[00:01] <Odd> Ah, okay. I'll try with one of those commands.
[00:05] <Odd> You're going to love this, lordcirth
[00:05] <Fione> So... is there a channel to ask tech-related question?
[00:05] <lordcirth> Odd, it works?
[00:05] <Odd> http://paste.md-5.net/musidocimu.sm
[00:05] <lordcirth> Fione, you'll need to be more specific
[00:06] <lordcirth> Odd, that's supposed to be a "1" - one, not l,L
[00:06] <Odd> Yeah, just noticed that...
[00:06] <lordcirth> Up-arrow and edit the command
[00:06] <Odd> Yup. Tried the Copy-Paste method you said, didn't work.
[00:07] <lordcirth> ok.  Never used X2Go.  Never used a graphical interface on a linux server, for that matter.
[00:07] <lordcirth> But I guess it makes sense for a game server.
[00:07] <Odd> Now it's ONLY wanting to install extra packages and new packages.
[00:07] <lordcirth> excellent
[00:07] <Odd> I run most through a webpage, and not on the server itself.
[00:08] <lordcirth> Sorry I didn't notice that guide earlier.
[00:08] <lordcirth> What webpage?
[00:08] <Fione> Well. I have made persistent liveUSB. Currently trying to configure SSH server. Then next step is to connect the USB to my laptop with broken screen, right? I am wondering about boot order, lordcirth.
[00:08] <lordcirth> The hosting company?
[00:08] <lordcirth> Fione, you mean how to change boot order to be USB?
[00:08] <Fione> Yep. constraint: no monitor.
[00:09] <lordcirth> That is an interesting question
[00:09] <Odd> It's okay. I had seen it myself quite a bit ago, and I believe someone linked it to us mid-talk too, but didn't think of it myself either...
[00:09] <lordcirth> Fione, is there a bootable hard drive in it?
[00:09] <Fione> In?
[00:09] <lordcirth> Fione, is the laptop's hard drive bootable?
[00:10] <Odd> Also, lordcirth, the servers main purpose is to take a beating from a four year old minecraft server or so I've got running. And I've got a webpage for the console for that.
[00:10] <Odd> Server itself, I simply do not touch
[00:11] <lordcirth> I see
[00:11] <Fione> ok. My fault, can you define bootable? I'm afraid I don't understand.
[00:11] <lordcirth> Fione, is there anything still on the hard drive that the BIOS might try to boot?
[00:11] <Fione> Yes
[00:11] <lordcirth> Ok.,
[00:12] <lordcirth> Do you intend to install to the hard drive, use it as storage for the liveUSB, or not use it at all?
[00:13] <lordcirth> Fione, ^
[00:13] <Fione> I am thinking, sorry.
[00:13] <lordcirth> np.
[00:14] <Odd> I don't think this is going to get anywhere, really: http://paste.md-5.net/johejijere.vhdl
[00:14] <Fione> Right now, the intention is to access my PC with my secondary PC. If possible, project the PC screen to my secondary PC.
[00:14] <lordcirth> Odd, I see
[00:15] <lordcirth> Fione, ok.  Well, the easy way that might work is to simply disconnect the hard drive.  Then, if USB is anywhere in the enabled boot order, it will work.  HOwever, it might not be.
[00:16] <artur> Fione: some routers have got this in pack looks like port :)
[00:16] <Fione> artur, are you talking to me?
[00:17] <artur> I rookie but trying to help
[00:17] <Fione> Ok.
[00:18] <Fione> So, the constraint is, my primary PC's monitor is broken.
[00:20] <lordcirth> Fione, can't you use your working monitor long enough to change it's BIOS settings to boot USB?
[00:21] <Fione> No... its screen is cracked.
[00:22] <lordcirth> Fione, lets clarify.  You have a laptop with a cracked screen, and you have a desktop with a working monitor?
[00:22] <Fione> Both are laptop.
[00:22] <lordcirth> Fione, oh.  normally PC is assumed to mean desktop.
[00:22] <khadgar> hi =)
[00:22] <lordcirth> khadgar, hi
[00:22] <Fione> Hi...
[00:23] <lordcirth> Fione, and you cant borrow a monitor or something?
[00:23] <Fione> Not at 5 in the morning.
[00:23] <khadgar> ages since i joined to an IRC and there was actual people having a conversation xD
[00:25] <lordcirth> Fione, well, it might be easiest to wait, if you think you might be able to :)  If not, you can try unplugging the hard drive to boot the USB, if you don't need the drive's files.
[00:25] <SchrodingersScat> khadgar: don't say it's a comeback, because we never went away
[00:26] <khadgar> i was the one who never cameback
[00:27] <Fione> to be honest, I have an appointment with my lecturer this morning, in which I need the data urgently. I already plan to buy a HDMI cable to connect to TV for today, but that is after the appointment.
[00:28] <lordcirth> Fione, have you considered either buying a usb-to-sata adapter, or putting the hard drive in your other laptop?
[00:28] <SchrodingersScat> doing it blind would be very difficult, if you don't have a hdd enclosure you can put the disk in then idk if you'd be able to log in without monitor enough to setup openssh
[00:29] <SchrodingersScat> or yeah, swap out laptop drives
[00:29] -huxley:#ubuntu- #WRONGPLANET SAYS THAT WITH UBUNTU YOU LOSE!                              #WRONGPLANET #WR
[00:29] <Fione> The first will be considered. The second, my secondary laptop is not really in good condition.
[00:31] <khadgar> =)
[00:31] -hartell:#ubuntu- #WRONGPLANET SAYS THAT WITH UBUNTU YOU LOSE!     #WRONGPLANET #WRONGPLANET #WRONG
[00:31] -naveed:#ubuntu- #WRONGPLANET SAYS THAT WITH UBUNTU YOU LOSE!     #WRONGPLANET #WRONGPLANET #WRONG
[00:31] -naveed:#ubuntu- #WRONGPLANET SAYS THAT WITH UBUNTU YOU LOSE!     #WRONGPLANET #WRONGPLANET #WRONG
[00:31] <SchrodingersScat> Fione: well, if you need the data immediately then slapping in the drive and transferring it off that crazy thing sounds like a good plan.  Otherwise you can do it just enough to setup openssh-server and a vnc of your choice.
[00:32] <lordcirth> I own a USB-to-SATA adapter, it's very useful in general for me.  But that's me.
[00:32] -mathian:#ubuntu- #WRONGPLANET SAYS THAT WITH UBUNTU YOU LOSE!     #WRONGPLANET #WRONGPLANET #WRONG
[00:32] <lordcirth> Such a strange channel to spam for... it should be quite friendly.
[00:32] <SchrodingersScat> lordcirth: my landlord accidentally destroyed the platters of an external of mine, but I was able to salvage the innards so now I have a nice external bay instead :D
[00:33] <khadgar> im having a dilema...
[00:33] <Fione> Well, my secondary laptop is often overheating. It is not reliable with constant power off... so, I don't really want to consider bringing it to appointment.
[00:33] <mattgyver> Hey guys so I just upgraded from 15.04 to 16.04 and suspend seems to work though the graphics are garbled when it resumes (mostly black+white overlay) anyone else having this issue?
[00:34] <lordcirth> Fione, well, a laptop with a broken screen is hardly viable to bring either.
[00:34] <SchrodingersScat> !ask | khadgar
[00:34] <khadgar> weird bot...
[00:34] <mattgyver> I've read I should consider upgrading the kernel to a mainline kernel so I tried all the wily builds up to 4.6-rc7 with no change - is it safe to try a yakkety kernel from mainline?
[00:34] <Fione> Yep. If anything, right now I just bring thumb drive.]
[00:35] <khadgar> !ask
[00:35] <lordcirth> Fione, that seems like your best option, assuming you can't buy a working laptop.
[00:37] <SchrodingersScat> khadgar: if it's ubuntu related feel free to ask, if it's more of a broader question, maybe try #ubuntu-offtopic (need to be registered)
[00:44] <Fione> So, continuing from before.
[00:44] <Fione> I got persistent live usb.

[01:46] <steanART> hi @ all :)
[01:48] <Smn> hello guys, I've been having a problem with me wifi card that I haven't experience in windows, after about 2-3 dozens of hours of up time the computer simply disconnects from wifi and refuses to connect to anything until it is rebooted, this problem didn't happen in windows and I don't know if there's a good way to diagnose the problem
[01:51] <Smn> the card is listed as ralink rt2561/rt61 and I know that it uses the module rt61pci
[01:54] <steanART> can someone help me out with a vpn problem that i have ? every time i try to connect to my companys vpn, it tells me that the vpn service has ended. does someone know how to fix this ?
[01:56] <zykotick9> Smn: i really do wish you all the best.  i have NOTHIN' to suggest.  not all wireless is supported the same on gnu/linux :(  i see on h-node.org you require a non-free driver :(  https://h-node.org/wifi/view/en/271/RaLink-RT2561-RT61-802-11g-PCI  but BEST of luck, hope you find a solution.
[01:57] <Smn> thank you, i've been trying to find info on drivers but it seems noone has touched this thing in a couple of years so...
[02:02] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> back
[02:03] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> are lubuntu updates the same as ubuntu?
[02:03] <siva_machina> For the most part they should be
[02:03] <lordcirth> barring LXDE-specific things
[02:03] <siva_machina> except for the Llxde specific ones
[02:03] <siva_machina> lxde
[02:03] <zykotick9> the repo is the same... what packages have updates depends on what you have installed...
[02:05] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> I have an update window that says it has ubuntu 16.4 updates
[02:06] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> it doesn't say lubuntu
[02:06] <siva_machina> It most likely wouldn't
[02:06] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> oh
[02:06] <siva_machina> it's useing the ubuntu-updater
[02:06] <siva_machina> which should be worded like that regardless of flavor
[02:07] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> ah
[02:09] <lordcirth> Lubuntu is mostly just Ubuntu with LXDE installed instead of gnome.
[02:09] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> ah
[02:09] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> it runs awesomely
[02:10] <siva_machina> lordcirth, You mean Unity
[02:10] <lordcirth> siva_machina, yes but Unity runs on top of Gnome3.
[02:10] <lordcirth> Not that that's very visible.

[02:27] <SleePy> Lovely.  System went into read only mode, rebooted, got dropped into busybox.  mdadm is saying none of my drives are raids when I try to assemble, but shows the raids when I examine.  :\
[02:32] <lordcirth> SleePy, https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_Recovery
[02:37] <SleePy> Yea, used that a few times.    I can mount the system, but the partition with /boot will not mount and says invalid argument.  I'm working on getting me a usb drive.  Might have to reinstall /boot and grub

[03:45] <Demkantor_> Hi, ran i to a problem when my motherboard crashed
[03:46] <Demkantor_> Hopefully someone here can help
[03:46] <Demkantor_> I replaced pc with new Mobo and CPU, everything is good now... Sorta
[03:47] <Demkantor_> I can boot to Ubuntu fine, but can not boot to Windows 7, just freezes
[03:47] <Ben64> ...that's not an Ubuntu issue
[03:47] <Demkantor_> So grub is working, but it can't find windows
[03:48] <OerHeks> different hardwareprofile..windows does check that
[03:48] <Demkantor_> I know it isn't a Ubuntu issue, but I'm looking for some help, hopefully someone here has some expertise in fixing similar issue
[03:49] <Demkantor_> I figure i would at least need new drivers, i have my product key, but it doesn't even try to get me into Windows bootmanager
[03:49] <Ben64> try ##windows
[03:49] <Demkantor_> Ben64, not sure what ##windows is
[03:50] <Rochvellon> a chan like #ubuntu
[03:50] <OerHeks> Select Windows from the Grub menu. Once your selection is made, repeatedly hit F8 until a menu appears.
[03:50] <OerHeks> From here, you will be able to choose which mode to start Windows in, such as Safe Mode or Command Prompt.
[03:50] <Demkantor_> OK, so i may have better luck in Windows IRC then?
[03:51] <Demkantor_> Thanks oerheks, will try now
[03:51] <OerHeks> yes, ##windows .. but i am not sure you can fix such hardwarechanges
[03:53] <energizer> What is ubuntu keyring doing for me?
[03:54] <energizer> It's always asking me for a password, but I'm not sure what service it provides
[03:55] <kromwell> How can I find out if an IP address is dynamic or static in linux?
[03:55] <kromwell> whois ?
[03:56] <OerHeks> keyring stores passwords and keys, and is protected by one.
[03:56] <energizer> OerHeks: which passwords?
[03:56] <OerHeks> mail, websites logins and such
[03:56] <OerHeks> ssh keys, or other tokens
[03:57] <energizer> OerHeks: i use lastpass, can i turn this off?
[03:58] <energizer> or is that a bad idea
[03:59] <OerHeks> i think not, it contains your login pass too
[04:02] <thekrynn_> has anyone successfully used rsyslogd with nginx?
[04:05] <Shawn196|Lubuntu> :/
[04:05] <Demkantor_> Thanks @OerHeks - this let me into Windows, installing drivers now, i should be good to go
[04:07] <energizer> I have a couple monitors at different resolutions. In 'Displays', there is an option called 'Scale all window contents to match': 'Display with largest controls
[04:07] <energizer> Display with smallest controls
[04:08] <energizer> But I want 'all window contents' to be scaled to match the display they are on, of course, not some other scaling
[04:08] <energizer> Is that possible?
[04:21] <daemon55> i need help i got no sound!
[04:21] <energizer> my first line of defense:

[04:22] <energizer> ya
[04:23] <daemon55> i dont got speakers
[04:23] <energizer> that explains that!

[04:24] <daemon55> then today it stopped working
[04:25] <energizer> daemon55: do the dumb stuff first: try it again, test, reboot, test,
[04:26] <daemon55> i just dont think its going to work
[04:26] <daemon55> i would upgrade to 14.04 but last time i did it just kept freezing
[04:26] <daemon55> i had to reinstall ubuntu to this version
[04:28] <EriC^^> daemon55: which command fixed it earlier?
[04:28] <daemon55> that whole block of code on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure
[04:29] <EriC^^> the killall rm etc?
[04:29] <daemon55> sudo apt-get upda...............
[04:29] <EriC^^> ok does the guest account have sound?
[04:30] <daemon55> i dont think so
[04:30] <EriC^^> daemon55: open a terminal and type "id pulse"
[04:30] <EriC^^> see if it says audio to the right
[04:31] <daemon55> yup
[04:31] <EriC^^> ok, give the guest account a quick shot, no need to log out
[04:32] <daemon55> i just dont think so
[04:32] <daemon55> its not going work
[04:32] <EriC^^> it's easy to try it
[04:33] <daemon55> but why bother oi tried everything reinstall alsa base/asla utils nothing nada
[04:33] <EriC^^> give it a shot, it could be a user config issue
[04:35] <daemon55> eric^^:nope didnt work
[04:36] <EriC^^> ok, try running alsamixer in the terminal and check nothing is muted
[04:36] <EriC^^> daemon55: which kernel are you running? maybe a newer kernel might work or an older one
[04:36] <EriC^^> type uname -r
[04:37] <daemon55> 3.2.0-109-generic-pae
[04:39] <EriC^^> ok, type ls /boot/linux*
[04:40] <daemon55> ls: cannot access /boot/linux*: No such file or directory

[04:45] <EriC^^> daemon55: try rebooting and hold shift to get grub, then go to advanced > choose the 3.0.0-32 kernel
[04:47] <zer0under> Can i ask something? I have a some issue with the ubuntu network connection. I can do the ping www.google.com, it was return the ping output, but when i ping www.facebook.com, www.yahoo.com .there are no response. Why?
[04:50] <zykotick9> zer0under: my "guess" would be they drop ping requests...
[04:50] <zer0under> So it would be a firewall or iptables problem? Trying to clear the iptables rules but still cannot be done
[04:51] <zykotick9> zer0under: nope.  i can ping facebook.com.
[04:51] <daemon55> eric^^: nope should i just reinstall pulse audio and alsa?
[04:52] <daemon55> i cant even test the sound
[04:52] <EriC^^> daemon55: why not
[04:52] <EriC^^> daemon55: does aplay -l show the devices?
[04:52] <daemon55> bo i mean i literally cant
[04:52] <zer0under> zhkotick9: So how to solve this issue? already try ping on others vps container, working, just this one, can't do the ping on certain host
[04:52] <daemon55> no
[04:53] <daemon55> i just click on it and nothing
[04:53] <daemon55> eric^^ what version on buntu are you on?
[04:53] <EriC^^> aplay -l doesn't show it?
[04:53] <EriC^^> in the terminal
[04:54] <EriC^^> 16.04
[04:54] <daemon55> and no freezing nothing!
[04:54] <EriC^^> no it's been good
[04:54] <EriC^^> which are you running?
[04:54] <daemon55> 12.04
[04:55] <EriC^^> ok, it's supported til 2017
[04:55] <daemon55> i had 15.04 but it kept freezing
[04:55] <daemon55> 16.04
[04:55] <daemon55> i tried everything therse people but on thegrub file

[04:56] <daemon55> ill try howdo i do that
[04:56] <daemon55> asus x553m
[04:56] <daemon55> i triedask ubuntu but no luck
[04:56] <EriC^^> !mainline
[04:57] <EriC^^> newer kernel might fix the problem according to some threads about freezing
[04:58] <daemon55> i tried that already still it freezed up my pc
[04:58] <EriC^^> also /var/log/syslog might show some info about it
[04:58] <EriC^^> oh
[04:58] <daemon55> yep
[04:59] <daemon55> so how do i update the kernel
[05:00] <EriC^^> the mainline link above, you tried that already you said though?
[05:01] <daemon55> yes on ubuntu 26.04
[05:01] <daemon55> 16.04
[05:01] <daemon55> nothing seems to work on that version its practically helpless
[05:02] <EriC^^> daemon55: can you make a live usb?
[05:02] <daemon55> nop usb dont seem to help
[05:02] <daemon55> i had to use a bootable cd
[05:04] <EriC^^> try to make a 10g partition and install 16.04 there and see the logs maybe it helps
[05:04] <daemon55> like i said
[05:04] <daemon55> i would but that version is buggy
[05:04] <EriC^^> in about 6months 12.04 will be unsupported so you might as well try to get it working from now
[05:04] <EriC^^> did you try 14.04?
[05:05] <daemon55> yes same as 16.04
[05:05] <daemon55> but yo could guide me through it
[05:06] <daemon55> see another method
[05:06] <EriC^^> try making a small partition to test it right now that way you still have a booting pc in the meantime
[05:06] <EriC^^> sounds good?
[05:07] <daemon55> you mean like virtualbox?
[05:07] <EriC^^> no, an actual install on the pc but in a separate partition
[05:08] <daemon55> i cant do that i dont got blank cds
[05:08] <EriC^^> shrink 10g from the ubuntu partition and install 16.04 there
[05:08] <EriC^^> do you still have the 16.04 cd?
[05:08] <daemon55> i had to use a 10.04 lts install to get to version 12.04
[05:09] <daemon55> 10.10 >11.04>11.10 to 12.04
[05:11] <EriC^^> you need to get a cd somehow
[05:12] <EriC^^> or a usb and use a cd that will let the pc boot usb's
[05:12] <owner_> i am here
[05:12] <daemon55> but i tried usbs they dont seem to work
[05:12] <bpcpi> how to install google chrome from google repository
[05:13] <EriC^^> there's a cd that lets you boot usb's i think it's called plop
[05:13] <daemon55> i even tried fat32 and still nothing
[05:13] <EriC^^> https://www.plop.at/en/bootmanagers.html
[05:14] <EriC^^> daemon55: type ls /sys/firmware/efi in a terminal
[05:14] <daemon55> it says no such file or directory
[05:15] <DrJJ> ping yahoo.com
[05:16] <EriC^^> daemon55: ok
[05:16] <EriC^^> try making a plop cd and a 14.06/16.04 usb
[05:17] <daemon55> i cant i dont have a cd
[05:18] <EriC^^> how old is the pc?
[05:18] <daemon55> just almost a year i think
[05:18] <EriC^^> it should be able to boot usb's make sure it's first in the boot order
[05:19] <daemon55> its not that
[05:19] <EriC^^> also maybe install ubuntu in uefi mode
[05:19] <daemon55> it shows as ief but it just doesnt start when i click on it
[05:22] <EriC^^> is secureboot disabled?
[05:22] <daemon55> i dont know
[05:22] <daemon55> i have to check
[05:22] <EriC^^> ok
[05:22] <daemon55> do you want me to check?
[05:23] <EriC^^> yeah
[05:28] <daemon55> eric^^: yep its disabled
[05:28] <daemon55> im completely screwed
[05:29] <EriC^^> daemon55: ok
[05:29] <EriC^^> do you have a ubuntu iso and a usb?
[05:29] <daemon55> not a ubuntu iso but usb yes
[05:29] <EriC^^> ok download 16.04
[05:30] <daemon55> again why its going to freeze again
[05:30] <daemon55> after 2 plus hours it freezes
[05:30] <EriC^^> try to troubleshoot it, check the logs, etc
[05:31] <EriC^^> in 6months 12.04 won't be supported anymore so you'll have to upgrade anyways to keep stuff up to date
[05:31] <daemon55> darn
[05:33] <daemon55> do you think its because i installed the stack for my graphics card it keeps freezing
[05:33] <EriC^^> it could be
[05:38] <EriC^^> daemon55: the logs might say what's going on
[05:38] <daemon55> i forgot what stack it was
[05:38] <daemon55> do you know what stack its called
[05:38] <daemon55> is in the ubuntu wiki
[05:38] <daemon55> but i forgot where
[05:39] <daemon55> i cant fid it
[05:39] <EriC^^> hardware enablement stack?
[05:39] <EriC^^> you mean like nouveau fglrx etc?
[05:42] <daemon55> yes
[05:42] <daemon55> i instlled hwe and after that after 2 hours it freezes
[05:43] <daemon55> well after the ubuntu 14.04 install after 2 plus hours
[05:43] <EriC^^> maybe that's why
[05:43] <daemon55> so if you were me what would you do different
[05:48] <EriC^^> daemon55: try to install 16.04 and see the logs and stuff
[05:48] <daemon55> no but what driversdo i use
[05:49] <EriC^^> the ones that come with 16.04
[05:49] <daemon55> hwe was the only wayi could install 16.04
[05:52] <EriC^^> as far as i know, the hwe is for installing newer kernels and xorg on older lts
[05:53] <EriC^^> you have a 64bit cpu?
[05:53] <daemon55> yes
[05:53] <daemon55> but 32 bit ubuntu
[05:55] <EriC^^> why?
[05:55] <daemon55> for it could of been lightweight
[05:56] <daemon55> i thought if i chose 32 it would work faster
[05:56] <EriC^^> no it's the same thing i think
[05:56] <EriC^^> install 64bit ubuntu
[05:56] <daemon55> oh nevermind then
[05:57] <kang00> Any python user?
[05:57] <daemon55> its to bad canaicale doesnt send free cd s anymore
[05:59] <EriC^^> kang00: #python

[07:39] <VectorX> installing ubuntu 16.04.01 Server in virtualbox 5.1.4 how can i get the CLI to show fullscreen at 1920x1080 ?
[07:40] <morf> you mean console resolution in guest os?
[07:41] <VectorX> yes
[07:41] <VectorX> there is no gui
[07:41] <VectorX> i tried all sorts of stuff with grub but was not able to get it to work
[07:42] <VectorX> one issue is that resolution doesnt show up in hwinfo framebuffer, if i try something smaller, when it comes to the login it reverts back to 640
[07:44] <VectorX> host is Win7, im trying to record some CLI tutorials for ubuntu using vbox video recording capability
[07:47] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> okay, got lubuntu running

[07:51] <morf> VectorX: hm dunno can't get it working either
[07:51] <VectorX> :)
[07:52] <VectorX> i spent half the day yesterday with this, i got somewhere, i think i can get the final screen to have the res aswell, do you know how i can update the box to get the resolution to show up in the hwinfo
[07:52] <VectorX> vesafb
[07:55] <VectorX> maybe if i install desktop use the grub customizer and see what it does, hopfully it will have all the options needed
[07:56] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> Dreaman, well I installed it on here since I installed it on my sony vaio pcg-5g3l
[07:56] <genbu> hello. Is there a way to increase the splashscreen time?
[08:03] <qwebirc28207> Nigger
[08:03] <qwebirc28207> Ubuntu for niggers
[08:04] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> again
[08:04] <Dreaman> windows for lames :)
[08:04] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> how many nights is he gonna do that?
[08:04] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> Dreaman, on my gaming laptop, I run windows
[08:05] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> only windows 7
[08:05] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> since thats the last version I trust
[08:05] <Dreaman> Shawn196|i3-8GB i use dual boot win 10 ubuntu 16.04 lts 64 bit
[08:05] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> ah
[08:05] <Dreaman> and new kernel 4.7.2 stable
[08:05] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> my windows 7 is 64-bit too
[08:06] <Dreaman> win 10 to meny bugs
[08:07] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> wow... installing this helped achieve nothing for running jars
[08:07] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> https://java.com/en/download/help/linux_install.xml#Java%20for%20Linux%20Platforms
[08:07] <VectorX> if i install ubuntu server/console on a machine, is there a way to video record whats being done in the console ?
[08:09] <EriC^^> VectorX: there's a program called script
[08:09] <EriC^^> script /path/to/log , then exit to save
[08:10] <VectorX> im trying to make some video tutorials
[08:10] <EriC^^> or script -f /path/to/log for real-time
[08:10] <daemon55> eric^^ i did what you told me got a working usb
[08:10] <EriC^^> VectorX: can you install a gui? there are some good desktop recording software
[08:11] <EriC^^> daemon55: ok, try to get the usb to boot
[08:11] <EriC^^> try pressing esc when the pc boots and choose uefi usb
[08:11] <daemon55> eric^^ i did im on ubuntu 16.04
[08:11] <daemon55> its faster than ever
[08:11] <EriC^^> daemon55: type ls /sys/firmware/efi
[08:11] <EriC^^> indeed
[08:11] <VectorX> EriC^^ i was trying to keep things in the same environment as what i am demonstrating, so without a gui
[08:11] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> is openjdk9 better than 8?
[08:12] <VectorX> Shawn196|i3-8GB i think it is still in testing
[08:12] <VectorX> so there could be bugs
[08:12] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> well, 8 wont run techniclauncher :(
[08:12] <daemon55> eric^^: still the same output ls: cannot access '/sys/firmware/efi': No such file or directory
[08:13] <EriC^^> daemon55: ok, are you dual booting with another os?
[08:13] <daemon55> no im bot dual booting
[08:13] <daemon55> i had to use unetbootin
[08:13] <daemon55> it worked flawlessly
[08:13] <daemon55> no problems so far
[08:13] <ducasse> VectorX: there's a package called ttyrec, could that help?
[08:14] <VectorX> ducasse i will take a look
[08:15] <EriC^^> daemon55: are you able to enable uefi in the bios and boot ubuntu?
[08:15] <EriC^^> 16.04
[08:15] <daemon55> i used unetbootin it was my only hope
[08:15] <daemon55> so yeah 16.04
[08:16] <EriC^^> try going to the bios and enabling uefi and booting the usb in uefi mode
[08:16] <VectorX> Shawn196|i3-8GB go with it, i was installing it, and on the oracle site it said its still in development and there maybe bugs, so you can install and try it out
[08:16] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> ah
[08:16] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> it might work
[08:17] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> then again, it might take out xorg core
[08:17] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> if I disconnect, then it wiped out xorg core
[08:17] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> I will test it
[08:17] <Dreaman> Shawn196|i3-8GB  inastall resticted extras lubuntu
[08:17] <daemon55> eric^^ thats another restart
[08:18] <daemon55> werent you talking about a log file earlier on?
[08:18] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> dreaman type that how?
[08:18] <EriC^^> yeah, if it hangs later
[08:18] <daemon55> so unetbootin has a uefi option?
[08:19] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> are there intel graphic drivers for linux?
[08:19] <netvixtra> yes
[08:19] <EriC^^> daemon55: no, in the bios under boot options there should be a uefi option or csm legacy, enable uefi and disable csm legacy
[08:19] <Dreaman> Shawn196|i3-8GB  sudo apt-get install lubuntu-restricted-extras
[08:19] <Dreaman> terminal
[08:20] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> thank you
[08:20] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> I also did an apt search, you beat me to it xD
[08:21] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> ack
[08:21] <daemon55> eric^^ im not sure it has that
[08:21] <Dreaman> sudo su pass and this comand y enter
[08:21] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> Configuring ttf-mscorefonts-installer wont let me hit okay
[08:22] <EriC^^> daemon55: it should, give it a shot if it doesn't come back and you can install in legacy mode
[08:22] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> nvm I had to tab it
[08:22] <daemon55> didnt you check this https://www.asus.com/us/support/FAQ/1008277
[08:23] <daemon55> im not sure it has that
[08:24] <EriC^^> daemon55: at the bottom try to make it Launch csm disabled as in the picture
[08:24] <EriC^^> also disable fastboot if it's on
[08:28] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> hopefully one of these drivers support my studio 1558's integrated Intel GMA 4500M HD graphics chip
[08:28] <blackdr4g0n-5128> !list
[08:29] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> well, brb

[08:30] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> oh intel's tool is awesome
[08:30] <daemon55> it just stays stuck to the bios if i disableit
[08:30] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> it supports my hardware :D
[08:30] <EriC^^> daemon55: you dont get a black and white grub screen?

[08:43] <beaky> ah
[08:43] <EriC^^> daemon55: did it boot?
[08:43] <beaky> do i have to setup bridged networking
[08:43] <beaky> how do i do that
[08:43] <daemon55> eric^^ it can whats the next step
[08:44] <EriC^^> daemon55: type sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[08:44] <EriC^^> daemon55: then sudo parted -l | pastebinit and paste the link it gives you here
[08:45] <beaky> can i bridge my wifi to my vm
[08:47] <YankDownUnder> beaky: The network that the host has can be utilised by the "guest". Whether it be NAT or bridged - doesn't matter.
[08:48] <daemon55> eric^^ im going to take a break
[08:48] <daemon55> ill see you tomorrow
[08:49] <EriC^^> daemon55: ok

[09:26] <yaboo> can not believe ubuntu 16.04 is faulty
[09:26] <laszlowaty> kazam is great :)
[09:26] <bazhang> Shawn196|i3-8GB, kazam
[09:26] <bazhang> file some bugs then yaboo

[09:26] <yaboo> seems to after I work out why its doing it
[09:26] <dmn___> Hi folks, I got troubles with LMMS install/unistall in ubuntu studio
[09:26] <dmn___> I messed up with MIDI settings and now the app is stuck
[09:27] <yaboo> seems people are posting but there are no resolutions I can see
[09:27] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> alt+printscreen does not take a screeny
[09:27] <dmn___> the version is 1.1.3
[09:27] <EriC^^> dmn___: keep in mind there's also #ubuntu-studio in case nobody here knows how to solve it
[09:27] <dmn___> I tried to apt-get update/upgrade to version 1.1.9 but nothing  happens
[09:27] <bazhang> !info lmms
[09:27] <dmn___> is still installing the 1.1.3
[09:27] <dmn___> somebody could help me out?
[09:28] <EriC^^> dmn___: 1.1.3 is the latest according to above
[09:28] <craptalk> anyone tried yakkety yakk release?
[09:28] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> bazhang, is there one that I could use a macro to trigger?
[09:28] <EriC^^> if you absolutely need it you could use maybe a ppa to install it or manually install it from source or a .deb file
[09:29] <dmn___> anyway it seems to retreive a package internal in the distro
[09:29] <dmn___> 'cause is installing when is offline too
[09:29] <EriC^^> dmn___: yeah it saves the already downloaded packages on disk in /var
[09:29] <bazhang> craptalk, thats in #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[09:29] <dmn___> retreiving the previous setting
[09:30] <EriC^^> dmn___: try from the guest account
[09:30] <dmn___> let's see
[09:30] <EriC^^> you could delete the user config lmms dir and it would reset it but you'd lost all the settings you had for your user

[09:31] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> kazam is usable
[09:31] <dmn___> it works from the guest
[09:32] <dmn___> but I need on my account
[09:32] <dmn___>  where I can find it?
[09:32] <EriC^^> dmn___: try find ~ -type d -iname '*lmms*'
[09:35] <dmn___> it gives me a path
[09:35] <EriC^^> ok, try mv /path /path.old
[09:35] <dmn___> home/dmn/lmms/
[09:35] <dmn___> but there's no .cfg file in there
[09:37] <EriC^^> try anyways
[09:37] <cerberiy> sa
[09:38] <dmn___> still stuck
[09:39] <EriC^^> dmn___: try starting it from the terminal and look for any errors
[09:40] <Shawn196|i3-8GB> well, minecraft vanilla runs well once again, on openjdk8

[10:58] <cripcate> you meant cripcate Eric? :D
[10:58] <cripcate> okay ill try
[10:59] <EriC^^> cripcate: yeah, craptalk nevermind :)

[11:01] <cripcate> and then?
[11:01] <Ben64> Obadiah1: program&exit

[11:08] <riqj> hello everyone, I deleted the OS on my disk, and with it grub was deleted, too, because it was connected to this OS. now I am on a livecd, and I found this solution: http://askubuntu.com/questions/126541/how-to-manually-install-boot-loader ..does it recover grub in my case?
[11:08] <rexwin_> i am getting an error system has experienced a problem whenever I click on login button. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/59tmxbc2km4vxdm/AAD94Jxz9WmDYgGJYYodLtHGa?dl=0
[11:09] <riqj> ok I already applied it..hope it works
[11:09] <riqj> it started by saying 'installing..' looks good
[11:10] <riqj> already finished. so rebooting
[11:12] <cripcate> Eric^^, you there? im back.
[11:13] <cripcate> was it osi="Windows 2015" to add? I did this.
[11:14] <cripcate> but now when i suspend and open the lid again, the power led comes back up but the screen stays black.
[11:17] <tomreyn> cripcate: acpi_osi="Windows 2015"
[11:17] <tomreyn> not just 'osi=...'
[11:18] <cripcate> ah okay
[11:18] <cripcate> brb then ^

[11:22] <gb_mks> hi :)

[11:23] <raspi> hella
[11:23] <raspi> hello
[11:25] <laszlowaty>  guys, can you recommend pdf editor?
[11:29] <cripcate> acpi osi = "Windows 2015" did'nt work :(
[11:29] <cripcate> when i restarted i looked again and the thing i added was one, too. Dunno what that means
[11:29] <cripcate> gone'
[11:29] <EriC^^> cripcate: which laptop are uyou using?
[11:30] <EriC^^> yeah, it's a one time option
[11:30] <EriC^^> cripcate: try a newer kernel, worked for me on my hp
[11:30] <EriC^^> !mainline
[11:31] <cripcate> can i change kernel without side effects? never done htat and afraid to screw up
[11:31] <EriC^^> yeah ubuntu updates it for you all the time
[11:32] <EriC^^> it's just a package
[11:33] <drizbit> hello
[11:34] <cripcate> which kernel would you recommend?
[11:34] <EriC^^> 4.6+
[11:34] <cripcate> im running xenial xerus
[11:34] <cripcate> okay
[11:34] <EriC^^> im using 4.6rc6 with no issues
[11:35] <Dreaman> EriC^^ i use 4.7.2
[11:35] <drizbit> 4.6.2 is ok for me
[11:35] <drizbit> hows 4.7+
[11:35] <gb_mks> anyone know a good contact manager (address book) that can sync with owncloud?
[11:35] <Dreaman> nikolov@ubuntu-ivan:~$ inxi -F
[11:35] <Dreaman> System:    Host: ubuntu-ivan Kernel: 4.7.2-040702-generic x86_64 (64 bit)

[11:35] <Dreaman> good for me
[11:35] <cripcate> okay, I'm a real noob when it comes to stuff like this so just say if I become annoying. It says to uninstall out of the tree proprietary modules first
[11:36] <cripcate> what does that mean?
[11:36] <Stalkr_> Hello, I am trying to setup 16.04 server on my machine and I'm not sure how exactly I should set up my machine. I'm currently partitioning my disks, can choose LVM and encrypted LVM. I tried encrypted but during boot I get "stuck" with the passphrase but how do I get past that if I don't have a keyboard (since it should just be a server)? I can't SSH until I've done that
[11:37] <EriC^^> cripcate: did you download the .deb files? you need the linux-image and headers and linux-image-extra
[11:42] <Nickem> Hey, I've got a quick question.
[11:42] <drizbit> shoot
[11:42] <Nickem> I've been trying to set up a PPTP VPN through the network manager; however, I'm not able to type in the password for authentication.
[11:43] <Nickem> It won't let me select the password field at all
[11:43] <drizbit> is your mouse plugged in?
[11:43] <Nickem> Yes?
[11:43] <ankur> HI
[11:43] <motaka2> can anyone help me run maven , it gives very strange errors
[11:44] <ankur> HELO
[11:44] <gb_mks> 0 replies   :(
[11:45] <Nickem> Is there a way to setup a PPTP VPN through terminal?
[11:46] <cripcate> okay what does it mean to uninstall proprietary modules before updating kernel? how can i find out if i have one of those modules installed?
[11:46] <EriC^^> cripcate: can you pastebin the exact error?
[11:46] <EriC^^> and command you're using, etc.
[11:46] <cripcate> what you mean?
[11:47] <EriC^^> copy and paste the command and the error it's giving
[11:48] <EriC^^> do you have pastebinit installed? sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[11:48] <EriC^^> then do <command you're trying> | pastebinit
[11:48] <cripcate> okay, i will install it. but im not using a command yet im prepping for updating the kernel
[11:49] <cripcate> and dunno what it means to uninstall proprietary modules
[11:49] <EriC^^> it's not important i think
[11:49] <Ben64> you shouldn't be installing a kernel yourself unless you have a really good reason to do it
[11:50] <cripcate> alright so i pack the kernel .deb packages into a folder and run sudo dpkg -i *.deb?
[11:50] <EriC^^> download the 4.6 kernel headers_all and headers_amd64 and the linux-image_amd64 and then put then put them in a dir and cd to it and run sudo dpkg -i *
[11:50] <EriC^^> yeah
[11:50] <u1604lts> Hello, I have ubuntu 16.04.1LTS, nvidia 980TI, 32 gig ram, etc... system was working great... updated nvida drivers and can't get past the enter password for Luks unless I go recovermode now..
[11:50] <Ben64> sounds like a bad idea
[11:51] <u1604lts> after recovermode i can finish boot and log in and it works great...
[11:51] <u1604lts> How can I fix this?
[11:51] <EriC^^> Ben64: what does?
[11:51] <Ben64> having a self described "noob" installing an unsupported kernel
[11:52] <cripcate> any other idea for solving my problem if updating the kernel is so bad?
[11:52] <EriC^^> it's pretty clear in the wiki, his laptop has suspend issues and the newer kernel could fix it (it did for mine)
[11:52] <cripcate> well i iuse ubuntu for over a year, but wont describe myself as a poweruser. i only use the terminal for basic stuff.
[11:53] <EriC^^> cripcate: nothing will break, it's just a package, if it doesn't work you can apt-get remove it and nothing bad will have happened
[11:53] <Ben64> well at least it's ... yeah that ^
[11:54] <cripcate> well i think ill risk it
[11:54] <EriC^^> there's no risk :) just maybe wasting 5mins at most :D
[11:55] <EriC^^> dpkg -i * then reboot into the newer kernel, if it doesn't work then hold shift, and in grub choose advanced > select the older kernel
[11:55] <cripcate> so when i installed it does it automatically boot into the new kernel?
[11:55] <EriC^^> yeah, by default it'll boot into the latest one
[11:56] <EriC^^> in grub you can choose to boot older ones if they're installed
[11:56] <cripcate> alrighty
[11:56] <cripcate> back in a sec
[11:56] <u1604lts> Anyone... ?
[11:58] <MonkeyDust> u1604lts  anyone what
[11:58] <u1604lts> Hello, I have ubuntu 16.04.1LTS, nvidia 980TI, 32 gig ram, etc... system was working great... updated nvida drivers and can't get past the enter password for Luks unless I go recovermode now..
[11:58] <u1604lts> I want to fix this issue...
[11:58] <u1604lts> If someone can assist.
[12:00] <cripcate_> Updating kernel seems to have solved the issue
[12:00] <cripcate_> Thanks Eric^^
[12:01] <cripcate_> is there a terminal command i can check my current kernel with?
[12:01] <EriC^^> cripcate_: no problem
[12:01] <EriC^^> cripcate_: uname -r

[12:02] <Dreaman> cripcate_ try 4.7.2
[12:02] <EriC^^> riqj: are you sure it's msdos not uefi?
[12:03] <riqj> Eric I don't know. how can I check it?
[12:03] <u1604lts> Have I explained my issue correctly I wonder? Am I the only one who has encountered this?
[12:03] <riqj> EriC^^ I don't know. how can I check it?
[12:03] <EriC^^> riqj: try sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[12:04] <EriC^^> then sudo parted -l | pastebinit and paste the link it gives you here
[12:05] <EriC^^> u1604lts: paste the question every 10mins or so until someone who knows about it sees it
[12:06] <u1604lts> ok.. thanks EriC^^ ... does it make sense what I have said.. ?
[12:06] <EriC^^> yeah, graphics issue, cant put the passphrase
[12:07] <u1604lts> ok, thanks.
[12:09] <klepvixzub> hello, I have Ubuntu 16.04 on a macbook but I have a problem with the input sound I can not operate the microwave for example when I pass calls on Skype or other applications. I do not know how to fix this issue knowing that since I installed ubuntu I have this worries
[12:09] <riqj> EriC^^ here is the output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23127798/
[12:09] <cfhowlett> klepvixzub, microwave?  what, you cooking popcorn??
[12:11] <klepvixzub> cfhowlett: sorry i don't speak english, it's a google translate, i think
[12:11] <kittykitty> i cant set the resolution of my new screen to the right size, it only lets me use 1024x786 but supports up to 1680x1050. I can set it with xrandr but it errors on boot saying it cant restore the config
[12:11] <cfhowlett> klepvixzub, no problem.
[12:12] <riqj> so it seems to be msdos
[12:13] <klepvixzub> cfhowlett: i mean input audio not work since i install ubuntu, but i don't know how can i fix this,
[12:14] <EriC^^> riqj: ok, how big is your root file system?
[12:14] <riqj> EriC^^ you mean my HDD?
[12:14] <arunpyasi> people where can I fix my bluetooth connection of my headphone with an UBuntu PC ?
[12:14] <EriC^^> no, the "/" of the linux install
[12:15] <arunpyasi> Headphone get connected but disconnected soon without hearing anything..
[12:15] <riqj> EriC^^ currently I am on a live usb of 16gb
[12:16] <riqj> and on my hdd there are several OSes, as shown in the paste
[12:16] <EriC^^> riqj: i mean the root filesystem that other stuff is mounted on, like /home /boot etc.
[12:16] <EriC^^> riqj: the first 60gb aren't used in the hdd, are you aware of that?
[12:17] <riqj> EriC^^ I dont know how to give a correct answer to this...yes, the 60gb is free space
[12:17] <riqj> but the hdd is 160gb in total
[12:17] <EriC^^> it's not used anywhere though, it's unallocated
[12:19] <arunpyasi> EriC^^, do you have an experience on BT ?
[12:19] <EriC^^> arunpyasi: nope, sorry
[12:20] <EriC^^> riqj: how big is the ubuntu os?
[12:20] <Surfer2010> /tmp/camd.socket   (No such file or directory); Do you have OSCam running?   <-- what does this mean?
[12:20] <riqj> EriC^^ I have several OSes on the disk. which one do you mean?
[12:21] <EriC^^> riqj: which one do you want to install grub for?
[12:21] <riqj> all ubuntu
[12:21] <EriC^^> pick one which will be the main one, that you'll run update-grub on more often than the others
[12:21] <riqj> EriC^^ any single one of them..all are same
[12:21] <Dro> i want to make a partition for data, whats the best filesystem NTFS OR FAT32 OR EXT4 ?
[12:22] <EriC^^> Dro: will it be shared between windows and linux?
[12:22] <Dro> (new partition not for ubuntu system)
[12:22] <Dro> EriC^^, now i'm not using windows, but i may use it later :|
[12:22] <EriC^^> Dro: ntfs is good
[12:22] <riqj> EriC^^ ok, then I choose /dev/sda7
[12:22] <EriC^^> riqj: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[12:25] <riqj> EriC^^ ok, mounted
[12:25] <Surfer2010> /tmp/camd.socket   (No such file or directory); Do you have OSCam running?   <-- what does this mean?
[12:26] <EriC^^> riqj: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[12:26] <EriC^^> type the whole line above
[12:26] <riqj> without riqj: ?..joking :))
[12:27] <EriC^^> :D
[12:27] <riqj> ok, I did
[12:28] <mstf_> QUİT
[12:28] <EriC^^> riqj: type sudo chroot /mnt
[12:28] <mstf_> QUIT
[12:28] <gb_mks> do someone know a good addressbook for ubuntu?
[12:29] <riqj> EriC^^ ok, I am in root now
[12:30] <EriC^^> riqj: ok, type mount -a
[12:30] <riqj> EriC^^ I did
[12:30] <EriC^^> riqj: ok, grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
[12:30] <EriC^^> then update-grub
[12:31] <u1604lts> Hello, I have ubuntu 16.04.1LTS, nvidia 980TI, 32 gig ram, etc... system was working great... updated nvida drivers and can't get past the enter password for Luks unless I go recovermode now..
[12:31] <riqj> EriC^^ seems to be success, it is generating config file
[12:32] <riqj> now can I reboot?
[12:33] <EriC^^> riqj: yeah, type exit then reboot
[12:34] <riqj> EriC^^ thank you so much! rebooting now, till soon :)
[12:38] <Dro> EriC^^, i'll use the partition to stock a virtual disk of virtualbox
[12:38] <Dro> so u think it will be better to use NTFS?
[12:39] <EriC^^> Dro: yeah, if you'll use it on windows too go for ntfs
[12:39] <kinpowoo_> no one?
[12:40] <Dro> whats the main difference between NTFS and ext4?
[12:40] <Dro> ext4 is faster?
[12:40] <EriC^^> windows can't read ext by default
[12:40] <EriC^^> i dont think so
[12:44] <riqj> EriC^^ grub is installed..thank you very much!
[12:44] <EriC^^> riqj: great, no problem!
[12:44] <Tin_man> Dro, if you want a explanation of the difference I ran across this : http://askubuntu.com/questions/689702/comparing-ntfs-and-ext4
[12:44] <riqj> ciao, have a good weekend! :)
[12:44] <EriC^^> riqj: thanks, you too :)
[12:45] <riqj> thank you :)
[12:52] <u1604lts> Hello, I have ubuntu 16.04.1LTS, nvidia 980TI, 32 gig ram, etc... system was working great... updated nvida drivers and can't get past the enter password for Luks unless I go recovermode now..
[12:53] <Vad3r> if I wanted to transfer my ubuntu install to a new os, can it be done?
[12:53] <Vad3r> new system*
[12:54] <EriC^^> !clonezilla | Vad3r
[12:54] <EriC^^> !cloning | Vad3r
[12:55] <EriC^^> Vad3r: you can use clonezilla for that
[12:55] <Vad3r> will ubuntu work with the new hardware though EriC^^ ?
[12:56] <EriC^^> it might not, you'd have to chroot from a live usb and maybe update-initramfs and install the right graphics driver maybe
[12:56] <EriC^^> it'll work probably though
[13:08] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:15] <beasty> hi all !
[13:15] <beasty> I just installed a fresh system on a brand new ssd and the system is really laggy any ideas that pop into your heads?
[13:18]  * chrisharven @beasty : Have you check the in the System monitor for any misbehaving processes ?
[13:20] <Phryq> am I logged in to Freenode?
[13:20] <Phryq> how can I tell?
[13:22] <beasty> chrisharven: no missbehaving processes
[13:22] <beasty> only 800mb/32gb ram used
[13:22] <beasty> and all 8 cores are < 5% usage
[13:32] <uotzap> Phryq: probably
[13:32] <zzookk> Hello guys. Situation: I've installed 32-bit java 6 on 64-bit ubuntu. I've installed 32-bit libs, but when i tried to run java app, i got - such error http://pastebin.com/3FB6r39G But i have this lib in this folder. What i'm doin wrong?
[13:33] <zzookk> I can't use any another version of java, because of restrictions of this app

[13:45] <Guest46020> fuck you
[13:47] <akik> i've mounted a cifs share in /etc/fstab. the mount works ok. on every reboot the mount hangs because network-manager brings the interface down before umounting the share. anyone know how this could be fixed?
[13:48] <akik> (this is kubuntu 14.04)

[13:59] <kittykitty> anyone else not got any titles in some programs on ubuntu 16.04?
[14:01] <drizbit> no?
[14:01] <drizbit> which programs?
[14:01] <drizbit> fresh install?
[14:02] <mostafa12> how i can install hp printer in ubuntu 16
[14:03] <kittykitty> drizbit, not fresh install no. Just noticed it after changing the screen resolution
[14:03] <kittykitty> and like, literally any program
[14:04] <arch_> how can i change language in ubuntu kylin??
[14:05] <kittykitty> like, the boarders are there and so are the close buttons and everything but the actual text in the windows title is missing
[14:07] <drizbit> colours perhaps?
[14:10] <Skymont> so can Ubuntu run Miracast?
[14:16] <han-solo> hello
[14:17] <han-solo> i installed ubuntu 16, and it doesn't seems to have a grub menu?
[14:17] <drizbit> hi
[14:17] <han-solo> how can i install it?
[14:17] <baash05> Hey all.. is there a log that is generated before the kern.log is populated?
[14:17] <han-solo> i tried, gurb-install, sudo apt-get install grub
[14:17] <han-solo> sudo update-grub
[14:18] <EriC^^> han-solo: does it boot?
[14:18] <han-solo> yeah
[14:18] <han-solo> straight into ubuntu
[14:18] <EriC^^> han-solo: nevermind, type sudo nano /etc/default/grub
[14:18] <EriC^^> you're dual booting?
[14:18] <han-solo> yes
[14:19] <EriC^^> with windows?
[14:19] <han-solo> yes
[14:19] <EriC^^> update-grub shows windows?
[14:19] <baash05> I'm trying to debug a really slow bootup.
[14:20] <han-solo> nada
[14:20] <EriC^^> baash05: which ubuntu version
[14:20] <han-solo> 16.something
[14:20] <EriC^^> han-solo: ok, type sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[14:20] <baash05> 16.04
[14:20] <EriC^^> then sudo parted -l | pastebinit and paste the link it gives you ehre
[14:21] <EriC^^> baash05: try systemd-analyze
[14:21] <EriC^^> and systemd-analyze blame
[14:21] <baash05> Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS 64-bit
[14:21] <han-solo> i had the problem with the ubuntu in my laptop, i'm using debian in my dektop which i used to get here
[14:21] <han-solo> so i'll try logging in using that
[14:22] <baash05> systemd-analyze doesn't seem to take into account the slow.
[14:23] <Pici> ==/25
[14:24] <baash05> http://pastebin.com/adcueRbT
[14:24] <baash05> It took a few minutes to boot.
[14:24] <baash05> But this indicates a matter of 10 seconds or so.
[14:24] <EriC^^> baash05: try booting without "quiet splash" in the grub parameter line and see what takes it so long
[14:25] <EriC^^> you know how to edit the grub line?
[14:25] <baash05> Nope..
[14:25] <EriC^^> ok, hold shift to get grub, then press "e", then go to the line that says linux /boot/vmlinuz ... quiet splash and remove the quiet splash and press ctrl+x
[14:26] <baash05> Is there a way to edit that without rebooting?  Then the next time I reboot it will take effect?
[14:27] <baash05> I ask because I the reboot loop can take 10 minutes.
[14:27] <cicak> tes
[14:27] <baash05> It even fails sometimes.
[14:27] <cicak> tes
[14:28] <cicak> tanya tanya dong, newbie nih
[14:28] <cicak> ada orang malang?
[14:29] <EriC^^> baash05: yeah, you can edit /etc/default/grub and remove quiet splash from there then update-grub
[14:29] <cicak> tes tes
[14:32] <laszlowaty> re
[14:32] <cicak> tes
[14:32] <cicak> bisa liat gak?
[14:33] <Gourlay> How do I erase the "Keyring did not get unlocked"?
[14:33] <BluesKaj> !id |cicak
[14:33] <cicak> test
[14:35] <baash05> Okay.. once I have grub splash running.. what do I do with it?
[14:35] <cicak> can you all see my chat?
[14:35] <baash05> cicak.. define all..
[14:35] <cicak> lol its my first time
[14:35] <baash05> Hey cool.. Yes your chat is public.
[14:36] <cicak> i just wanna  try to learn about linux world
[14:36] <baash05> welcome to IRC.. it is the greatest new thing.
[14:36] <cicak> yeah
[14:37] <MonkeyDust> new?
[14:37] <cicak> sorry if my english skill is not good
[14:37] <cicak> yeah
[14:37] <baash05> Like slack only... well
[14:37] <cicak> newbie
[14:38] <baash05> EriC^^: once the splash screen is in play what does one do with it?
[14:38] <cicak> do you all know where is indonesian server is?
[14:39] <BluesKaj> IRC is new? ...that's news to me
[14:39] <EriC^^> baash05: try pressing esc
[14:39] <baash05> I was joking..
[14:39] <cicak> no, im new at irc
[14:39] <cicak> ohh okay
[14:40] <BluesKaj> baash05, so was I
[14:40] <baash05> EriC^^: I have but one computer, so I need to get my instructions in batches.
[14:40] <SchrodingersScat> that's the joke
[14:41] <BluesKaj> cicak, the server depends which location you enter during the installation
[14:41] <baash05> What's the point of showing the splash screen..
[14:42] <rly> baash05: it gives the idea to the user that Ubuntu works.
[14:42] <rly> baash05: that's of course a fat lie, but it's good marketing.
[14:42] <baash05> What does it accomplish in an attempt to understand an ever slowing boot.
[14:42] <baash05> :)
[14:42] <baash05> I'm trying to figure out why my boot time is taking minutes (if it finishes at all)
[14:42] <rly> baash05: if you want a fast boot, buy a couple of SSDs and put them in RAID-0.
[14:43] <rly> baash05: also build your own kernel, stripping out everything you don't need.
[14:43] <rly> baash05: disable all the services you don't need.
[14:43] <baash05> I'm working on a macpro.. just over a year old.
[14:43] <baash05> it should boot like a fireball.
[14:43] <baash05> and did a month or two ago.
[14:43] <rly> baash05: what hardware is in it?
[14:43] <rly> baash05: specs?
[14:44] <rly> baash05: not every mac book pro is the same.
[14:45] <rly> baash05: if you want any kind of reliable computing, you should also automatically run performance tests on your hardware, and analyze the results.
[14:45] <rly> baash05: these things are not done by operating systems.
[14:45] <baash05> Here's my sys
[14:45] <baash05> https://support.apple.com/kb/sp715?locale=en_US
[14:45] <rly> baash05: IMHO, they should, but we are still living in the past ;)
[14:45] <baash05> How can I run the test's you have in mind.
[14:46] <rly> baash05: you can just search for <component> benchmark linux on google.
[14:46] <rly> baash05: for harddisks there is hdparm, for example.
[14:46] <u1604lts> Hello, I have ubuntu 16.04.1LTS, nvidia 980TI, 32 gig ram, etc... system was working great... updated nvida drivers and can't get past the enter password for Luks unless I go recovermode now..
[14:47] <rly> baash05: for RAM tests there are also tests you can run. I am not sure whether you can automatically collect the results of that too.
[14:47] <rly> baash05: so, I am thinking here of a model where you run benchmarks at night automatically to see whether it still works before you actually want to use it.
[14:47] <EriC^^> baash05: can you pastebin /var/log/kern.log
[14:47] <baash05> Any idea how to test ioboards.
[14:48] <EriC^^> baash05: also sudo blkid && cat /etc/fstab
[14:48] <rly> baash05: and when there is no problem, you won't get a message.
[14:48] <davsantos> anyone knows about Cordova
[14:48] <rly> baash05: ioboards? You mean enterprise hardware?
[14:48] <rly> baash05: i.e. high IOPS tooling?
[14:49] <baash05> I had similar problems about 3 months ago..
[14:49] <baash05> they took my laptop in and "fixed" something.
[14:49] <baash05> said it was IOboards..
[14:49] <baash05> board.
[14:49] <rly> baash05: dmesg probably also shows something.
[14:49] <rly> baash05: dmesg is a command you can enter in a shell.
[14:50] <rly> baash05: if it says warning or conflict or problem or error or something like that you have an issue.
[14:51] <davsantos> When I try to run cordova or ionic I keep on getting the error:
[14:51] <davsantos> Error: Failed to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable. Try setting setting it manually.
[14:51] <davsantos> Failed to find 'android' command in your 'PATH'. Try update your 'PATH' to include path to valid SDK directory.
[14:51] <davsantos> although When I echo $ANDROID_HOME it returns /opt/android-sdk correctly
[14:52] <davsantos> and So the way I see it I have both paths to platform-tools and tools correctly added to PATH.
[14:52] <davsantos> /opt/android-sdk/tools:/opt/android-sdk/platform-tools
[14:52] <rly> davsantos: cordovo is not even an Ubuntu managed package, is it?
[14:52] <davsantos> you mean wrong chat?
[14:52] <rly> davsantos: you should ask this question to the people who created the software you are using.
[14:52] <u1604lts> Hmmm I'm thinking this issue us just my machine, I'll try re-installing it later I guess.
[14:52] <davsantos> ok thanks
[14:52] <rly> davsantos: yes, Ubuntu is broken enough as it is :)
[14:53] <baash05> rly: I have a few errors..
[14:53] <baash05> http://pastebin.com/XHtN6yGQ
[14:53] <baash05> Not sure if they are the cause though.
[14:54] <baash05> So when it was suggested to show the grub splash..
[14:54] <baash05> what was that for?
[14:54] <rly> baash05: you should google for those error messages and if nothing comes up, you should file a bug report.
[14:55] <rly> baash05: also, how slow is slow?
[14:55] <baash05> 10 minutes
[14:55] <rly> baash05: to boot?
[14:56] <baash05> Yep.
[14:56] <rly> baash05: there are tools which show where the boot spends time.
[14:56] <baash05> before I even see the login screen.
[14:56] <rly> baash05: you should install one of those tools, make a pretty picture and see whether you can see what is causing it.
[14:56] <baash05> Suggestions?
[14:56] <rly> baash05: your kernel boots in 36 seconds.
[14:56] <rly> baash05: so, the problem is certainly not there.
[14:57] <baash05> I can live with ~30 seconds.
[14:57] <baash05> I had a whole meeting the otherday and it failed to boot.
[14:58] <baash05> An it was with a PM.. so you know it wasn't fast.
[14:58] <rly> baash05: is this a personal laptop?
[14:58] <baash05> Work = personal.
[14:58] <rly> baash05: did your boss pay for it?
[14:58] <baash05> No..
[14:59] <baash05> But I used it at work.
[14:59] <rly> baash05: are you self-employed?
[14:59] <baash05> Nope.
[14:59] <rly> baash05: ok, so you would have to pay Apple money personally to get it fixed, if something is broken?
[14:59] <baash05> It is my only laptop.. Yes they would provide one.. but then I'd be on OSZ
[14:59] <thiras> should i use official pip installation or apt?
[14:59] <thiras> which one do you recommend?
[15:00] <baash05> It is under warrenty.. I got extended.
[15:00] <rly> baash05: I am not sure how they handle that you are running another OS.
[15:00] <baash05> They format it..
[15:00] <rly> baash05: but returning it seems like an easy option.
[15:00] <rly> baash05: do you have backups?
[15:01] <baash05> Oh yeah.. backed up like a mad man.
[15:01] <rly> baash05: if it's under warranty, it's someone else's problem.
[15:01] <baash05> Yeah.. but it puts me out of work for a few days while I wait for it.
[15:02] <rly> baash05: you can buy an extra backup ;)
[15:02] <rly> baash05: some professionals do that.
[15:03] <Marcello> How i can easier work with linux
[15:03] <baash05> If i have a backup I think it would become my main system..
[15:03] <Marcello> I have problems only
[15:03] <rly> baash05: if you make 1000 USD/day and assume it will fail once every year, then over a five year period it would be cheaper to do that.
[15:03] <Marcello> I need easy navigate like in windows
[15:03] <baash05> Humm true..
[15:03] <baash05> And I did see a nice looking system today..
[15:03] <rly> baash05: not using Apple products also help.
[15:03] <rly> helps*
[15:03] <baash05> Yeah.. I like the build quality and customer support.
[15:03] <baash05> but then I like the computer to work too.
[15:04] <raymondillo>  /qut
[15:04] <SchrodingersScat> Marcello: can you define what that is?
[15:04] <rly> baash05: their cell phones have some value, but their computers don't, imho.
[15:04] <Marcello> I have har4d to work in linux
[15:05] <Marcello> I need bunch of consoile commands
[15:05] <SchrodingersScat> !fud | rly no, the phones are also awful
[15:05] <Marcello> Its makes simple works harder to do
[15:05] <rly> SchrodingersScat: don't you like the integration with their cloud, the fingerprint scanner to login, etc.?
[15:06] <SchrodingersScat> Marcello: once you streamline your cli workflow it's actually much more efficient
[15:06] <rly> SchrodingersScat: additionally, you have more control over what apps can do.
[15:06] <baash05> Well he did say they have some value.
[15:06] <SchrodingersScat> rly: my huawei has a fingerprint scanner, I like it more than I would have thought.
[15:07] <rly> SchrodingersScat: is the performance just as good?
[15:07] <rly> SchrodingersScat: if typing in a code takes longer, it's useless.
[15:07] <rly> SchrodingersScat: the iPhone's fingerprint performance is what I would classify as "not annoyingly slow to use".
[15:07] <SchrodingersScat> Marcello: if you prefer gui, there's often alternatives.
[15:08] <rly> SchrodingersScat: some might call it fast, but for that to be the case it would have to work in under 10ms, which it doesn't.
[15:09] <dan01> Hi, anyone here running Ubuntu on a Skylake CPU?
[15:09] <rly> SchrodingersScat: to which iPhone model are you comparing the Huawei scanner?
[15:10] <rly> SchrodingersScat: I just saw a review which said the Huawei one was "super fast", which sounds good.
[15:11] <netvixtra> laszlowaty: chicken and pasta today. want some?
[15:11] <SchrodingersScat> rly: doesn't really matter, neither are ubuntu
[15:11] <netvixtra> dan01: yeah
[15:12] <rly> SchrodingersScat: but who wants to run Ubuntu?
[15:12] <SchrodingersScat> !support | rly
[15:12] <netvixtra> rly: Nexus 6P is significantly faster than iphone when it comes to fingerprint reading
[15:12] <dan01> netvixtra: I guess it's a normal desktop/laptop and you run Ubuntu 16.04.1 Desktop on it? I just want to know if everitying is ok and if compared to Windows you fell any performance lose/gain
[15:13] <netvixtra> dan01: yeah, there is some perf loss
[15:13] <rly> Phones should also be fortresses of security, which Android isn't after 18 months.
[15:14] <dan01> netvixtra: In what sens? Battery life?
[15:14] <netvixtra> dan01: media decoding and viewing "complex" web sites
[15:14] <rly> An actual Linux phone on which you can run a vanilla kernel with the proper options would be of interest.
[15:14] <netvixtra> It's slower in all ways.
[15:15] <netvixtra> rly: Look into Google Nexus phones, the android shipped there is as clean as it gets
[15:15] <xangua> Except for AOSP, yes
[15:17] <netvixtra> xangua: AOSP is still WIP for many models.. but thats maybe what he's after
[15:17] <minotaur_> hi
[15:18] <laszlowaty> netvixtra, sure! I never say no to chicken :)
[15:19] <baash05> Question.. Are there any suggested laptops for ubuntu?
[15:19] <baash05> I'm looking at this https://www.asus.com/au/Notebooks/ASUS-ZenBook-UX305CA/specifications/
[15:19] <laszlowaty> baash05, http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/desktop/models/?release=12.04%20LTS&category=Laptop
[15:19] <laszlowaty> this is for ubuntu 12.04
[15:19]  * netvixtra pets his X1 Carbon
[15:19] <laszlowaty> most guys from canonical are still working closely with dell
[15:20] <laszlowaty> baash05, http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/desktop/models/?query=&category=Laptop&level=Any&release=16.04+LTS
[15:20] <baash05> Ug.. the build quality on dell has always made me sad.
[15:21] <laszlowaty> baash05, but to be honest, ubuntu works almost everywhere without major problems. My parents are using ubuntu
[15:21] <xangua> baash05: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuPre-installed
[15:21] <netvixtra> premium warranty features on dell has always made me happy
[15:21] <tgm4883> I've heard the build quality on the XPS is good, that said, I use a Lenovo T450s
[15:21] <laszlowaty> and since then they stopped calling me every few days saying that 'some error pops up'
[15:22] <baash05> Yeah.. I don't care about warranty, if it mean i have to engage it.
[15:23] <baash05> I got another year on my current warranty, and I'm not in love with the idea of taking it back..
[15:23] <netvixtra> laszlowaty: I just switched ssd from a HP 2560p (with working installed ubuntu) and dropped it in a Lenovo, everything worked out of the box (exept for display resolution)
[15:23] <netvixtra> Can't do that with windows..
[15:23] <rly> netvixtra: and for how long do I get security updates?
[15:23] <baash05> My pro is working well.. or did for a while..
[15:24] <rly> netvixtra: if the answer is anything other than "for a decade", it seems rather pointless to contribute to the planet's waste pile.
[15:24] <baash05> but it is acting up and someone suggested I get a backup.
[15:24] <netvixtra> rly: speaking of AOSP now?
[15:24] <laszlowaty> netvixtra, niice :D
[15:24] <rly> netvixtra: I am talking about any kind of security issue found after release.
[15:25] <krad> hi.  why my ubuntu doesn't have an /etc/default dir
[15:25] <rly> netvixtra: there are already 900 million devices you can just hack into if you want.
[15:25] <Metamorphosis> Can i install ubuntu instead of windows and be sure that my files are safe? i do not have any other storage device
[15:26] <rly> Metamorphosis: if that's your level of understanding, no. Otherwise, yes.
[15:26] <rly> Metamorphosis: and Ubuntu recommends backups.
[15:27] <rly> Metamorphosis: there is also no such thing as certainty in this world.
[15:27] <Exagone313> rly: how does it copy the files?
[15:27] <baash05> Metamorphosis: To be honest, not having a backup is crazy.
[15:27] <rly> Exagone313: ?
[15:27] <netvixtra> rly: My personal opinion is that any supplier of software to phones is pretty sloppy and it mostly takes 9000 years before a patch is released.
[15:27] <laszlowaty> baash05, I do not use backups. Never did, never will.
[15:27] <baash05> No matter what system you're on.. drop it in a puddle and you're screwed.
[15:28] <baash05> Ha.
[15:28] <Metamorphosis> i upgraded windows 7 to windows 10 and all my files were safe and untouched. i know this is an entire new OS but i though that it was possible
[15:28] <Exagone313> how could you switch from ntfs to ext4/btrfs and keeping the files
[15:28] <baash05> Oh.. I see what you mean.. No you can't do that.
[15:28] <netvixtra> Exagone313: you dont
[15:29] <rly> Exagone313: I know of a way to do that, but it will cost around 100M USD.
[15:29] <Exagone313> Metamorphosis: windows uses its onw format to store the files on the drive (filesystem), so when you install Ubuntu, it reases everything
[15:29] <laszlowaty> Metamorphosis, shrink your windows partition. Install ubuntu alongside windows, mount windows partition, copy files. Remove windows partition
[15:29] <Exagone313> erases*
[15:29] <Exagone313> yes or do a dual boot like described by laszlowaty
[15:29] <rly> My method assumed a disk which was almost full.
[15:30] <laszlowaty> Exagone313, You don't have to keep dual boot. Just to copy the files.
[15:30] <netvixtra> rly: they mostly are
[15:30] <netvixtra> I would just buy another drive
[15:30] <Exagone313> laszlowaty: then you have a small partition at the end of your drive
[15:30] <rly> Running without backups is just crazy.
[15:30] <netvixtra> they are doomed to failure sometime
[15:30] <laszlowaty> Exagone313, remove that partition :)
[15:30] <Exagone313> Metamorphosis: don't be confused
[15:30] <Exagone313> Metamorphosis: do you want to keep windows?
[15:31] <laszlowaty> Personally I like using ubuntu from inside windows (virtualbox). Ubuntu-mate works great.
[15:31] <Exagone313> is it a laptop (one drive) or a desktop (multiple drives possible)?
[15:31] <laszlowaty> In fact I'm using this setup in work (stupid corpo policies against linux, too much work to get it working)
[15:33] <Exagone313> if you have access to the computer, you can simply have an usb drive to make a backup
[15:34] <netvixtra> laszlowaty: soon the HR manager calls you into a meeting accusing you of stealing corporate secrets..
[15:34] <Exagone313> personally, I use a new drive for a new install, then I copy the files, and a month or two after, I erase the former drive
[15:34] <laszlowaty> netvixtra, :D
[15:36] <rly> laszlowaty: that would require a HR manager to understand something.
[15:37] <laszlowaty> rly, I like HR managers at my company. Those girls are really friendly
[15:38] <laszlowaty> btw guys, does ubuntu comes with tilda?
[15:39] <netvixtra> no
[15:39] <netvixtra> but its in the repo
[15:40] <rly> laszlowaty: they have to be likeable, but that doesn't mean they have a brain.
[15:41] <tgm4883> Can we take this off topic chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:41] <laszlowaty> rly, but it's always nice to small-talk with them during coffea :)
[15:41] <laszlowaty> rlex, and they try reaaaaly hard to understand :)
[15:42] <BluesKaj> heh, maybe they think the same about you ;-)
[15:42] <laszlowaty> probably
[15:42] <laszlowaty> worked once as 'trainer' in operations
[15:42] <laszlowaty> they treated programmers as lower life :)
[15:44] <unwaba> join #bookz
[15:44] <krad> hi.  why my ubuntu doesn't have an /etc/default dir?
[15:45] <tgm4883> krad: what's the output of 'cat /var/log/installer/media-info | nc termbin.com 9999'
[15:46] <sysadmin> Hello. I have done sudo do-release-upgrade but I've lost all the GUI
[15:46] <sysadmin> how is that possible?
[15:46] <sysadmin> please help I'm very sad
[15:47] <laszlowaty> sysadmin, What have you done!?
[15:47] <ikonia> sysadmin: define lost the gui
[15:47] <BluesKaj> probly the desktop
[15:47] <netvixtra> sounds like his apt process failed
[15:47] <sysadmin> I have the CLI prompt, the one that you can switch among the 1-6 tty
[15:47] <krad> tgm4883?
[15:47] <sysadmin> ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS server ty1
[15:47] <sysadmin> tty1
[15:47] <krad> tgm4883, why do you want me to netcat?
[15:48] <sysadmin> if I press ctrl alt F7 nothing happens
[15:48] <tgm4883> krad: because I'd like to have you pastebin the output of that command, which doing a nc to termbin.com does
[15:48] <ikonia> sysadmin: there is no "gui" on a server install
[15:48] <BluesKaj> sysadmin, did you update and upgradwe with apt?
[15:48] <ikonia> sysadmin: you're going to have to provide more details
[15:49] <SchrodingersScat> !details | sysadmin :D
[15:49] <krad> cat: /var/log/installer/media-info: No such file or directory
[15:49] <tgm4883> krad: is this a VPS of some sorts?
[15:49] <krad> yes
[15:49] <krad> it's a vps
[15:49] <tgm4883> krad: which provider?
[15:49] <laszlowaty> tgm4883, nice feature! didn't know that
[15:49] <krad> scaleway
[15:49] <krad> i bought it yesterday
[15:49] <tgm4883> krad: talk to them, they probably fubar'd the image
[15:50] <tgm4883> I feel like scaleway was already on my list to not use for some other reason
[15:50] <krad> tgm4883, well i was following jenkins's installlation instructions and they mention /etc/default in the docs.. so i was wondering
[15:50] <tgm4883> krad: it's possible that you could just create the directory and be fine
[15:50] <tgm4883> but I'm not going to spend time troubleshooting some companies image
[15:51] <tgm4883> especially when I should be getting breakfast
[15:51] <krad> what do you mean by fubar'd the image?
[15:51] <tgm4883> krad: like they customized the image making it difficult to support
[15:51] <Labbo> ciao
[15:51] <Labbo> !!!!!!!

[15:55] <jordila> hi #ubuntu community
[15:57] <jordila> i'm getting stucked when at boot... , "system says /dev/sda1: clean 12035/files , ... " ... what am i missing ?
[15:58] <m___> hi
[15:58] <jordila> as long as this is a pretty old computer.. could it be that hard disk is failing or something like ?
[16:00] <JAY6390> Hi all. Does anyone know what version of libnih works with libc6 2.11?
[16:00] <JAY6390> can’t seem to find a deb package that works with it
[16:00] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: could be worth checking into, although that could also just be a regular fsck filesystem check
[16:01] <ikonia> JAY6390: what version of ubuntu are you running this on
[16:01] <JAY6390> 10.0.4
[16:01] <SchrodingersScat> !smart | jordila
[16:01] <JAY6390> 10.04*
[16:01] <ikonia> 10,04 is EOL and unsupported, sorry
[16:01] <JAY6390> I’m trying to fix a major screw up. I’ve fixed libc6 by reverting to 2.11
[16:01] <JAY6390> yeah I know :)
[16:01] <JAY6390> I’m trying to upgrade
[16:02] <ikonia> you've messed with the core c libraray on an unsupported release.
[16:02] <JAY6390> but due to a screw up with an upgrade, it broke libc6
[16:02] <ikonia> sorry - your box is out of support here
[16:02] <jordila> SchrodingersCat ... the thing is that i succeed in booting the system via a "Ubuntu in a pen drive" ...
[16:02] <JAY6390> i assume libnih is still available for download somewhere for the version of libc6 though ikonia
[16:03] <jordila> for a couple of times... but no anymore, i gets stucked again. Indeed, my objective now is to perform a Hdd check
[16:03] <BluesKaj> JAY6390, libnih depends on libc6 => 2.15 according to muon on 16.04
[16:03] <jordila> but... i need to boot it somehow first !
[16:03] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: oh, I see, you weren't able to get past that?  So now you're using a liveusb?  You should still be able to run those !smart programs and see what's up with the drive.  If you think it's failing make sure you have !backups that anything that would make you sad to lose.
[16:04] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: you can't liveusb either? ;(
[16:04] <jordila> yeah... not worried about backups... and data loss.
[16:04] <jordila> i can't
[16:04] <SchrodingersScat> you should be...
[16:04] <JAY6390> BluesKaj: Yeah - I saw that. Is libnih even necessary on 10.04 ?
[16:04] <ikonia> JAY6390: the 10.04 repos still exist on old-releases.ubuntu.com
[16:04] <jordila> that's weird... cause i succeed in booting a couple of times
[16:04] <JAY6390> yeah I have those configured in apt’s sources
[16:05] <JAY6390> unfortunately, I can’t do apt-get upgrade or do-release-upgrade without fixing this libnih issue
[16:05] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: are you able to try to redo the liveusb?  Or is there any errors during the process?
[16:05] <jordila> SchrodingersCat ... it is not a Liveusb.
[16:05] <sysadmin> BluesKaj: I did the upgrade via CLI but I had a GUI environment before... should I reinstall unity or smth?
[16:06] <jordila> I used a Liveusb in order to create a full system onto another Pen Drive.
[16:07] <jordila> and... as said, that scenario worked fine for several times... booted successfully. Was fully operational
[16:07] <BluesKaj> JAY6390, , you should seriously consider upgrading your OS ... package dependency problems are only gonna get worse
[16:08] <jordila> I'm wondering... is there a way to bypass hdd (sda1 ) ... checking when at boot  ?
[16:08] <BluesKaj> sysadmin, whatever desktop you were using previously should work
[16:08] <JAY6390> BluesKaj: that’s what I’m trying to do :) It’s a server
[16:08] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: all flash drives die, not all truly live
[16:08] <JAY6390> BluesKaj: so I’m trying to do this without any interruption if possible
[16:08] <BluesKaj> JAY6390, gotcha
[16:09] <JAY6390> I can’t remove libnih with dpkg, and I can’t do any upgrades without fixing the incompatibility between it and libc6
[16:09] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: afaik only if it says so, sometimes mine will say ctrl-c will stop it.  This may not apply to all instances.  why would you want to stop a check though? ;(
[16:11] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: of course, booting from a liveusb would bypass it.
[16:11] <jordila> mmm... my hypthesis is.. rather than the Pen Drive 'ubuntu system' crashed... could it be that the failing hdd  is preventing  the boot ?
[16:12] <jordila> how could i bypass it in order to confirm/reject ^^ hypothesis ?
[16:13] <BluesKaj> JAY6390, did you run the standard commands , sudo dpkg --configure -a and sudo apt -f install
[16:14] <jordila> SchrodingerScat( my first thought was, well... if hdd is failing... let's go for a system on a 'Pen drive'..though )
[16:14] <JAY6390> apt-get -f install yes BluesKaj
[16:14] <JAY6390> I get the following
[16:15] <JAY6390> http://pastebin.com/PyjDvqCz
[16:15] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: if you're booting off the usb then yes, it won't access the hdd
[16:15] <jordila> indeed, that's the case. Still, no joy :-/
[16:16] <JAY6390> it was a lot more originally before I fixed the libc6 issue - however its still trying to remove apache etc which it really shouldn’t be. Original issues apt-get -f install - http://askubuntu.com/questions/818454/ubuntu-10-04-4-lts-apt-get-update-issue
[16:16] <ARTATT> hii
[16:16] <ARTATT> hello
[16:16] <jordila> SchrodingerScat ..that's way i'm looking for a way to kind of bypassing the HDD. mmh... maybe via the BIOS ?
[16:17] <SchrodingersScat> jordila: sure, and often there's f keys or esc you can press to bring up the boot options.
[16:19] <JAY6390> BluesKaj: looks like I solved it ! thanks for trying to help anyway. installed libnih libnih1_1.0.1-1_amd64.deb
[16:19] <JAY6390> now to attempt the upgrade

[16:56] <dublin> Does Nvidia run better than AMD when it comes to using 3d software?
[16:58] <Bashing-om> dublin: Depends on a number of factors . Presenly in 16.04 - and only presently - then yes Nvidia has the better performance .
[17:05] <mypainter> Hi! I'm looking for help getting a cross-compiler (c++ and libs) setup working for Ubuntu->win64 , so that I can build unit-tests from ubuntu.
[17:06] <mypainter> also, I'm hoping that this is logged somewhere, becasue my internet is bouncing
[17:06] <ngomes> how to find which process_id is sending UDP packets ? nethogs only show TCP
[17:16] <de-facto> on a notebook with regular HDD (mechanical) there is the problem that the heads get parked pretty frequently. This is not good for the HDDs lifetime, hence the question arises: which would be the appropriate approach in Xenial to prevent HDDs head parking? Is there a software for that (e.g. a daemon on startup) to tell the HDD to use a longer timeout for head parking or to disable it all together?
[17:17] <ertai87> hey guys I'm on xchat, how do I add a new irc server to the default list?
[17:17] <ertai87> I'm new to irc :s
[17:17] <Peppernrino> get an ssd. :)
[17:18] <de-facto> Peppernrino not an option, its gonna be HDD
[17:19] <de-facto> ertai87 use hexchat instead and ask in #hexchat
[17:20] <de-facto> !xchat
[17:20] <ertai87> ok thanks!
[17:21] <oj> lol my question was asked and i didnt even say anything
[17:22] <mypainter> oh I was wondering why xchat couldn't be added
[17:32] <adolf_craifert> I need to know the directory structure for /boot/efi, to fix and copy grubx64.efi

[17:36] <compdoc> seperate drives
[17:36] <mypainter> How do I fix apt?
[17:36] <mypainter> it says that runit was n't configured
[17:36] <mypainter> anred now it doesn't work anymo
[17:37] <mypainter> and now it doesn't work anymore
[17:37] <mypainter> Setting up runit (2.1.2-3ubuntu1) ...
[17:37] <mypainter> start: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused

[17:37] <de-facto> hmm to prevent frequent hdd head parking, would http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/laptop-mode-tools be suitable to do that?
[17:37] <mypainter>  git-daemon-run depends on runit; however:
[17:37] <alxtb> Hi I/list
[17:38] <de-facto> mypainter use pastebin or similar
[17:38] <de-facto> http://paste.ubuntu.com/ for example
[17:39] <mypainter> de-facto : http://paste.ubuntu.com/23129006/
[17:40] <alxtb> Hi I have set up an ubuntu server virtual machine to ssh into but I can't figure out how to connect to it. My first thought is I have the wrong internal IP but other than ipconfig which hasn't given me any working clues
[17:41] <de-facto> mypainter i dont have a clue about those, but upstart get replaced with systemd afaik
[17:41] <swensson> After changed something in /etc/apache/sites-enabled/myconf.conf, how do I apply this? systemctl reload apache2, /etc/init.d/networking reload, ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0, should be enough. RIght?
[17:41] <alxtb> does anyone have any clue for the steps to follow to figure this out?
[17:42] <de-facto> alxtb you have to make sure port 22 of the guest is routed to some port (e.g. 2222) on the host machine. then you can connect to <IP_ADDRESS>:2222 to reach your guest at port 22
[17:42] <alxtb> so it can't be port 22 twice?
[17:43] <swensson> alxtb what are you hosting in ?
[17:43] <de-facto> alxtb hmm i think one has to be root to open ports below 1024, and port 22 may already be in use for the host sshd
[17:44] <alxtb> virtualbox
[17:44] <de-facto> easy then just forward the port in the lil network icon at the bottom of your guest window
[17:46] <swensson> I don't think you can reach any other devices in the network other than your host in virtualbox if you havn't setup correctly. If i remember correct (I don't) hosts in virtualbox get an subnet only reachable by your hosting machine
[17:46] <de-facto> alxtb e.g. SSH, Proto TCP, HOST IP <IP_ADDRESS>, Host Port 2020, Guest IP <IP_ADDRESS>, guest Port 22
[17:47] <alxtb> thanks de-facto trying now
[17:48] <de-facto> alxtb btw there is also #vbox on freenode here :)
[17:48] <swensson> How do I port forward in ubuntu? Im trying to create an virtual host that's reachable outside my network...
[17:49] <SchrodingersScat> swensson: seems like more of a router question
[17:50] <StumpDumb> Could someone direct me how to use ppa-purge to reset to the default ppa packages. Thx
[17:50] <SchrodingersScat> !ppa-purge
[17:51] <swensson> SchrodingersScat not really, I know how to open ports on my router. but I keep messing up in apache....
[17:53] <swensson> Currently it looks like this, <VirtualHost <IP_ADDRESS>:80> <VirtualHost <IP_ADDRESS>:80> <VirtualHost <IP_ADDRESS>:80> so I can reach each site with a different IP..(This worked as I only inteded to display 1 site) but now I want to display 2 sites outside my network, so I need to change the port on my <VirtualHost <IP_ADDRESS>:81> To be reachable (Can't have to 80) but I cannot get this to work...
[17:56] <keviv> So windows notoriously clobbered my grub. After booting into a live USB and attempting a grub-install, it complained that I have a gpt scheme. So I tried boot-repair and it seemed successful. Indeed, upon reboot grub is loaded, and it shows a couple windows options, "EFI/ubuntu/fqupx64.efi", "EFI/ubuntu/MokManager.efi", and an option to reboot to bios setup, but no Ubuntu boot entry
[17:56] <keviv> What else can I try?
[17:56] <mypainter> can I delete runit and git-daemon-run?
[17:56] <EriC^^> keviv: boot into the live usb and install pastebinit
[17:56] <EriC^^> then sudo parted -l | pastebinit and paste please
[17:57] <keviv> EriC^^: will do
[17:59] <keviv> EriC^^: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23129106
[18:00] <EriC^^> keviv: type sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt
[18:00] <mypainter> what is runit
[18:00] <de-facto> swensson if you use a firewall in ubuntu like ufw you need to open ports in there (usually with gui in settings). if you use something like vbox or virtmanager you also need to route it in there. ofc you need to open ports in your isp router and point them at your LAN ip of your pc
[18:00] <mypainter> ?
[18:00] <keviv> EriC^^: okay, should I mount the boot partition too?
[18:01] <EriC^^> keviv: no, not yet
[18:01] <keviv> Okay
[18:01] <EriC^^> keviv: type "for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done"
[18:01] <mypainter> when I try to reinstall RUNIT I get E: Internal Error, No file name for runit:amd64
[18:02] <StumpDumb> very good, I give it a try...thx
[18:02] <keviv> EriC^^: okay
[18:03] <EriC^^> keviv: sudo chroot /mnt
[18:03] <EriC^^> then mount -a
[18:03] <mypainter> Do I need to reinstall ubuntu? I've only had it for a week
[18:03] <keviv> EriC^^: okay
[18:03] <EriC^^> keviv: grub-install
[18:03] <keviv> Ah
[18:03] <keviv> Woe
[18:03] <keviv> s/e/w
[18:05] <keviv> EriC^^: exited successfully
[18:05] <EriC^^> done?
[18:05] <keviv> Yeah
[18:05] <keviv> Reboot?
[18:06] <EriC^^> not yet
[18:06] <EriC^^> update-grub , see if ubuntu's vmlinuz is picked up
[18:06] <keviv> Okay, haha I shouldn't jump the gun so much
[18:06] <EriC^^> it's ok, it's not like this is the olympics or anything
[18:07] <EriC^^> :D
[18:07] <keviv> Haha
[18:07] <keviv> It's hanging with no output :(
[18:07] <StumpDumb> When I enter sudo !ppa-purge I get Warning:  Required ppa-name argument was not specified
[18:07] <StumpDumb> Usage: sudo ppa-purge [options] <ppa:ppaowner>[/ppaname]
[18:08] <EriC^^> StumpDumb: what are you trying to purge?
[18:08] <StumpDumb> Usage: sudo ppa-purge [options] <ppa : ppaowner>[/ppaname]
[18:08] <EriC^^> keviv: still hung?
[18:09] <StumpDumb> everytime I try to update I get en error "Failed to download repos info"
[18:09] <keviv> EriC^^: yeah. Possibly unrelated, but was it really supposed to be /mnt$i, not /mnt/$i?
[18:09] <EriC^^> StumpDumb: for which ppa?
[18:10] <EriC^^> keviv: yeah it was correct
[18:10] <keviv> Okay
[18:10] <StumpDumb> please dumb down your question
[18:10] <EriC^^> try ctrl+c and run update-grub again
[18:11] <EriC^^> StumpDumb: does it mention which repo is causing the issue?
[18:12] <StumpDumb> when I run sudo apt update an error shows as "E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/tualatrix/ppa/ubuntu xenial Release' does not have a Release file."
[18:12] <keviv> EriC^^: ok yeah it picked up the windows boot manager, and it mentioned an entry for EFI firmware configuration, but no mention about vmlinuz
[18:12] <StumpDumb> not on update just says check internet connection
[18:13] <EriC^^> StumpDumb: do you need that ppa? tualatrix?
[18:14] <EriC^^> keviv: ok, try ls /boot and see if you have any vmlinuz files there
[18:14] <keviv> EriC^^: oh, no actually
[18:15] <EriC^^> keviv: odd, try dpkg -l | grep linux-image
[18:15] <keviv> EriC^^: come to think of it, I meant to turn off the kernel purge option in boot-repair, but I think I forgot to
[18:15] <EriC^^> keviv: odd, try dpkg -l | awk '$1 ~ /ii/ && $2 /linux-image/'
[18:15] <EriC^^> try that instead
[18:15] <keviv> EriC^^: yeah nothing
[18:15] <keviv> Oh
[18:15] <EriC^^> keviv: typo, dpkg -l | awk '$1 ~ /ii/ && $2 ~ /linux-image/'
[18:16] <EriC^^> keviv: ok, type apt-get install --reinstall linux-generic
[18:16] <StumpDumb> I don't hava clue what tualatrix is for . . . looking on da web now
[18:18] <keviv> EriC^^: so I guess it does an update-grub during install, and it found vmlinuz and initrd
[18:18] <EriC^^> ok, great
[18:18] <EriC^^> type exit then try rebooting
[18:18] <keviv> EriC^^: glad you remember better than me that I'm still in a chroot lol
[18:19] <keviv> EriC^^: well it booted just fine, but there are plenty more entries then there were before
[18:20] <EriC^^> it's almost reflexive at this point
[18:20] <EriC^^> i think with a brain tumor i could still help in boot repairs by now
[18:20] <keviv> Which I guess isn't actually that jug a problem
[18:20] <keviv> Haha
[18:20] <keviv> *big
[18:21] <keviv> EriC^^: thanks so much :)
[18:21] <EriC^^> they're from boot-repair
[18:21] <EriC^^> it added a file in /etc/grub.d/ i think that picks up a lot of windows stuff
[18:21] <adroit_machine> EriC^^: How do I tell if the boot on my computer is    Uefi, efi or legacy?
[18:21] <EriC^^> keviv: no problem :) if you want to remove them let me know
[18:22] <EriC^^> adroit_machine: ls /sys/firmware/efi
[18:22] <keviv> EriC^^: nah it's okay, I usually have grub hidden anyway, so it'll prolly be until next time windows updates that I'll even see them
[18:22] <EriC^^> (btw uefi and efi is the same thing)
[18:22] <adroit_machine> ok EriC^^
[18:22] <EriC^^> keviv: alright :)
[18:22] <keviv> Now I can finally mess around with lisp yay
[18:23] <adroit_machine> EriC^^: It says on my terminal :"ls: cannot access /sys/firmware/efi: No such file or directory"
[18:23] <EriC^^> adroit_machine: ok, that means you're booted in legacy mode
[18:24] <adroit_machine> EriC^^: Is  efi better, if so how can I upgrade it?
[18:24] <StumpDumb> I do not believe I need Tualatrix....so how do I remove it?
[18:25] <EriC^^> it's up to you really, uefi is marginally faster to boot the os, like maybe 1sec tops
[18:25] <adroit_machine> ok EriC^^ I think i would   leave it as it is
[18:25] <EriC^^> StumpDumb: do you remember the ppa:..../.... stuff you used to add it?
[18:26] <V7> So ... I need some help with Qualcomm 3G / GPS Module and Ubuntu 16.04
[18:26] <StumpDumb> I think it was added via the Software Center
[18:26] <mypainter> `sudo dpkg-divert --local --rename --add /sbin/initctl`
[18:26] <mypainter> seemed to fix it
[18:26] <mypainter> not sure what it did
[18:28] <StumpDumb> Okay got it. Removed it from the Update's settings under "Other Software" (Unchecked it)...Thx
[18:28] <V7> Is that normal ? http://pastebin.com/htZsGycD
[18:28] <V7> I have X201 ThinkPad with GPS / 3G module
[18:28] <StumpDumb> I'll need to learn more about these PPAs
[18:28] <StumpDumb> Bye by
[18:29] <EriC^^> StumpDumb: ok, it's still on the systmm
[18:29] <EriC^^> *system though,
[18:29] <EriC^^> you won't get the error anymore, but you won't get upgrades that the maintainer releases for the software either
[18:29] <V7> I have Gobi 2000 Qualcomm
[18:32] <p2me> how can you pipe your password to "sudo -s"? something like "echo <my_password> | sudo -s"
[18:32] <mypainter> EriC^^ : what does the apt command "sudo dpkg-divert --local --rename --add /sbin/initctl" do?
[18:34] <dngom> Hello everybody
[18:34] <EriC^^> mypainter: no idea, my guess is that it tells dpkg that the file is locally installed by you and not to replace it
[18:34] <EriC^^> man dpkg-divert to checkwhat it does, brb
[18:34] <mypainter> No manual entry for dpkg-diver

[18:39] <neredsenvy> Has there been any new news about Unity8
[18:41] <simpsonc> Hi, is there anyone that is familiar with the i915 video driver issues with 16.04? I've attempted the fix at https://aboutsimon.com/blog/2016/07/20/Ubuntu-16.04-external-monitor-flickering-and-turning-off-on-intel-i915.html which did not correct the issue.
[18:42] <V7> So ... anyone knows smth. about /lib/udev/gpsd.hotplug: No such file or directory ?
[18:42] <V7> I've install gpsd, but no file ...
[18:46] <akik> simpsonc: you might try the newer mainline kernels too, 4.6.0 etc. stopped flickering in kubuntu 14.04 with intel gfx
[18:47] <simpsonc> akik: the last time that I tried to boot into 4.6, I reached the login screen, but then it immediately went black

[18:58] <OnkelTem> Hi all. I can't configure mouse speed/acceleration on Ubuntu 16.04. The default configuration forms doesn't work well, even with lowest speed settings mouse is hardly usable, so I tried to configure it with xset/xinput
[18:58] <OnkelTem> The problem is that I don't get how all those 3 (three) ways interrelate
[18:58] <OnkelTem> 1) ubuntu form 2) xset 3) xinput
[18:58] <OnkelTem> Any ideas?
[18:59] <OnkelTem> Specifically, when I change mouse speed in ubntu, xset and xinput properties don't change
[19:00] <bharath> Hi, I am new to ubuntu
[19:00] <avionic> howdy guys.  I installed a new hard drive and moved ubuntu to it.  How do I wipe my old hard drive so it will stop trying to boot from it?
[19:01] <bharath> Could any tell me how to intall web page editor in ubuntu
[19:02] <MonkeyDust> !html | bhuddah
[19:02] <MonkeyDust> !html | bhuddah
[19:02] <MonkeyDust> dang
[19:02] <OnkelTem> he parted
[19:05] <Aspium> Hi everyone!
[19:10] <avionic> howdy guys.  I installed a new hard drive and moved ubuntu to it.  How do I wipe my old hard drive so it will stop trying to boot from it?
[19:10] <SchrodingersScat> !grub | avionic
[19:10] <avionic> I didn't lose grub... Now it gives me 2 boot options
[19:11] <BluesKaj> avionic, no need to wipe the old hdd, just change the boot sequence in your UEFI/VBIOS
[19:11] <Bashing-om> avionic: How are you booting now ? - what is set in bios as the boot drive ? What is set in /etc/fstab to mount at boot ? .. what is set in grub as the booting device ?
[19:12] <BluesKaj> avionic,make sure you install grub in the new drive tho
[19:12] <avionic> Bashing- I had to hit F12 boot menu and change to the new hard drive...... it gives me option to boot from old or new now
[19:12] <avionic> Can I just wipe the old hard drive so it will stop asking?
[19:12] <avionic> I want to use it as backup hard drive anyway....
[19:13] <Bashing-om> avionic: Short abswer is no . you get to setup to boot the new hard drive - with no references to the old one .
[19:14] <BluesKaj> yes avionic, but like I said make sure grub is installed on the new drive, sudo grub-install /dev/dsX , X being the new drive designation
[19:14] <avionic> Ok the new one will boot because I did a fresh install of ubuntu with only the new hard drive... so how do i delete references to the old one?
[19:17] <Yuv1> hello i wanted to aks a question
[19:17] <Bashing-om> avionic: Check /etc/fstab .. and /boot/grub/grub.cfg; reference ' sudo blkid -c /dev/null -o list ' for the proper UUIDs .
[19:17] <SchrodingersScat> !ask | Yuv1
[19:17] <compdoc> !patience
[19:18] <avionic> # /boot was on /dev/sdb2 during installation
[19:18] <avionic> So I need to delete the UUID from the cfg for sdb2?
[19:18] <Yuv1> its not very related to ubuntu although ubuntu is my os at the moment, i wanted to ask if there is any privacy in the chat ? is our ip revealed to other user we chat with?
[19:19] <avionic> Yuv: yes your IP is revealed
[19:20] <OerHeks> Yuv1, yes, anyone can check your ip, if that is a problem, join #freenode ans ask for a cloak
[19:20] <OerHeks> * unless you have a ban-history, then they laugh at you
[19:20] <Bashing-om> avionic: the '#' character at the start of the line commnets out the lines such that the system will not parse it .. it is meaningless to the operating system . If ya want specific advise, show us the files and blkid outputs in pastebins .
[19:21] <Yuv1> thanks for the answers
[19:21] <avionic> I know what the # means... I just didn't want to past the UUID below it
[19:21] <SchrodingersScat> Yuv1: it's also publicly logged
[19:22] <avionic> so basically I need to edit the confg so that /deb/sdb2 UUID is removed?
[19:22] <Metamorphosis> hello. is it possible to remove ubuntu from a dualboot pc(the other being windows 7) and also remove the double bootlader? i mean so that it only shows windows like a normal windows pc
[19:23] <OerHeks> Metamorphosis, yes, windows dvd can repair boot. after that you can remove partitions and do with it what you want
[19:24] <Bashing-om> avionic: in essence that is correct . If you do not want the device 'sdb' to be seen, remove any reference to it .. that reference is usally a UUID . But make sure of the UUID/device identifiers !
[19:24] <akik> avionic: if your old hard drive had mbr partition table and you want to erase its boot loader, you can zero the first 446 bytes of the hard disk with dd
[19:25] <avionic> akik what's the best command for that please?
[19:25] <akik> avionic: remember that this is quite risky so you have to have the device name correct
[19:26] <d3ad7rack> I'm not finding the answer anywhere, but I've got a program that needs lsbcc installed and not finding a package for it anywhere
[19:26] <akik> avionic: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=446 count=1" (this applies only to the disk with mbr partition table)
[19:26] <d3ad7rack> using Ubuntu 16.04
[19:27] <SchrodingersScat> avionic: you may want to use a windows disk or however they recommend using their 'fixboot' or similar named thing.
[19:27] <avionic> akik: Can I just use "disk" and choose format & overwrite existing data with zeros?
[19:27] <SchrodingersScat> avionic: oops, that was for Metamorphosis , i got confused
[19:27] <akik> avionic: i don't know what disk is
[19:27] <avionic> akik: disks in the application menu
[19:28] <SchrodingersScat> d3ad7rack: which program?
[19:28] <akik> avionic: sure if you want to erase the whole disk. the 446 bytes only erases the boot loader from the beginning of the disk
[19:28] <BluesKaj> d3ad7rack, do you lsb-core, I see no reference to lsbcc in the package manager
[19:28] <BluesKaj> doy mean ^
[19:28] <d3ad7rack> SchrodingersScat: pyinstaller
[19:28] <avionic> akik: thanks I will try that
[19:29] <d3ad7rack> BluesKaj: I tried installing that, but it didn't install lsbcc with it :(
[19:29] <Metamorphosis> my windows came preinstalled on my laptop and it has its own recovery partition. how can i do it with some other windows DVD ? i do only have serial number for my preinstalled copy which is attached to the buttom of my laptop. i'm planning to install ubuntu on another machine but not this one.
[19:29] <d3ad7rack> BluesKaj: also tried lsb-release and that didn't as well
[19:29] <BluesKaj> lsbcc isn't listed in muon here d3ad7rack
[19:30] <d3ad7rack> BluesKaj: more than likely have to find source and compile it, if I'm thinking correctly then?
[19:32] <BluesKaj> d3ad7rack, seems so  http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man1/lsbcpp.1.html
[19:32] <d3ad7rack> k, ty for the ear and bouncing the question off of, BluesKaj :)
[19:32] <SchrodingersScat> d3ad7rack: I don't see this in the manual.

[20:00] <PugaBear> Hi. I just bought a new laptop that came with windows 7, and I'm trying to transfer my SSD with ubuntu 16.04 installed already into it, but its not booting into it. It just kinda sits there with an underscore typing symbol in the left corner. The ssd it came with works fine when I put it back in and the old ssd still works fine on the old laptop. What can I do to fix this?
[20:03] <BluesKaj> PugaBear, W7? does the laptop UEFI or BIOS , if it's BIOS just make sure your ssd is recognized there
[20:03] <mmcji> Hello.  I am looking for a graphics card recommendation for video editing and gaming on ubuntu 16:04.  What are some good recommendations for dedicated cards that have good support on linux, specifically Ubuntu.  Thank you.
[20:04] <BluesKaj> mmcji, depends on your budget , but most nvidia gpus are well supported on linux
[20:04] <tsquar3d> Hey all. So, I'm having issues with ubuntu an my new graphics card (Nvidia GTX 950). It seems to constantly crash and freeze while I am trying to play games -- especially steam.
[20:04] <tsquar3d> I've tried a variety of drivers -- the latest, the open source, older ones...
[20:04] <tsquar3d> It all results in sad times.
[20:06] <ExoUNX> ooook
[20:06] <ExoUNX> never thought I'd come here
[20:06] <ExoUNX> I'm a Fedora/Debian kind of person for my workstations
[20:06] <christian_> hey guys how is everyone doing today
[20:06] <BluesKaj> tsquar3d, how does the gpu behave otherwise when not playing games , on videos for example?
[20:06] <ExoUNX> though I'm thinking about using Ubuntu 16.04 for development
[20:06] <ExoUNX> christian_, good, yourself?
[20:06] <ExoUNX> sell me on Ubuntu
[20:07] <tsquar3d> BluesKaj: Well, for the most part. I've only noticed a few freezes otherwise.
[20:07] <ExoUNX> why should I use it?
[20:07] <silvian> ExoUNX: Because it's alright
[20:07] <silvian> its fine
[20:07] <silvian> its an ok distro :P
[20:07] <BluesKaj> tsquar3d, which driver is in use atm?
[20:08] <christian_> good cant complain just tinkering here on ubuntu running threw a few issues with a theme but cant complain very happy with my choice in distro wise
[20:08] <ExoUNX> lol
[20:08] <tsquar3d> BluesKaj: Well, none at the moment as I've borked xorg up so bad that I am just re-installing 16.04
[20:08] <silvian> I use RedHat and Fedora quite a lot for development as well.
[20:08] <tsquar3d> ExoUNX: No.
[20:08] <silvian> But I keep ubuntu on my home computers and laptops and it runs pretty stable
[20:08] <silvian> you just install it
[20:08] <ExoUNX> silvian, yah, Ubuntu 16.04 seems a bit more cutting-edge though
[20:08] <silvian> everything comes preinstalled and away you go.
[20:09] <silvian> It is its a very good desktop experience
[20:09] <ExoUNX> silvian, more so than Fedora
[20:09] <BluesKaj> tsquar3d, you don't normally need an xorg.conf file with the new gpus/drivers
[20:09] <silvian> last time I was with Debian it felt like i was so many packages behind everyone else
[20:09] <tsquar3d> BluesKaj: Right, it's a "rage quit" re-install, TBH.
[20:10] <silvian> Fedora is fine i quite like it for development because most of the package builds i do is for rpm, for RedHat, CentOS, OEL etc
[20:10] <silvian> so fedora helps me with that to test drive latest kernels and libs etc
[20:10] <silvian> But I think Ubuntu offers the best dektop experience personally I think. For laptops, dektop machines etc.
[20:10] <silvian> Very little hasle and the aplication store is pretty good too.
[20:11] <OerHeks> is there any ubuntu support question in this, silvian ?
[20:11] <silvian> that's why i quite like it ExoUNX. IT works out of the box with everything i get and easy one click to enable 3rd party support
[20:11] <silvian> no ExoUNX asked why use Ubuntu
[20:11] <silvian> to do the whole pitchsale thing
[20:12] <silvian> 3rd party drivers support i mean
[20:13] <christian_> is there a way i can get full root access to delete files in theme folder
[20:13] <tsquar3d> Isn't it kind of silly to ask linux users why you should use their version of linux?
[20:13] <tsquar3d> It's like asking why you should convert to judaism.
[20:13] <OerHeks> christian_, use sudo
[20:13] <getem> what is the best Linux diso for gaming
[20:13] <OerHeks> !sudo
[20:14] <OnkelTem> Hi. How to hide GRUB menu and only show it when a key (like Shift) is pressed?
[20:14] <laszlowaty> getem, every distro that can run steam :)
[20:14] <OnkelTem> This is my current config (/etc/default/grub): http://apaste.info/XHH
[20:14] <tsquar3d> getem: ... being that you're hanging out in #ubuntu...
[20:14] <ExoUNX> tsquar3d, I know
[20:14] <Metamorphosis> any ideas about partitioning this system and installing ubuntu? my windows is really important for me as i make money on it. http://img.susepaste.org/images/f5edb140.jpg
[20:14] <OnkelTem> So as you see I've set GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true but this didn't help
[20:14] <ExoUNX> tsquar3d, and I have my reasons against Ubuntu, but they're not a problem for what I want to use it for
[20:14] <getem> thanks
[20:15] <OerHeks> OnkelTem, did you update grub after that?
[20:15] <ExoUNX> and I like to hear reasons why

[20:15] <OnkelTem> OerHeks: sure
[20:15] <Ubuntu1604help> I have Ubuntu 16.04.1LTS installed full disk encryption with luks. Worked fine until I updated the nvidia driver, now lockes up when asked to enter passphrase. I can boot into now only using recovery mode. ... how can I fix this?
[20:15] <christian_> ty  ubot
[20:15] <christian_> ty oerheks
[20:15] <christian_> but is there a way to be root for unlimited acces to all folders to run in terminal
[20:16] <tsquar3d> christian_: sudo su
[20:16] <tsquar3d> !su
[20:16] <OerHeks> christian_, for the whole session: sudo -i
[20:17] <tsquar3d> Although sudo su is generally frowned upon.
[20:17] <dauer> hey, any mint 18 users here? curious about how it compares to f24
[20:17] <ExoUNX> Ubuntu1604help, you need to remove the nvidia drivers and re-install stock kernel and not use official nvidia drivers :D
[20:18] <Ubuntu1604help> I used the additional drivers in the ppa  ?
[20:18] <Ubuntu1604help> They are not offical Nvidia I thought?
[20:19] <OerHeks> OnkelTem, why 'GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true'  in your grub?
[20:19] <OnkelTem> OerHeks: I don't know, that is random (I've found this recommendation in the Internet and put there. It didn't help anyway)
[20:19] <CrossDuck> ?
[20:19] <christian_> oerheks is there another way besides using terminal to delete files ? im a windows head i did enjoy the simplicity of right click delete  but im still learning bare with me ....
[20:19] <OnkelTem> OerHeks: i.e. it doesn't work w/o it either
[20:20] <OerHeks> christian_, read the links that are given, you can start a gui program like nautilus as root to do that.
[20:21] <OnkelTem> OerHeks: I'm gonna comment out the line 8 and instead give a try to 7th
[20:22] <OerHeks> uhh, i didn't see that, i have no comment there.
[20:22] <OerHeks> that would be your culprit i guess
[20:22] <Ubuntu1604help> Anyone have an idea on this issue?
[20:22] <laszlowaty> uh I just booted hdd
[20:22] <laszlowaty> I can't believe our drivers used to be that slow :)
[20:23] <laszlowaty> drives*
[20:23] <laszlowaty> :P
[20:25] <SupaYoshi> does anyone know what kind of cnnector this ssd is?

[20:26] <chaene> hi I'm trying to compile kde partition manager 2 alpha version and I get an error when running cmake
[20:26] <chaene> I think it is a missing package but I can't figure out which one.
[20:27] <Bashing-om> Ubuntu1604help: I will take a stab at this ; show me ' lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D' | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . see where we go from there .
[20:27] <christian_> gksu nautilus i used thankyou
[20:27] <laszlowaty> chaene, why do you need to compile it?
[20:27] <chaene> because the verion which is included in 16.04 has a bug
[20:27] <OerHeks> christian_, now you know why, sudo nautilus can ruin something.
[20:27] <chaene> the bug has been reported to be fixed in the newest alpha
[20:28] <laszlowaty> chaene, show me the log
[20:28] <chaene> this is the error http://paste.ubuntu.com/23129573/
[20:29] <laszlowaty> chaene, the error is rather clear. Did you read it?
[20:29] <chaene> lasylowaty: it is a fresh install of 16.04
[20:29] <christian_> very much so i had a mac theme that wasnt needed anymore but last but not least i have had a few issues with the launcher... i click it and sometimes it opens up the menu and sometimes not ...
[20:29] <chaene> yes I read it but I don't understand it
[20:30] <christian_> compiz is installed i notice if i turn off wobble windows it works again..
[20:30] <chaene> laszlowaty: I'm not familiar with qmake
[20:31] <u1604ltshelp> someone must know how to fix this thing.
[20:31] <u1604ltshelp> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset"   is that right ?or should nomodeset be first ?
[20:33] <laszlowaty> chaene, what command did you use?
[20:33] <chaene> cmake ..
[20:33] <laszlowaty> why did you pass '..'?
[20:34] <chaene> laszlowaty, because I'm in the build subirctory and the CMakeList.txt is one folder above
[20:34] <laszlowaty> oh
[20:35] <laszlowaty> chaene, can you show CMakeList.txt?
[20:35] <OnkelTem> OerHeks: yep, it works now. So I've set both HIDDEN and usual TIMEOUT to 0.
[20:36] <chaene> laszlowaty, http://paste.ubuntu.com/23129597/
[20:37] <antiMOSSAD> Reading mind-----stop.
[20:37] <Surfer2010> /tmp/camd.socket   (No such file or directory); Do you have OSCam running?   <-- what does this mean?
[20:38] <OnkelTem> There is one more issue with 16.04 startup: the splash screen appears just for 1-2 seconds and then it's replaced by the black screen. How to make it (splash screen) visiable until X starts?
[20:38] <OnkelTem> visible*
[20:38] <laszlowaty> chaene, what is output of command 'qmake-qt5' from terminal?
[20:41] <chaene> laszlowaty, that is indeed the problem it does not find it even though apt-get tells me it is installed.
[20:41] <laszlowaty> ok, hmm
[20:42] <laszlowaty> chaene, locate "qmake-qt5" | nc termbin.com 9999
[20:42] <chaene> laszlowaty, it is installed as just qmake
[20:43] <OerHeks> OnkelTem, i think by setting grub grfx in the correct resolution 1920x1080 something?
[20:43] <laszlowaty> chaene, sec
[20:43] <OerHeks> so it does not switch
[20:43] <OnkelTem> OerHeks: that makes sems, I'll try and write back thank you!
[20:43] <OnkelTem> sense* :)
[20:43] <OnkelTem> keyboard is crap...
[20:44] <laszlowaty> chaene, you can try to make a script
[20:45] <laszlowaty> chaene, echo "qmake $*" > qmake-qt5 && chmod 600 qmake-qt5
[20:46] <laszlowaty> add it to your path by editing .bashrc and writing in the last line: export PATH=$PATH:<location of directory with file>
[20:46] <laszlowaty> restart terminal
[20:48] <OnkelTem> OerHeks: I've set it to native 1280x1024th of the monitor. Didn't help.
[20:50] <chaene> laszlowaty exact same error as initally
[20:51] <energizer> I have a couple monitors at different resolutions. In "Displays", there's an option to "Scale window contents to match display with largest/smallest controls".
[20:51] <chaene> laszlowaty, oh no sorry it is slightly different.
[20:51] <energizer> But I want to scale window contents to match the display that the window is on, of course.
[20:51] <mypainter> Does clamscan mark MONO2.0's MonoPosixHelper-x86_64.dll as installed using wine from apt install wine and then wine-tricks as a trojan for other people too?
[20:51] <energizer> Is there a way to do that?
[20:52] <roswuar> hola
[20:52] <laszlowaty> chaene, show me
[20:53] <chaene> laszlowaty, I think I'm giving up on this. Thanks for your help. The error is like this now: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23129638/ not really helpful.
[20:54] <laszlowaty> damn :)
[20:55] <ExoUNX> looks like I'll be trying kubuntu
