB volume is unallocated
[10:42] <bojan> am very new to this scenario
[10:43] <_war10ck_> bojan: Even I was a few days back, hold on, I am checking my version in Synaptic - next I can give you more information
[10:43] <bojan>  _warl0ck_:okay
[10:44] <_war10ck_> bojan: Okay, once you open up Synaptic, there is a Quick-filter search bar which is present, type libreoffice-core in there and check the version
[10:45] <bojan>  _warl0ck_::3.5.7 is there
[10:46] <_war10ck_> bojan: Yes, as a result of this, when you will try to install any other version, this version is giving the issue. I think for a complete removal
[10:46] <bojan>  _warl0ck_:i actually want this version
[10:46] <_war10ck_> bojan: You will have to uninstall these two libs before re-installing Libreoffice from the ubuntu software center
[10:47] <XATRIX> Hi guys, how can i start ubuntu upgrade from CLI ?
[10:47] <manevant> @ Zerant hello
[10:48] <_war10ck_> bojan: I think this might be the one which is giving you issues with the reversion, uninstall them and then try re-installing
[10:48] <manevant> Zerant: hello
[10:48] <_war10ck_> XATRIX: do-release-upgrade
[10:48] <_war10ck_> XATRIX: You need to be sudo to do this, check the Ubuntu guidelines before just running this command
[10:48] <bojan>  _warl0ck_:libreoffice-core:  Depends: libreoffice-common but it is not going to be installed  Depends: libexttextcat0 but it is not going to be installed  Depends: uno-libs3 but it is not going to be installed  Depends: ure but it is not going to be installed
[10:48] <nbusrone> May I know what is the different at software nvidia driver update version ? legacy vs binary ?
[10:49] <bojan> _warl0ck_:Reinstalling gives this error from synaptic manager'
[10:50] <_war10ck_> bojan: Just mark for removal from Synaptic Manager, then quit synaptic and try installing from Ubuntu Software Center
[10:50] <_war10ck_> bojan: That's how my issue got fixed actually
[10:50] <_war10ck_> bojan: Mark for removal, apply, after completion - quit synaptic and then instal
[10:50] <bojan> _warl0ck_:Yes i removed but still its there in synaptci manager but this time not showing mark for removal
[10:51] <_war10ck_> bojan: There's an apply button
[10:51] <_war10ck_> Click on that
[10:51] <bojan> _warl0ck_:Yes i did that
[10:52] <_war10ck_> bojan: Now quit Synaptic and try installing from Ubuntu Software Center
[10:52] <Thowni> can someone help? i'm using VirtualBox with Ubuntu 14.04 and it's not showing nvidia on Additional Drivers. I followed some PPA instructions and it did a bunch of stuff but it's still not showing.

[10:57] <GigaGrams> Hello, i installed the latest nvidia drivers and now i get a black screen when booting and cant get to the desktop, so I had to add nomodeset, is there a way to fix this? anything i can try?
[10:58] <utu8o> why is Ubuntu support only for 9 months? so after months you either use an unsupported version for 3 more months or install the latest version and only be supported for 6 months... should Ubuntu versions be supported for at least 1 full year?
[10:59] <nbusrone> May I know what is the different at software nvidia driver update version ? legacy vs binary ?
[10:59] <utu8o> it would probably be better for users and developers if ubuntu was supported for 1 full year and just released once a year on "Ubuntu Day" or something
[11:00] <geirha> utu8o: LTS releases are supported for 5 years
[11:00] <_war10ck_> utu8o: That's why, using LTS releases is encouraged
[11:00] <Luyin> geirha: not quite correct. only the main ubuntu releases are supported for 5 years, the others for 3.
[11:01] <utu8o> geirha, yeah, but you will be waiting 2 years for upgrades
[11:01] <geirha> ah well, still. Means you upgrade every two years instead of every 6 months
[11:06] <drwx> hi, i just updated precise and sed segfaults in libc, that's what strace shows http://sprunge.us/bWLS
[11:07] <bojan> _war10ck_:Nothing is working
[11:07] <bojan> _war10ck_:For an urgent i am installing 4.4.2 .2 for my users
[11:08] <Thowni> Sorry for my stupid question erlier, i had no idea that Vbox doesn't recognize nvidia
[11:08] <drwx> does it mean fcntl causes the segfault?
[11:08] <drwx> or does the segfault happen elsewhere?
[11:10] <jost> Hmm, for some reason apt-get wants to put its cache *.deb packages into / on my server. Why?

[11:16] <jost> This is the message I'm getting: http://pastebin.com/nej2gA51 - Why does it try to download the files to / ?
[11:16] <jost> ricky_: in my XUbuntu, I can just right click on the workspaces selector, and go into "Workspace settings".
[11:16] <jost> There's a field where I can enter the desired number of workspaces

[11:17] <ricky_> jos it's just a flag to enable more than one workspace but i've not found how to select more than 2
[11:17] <ricky_> jost,

[12:05] <ermajn> hello, I have broken aptitude, every install request ends up with "no package". I'v even tired to replace /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:05] <ermajn> apt-get update gives me a lots of 404s
[12:07] <ioria> ermajn, try this http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/
[12:07] <cfhowlett> ermajn, what does lsb_release -a        tell you
[12:07] <ermajn> cfhowlett, ubuntu 13.10 saucy
[12:08] <ermajn> ioria, I'v just on that site, but no 13.10 is listed as option
[12:08] <ioria> ermajn, ah, ok maybe you need updrade
[12:08] <cfhowlett> ermajn, and there's your problem.  13.10 is end of life for some time now.  upgrade to a supported version.
[12:08] <ioria> *upgrade
[12:09] <ioria> ermajn, we are 14 -15 now
[12:09] <ermajn> cfhowlett, yes, how to easily upgrade without aptitude that is working
[12:09] <ermajn> ioria, that's nice, but... strange is that 12, 14 and 15 is listed
[12:09] <ermajn> no 13 :D
[12:09] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | ermajn
[12:10] <cfhowlett> ermajn, lts releases are supported for 5 years.  NON lts are supported for 9 months.  choose wisely.
[12:10] <ermajn> cfhowlett, thanks..
[12:10] <cfhowlett> ermajn, happy2help!
[12:11] <ioria> ermajn, you can try with a  14.04 list...

[12:20] <GigaGrams> Hello, i removed the latest nvidia drivers and installed the kernel 4.0 and now all my windows have a huge black margin, lol :\ is there any drivers or something else i can try?
[12:21] <cfhowlett> GigaGrams, yes.  re-install the standard kernels.
[12:22] <GigaGrams> cfhowlett: first, i dont even know how to do that
[12:22] <BluesKaj> dunno what the fuss is to rush ti install kernel 4.0 , all it does is break stuff for users
[12:22] <ioria> GigaGrams, are you 14.04 ?
[12:22] <GigaGrams> ioria: nope, 15.04
[12:23] <cfhowlett> GigaGrams, I suspect sudo apt-get update && sudo a[t-get dist-upgrade will to.  also, quit mucking around with non-standard kernels.  4.0 will be brought to ubuntu when it's ready.
[12:23] <ioria> GigaGrams, so linux-image 3.19.0-15-generic
[12:23] <ioria> GigaGrams, and extra and headres maybe
[12:24] <ioria> *headers
[12:24] <GigaGrams> ioria: uname -a says its 4.0
[12:24] <_123design_> GigaGrams, you'd better reinstall the OS and start clean. Use some virtual system for experiments.
[12:24] <ioria> GigaGrams, yes, you told us that :-)
[12:24] <guchokipa> hello
[12:25] <ioria> GigaGrams, you have to up-get install the above (not garantee for success)
[12:25] <GigaGrams> yea im trying
[12:25] <ioria> GigaGrams, and then select it from grub - advanced
[12:25] <daniel31> hi all. I just installed kubuntu 15.04 into a second drive using encrypted lvm. now im booted back into my ubuntu 14.10 install but I cant mount the new drive. I get the error "The unlocked device does not have a recognisable file system on it". But I was just booted into it a few minutes ago. what gives?!
[12:26] <GigaGrams> ioria: what u mean select it from grub -advanced?
[12:27] <ioria> GigaGrams, you default kernel will remain 4.0 untill you remove it
[12:28] <ioria> GigaGrams, don't do any autoremove  untill you are certain that the system is complete funcional
[12:28] <GigaGrams> so when booting i press shift then select another kernel or something?
[12:28] <Garheade> daniel31: you can't mount an LVM volume like you can standard partitions.
[12:28] <ioria> GigaGrams, yep
[12:28] <GigaGrams> k lemme try it
[12:29] <SuperTyp> hello I need  to install a rpm package on ubuntu, I converted to dep using alien is that ok?

[12:30] <emilsp> hello, how do I get broadwayd on 14.04 ?
[12:30] <cfhowlett> emilsp, broadway?  take the uptown train ...
[12:31] <emilsp> cfhowlett, broadway, the web gtk backend
[12:31] <GigaGrams> lol the black bars are gone but now all the text is broken
[12:31] <cfhowlett> SuperTyp, "OK" yes, guaranteed to work, no.
[12:31] <GigaGrams> i can barely read
[12:31] <manuel_> 12121
[12:31] <cfhowlett> GigaGrams, pretty sure nvidia doesn't yet support kernel 4.0
[12:32] <emilsp> cfhowlett, should they ? The kernel didn't change that much to necessitate driver changes
[12:32] <PHPLearner> is Ubuntu 14.10 a Debian based ditro
[12:32] <cfhowlett> PHPLearner, ... yes
[12:33] <PHPLearner> cfhowlett: have you used NodeJS before
[12:33] <GigaGrams> http://i.imgur.com/y3wm1PB.jpg
[12:33] <SuperTyp> ok, now the package (tested on windows) provides a command for printing files through the network, after installation of the deb file, terminal can't find the command iprntcmd, is that a hint, that it doesn't work or do I have to do something else so terminal knows the command?
[12:33] <GigaGrams> pls dont laugh...
[12:34] <cfhowlett> GigaGrams, you're running an earlier ubuntu?  reinstall nivida for THAT kernel.
[12:34] <emilsp> GigaGrams, seems to be a gtk/qt/whatever framework issue
[12:34] <PHPLearner> has anyone here use Protractor before in Ubuntu 14.1
[12:34] <ioria> GigaGrams, i though worse
[12:34] <GigaGrams> u kidding

[12:36] <ioria> GigaGrams, it's readable, come on
[12:36] <GigaGrams> cfhowlett: how am i supposed to install the nvidia drivers for 15.04 and 4.0 kernel?
[12:36] <GigaGrams> no its not, i cant even read your username
[12:37] <cfhowlett> GigaGrams, again ... why do you expect nvidia to support a kernel that is STILL not in ubuntu's repos.  remove 4.0.  Use a supported kernel.
[12:37] <GigaGrams> cfhowlett: just tell me how to go back to 3.19
[12:37] <cfhowlett> emilsp, can't help.  great chinese firewall doesn't like webupd8 site

[12:39] <ioria> GigaGrams, ^*_*^
[12:39] <SuperTyp> cfhowlett: the package (tested on windows) provides a command for printing files through the network, after installation of the deb file, terminal can't find the command iprntcmd, is that a hint, that it doesn't work or do I have to do something else so terminal knows the command?
[12:39] <cfhowlett> GigaGrams, I woould never advise anyone to run an end of life distro.  too many issues
[12:40] <cfhowlett> SuperTyp, try running from the terminal.  if that fails, assume that the "alien" didn't work.
[12:41] <GigaGrams> ioria: http://i.imgur.com/lyRAtDE.jpg
[12:42] <emilsp> intotheunknown, perf
[12:42] <emilsp> intotheunknown, there's also valgrind
[12:43] <SuperTyp1> cfhwolett how to run from command?
[12:43] <someHuman> Hi!
[12:44] <cfhowlett> SuperTyp1, dpkg -l PROGRAMNAME should find it
[12:44] <ioria> GigaGrams, are you sure you removed the old kernel ? ls /boot
[12:44] <SuperTyp1> cfhowlett: It did
[12:44] <oats> SuperTyp1: look for a package called "mailutils"
[12:45] <cfhowlett> SuperTyp1, great.  run the PROGRAMNAME in terminal and note error messages
[12:45] <SuperTyp1> cfhowlett: running by simply typing the name?
[12:45] <SuperTyp1> sorry but ubuntu noob :)
[12:45] <ioria> GigaGrams, better  dpkg -l | grep linux-image-
[12:45] <emilsp> cfhowlett, maybe you can open this link ? https://launchpad.net/~malizor/+archive/ubuntu/gtk-broadway these instructions still don't work
[12:45] <cfhowlett> SuperTyp1, no apology needed.  try it.
[12:46] <jome> Hello

[12:52] <jome> hey guys I cannot either close a channel list windows poppin' now
[12:52] <XenophonF> SuperTyp1: you'll need a program called alien
[12:53] <XenophonF> SuperTyp1: it doesn't always work
[12:53] <oats> SuperTyp1: oh, I see
[12:53] <oats> SuperTyp1: repackaging software for a different distro can sometimes be a challenge
[12:54] <XenophonF> SuperTyp1: the biggest problem is that sometimes, there are library differences significant enough to cause the binary not to work
[12:54] <XenophonF> ABI vs API
[12:54] <b4tm4n> ok, another question, is it better to use init scripts or upstart?
[12:54] <XenophonF> SuperTyp1: what precisely are you trying to install?
[12:56] <PHPLearner> can anyone help how to point an app to use chromedriver.exe
[12:56] <PHPLearner> the thing is I have an app named Protractor that does testing
[12:56] <cfhowlett> PHPLearner, .exe is for windows, not linux
[12:57] <PHPLearner> cfhowlett: ok so how will I point the app to the chromiumdriver.sh
[12:57] <SuperTyp1> XenophonF: this client here: https://www.novell.com/products/openenterpriseserver/iprint.html
[12:57] <aryklein> which pre build image is the appropriate for running in a Openstack cloud? trusty-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img?
[12:57] <phpmiddleman> PLANTUML_BINARY=$(PWD)"/../buildtools/plantuml.8023.jar" this aint working because each makefile is in different folder. how can i solve this
[12:58] <cfhowlett> PHPLearner, see the README you downloaded with the app and/or check the publisher for linux support
[12:58] <SuperTyp1> I already used alien to convert it, but terminal says: can't find command...
[12:58] <aryklein> I don't understand why disk1?
[12:58] <SuperTyp1> so it seems like it didn't work :)
[12:58] <PHPLearner> cfhowlett: I got this error in my terminal http://pastebin.com/X7e3Bg9a
[12:58] <XenophonF> SuperTyp1: not to be a jerk, but did you google it? use search terms like "install novell iprint ubuntu" or "install novell iprint debian"
[12:58] <XenophonF> SuperTyp1: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=install+novell+iprint+debian
[12:59] <XenophonF> first three search hits seem relevant
[12:59] <SuperTyp1> XenophonF: I didn't really google it because my prof said it doesn't exist on ubuntu and if I could get it to work it would be great so I first tried to convert from rpm to deb, I am so sorry for this
[13:00] <XenophonF> SuperTyp1: always google it
[13:00] <SuperTyp1> yes you are right
[13:00] <hateball> SuperTyp1: if you know the queue name you should be able to just add an ipp:// printer in cups as well
[13:00] <XenophonF> yeah, doesn't CUPS support IPP?
[13:01] <hateball> You have to pick the right driver etc manually tho, all that automagic stuff that iPrint does for you
[13:01] <SuperTyp1> okay I will take a look at that too
[13:02] <SuperTyp1> thank you all!
[13:02] <XenophonF> in fact, the comments section for https://www.novell.com/communities/coolsolutions/using-iprint-with-ubuntu/ has instructions for setting up CUPS
[13:02] <XenophonF> SuperTyp1: your best bet is to use cups to connect to the iprint server
[13:03] <SuperTyp1> alright
[13:03] <knob>  I am trying to add a keyboard shortcut for the "context menu" (ie: mouse's right click).    Yet I can't find the "command" that invokes the right click.   Any idea what it is?
[13:03] <TenLeftFingers> My mother is telling me her wifi drops out a few times a week. Ive seen it happen just now  on her 12.04 machine and it rejects the correct password. Rebooting solves it for a day or so. It's a broadcom wireless on a Dell laptop. does this sound familoiar to anyone? I'm tempted to upgrade her to 14.04 if it might help.
[13:04] <PHPLearner> how to do I know whether I install a particular app ubuntu
[13:04] <PHPLearner> what commands can I type on the terminal
[13:04] <cfhowlett> PHPLearner, dpkg -l | grep PACKAGENAME
[13:04] <EriC^^> PHPLearner: or apt-cache policy <package>
[13:05] <PHPLearner> thanks guys
[13:05] <pbx> TenLeftFingers, what is rejecting password? the laptop? the router?
[13:06] <XenophonF> TenLeftFingers: you might need to update the wap firmware, too
[13:06] <TenLeftFingers> pbx: I don't know. But I do know it was identical every time
[13:06] <PHPLearner> cfhowlett: nothing came out after I type your command
[13:06] <PHPLearner> does that mean that it was installed
[13:06] <TenLeftFingers> XenophonF: I'll look into that, thanks
[13:06] <cooljet> knob : Most keyboards have a right click button on them, mine is next to the Alt Gr button
[13:06] <cfhowlett> PHPLearner, how did you install the package?
[13:07] <PHPLearner> ok wait
[13:07] <knob> cooljet, I know man... yet this laptop does not have the context-menu key.
[13:07] <knob> Soo... looking for the command.   With the command, I can do a keyboard shortcut.
[13:07] <knob> Yet I don't know the command
[13:09] <TenLeftFingers> pbx: XenophonF and anyone wanting to know, theres a process here for troubleshooting broadcom drivers : http://askubuntu.com/questions/55868/installing-broadcom-wireless-drivers
[13:09] <XenophonF> TenLeftFingers: thanks
[13:10] <PHPLearner> cfhowlett: I install it using sudo npm install -g bower
[13:10] <PHPLearner> then bower install
[13:12] <cooljet> Knob: found this online http://askubuntu.com/questions/515800/how-to-create-a-right-click-keyboard-shortcut
[13:12] <EriC^^> PHPLearner: check the docs of the package
[13:12] <EriC^^> PHPLearner: it won't show up in apt or dpkg as installed if you didn't use the package manager
[13:13] <knob> cooljet, thank you!   I saw that in my searches...   I think that is going to be the way I have to go.     Just odd that... what the heck is the context- menu command.
[13:13] <knob> I will let you know what I do!
[13:15] <cooljet> Knob: Yeah, you would think there would a straight forward command like "right-click" but I can't find
[13:16] <knob> Yup.   cooljet, the best I though... is that if we could "cat" the commands that cross the interface (xorg? I don't know).    Then you watch that screen, and do a right click.
[13:16] <PHPLearner> sorry I got
[13:16] <PHPLearner> disconnected
[13:16] <knob> I am sure there is something more basic/simple.   I will keep on searching.
[13:17] <PHPLearner> disconnected
[13:17] <PHPLearner> anyone can help me with my problem with Protractor
[13:17] <dougnet> Is there someway to convert .htm to .pdf?
[13:17] <jayjo__> I'm trying to write a shell script that delays a random interval of a few hours (anywhere between 1-180 minutes)
[13:17] <dougnet> I tried Libre, but no go there.
[13:17] <jayjo__> I have sleep $[ ( $RANDOM % 180 )  + 1 ]m
[13:18] <jayjo__> is that the correct syntax? I can't really test it for hours of waiting around
[13:18] <phpmiddleman> is there a package for plantuml
[13:20] <cooljet> dougnet: I'm guessing you mean HTML, have a look on Firefox Addons, I'm sure there a addon for that
[13:21] <dougnet> It's a .htm file. Which is HTML. A customer of mine uses a program that spits out the workorder in .htm
[13:22] <dougnet> cooljet: The browser isn't the issue though. Once I get it saved locally I would like to convert it, and get it signed electronically.
[13:24] <cooljet> dougnet: if you try opening it in Firefox, then click to print and save to file, you can save it as a pdf, it worth a try
[13:26] <jayjo__> Can someone help me with this? Do I just run sleep $[ ($RANDOM % 180)]m to run randomly in the 3 hour?
[13:27] <dougnet> cooljet: no dice on that. Gmail. Maybe on TBird, but ugh
[13:28] <trees> I have this problem: http://www.ubuntufaqs.com/questions/607127/ubuntu-winboot-wubildr-mbr-error-in-dual-boot  can anyone help? I'm not the author of the post but I have the same problem (Dual booting between windows 8.1 and Ubuntu 14.04.2"
[13:30] <PHPLearner> alright I think I got some clues
[13:30] <PHPLearner> I install something but maybe one folder did extract properly
[13:31] <PHPLearner> how can I download the files again so that I get a new copy of the zip file that come along when the app was first installed
[13:31] <White_Phoenix> hi
[13:33] <trees> can anyone help me with this problem: I'm trying t dual boot between windows 81 and ubuntu 14.04.2 but it is giving me an error message on startup "Windows failed to start..." and I installed ubuntu using wubi.exe
[13:33] <trees> 8.1*
[13:33] <k1l_> wubi :/
[13:34] <k1l_> trees: wubi is hard to support since it intsalled inside windows into a container. so in worst case you loose windows and ubuntu. better to install ubuntu into own partitions
[13:34] <jin9> hi. where can I find an android IRC client that can hide join/part/quit message?
[13:35] <k1l_> jin9: best is to ask the #android guys
[13:35] <trees> i dont have access to DVD right now :/
[13:35] <k1l_> trees: you can install ubuntu from a usb pendrive. just dont use wubi but boot that usb like you would boot a cd.
[13:36] <k1l_> trees: i recommend to boot a windows cd and repair the windows bootmanager
[13:36] <trees> yeah and I don't have a usb drive either right now, in a tight spot for now :(
[13:36] <cooljet> dougnet: from I can find HTM file should open in Firefox, then when you click to print you should see something like this https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/1/view/p3k9ymp387pexdi/Apps/Shutter/Selection_038.png sorry mate if that not any help can't think of a other way
[13:36] <trees> i can definitely get back into windows and get rid of the wubi install
[13:36] <trees> its not that which is the problem, im trying to get past the error screen that wont let me into ubuntu
[13:37] <trees> i just need to find away to dual boot
[13:37] <k1l_> trees: yes. dont use wubi.
[13:37] <k1l_> trees: install ubuntu into own partitions. that is the right solution.
[13:37] <pavlos> jayjo, try echo $((RANDOM%100+1))
[13:38] <trees> i dont have a dvd or usb drive on me right now.. i have tried unbootin as well and that didn't work either giving me a similar error message
[13:39] <k1l_> trees: well, i (and most user in here) cant help you with wubi then.
[13:39] <phiona> why is it that when im using chrome and  chromium my mouse freezes on Lubuntu 14.04? it does not freeze  with firefox.
[13:41] <dougnet> cooljet: File opens fine. I've tried manually changing file extension to .pdf but ubuntu recognises it's originally a .htm and won't open as a .pdf. When I open the file it opens a new tab. I should be able to manipulate the file from there, but that is why I think I need an installed program for that kind of file monkey'n
[13:41] <dougnet> nothing in the store that I can see either.
[13:44] <cooljet> dougnet: your best bet is a piece software call "Okular" it's a advance PDF software it might be able to handle it
[13:46] <phiona> why is it that when im using chrome and  chromium my mouse freezes on Lubuntu 14.04? it does not freeze  with firefox.
[13:50] <scarleo> Hi, after upgrading to Vivid, one of my openvpn tunnels won't connect anymore, the other two still works just fine, really strange, any ideas what could have changed?
[13:51] <scarleo> I can still connect to the problematic VPN server from other computers
[13:52] <scarleo> NetworkManager crash whenever I try to connect to that vpn
[13:54] <nofear> hey guys
[13:54] <nofear> anyone here familar with the bonding stuff in ubuntu 14.04?
[13:55] <nofear> I have a question in regards of that
[13:55] <nofear> maby some one could answer it
[13:55] <funkenstrahlen> Hey, my ubuntu says E: Package 'ffmpeg' has no installation candidate after sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
[13:55] <funkenstrahlen> I already did sudo apt-get update and upgrade
[13:55] <funkenstrahlen> any ideas?
[13:55] <nofear> I was woundering if its a possibility to bond an ethernet connection to a wireless card connection
[14:02] <dougnet> cooljet: Well, installing Okular didn't fix the issue, but it did help me figure something out. The .htm file is created locally. So, extensions, addons, programs will not support conversion.  Print, scan, get customert to sign that digitally on my smartphone. In our modern age as a technician it looks odd to hand someone a piece of paper to sign WorkOrders.
[14:05] <funkenstrahlen> oh its avconv now
[14:07] <jacksonmills> is it possible to append a file to a command line? like lets say i had a thing that was "command { file } { file 2 }" , and i had "{ file 1 } { file 2 }" in a file called files.out
[14:07] <jacksonmills> how could i do command by reading files.out?
[14:08] <cn28h> so you want to get the list of files from a file?
[14:09] <cn28h> the most obvious way to me is: xargs cmd < file
[14:09] <jacksonmills> yeah
[14:09] <jacksonmills> i want to get the list of files from a file
[14:11] <somsip> jacksonmills: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11349827/how-do-i-iterate-through-lines-in-an-external-file-with-shell

[14:12] <jacksonmills> cn28h: thank you
[14:12] <cn28h> np
[14:15] <dougnet> hmmm that reminds me of a photo filenaming issue I've been noodling for a year or so. How to sequence filenames for photos. Example: Dog at Party, 10 pictures. Is that a file editor or photo editor program?
[14:16] <somsip> dougnet: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19468016/bash-to-batch-rename-files-with-adding-numbers
[14:17] <somsip> dougnet: really depends on what they are named and what you want them to be named, but easy to adapt the above
[14:17] <chotaz`w> good afternoon folks, suddenly .deb files started opening on the terminal instead of the software center. Is this normal and if not what could have changed?
[14:19] <dougnet> somsip: I see that. It looks like they would have to have a common name first, and then sequence. Most cameras, and phone cameras generate random file names though. I could dump to a new folder, and sequence the folder though.
[14:21] <somsip> dougnet: no, it will rename any files that match any glob you like, and basename can be replace with a string
[14:21] <dougnet> cooljet: thanks for the help.  Select software centre then select to remember the paiting

[14:28] <amari> Is it needed?
[14:28] <tonyt> if your machine working now , i would say it is not needed
[14:29] <amari> tonyt: Seems to be working fine :)
[14:30] <wpd> Does anybody know how avahi-autoipd gets started on a Ubuntu system?  I would like to add the --force-bind option to it when it gets started.
[14:31] <amari> How do I check which drivers are loaded in my system?
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> amari: lsmod

[14:35] <xabbix> I'm creating a deb package and want to control what is being removed when it uninstalls. I currently have no prerm or postrm and it just deletes a bunch of files and directories that I would like to preserve, how can I change this behavior?

[14:41] <kazdax> ubuntu is great
[14:41] <Pici> the latter is more on-topic
[14:41] <kazdax> Installed it along side windows
[14:42] <kazdax> and am using it right now ..havnt had any problems so far
[14:42] <kazdax> One thing tho .. my wireless when doing speedtest is slower than on windows
[14:42] <jacksonmills> the only thing i don't like about ubuntu
[14:42] <jacksonmills> and to be fair, they are doin the best they can
[14:42] <jacksonmills> 1) 7260 wireless card support, that bastard is everywhere
[14:42] <jacksonmills> 2) gpu support can be shaky
[14:42] <jacksonmills> outside of that, i love it
[14:43] <kazdax> why need GPU ..i dont use linux for games
[14:43] <kazdax> I mean if you are going to play games..then just get a gaming machine
[14:43] <xangua> contact companies and tell them to release drivers
[14:43] <Rory> jacksonmills: What GPU problems are you having?
[14:44] <jacksonmills> im not having any now, i fixed them, i have an sli setup that i dual boot , i use it as a work computer when i wfh but use it for gaming at night
[14:44] <kazdax> xangua, will the comapinese listen
[14:44] <jacksonmills> had to get some edge update from nvidia, its fine now
[14:44] <ioria> ActionParsnip, i don't know if you remember the wifi usb dongle' guy of yesterday, but today i purchase the same (not Broad, but Realtek)and was configured and working in 10 seconds
[14:44] <jacksonmills> i usually run games in windows
[14:44] <kazdax> yea windows exist for only one thing
[14:45] <kazdax> and thats PC Games
[14:45] <jacksonmills> pretty much
[14:45] <kazdax> for everything else ubuntu can do it
[14:45] <jacksonmills> and, for the time being, unity 3d development
[14:45] <kazdax> i am using unity
[14:45] <kazdax> not 3D tho
[14:45] <chotaz`w> windows-only gaming is coming to an end tho, pc-wise.
[14:45] <jacksonmills> and using unreal engine
[14:45] <BluesKaj> I thought steam waqs supposed to cover most of the popular games
[14:45] <kazdax> why so chotaz`w ?
[14:45] <jacksonmills> yeah, dev side is still almost all pc tho
[14:45] <jacksonmills> unreal is almost released/prod ready for linux
[14:46] <chotaz`w> kazdax, lots of triple AAA+ being ported for Linux
[14:46] <jacksonmills> unity 3d will be god knows when
[14:46] <jacksonmills> i play ksp on linux, thats fun :D
[14:46] <jacksonmills> steam os is great for linux gaming for sure
[14:46] <kazdax> ksp ?

[14:46] <kazdax> never heard of it heheh
[14:46] <jacksonmills> sorry
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> ioria: usb wifi is insanely cheap. Glad you got the gold
[14:50] <ertyuio> hi there
[14:51] <ioria> ActionParsnip, you'right, don't think to use it on daily-basis
[14:54] <PHPLearner> can someone explain to me what his terminal command does
[14:54] <PHPLearner> ./node_modules/protractor/bin/webdriver-manager update
[14:55] <Rory> PHPLearner: It will execute that file
[14:55] <PHPLearner> oh ok
[14:55] <PHPLearner> thanks
[14:55] <Rory> PHPLearner: If you run "./node_modules/protractor/bin/webdriver-manager -h" does it tell you any more?
[14:55] <Rory> You should check the documentation for whatever you're running
[14:56] <PHPLearner> Rory: I got it from a forum
[14:56] <PHPLearner> it was one of the suggestions to solve a problem I am facing right now
[14:56] <PHPLearner> since I am not sure about how the command will work that is why I asked
[14:56] <PHPLearner> are you familiar with Protractor
[14:56] <Rory> I'd advise against downloading and running things from random web forums without understanding what they are. if it doesn't work and breaks your system even more, your lack of knowledge will leave you unable to fix it
[14:56] <PHPLearner> not the one used in Geometry class
[14:57] <thell> Hi all. Can the system cpu governor be restarted with a systemctl command? (Ubuntu 15.04) I've been monitoring proc/cpuinfo and notice speed gets stuck at higher speeds after resume from suspend.
[14:57] <Rory> I'm not, and I'm also not a web developer
[14:58] <PHPLearner> ok
[14:58] <PHPLearner> thanks Rory
[14:58] <PHPLearner> are you an adminstrator
[14:58] <R13ose> How do I upgrade Python interface to libapt-pkg?
[15:01] <Pici> R13ose: What are you trying to accoplish exactly? and why?
[15:02] <R13ose> Pici: in the update manager, I see the package Python interface to libapt-pkg and this is not upgrading for some reason.
[15:03] <Pici> R13ose: You mean you doing and apt-get upgrade and it is holding back packages?
[15:03] <R13ose> Pici: yes
[15:03] <Pici> R13ose: Use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[15:04] <Pici> That'll pull in the proper dependencies and get things going.
[15:04] <Pici> !dist-upgrade
[15:04] <R13ose> Pici: still not upgrading that package
[15:04] <Pici> R13ose: Can you pastebin what you are seeing?
[15:07] <R13ose> Pici: http://pastebin.com/HbTQY9gy
[15:08] <OerHeks> R13ose, did you run 'sudo apt-get update´ first?
[15:10] <R13ose> OerHeks: just did that and still holding back that package
[15:10] <MarcGuay_> Hi folks.  After I've connected and disconnected from a VPN my "Browse network" is still displaying the old information.  Any way to refresh this?

[15:18] <R13ose> ioria: I get "python-apt was already not hold."
[15:19] <ioria> R13ose, when it was hold you missed something , i think
[15:20] <OerHeks> R13ose, i found this, for 12.04 >> http://askubuntu.com/questions/178879/apt-get-broken-cannot-fix-or-remove-libapt-pkg4-12
[15:21] <ioria> R13ose, are you 14.04 ?
[15:21] <R13ose> ioria: nope, I am using another version of ubuntu and seems I would need a fresh install to install which sucks.
[15:22] <ioria> R13ose, you are Pangoline, dont' you ?
[15:22] <OerHeks> R13ose, my guess is you enabled 'proposed' updates?
[15:22] <ioria> R13ose, 12.04
[15:24] <ioria> R13ose, lsb_release   a  ,  and try OerHeks suggestion
[15:24]  * OerHeks was reading on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2045321
[15:24] <bishops> A question: My laptop (running ubuntu 14.04) is connected to a desktop screen (Dell). Every time it goes to sleep I can't start it again unless I use Caffeine to kill the screensaver. Is there a way not to need Caffeine and have the screen understand that I want awaken computer?
[15:25] <xangua> R13ose: you are using Elementary, you will need to do a fresh install
[15:26] <R13ose> xangua: why?
[15:26] <xangua> also elementary is not supported here
[15:26] <R13ose> xangua: I am in the other room.
[15:27] <OerHeks> Elementary has its own issues, i hope you can fix it with the urls i found.
[15:28] <R13ose> OerHeks: tried that still didn't work out.
[15:29] <OerHeks> R13ose, best solution: install ubuntu, forget elementary.

[15:42] <matias____> hey guys
[15:43] <pauliunas> hello
[15:43] <pauliunas> i have a problem - the settings are not saving. i have tried various settings, they just go back to previous state as soon as i click them
[15:44] <R13ose> when is 15.04 coming out?
[15:44] <pauliunas> even such things as clicking the battery icon on the top bar and selecting "show percentage"
[15:44] <pauliunas> the setting just stays off no matter how many times i click it
[15:44] <OerHeks> R13ose, it is out for some days now
[15:45] <pauliunas> i also can't pin apps to launcher - they stay unpinned even if i keep pressing the damn pin button for an hour
[15:45] <R13ose> OerHeks: thanks
[15:45] <pauliunas> umm i thought 15.04 was out a couple of weeks ago
[15:46] <user__> Pessoal, alguém sabe como criar um hostspot no backbox
[15:46] <user__> ???
[15:46] <OerHeks> !es | user__
[15:47] <captainfantastic> after installing tlp, the system seems little bit laggy. is tlp cutting resources on my hardware?
[15:47] <xangua> !pt | user__
[15:48] <pauliunas> guys, my settings are not saving
[15:48] <xangua> always fail OerHeks ;) also user__ backbox is not suppprted in any ubuntu channel
[15:49] <OerHeks> xangua, sorry for not noticing the difference between Potugese/Spanish :-9
[15:49] <pauliunas> guys
[15:49] <pauliunas> do you hear me?
[15:49] <OerHeks> pauliunas we can read you, not hear .. i don't know why you cannot pin.
[15:50] <pauliunas> ok sorry then, my nick is gray in this client so i thought i had to be logged into nickserv or something
[15:50] <SuperTyp> I could install the iPrint client now on ubuntu but I can't add a printer: http://fs1.directupload.net/images/150430/52ch58oe.png
[15:51] <ioria> !ping
[15:51] <SuperTyp> "The request contains invalid syntax"
[15:51] <pauliunas> that kind of stuff just doesn't happen in windows. i booted up, and out of a sudden all my settings are reset, including pinned apps. and they jump back immediately if i try to change them
[15:51] <Johnny_Linux> ohluh
[15:52] <cuddylier> Anyone know how to quickly wipe the metadata off a drive?
[15:52] <cuddylier> I could use shred but it takes far too long.
[15:52] <OerHeks> pauliunas, perhaps you are not logged in, but in guest-mode?
[15:52] <pauliunas> well, i did enter a password...
[15:53] <OerHeks> pauliunas, easy to see, do you see your account name top right corner?
[15:53] <pauliunas> and it shows a check mark near my username in the power menu
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> cuddylier: could use dd ...
[15:53] <pauliunas> well, as i said, it reset all the settings to default, so it doesn't show the name in that bar by default
[15:53] <cuddylier> Would it be e.g. 1/3 time of shred?
[15:53] <pauliunas> but it does show a check mark in the power menu
[15:53] <cuddylier> Since shred writes over the drive 3 times
[15:53] <cuddylier> Would dd only do it once?
[15:53] <ActionParsnip> cuddylier: do you need the drive urgently?
[15:54] <blib> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10953657/ - why isn't pip working?
[15:54] <OerHeks> pauliunas, another test, can you copy a file from one folder to an other? if not, your system is mounted readonly?
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> cuddylier: dd would do a single wipe, which is enough
[15:54] <cuddylier> ActionParsnip ASAP really, I have 3 x 4TB drives so shredding each one would take 24+ hours
[15:54] <pauliunas> hmm, which partition? /home or /?
[15:54] <OerHeks> pauliunas, in your home would do.
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> cuddylier: speed is largely dependant on the drive hardware
[15:55] <cuddylier> yeah, these are drives with 100+ MB/s I/O so standard HDDs
[15:55] <pauliunas> OerHeks, i have /home set as a separate partition
[15:55] <OerHeks> pauliunas, user settings are also stored there, so it is oke.
[15:55] <pauliunas> oerheks yeah i can copy/paste in my home partition
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> cuddylier: using 4 PCs weill speed it up, do them in parallel
[15:56] <cuddylier> ActionParsnip yeah it would, I usually do them 1 by 1 anyway
[15:56] <cuddylier> dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=512 seek=124914352
[15:56] <cuddylier> That would be a good dd command?
[15:56] <pauliunas> OerHeks, however the paste option is grayed out in the main partition
[15:56] <Pazooza> Put them in a cat scanner which is a big magnet.
[15:56] <cuddylier>  mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sdb
[15:56] <cuddylier> Or that
[15:56] <ActionParsnip> cuddylier: sounds fine, will need sudo. Check the "of" device is correct, or dd could stand for Data Destroyer ;)
[15:56] <OerHeks> pauliunas, in your main partition sounds fine, you need sudo for that.
[15:57] <pauliunas> oh, right..
[15:57] <cuddylier> ActionParsnip, yep will do, thankfully the box I'll be doing it on is unused currently so mistakes don't matter.
[15:57] <OerHeks> pauliunas, i have no clue, did you try to reboot to see if there is any change?
