[20:01] <ryand-> is that in a file somewhere?
[20:02] <ryand-> I added a dd and a mdadm --zero-superblock and it still bombed, wonder what it did
[20:02] <ryand-> heh
[20:03] <ryand-> lol ok so it says it runs the preseed command
[20:03] <ryand-> logs nothing :(
[20:09] <eshwaa> Someone helped me earlier but I'm having some annoying network problems. Fresh ubuntu install about four days ago for a storage server but I no longer have any kind of wired network connection
[20:10] <eshwaa> I've tried everything on the first page of google but nothing has helped. Is there a way to completly reset the network connections in Ubuntu to their original state, that also resets the necessary files?
[20:12] <compdoc> the main file is /etc/network/interfaces/. and then Network manager stuff. and also, in older versions of Ubuntu, the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[20:12] <compdoc> but the last file isnt used anymore
[20:13] <eshwaa> Yeah I've spent some time editing that file this morning but none of the quick fixes from google searches fixed anything
[20:14] <mikeymop> what is your issue
[20:14] <mikeymop> just not ethernet?
[20:15] <pavlos> eshwaa: static or dhcp? if dhcp, the file should contain auto lo
[20:15] <pavlos> iface lo inet loopback
[20:15] <pavlos> eshwaa: if static, there are more lines
[20:17] <mikeymop> i found it easier to do static reservations on the dhcp server
[20:17] <pavlos> your /etc/resolv.conf should have one line, nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> and maybe a search line after that
[20:17] <mikeymop> you might be inclined to do that
[20:17] <mikeymop> question, does my hostname HAVE to match the domain that 301's to my server?
[20:18] <mikeymop> my domain name goes to my site, however, the browser displays my ip. ServeName and ServerAlias are correct in apahce
[20:18] <eshwaa> yeah it's dhcp
[20:21] <eshwaa> the file contains these two lines auto lo iface lo inet loopback
[20:23] <pavlos> eshwaa: and your /etc/resolv.conf should have one line, nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> and maybe a search line after that
[20:24] <pavlos> eshwaa: sudo systemctl restart network
[20:25] <eshwaa> I tried that as well with no luck
[20:25] <pavlos> eshwaa: is this 16.04 server?
[20:26] <pavlos> eshwaa: sudo  systemctl restart NetworkManager.service
[20:26] <eshwaa> Just 16.04 desktop
[20:28] <pavlos> eshwaa: are there errors in /var/log/syslog?
[20:29] <pavlos> eshwaa: networkmanager should show getting an ip from the dhcp
[20:32] <modles> hrey
[20:32] <eshwaa> I'll have to check once I'm home on the logs, pavlos. I spent a good time with google solutions this morning and did the ones mentioned so far. Just haven't confirmed the nameserver
[20:33] <modles> any reason why lsusb would be showing a mouse ok, but no input from mouse (mouse is fine)
[20:33] <dannyLopez> Any form to search a text char inside a various text files?
[20:34] <nacc> dannyLopez: "form"?
[20:34] <pavlos> dannyLopez: you mean, grep somethin *.text files
[20:37] <dannyLopez> nacc: form, way. Jajaja, sorry my english
[20:37] <pavlos> eshwaa: since it was a fresh install, I see no reason for networking to be broken ... could it be bad rj45 cable? bad port?
[20:37] <nacc> dannyLopez: oh, then grep
[20:37] <dannyLopez> pavlos: I mean find "mynameis" in a text file
[20:38] <dannyLopez> I cant explainme. :S
[20:38] <eshwaa> I don't think so, pavlos. I tried another cable that was working with another desktop and there was still no connection.
[20:39] <KaiForce> grep "mynameis" file
[20:39] <pavlos> dannyLopez: grep mynameis /home/danny/notes/*.text (assuming your text files are in danny/notes/ dir with extension .text
[20:39] <nacc> dannyLopez: `man grep` to read about it
[20:39] <dannyLopez> I read man grep, and man find
[20:40] <KaiForce> dannyLopez: are you trying to find a file with "mynameis" in it?
[20:40] <dannyLopez> pavlos: Ill try
[20:40] <dannyLopez> No KaiForce
[20:40] <KaiForce> ok
[20:41] <KaiForce> find is not the tool you want, you want grep
[20:41] <nacc> dannyLopez: in one line, tell us clearly what you want to do
[20:41] <pavlos> dannyLopez: example "grep server /etc/*.conf" (this will look for the word server in all /etc/*.conf files
[20:42] <dannyLopez> Eg: I have 10 books, and need find a text char inside the book eg: "Dedicate to:..."
[20:42] <nacc> dannyLopez: "have 10 books" -- are those text files?
[20:43] <nadst03> Hello!
[20:43] <nacc> dannyLopez: that's not clear enough, let's say :) -- 'books' are not a unix thing
[20:43] <dannyLopez> Yes nacc
[20:43] <KaiForce> are all those files in the same place?
[20:43] <dannyLopez> Yes KaiForce
[20:43] <nacc> dannyLopez: ok so you have 10 text files and you need to fine a string inside them?
[20:43] <nadst03> does someone knows about KERRIGHED? a clustering solution for SMP type super computer?
[20:43] <dannyLopez> Yes nacc
[20:43] <nacc> dannyLopez: then yes, you can do `grep 'Dedicate to:' /path/to/files/*`
[20:44] <dannyLopez> Ill try this nacc
[20:47] <KaiForce> nadst03: the project looks dead
[20:47] <dannyLopez> grep: /home/damunoz/Libros/Jodorowsky: Es un directorio
[20:47] <dannyLopez> nacc: ^
[20:48] <KaiForce> dannyLopez: add to the end:  Jodorowsky/*
[20:48] <dannyLopez> nacc, KaiForce  grep 'Carolina' /home/damunoz/Libros/*
[20:48] <dannyLopez> Ok, KaiForce
[20:48] <nacc> dannyLopez: as I said, you either need to use '*' to have the shell expand it, and/or use 'grep -R' tomake it recurseive
[20:49] <KaiForce> grep: /home/damunoz/Libros/Jodorowsky/* <[20:57] <ubuntu-mate> hello
[20:57] <compdoc> hey, mate
[20:58] <dannyLopez> Waut, please
[21:03] <mauro_> hi
[21:08] <BetaSoul> Hey, any one got a good commandline sip or voip client?
[21:19] <nea1> anyone who can tell me how to get a ip at boot time (for dropbear cryptsetup unlock) which uses a tagged vlan as interface? I only get enp3s0.2 not found (adding VLAN=enp3s0.2:enp3s0 doesn't help)
[21:19] <freddyP> here ya go  http://sipcmd.sourceforge.net/
[21:20] <freddyP> sorry that message was for BetaSoul
[21:20] <BetaSoul> That's absolutely ancient
[21:21] <freddyP> i used to use it but my sip provider sent me a siemens gigaset phone
[21:32] <brian1> test
[21:37] <jpmh> I guess I do not understand "defined".  The statement : eval ('if (defined $x) {print "defined\n"}'); prints defined if previously I have my $x='"";, but if just my $x; it is not defined.  Does defined really mean something different to DEFINED?
[21:40] <jpmh> pld igmore last commment - it es intended for perl
[21:48] <latino31> anyone else having random freezing on 17.04...i have had 3 in like a week.
[21:52] <Philaneous> hi guys i have a VM that constantly hangs at Target Network is online
[21:52] <dannyLopez> Sorry.
[21:52] <Philaneous> ive seen some threads on this
[21:53] <latino31> constantly hangs?
[21:53] <latino31> you mean freezing or just slow?
[21:54] <Philaneous> slow
[21:54] <bray90820> Can someone help me here I have a relink RT2870 wifi card that can't connect to the internet it shows available connections and tried to connect but then fails and says disconnected
[21:54] <Philaneous> @latino31 rebooting or shutting down takes forever
[21:55] <latino31> so you mean slow..well i have had that happen in a vm machine before...not sure why it would happen but sometimes it would slow to a crawl..i dont use a vm much now
[21:56] <Philaneous> latino31: it literally takes 1 minute and sometimes its quick
[21:56] <Philaneous> @latino31: the times that it hangs, stopped at target network is online
[21:56] <latino31> well my would sometimes be fast and occasionally slow to a crawl
[21:56] <latino31> mine
[21:57] <Philaneous> i wonder if my SMB shares are causing this
[21:57] <dannyLopez> Well, resuming the question a while ago, how can I search for a string within multiple text files? Example: I want to search for "Carolina" inside a folder that is "Texts"
[21:57] <gredjok> i scanned a book I have to study and cropped and edited it. it is now 500MB big, which is 2 times the original. What program do I need to reducesize without reducing quality noticeably?
[21:58] <blackflow> Philaneous: what's the next message? That one is indicative of the problem
[21:58] <nacc> dannyLopez: you were told how?
[21:58] <nacc> dannyLopez: grep 'Carolina' Texts/*
[22:00] <dannyLopez> nacc: But show me this: grep: /home/damunoz/Books/Jodorowsky: Es un directorio
[22:01] <skinux> How easy is it to change default language when it's been changed by a desktop environment?
[22:04] <gredjok> noob question: If im hearing sound that means I have a sound card, correct?
[22:05] <Philaneous> @blackflow Stop Target Basic System
[22:05] <blkadder> gredjok It depends on the sound.
[22:05] <speeder_> Need help with a bizarre problem
[22:05] <speeder_> Installed Lubuntu on a Ubuntu normal install, using apt-get
[22:05] <gredjok> blkadder, I want to listen to a midi file, instructions https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=8736 say I need a compatible soundcard
[22:05] <nacc> dannyLopez: i feel like you're being unnecessarily difficult. YOu asked about a directory called Texts. And then the error you show doesn't mention "Texts" at all
[22:06] <speeder_> when I try to log-in, no matter what window manager I choose (even gnome, unity, whatever), it says it cannot launch plasma
[22:06] <nacc> dannyLopez: ask the actual question you want help with, please
[22:06] <Philaneous> @blackflow it doesnt crash - it just takes a takes over a minute to reboot
[22:06] <speeder_> but I thought plasma is KDE-only thing... ?
[22:08] <blackflow> Philaneous: enable persistent journal and check the logs after reboot. see /etc/systemd/journald.conf, Storage parameter
[22:09] <dannyLopez> nacc: In the folder /home/damunoz/Books are 3 folders, and 148 text files, Im sure in one of this text files are one with "Carolina" inside
[22:09] <Philaneous> @blackflow let me check that now
[22:10] <blackflow> Philaneous: and please don't use @ here, start typing the nickname and use tab to autocomplete, I don't get highlighted on @
[22:11] <juggernaut> helo
[22:11] <Philaneous> blackflow: my bad
[22:11] <nacc> dannyLopez: right, but you said "Texts". See how that's not the same question? so you would do 'grep -R Carolina /home/damunoz/Books'
[22:11] <nacc> dannyLopez: as i told you a few hours ago, you might need recursive grep
[22:15] <dannyLopez> nacc: I miss -R, Gracias

[22:29] <ChaiTRex> imbezol: Might get help by also asking in #kubuntu, though.

[22:44] <whateve> Hey guys, I'm attempting to set up a friend on Ubuntu and he's having the issue where after installing Nvidia proprietary driver using the GUI tool it boots to a black screen. Setting nomodeset didn't work and I didn't want to try and talk him through TTY, so he's currently reinstalling. Can I just get the command to install latest available Nvidia driver on 17.04?
[22:44] <Ben64> Philaneous: ask about your actual issue, it doesn't matter if anyone has it
[22:46] <Philaneous> Ben64: my vm hangs at shutdown or restart with stopped target network is online
[22:46] <Ben64> whateve: system specs?
[22:46] <whateve> Uhh it's some sort of i5 (I think Skylake) and a GTX 980 ti.
[22:48] <Ben64> whateve: reinstalling with the network attached should automatically install nvidia
[22:49] <lte> In trying to install 17.04 on a Msi arctic tomahawk b350 MB (ryzen 5) but when i start the install from the USB it sats
[22:49] <whateve> Ben64: It pulled in the open source ones for him, neoveu or whatever it's called
[22:50] <whateve> Ben64: I know it used to just be 'sudo apt install nvidia-updates' or something, but I'm not sure if that's still the case in 17.04, I've been off Ubuntu for a while now.
[22:50] <lte> Amd-vi completion loop timed out
[22:50] <Ben64> whateve: the gui is the right way to do it
[22:50] <whateve> Ben64: if he uses the GUI and reboots he gets nothing, it won't boot up. Just grub, black screen, reboot.
[22:50] <lte> I Googled and it says i News to disable IOMMU?
[22:51] <lte> But cant find that option in bios
[22:51] <Ben64> whateve: so thats when you need to figure out what's going on
[22:51] <lte> *I need
[22:52] <Philaneous> Ben64: ive looked at the logs - could this be one of my issues "failed to assign [io  size 0x1000]"
[22:52] <whateve> Ben64: well Googling "ubuntu black screen after installing Nvidia driver" gives me A TON of results, but all at least a year old and most saying you need to add a PPA which doesn't sound right
[22:53] <Ben64> whateve: or come in here with the issue...
[22:53] <whateve> Ben64: I did, "snd he's having the issue where after installing Nvidia proprietary driver using the GUI tool it boots to a black screen"

[22:55] <Dr-007> why's that? does anyone know
[22:56] <lte> Noone? I cant find IOMMU option in bios but some say change grub?
[22:57] <lte> Change grub to enable iommu
[22:57] <blackflow> Dr-007: firewall denial logs
[23:00] <Philaneous> i think the issue has to do something with esxi
[23:00] <lte> Talking to me?
[23:01] <Philaneous> lte: whoever is interested in my issue :)
[23:01] <bekks> Philaneous: ESXi doesnt flap network availability.
[23:03] <Dr-007> blackflow, i get that. but what does it? and why is it blocked? the last one is my pc, i'm sure. the mac matched in arp -e. the first one it's SRC = <IP_ADDRESS> which is wierd because my network exists on 192.168.1.*
[23:04] <Dr-007> the netmask is <IP_ADDRESS> so it cant originate from <IP_ADDRESS>, right?
[23:05] <Philaneous> bekks: there are threads on this
[23:05] <Philaneous> bekks: but my main concern is why reboots are so damn slow
[23:07] <blackflow> Dr-007: it's multicast packets, probably windows machines probing for services
[23:11] <transhuman> Bashing-om, you around?

[23:26] <hazi121> package require json
[23:26] <hazi121> package require http
[23:26] <hazi121> package require tls
[23:26] <hazi121> ?
[23:27] <hazi121> help
[23:27] <hazi121> :P
[23:28] <blackflow> hazi121: where do you get that "package require" from?
[23:28] <hazi121> blackflow its a horoscope app
[23:28] <hazi121> :)
[23:29] <blackflow> Livingroom: I had a similar problem on 16.10, the whole system become unusable when dd-ing to a USB 3.0 pendrive
[23:29] <Livingroom> blackflow: interesting thing is, using DD, it hauls ass. using CP? goes to a static point and sits forever.
[23:30] <blackflow> hazi121: doesn't sound like regular ubuntu packages
[23:31] <hazi121> tcl-tls is already the newest version (1.6.7+dfsg-1).
[23:31] <blackflow> Livingroom: also Ubuntu 16.10?
[23:31] <Livingroom> 14.04
[23:31] <blackflow> hazi121: are you sure you need tcl-tls? could be gnutls, or even some api provided by openssl
[23:32] <hazi121> yes
[23:32] <hazi121> blackflow let me paste the code ok ?
[23:32] <blackflow> hazi121: so in what context are those "package require"? python modules? ruby? something else?
[23:32] <blackflow> !pastebin | hazi121
[23:32] <hazi121> 1s
[23:33] <hazi121> http://paste.ubuntu.com/24410688/
[23:33] <hazi121> so i get this if {[string match -nocase "*404*" $getipq]} {
[23:34] <blackflow> hazi121: so those are TCL packages
[23:35] <hazi121> yes
[23:35] <tripelb> someone tell me how to get ubottu to givenme thedownload link to the new version with gnome and not unity. 64 bit intel laptop
[23:35] <hazi121> how do i fix it
[23:36] <bazhang> tripelb, that wont be until 18.04
[23:36] <blackflow> hazi121: do you have tcl installed?
[23:36] <hazi121> how do i know blackflow?
[23:37] <blackflow> hazi121: same way you knew tcl-tls is already installed
[23:37] <hazi121> well i guess its instaleed
[23:37] <bazhang> tripelb, thats precicely a year from now
[23:37] <blackflow> or use apt-cache policy tcl    or dpkg --get-selections | grep tcl
[23:37] <tripelb> bazhang, ok then I need to ask ubottu for the lts version
[23:38] <tripelb> !lts tripelb
[23:38] <nacc> tripelb: just install ubuntu gnome?
[23:38] <hazi121> blackflow   Installed: 8.6.0+9
[23:38] <bazhang> tripelb, current LTS is 16.04
[23:38] <blackflow> hazi121: and json, http aren't default part of tcl?
[23:38] <hazi121> json its installed
[23:38] <hazi121> how do i install http ?
[23:39] <tripelb> nacc ok will do. is there a cinnamon? I havent tried it. I am so"done"with kde.
[23:39] <tripelb> I would like to try something different
[23:39] <blackflow> hazi121: I don't see a tcl-http package, are you sure the module is not default installed with tcl itself?
[23:39] <nacc> tripelb: cinnamon is a package you can install, yes
[23:39] <blackflow> hazi121: I'm not that familiar with the tcl language, so can't help you more than that
[23:39] <hazi121> blackflow http://paste.ubuntu.com/24410726/
[23:40] <bazhang> hazi121, what is the name of this 'horoscope app'
[23:40] <tripelb> !ubottu
[23:40] <hazi121> horoscope.tcl
[23:40] <bazhang> tripelb, /msg the bot to investigate
[23:41] <hazi121> how i install httpd ?
[23:41] <hazi121> i think thats the prob
[23:41] <tripelb> nacc this is a question from dumbness but, say using terminal, How can I find the location of any iso packages I have downloaded and cant find.
[23:41] <Schzd> Is there a way to make a semi portable install?
[23:42] <blackflow> hazi121: which one? there's apache, nginx, lighttpd, and probably more
[23:43] <nacc> tripelb: 'iso packages'?
[23:43] <nacc> tripelb: you can use `apt search` to find packages
[23:43] <hazi121> i think Apache blackflow
[23:43] <bazhang> hazi121, thats for an eggdrop bot
[23:43] <blackflow> hazi121: but I doubt you need that. are you sure you need some special package for http?
[23:43] <tripelb> This twists my brain. I have a kde install that had wifi because I installed it connected to ethernet. I have another ubuntu install that has no wifi because I was not connected to the internet when Iinstalled it. --> Is there a way to givethis install wifi capability?
[23:44] <hazi121> yes
[23:44] <hazi121> apt-get install http* ?
[23:44] <hazi121> :)
[23:44] <tripelb> nacc,I mean .iso files on my hard drive
[23:44] <bazhang> hazi121, that 'app' is for an eggdrop bot
[23:45] <tripelb> nacc, it is find or search or grep directories with a flag to go down to directories inside of directories
[23:45] <nacc> tripelb: you want to find iso files?
[23:45] <nacc> tripelb: find /path -name '*.iso'
[23:46] <tripelb> nacc, I want tofind out where I put the file. I may have a 16,04 already downloaded. I am sitting here at Ralphs Market and it takes hours to download another.
[23:46] <blackflow> tripelb: might also wanna check your browser's download history
[23:46] <bazhang> hazi121, that app is for an eggdrop bot. ask the eggdrop channel on getting it in your bot
[23:47] <hazi121> ok
[23:47] <bazhang> #eggdrop hazi121
[23:48] <tripelb> blackflow why not! I just wish I knew how to search the entire directory listing. Wait, if I could ls recursively into a file I could do a text search in that file. If I knew how to do that.
[23:50] <blackflow> tripelb: nacc told you how to find files. Probably somewhere in your home dir, so find ~/ -name '*.iso' .   searching files for text content is something different, and done with grep (-R for recursive)
[23:51] <tripelb> ah blackflow thanks and thanks nacc I must havemissed it.
[23:52] <tripelb> blackflow, Ah I havefour of them.
[23:52] <blackflow> tripelb: in ~/Downloads  ? :)
[23:54] <tripelb> blackflow in a directory called UBU and two other directories.
[23:54] <tripelb> inside of Downloads
[23:54] <tripelb> Now I need to verify the download
[23:54] <tripelb> !verify tripelb
[23:56] <bazhang> tripelb, I aSKED you to /msg the bot

 Is it just me or did autocorrect suffer a bit though with gesture typing
 What's gesture typing?
 Swipey method?
 If so, I've been struggling between keyboards forever
 I've always hated swipe typing.

[02:27] <sak> yes, something like that. There is a PDF download for administration ubuntu for first installation. When I find it I will post the link
[02:27] <Unit193> That's a file I created (well technically a package installs /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-noguest.conf for me, but same thing only you should create that file in etc.)

[08:00] <valutcizen> Hi!
[08:02] <valutcizen> I need someone who have good knowlage with initrd init sripts in xubuntu to add feature (i can pay for support)
[08:04] <bazhang> try alis valutcizen
[08:04] <bazhang> !alis | valutcizen
[10:51] <xubuntu43i> hey everyone
[10:54] <knome> hello.
[10:54] <knome> :P
[11:24] <Fjorgynn> https://i.imgur.com/SXBFr8Z.png
[11:24] <Fjorgynn> love this
[11:35] <knome> glad to hear you enjoy xubuntu
[11:36] <Unit193> Trying to think if that's gmrun or what, kind of looked like i3 but said you were using xfwm.
[18:10] <campee> for some reason my laptop's touchpad has stopped working after upgrading to xubuntu 15.10. i checked "settings" and verified that the device is enabled. i ran "evtest" against /dev/input/eventX and when i move my finger around on the touchpad and i see a ton of output, so it's picking up the device properly. any ideas?
[18:11] <holstein> campee: i would run the live iso that i know supported the hardware, or, windows, if its installed, and promised to support the hardware.. i would want to see that its not broken, before i spend (waste) too much time trying to "fix" it..
[18:11] <campee> it worked just fine with ubuntu 14.04/14.10
[18:11] <holstein> if you feel your tests provide that, then, you can move on..
[18:12] <campee> are you suggesting that my touchpad is broken?
[18:12] <holstein> campee: sure. but, the key word there is "worked".. if you havent see it working.. and, it doenst take long to fire up a live iso
[18:12] <holstein> campee: no. im suggesting that you can test, and definitively rule that out. thats all. im not assuming its broken
[18:12] <campee> what about evtest generating output when i move my finger on the touchpad?
[18:13] <holstein> campee: as i said, if you feel that satisfies that for you, then move on.. could be something specifically broken in 15.10 right now, since, its not released yet
[18:13] <campee> 15.04. sorry, i misspoke
[18:14] <holstein> i think i would simply try my guest account, and make sure that its a system wide issue.. or, see if its isolated to the user config
[18:15] <campee> alright. let me try a guest account
[18:15] <holstein> would be relevant to see if *any* controller moved the cursor.. etc.. can an external USB mouse move the cursor.. does it happen as other users..
[18:16] <campee> well, the mouse doesn't work at the login screen, so i'm not surprised that it doesn't work in the guest account :)
[18:17] <campee> this is an IBM thinkpad. it has two mice, a touchpad and a trackpad. the trackpad works fine, but i prefer the touchpad (which used to work!)
[18:18] <holstein> well, if it were my machine, i would simply run a 15.04 live iso on it, and see that it works with 15.04.. then, i would know what all about the hardware specifically supports ubuntu 15.04
[18:18] <holstein> campee: you are referring to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection ?
[18:19] <campee> come on man, if 14.04 and 14.10 supported my touchpad, you really don't think that 15.04 would? heh
[18:19] <holstein> campee: no, i dont think that.. but, im saying, *i* would know, by just simply testing. since, its easy to do so
[18:19] <campee> yeah, that's what i was following
[18:20] <holstein> campee: but, you dont have to. im just saying, it saves me time to know for sure
[18:22] <campee> i just feel like it's 99.99% going to work off the liveCD and it's not worth my time to find a USB drive, download an ISO, put it on the USB drive, reboot, etc to eliminate an extremely small possibility. reasonable?
[18:22] <holstein> campee: its not really up to me to decide that for you.. if you think its resonable, then, it is.. im quite sure, personally, its an issue with the upgrade
[18:24] <campee> right. i'd like to move in the direction of debugging what this issue could be. i followed that guide and didn't make much progress and was hoping for some suggestions here
[18:24] <holstein> campee: sure.. *did* you plug an external USB mouse in? that guide suggested that as well..
[18:25] <holstein> i think its relevant, since, its an upgrade.. to ask if you have a custom xorg.conf in place?
[18:26] <campee> like i said, the trackpad mouse works fine. would you agree that negates the need to test a second mouse?
[18:27] <holstein> campee: it takes me *so* little time to just grab a USB mouse, i just do that... but again, if you feel that is validating the test, then, you move on..
[18:27] <holstein> whats the output of "xinput" ?
[18:27] <holstein> !paste
[18:28] <campee> http://pastebin.com/ExxhCLA9
[18:29] <holstein> campee: do you have an xorg.conf in place? or, have you configured your OS with an settings as such in the past? for the touchpad?
[18:30] <campee> here's the output of evtest, where you can see me moving my finger around on the touchpad and it generating output: http://pastebin.com/b7ZBetV0
[18:30] <campee> holstein: i'm just using whatever the defaults are. i have not modified xorg.conf (to my knowledge)
[18:30] <flips> should /etc/hostname be just hostname or fqdn?
[18:34] <campee> it's just hostname on my system, which is what the installer put in
[18:46] <campee> holstein any ideas? :)
[18:47] <holstein> campee: sure.. try upstream at #ubuntu since, that channel will be more populated, and its more about "broken plumbing" due to the upgrade, likely
[19:01] <campee> woohoo, i got it working
[19:01] <campee> i tried to reinstall xserver-xorg-input-synaptics, only to find that it wasn't installed
[19:01] <campee> so i tried installing it and got:
[19:01] <campee> The following packages have unmet dependencies: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics : Depends: xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:<IP_ADDRESS>3)
[19:02] <holstein> yeah.. that's something you'll need
[19:02] <campee> so i did apt-get install xserver-xorg-core
[19:02] <campee> and i noticed that it did the following:
[19:02] <campee> The following packages will be REMOVED: xserver-xorg-core-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-input-evdev-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-lts-vivid
[19:02] <campee> i guess the old version was conflicting somehow
[19:05] <campee> thanks for your help holstein
[19:05] <holstein> campee: cheers.. you sorted it out :)
[19:27] <[Akeno]> Just stepped back from Manjaro Linux to Xubuntu. Any specific updates to 14.04 since release 1?
[19:31] <[Akeno]> I must kinda admit, #manjaro was more active channel...
[19:32] <knome> [Akeno], what do you exactly even mean with your question?
[19:32] <knome> [Akeno], point releases newer bring in new features, but bug fixes for sure
[19:32] <knome> [Akeno], so, what kind of specific updates are you looking for?
[19:32] <[Akeno]> Ah knome yeah I didn't use Xubuntu since 14.04.1, so now I've got 14.04.3, just curious what's done.
[19:33] <knome> point releases are just maintaining
[19:33] <[Akeno]> Happy to hear about bugfixes :)
[19:33] <[Akeno]> Was kinda turned down by home folder [null encryption] bug at the time. That seems to be gone now.
[19:34] <[Akeno]> But now it's stable to me :)


[09:01] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[09:53] <marshmn> what are people's opinions of Let's Encrypt? totally fine for general purpose SSL?
[09:53] <marshmn> it looks good from what I've read on their website, but not sure if there are any downsides to be aware of?
[09:54] <marshmn> it's obviously nice that it's free - but I also really appreciate that it auto-renews the certificates rather than having to do them manually...

[13:54] <daftykins> Sega Game Gear repaired \o/
[17:14] <zmoylan-pi> i was loaned a sega game gear years ago while house sitting for a relative in a house with no tv.  was a very entertaining system
[17:15] <ScoutsAtJOTA> where are you from
[17:16] <zmoylan-pi> earth... maybe...
[17:24] <ali1234> why does the topic say VOTE!
[17:24] <ali1234> what are we voting on?
[17:25] <zmoylan-pi> that vim is the best editor :-P
[17:30]  * penguin42 agrees
[17:47] <ScoutsAtJOTA> hi
[17:48] <ScoutsAtJOTA> any usa?
[18:00] <daftykins> ScoutsAtJOTA: it's a -UK channel, if you want US folks - join #ubuntu the main support channel, or perhaps there is a local channel
[18:00] <daftykins> !channels
[18:07] <ScoutsAtJOTA> ok cool
[18:10] <daftykins> depends what kind of chat you're looking for :>
[18:26] <bcuraboy> hi fellas
[18:26] <daftykins> lo
[18:26] <bcuraboy> anybody also compilling for mobile devices?
[18:26] <daftykins> there might be a more appropriate channel depending on your query
[18:26] <bcuraboy> most likely
[18:27] <bcuraboy> altough my query is about the ninja_wrapper
[18:27] <daftykins> are you talking Ubuntu Touch?
[18:27] <bcuraboy> no,android
[18:27] <daftykins> ah, so what specifically then?
[18:27] <bcuraboy> I should go to other channel,right?
[18:27] <daftykins> well it depends how soon you want a response i suppose ;D
[18:27] <daftykins> !alis
[18:27] <bcuraboy> well, ninja wrapper gives me an error of unknow targe
[18:28] <daftykins> and where does that (i assume program) come from? ubuntu repos?
[18:28] <bcuraboy> yes
[18:28] <daftykins> probably better to hit a larger pool for the support query then, main #ubuntu channel would be a good start there - or just using alis above to find an appropriate android dev channel
[18:29] <daftykins> !find ninja
[18:29] <daftykins> !info ninja-build
[18:30] <bcuraboy> ok, i will move to android channel then
[18:50] <zmoylan-pi> '
[18:51] <daftykins> ah mr.zmoylan
[18:51] <daftykins> how goes?
[18:52] <zmoylan-pi> going ok.  nice walk from bray to home.
[18:55] <zmoylan-pi> in a few days the rain will turn the fallen leaves into a slippery mush which will make walking with a walking stick more of an adventure.
[18:56] <daftykins> ah har!
[18:56] <daftykins> yeah best get it in now :>
[18:58] <zmoylan-pi> my walking speed will drop by a few %.  it'll take longer to get anywhere...
[18:59] <zmoylan-pi> i also picked up a nice 10000mah power bank for €20.  should keep my dumbphone going for months in zombie apocalypse :-)
[19:09] <daftykins> crikey
[19:09] <daftykins> i'm shocked it even uses a useful interconnect
[19:10] <zmoylan-pi> it doubles as a battery for a mini... :-P

[16:22] <cjwatson> jpds: syncing new upstreams of haskell packages at this point in the cycle is not necessarily highly recommended ...
[16:22] <cjwatson> jpds: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/transitions/ghc.html :-(
[16:22] <cjwatson> jpds: and debian-haskell@ says it breaks rss2irc
[16:56] <xnox> maclin: how did you merge my branch? did you use $ bzr merge as listed on the merge proposal page?
[16:57] <cjwatson> jpds: I've fixed up the transition problems, I think, but that still leaves rss2irc
[16:57] <xnox> maclin: at the moment it appears that you are the committer, and am not the author of that commit.
[16:57] <cjwatson> jpds: And git-annex seems to have new building-without-GHCi problems
[17:00] <cjwatson> jpds: (latter taken to #debian-haskell)
[17:04] <maclin> xnox, i merged the modification maually
[17:04] <xnox> maclin: you missed one hunk, and the copyright/author attribution got attributed to you.
[17:05] <xnox> maclin: i will revert your commit, and merge using bzr merge, with a correct debian/changelog entry.
[17:05] <xnox> maclin: typically we use dch to prepare a single multi-maintainer changelog entry.
[17:06] <cjwatson> if you're going to merge things manually then it's worth taking time to learn about things like --author
[17:11] <maclin> xnox, thanks,  I did not get known with that. I will learn about it.
[17:23] <xnox> maclin_: no worries. all updated, and uploaded release.
[17:27] <maclin_> xnox, great,  is it able to hit the coming ISO image?
[17:30] <xnox> maclin_: not sure, i think it will still need release team review and approval.
[17:45] <maclin> xnox, I got it, thanks:)
[17:54] <slangasek> maclin, xnox: so I am quite happy to review and accept the package in the unapproved queue, but it'll be about 2 hours before I have a chance to do so; if some other release team member reviews it before me, that's fine
[18:01] <maclin> slangasek, kind, either is fine for us:)
[20:34] <slangasek> maclin: uksc accepted.  BTW, I notice the restart_uksc() function is rather strange; I would expect a restart to be done by calling os.execv(), not by spawning a new process that kills the old one
[21:47] <knome> can somebody from the release team ACK if it's ok to land 1210898?
[21:47] <jdstrand> fyi, ^ it is a security update with packaging changes to fix bug #1305317. that bug should be fixed for release since oxideqt-codecs on the image is broken (and needed by webap-container). it went through citrain, testing, etc

[21:47] <jdstrand> oh, and it fixes a few other crash bugs
[21:57]  * slangasek waits patiently for a download from the queue so he can look
[22:06] <knome> slangasek, while you wait... what about an ACK for our issue? :)
[22:07] <slangasek> knome: looking
[22:07]  * knome bows
[22:07] <knome> would suggest reading the last comment at least
[22:10] <slangasek> jdstrand: trying to unpack oxide-qt into a tempdir is making me stabby.  I don't suppose you have a debdiff somewhere I could just look at?
[22:13] <slangasek> knome: so, this is obviously a fix that has no effect on !Xubuntu; I would say it's appropriate if the Xubuntu team thinks it is
[22:13] <slangasek> knome: it also seems like something that could be fixed in a 0-day SRU; so it mostly depends on where you are with ISO testing?
[22:14] <knome> we will need a respin anyway for another bugfix
[22:14] <knome> which is why i'm up at 1am and trying to get this ready for uploading for tomorrow
[22:15] <knome> :)
[22:16] <slangasek> knome: ok, so consider this an ack for upload
[22:16] <knome> thanks
[22:17] <slangasek> jdstrand: oxide-qt-1.0.0~bzr501/chromium/src/base/process/launch_posix.cc.orig :P
[22:18] <knome> slangasek, for the record, it probably affects ubuntu studio too, but they have been happy to take all of our fixes so far and told us they pretty much want that in the future as well.
[22:18] <slangasek> ok
[22:21] <slangasek> jdstrand: sigh, unauditable json files; maybe in the future someone could insert a few newlines in these here or there, and only remove the dangerous, bandwidth-wasting whitespace at build time? :)
[22:22] <slangasek> (but maybe this is a chromium upstream problem...)
[22:23] <slangasek> chrisccoulson, jdstrand: a bug ref or two in the changelog would've been nice...
[22:43] <jdstrand> slangasek: yes, it was omitted but already building by the time I reviewed it in the ppa
[22:43] <jdstrand> which is why I mentioned the bug ref
[22:45] <jdstrand> slangasek: thanks for the review

[15:16] <bdrung> rbasak, at a quick glance the change looks sane

[06:53] <al_nz1> on ubuntu 10.10
[07:07] <al_nz1> Shadow__X ????
[07:07] <Shadow__X> sorry was looking at another computer
[07:08] <Shadow__X> so you had ubuntu installed and then installed mythbackend?
[07:09] <al_nz1> have both backend and mcc?
[07:09] <al_nz1> but I dont think db setup properly
[07:10] <Shadow__X> ok well did you use synaptic to install mythtv?
[07:11] <al_nz1> i have followed a lot of guides over the last few days
[07:11] <al_nz1> but probably with apt-get install
[07:12] <al_nz1> synaptic shows:
[07:12] <al_nz1> mythvido installed
[07:12] <al_nz1> mythweb
[07:12] <al_nz1> myth-theeme
[07:12] <al_nz1> mythgallery
[07:12] <al_nz1> libmyth-perl
[07:13] <al_nz1> mythubuntu control center
[07:13] <al_nz1> mtyh default settings
[07:13] <al_nz1> myth gdm theme

[07:13] <al_nz1> myth front end
[07:13] <al_nz1> backend
[07:13] <al_nz1> libmyth-python
[07:13] <Shadow__X> al_nz1: open up synaptic
[07:14] <Shadow__X> and search for mythtv
[07:14] <al_nz1> those are just some of the installed options from synpatic (I have got it open with search on mythtv
[07:14] <Shadow__X> ok
[07:16] <Shadow__X> al_nz1: select the mythtv package, right click and select reinstal
[07:16] <Shadow__X> when you are installing something like mythtv sometimes its easier to use synaptic as it handles deps pretty well
[07:16] <al_nz1> done - doing it now
[07:17] <al_nz1> "An Error Occuered: The following details are provided: E:/var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-server-5.1_5.1.49-1ubuntu8.1_i386deb:subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1"
[07:18] <Shadow__X> i would select mythtv and select for a complete removal then reload your sources
[07:18] <Shadow__X> then after that install it again
[07:19] <al_nz1> ok....happening now
[07:19] <al_nz1> same error during removal
[07:21] <al_nz1> going to try a restart - trying to install mysql client resulted in same error too
[07:21] <al_nz1> very odd
[07:23] <al_nz1> great
[07:23] <al_nz1> gdm wont fully start
[07:23] <al_nz1> after logging in i just get a taskbar and clock
[07:23] <al_nz1> black window

[07:27] <Shadow__X> al_nz1: well you could remove the package from your cache
[07:27] <Shadow__X> but that wont fix your gdm
[07:28] <al_nz1> reset x11.conf or something
[13:21] <MarkusBec> is there an howto to setup the backend on an server only with  comandline?
[13:56] <sabhain> MarkusBec: sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop
[13:57] <sabhain> never mind .. thought you asked "stop" the backend.
[13:57] <MarkusBec> and the first setup of the backend
[14:06] <MarkusBec> I want to run the backend on my server but it have only ssh (no grafic card)
[14:12] <rhpot1991> MarkusBec: IIRC it requires X for mythtv-setup
[14:12] <MarkusBec> grrr
[14:13] <MarkusBec> X only to setup the backend?

[15:11] <drifting-on-a-dr> Does anyone know of a script to import a previous Mytharchive in multiple files? do not fancy restoring one at a time.

[18:20] <al_nz1> okies
[18:20] <al_nz1> going through all those screens ok
[18:20] <al_nz1> should i run fill my database?
[18:20] <al_nz1> I really have nothing to put in there at the moment
[18:20] <al_nz1> if it refers to adding media
[18:27] <al_nz1> tgm4883: ok I go to exit that backend setup menu but get a error message:
[18:28] <al_nz1> " Unable to create '/var/lib/mythtvrecordings/.test' directory is not writeable? Unable to create file '/var/lib/mythtv/videos//.test' and I have the buttons "Yes please" or "No I know what I am doing"
[18:58] <al_nz1> tgm4883: you still around?
[20:54] <tgm4883> al_nz1, mythfilldatabase involves getting channel data
[20:54] <tgm4883> what are the permissions on /var/lib/mythtv/videos
[20:57] <Infection--> Hi, I'd like to know about your PC's specs because I'd like to make my own media center
[21:00] <Infection--> I already have full HD television and HDMI cable, speakers etc but not pc
[21:04] <Infection--> I need only best compatiblity, and cheap price, also I want to watch TV while I record it
[21:13] <mrand> Infection--: almost anything even half-way modern (dual core processor with SATA) would do fine.  I'm using a 3 year old 2.2 GHz core 2 duo.
[21:14] <Infection--> How about tuner cards?
[21:15] <Infection--> Which I can use to watch while recording?
[21:20] <Infection--> !help
[21:20] <Zinn> !help For a  complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi  Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number].
[21:24] <mrand> Infection--: what type of source(s) do you have?  over the air?  cable?
[21:26] <Infection--> mrand: over the air, antenna
[21:27] <mrand> Infection--: if that's it, get an HDhomerun
[21:28] <mrand> Comes in either single or dual tuner models
[21:29] <Infection--> If it is single tuner it means I can only watch the channel that is being record?
[21:29] <mrand> Infection--: yes, that is correct.
[21:29] <Infection--> So I need dual tuner
[21:30] <mrand> A triple tuner is coming out, but it'll be more expensive than two dual tuners because it is cablecard ready.
[21:32] <Infection--> Ahh, okay :P
[21:40] <Infection--> mrand: What if I buy two single tuners?
[21:46] <mrand> Infection--: you could do that too, but that is more expensive than the standard dual-tuner box.
[21:47] <dewman> quick question when doing a channel scan for a hdhomerun, is there any reason to slow down the timeout?
[21:48] <mrand> dewman: I haven't tried to do varying comparisons... just assumed that the default values would cover everything fine
[23:26] <dewman> mrand, its odd that some channels are probable while others show timedout- 2 possible channels
[23:34] <mrand> When I go to bed tonight, I might push the timeout value up and scan again to see if it finds anything else.
