[00:11] <mocxz> helloo guys
[00:11] <mocxz> im new in ubuntu
[00:12] <mocxz> can we learn together ?
[00:12] <nicomachus> welcome. this is a place to come to when you have problems, not just to learn.
[00:12] <nicomachus> although lurking and seeing how other common problems are fixed can help you learn.
[00:13] <Bashing-om> mocxz: Sure, We are all in this together, Ask your question of the moment.
[00:17] <staticage> mocxz, have you considered searching for tutorials on youtube?
[00:17] <mocxz> thanks guys
[00:17] <mocxz> you are so kind
[00:18] <mocxz> i just install ubuntu today
[00:18] <nicomachus> there are also very helpful communities on reddit, 4chan, stackexchange, and other similar forums.
[00:18] <daftykins> free course on edx.org too
[00:18] <nicomachus> ^
[00:18] <staticage> mocx, what version of ubuntu did you install?
[00:18] <mocxz> how to check ?
[00:19] <daftykins> cat /etc/issue
[00:19] <mocxz> i just remember ubuntu desktop 14
[00:19] <staticage> top right corner next to the clock
[00:19] <staticage> there is a gear icon
[00:19] <staticage> click on that and then click about computer
[00:19] <mocxz> Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
[00:20] <mocxz> omg this channel so manny kind ppl
[00:20] <mocxz> verry2 helpfull
[00:20] <nicomachus> daftykins: /g/ added a link to a nice codecademy course too for command line.
[00:20] <daftykins> slash g?
[00:20] <nicomachus> on the /flt/: https://www.codecademy.com/en/courses/learn-the-command-line
[00:20] <nicomachus> 4chan.org/g/
[00:20] <nicomachus> 4chan's tech board. one of the only one's I can stand browsing.
[00:21] <daftykins> ah not a place i'd consider going
[00:21] <nicomachus> heh. yea... they have that reputation.
[00:21] <staticage> mocxz, daftykins' suggestion would have also worked. (cat /etc/issue) you would have to do it in terminal/tty
[00:21] <mocxz> i just install xubuntu session
[00:21] <mocxz> and i want to remove it
[00:22] <mocxz> but i dont know
[00:22] <mocxz> how
[00:22] <daftykins> is it doing you any harm?
[00:28] <pentester> is there a repo to install gnome 3.18 in 15.04
[00:28] <sami23> holaaaaa
[00:29] <pauljw> pentester: that's a question for #ubuntu
[00:29] <nicomachus> well pauljw he's in luck, cuz that's where he is.
[00:29] <pentester> This is #ubuntu
[00:29] <pauljw> oops pentester : #ubuntu+1
[00:30] <pauljw> :)
[00:30] <pentester> does anyone know how to upgrade to gnome 3.18
[00:30] <ratrace> pauljw: ubuntu+1 is 15.10
[00:30] <daftykins> nah 15.04 is current, but anything you need from PPAs - PPAs aren't supported so you have to find one yourself
[00:30] <daftykins> pentester: ^
[00:30] <pauljw> sorry, my bad,
[00:31] <pentester> on gnome.org they only mention downloading a suse live image
[00:32] <daftykins> right so maybe you can't get it
[00:32] <daftykins> (direct)
[00:33] <pentester> i was hoping to test it out and see if the screen tearing is gone
[00:33] <nicomachus> doesn't look like it's available for 15.04 yet.
[00:34] <nicomachus> I found a 3.16 install guide, but they mention that 3.18 isn't even slated to show in 15.10 right away.
[00:36] <pentester> im just going to dl the suse iso
[00:40] <daftykins> pentiumone133: tearing on what? intel?
[00:42] <daftykins> oh wrong user
[00:42] <daftykins> pentiumone133: sorry
[00:43] <nicomachus> tabbin too fast
[00:46] <daftykins> ikr
[00:47] <asklepian> well, I made it
[00:48] <asklepian> I have to say that was the easiest linux install on a mac I've ever done
[00:48] <asklepian> literally, wow
[00:49] <daftykins> so my idea worked huh?
[00:49] <asklepian> flawlessly
[00:49] <daftykins> aww yeah \o/
[00:49] <asklepian> just installed dkms
[00:49] <asklepian> then the driver
[00:49] <daftykins> smug mode engaged
[00:49] <asklepian> and I was off to the races
[00:49] <SANGMP> good morning
[00:49] <asklepian> lol
[00:49] <pauljw> :)
[00:50] <asklepian> now, I just have to figure out how to get this magic mouse to pair
[00:50] <daftykins> well dist-upgrade first
[00:50] <asklepian> cuz the default instructions on wiki.ubuntu aren't working
[00:50] <asklepian> ohhh
[00:50] <daftykins> you'll be quite out of date right now for installing .1
[00:50] <asklepian> duh
[00:50] <daftykins> "sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade"
[00:51] <asklepian> do I have to worry about editing the /etc/apt/sources.list file like in debian?
[00:52] <daftykins> you don't edit that file...
[00:52] <asklepian> I mean like adding contrib or non-free repositories
[00:52] <asklepian> (don't know much about ubuntu)
[00:52] <daftykins> GUI for that these days
[00:53] <daftykins> and it'd be universe + multiverse
[00:54] <asklepian> good lord, I am out of date
[00:54] <asklepian> so many DL's
[00:54] <daftykins> yip
[00:54] <daftykins> might have to re-do your install for the 3.13.0-63 kernel after this
[00:55] <daftykins> (wifi driver)
[00:55] <asklepian> uh oh
[00:55] <asklepian> but it didn't build before
[00:55] <daftykins> that was on the 3.19
[00:56] <asklepian> I'm not familiar with what's what
[00:56] <asklepian> this is my first time using ubuntu
[00:56] <daftykins> it'll be fine then ;)
[00:57] <asklepian> so, what am I upgrading to, if not the latest?
[00:57] <daftykins> trusty = 14.04 = 3.13 kernel
[00:58] <daftykins> vivid = 15.04 = 3.19 kernel
[00:58] <asklepian> but the iso I was booting on was 14.04.3
[00:58] <daftykins> 14.04.3 came with the vivid HWE stack, i.e. the 3.19 kernel
[00:58] <asklepian> ahhhh
[00:58] <asklepian> got it
[00:58] <daftykins> !hwe
[00:58] <daftykins> that is still old :(
[01:00] <TJ-> !ltse
[01:01] <daftykins> :)
[01:02] <asklepian> ok, where do I go in this thing to change my control key to the super key?
[01:02] <Rimann> im trying to replace WINE 64 bit with WINE 32 bit can someone tell me how to easily do this in terminal?
[01:02] <TJ-> daftykins: I only found that because I decided to read ubottu's factoids list... boredom does strange things!
[01:02] <daftykins> TJ-: :D gj!
[01:03] <asklepian> and, seriously, who has a server in grenada?
[01:04] <asklepian> mind = blown
[01:04] <daftykins> spanish folks i guess
[01:04] <asklepian> lol, we don't speak spanish
[01:04] <tuxedo_> yo soy
[01:04] <tuxedo_> yp si
[01:04] <daftykins> thats where the real Grenada is
[01:04] <nicomachus> yo tambien
[01:04] <tuxedo_> yo si
[01:04] <asklepian> ohhh
[01:04] <asklepian> the REAL grenada
[01:04] <nicomachus> Rimann: why are you trying to replace with 32 bit?
[01:04] <asklepian> lol
[01:04] <asklepian> excuse me
[01:05] <Rimann> because it wont allow me to install .NET 40
[01:05] <asklepian> not gren-ah-da
[01:05] <asklepian> gren-ay-da
[01:05] <nicomachus> Rimann: try this: http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#32_bit_wineprefix
[01:05] <asklepian> the first is in spain
[01:05] <asklepian> the second is in the Caribbean
[01:06] <bazhang> !ot | asklepian
[01:06] <daftykins> meh
[01:06] <asklepian> lol
[01:07] <sexywoodenspoon> Hey all, got postfix running under Ubuntu and it's working nicely
[01:07] <sexywoodenspoon> The only issue I'm encountering is that the rules in virtual maps aren't processed in any order...
[01:08] <daftykins> #ubuntu-server
[01:08] <sexywoodenspoon> daftykins: no worries,
[01:08] <sexywoodenspoon> daftykins: thanks
[01:08] <Rimann> nicomachus i just get this output wine: chdir to /path/to/wineprefix : No such file or directory
[01:08] <TJ-> sexywoodenspoon: the rules are processed in the order they're compiled into the database
[01:09] <Rimann> j
[01:09] <sexywoodenspoon> TJ-: Yeah I thought that, reordered them and the same output occurs
[01:09] <vivid> Rimann: shouldnt it be obvious that /path/to/wineprefix isnt a real directory?
[01:09] <Rimann> duh
[01:10] <Rimann> vivid : duh, that what i get for not reading the text before copy and pasting it. Ubuntu noob here
[01:10] <nicomachus> Rimann: we were all noobs once. some of us still are (me)
[01:11] <sexywoodenspoon> TJ-: yeah tried reordering and rerunning postmap /etc/postfix/virtual - no joy
[01:11] <sexywoodenspoon> #ubuntu-server I guess?
[01:11] <TJ-> sexywoodenspoon: lets use that channel to discuss it
[01:12] <sexywoodenspoon> TJ-: Sure, cheers!
[01:15] <Rimann> nicomachus: another noob question, ive done this once or twice already but how do i find the path again?
[01:18] <asklepian> ok, where do I go to change the shortcuts?
[01:19] <Bashing-om> Rimann: Terminal command ' echo $PATH ' to see what is set .
[01:21] <pauljw> asklepian: system settings; keyboard; shortcuts
[01:28] <Taoist1351> anyone chat?

[01:37] <jr_> underd0g: I tried thar
[01:37] <jr_> that*
[01:37] <daftykins> icewalker: their docs would answer that
[01:37] <underd0g> jr_; go to the website and download a tar ball
[01:37] <jr_> underd0g: thanks. is there any particular sequence of actions I need to take in order to install it?
[01:37] <underd0g> jr_: then exttract it and run it
[01:38] <jr_> k
[01:38] <Taoist1351> anyone do python programming? and know a good program. I learned c++ now on to python
[01:38] <icewalker> but it does not seem to work 2.2 and it works in 2.4
[01:38] <underd0g> jr_: let me know if you need help
[01:38] <daftykins> Taoist1351: find a python channel
[01:38] <icewalker> it documented in http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_log_config.html  in apache 2.2
[01:39] <Taoist1351> will do!
[01:39] <OerHeks> jr_, that is part of http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/amd64/libgtk2.0-0/filelist
[01:39] <asklepian> daftykins, any other most excellent tips?
[01:39] <icewalker> maybe the doc is wrong and it only supported in 2.3 onwards
[01:39] <icewalker> any ideas?
[01:40] <daftykins> asklepian: err you really need a scenario or question beforehand
[01:40] <daftykins> icewalker: apache channel? :D
[01:40] <icewalker> i have tested the time format in 2.2 and 2.4, and it only work in 2.4 not 2.2
[01:40] <daftykins> or logs if it's tripping on that
[01:41] <asklepian> ok, so I got the mouse working easily after the updae
[01:41] <asklepian> and I didn't have to rebuild my wifi drivers
[01:41] <yigal> icewalker: my apologies I may be able to help but I just got into the channel, what issue are you facing?
[01:41] <icewalker> been waiting for feedback in that apache channel for sometime now, so though i this channel maybe some would know
[01:41] <asklepian> but how do I use natural scrolling with my mouse?
[01:41] <asklepian> I selected it, and it works with my trackpad, but not my mouse
[01:42] <daftykins> no idea with that fruity tech stuff.
[01:42] <daftykins> i'd use a real mouse and have done with it *whistle*
[01:43] <yigal> I use a Wacom pad/pen for my mouse it's nice
[01:44] <underd0g> test
[01:44] <yigal> underd0g: you in!
[01:44] <underd0g> yigal: thanks
[01:44] <yigal> underd0g: anytime :)
[01:45] <daftykins> don't use this channel for tests in future though
[01:46] <underd0g> daftykins: got it
[01:46] <icewalker> yigal: any ideas why apache 2.2  %{format}t not working? only work in 2.4 in my test case
[01:46] <yigal> icewalker: So this is in respect to logging?
[01:47] <icewalker> yes, mod_log...
[01:47] <icewalker> http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_log_config.html
[01:48] <icewalker> yigal: related  to e %{format}t section in doc
[01:49] <icewalker> yigal: try changing logformat form  "%t"  to "%{%d/%b/%Y %T}t.%{msec_frac}t %{%z}t" or "{msec}t" none work in 2.2 only work in 2.4
[01:49] <yigal> icewalker: you've read the restrictions extended strftime(3) is only available for >= 2.2.30
[01:50] <icewalker> yes, i saw that but unclear about that
[01:50] <yigal> icewalker: what version of Apache are you using?
[01:50] <icewalker> so it only work in 2.2.30 onwards
[01:50] <yigal> icewalker: yes
[01:50] <yigal> icewalker: that's strftime formatting so I suspect that's likely the issue
[01:51] <icewalker> ok, i just need to confirm that. i proper test on prior version  2.2.30
[01:52] <yigal> icewalker: as daftykins suggested the best bet is to hit up Apache directly, but use #httpd
[01:52] <yigal> icewalker: Apache does quite a lot of open source projects these days
[01:52] <qbonitoAvestruz> Hi all right with you? I have a problem with the sound via HDMI . On windows 10/7 functions normally. What can I be doing ??
[01:53] <icewalker> yigal: yep, i tested in 2.2.23 and not 2.2.30 onwards
[01:53] <daftykins> what graphics provides the HDMI port?
[01:53] <daftykins> is it a TV or a monitor?
[01:53] <yigal> icewalker: cool man, let us know how it goes
[01:53] <icewalker> that why it didn't work.
[01:53] <qbonitoAvestruz> TV Monitor
[01:53] <icewalker> thanks
[01:53] <qbonitoAvestruz> SyncMaster P2270HN bro
[01:53] <yigal> icewalker: np
[01:53] <daftykins> i'm not your brother :)
[01:53] <daftykins> so, graphics hardware?
[01:54] <qbonitoAvestruz> graphics OK
[01:54] <qbonitoAvestruz> i play ... work...
[01:54] <daftykins> no what is it? AMD? intel? nvidia?
[01:55] <qbonitoAvestruz> the sound NOT work  HDMI so you do not ubuntu . It works windows. but you do not And my brother , but AND A gentle way to treat the other . -.-
[01:55] <qbonitoAvestruz> AMD r7 260x
[01:56] <daftykins> that's some terrible English
[01:56] <urbrother> hey it's me ur brother
[01:56] <yigal> daftykins: lol
[01:56] <daftykins> qbonitoAvestruz: look into the radeon.audio kernel parameter, or install proprietary drivers
[01:57] <daftykins> http://askubuntu.com/questions/67113/no-sound-on-hdmi-with-radeon-driver
[01:57] <daftykins> ^
[01:57] <qbonitoAvestruz> how to delete/reinstall the driver?
[01:58] <daftykins> which one are you using?
[01:58] <daftykins> follow the above before you mess with drivers
[01:59] <qbonitoAvestruz> AMD fglrx
[02:00] <yigal> qbonitoAvestruz: follow http://askubuntu.com/questions/67113/no-sound-on-hdmi-with-radeon-driver as daftykins suggested sir, and let us know what you find.
[02:01] <daftykins> then... and only then... can we proceed *dons shades*
[02:01] <icewalker> yigal: where can i find the info on restrictions extended strftime(3)?  i though i came across it some where before.
[02:02] <qbonitoAvestruz> tkz... one question
[02:02] <qbonitoAvestruz> What kind of problem because IT? Incompatibility would it be?
[02:02] <yigal> icewalker: basically the man page, http://linux.die.net/man/3/strftime
[02:03] <yigal> icewalker: man 3 strftime
[02:03] <daftykins> qbonitoAvestruz: sorry you don't make any sense
[02:08] <icewalker> yigal: ok, but that doesn't have any info about apache >= 2.2.30
[02:08] <yigal> icewalker: it doesn't it just shows the specification
[02:08] <yigal> icewalker: what version of Apache are you currently running?
[02:09] <icewalker> 2.2.23 and .29  and 2.4
[02:09] <daftykins> so doesn't meet the requirements for the option you're trying to use?
[02:10] <daftykins> *blink*
[02:10] <yigal> icewalker: right so unfortunately I'm not certain the limitations on 2.23 and 2.29 but as you're awawre < 2.30 which is known to allow for full strftime formatting, which you're using
[02:10] <yigal> icewalker: it stands to reason that 2.4 works and the others don't
[02:11] <qbonitoAvestruz> hei...
[02:12] <qbonitoAvestruz> Sound STILL bad
[02:12] <daftykins> the above variable probably doesn't work with fglrx then
[02:12] <icewalker> yigal: never tried 2.3 before.  so, it strtime works with apache >=2.3 or 2.2.30 onwards?
[02:13] <yigal> icewalker: yes, that is what I suspect from the notes provided in the docs.
[02:13] <yigal> icewalker: if you have 2.4 available I would just stick with that, Apache 2.4 is far more robust than 2.2
[02:14] <icewalker> yigal: unfornate unable to upgrade some 2.2 to 2.4 yet.
[02:15] <yigal> icewalker: what version of Ubuntu are you for Apache 2.2?
[02:15] <qbonitoAvestruz> I'll have to use the update driver or Xorg?
[02:15] <yigal> s/you/& on/
[02:16] <icewalker> yigal: i see it now in the doc
[02:16] <yigal> icewalker: cool
[02:17] <daftykins> gbell: i would google "ubuntu version fglrx hdmi audio"
[02:17] <daftykins> no idea
[02:17] <daftykins> gah tricked again
[02:17] <daftykins> gbell: sorry bad highlight
[02:17] <daftykins> qbonitoAvestruz: ^
[02:17] <yigal> daftykins: don't do a yigal
[02:18] <daftykins> ?
[02:18] <icewalker> yigal: it said "The extended strftime(3) tokens are available in 2.2.30 and later." this want i saw before and could find it.
[02:18] <icewalker> thanks
[02:18] <icewalker> s/this want/this is what i/
[02:18] <icewalker> s/this want/this is what i and couldn't find it/
[02:19] <qbonitoAvestruz> qual desses devo baixar? http://support.amd.com/pt-br/download/desktop?os=Ubuntu+x86+64
[02:19] <yigal> daftykins: the last time we were on at the same time I referenced you a couple times when I was intending the person with the issue
[02:19] <yigal> icewalker: lol, cool man
[02:19] <daftykins> oh right, i've slept since then.
[02:19] <yigal> daftykins: lol
[02:20] <asklepian> so, I used the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro11-1/Saucy
[02:20] <asklepian> but when I reboot, I don't see the option to boot into Mac OS X
[02:20] <qbonitoAvestruz> What should I download ? http://support.amd.com/pt-br/download/desktop?os=Ubuntu+x86+64
[02:20] <daftykins> asklepian: hold left alt
[02:20] <daftykins> after the chime
[02:24] <yigal> qbonitoAvestruz: hi friend I'm not trying to assume much here but I suspect you should go to #ubuntu-es as they'll likely be able to provide better support
[02:25] <yigal> qbonitoAvestruz: the language barrier appears to be unfortunately quite a tall one at this point
[02:27] <Azth> New Release | avant-garde, electroacoustic, musique concrete, drone | [The Spark of Omnipotence - https://archive.org/details/the-spark-of-omnipotence ]

[02:28] <yigal> advertising in IRC that's nearly a first, why not
  it is music
[02:29] <daftykins> yeah don't do it again.
[02:30] <yigal> all powerful by the title at least
[02:31] <asklepian> ok, now I'm back on MAC OS X but I can't reboot into ubuntu
[02:32] <daftykins> like i said hold left alt after the chime
[02:32] <asklepian> only the mac partition comes up
[02:33] <asklepian> ...which works great when I want to get from ubuntu to the mac
[02:33] <daftykins> sometimes it takes a mo
[02:33] <asklepian> oh
[02:33] <asklepian> ok, brb
[02:33] <yigal> we'll be waiting?
[02:34] <daftykins> i won't (:
[02:35] <yigal> that's the spirit!
[02:41] <asklepian> ok, I waited 5 full minutes
[02:41] <asklepian> it never came up
[02:41] <daftykins> hmm
[02:41] <asklepian> I also double checked the grub files before I rebooted
[02:42] <asklepian> they're exactly as specified on the instruction
[02:42] <daftykins> well most guides refer to one of rEFInd or rEFIt to install a working bootloader, i forget which was newer or whether either is relevant for you
[02:42] <daftykins> right but you followed a guide for saucy
[02:44] <Major_Ramsey> ?
[02:44] <yigal> MR: good question
[02:45] <Major_Ramsey> I thought so
[02:45] <daftykins> lacks some key ingredients though: words
[02:45] <Major_Ramsey> True, True... But I find words overrated though  ;)
[02:45] <yigal> daftykins: gets right to the emotion
[02:46] <asklepian> refind works like a charm
[02:46] <daftykins> \o/
[02:46] <asklepian> this has been infinitely easier than my other linux attempts
[02:46] <asklepian> I'm genuinely impressed
[02:47] <yigal> asklepian: I started more than a decade ago and I agree sir, or well the last install was much easier than those days
[02:47] <yigal> asklepian: especially on a laptop
[02:48] <asklepian> now I just gotta learn ubuntu
[02:48] <asklepian> incidentally, all that privacy stuff I heard
[02:48] <asklepian> what's the deal with that?
[02:49] <Bashing-om> !fud | asklepian
[02:49] <yigal> asklepian: I'm not certain what you're referring to?
[02:50] <asklepian> not sure what to make of the fud comment
[02:50] <asklepian> I'm just asking a question
[02:50] <yigal> asklepian: I'll need more info. to answer with something reasonable :)
[02:50] <asklepian> I'm referring to all the news that came out about ubuntu and privacy issues
[02:50] <Major_Ramsey> What's in the news?
[02:51] <asklepian> this was a while ago
[02:51] <yigal> asklepian: in relation to Windows 10 I think MS has that beat by a few magnitudes
[02:51] <asklepian> when I was first researching linux and different distros
[02:51] <Bashing-om> asklepian: Sorry a bit way to much, The point is the " privacy stuff ' is much much over rated . Your privacy on 'buntu (unity) is contollable by you .
[02:52] <yigal> asklepian: likely the use of the Amazon lens in Unity
[02:52] <Major_Ramsey> Privacy issues with the company or the software?
[02:52] <asklepian> I don't remember exactly, I jsut remember it turned me off of ubuntu for several years
[02:53] <daftykins> asklepian: essentially a bunch of tinfoil hat wearers had a good cry over amazon searches, which can be turned off
[02:53] <yigal> yah 2013 Stallman went berzerker on Ubuntu
[02:53] <daftykins> nothing much else to it
[02:53] <yigal> but relative to the existing market Ubuntu is better than most imo
[02:54] <asklepian> yeah, I never tried it before but this install...
[02:54] <asklepian> on a macbook pro
[02:54] <asklepian> ...damn
[02:54] <asklepian> should've tried it sooner
[02:54] <asklepian> a LOT sooner
[02:54] <Major_Ramsey> Are you using Unity?
[02:54] <Cay> So I have apparently destroyed something in my X install, at this point it would be easier to just reinstall but I've stored a lot of stuff on the partition I'd rather not have to copy back to it
[02:55] <asklepian> whatever the default is
[02:55] <asklepian> probably, yeah
[02:55] <yigal> Cay: sounds interesting
[02:55] <Cay> is there an easy way to repair/overwrite root but leave my user alone?
[02:55] <yigal> Cay: what did you do?
[02:55] <yigal> Cay: a reinstall
[02:55] <Cay> Built wine 32bit without chroot
[02:55] <fredy> hello
[02:55] <yigal> Cay: but let's see if there's a better method
[02:55] <Cay> I have ssh access
[02:55] <daftykins> Cay: can't just reinstall ubuntu-desktop?
[02:55] <Major_Ramsey> I recommend MATE over Unity. You should check it out.
[02:56] <Guest66895> at boot time several networkmanager scripts start but they have no time limit which results in networkmanager trying to start services endlessly and consequently the boot process  does not continues. where do i set limits to networkmanager scripts?
[02:56] <Guest33831> am new to linux .. and loving it so far
[02:56] <yigal> Cay: that shouldn't mess with X, so you have no X after the build?
[02:56] <Cay> daftykins, I honestly don't know. Usually I could debug this by looking at /var/logs/Xorg.0.log
[02:56] <Cay> but there are _no_ errors there
[02:56] <daftykins> /var/log/ :>
[02:56] <vrihadartha> Hi Major_Ramsey does MATE runs smoothly on 2 GB RAM with no dedicated graphics ?
[02:56] <daftykins> vrihadartha: should do
[02:56] <Cay> yigal, starts a white blank screen and won't progress past that
[02:56] <Cay> daftykins, :P
[02:56] <daftykins> tried nomodeset?
[02:56] <yigal> Cay: creating a new user and logging in, does that work?
[02:57] <vrihadartha> Unity is too heavy on my system
[02:57] <Major_Ramsey> 2GB shouldn't be a problem, I'm running it on a Virtual Machine with 2GB.
[02:57] <daftykins> xubuntu is fine on 2GB
[02:57] <Cay> yigal, haven't tried
[02:57] <yigal> Cay: likely a good bet
[02:57] <vrihadartha> I use Lubuntu as of now
[02:57] <Major_Ramsey> Mind you, I'm not ramping up the graphics on it either.
[02:57] <vrihadartha> but gotta try MATE and Xubuntu
[02:57] <vrihadartha> thanks y'all
[02:57] <Cay> I shall give that a shot
[02:57] <yigal> Cay: cool, gl sir
[02:57] <Cay> but I think I probably nuked a 64bit lib with an i386 lib that I shouldn't have
[02:58] <Cay> oh wait
[02:58] <Cay> @yigal
[02:58] <Cay> that's not going to work
[02:58] <Cay> I never get to a login screen before it crashes
[02:58] <TJ-> Cay: check the logs in /var/log/lightdm/ also $HOME/.xsession-errors
[02:58] <Cay> it flashes (starting X) then straight to a white screen
[02:58] <vrihadartha> I am on a 64-bit CPU but I use a 32-bit Lubuntu, is that gonna cause a problem?
[02:58] <Major_Ramsey> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/08/install-mate-desktop-ubuntu-14-04-lts ------ This should help you install it and then you can switch back and forth between MATE and Unity
[02:58] <vrihadartha> Thanks Major_Ramsey
[02:59] <daftykins> or just install ubuntu MATE ed
[02:59] <yigal> Cay: as daftykins suggested I would just do a force reinstall of the ubuntu desktop meta-packages
[02:59] <Cay> yigal, would you happen to have a cli command at hand for me to do that?
[02:59] <Major_Ramsey> No problemo!
[02:59] <TJ-> the meta-packages aren't going to fix broken libraries; that'd need a reinstall of the libraries themselves
[03:00] <daftykins> we didn't know that bit at that point
[03:00] <yigal> Cay: sudo apt-get --reinstall ubuntu-dekstop
[03:00] <yigal> s/dekstop/desktop/
[03:00] <Cay> cool thanks man, also TJ- that's the log file I was looking for!
[03:00] <Major_Ramsey> Bed time for me - Good luck Vrihadartha
[03:01] <Cay> finally some errors
[03:03] <Cay> one last question before I reinstall that
[03:03] <Cay> XIO:  fatal IO error 6 (No such device or address) on X server ":0"
[03:03] <Cay> does it clear out the xorg.conf?
[03:03] <Cay> (or whatever ubu uses for that)
[03:03] <daftykins> you never have a xorg.conf typically.
[03:03] <yigal> Cay: that just means :0 the default display isn't working
[03:04] <yigal> oh wait?
[03:04] <yigal> hmm
[03:04] <yigal> Cay: yah, I suspect that's what is going on there
[03:05] <Cay> still go forward with the --reinstall
[03:05] <Cay> ?
[03:05] <yigal> Cay: yes
[03:05] <Cay> k just wanted to make sure
[03:05] <yigal> Cay: it won't touch your user's home dir, so should be good
[03:07] <Cay> yigal, please bare with me: E: Command line option --reinstall is not understood
[03:07] <Guest66895> at boot time several networkmanager scripts start but they have no time limit which results in networkmanager trying to start services endlessly and consequently the boot process  does not continue. where do i set limits to networkmanager scripts?
[03:07] <Guest66895> number of tries or time-outs
[03:07] <Cay> dropped the dashes and no dice
[03:08] <yigal> Cay: can you please pastebin the whole thing?
[03:08] <yigal> Cay: http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[03:08] <Cay> yigal, xsession-errors or the command?
[03:09] <Cay> it looks like it needs to be apt-get install --reinstall
[03:09] <yigal> Cay: yes, sorry if that's not what I wrote
[03:09] <Cay> no worries
[03:09] <Cay> it's running now
[03:09] <yigal> Cay: good
[03:10] <Cay> (sometimes it's easier to ask for the fish when it's not on the first google page)
[03:10] <yigal> Cay: what version of Ubuntu are you running?
[03:10] <Cay> 15.04 (kubuntu also)
[03:11] <Techspectre> Is Wine capable of direct access to USB devices? For instance, can I install a gaming mouse config program in Wine and have it work?
[03:11] <Cay> (and yeah I had enough foresight to reinstall kubuntu-desktop not ubuntu-desktop)
[03:11] <asklepian> is there a solid ubuntu textbook out there
[03:11] <Cay> Techspectre, yes it is!
[03:11] <asklepian> that would have everything from easy beginner stuff to advanced?
[03:11] <Techspectre> Cay, thanks, I'll give it a shot
[03:12] <yigal> Cay: the placement of the '--reinstall' command before the install works on my 15.04 box, so?
[03:13] <yigal> Cay: what ever works
[03:14] <Cay> the command you sent before didn't have install in it just --reinstall
[03:14] <Cay> that's why I was confused
[03:14] <yigal> Cay: yah that's confusing :D
[03:15] <Cay> oh
[03:15] <Cay> looks like it's done
[03:15] <Bashing-om> !manual | asklepian
[03:15] <yigal> Cay: sorry it's wine and ice cream on Fridays
[03:16] <yigal> Cay: any better, or the same bad, any logs?
[03:16] <Cay> :D hey, have some extra for me that looks like it did the trick
[03:16] <yigal> Cay: awesome man, I hope so
[03:18] <Cay> Future note to anyone supporting 32bit software bugs, remember to chroot :(
[03:18] <yigal> Cay: what hardware are you doing this on?
[03:18] <Cay> AMD/Radeon
[03:19] <yigal> Cay: 64bit, just 32 bit wine as usual?
[03:19] <Cay> 64bit, most peoples systems are 64bit this day so I'm trying to get it closer to a multilib build at this very moment
[03:20] <Cay> (it mostly is, but there is some network interfaces that aren't playing nice and the build itself is completely not. but look at libgnutls-26)
[03:21] <Techspectre> Cay, the config program did install flawlessly, but it says the mouse is not connected. Is there anything I should do to give access to the mouse?
[03:21] <n_blownapart> hello I cannot get my background color to change. I select black in background, and it remains purple for all eternity. I have a photo centered that I want to keep. what the hell is the problem? thanks
[03:21] <Cay> which is where all this stemmed from, sony use an archaic tls call to contact out to it's server. Well ubu doesn't really support 26 anymore but wine is statically linked to it... anyways just been a stressful day
[03:22] <Cay> Techspectre, you're on ubu right? It should see it by itself
[03:22] <Techspectre> Cay, yes I'm on 15.04. It doesn't see it, though.
[03:22] <yigal> Cay: interesting, sorry it caused a stressful day
[03:23] <n_blownapart> anyone know why the background color refuses to change? I rebooted to no avail.
[03:25] <n_blownapart> the color I want is selected within the "Lock Screen," next to the Background Screen.
[03:25] <Cay> Techspectre, I am thinking about usb harddrives, but either way the usb support is routed through the system usb controller
[03:25] <Cay> so if ubu can't read the hardware than wine won't be able to
[03:25] <Techspectre> Cay, well the mouse does work in Ubuntu. I'm using it as we speak.
[03:25] <Cay> but if you want to build a config script that connects to the mouse wine should have keypress inputs
[03:25] <Techspectre> It's just, the software in Wine doesn't pull it up for configuration.
[03:26] <Cay> likely it won't find it if it's not finding it now :(
[03:26] <Techspectre> Awh, that's a shame. Looked like it would work, too. Software installed perfectly.
[03:26] <Techspectre> Oh well.
[03:41] <cr45h> anyone ever setup an ip cam running linux?
[03:41] <asklepian> why does steam appear in the software centerbut I don't have the optino to install it?
[03:45] <coderac> hello
[03:46] <Bashing-om> asklepian: Partener repo enabled in software Center ?
[03:47] <Rimann> how do i find the path to wineprefix?
[03:49] <wiltors42> Hi I have just set up two monitors on one graphics card one dvi and one vga but my VGA monitor is having problems with its horizontal alignment. The right half of the screen is blank and the left half is cut off
[03:49] <wiltors42> I try to adjust the horizontal monitor settings but it doesn't reach the edge
[03:50] <elosz> when i do cp source.txt /tmp/asds/ , when /tmp/asds/ doesn't exist, how does cp give error message like cannot create regular file '/tmp/asds/ :not a directory
[03:50] <TJ-> wiltors42: that sounds as if the VGA device isn't providing the correct mode info to the PC, via EDID. Check in "/var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[03:55] <tylerco> 1748 people and no one is talking?
[03:55] <asklepian> why does steam appear in the software centerbut I don't have the optino to install it?
[03:55] <daftykins> sudo apt-get install steam
[03:55] <daftykins> done
[03:56] <daftykins> tylerco: because it's a support channel, not a chat one.
[03:56] <daftykins> the topic is the clue
[03:56] <wiltors42> TJ: what setting am I looking for and how do I change it
[03:56] <asklepian> also, what daftykins just said is another clue
[03:58] <wiltors42> Earlier I was trying to use two separate video cards but I couldn't get them both to display simultaneously. One is NVIDIA and the other is AMD
[03:58] <daftykins> oof, the two sworn enemies
[03:58] <daftykins> that is not a setup i would put effort into :)
[03:58] <tylerco> I guess I just expected more people talking regardless. I mean 1746 is bigger then some towns. My bad
[03:59] <daftykins> well either ask a support question or move it on to #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[03:59] <wiltors42> Well now im trying to use them both in one card
[03:59] <daftykins> one card? that's not possible
[03:59] <ObrienDave> brave man ;P
[03:59] <asklepian> did you glue them together?
[04:00] <b0t> Resetting Today's Top10 statistics - It's Midnight here...

[04:00] <b0t> ubottu: Luv yA
[04:00] <wiltors42> They're both plugged into one card and it works but the VGA monitor is misaligned
[04:00] <daftykins> what are 'both' plugged into one card?
[04:01] <daftykins> monitors?
[04:01] <phunyguy> yes hello
[04:01] <daftykins> really your being vague doesn't help anyone
[04:01] <wiltors42> Yeah
[04:01] <asklepian> wiltors42, whatever it is you're doing, take pictures... I want to see this
[04:01] <daftykins> phunyguy: b0t is a bot
[04:01] <b0t> daftykins: Aha!

[04:02] <wiltors42> http://m.imgur.com/vEw3y6p
[04:02] <samthewildone> I added the command I wanted from the "startup applications", rebooted and nothing happened.
[04:03] <wiltors42> http://imgur.com/vEw3y6p
[04:03] <daftykins> hmm bit of alignment there
[04:03] <wiltors42> I try changing the alignment on the monitor settings but it doesn't reach the edge
[04:03] <daftykins> if that's VGA, hit the sync button
[04:03] <daftykins> or 'auto'
[04:03] <daftykins> ah
[04:03] <wiltors42> This is what the auto settings are
[04:03] <daftykins> so did you share the Xorg.0.log yet?
[04:04] <daftykins> to be quite honest VGA in 2015 is not cool
[04:04] <asklepian> so, I did install steam
[04:04] <asklepian> but I don't se it anywheres
[04:05] <daftykins> click the dash top left then type steam
[04:05] <wiltors42> pastebin.com/RmZkU1uF
[04:05] <asklepian> daftykins, did that
[04:05] <daftykins> it may take a while on first run
[04:06] <asklepian> it's uhhh
[04:06] <asklepian> not coming up
[04:06] <daftykins> look for a process
[04:06] <daftykins> ps -ef | grep steam
[04:07] <asklepian> daftykins, it's there
[04:07] <daftykins> mem or CPU usage changing?
[04:07] <asklepian> also, is there a good paste ubuntu command line tool?
[04:08] <daftykins> pastebinit
[04:08] <asklepian> not changing, no
[04:08] <daftykins> kill it and run it from a terminal, should give output
[04:10] <asklepian> sudo killall steam returns 'no process found'
[04:11] <MannyLNJ> Good morning
[04:11] <daftykins> i can't see from here
[04:11] <daftykins> gm
[04:11] <asklepian> imma reboot
[04:11] <asklepian> brb
[04:11] <daftykins> quitter :(
[04:13] <wiltors42> So if anyone knows what's wrong with my xorg let me know
[04:13] <daftykins> wiltors42: you didn't share the log!
[04:13] <daftykins> and avoid VGA, we're in 2015 :)

[04:17] <DDR> Hi all. I have a program which is crashing when it loads a file, but I don't know what file. Is there any way to print out a list of files which a program *had* open?
[04:19] <abb0> so is there a way to open select file types in ubuntu and set it so the application your choosing to open with is the new default app for that file type. ive never realized it till now and i know about the videos/pictures/music/documents default application settings but that doesnt take care of individual file types.
[04:24] <wiltors42> Not sure what's wrong. Did that link send thru ok?

[04:43] <vickycq> Is there a 'snapshot' repo for ubuntu which represents a mirror state in the past, say at day X hour Y, like snapshot.debian.org?
[04:46] <ObrienDave> yes, i can't think of the name. sec...
[04:47] <ObrienDave> 'back in time' comes to mind. still checking
[04:48] <vickycq> For example, in debian I can specify deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20150905T033133Z/ testing main, which repesent the exact mirror state for testing at 2015-09-05, 03:31:33 UTC
[04:48] <ObrienDave> timeshift for ubuntu
[04:48] <ObrienDave> more like Win system restore
[04:49] <ObrienDave> or, http://askubuntu.com/questions/424225/setting-up-lvm-snapshot-as-a-backup-restore-point-in-ubuntu
[04:49] <vickycq> OK thanks! I'll check it out.
[04:50] <zykotick9> ObrienDave: ahhh, different type of "snapshot"...  vickycq was asking about the Ubuntu repo, not the local system.  /me hasn't heard of an ubuntu 'snapshot' repo...
[04:51] <ObrienDave> okaaaaay
[05:13] <TechMonger> can someone help me understand the diference between installing ubuntu on a usb or runing it live off a usb?
[05:13] <TechMonger> somehow running it live takes up less space
[05:13] <ObrienDave> live has no "persistence"
[05:14] <ObrienDave> it does not retain settings or what you install
[05:14] <TechMonger> but when i burnt the iso i left space on the usb drive to hold stuff
[05:14] <TechMonger> and i can install stuff on it now
[05:14] <TechMonger> and they stay
[05:14] <TechMonger> but i still run it live
[05:15] <ObrienDave> that is NOT a LiveCD system. you installed it to the USB. that's just like your HD install
[05:15] <TechMonger> i tried to install to it but it wasnt big enough
[05:15] <TechMonger> when it boots it still promps to install or run live
[05:15] <TechMonger> 0.o
[05:16] <ObrienDave> ok, that was done using unetbootin or something similar. that adds persistence
[05:16] <cfhowlett> Techno in other words ... it's a  boot USB and NOT an installed OS
[05:16] <cfhowlett> true ^^^
[05:16] <TechMonger> unetbootin?
[05:16] <TechMonger> wtf is that
[05:16] <cfhowlett> !wtf | TechMonger
[05:17] <ObrienDave> google it
[05:17] <wileee> TechMonger, the live is an packed iso and configs saved. That save is not easily cleanable and fills up IE "persistance" has limitations, an install is an install HD or usb.
[05:17] <ObrienDave> or you used Yumi, LinuxPenInstall
[05:18] <TechMonger> startup disk creator
[05:18] <TechMonger> came with ubuntu
[05:18] <ObrienDave> that will do the same
[05:18] <TechMonger> i burned lubuntu
[05:18] <TechMonger> the install was like 4.7 gig and i only have a 4gig usb
[05:19] <tonyyarusso> ObrienDave, TechMonger: I think recent versions of the Ubuntu images even work with just dd, like Debian ones.
[05:19] <TechMonger> so i just run live
[05:19] <TechMonger> dd?
[05:19] <ObrienDave> tonyyarusso, sounds correct
[05:21] <TechMonger> so why is the OS bigger when you install vs the bootable live version?
[05:21] <TechMonger> you can do all the same stuff from what i can tell
[05:21] <wileee> no
[05:21] <TechMonger> what is missing with the live version?
[05:22] <wileee> an uppacked OS
[05:22] <wileee> unpacked*
[05:22] <TechMonger> lol
[05:22] <cfhowlett> TechMonger, and your .config files
[05:22] <TechMonger> hmm
[05:27] <lesamourai> Problem with  aquarius ubuntu E5 phone , it entered reboot loop and I was asked to reflash it. Phone never gets booted completely , so any possible solutions?
[05:28] <cfhowlett> !touch | lesamourai
[05:29] <lesamourai> thanks
[05:30] <vickycq> Does ubuntu 15.04 use systemd's 'predictable name for network interfaces', like 'wlp6s0' instead of wlan0?
[05:34] <akik> vickycq: no
[05:34] <andrev> jawoll
[05:34] <vickycq> akik, Thanks.
[05:38] <supermanog> hi everyoe
[05:40] <nameuser_> hi there!
[05:43] <akik> vickycq: you can enable the predictable names with net.ifnames=1 on the grub kernel line
[05:44] <akik> vickycq: and emptying /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and restricting that files edits with chattr +i /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[05:44] <vickycq> akik: Thanks, excellent tips!
[05:45] <akik> vickycq: i wasn't aware that that system is under systemd rule
[05:46] <vickycq> akik, I am helping a friend with 15.04 over the internet and I need to make sure not to give him wrong commands.
[05:48] <ObrienDave> have them install an IRC client and join us here
[05:50] <akik> i'm not sure if this is more predictable name or not for a usb wlan stick; it was wlan1 and now it's wlp0s29u1u2 :P
[05:53] <vickycq> If it wasn't for predictable names I just need to tell him 'gimme the output of 'nmcli dev show wlan0'' Now I have to ask him to verify the interface name first.
[05:54] <vickycq> Surely it's hard to predict a name like 'wlp0s29u1u2' :-D
[05:56] <akik> ip -f inet addr show
[06:00] <vickycq> akik, Thanks. The 'ip' command is awesome.
[06:01] <kubuntu_> hi
[06:02] <kubuntu_> i'm downgrading back to 15.04. i get this message:
[06:02] <kubuntu_> sysvinit-utils : Breaks: util-linux (< 2.26.2-3) but 2.25.2-4ubuntu3 is installed.
[06:02] <kubuntu_> what does this mean exactly?
[06:04] <lotuspsychje> kubuntu_: you cant downgrade ubuntu, reinstall fresh instead
[06:04] <kubuntu_> i can't
[06:04] <lotuspsychje> kubuntu_: why
[06:06] <kubuntu_> very long story, i'm forced to get the old system running to access my /home that's why i downgrade. or someone helps me to open my /homefolder and access the files
[06:06] <lotuspsychje> kubuntu_: a fresh install can save your /home aswell
[06:06] <kubuntu_> the upgrade broke systemd for me and now i can't lof in
[06:06] <kubuntu_> log in
[06:07] <vickycq> kubuntu_, sounds like you used encryption for your home folder?
[06:07] <kubuntu_> lotuspsychje: /home is supposedly encrypted
[06:07] <kubuntu_> i did not - at least not knowingly
[06:07] <kubuntu_> gimme a sec
[06:08] <kubuntu_> i'm in a chroot env now. i get this error: ERROR: Encrypted private directory is not setup properly
[06:09] <kubuntu_> this is the command in the README: ecryptfs-mount-private
[06:10] <kubuntu_> i can access the directory when i'm logged in
[06:11] <kubuntu_> where would i find the key for my private data?
[06:11] <kubuntu_> i never entered a key
[06:13] <AgeOfStatic> kubuntu_ : You can access the files in the encrypted /home while logged in?
[06:13] <kubuntu_> no, i can't
[06:13] <kubuntu_> oh, while logged in? YES
[06:13] <kubuntu_> i can't now
[06:14] <N-Sauce> hi
[06:15] <kubuntu_>  /home must be in a state in between. i never set up encryption with a password, so i thought it's not ecrypted, but obviously it started something
[06:15] <AgeOfStatic> have you tried sudo ecryptfs-recover-private /home/user ?
[06:16] <AgeOfStatic> all you need is either the login/password or passphrase created for the encrypted /home on first boot
[06:16] <AgeOfStatic> you mentioned a read me : http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2014/38/1411062920-screenshot-09182014-05-51-04-pm.png
[06:17] <AgeOfStatic> I assume thats what you see.. or something similar...
[06:17] <AgeOfStatic> if so, yes.. I would say its encrypted /home
[06:17] <vickycq> kubuntu_, before proceed with any action, make a backup
[06:18] <AgeOfStatic> vicky == right
[06:18] <vickycq> to elliminate any any possibility of potential data loss
[06:20] <kubuntu_> AgeOfStatic: here is the output of my current console: http://pastebin.com/059fj2EG
[06:20] <kubuntu_> i'm chrooted
[06:21] <kubuntu_> it's what i've tried - no success as you see
[06:22] <kubuntu_> you say the password is the login password? it doesn't work
[06:23] <AgeOfStatic> kubuntu_ : huh, looks like you may need the passphrase. I thought you just needed one of the two.
[06:23] <AgeOfStatic> hmm....
[06:23] <kubuntu_> now i tried no password:
[06:24] <kubuntu_> Enter your MOUNT passphrase:
[06:24] <kubuntu_> Error: Inserting key into the user session keyring failed [-22]
[06:24] <kubuntu_> Info: Check the system log for more information from libecryptfs
[06:24] <AgeOfStatic> ah, I think this worked for a friend of mine once : http://www.howtogeek.com/116179/how-to-disable-home-folder-encryption-after-installing-ubuntu/
[06:24] <AgeOfStatic> try this.
[06:24] <AgeOfStatic> Looks like the method would work.
[06:25] <AgeOfStatic> although, maybe do sudo cp /home/user.backup /home/user at the end there instead of sudo mv /home/user.backup /home/user
[06:25] <AgeOfStatic> so you keep a copy of the backup, just in case...
[06:25] <AgeOfStatic> just a thought.
[06:29] <erste> Hi, I'm new on ubuntu, and I just installed "vim", then realized that I needed to install "vim-gtk" which has some extra features that I need.
[06:29] <erste> should I uninstall "vim"?? or I can just install vim-gtk on top?
[06:31] <akik> erste: did you try it?
[06:31] <AgeOfStatic> erste : Have you used vim before?
[06:31] <erste> not yet, I'm actually google-ing for the uninstall command
[06:32] <erste> AgeOfStatic, yes, but on windows
[06:32] <AgeOfStatic> ah. gotcha
[06:32] <AgeOfStatic> probably sudo apt-get remove vim
[06:32] <akik> erste: the system handles the dependencies, just try to install vim-gtk
[06:32] <Chaser> erste: You should be able to install on top.
[06:32] <erste> oh I see :P
[06:32] <erste> will try thx
[06:33] <erste> oh nice, :echo has('clipboard') worked :), thx
[06:41] <omilun> hello
[06:41] <kubuntu_> AgeOfStatic: so, i've done all this
[06:42] <omilun> i have a problem with chrome
[06:42] <kubuntu_> AgeOfStatic: it's even worse now
[06:42] <cfhowlett> !details | omilun
[06:43] <kubuntu_> AgeOfStatic: that was just silly advice, since i could log in *if* i could get the system to boot
[06:44] <kubuntu_> AgeOfStatic: you gave me a howto with 25k screenshots where a three liner would be sufficient
[06:45] <alcoder> hi, anyone from US ? i would like to have small PM.
[06:46] <ObrienDave> small PM? shudder the thought ;P
[06:46] <alcoder> :(
[06:46] <omilun> cfhowlett: http://dpaste.com/18PT1ZJ
[06:46] <alcoder> small PM, as i don't want to waste their time. just a small question though.
[06:47] <ObrienDave> !ask
[06:48] <omilun> :D
[06:49] <ObrienDave> !ask | alcoder
[06:49] <omilun> hello i have a problem with chromium ... http://dpaste.com/18PT1ZJ
[06:49] <cfhowlett> omilun, yeah, best to ask chromium support
[06:50] <omilun> cfhowlett: aha thx
[06:52] <AgeOfStatic> kubuntu_ : Sorry to hear this. :( My apologies, I didnt judge the advice based on screenshot count.
[06:53] <AgeOfStatic> kubuntu :  You still have the backup folder, right?
[06:57] <AgeOfStatic> not sure why kubuntu_ just didnt copy his files and reinstall fresh as lotuspsychje suggested...
[06:57] <ObrienDave> ummmm, i'm pretty sure they *poofed* awhile ago
[06:57] <AgeOfStatic> yea, I noticed
[06:57] <lotuspsychje> yes fresh
[06:58] <AgeOfStatic> I wasnt sure what the problem was, so you can see the files while logged in... and you can command line copy the files. So.. copy the files and folders to a external or something.. and reinstall
[07:00] <ObrienDave> getting to be a slow night *sigh*
[07:00] <AgeOfStatic> ObrienDave : In here you mean?
[07:01] <neurotus> whats the name of package that chekcks after apt-get upgrade that no processes are using old files ?
[07:03] <AgeOfStatic> neurotus : Are you talking about lsof?
[07:03] <jarnos> What to do, when Wifi connection of my laptop dies after a while. I can connect with no problems by other computers to the wifi.
[07:03] <jarnos> ?
[07:04] <AgeOfStatic> jarnos : try sudo service network-manager restart
[07:04] <AgeOfStatic> or ifconfig wlan0 down && ifconfig wlan0 up
[07:05] <neurotus> AgeOfStatic: no, a program that checks that no services are using old files after apt-get upgrade when services restart
[07:06] <oscar__> any suggestions for old school games with linuxsupport
[07:06] <AgeOfStatic> jarnos : these just restart services/wlan0, it doesnt address WHY you wifi dies...
[07:06] <jarnos> AgeOfStatic, ok, I'll try
[07:07] <AgeOfStatic> neurotus: hmmm, Im not sure. If you do find said program, I would like to know what it is.
[07:07] <AgeOfStatic> oscar__ : Defined "old"
[07:07] <AgeOfStatic> define*
[07:07] <cfhowlett> oscar__, suggest you search the ubuntu software center for "games"
[07:07] <neurotus> AgeOfStatic: its needrestart
[07:08] <neurotus> AgeOfStatic: found it from my pkg-update alias on another system
[07:08] <AgeOfStatic> neurotus: sweet, thanks for sharing that info. ^_^
[07:11] <arussel> when I go to settings -> online accuonts. I can add an account, but then, I don't see it anymore, making it impossible to manage
[07:14] <subterfugium_> Hi all, I'm running 14.04 LTS and I did apt-get upgrade yesterday... all my settings are gone (UI object placement are reset) and all ~/.config is also reset .... anyone seen this before?
[07:15] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, upgrade = you had 14.04 installed and wanted the latest packages >>> 14.043
[07:15] <cfhowlett> 14.04.3
[07:15] <cfhowlett> true?
[07:15] <AgeOfStatic> arussel : You dont see what anymore? The account you made? or the Online Account icon under settings?
[07:16] <subterfugium_> just did regular update
[07:16] <subterfugium_> I remember it says to do partial upgrade or continue but I did the upgrade using apt-get
[07:17] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, again: you HAD 14.04 installed?  and you were upgrading 14.04?
[07:17] <subterfugium_>  sorry, yes I had 14.04
[07:17] <subterfugium_> I've been running it since 2014, same setup, just regular apt-get updates
[07:17] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, then your .config *should not* have been effected.
[07:18] <subterfugium_> yes I know but everything in my .config is gone
[07:18] <subterfugium_> and I had indicator-multimonitor setup on the top bar and that's gone too
[07:18] <ObrienDave> and going to 14.04.3 does NOT require a partial upgrade. iirc
[07:18] <subterfugium_> hexchat irc settings/themes were gone
[07:18] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, extremely weird.  you are using *your* normal account?  I am the only user on my box.  2 accounts: sudo/admin and everyday user/desktop
[07:19] <manuel55> much persons.
[07:19] <manuel55> :/
[07:19] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, is that the ONLY .config that vanished?
[07:19] <subterfugium_> I created my account during installation and been using that ever since
[07:19] <subterfugium_> account is in sudoers
[07:19] <manuel55> yes its logic
[07:19] <manuel55> sub
[07:19] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, OK, last query: Xchat or HEXchat??
[07:19] <cfhowlett> confirm
[07:19] <manuel55> hexchat
[07:19] <subterfugium_> hex
[07:20] <subterfugium_> honestly, I don't know what gone, but all programs are still installed, my network drives are the but all ubuntu default apps has lost their settings
[07:20] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, extremely weird and non-standard behavior.
[07:20] <manuel55> just i are on crunchbang plus plus and i lvoe that os :3
[07:20] <subterfugium_> like hexchat profile, configs for various software in ~/.config are gone
[07:20] <manuel55> "love"
[07:20] <subterfugium_> I'v used many distros for many years and I've never seen this before
[07:21] <cfhowlett> manuel55, you are in the wrong channel. this is ubuntu support.  go to crunchbang for support
[07:21] <manuel55> what distros u ussed ?
[07:21] <subterfugium_> irrelevant
[07:21] <ObrienDave> !en | manuel55
[07:21] <MannyLNJ> I'm trying to setup a VPN connecton (PPTP) to home. Is there a way to test it locally?
[07:21] <cfhowlett> manuel55, doesn't matter. discussion here is ubuntu support.  stay on topic or go elsewhere for chat
[07:21] <subterfugium_> I have some of the configs backed up but not all, damn
[07:22] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, the hexchat .config is buried very deep in your /home.  unless you deliberately purged,  hexchat .config should not have been touched
[07:22] <AgeOfStatic> subterfugium_: Interesting, maybe you can recover the file with something like testdisk?
[07:22] <manuel55> can one show me how to install the ubuntu software center on crunchbang plus plus ? its debian 8 distro ?
[07:22] <subterfugium_> AgeOfStatic, I though of that
[07:23] <AgeOfStatic> subterfugium_:Might be worth a shot, something quick that you could try.
[07:23] <subterfugium_> cfhowlett, just like many other apps has their configs there but mt ~/.config folder seems like I just installed fresh OS
[07:23] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, look for old/backup files and peek at the file creation date: /home/subterfugiu/.config/hexchat/
[07:24] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, as I said, never seen it before.  can't understant 1. why your .config were altered       2. why ONLY .hexchat would be changed.
[07:24] <subterfugium_> most of the files has timestamp last night 9pm, which was when I did the upgrade and reboot
[07:24] <subterfugium_> cfhowlett, it's not only hexchat, all programs/apps that stores information in .config
[07:25] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, any chance you were .... drunk dialing, i.e. exhausted, inebriated?
[07:25] <subterfugium_> haha
[07:25] <cfhowlett> hey, it happens ...
[07:26] <subterfugium_> it's always possible but I weren't intoxicated last night
[07:26] <subterfugium_> now I remember, I was going trhu my old VPS backup
[07:26] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, aaaaaaaaaaaand it begins ...
[07:26] <subterfugium_> it was not zipped in my backup drive and I zipped yesterday
[07:26] <subterfugium_> of course i took the whole VPS with scr -r *
[07:26] <subterfugium_> scp -r
[07:26] <cfhowlett> go ahead, subterfugium_!  start trickling the truth ..
[07:26] <subterfugium_> going thru my 'history'
[07:27]  * cfhowlett looks for a bag of popcorn ...
[07:27] <subterfugium_> I don't remember doing this and the index doesn't match last night but
[07:27] <subterfugium_>  1851  sudo rm -rf .config/
[07:27] <subterfugium_> who did this ? :)
[07:27] <AgeOfStatic> lol
[07:27] <subterfugium_> but the index doesn't match, that's older than yesterday
[07:27] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, ummmmm, yeah.  that WOULD do exactly what you described
[07:28] <cfhowlett> "who" indeed?
[07:28] <subterfugium_> haha
[07:28] <subterfugium_> but I can recover this with testdisk right
[07:28] <AgeOfStatic> you could try testdisk or photorec
[07:28] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, anyone else have your credentials?  got some sick/twisted/vindictive relatives or friends???
[07:28] <cfhowlett> ex-lovers?
[07:28] <subterfugium_> no
[07:28] <subterfugium_> :D
[07:29] <AgeOfStatic> maybe photorec is the one to try first
[07:29] <subterfugium_> I opened 443 port yesterday ...
[07:29] <cfhowlett> subterfugium_, well, now you know WHAT happened.  WHO is an investigation you'll have to do on your own.
[07:29] <subterfugium_> yes
[07:29] <subterfugium_> I was going thru the old backup and building android
[07:30] <subterfugium_> I guess I must have typed that or similar to wrong shell
[07:30]  * cfhowlett tries and fails to restrain LOL ...
[07:31] <AgeOfStatic> yes, excellent cfhowlett, let the laughter flow from you! Muahahahah!
[07:31] <AgeOfStatic> ;)
[07:31] <cfhowlett> hey subterfugium_?  thanks.  I needed a hearty chuckle for today.   best of luck to you.
[07:31] <leoserver> hi
[07:31] <subterfugium_> haha
[07:31] <subterfugium_> you are welcome
[07:32] <leoserver> thank u

[07:38] <salamanderman> !mask
[07:42] <brunchbb> I'm having a problem shutdown...it shutsdown but then turns back on and reboots
[07:42] <brunchbb> I can't turn my computer off

[07:43] <brunchbb> I use the GUI as well as shutdown -h
[07:43] <salamanderman> How do I kill chromium from terminal?
[07:44] <cfhowlett> salamanderman, killall chromium
[07:44] <brunchbb> kill PID
[07:45] <brunchbb> salamanderman: use ps to find the PID, then use kill PID
[07:45] <elosz> salamanderman: ps aux | grep "chromium"
[07:46] <ochiobuntu> can i remove all systemd packages in 15.04 if i use upstart?
[07:52] <iceroot> salamanderman: pkill -f chromium
[07:52] <iceroot> salamanderman: that kills every process containing the string "chromium"
[07:53] <salamanderman> ok
[07:53] <jaska__> how to install kde on top of unity
[07:53] <iceroot> jaska__: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:54] <cfhowlett> jaska__, nope
[07:54] <jaska__> does it fuck up unity desktop
[07:54] <iceroot> jaska__: no
[07:54] <cfhowlett> jaska__, first STOP with that profanity.  you know better.
[07:54] <cfhowlett> jaska__, sudo apt-get install kde-plasma-desktop
[07:54] <jaska__> ok
[07:54] <iceroot> cfhowlett: why not the metapackage?
[07:55] <cfhowlett> iceroot, he asked for the DE.  you told him to install DE and all the kubuntu apps
[07:55] <iceroot> cfhowlett: i thought he talked about whole kde
[07:55] <iceroot> then it was my fault
[07:56] <cfhowlett> iceroot, kde is not kubuntu-desktop.  not a matter of fault :)  I get confused all the time.
[07:57] <iceroot> yeah kubuntu-desktop is kde with also kontact and all the other "funny" stuff :) and also a dependeny for lightdm or whatever it is using :)
[07:58] <salamanderman> i can't install firefox
[07:59] <esteeb> salamenderman: what method are you using to install it?
[08:00] <salamanderman> i tried both sudo-apt
[08:00] <salamanderman> and ubuntu software manager
[08:00] <cfhowlett> salamanderman, sudo-apt?  nope.
[08:00] <cfhowlett> salamanderman, sudo apt install firefox

[08:03] <salamanderman> I think its working xD
[08:04] <salamanderman> I am dumb

[08:07] <elosz> anyone familiar with vfs_stat here?
[08:07] <parapan> hi ppl ...i need help upgrading a 10.04 server to 14.04 ..
[08:07] <parapan> in the way that when I do the do-release-upgrade is checking the mirror from my country and is reporting a network error ...
[08:08] <iceroot> parapan: because 10.04 repo is disabled and its checking that first
[08:08] <parapan> iceroot: how come ?
[08:09] <MonkeyDust> parapan  it's calle !eol
[08:09] <cfhowlett> Paradisee, because it's no longer supported
[08:09] <iceroot> parapan: one fix would be to open /etc/apt/sources.list and to replace the version name from 10.04 with the one from 14.04 and do a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (i dont know if that is supported)
[08:09] <MonkeyDust> called*
[08:09] <cfhowlett> !eol | Paradisee
[08:09] <parapan> iceroot: will it be the case for the mirror I'm using or all over - even the official ubuntu server ?
[08:09] <iceroot> parapan: all servers
[08:09] <iceroot> parapan: use the last link from ubottu
[08:10] <cfhowlett> parapan, you are running your OS in unsupported and NON SECURED mode.  proceed accordingly
[08:10] <iceroot> parapan: the support and repos ended 04.2015
[08:10] <parapan> god Jesus !
[08:10] <parapan> so I'm an outlaw right now !
[08:10] <MonkeyDust> parapan  apparantelaaly you missed something... you're working with a dead system

[08:10] <cfhowlett> Paradisee, not outlaw just an awesome hack target.
[08:11] <parapan> iceroot: MonkeyDust : no brothers ..it;s an old machine I used to setup to play with it; didn't used for a while ..and now wanted to update to latest version - without re-installing everything ...that's it ...
[08:13] <parapan> iceroot: MonkeyDust : but I saw the message of UBUNTU - re-install is usually much more faster =))
[08:13] <parapan> 10x guys ....
[08:13] <parapan> I'l proceed accoprdently ...

[08:52] <tykayn> hi all, I have an issue making my wifi work
[08:53] <tykayn> the lan works, but not the wifi. I have this: Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 20)
[08:53] <tykayn> cigam: do you have an idea for this ? :)
[08:53] <marek_> hi, I have Linux Mint 17.2 which is based on Ubuntu 14.04, but there is a bug in usb_modeswitch package and I can't use my USB modem, in newer version of this package modem seems to work, how do I install this newer package? I found out that I should install it from here https://packages.debian.org/sid/usb-modeswitch but how?
[08:54] <cigam> the wireless is always difficult depending on how new of a wifi adaptor it is
[08:54] <cigam> ill need to look that adaptor up
[08:55] <tykayn> it is quite new I guess
[08:55] <bekks> !mint | marek_
[08:55] <cigam> but which version of ubuntu do you have?
[08:55] <bekks> cigam: He is using Mint.
[08:55] <cigam> sorry talking to tykayn
[08:55] <marek_> but it also affect ubuntu
[08:55] <cigam> but which version?
[08:56] <tykayn> I have ubuntu 14.04
[08:56] <bekks> marek_: But you arent using Ubuntu.
[08:56] <marek_> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-modeswitch/+bug/1314842
[08:56] <tykayn> I put it on my new Acer VN7 791G
[08:56] <cigam> tykayn: most 802.11ac adaptors dont work yet but I had found a link talking about it before let me find it
[08:57] <tykayn> k :)
[08:57] <ochiobuntu> What does urfkill do?
[08:57] <tykayn> maybe ubuntu 15 is better suited for my wifi card
[08:58] <cigam> it might be you could always try it in live mode and see if it works or just upgrade
[08:58] <qyuto> Dual boot or single boot ?
[08:59] <ochiobuntu> Do you have a bot here who knows about urfkill?
[08:59] <MonkeyDust> !find urfkill
[09:00] <ochiobuntu> thanks
[09:00] <MonkeyDust> !info urfkill
[09:00] <tykayn> qyuto: I have a dual boot with windows 10
[09:00] <tykayn> if it were me you asked
[09:05] <cigam> !find ath10k
[09:05] <cigam> tykayn: do you know what kernel you are using?
[09:05] <tykayn> yup
[09:05] <tykayn> cigam: 3.13.0-65-generic
[09:06] <cigam> have you updated ubuntu to the newer kernels?
[09:06] <tykayn> I don't know how to do this
[09:07] <bekks> tykayn: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[09:09] <tykayn> k, I install packages for desktop
[09:09] <cigam> how you install packages have you ever clicked to do updates?
[09:10] <tykayn> hmmm I don't get your question
[09:10] <tykayn> I did apt-get update and upgrades
[09:10] <cigam> yeah thats what I meant
[09:11] <cigam> but it means your repository does not have the newest kernel available that has the ath10k drivers that "should" have your wireless card in it
[09:11] <tykayn> ow
[09:11] <cigam> I think bekks link talks about how to add the newer kernel to your version
[09:11] <CraHan> Hi, is it common behaviour for the dash to only display thumbnails for some JPG files?
[09:12] <tykayn> CraHan: nautilus is configured to show only thumbnails for certain files sizes
[09:12] <CraHan> Well, when I open the file via nautilus and then wait, it eventually shows up in the Dash as a preview too
[09:13] <CraHan> So I'm wondering when the thumbnails are generated.
[09:13] <tykayn> cigam: you suggest I upgrade to ubuntu 15 so ?
[09:13] <CraHan> Nautilus is set to generate previews for images < 10MB and all of them are
[09:13] <tykayn> iwconfig
[09:13] <tykayn> arf, wrong window
[09:14] <tykayn> hm, CraHan then I don't know. maybe they are not real jpg
[09:14] <tykayn> brb
[09:14] <cigam> typically nautilus and other file managers have a limit on file sizes that they will make thumbnails for. are those files a larger file?
[09:15] <CraHan> no, they're below the nautilus limit for creating thumbnails
[09:15] <D00MSKU11> Hello, I'm having a problem, I have dual monitors and everytime I try to access Screen Settings in setting the settings window just dissapears, I cant find anything online, could you help?
[09:15] <CraHan> I've had this issue for quite some versions of Ubuntu and figured I might as well ask around :)
[09:15] <tykayn> k, now I have a 3.19.0-30-generic kernel
[09:16] <D00MSKU11> Anyone?
[09:17] <tykayn> cigam: what can I do now I have the 3.19 version ?
[09:17] <cigam> tykayn you restarted? is it not working now?
[09:17] <tykayn> D00MSKU11: no idea
[09:17] <cigam> or is it working
[09:18] <tykayn> cigam: I restarted, but I still don't have support for wifi, just lan as usual
[09:18] <cigam> hmm let me check something else
[09:19] <tykayn> I want the wifi support so bad so I can use the 4G network of my phone :D
[09:19] <cigam> try doing these 2 commands: sudo rmmod ath10k_pci (then this) sudo modprobe -v ath10k_pci
[09:20] <bekks> tykayn: Did you reboot after installing the LTS Enablement Stack?
[09:20] <tykayn> rmmod: ERROR: Module ath10k_pci is not currently loaded
[09:20] <tykayn> bekks: yes
[09:20] <tykayn> cigam: the first command returns an error
[09:20] <bekks> tykayn: And it tells you whats up ;)
[09:21] <tykayn> hmmm maybe, but that was fast
[09:21] <pyabe> hi guys
[09:21] <alexbucuresti> gi
[09:21] <alexbucuresti> hi
[09:21] <tykayn> hi
[09:22] <pyabe> any interesting topic ?
[09:22] <bekks> pyabe: Ubuntu support. :)
[09:22] <cigam> trying to get an AC wifi adaptor working for tykayn
[09:22]  * tykayn is interested in support for wifi "ac" driver
[09:23] <tykayn> I tried something with backport, involving a make install in the end, but no success
[09:24] <bekks> tykayn: you need to get rid of whatever you installed using "make install" first.
[09:24] <cigam> try this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/661424/ubuntu-14-04-wireless-not-working-no-network-interface-atheros-168c003e-dev
[09:25] <tykayn> I did an autoremove
[09:25] <tykayn> k ill try this
[09:26] <tykayn> that looks easier
[09:28] <tykayn> k I didn't had dkms installed, ill see
[09:30] <tykayn> maybe I should reboot
[09:30] <cigam> after you install yes
[09:30] <tykayn> k
[09:30] <tykayn> brb
[09:31] <tykayn> aw yeahhhhhhh \o/
[09:31] <tykayn> wifi now works
[09:31] <cigam> hehe nice
[09:32] <cigam> glad its working for you now
[09:32] <MonkeyDust> !cookie | cigam
[09:33] <tykayn> you made my day
[09:33] <tykayn> you deserve it
[09:33] <tykayn> now I will be able to host the whole NPM
[09:33] <cigam> glad I could help :-)

[09:45] <leftii> hello
[09:45] <cigam> hi
[09:45] <leftii> can smb help me to connect a blutooth a2dp audio sink?
[09:46] <cigam> that can be tricky
[09:46] <cigam> what version of ubuntu?
[09:47] <leftii> im fairly new to ubuntu. but made my first steps on the mate ver. on the raspberry2. there i somehow got it to work.
[09:47] <lukas_> very good
[09:47] <leftii> i installed bluemon i guess and then i could connect. but now on my desk its not working that way
[09:48] <lukas_> try it again and again and sometime it will gonna work
[09:48] <cigam> I dont have much experience with the rasberry2 but the hardest thing with the bluetooth a2dp is you have to go into either the pulse audio mixer or a good volume controller to be able to pick what you want sent to the bluetooth sink
[09:49] <cigam> !info pavucontrol
[09:49] <leftii> cigam, fresh install of mate dl today
[09:49] <cigam> hmm
[09:49] <cigam> then instead of doing the pulse controller
[09:50] <cigam> try just going into your volume sound preferences
[09:50] <lotuspsychje> leftii: wich version of mate
[09:50] <cigam> in output you should see your bluetooth if its connected
[09:50] <lukas_> bluetooth and Raspberry Pi are no good friends...
[09:51] <leftii> i got it working under raspi with blutooth, now the desktop ver. isnt working. i can connect but it allways says streaming error, also i should input a pin code which the device even dont have.
[09:52] <leftii> lotus, do you mean the desktop environment ver.? its 1.8.2
[09:53] <lotuspsychje> leftii: no i mean ubuntu version
[09:54] <leftii> iam sry, i dont know where to find that information
[09:54] <lotuspsychje> leftii: lsb_release -a
[09:54] <cigam> sorry gotta go yall
[09:54] <leftii> No LSB modules are available.
[09:54] <leftii> Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
[09:54] <leftii> Description:	Ubuntu 15.04
[09:54] <leftii> Release:	15.04
[09:54] <leftii> Codename:	vivid
[09:55] <MonkeyDust> leftii  next time, use a pastebin
[09:55] <leftii> i will
[09:56] <lotuspsychje> leftii: try mate 14.04 for a more stable experience or ask #ubuntu-mate channel
[09:56] <leftii> allright, thanks anyway
[10:09] <quants_> Hi guys, can I play a windows pc game on my Ubuntu system using Wine?
[10:10] <nameuser_> quants_: some games, i think. There is a list of games that work well. You can google it.
[10:10] <bazhang> check the appdb quants_
[10:10] <bazhang> !appdb | quants_
[10:11] <bazhang> also steam quants_
[10:11] <bazhang> !steam | quants_
[10:15] <MrRiver> hey, my ubuntu says that wifi is hardblocked, I checked my wifi button with xev and it seems it doesn't even log an event
[10:15] <rawcoder> hi, I'm using ubuntu 15.10 beta and I'm getting an assertion error in pidgin. Can anyone help me?
[10:15] <bazhang> MrRiver, an external wifi switch how about
[10:15] <MonkeyDust> rawcoder  ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:15] <bazhang> rawcoder, the +1 channel for that
[10:16] <rawcoder> ok, thanks
[10:16] <MrRiver> bazhang: yeah, I have an external wifi switch, but as I said, he doesn't do anything. Using xev I saw that it doesn't even give some kind of event
[10:17] <bazhang> MrRiver, I had the exact same issue, a simple block unblock on login and it was back on and finding networks etc
[10:18] <bazhang> no idea why xev is involved here at all
[10:18] <MrRiver> doesn't xev just log all keypress etc events?
[10:18] <MrRiver> and if I don't even get an event there how is linux supposed to even notice I am switching the hardware block
[10:19] <MrRiver> the hardware block isn't an actually switch, it is just a key on my keyboard
[10:19] <bazhang> oh you said it was a switch
[10:19] <bazhang> yeah I have a switch
[10:20] <ochiobuntu> I have the file Access-Your_Private-Data.desktop - it is my encrypted home-directory. How do I proceed? I get an error saying that "Encrypted private directory is not setup properly"
[10:22] <quants_> Thanks guys
[10:23] <MonkeyDust> ochiobuntu  is this useful http://askubuntu.com/questions/71708/how-do-i-open-access-your-private-data-desktop
[10:23] <ochiobuntu> I can't open any links right now
[10:24] <ochiobuntu> Does it say anything else than the README I found next to this Access-Your-Private_data.desktop?
[10:25] <ochiobuntu> I tried ecryptfs-mount-private
[10:25] <ochiobuntu> didn't help, gave me said error
[10:25] <MonkeyDust> ochiobuntu  then start from the beginning, what have you done and tried so far
[10:26] <ac3takwas> how much does the unity DE affect my system's performance.
[10:26] <ac3takwas> I hate it when it hangs and I am considering switching to a new desktop environment
[10:26] <ac3takwas> sed s/hangs/lags/
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> ac3takwas  remove zeitgeist, it will improve the performance
[10:28] <ochiobuntu> MonkeyDust: With regards to this encryption: I recovered the encrypted file as root with ecryptfs-recover-private, it created a folder in /tmp where I see the same content as I see in my /home - nothing is decryprted
[10:28] <MonkeyDust> ac3takwas  http://hardenubuntu.com/disable-services/disable-zeitgeist/
[10:29] <ac3takwas> MonkeyDust, thanks. I'll try that now
[10:31] <Nelson1> hello
[10:32] <ochiobuntu> MonkeyDust: I also get this error: Mount on filesystem of type eCryptFS explicitly disallowed due to kown incompatibilities
[10:32] <ochiobuntu> this is when i run recover i the /tmp folder
[10:33] <ochiobuntu> I have no way to recover that folder
[10:36] <absklb> hi
[10:37] <ac3takwas> Is there a way to view the list of all my apps so I remove other unnecessary ones like that zeitgeist?
[10:37] <absklb> i have removed nginx. but somehow it conflicts with apache. when i restart laptop if i directly go to localhost it tells me nginx 4040 error. sometimes later on it even conclict with my passenger.
[10:37] <absklb> so everytime, first i have to do service nginxs top
[10:37] <absklb> what shall i do?
[10:38] <bazhang> whats the goal here ac3takwas
[10:38] <bazhang> speed up the system?
[10:38] <absklb> i thought software centel list all apps ? ac3takwas
[10:39] <bazhang> get lubuntu on there ac3takwas , removing some random things like that will have a very mininal impact on speed if any
[10:39] <bazhang> and minimal
[10:41] <bazhang> !lubuntu | ac3takwas
[10:41] <ac3takwas> bazhang, I asked earlier if I should switch desktop manager to something like i3 to improve performance
[10:42] <ac3takwas> bazhang, MonkeyDust suggested I remove zeitgeist which I did. So I'm looking for other ways to boost performance.
[10:42] <Ben64> depends what you're running and your specs
[10:42] <ac3takwas> I use a lot of workspaces often, and my hardware isn't that new
[10:42] <absklb> ac3takwas: sure. i am using i3. its minimal.
[10:42] <ac3takwas> it's a 2011 model i5
[10:43] <absklb> ac3takwas: whats your current RAM, graphics card ?
[10:43] <bazhang> ac3takwas, such minimal removals wont help much, try lubuntu or other super lightweight
[10:43] <Ben64> anything that isn't unity should be pretty quick
[10:43] <ac3takwas> it's a 2011 model i5 processor
[10:43] <bazhang> what is the ram ac3takwas
[10:43] <jackphelipe> hi everyone
[10:43] <ac3takwas> bazhang, that's expensive given I have to resinstall most apps
[10:43] <ac3takwas> RAM is 4GB
[10:44] <bazhang> so get a light de ac3takwas
[10:44] <bazhang> its free to try ac3takwas
[10:44] <bazhang> full refund if you dont like it
[10:44] <ac3takwas> bazhang, any suggestions on a stable one?
[10:44] <ac3takwas> haha. Yes I know that
[10:44] <bazhang> ac3takwas, I said already twice
[10:44] <ac3takwas> And I don't have to uninstall Unity to try
[10:44] <bazhang> lubuntu
[10:44] <absklb> ac3takwas: xfce. check Manjaro
[10:44] <bazhang> no
[10:44] <akik> i'm running kde on a 2011 acer w/ i3 processor just fine
[10:45] <bazhang> lubuntu-desktop
[10:45] <ac3takwas> bazhang, isn't lubuntu a completely new os
[10:45] <absklb> yes
[10:45] <absklb> Manjaro
[10:45] <ac3takwas> I just need a didd DE
[10:45] <bazhang> then choose lubuntu session at login
[10:45] <jackphelipe> any suggest where can I buy a 4GB ram for my notebook upgrade?
[10:45] <absklb> jackphelipe: amazon.com?
[10:45] <ac3takwas> diff*
[10:45] <Ben64> jackphelipe: ask in ##hardware
[10:45] <bazhang> ac3takwas, no, its ubuntu all the way down, same repos everything
[10:45] <bekks> ac3takwas: lubuntu is Ubuntu with a specific set of packages, LXDE in particular.
[10:46] <bazhang> newegg jackphelipe , #ubuntu-offtopic for more
[10:46] <ac3takwas> bekks, bazhang what I am saying is it would require me to redownload and install all my apps
[10:46] <bekks> ac3takwas: no.
[10:46] <ac3takwas> That would cost a lot of data
[10:46] <bazhang> no
[10:46] <jackphelipe> I'll give a shot
[10:46] <ac3takwas> Okay any helpful links to get it?
[10:46] <bazhang> ok
[10:46] <bazhang> yes'
[10:47] <bekks> ac3takwas: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop :)
[10:47] <bazhang> apt-get install lubuntu-desktop
[10:47] <bazhang> use sudo with that ac3takwas
[10:48] <ac3takwas> thanks. started
[10:48] <bazhang> welcome
[10:48] <ac3takwas> but how does that compare against i3 in your opinion
[10:48] <ac3takwas> ?
[10:48] <bazhang> never used it, no idea
[10:49] <bekks> ac3takwas: Comparing a desktop environment against a CPU is quite irrelevant. Comparing desktop environments would be more targetting.
[10:49] <absklb> what no? he will need to download new .iso and download all new aps to innstall? bazhang ac3takwas
[10:49] <absklb> bekks: ?
[10:49] <auronandace> bekks: does he mean i3 the tiling window manager?
[10:49] <bekks> absklb: Thats nonsense.
[10:49] <bekks> auronandace: No, he is talking about his CPU :)
[10:49] <absklb> why are you saying that he wont need data to downnload new iso?
[10:50] <bekks> absklb: Because he doesnt need to do that.
[10:50] <absklb> bekks: and then he gets .iso how?
[10:50] <bazhang> absklb, he doesnt thats why
[10:50] <bekks> absklb: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop; is all whats needed.
[10:50] <bekks> absklb: HE doesnt need an iso...
[10:50] <ac3takwas> bekks, not CPU
[10:50] <absklb> oh....
[10:50] <bazhang> absklb, he doesnt need the new iso
[10:50] <absklb> yeah
[10:50] <ac3takwas> I'm comparing lubuntu-destiop with i3
[10:51] <bekks> ac3takwas: Never used i3, sorry.
[10:51] <ac3takwas> bekks, ok
[10:53] <absklb> ac3takwas: if you want lightwient DE use lubuntu/xubuntu. if you dont want DE at all just minimal window manager get i3. i am using i3. its good.
[10:54] <somsom> I'm having issues with sound
[10:54] <somsom> my onboard soundcard is not being detected neither in alsamixer nor pulseaudio
[10:55] <absklb> somsom: does lspci lists it?
[10:55] <ac3takwas> absklb, okay thanks
[10:55] <somsom> one moment
[10:56] <somsom> 00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Device a170 (rev 31)
[10:56] <ac3takwas> absklb, from experience, what are some known limitations with i3?
[10:56] <ac3takwas> apart from ease of use of mouse of course
[10:56] <absklb> ac3takwas: regarding what?
[10:57] <ac3takwas> like, what would you miss being able to do with a DE?
[10:57] <absklb> ac3takwas: notifications. integrations.
[10:57] <absklb> desktop widgets.
[10:58] <absklb> having to to one time manualy setup.
[10:58] <lotuspsychje> ac3takwas: there's a large #i3 channel if you want
[10:58] <absklb> yeah
[10:58] <absklb> i still did not got answer to my queestion how to change font and size of i3status bar!
[10:59] <lotuspsychje> absklb: also join #i3
[10:59] <ac3takwas> lotuspsychje, I did. Seems so quiet in ther
[10:59] <ac3takwas> ther*
[10:59] <ac3takwas> there*
[10:59] <absklb> yeah. me too was there. no reply.
[11:00] <lotuspsychje> its your best luck to get specific answers when timezones more crowdy
[11:00] <ac3takwas> absklb, okay
[11:00] <ac3takwas> thanks guys
[11:08] <JethroTux> does ~/.profile get sourced from DM (ie. lightdm) or it gets sourced only for bash login/nologin shells?
[11:09] <absklb> JethroTux: i think only for bash. DEs have their own in .confir or their own .openbox etc
[11:09] <absklb> *i think*
[11:10] <kubast2> Which kvm disk bus should I use for windows 7 guest: IDE/SATA/Virtio ?
[11:10] <kubast2> Does it change i/o performance in any way?
[11:12] <JethroTux> absklb, I've just installed debian jessie and I noticed i need to use .xsessionrc (per user) or /etc/X11/Xsession.d for global settings. .profile nor /etc/profile.d/*.sh get sourced from DM. I think new LightDM does not source those files anymore
[11:13] <JethroTux> they work for bash login/interactive shells though
[11:13] <MonkeyDust> JethroTux  this is the ubuntu support channel, not debian
[11:13] <brothersome> kubast2, IMHO it does not matter
[11:13] <lotuspsychje> kubast2: maybe the #kvm guys might know?
[11:13] <kubast2> checked and virtio should give the best result
[11:13] <absklb> JethroTux: why not use xsessionrc?
[11:15] <JethroTux> absklb, i need to set some env variables globally! it seems i need to create a script in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/. or just get rid of dm :)
[11:16] <absklb> JethroTux: ok. try asknig in debian channel. the .profile should work i think. not sure.
[11:18] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[11:19] <JethroTux> absklb, I've just checked it does not on debian. I wanted to know if it works on ubuntu instead. that's why I asked here, I usually used it on trusty as much as /etc/profile.d/*.sh and ~/.pam_environment. that's all well explained on ubuntu man pages too.
[11:20] <absklb> ok.
[11:20] <JethroTux> did I miss anything?
[11:20] <absklb> no.
[11:41] <parapan> having troubles installing server 14.04 ..anyone can support ?
[11:41] <cfhowlett> !server | Paradisee
[11:41] <cfhowlett> parapan, ^^^ this
[11:41] <parapan> cfhowlett: ^^ ?
[11:41] <parapan> what the issue ?
[11:42] <cfhowlett> parapan, you asked about server ...
[11:42] <parapan> installation stucked at select and install software ...it tells me an error has occured; I moved on to the next step which is grub install ..it tells me that grub cannot be installed
[11:43] <parapan> cfhowlett: and without grub the system will not boot ...
[11:43] <cfhowlett> parapan, perhaps you should ask in the SERVER channel???? #ubuntu-server
[11:43] <parapan> cfhowlett: didn't knew that - 10x man
[11:44] <cfhowlett> happy2help! parapan
[11:46] <safariman> any channels where I can learn about pentesting
[11:47] <MonkeyDust> what's pentesting?
[11:47] <hackn01d> penetration testing
[11:48] <MonkeyDust> hackn01d  /msg alis list blah
[11:49] <hypermist> I know i came in here lastnight asking about selling custom Ubuntu images, but would it be the same if i sold a usb with a custom modified ubuntu os on it ? (im guessing it would be)
[11:49] <Bernzel> How can I run Java .class files?
[11:49] <Bernzel> I have jdk installed
[11:51] <apriori_> привет
[11:51] <aliaksandrch> java mainClass.class
[11:51] <hypermist> Bernzel, probably best to install jre and jdk just saying
[11:52] <Bernzel> hypermist, do I need JRE too? :s
[11:52] <hypermist> Bernzel, normally a best thing to have bost
[11:52] <Bernzel> When that is installed then? How would I run those files?
[11:52] <aliaksandrch> you don't need jdk until you want to compile java sources
[11:55] <Bernzel> aliaksandrch, well I got it installed now, so how do I run these files?
[11:55] <Trow> hey i have an issue and i'm not sure if it's related to ubuntu or to docker
[11:56] <aliaksandrch> you need to know which .class file is a main one
[11:56] <aliaksandrch> than: java MainClass.class
[11:56] <Bernzel> okey, how do I find that out?
[11:56] <jarnos> How do you report wifi bugs?
[11:56] <Trow> anyone could give me about this config
[11:56] <Trow> http://pastebin.com/99UWgRhH
[11:56] <geirha> just java MainClass  without the extension
[11:56] <Trow> i cant access to foo.bar.com
[11:57] <geirha> the jdk will pull in the jre automatically, so you have it already
[11:57] <Bernzel> geirha, so just java MainClass on command line?
[11:58] <Quantos> We don't support programming or coding in the chat
[11:58] <Quantos> You'll want the forum for that
[11:58] <Quantos> Whoops
[11:58] <Quantos> Wrong window
[11:58] <Quantos> My bad
[11:58] <Quantos> LMAO
[12:00] <geirha> Bernzel: Yes, assuming you are in the right directory, and that the java file is simple enough
[12:00] <Bernzel> geirha, there's no software in the Software Center that can handle this? I don't seem to be able to execute the file
[12:01] <geirha> Bernzel: Normally, you don't run java classes directly; mainly only when you're developing it yourself.
[12:02] <geirha> for java software you install, there'll be a wrapper script and often desktop launchers to make it easy to run it
[12:02] <geirha> Bernzel: So why are you trying to run it this way?
[12:03] <Bernzel> geirha, It's a setup software for Libgdx. A framework.
[12:03] <safariman> anyone know pentesting channels on Freenode
[12:04] <cfhowlett> !alis | safariman
[12:04] <Bernzel> geirha, It's the only way to run it
[12:05] <geirha> Bernzel: Looks like it has lots of documentation with youtube videos and everything; why not follow those?
[12:05] <Bernzel> geirha, watched those thousands of times. It has nothing specified about this.
[12:05] <aliaksandrch> also it has README in the installation packed and looks like it just a set of .jar to include to a project (eclipse, idea or any other ide)
[12:06] <geirha> Bernzel: did you try ''gradlew desktop:run''
[12:06] <Bernzel> geirha, what? That's not for the setup. That's for running projects.
[12:08] <geirha> Bernzel: Ah, well just use an IDE, then?
[12:09] <geirha> Bernzel: Downloading it gives me gdk-setup.jar.  To run that, it's  java -jar ~/Downloads/gdk-setup.jar  # or wherever you downloaded it too.
[12:10] <geirha> err, gdx-setup.jar (not gdk)
[12:11] <anternat> hello, i upgraded from 14.04 to 15.04 but i cant ssh or use http on my server from within LAN. (Server can connect to internet)
[12:11] <cfhowlett> !server | anternat
[12:12] <anternat> mine is desktop version..
[12:13] <anternat> i installed ssh server again ;checked the status if it is up and confirmed it running.Disaled FW
[12:13] <anternat> disabled*. Still cant connect

[12:17] <pev> Could you help me ? I am looking for an active channel on GIS, would you know one?
[12:18] <cfhowlett> !alis | pev
[12:19] <pev> help list
[12:19] <elacheche_anis> Hey! I  need a feedback, is it for real that Ubuntu 14.04 and latest versions needs only 1GB of RAM?!
[12:19] <pev> cfhowlett: Thank you !
[12:19] <cfhowlett> elacheche_anis, technically it CAN run on 1gb but it will be slow.  lubuntu or xubuntu would be faster
[12:20] <elacheche_anis> cfhowlett: that's what I was looking for thank you :) :D Didn't run the official version of Ubuntu for years now.. So it's always safe to ask :)
[12:21] <cfhowlett> elacheche_anis, I guessed as much. note: lubuntu is optimized for legacy hardware.  start there, IMHO
[12:22] <elacheche_anis> I will cfhowlett :) Thanks :)
[12:22] <cfhowlett> happy2help!
[12:22] <jarnos> Hey come on, ubuntu-bug does not work. How can you report that?
[12:23] <safariman> is perl already installed on ubutu
[12:23] <MonkeyDust> jarnos  start from the beginning, what brings you here
[12:23] <cfhowlett> safariman, open a terminal: dpkg -l perl
[12:26] <geirha> safariman: Many of the commands and programs installed by default are perl scripts, so yes, it's definitely installed
[12:28] <safariman> ok
[12:29] <safariman> And how do I run a perl script that i downloaded online
[12:29] <safariman> @ geirha
[12:29] <geirha> like with any other command.    chmod +x perlscript    and then    ./perlscript
[12:30] <safariman> i am a linux n00b
[12:31] <geirha> the chmod sets execute permission on the file so that you can run it with  ./scriptname
[12:31] <Major_Ramsey> Anyone ever had to use 7z to unzip a bunch of files all with the same password?
[12:31] <safariman> ok
[12:31] <geirha> or if you put it somewhere in PATH, e.g. /usr/local/bin/ or ~/bin/, then you can run it without providing a path like ./. Just  "scriptname"
[12:32] <lotuspsychje> Major_Ramsey: unzipping several compressed files at same time will eat cpu and ram alot
[12:32] <lotuspsychje> Major_Ramsey: or they smiler compressed files?
[12:33] <lotuspsychje> samller
[12:33] <lotuspsychje> smaller
[12:33] <geirha> Major_Ramsey: Do you have a line for uncompressing a single zip file?
[12:34] <Major_Ramsey> It's just a directory of zip files. I was hoping I could run a script or a command and have them decrypt one after another
[12:34] <safariman> geirha, this is what happened when i tried to run AdminLoginFInder
[12:34] <safariman> Can't locate Tk.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Tk module)
[12:34] <Major_Ramsey> I tried 7z but I get a "Incorrect Command Line" error
[12:35] <lotuspsychje> Major_Ramsey: http://sourceforge.net/p/sevenzip/discussion/45797/thread/da70f522
[12:35] <Major_Ramsey> Not really concerned about the system load
[12:35] <geirha> safariman: then you probably need to install perl-tk; sudo apt install perl-tk
[12:36] <lotuspsychje> Major_Ramsey: or here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4273576/extract-multiple-7z-files-in-folder-at-once-in-ubuntu-linux
[12:36] <Major_Ramsey> Checking them out now, Thanks
[12:41] <anonymous> Hi

[12:43] <anonymous> i was configuring the morror nd i cannot connect
[12:44] <lotuspsychje> anonymous: you sure you properly connected to internet?
[12:44] <anonymous> lotuspsychje
[12:45] <anonymous> i am connecting to the same router that i am using to connect to the internet
[12:45] <lotuspsychje> anonymous: cable or wifi?
[12:45] <anonymous> lotuspsychje:wifi
[12:45] <lotuspsychje> anonymous: try cable mate
[12:46] <anonymous> ok....
[12:46] <xela2244> hi, openoffice  and anyother alternatives are not working, i tried installing fglrx-update but that caused other problems. Help
[12:46] <anonymous> lotuspsychje:let me check that
[12:46] <xela2244> openoffice calc is not working, writer is working
[12:46] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: what happens when you start calc?
[12:47] <xela2244> black screen and then logs me out
[12:47] <xela2244> happens with calligra spreadshet (calc alternative) too
[12:48] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: wich ubuntu version are you on?
[12:48] <xela2244> kubuntu 15.04
[12:48] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: you could ask in #kubuntu or install a more stable 14.04 LTS
[12:49] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: have you installed openoffice or using libreoffice?
[12:49] <xela2244> it works with fglrx-updates, but if install fglrx-updates than i can't adjust screen brightness
[12:49] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: fglrx is for your graphics card
[12:49] <xela2244> lotuspsychje: i had the same problem with ubuntu
[12:49] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: what chipset is your card?
[12:50] <tom45679> i want to upgrade my ubuntu from 14.04 to 15... someone please help me how can i do it?
[12:50] <xela2244> the problem is in the graphics card
[12:50] <cfhowlett> tom45679, sudo do-release-upgrade
[12:50] <cfhowlett> tom45679, oh wait ....
[12:51] <xela2244> but i with fglrx-update openoffice calc will work, but then i can't adjust brightness
[12:51] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | tom45679  this is the correct method
[12:51] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: best is to use driver ubuntu chosen at setup, did you enable internet cable + updates during setup?
[12:51] <tom45679> @cfhowlett ok
[12:52] <xela2244> yes
[12:52] <xela2244> at the moment i'm not using standard drivers
[12:52] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: check your additional drivers section, and check wich driver works best for your system
[12:52] <safariman> guys
[12:53] <safariman> wtf is a default keyring

[12:55] <xela2244> i'm using xorg driver
[12:56] <lotuspsychje> ok
[12:57] <lotuspsychje> xela2244: maybe try kubuntu 14.04 or try the #kubuntu channel they might know

[13:07] <pmaxk> Hi to all
[13:07] <lotuspsychje> welcome pmaxk
[13:08] <pmaxk> How thinks going?
[13:08] <lotuspsychje> !discuss | pmaxk
[13:09] <pmaxk> Do you like unity?
[13:10] <lotuspsychje> pmaxk: only support questions here please
[13:10] <hypermist> lotuspsychje, probably not a question for you but, If i modified ubuntu OS, to my liking and sold bootable usb's with it on it. im guessing i'd need Conanical permissions still correct ?
[13:11] <lotuspsychje> hypermist: sell?
[13:11] <cfhowlett> hypermist, you can't call it "ubuntu" anything if you mod it.
[13:11] <hypermist> cfhowlett, no i wont be calling it ubuntu
[13:12] <lotuspsychje> hypermist: you can sell your filled usb's allright, but asking money for an opensource Os would be bad idea
[13:12] <cfhowlett> though it has been done.  badly.
[13:12] <hypermist> Well i'd make it from scratch but im a tad stupid ;)
[13:12] <MonkeyDust> hypermist  but if you can make people pay for it, you're a winner
[13:13] <hypermist> MonkeyDust, Some people do though ;)
[13:13]  * MonkeyDust wants to become rich by making people believe in something
[13:13] <lotuspsychje> hypermist: i dont think portable Os will make you very rich :p
[13:13] <hypermist> lotuspsychje, Not even a little rish ;)
[13:13] <pmaxk> Oh..what i did..!!...sory
[13:14] <lotuspsychje> hypermist: but maybe a modified ubuntu based distro and invent crazy name and install on pc's might make $$$
[13:14] <hypermist> lotuspsychje, do the microsoft tatic you reckon ;)
[13:14] <lotuspsychje> !release | NeverWinter
[13:15] <hypermist> lotuspsychje, that'd be a nasty malware (Make a fake windows 10 malware) and make it update their pc to a Custom OS in the background that'd be so mean xD
[13:16] <pmaxk> Do you like that 6 months upgrade..again and again..
[13:16] <lotuspsychje> hypermist: that might be more for #ubuntu-offtopic :p
[13:16] <hypermist> lotuspsychje, true but i shall hush now ;)

[13:43] <ac3takwas> how do I add a buddy on here in IRC if I want to communicate frequently with him?
[13:43] <C_minus> Does the Ubuntu installer memory stick contain GParted? I need GParted on some kind of bootable media.
[13:44] <Abcdfg> invite participant
[13:44] <cfhowlett> C_minus, yes
[13:44] <lotuspsychje> ac3takwas: remember his name :p
[13:45] <C_minus> cfhowlett - how do I get to it - "Try Ubuntu"? then what?
[13:45] <ac3takwas> lotuspsychje, how?
[13:45] <cfhowlett> C_minus, then hit the dash and search for gpartd
[13:45] <C_minus> oh ok, because it isn't in my actual running copy of ubuntu, i already searched for it.
[13:46] <Mega> Hi guys! Could someone tell me please, is there any utility to check my windows partition from ubuntu? Something like chkdsk /f in windows
[13:46] <cfhowlett> Mega, use windows for verify windows
[13:47] <C_minus> Should I shrink Win7, leaving free space, then check it works, THEN grow Ubuntu afterwards? OR should I do it all in one go?
[13:48] <cfhowlett> C_minus, shrink win7, boot it and verify it flies.  it'll probably demand a chkdsk.  once win7 is set, do your ubuntu install.
[13:49] <Mega> cfhowlett: I have no windows on my pc :D but I have to chkdsk a hdd
[13:50] <lotuspsychje> Mega: what kinda check do you want on a non-working win partition?
[13:52] <Mega> lotuspsychje: something kinda windows CHKDSK but it should work under ubuntu :3 could you advise me one please?
[13:52] <cfhowlett> fsck
[13:53] <Mega> cfhowlett: thank you! I'll google it right now
[13:53] <cfhowlett> Mega, no google.  man fsck

[14:04] <lotuspsychje> the last one was prob thank you
[14:29] <C_minus> I am in GParted, running off my bootable Ubuntu mem-stick. I have shrunk Win7, leaving 120GB unallocated space. But I cant grow the Ubuntu partition, it won't allow me to make it any larger. What gives???!?!
[14:29] <Mega> cfhowlett: lotuspsychje thank you guys!
[14:30] <cfhowlett> Mega, happy2help!
[14:31] <SchrodingersScat> C_minus: can you maybe only grow it in one direction?
[14:31] <C_minus> It's almost all the way to the right. Unallocated space is to the left of it. Whatever that means...
[14:32] <SchrodingersScat> could try a move then a grow then, backups are taken right?
[14:33] <cdk_> my system wants to update but says there is not enough space in /boot and to delete old files but I'm not sure what files are old
[14:33] <cfhowlett> cdk_, /boot contains kernels.  time to clear out old ones
[14:33] <cfhowlett> http://www.unixmen.com/how-to-uninstall-the-old-kernels-in-ubuntu/
[14:34] <cdk_> how do i tell what ones are old?
[14:34] <cfhowlett> numerical.  low number >>> old kernel
[14:35] <C_minus> ShrodingersScat - how do I do that? For me it goes: sda1 (system reserved), sda2 (Win7 - just been shrunk),, unallocated, sda3 (divided into Ubuntu and swap), unallocated (only 1MB).
[14:37] <auronandace> C_minus: so ubuntu and swap are logical partitions.. this means you need to enlarge the extended partition first
[14:38] <cfhowlett> C_minus, sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999
[14:38] <C_minus> auronandace: When I click the sda3 extended partition, the resize button gets greyed out. :(
[14:39] <gioans> helloo i am a new ubuntu
[14:39] <auronandace> C_minus: if any partitions before it are mounted then they need to be unmounted
[14:39] <cfhowlett> gioans, ask your ubuntu question
[14:41] <gioans> i uses ubuntu 14.04.X , when i changed my SIDD wwifi, my computer was break
[14:41] <C_minus> auronandace I'm not running Ubuntu, I'm runnning "Try Ubuntu" off the installer stick.
[14:42] <lotuspsychje> gioans: you cant break a computer with an ssid, tell us what happened?
[14:42] <auronandace> C_minus: regardless, gparted will show you if anything is currently mounted
[14:42] <auronandace> gioans: so connect to the new ssid then
[14:42] <rejd_> hey guys, i need a music player recommendation :)
[14:43] <auronandace> rejd_: terminal or graphical?
[14:43] <C_minus> auronandace sorry but how do i found out/do that??
[14:43] <rejd_> whatever :)
[14:43] <lotuspsychje> !info clementine | rejd_
[14:43] <auronandace> rejd_: i like cmus for the terminal

[14:43] <cfhowlett> rejd_, use the default that come with your ubuntu
[14:44] <gioans> no, if i chosen another SSID, my ubuntu was break, i can not use, i can you after i reset with power buton
[14:44] <auronandace> C_minus: there is a mountpoint column
[14:44] <rejd_> i have gmusicbrowser preinstalled and it behaves really badly, so no :)
[14:44] <rejd_> thanks ill look into cmus/mopidy :D
[14:45] <gioans> now i uses ubuntu 14.04 it ok
[14:45] <SchrodingersScat> rejd_: if you're used to an mpd it's not bad
[14:45] <gioans> no have error that

[14:47] <cfhowlett> C_minus, I deliberately did not ask for pastebin.  blocked in china.  sorry.
[14:47] <Jakey2> is there a way to monitor power usage by a computer through ubuntu accurately
[14:47] <C_minus> auronandace no there isnt theres "partition", "file system" "label" "size" "used" "unused" "flags"
[14:47] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: wich application on wich ubuntu version?

[14:49] <cfhowlett> C_minus, right.  your computer has mbr partition table so you can have only 4 pirmary partitions.
[14:49] <Jakey2> lotuspsychje, thanks
[14:49] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: wich game
[14:49] <C_minus> cfhowlett what difference does that make? I just want to resize them, not change how many there are.
[14:50] <auronandace> C_minus: try highlighting the swap partition, ist currently being used?
[14:51] <djjeff> lotuspsychje: maybe this gdb backtrace would help http://paste.ubuntu.com/12576171/
[14:52] <C_minus> auronandace out of 15.9GB swap partition, 4kb is being used.
[14:52] <djjeff> it seems to only seg fault when I load a save state
[14:52] <auronandace> C_minus: sorry, i meant is it active now, if it is in use then you'll need to swappoff
[14:53] <C_minus> why does that make it impossivble to resize the ubuntu partition? how can i check if its active?
[14:53] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: tryed another graphics driver?
[14:54] <djjeff> does the backtrace hint its my drivers?
[14:54] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: no im browsing errors
[14:55] <auronandace> C_minus: because you want to resize the extended partition first then the ubuntu partition after, the swap partition is inside the extended partition, if it is in use then you can't resize the extended partition
[14:55] <C_minus> auronandace how can  i check/turn it off??
[14:56] <auronandace> C_minus: sorry, i'm not sure since i never bother with swap partitions
[14:56] <jpds> auronandace: Wow, do you hate suspending?
[14:57] <auronandace> jpds: i never suspend
[14:57] <lotuspsychje> me neither
[14:57] <lotuspsychje> a pc needs to be used
[14:57] <C_minus> auronandace, so when i right click the Ubuntu drive in the "Files" sidebar, it gives me the option to mount it (so I assume its unmounted)
[14:57] <lotuspsychje> if you dont use: sudo halt :p
[14:57] <C_minus> cfhowlett any ideas??
[14:58] <cfhowlett> C_minus, auronandace has it right.
[14:59] <auronandace> C_minus: highlight the swap partition and rightclick it
[14:59] <auronandace> C_minus: it should show you the option to swapoff
[14:59] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: the name of the emulator you suing would be usefull
[15:00] <djjeff> lotuspsychje: its in the ubuntu paste that I linked along with the gdb backtrace
[15:00] <C_minus> cfhowlett and auronandace, you were right, thanks very much. all worked according to plan!
[15:00] <C_minus> oh shit wait no
[15:00] <auronandace> !yay | C_minus
[15:00] <C_minus> sorry
[15:01] <C_minus> sorry for bad language
[15:01] <C_minus> i grew the extended partition (containing Ubuntu and Swap), but Ubuntu remains small. So now I just resize the Ubuntu partition INSIDE the extended partition right?
[15:02] <auronandace> C_minus: precisely
[15:02] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: is this vba-m visual boy?
[15:02] <C_minus> thanks all you guys! it seems to be working, a prograss bar is very slowly filling up. thanks again. see ya
[15:03] <djjeff> from the PPA getdeb.net
[15:03] <lotuspsychje> !ppa | djjeff
[15:03] <FedToshSat> exit
[15:03] <djjeff> you did not need to link that I know what a PPA is
[15:03] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: we cant help on ppa installed stuff
[15:03] <djjeff> I should not have told you it was a PPA
[15:04] <djjeff> because the version in the ubuntu repos is older
[15:04] <djjeff> and even more broken
[15:04] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: search or file a bug on the maintainers page
[15:04] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: the more info we gather from you, the better your issue can be solved
[15:04] <djjeff> I think a gdb backtrace is pretty impressive
[15:05] <djjeff> most people probley wont even offer one
[15:05] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: you got same crash on the one from repos?
[15:05] <djjeff> you are right about maintainers having to support it but when the maintainers are hard to find
[15:06] <djjeff> you go with what is avail
[15:06] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: we have to follow the rules mate
[15:06] <djjeff> its not like I am asking you to support my windows 98 computer in an ubuntu channel
[15:07] <djjeff> I am asking to get help on a game I play on ubuntu which is crashing
[15:07] <lotuspsychje> !latest | djjeff
[15:07] <djjeff> ubuntu and gaming do not go hand in hand
[15:07] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: if you need stable, choose the one from repos
[15:08] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: and gaming on ubuntu gets pretty nice, check shadow of mordor on steam
[15:08] <djjeff> I can not even get steam to load properly
[15:09] <safariman> i game on my linux
[15:09] <safariman> it works fine
[15:09] <djjeff> the only steam for ubuntu is for i386
[15:09] <djjeff> I have not found a steam for amd64 which most people have
[15:09] <lotuspsychje> !discuss | djjeff lets move on
[15:10] <djjeff> yawn
[15:10] <auronandace> djjeff: you do realise you can run 32bit apps on 64bit?
[15:11] <djjeff> ya using 32 bit libs
[15:11] <djjeff> which suck
[15:11] <djjeff> bad enough dealing with pulseaudio
[15:11] <djjeff> and how crappy it is
[15:12] <djjeff> *nix does a fantastic job at being a server and basic desktop usage
[15:12] <djjeff> it was never made for gaming in mind
[15:12] <MonkeyDust> djjeff  we get the message
[15:12] <djjeff> which is sad because having to switch over to god forbid windows to play games is stupid
[15:13] <djjeff> when you start getting comfy in *nix switching over to windows brings tears to my eyes
[15:13] <lotuspsychje> !ot | djjeff
[15:14] <djjeff> you do a great job at using that bot maybe I can seek support from ubottu
[15:14] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: ubottu knows alot too
[15:14] <MonkeyDust> <3 ubottu
[15:14] <matthias_> hi jemand aus deutschland hier?
[15:14] <MonkeyDust> !de
[15:14] <SchrodingersScat> !ubottu | djjeff
[15:16] <MonkeyDust> and she knows a lot of languages
[15:17] <djjeff> when a bot knows more than a human I start to worry
[15:17] <djjeff> and when people start worshiping it
[15:18] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: this is an opensource, human bot ready to really help
[15:18] <djjeff> the movie terminator is right with skynet taking over earth
[15:19] <lotuspsychje> djjeff: true, but not here in the ubuntu community...and lets stop the offtopic here please
[15:19] <djjeff> humanity will be dead soon because people will start having sex with bots oh they already do in some countries
[15:19] <MonkeyDust> djjeff  do you prefer the Borg taking over earth?
[15:19] <djjeff> atleast the borg tell you their intentions where bots do not
[15:20] <djjeff> bots just take over silently
[15:20] <lotuspsychje> !life | djjeff
[15:20] <djjeff> lotuspsychje: you are just proving my point by using a bot to send that message
[15:21] <djjeff> maybe could code a bot to help when a program seg faults
[15:21] <TJ-> djjeff: and the reason for that is to make it clear its a channel policy, not a personal issue
[15:21] <TJ-> djjeff: please take non-support discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:32] <djjeff> oh wow they have a channel on freenode even at #vba-m I had to register to their forums to find it
[15:33] <SchrodingersScat> !alis | djjeff
[15:35] <Ragter> Hello there. I'm a first time user to ubuntu and i'm trying to figure out how to set up brtfs. I was wondering if there was anybody here who could provide assistance?
[15:35] <lotuspsychje> !btrfs | Ragter
[15:36] <Ragter> seen that guide it doesn't make sense to me though.
[15:37] <Jakey2> is there a way to upgrade the kernel from terminal in one command
[15:37] <cfhowlett> Ragter, best to use ext4 then
[15:37] <Ragter> I would like to set up a raid 0 setup that will allow me to add additional drives in the future.
[15:39] <Ragter> I was advised to use btrfs but the guide doesn't explain what i'm supposed to do very well. It jumps a bit and i'm not sure what i'm supposed to do once i've installed ubuntu
[15:40] <lotuspsychje> !kernel | Jakey2
[15:43] <anternat> hi..
[15:45] <anternat> i hve installed 14.04 server but i dont have int. access(connecting via usb adapter) wireless
[15:46] <anternat> i foollowed the guide here :  http://askubuntu.com/questions/464507/ubuntu-14-04-server-wifi-wpa2-personal
[15:46] <AfterDarkness> hello got a problem. Can't connect with eth don't know what's the problem
[15:47] <BluesKaj> AfterDarkness,  is this anew install?
[15:47] <AfterDarkness> no
[15:48] <AfterDarkness> it is 15.04 upgraded from 14.10
[15:48] <anternat> i cannot ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[15:48] <MonkeyDust> anternat  that's your router, connection to the internet
[15:49] <AfterDarkness> I can connect with wifi. but my eth somehow wont connect. it shows that it is trying to connect(I am talking about the icon) but the icon stay like that forever
[15:50] <anternat> MonkeyDust >> yes ,but i should have pinged it succesfully after changing the interfaces right?
[15:50] <anternat> how do i restart networking?
[15:50] <ubuntu423> hello
[15:50] <MonkeyDust> anternat  sudo service network restart
[15:50] <BluesKaj> AfterDarkness,  sudo systemctl resart network-manager
[15:50] <MonkeyDust> anternat  or networking
[15:50] <BluesKaj> restart
[15:51] <AfterDarkness> BluesKaj, nvm I got it. It was because I set my eth No.0 in my router to static ip
[15:51] <AfterDarkness> I just remembered I was using a different router I just reverted to my old one
[15:51] <Ragter> How do i mount a drive within ubuntu. sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt is not showing any response.
[15:51] <seoner> Make sure to choose an Ubuntu variant without Unity (standard Ubuntu running Unity desktop environment) if you care about privacy
[15:51] <seoner> true or false?
[15:51] <BluesKaj> AfterDarkness,  odd I have my eth0 set to a static IP in my router
[15:52] <BluesKaj> AfterDarkness,  ok
[15:52] <ubuntu423> I have a problem, so I have an asus rog GL551J laptop with an nvidia gtx 960m, this error occurs on both open source and proprietary drivers.  whenever I try to plug my computer in to an external monitor the screen goes black and kind of flashes and nothing shows up on tv, i have tried with multiple tvs and hdmi cords and it works when I use intel integrated graphics mode
[15:52] <auronandace> seoner: unity simply has something turned on by default, you can easily turn it off
[15:52] <BluesKaj> seoner,  false
[15:52] <seoner> BluesKaj: why?
[15:52] <auronandace> seoner: it just allows online search results
[15:52] <AfterDarkness> I am talking about the first port(i meant port 1 in my router). I guess it is different from one router to another?
[15:53] <seoner> auronandace: what is unity, and why should it be turned off?
[15:53] <auronandace> seoner: unity is the default user interface for ubuntu (it is based on gnome3)
[15:53] <ubuntu423> it is?
[15:53] <ubuntu423> wow i didn't know that
[15:53] <BluesKaj> there's no reason security wise to opt out of ant ubuntu flavors ...someone is making misleading statments about DEs
[15:53] <MonkeyDust> seoner  unity is your DE, it has been chosen a the default, but you can easily install something else
[15:54] <seoner> auronandace MonkeyDust: so why not using unity? what has it do with my privacy by using it?
[15:54] <MonkeyDust> seoner  and if you don't want online searches, simply disable them in the system settings
[15:54] <cfhowlett> !fud it is
[15:54] <auronandace> seoner: i already told you, the dash has a feature that allows online results by default
[15:55] <MonkeyDust> seoner  what are you asking about privacy?
[15:55] <ubuntu423> I have a problem, so I have an asus rog GL551J laptop with an nvidia gtx 960m, this error occurs on both open source and proprietary drivers.  whenever I try to plug my computer in to an external monitor the screen goes black and kind of flashes and nothing shows up on tv, i have tried with multiple tvs and hdmi cords and it works when I use intel integrated graphics mode I am running ubuntu gnome 15.04
[15:55] <seoner> MonkeyDust: read above
[15:56] <seoner> auronandace: so by have it enabled, it allows online results without my knowing or what?
[15:56] <MonkeyDust> seoner  simply disable online searches, i don't get why you're so worried... but better take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:56] <MonkeyDust> seoner  on #ubuntu-discuss
[15:56] <MonkeyDust> or*
[15:56] <auronandace> seoner: when you use the dash to search for stuff it shows online results there too, that is all it is for
[15:56] <BluesKaj> ubuntu423,  you have hybrid graphics then you should install nvidia-prime
[15:57] <node_> How do I produce a 'beep' sound from the terminal?
[15:57] <seoner> auronandace: should i worry abotu Unity if i am running debian?
[15:58] <seoner> about
[15:58] <auronandace> seoner: i don't think you understand what unity is
[15:58] <MonkeyDust> seoner  ask in the debian channel
[15:59] <seoner> auronandace: so it has nothing to do with my privacy?
[15:59] <MonkeyDust> seoner  no
[15:59] <seoner> somebody said
[15:59] <seoner> 17:53 < sauvin> The so-called spyware in Unity can be disabled.
[15:59] <seoner> spyware in Unity?
[16:00] <bekks> seoner: There is no spyware in Ubuntu.
[16:00] <seoner> bekks: so why are people saying that then?
[16:00] <bekks> seoner: Online search results can be disabled, which seems to be an unknown feature for Mr. Stallman.
[16:00] <MonkeyDust> spyware in linux? exciting! tell me all!
[16:00] <ubuntu423> ok
[16:00] <cfhowlett> !fud
[16:00] <bekks> seoner: People say so, cause they believe in FUD.
[16:00] <shamsky> paranoia..
[16:00] <ubuntu423> is nvidia prime the nvidia x server config application
[16:01] <ubuntu423> if so I already have it
[16:01] <gtozzi_> node_: use "beep" command
[16:01] <seoner> bekks: how do i disable it?
[16:01] <cfhowlett> seoner don't be so gullible
[16:01] <MonkeyDust> isnt canonical sponsored by NSA?
[16:01] <ubuntu423> ya I already have it
[16:01] <auronandace> seoner: there is a feature that is enabled by default that allows online search results to show in your dash, THAT IS ALL, there is no grand conspiracy to steal personal information and as has been said many times you can turn it off
[16:01] <Ryry> Hi
[16:02] <gtozzi_> seoner: well, "sending personal data without explicit consent" is spyware then :)
[16:02] <node_> gtozzi_: just installed beep. it doesn't work.
[16:03] <Ryry> I have a problem with Arp-poisoning, someone know something about it ?
[16:03] <gtozzi_> node_: are you trying to get a beep from the pc buzzer or from the speakers/headphones?
[16:03] <Seveas> Ryry: unplug rogue devices, slap the users who plugged them in
[16:03] <node_> gtozzi_: speaker
[16:04] <gtozzi_> node_: it should work then. I use it quite often.
[16:05] <gtozzi_> Ryry: be sure to do not forget the slap part
[16:05] <node_> gtozzi_: What other way can I play a sound?
[16:06] <gtozzi_> node_: Maybe your buzzer is broken/not connected? If you are planning to use the speakers instead you could use mpg123
[16:07] <node_> gtozzi_: What does the
[16:07] <node_> gtozzi_ 'aplay' command do?
[16:08] <gtozzi_> node_: I don't know it, but "man aplay" will tell you
[16:09] <node_> gtozzi_: aplay [file.wav] plays the file....
[16:13] <fasfeee> how can I tell apt-get to not install any x11/qt etc?
[16:13] <AfterDarkness> BluesKaj, sorry it wasn't working the up arrow and down arrow icon was showing up and i thought it worked but in fact there wasn't any connection
[16:13] <AfterDarkness> any suggestions? i tried to restart the network manager didn't work.
[16:14] <AfterDarkness> just can't seem to be able to connect to Auto Ethernet
[16:18] <BluesKaj> AfterDarkness,  open your /etc/network/interfaces and make sure you have these 2 lines
[16:18] <BluesKaj> auto lo
[16:18] <BluesKaj> iface lo inet loopback
[16:18] <AfterDarkness> got em
[16:19] <ubuntu423> I have a problem, so I have an asus rog GL551J laptop with an nvidia gtx 960m, this error occurs on both open source and proprietary drivers.  whenever I try to plug my computer in to an external monitor the screen goes black and kind of flashes and nothing shows up on tv, i have tried with multiple tvs and hdmi cords and it works when I use intel integrated graphics mode I am running ubuntu gnome 15.04
[16:21] <BluesKaj> AfterDarkness,  ifconfig to see if you ahve eth0 listed
[16:21] <AfterDarkness> yeah
[16:21] <AfterDarkness> i have it
[16:22] <loverdrive> Hi. I have an old 13.10 xubuntu system. I want to upgrade it to 14.04... if i do a "apt-get upgade" i found all server offline (i think the repository of 13.10 is nowaday down...)   Any procedure to upgrade safetly to 14.04 ?
[16:23] <cfhowlett> !eolupgrade | loverdrive
[16:24] <loverdrive> cfhowlett, thanks! :)
[16:25] <BluesKaj> loverdrive,  sudo do-release-upgrade
[16:25] <cfhowlett> happy2help!
[16:25] <cfhowlett> 13.10 BluesKaj
[16:26] <BluesKaj> yeah but he's upgrading to 14.04 which is still supported
[16:27] <cfhowlett> true but release-upgrade to 14.04 is no longer supported except fro 12.05=4
[16:28] <cfhowlett> 12.04.5
[16:28] <cfhowlett> and as 13.10 is eol ...
[16:29] <BluesKaj> ok thanks cfhowlett, doesn't make sense , however there's alot of that going around  with ubuntu thses days
[16:39] <[BNC]Alastor> Ubuntu rocks
[16:40] <loverdrive> BluesKaj, if i do a "do-release-upgrade, it tell me that there is no new release
[16:43] <BluesKaj> loverdrive,  best to install 14.04 clean from media , it's easy if you have separate root and /home partitions
[16:43] <geirha> loverdrive: did you change to old-realeases repo first?
[16:43] <loverdrive> geirha, yes
[16:43] <geirha> and sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade?
[16:44] <loverdrive> geirha, apt-get upgrade (and dist-upgrade), also after a apt-get update, tell me there is no upgrades
[16:44] <geirha> loverdrive: Odd. That should've worked :/
[16:44] <loverdrive> in old-release repo, i set saucy (13.10), right? or i must set 14.04?
[16:45] <geirha> no, saucy is correct
[16:45] <loverdrive> ok
[16:45] <loverdrive> mmm
[16:45] <loverdrive> and i set old-release, but i comment others repo
[16:45] <loverdrive> is right?
[16:46] <geirha> yes, old-realease should be the only enabled repo
[16:49] <loverdrive> also update-manager tell me system is up to date
[16:49] <loverdrive> :/
[16:52] <thelastlion23> start certification linux ...1st steps/recomendations??
[16:52] <geirha> loverdrive: what about adding -d to do-release-upgrade?
[16:53] <Bernzel> What must I do in order to create a new folder in usr/share/fonts? I dont have permission at the moment
[16:53] <geirha> sudo mkdir ...
[16:53]  * ace_me_away is now away - Reason : brb
[16:53] <geirha> Though you should probably do that in /usr/local/share/fonts instead
[16:54] <Bernzel> geirha, will for example Gimp recognize the fonts in that folder then?
[16:55] <loverdrive> geirha, i have set (in update-manager) to upgrade only to lts. Now i try to set to upgrade to every release, and it seems to perform upgrade, but i stop it immediately. I want to upgrade only to lts
[16:55] <geirha> Bernzel: I believe so, yes
[16:55] <loverdrive> if i set to upgrade to every release, it will perform a upgrade to nex (so 14.04) or to last release?
[16:55] <geirha> loverdrive: Well the next on, 14.04, is LTS
[16:55] <loverdrive> yes, i know 14.04 is lts
[16:56] <geirha> the only supported upgrade path from 13.10 is 14.04
[16:56] <Bernzel> geirha, Ok thanks!
[16:56] <geirha> LTS releases are the only ones that can skip versions
[16:57] <geirha> loverdrive: so remove that LTS setting, upgrade, then enable it again
[16:57] <loverdrive> ok, thank you geirha
[16:58] <Saulo-> !seen RogerDodger
[17:04] <Bernzel> geirha, hm don't seem Gimp is finding the font in that place..
[17:05] <Tammyton> Hey people. I'm just about to install ubuntu. Are there any good getting started guides available? I've never used linux before.
[17:05] <geirha> Bernzel: It's been a while since I've messed around with fonts, but there's a font cache you have to update somehow. I don't remember how though.
[17:06] <geirha> tonyyarusso: https://help.ubuntu.com/ is a good start
[17:06] <lazierxx> geirha: you can instal Microsoft fonts
[17:07] <Tammyton> thanks

[17:12] <Jakey2> is there a way to switch on your machine remotely
[17:12] <Jakey2> through the network
[17:13] <TJ-> Jakey2: Yes, it is called Wake On LAN
[17:13] <Jakey2> TJ-, thanks
[17:17] <Bernzel> geirha, are opentype fonts suppose to be .txt files?
[17:17] <mariano1> Hi all, I am not running the terminal in full screen. I only start the program in a small window, where a lot of text is shown every second, but I think that I am not the only one running such kind of programs. Is there a way to make the compiz process to use less CPU? The terminal only displays text, nothing else, it is not a 3D Game. Or what can I do with this problem? I have to run the JAVA application in Ubuntu
[17:18] <mariano1> I am using a JAVA program in Ubuntu which displays a lot of messages in the command line. A couple of second after starting the program, the messages are displayed and compiz'sCPU usage raises to more than 100%.
[17:18] <mariano1> s it normal? Should the compiz process use so much CPU? Or is the problem that my JAVA program displays to much messages in the terminal?
[17:20] <Infamous> Hello
[17:21] <daggerfall> Hi
[17:21] <geirha> Bernzel: no
[17:26] <scornflakes> hey does anyone have suggestions for a program that will monitor logs that will email me on certain keywords?
[17:26] <bipul> scornflakes, Use logstash.
[17:29] <scornflakes> bipul: thanks!
[17:30] <bipul> scornflakes, Do you know how to configure logstash to your /var/log directory?
[17:30] <scornflakes> bipul: i'll read the documentation
[17:30] <scornflakes> it's not the /var/log directory though
[17:31] <bipul> then?
[17:31] <Jakey2> whats the best way to put ubuntu server to sleep
[17:31] <Jakey2> from terminal
[17:31] <bipul> Syslog you wants to monitor? right?
[17:31] <Jakey2> and to wake
[17:33] <Jakey2> ?
[17:33] <TJ-> Jakey2: "pm-suspend"
[17:34] <Jakey2> TJ-, thanks
[17:34] <OutOfCheeseCake> Hi, I'm experiencing a strange wacom related problem on 14.04 amd64 (both unity and e20 desktop)
[17:35] <scornflakes> bipul: chat logs for my chan, those are in a different directory
[17:35] <OutOfCheeseCake> the tablet (bamboo fun) works fiuns, but after I open a terminal the area is restricted to exactly half the width of the screen
[17:35] <OutOfCheeseCake> could someone point me to how I can start troubleshooting this?
[17:35] <Jakey2> TJ-, so pmi action suspend and how to wake up?

[17:36] <F29> hi
[17:36] <OutOfCheeseCake> also the kind of terminal doesn't matter, happens with gnome-terminal, xterm and terminology
[17:37] <OutOfCheeseCake> after closing the terminal the problem persists
[17:39] <OutOfCheeseCake> btw "fiuns" = fine sry about that
[17:45] <Jakey2> can someone explain to me how to sleep and hibernate on ubuntu server
[17:47] <OutOfCheeseCake> @Jakey pm-suspend and pm-hibernate should do the trick
[17:47] <OutOfCheeseCake> easiest way to wake it up is via wake on lan
[17:52] <OutOfCheeseCake> @Jakey if you have no physical access to the server you need to configure waking up first (via wakeonlan or etherwake)
[17:52] <OutOfCheeseCake> important detail -.-
[17:55] <cuddylier> Why does the following iptables rule say invalid arguments?
[17:55] <cuddylier> iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 108 -i eth0 -m state --state NEW -m recent --update --seconds 10 --hitcount 30 -j DROP
[17:55] <bryan_> hello everybody
[17:56] <Koyaanis> is this a valid expression?  "chmod 777 /opt/lampp/htdocs/rcp/xml/*.*"
[17:56] <bryan_> i have a requirement
[17:57] <somsip> Koyaanis: do it as an ls to check what files will be amended and if it expands, it'll work in any command
[17:57] <SchrodingersScat> Koyaanis: sure, should work
[17:57] <bryan_> i want to send the gnome-panel process in background so that i cannot see those bottom/top panels..how can i achieve it?
[17:58] <bryan_> i do not want to autohide panels..
[17:59] <bryan_> it needs to be in background
[17:59] <EriC^^> Koyaanis: that will chmod the files that have a "." in them in the middle, it won't chmod all files nor hidden files
[18:02] <bryan_> can anybody help me in this regard?
[18:12] <degva> Hi guys. I have a problem with a joystick in ubuntu. Thing is that it's missing 2 axes: ABS_RX and ABS_RY. It worked in Ubuntu 14.04 - but now in Ubuntu 15.04 does not.
[18:12] <Jakey2> OutOfCheeseCake, thanks
[18:13] <degva> It have happened to me before - once I upgrade somethine, ubuntu is unable to find the other axes. In a fresh install, though, it shows all of them without problem
[18:19] <v_linus> boa tarde
[18:22] <Jakey2> whats the difference between putting to sleep and just swiching off the computer
[18:23] <MonkeyDust> Jakey2  putting to sleep saves your session, to ram or to disk (suspend or hibernate)
