[14:29] <regedit_> is it safe or a terrible idea to 1) Ctrl+Z a fsck command 2) unplug the drive 3) relocate (need to get going someplace) 4) replug the drive 5) fg the fsck command back into action?
[14:30] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: what is pacmd?
[14:30] <wileee> regedit_, stopping a fsck is a bad idea, why would you ask this?
[14:30] <baizon> SlaveOfJesus: This tool can be used to introspect or reconfigure a running PulseAudio sound server during runtime. It connects to the sound server and offers a simple live shell that can be used to enter the commands also understood in the default.pa configuration scripts.
[14:30] <SlaveOfJesus> is it accessible trough cli or gui baizon ?
[14:30] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: i dont use pulseaudio server
[14:31] <baizon> SlaveOfJesus: well then you can use alsamixer
[14:31] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: yep im using
[14:31] <wileee> regedit_, I you want to travel.
[14:31] <wileee> ah*
[14:31] <regedit_> wileee: because i reeeally need to get going, and this drive http://paste.ubuntu.com/12969898/ is up to like block 28311617...
[14:31] <regedit_> yeah
[14:32] <baizon> SlaveOfJesus: aplay -l
[14:32] <EriC^^> regedit_: i dont know about the technicalities but it sounds like a horrible idea
[14:32] <baizon> SlaveOfJesus: there you can see your devices and which is used
[14:32] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: yep
[14:32] <EriC^^> also ctrl+z doesn't stop the fsck regedit_
[14:32] <regedit_> EriC^^: I suspected so...
[14:32] <wileee> regedit_, I don't think anyone with a conscious will say do it is all, bad idea especially if no backups.
[14:33] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: everything seems fien
[14:33] <regedit_> EriC^^: oh? does it not freeze the process?
[14:33] <SlaveOfJesus> fine
[14:33] <EriC^^> regedit_: no it would continue in the background
[14:33] <thecyclone> SlaveOfJesus: tried. Not working :(
[14:33] <EriC^^> just not in the foreground of the shell i think
[14:33] <regedit_> ah
[14:33] <EriC^^> regedit_: try sleep 10, press ctrl+z, go back after 10 secs
[14:33] <wileee> EriC^^, Ah thanks I thought that was a stop, my bad regedit_  in general I think it is a bad idea to stop a fsck is all.
[14:33] <EriC^^> it'll say done
[14:33] <SlaveOfJesus> thecyclone:  why your wireless suddenly doesnt work/
[14:34] <regedit_> EriC^^: i see
[14:34] <regedit_> oh now it's saying "Running additional passes to resolve blocks claimed by more than one inode..."
[14:34] <regedit_> it seems to be finding some of those
[14:34] <regedit_> anyway, does this mean its almost done?
[14:35] <wileee> regedit_, Are you backed up?
[14:35] <regedit_> wileee: nope. But it's an Ubuntu installation i dont care for much, it would just be annoying to have to reformat all over again...
[14:35] <baizon> SlaveOfJesus: tried to set the default sound card within alsamixeR?
[14:35] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: suddenly sound started working on youtube :D i did nothing
[14:36] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: i have only one
[14:36] <wileee> regedit_, Sure, just curious is all, hope it all goes well. ;)
[14:36] <baizon> SlaveOfJesus: o lol :P
[14:36] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: mistery
[14:36] <baizon> i count it as i solved it :D
[14:36] <netiul> is it possible to replace libxml2 with version 2.9 on ubuntu precise? precise has by default 2.7, but php 7 needs libxml2 2.9
[14:36] <regedit_> wileee: np thanks
[14:36] <jpds> netiul: 12.04 doesn't even have php7.
[14:37] <netiul> jpds, i know, i'm installing nightly
[14:37] <jpds> netiul: Just go with 14.04
[14:37] <avis> how is ubuntu 15.10 ?
[14:38] <heber> it is nice

[14:38] <wileee> avis, seems alright.
[14:38] <baizon> SlaveOfJesus: install pulseaudio?
[14:38] <netiul> jpds, i want it running on server, which is running on 12.04
[14:39] <jpds> netiul: Can you upgrade or run a virtual machine?
[14:39] <netiul> jpds, on my dev machine i got php7 working though, which is 14.04
[14:39] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: hmm
[14:39] <SlaveOfJesus> baizon: i think its kernel problem
[14:40] <netiul> jpds, i really want to see how our web application is running on a real server with php7, so.. :)

[14:42] <netiul> jpds, it's not a problem to get in php7 running, except i dont get it running on the production webserver which runs 12.04

[14:43] <netiul> baizon, i know, and i can compile i myself
[14:43] <jayjo> is there a way to see how I installed a package a while ago? I need to duplicate a java installation on another machine and want to mimic the process
[14:44] <baizon> jayjo: take a look at .bash_history
[14:45] <heber> hi
[14:45] <heber> hi
[14:45] <tmsbrg> jayjo: Ubuntu Software Center seems to remember how you installed packaged, even if you installed with apt-get. There's probably something hidden around
[14:45] <tmsbrg> packages*
[14:45] <jayjo> I did install with apt-get
[14:46] <tmsbrg> you could check its history
[14:46] <jpds> jayjo: /var/log/apt/
[14:46] <jophish> I've just updated to 15.10 and the icons on the unity launcher jump onto the screen when they are launched or want attention, what can I do to stop this?
[14:47] <wileee> jophish, Slight animation?
[14:47] <jayjo> /var/log/apt/ seems close to what I want, but the dates are too recent
[14:47] <jophish> wileee: yeah
[14:47] <jophish> when gnome-terminal is launched for example the icon "peeks" onto the screen
[14:48] <wileee> jophish, I suspect the unity tweak tool has a tick for it if not checkput compizconfig settings manager both need installing.
[14:48] <motaka2> hello when using flash to boot, in BIOS setting which USB option should I choose?
[14:49] <wileee> motaka2, The one that boots the usb, how would we know?
[14:50] <jophish> wileee: the tweak tool had it
[14:50] <jophish> thanks!
[14:50] <wileee> motaka2, There is a per boot option on computers to do this outside the bios
[14:50] <wileee> jophish, Cool, enjoy/
[14:51] <motaka2> wileee: there USB FDD , usb ZIP, usb CDROM usb hdd,  whuch one?
[14:51] <heber> channel for java ?
[14:52] <cfhowlett> heber, #java      surprise.
[14:52] <heber> thanks cfhowlett
[14:52] <wileee> motaka2, the one that boots, what is it on, which one if at all? I never use the bios on this, you will have to try till it works maybe.
[14:53] <cfhowlett> happy2help!
[14:53] <motaka2> wileee: I dont get you
[14:54] <OerHeks> motaka2, how about usb-cdrom ? if that does not work, usb-hdd ?
[14:54] <heber> cfhowlett,can't join #java
[14:54] <cfhowlett> !register | heber,
[14:55] <motaka2> OerHeks: Are you sure, my flash memory with iso ubuntu is in one of usb ports
[14:55] <wileee> motaka2, Is the bios showing a usb flash, some don't show if not seen I believe. I'm not sure what is not understood here. Look up per session boot, you can quickly try all usb's shown to see which boots. You have a strange list.with USB in front of every choice. does it really read this way?
[14:56] <OerHeks> motaka2, i have no such bios, but the choises seems logical. how did you do it last time?
[14:56] <motaka2> yes wileee
[14:56] <wileee> cool
[14:56] <Yuken> I currently use a private key in PuTTY, Windows 10, to connect to a machine. Would I be able to use this PuTTY generated key in Ubuntu, and if so, how?
[14:56] <OerHeks> i have to set usb in 2 places, bootpriority and hdd priority.
[14:56] <motaka2> OerHeks: I used a CDROM and not a usb CDROM but this time I have the iso on a flash memory
[14:59] <millerti> How do I report an Ubuntu bug?  When I click "Report a bug" in Launchpad, it just takes me to instructions, and if I select the "create account" link, it just hangs.
[15:00] <motaka2> OerHeks: wileee I do this when I turn on the pc i keep presing delete and then from a blue page called CMOS setup utility I go to advance bios feature and I set firdt boot device to one of those, am I wrong ?
[15:00] <truthseeker1990> Hey, I just installed Ubuntu with my windows 10. Different partitions. But I can't access internet on my Ubuntu even though its connected to the network. It should work fine but its not. Any idea why?
[15:01] <truthseeker1990> Am not even able to ping anything
[15:01] <OerHeks> motaka2, yes, but your biosscreen can be different from mine, but that sounds logical
[15:01] <motaka2> OerHeks: :( I am really becomin tired
[15:01] <OerHeks> try some setting, it does not wreck your pc
[15:02] <truthseeker1990> Anybody has faced the same thing as me??
[15:02] <nglpx1> truthseeker1990, are you connected to the internal lan?
[15:03] <truthseeker1990> Yes definitely. Wirelessly. But it works fine in windows and on my phone.
[15:03] <truthseeker1990> I have a realtek wireless card
[15:04] <nglpx1> truthseeker1990, what is in "sudo route -n"?
[15:04] <wileee> motaka2, You are not understanding the outside the bios boot choice, on my computer if I hit f12 I think I get a list like the bios for booting and can choose with the arrow keys the boot.
[15:04] <motaka2> wileee: I found the solution thank you
[15:04] <wileee> motaka2, the bios or this works, is all, one is faster and easier for some, cool fixed, enjoy.
[15:05] <truthseeker1990> Just 2 entries. A) desyination <IP_ADDRESS> gateway <IP_ADDRESS> ifave wlan0 B) dest. <IP_ADDRESS> gateway <IP_ADDRESS> ifave wlan0
[15:05] <motaka2> wileee: I selected use ubuntu without installing and now it is locked on a page with ubuntu in the middle and none of the down circles work
[15:05] <motaka2> is that normal?
[15:06] <wileee> truthseeker1990, Google that exact card, from it's info in lspci on the release you have, share that hardware with us RT card can be an issue is all.
[15:06] <nglpx1> truthseeker1990, can you ping <IP_ADDRESS>?

[15:07] <truthseeker1990> Ping fails. Times out.
[15:07] <truthseeker1990> How do I use lspci??
[15:07] <truthseeker1990> So it can even ping default gateway
[15:07] <truthseeker1990> *cant
[15:07] <motaka2> wileee: nothin happens when I hit esc
[15:07] <TurBoss>  I need the libavcodec56 but there is no candidate version ?
[15:08] <TurBoss> what this means?
[15:08] <TurBoss> upgraded to 15.10 today broked some thins :D
[15:08] <wileee> motaka2, Any failure like this on my own I would check the md5sums and confirm iso and loaded usb is good probably, not really ever have issue is all, running all intel.
[15:08] <nglpx1> truthseeker1990, can you ping yourself?
[15:09] <motaka2> wileee: I really dont understand you
[15:09] <wileee> !md5sum | motaka2 okay if you don't but say what is confusing
[15:09] <truthseeker1990> Yes can ping myself. Wireless card is Realtek wireless card RTL8723BE
[15:10] <truthseeker1990> From a Google search looks like the card has some issues with Ubuntu 14.04
[15:10] <motaka2> wileee: I restarted , but I cant select any option from installer boot menu
[15:10] <wileee> motaka2, Take a look at the bots message on checking the iso and your usb for a good hash sum
[15:10] <amitd26> hi

[15:12] <jpds> amitd26: Just blame the cat
[15:12] <amitd26> jpds: it is a keyboard problem s key sometimes misbehaves
[15:13] <wileee> motaka2, Nothing personal, I just have a limited calm help attitude, better you are helped with that in place.
[15:13] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, still there
[15:13] <chotaz`w> ?
[15:13] <Panda11> How do I change the FTP port on vsftpd?
[15:13] <nglpx1> chotaz`w, ok
[15:13] <motaka2> wileee: the pages you sent me to check the hash need a terminal. I dont have any linux to use it's terminal. I am chating with you from win vista
[15:14] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, sorry, I ahd a major connection problem, I'm still unable to normally boot into 4.2, but I'm now at a root shell via recovery
[15:14] <regedit_> so i plug in my recently-fsck-ed drive back into its machine, booting up brings me to a grub shell. Was i supposed to do anything to make sure it resumes its normal grub booting?
[15:14] <nglpx1> chotaz`w, so the issue is in loading the gui?
[15:15] <wileee> regedit_, should not change the boot in a perfect world
[15:15] <truthseeker1990> How do I got clone and I stall git when I have no internet??
[15:15] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, without using recovery mode, it just asks for my disk encryption key and then hangs after static it successfully setup the filesystem.
[15:15] <regedit_> herm... well what can i do from a grub shell to boot the present ubuntu OS?
[15:15] <regedit_> then i can maybe run update-grub or something
[15:16] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, however, if I guet to the recovery mode menu and then select "Normal boot" it carries on and actually manages to properly boot with 4.2
[15:16] <chotaz`w> *after stating
[15:16] <wileee> regedit_, I would grab supergrub and see if it boots it, however you can manually boot in
[15:17] <TurBoss>  I need the libavcodec56 but there is no candidate version ?
[15:17] <TurBoss> what can i do?
[15:17] <Guest36992> i was using ubuntu15.04, after upgrading to ubuntu15.10, it works fine after first install but when i reboot system, it fails to boot and stuck just after verdor logo
[15:17] <wileee> regedit_, A live boot might be where you will need to gather info if broken, and grub can be fixed from a chroot if needed. Try all kernels in grub as well.
[15:18] <Guest36992> same issue is coming when i tried with xubuntu. the problem seems with kernel 4.0 and above.
 how do I got clone etc if I don't have internet
[15:18] <chotaz`w> Guest36992, are you using any type of disk encryption, by any chance? I'm having the exact same problem. Also.. have you tried booting to a different kernel other than 4.2?
[15:18] <nglpx1> chotaz`w, which encryption software are you using?
[15:19] <ioria> !info libavcodec56 utopic
[15:19] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, cryptsetup (?)
[15:19] <nglpx1> truthseeker1990, what question is?
[15:19] <Guest36992> chotaz`w, yes i tried fedora 22 also. same issue was coming with this also with kernel 4 and above. when i boot in kernel 3.19, it working fine
[15:19] <wileee> regedit_, check booting from grub here, https://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/776643-how-to-rescue-a-non-booting-grub-2-on-linux/
[15:19] <ioria> TurBoss, i  think is for utopic, that is  EOL
[15:20] <TurBoss> :(
[15:20] <TurBoss> thx
[15:20] <nglpx1> chotaz`w, maybe the issue is in the sequence of service called at boot in normal mode
[15:20] <truthseeker1990> The link you mentioned told me to download new drivers. But how to download without internwt
[15:20] <ioria> !info libavcodec56 vivid
[15:20] <ioria> TurBoss, no,also for vivid
[15:21] <nglpx1> truthseeker1990, but you told you are under the 4.2 kernel now..
[15:21] <TurBoss> !info libavcodec56 wily
[15:21] <ioria> TurBoss, wily,nope
[15:21] <TurBoss> hehe
[15:21] <wileee> truthseeker1990, No ethernet?
[15:22] <regedit_> wileee: ok thanks
[15:22] <chotaz`w> Guest36992, I guess we're on the same boat, I'm still trying to figure out how to solve this. Have you tried booting 4.2 in recovery mode and then selecting "Normal boot" from there? It works for me to get kernel 4.2 booting.
[15:23] <wileee> regedit_, hope all that helps, different options, hopefully just needs this fixed.
[15:23] <ioria> TurBoss, but see this https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/wily/+package/libavcodec56
[15:23] <TurBoss> ioria: what does that mean?
[15:24] <Guest36992> chotaz`w, yes i tried but nothing happed. it just stuck. when i tried in fedora i got error, "failed to find cpu0 device node erro"
[15:24] <ioria> TurBoss, no clue... seemsfor i386
[15:24] <TurBoss> :(
[15:24] <teward> ioria: TurBoss: according to the package history it looks like it was deleted in Wily because ffmpeg replaced it

[15:25] <ioria> teward, thanx
[15:25] <motaka2> hello I burned an iso on my flash now when I boot the keyboard in installer boot menu doesnt work. what should I do ?
[15:25] <nglpx1> chotaz`w, you use systemd?
[15:25] <teward> TurBoss: if a package is depending on libav packages, there will be breakage in wily, so whoever made the package needs to update the package for ffmpeg transition
[15:25] <TurBoss> i use ffmpeg for opencv stuff
[15:25] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, I use whatever comes bundled by default with ubuntu(I'm on ubuntu-mate btw)
[15:26] <teward> TurBoss: ffmpeg should have everything then, why do you need libavcodec56 ?
[15:26] <TurBoss> well thx
[15:26] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, i think that's a "yes" x)
[15:26] <ioria> TurBoss, soyou shouldn't  need   libavcodec56 ....
[15:26] <Guest36992> motaka2, try to reboot again, sometimes it fails to detect keyboard. i have also face this prob
[15:26] <motaka2> Guest36992: thx
[15:27] <TurBoss> ioria, teward thx will investigate
[15:27] <ioria> TurBoss, ok
[15:28] <Guest36992> chotaz`w, i think this prob is with 4 series kernel. can u pls tell is it possible to install ubuntu 15.10 and use 3 series kernel
[15:29] <nglpx1> chotaz`w, Systemd starts the services parallel, maybe this create the problem
[15:29] <p4trix> When I try to run Ubuntu from a pendrive, after the option settings, the screen just turns off and the computer freezes. Any Ideas? Motherboard or Hardware incompatibilities?
[15:30] <chotaz`w> Guest36992, I still have 3.19 because I upgraded from the terminal and did not do a fresh install, but I'm guessing a fresh install would come only with 4.2, but if you ahve access to a terminal and internet access you could easuily throw 3.19 in there ;)
[15:30] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, wouldnt make sense to assume that I would have the same problems with 3.19 then? since I would still be using systemd anyway?
[15:31] <Guest36992> chotaz`w, i just fresh installed ubuntu 15.04. with terminal upgrade, kernel will not be upgraded? also with kernel 3.19, ubuntu 15.10 will work fine? sorry i dont have too much idea about it.
[15:32] <chotaz`w> Guest36992, it works for me just fine booting 15.10 with 3.19 kernel
[15:33] <Guest36992> chotaz`w, thanks. can u pls tell how to upgrade to 15.10 from terminal
[15:33] <chotaz`w> do-release-upgrade
[15:34] <Guest36992> chotaz`w, thanks a lot. ubuntu guys are too supportive :)

[15:37] <baizon> aarobc: in development
[15:37] <baizon> aarobc: it can be used if youre using the open source drivers

[15:39] <drmagoo> Hi, I think that I have broken my system. I was trying to upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 ( on my way to 15.10, I have some issues with X/my graphicscard and was hopeing that a later version might solve that) But now after a reported succesful upgrade to 14.10 the system hangs at boot. I get as far as the part where you type in the password for the encrypted lvm's I've setup up. But I cant type anything into the box and the box disapears aft
[15:40] <auronandace> drmagoo: you realise to get to 15.10 you'll have to upgrade through 15.04 as well? seriously, it is much easier just installing 15.10 fresh

[15:44] <millerti> lotuspsychje: Here's what I posted in the forums:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2300507
[15:44] <drmagoo> auronandace: I didnt dare to, with the way I've setup the system. got 3 mdadm raids with encrypted lvms on them. didnt know how to export that
[15:44] <drmagoo> BluesKaj: I know, but I need to go thru 14.10 to get to 15.04
[15:45] <yura> yura1542!
[15:45] <millerti> lotuspsychje: Basically, when I try to start nfs server, I get an error complaining about nfsd.
[15:45] <lotuspsychje> !nfs | millerti have to go through this?
[15:45] <kubast2> nfsd = nfs daemon
[15:45] <millerti> lotuspsychje: Oh, I did all that.
[15:46] <BluesKaj> drmagoo, think it's best you backup your data and do a fresh install
[15:47] <millerti> lotuspsychje: So what if I've started with a clean install of 15.10, and I followed the instructions, and I'm still getting errors when trying to start the service?
[15:47] <lotuspsychje> millerti: have you tryed this on LTS?
[15:47] <drmagoo> BluesKaj: I cant even get that far, even / is a raid+lvm
[15:48] <millerti> lotuspsychje: I had LTS before.  It was fine.  Upgrading to 15.10 was apparently a huge mistake.
[15:48] <chotaz`w> nglpx1, yes, the crypted partition is /root, /boot being on a separate, non-ecnrypted partition, the standard "Luks on LVM" setup I guess
[15:48] <lotuspsychje> millerti: you might file a bug perhaps? or go to stable LTS? im not the nfs expert myself sorry
[15:48] <millerti> What floors me is that Ubuntu Server would be released with broken NFS support.
[15:48] <lotuspsychje> millerti: or re-ask once in a while with your link
[15:48] <millerti> Yeah, I filed a bug report.  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/1510137
[15:49] <motaka2> wileee: I checked the flash with another system and it worked finr
[15:49] <lotuspsychje> millerti: you running on 15.10 server?
[15:49] <millerti> But that'll take an eternity to get looked at.  I've had bugs sit ignored for years in Launchpad.
[15:49] <millerti> Yes, this is 15.10 server.
[15:49] <lotuspsychje> millerti: for a stable server experience we would reccomend LTS mate
[15:49] <BluesKaj> drmagoo,if you're on 14.04LTS I would wait until 16.04LTS is ready, that's what I'm doing.
[15:50] <jpds> Running LTS on the metal, make a VM for anything else
[15:50] <kubast2> or use debian stable/centos ,through lts ubuntu should also do fine.
[15:50] <millerti> The reason I decided to upgrade from the LTS is that there were just too damn many out-dated and broken packages.  For instance, it has Ruby 1.9, and gtkwave always crashes on start.
[15:50] <lotuspsychje> !latest | millerti
[15:50] <drmagoo> BluesKaj: I really appreciate the inout, but I still need to get into the system to recover something atleast.. As it sits now I cant
[15:51] <BluesKaj> there's nothing appealing or better about 15.10 than 14.04 , beleive me I've been testing 15.10 for a while and it's still buggy
[15:51] <ioria> millerti, i just  installed  and running   on  15.10 ...
[15:51] <lotuspsychje> BluesKaj: +1
[15:51] <nglpx1> chotaz`w, try this: http://www.serverlab.ca/tutorials/linux/administration-linux/removing-systemd-from-ubuntu-15-2/
[15:52] <millerti> ioria: Were you able to get nfs server working?
[15:52] <ioria> millerti, yes
[15:52] <lotuspsychje> ioria, BluesKaj discuss we miss you @discuss
[15:52] <ioria> ok
[15:53] <drmagoo> BluesKaj: Either way, i need to recover this system before I can even start thinking about where I am going =)
[15:53] <ioria> millerti, http://paste.ubuntu.com/12970846/
[15:53] <ghostcube> millerti: you tried this? systemctl status nfs-server.service
[15:56] <baba123> hoi
[15:56] <BluesKaj> drmagoo, ok which gpu do you have ?
[15:56] <drmagoo> BluesKaj: nvidia gtx960
[15:57] <OerHeks> motaka2, on what type/brand laptop/machine is this, exactly ?
[15:57] <veronika> HEY
[15:58] <motaka2> OerHeks: It is on a machine, a computer with a case
[15:58] <poli> hello all! My upgrade from 15.04 to 15.10 failed and I finished it with a apt-get -f install. When booting the new 4.2 kernel I don't get any wireless working, not only  my Atheros AR9287 but lso my Logitech mouse dongle, which is recognized in lspci but just does not work. Booting with the old 3.19 kernel works as expected. Any clues on what I could do?
[15:58] <estudiante> hola a todos
[15:58] <lotuspsychje> !es | estudiante
[15:59] <ghostcube> isnt it possible to mount the lvms from an live cd for drmagoo?
[15:59] <OerHeks> motaka2, you are very sparse with information, sometimes avoiding answers for some time now. and demand help? why do you do it like this?
[16:00] <millerti> What does this error mean and how can I fix it?   modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:578 kmod_search_moddep() could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/3.13.0-66-generic/modules.dep.bin'
[16:00] <kubast2> how to turn off some unity eye candy?
[16:00] <motaka2> OerHeks: Please tell me what you want exaactely maybe my english is not good
[16:00] <millerti> That may be the root of my problems.
[16:01] <estudiante> some cursed in the chat
[16:01] <kubast2> !opensssh
[16:01] <drmagoo> I've gotten into the grub-recoveryt mode. How can I mount / as rw, but at the same time not mount everything in fstab (it seems to hang when I choose this option)
[16:01] <ioria> millerti, /3.13.0-66  ?
[16:01] <millerti> ioria: Yeah.
[16:01] <kubast2> How to install openssh server on ubuntu ?
[16:01] <lotuspsychje> poli: check your logs for anything wifi related, might need a linux-firmware
[16:01] <Pici> kubast2: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[16:01] <kubast2> oh
[16:01] <millerti> ioria: Is that the wrong kernel version?
[16:01] <kubast2> -server
[16:01] <poli> kubast2: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[16:01] <ioria> millerti,  you  are 15.10 ?
[16:02] <millerti> ioria: Yes.
[16:02] <ghostcube> wrong kernel millerti
[16:02] <ioria> millerti,  oh,yeah very  wrong
[16:02] <millerti> What the hell.
[16:02] <poli> lotuspsychje: thanks
[16:02] <ghostcube> you should have any 4.x
[16:02] <millerti> Ok, so how do I get the right kernel installed?
[16:02] <ioria> millerti, 4.2.0-16-generic
[16:03] <ghostcube> strange suggestion but could you check your sources?
[16:03] <ghostcube> maybe anything went wrong
[16:03] <lotuspsychje> poli: could be that atheros firmware malfunctioning, check your current@ sudo lshw -C net work behind driver=
[16:03] <ioria> !info linux-generic
[16:03] <millerti> I think the stupid installer installed everything but messed up the boot
[16:04] <millerti> Ubuntu Server has problems installing to /dev/sdb1.  That really confused the heck out of the installer, in fact.
[16:04] <motaka2> 	wileee: I checked the flash with another system and it worked finr
[16:05] <drmagoo> I've gotten into the grub-recoveryt mode. How can I mount / as rw, but at the same time not mount everything in fstab (it seems to hang when I choose this option)
[16:05] <millerti> I wonder what else the installer screwed up.
[16:05] <ioria> brb
[16:05] <bs0d> Hello
[16:06] <millerti> The stuid thing never installed the kernel!
[16:06] <bs0d> I need to install a driver for the chipset http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201411-16196/   Where can I get one?
[16:07] <lotuspsychje> bs0d: intel wireless should be working out of the box normally, wich ubuntu version?
[16:10] <bs0d> lotuspsychje 14.04 LTS
[16:10] <lotuspsychje> bs0d: your system is installed already?
[16:10] <bs0d> wireless indeed works out of the box, HDMI output does not work :( That's why I need drivers
[16:10] <bs0d> yes, it is installed
[16:11] <lotuspsychje> bs0d: for wich device/chipset do you still need a driver?
[16:11] <poli> lotuspsychje: apt-get upgrade to the newest kernel must have re-generated the ramdisk and solved all my issues. Now it is time to try to get NVidia working. Thanks.
[16:11] <NicholasCage> clear
[16:12] <NicholasCage> Anyone who can recommend some colors for bash?
[16:12] <lotuspsychje> NicholasCage: there is a nice terminal script 'colorized' that has nice theme colors
[16:13] <lotuspsychje> NicholasCage: solarized sorry: http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized
[16:14] <millerti> Well, GOSH.  That fixed my problems!
[16:14] <jnoob22> hi... I'd like to do something like so: sudo su - && cd /myDir ... I notice when I do sudo su - or sudo -i , it simply makes me root and puts me in the /root homedir ... is there a way to chain commands here?
[16:14] <lotuspsychje> !yay | millerti tell us how you fixxed?
[16:15] <jnoob22> ideally, I'd like to create an alias for this whole thing
[16:15] <lotuspsychje> poli: wich nvidia card?
[16:15] <poli> lotuspsychje:     product: GT218M [GeForce 310M]
[16:16] <ghostcube> millerti: so it works?
[16:16] <lotuspsychje> poli: wich drivers show up your additional drivers list?
[16:16] <jnoob22> so, essentially, I'd like to become the user and then change directory and still be the user.
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> jnoob22: maybe      sudo sh -c "cd /myDir"
[16:17] <jnoob22> i think i tried something similar, ActionParsnip but not quite... let's see ...
[16:17] <drmagoo> where does lvm save its settings?
[16:17] <poli> lotuspsychje: NVIDIA legacy binary version 304.128 from nvidia-304, nvidia-304-updates, version 34.93 from nvidia-340 and nvidia-340-updates
[16:18] <lotuspsychje> poli: can you try 304 binary and reboot?
[16:18] <poli> lotuspsychje: the 304 instead of the 340?
[16:18] <lotuspsychje> poli: wich one is active right now? sudo lshw -C video?
[16:18] <jnoob22> ActionParsnip, looks like if you become root via sudo su - , it automatically takes you to $HOMEDIR
[16:19] <jnoob22> ActionParsnip, thanks very much for the help though
[16:19] <TurBoss> ioria, teward: recompiled opencv 3.0 and the need of libavcodec56 is gone thank yo
[16:19] <poli> lotuspsychje: nouveau
[16:19] <ioria> TurBoss, good
[16:19] <poli> lotuspsychje: It took me some good 30 minutes to get back to nouveu from 340-updates that was just not working after dist-upgrade
[16:19] <ActionParsnip> jnoob22: could ask in #bash
[16:19] <lotuspsychje> poli: nouveau not working correctly?
[16:20] <jnoob22> ActionParsnip, will do! thanks!
[16:21] <poli> lotuspsychje: It is, actually. I just thought I would get better <performance, latency etc.> with the NVidia driver. I am even getting my full 900p resolution, to be honest.
[16:21] <lotuspsychje> poli: if nothing bad happens, ill stick to nouveau
[16:22] <poli> lotuspsychje: I am not feeling anything wrong, really. I might just do that. Thanks again! Your help was very much appreciated!
[16:23] <lotuspsychje> poli: no sweat i dindt do much :p
[16:29] <linocisco> hi all
[16:29] <kubast2> Hey ,shouldn't apt-get accept "Y" even through Y is default option ?
[16:29] <kubast2> Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Y Abort.
[16:29] <linocisco> typing in text box is always a problem as pointer is moving at random anywhere at any speed
[16:31] <artois> kubast2: if it's in caps, that's what it would suggest to me, yes
[16:31] <artois> linocisco: touchpad?
[16:32] <linocisco> artois, everybody will guess it is touchpad issue. but not really. I didn't touch
[16:32] <artois> linocisco: so... is it a touchpad?
[16:33] <linocisco> artois, nope
[16:33] <NYTimes> hello everyone how should I proceed to play RUST on ubuntu ?
[16:34] <chotaz`w> NYTimes, Install PlayOnLinux, it's your best bet.
[16:34] <daftykins> !appdb | NYTimes read here
[16:34] <NYTimes> thx
[16:34] <artois> NYTimes: that a game?
[16:34] <NYTimes> artois also
[16:35] <artois> your best bet is probably to read the notes at ubottu's link, but playonlinux might "just work" for win32 apps
[16:35] <NYTimes> artois thx
[16:35] <OerHeks> NYTimes, purchase the game RUST on steam i guess
[16:36] <NYTimes> OerHeks nope I do not think so
[16:36] <lotuspsychje> NYTimes: it does show RUST on steam
[16:37] <daftykins> yeah but it's windows, mac and steambox only.
[16:37] <daftykins> actually, windows and mac only i think.
[16:37] <lotuspsychje> AH
[16:37] <NYTimes> lotuspsychje I do not have any money for games sorry
[16:37] <OerHeks> steam or humble store,
[16:37] <OerHeks> NYTimes, then choose a free game :-D
[16:37] <daftykins> NYTimes: then we don't want to know how you intend on getting it
[16:38] <NYTimes> OerHeks u right
[16:38] <OerHeks> lots of them @ steam
[16:38] <linocisco> typing in text box is always a problem as pointer is moving at random anywhere at any speed
[16:38] <Chrissem> we need more linux games ;)
[16:38] <ykrons> Hi all
[16:38] <NYTimes> Chrissen I don't even know one
[16:39] <chotaz`w> Chrissem, what we need is proper GPU support for linux. rather than more games.
[16:39] <motaka2> OerHeks: ?
[16:39] <OerHeks> "what we need" is more suitable for #ubuntu-discussion
[16:40] <lotuspsychje> !discuss
[16:40] <NYTimes> okokok I /part
[16:40] <NYTimes> cya
[16:41] <ykrons> When I do a "sudo tar -xvzf " on an archive I get files not owned by root:root but by my user created during installation. I can't find clear documentation about this. Is there a good place to find explanations?
[16:43] <tsbtmn> I am refurbishing an old laptop and just popped in an SSD.  I've never worked with an SSD before.  Is a swap partition a bad idea?  Note: the laptop has 2 gigs of ram installed.
[16:43] <linocisco> typing in text box is always a problem as pointer is moving at random anywhere at any speed
[16:43] <daftykins> ykrons: it's only one more command to change ownership?
[16:43] <OerHeks> ykrons, see man tar # use the -p option to preserve permissions
[16:43] <millerti> What was the command again to install the latest kernel?
[16:43] <daftykins> linocisco: you keep on repeating your question, but it does not give enough of an explanation to be of any use.
[16:43] <artois> tsbtmn: jeez man, don't cross post
[16:43] <daftykins> sudo apt-get install linux-generic ; millerti
[16:43] <millerti> I think I've discovered that there are circumstances where installing or upgrading to 15.10 does not install kernels at all.
[16:43] <wileee> tsbtmn, SSD are pretty solid these days, if you want to hibernate yes.
[16:44] <artois> tsbtmn: you were already adequately answered elsewhere
[16:44] <lotuspsychje> !kernel | millerti
[16:44] <millerti> daftykins: Thanks.  I'm putting that into my notes.
[16:44] <linocisco> daftykins, i dont know how to explain more to draw attention of volunteer
[16:44] <motaka2_> daftykins: I have ubuntu on my flash as you said yesterday but when I boot the keyboard doesn't work
[16:44] <lotuspsychje> !details | linocisco like this
[16:44] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, I remember i explained to you the other day
[16:44] <ykrons> daftykins, I know this, but want to understand why a command don't give me the same result on two different computer
[16:45] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: this is a new day, with other volunteers
[16:45] <daftykins> ykrons: what are the two?
[16:45] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: re-ask all in one line + details please so other can try solving
[16:45] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, daftykins the thing is my annoying pointer which goes randomly at random speed at random time
[16:45] <daftykins> linocisco: so when touching nothing, your laptop's mouse pointer on-screen is dancing around?
[16:46] <linocisco> daftykins, that is the point
[16:46] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: ubuntu version, grafix card chipset?
[16:46] <ykrons> OerHeks, I will check the -p option, but I think the tar is OK as it produces file owned by the proper user on one computer and not on the other
[16:46] <ykrons> daftykins, it's two ubuntu 14.04
[16:47] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, daftykins Dell Inspiron 3443 Core i 7, 15.04, x86. Intel® HD Graphics 5500 (Broadwell GT2)
[16:47] <tsbtmn> artois: Thanks.
[16:47] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: did you test LTS if you have same issue?
[16:48] <daftykins> motaka2: so... what is your question?
[16:48] <motaka2> daftykins: I have ubuntu on my flash as you said yesterday but when I boot the keyboard doesn't work
[16:48] <motaka2> daftykins: so I can't select any option in installer boot menu
[16:48] <daftykins> motaka2: but it reaches the desktop now without needing nomodeset?
[16:48] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, yes. LTS 14.04 is worst and some drivers are missing and I can't even work like I am using with 15.04
[16:48] <daftykins> oh that early.
[16:49] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: but, did you have the pointer problem on LTS?
[16:49] <motaka2> daftykins: it doesnt reach desktop
[16:49] <ykrons> daftykins, OerHeks: that's OK, I get it. The saved owner is not created in one computer. So I think tar falls back on a defaut user
[16:49] <daftykins> motaka2: you'll need to use a key such as F2, delete - or otherwise to enter the BIOS and look for a "USB legacy" option to change, usually it has choices between Enabled/Disabled
[16:49] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, I didn't notice well. but graphic and wlan, blsuetooth and others were major problem
[16:50] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, that was why I decided to use 15.05
[16:50] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, that was why I decided to use 15.04
[16:50] <motaka2> daftykins: I think the usb boot works cause I see the installer boot menu
[16:50] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: grafix issues can be solved
[16:50] <daftykins> motaka2: and you tried booting to there with the keyboard unplugged, then plug it in once the menu is there?
[16:51] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, but let it be. I have very limited and expensive internet.
[16:51] <millerti> AHA!  apt-get install linux-generic
[16:51] <millerti> Whoops.
[16:51] <millerti> http://askubuntu.com/questions/689358/ubuntu-kernel-not-updating-with-15-10
[16:51] <motaka2> daftykins: I will unplug and restart and when the menu is there I will plug the keyboars. is that what you want ?
[16:51] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: you need to take action mate, investigate your logs @15.04 and come back here with details/errors
[16:51] <daftykins> motaka2: yep
[16:52] <motaka2> daftykins: ok wait ...
[16:52] <wileee> millerti, run the generic than apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:53] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, i dont know how to check log. even if I see, I dont know what is error and how to take action. let me paste here syslog and dmesg like you said in the other day . again
[16:53] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: didnt we see ACPI firmware errors the other day?
[16:53] <motaka2> daftykins: nope it doesnt work
[16:53] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, i dont know
[16:53] <daftykins> motaka2: tried more ports?
[16:54] <motaka2> daftykins: I did right now

[16:54] <heber> hello, is any one know about pidgin
[16:54] <daftykins> motaka2: this is quite strange, normally you have to press a key to get the Try, install, etc. menu to begin with
[16:55] <daftykins> heber: ask the question
[16:55] <UniFreak> how to let application auto on top when open? like in windows
[16:55] <motaka2> daftykins: idk
[16:55] <heber> how to sign with it
[16:55] <motaka2> daftykins: What doe  you suggest then ?
[16:55] <wileee> UniFreak, what desktop and release?
[16:55] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, dmesg= http://paste.ubuntu.com/12971321/ (nothing inside)
[16:55] <daftykins> motaka2: as already mentioned, you will need to enter your system BIOS and look for the USB Legacy enabled/disabled option
[16:56] <UniFreak> wileee: ubuntu 15.10 64bit
[16:56] <wileee> UniFreak, Take a look in the unity-tweak tool it needs installing, ccsm might be another as far as gui's
[16:57] <heber> daftykins:help plz
[16:57] <daftykins> heber: 'sign' = ?
[16:57] <wileee> UniFreak, That is rather irritating I know, I use the gnome shell.
[16:57] <heber> yaa
[16:57] <daftykins> heber: sign in? with what protocol? you need an existing account on a supported chat service
[16:58] <motaka2> daftykins: I really dont know where i can find it
[16:58] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: that doesnt sound too good:  0.039183] Your BIOS is broken and requested that x2apic be disabled.
[16:58] <heber> with xmpp
[16:58] <daftykins> motaka2: neither can i, so you have to try every screen
[16:58] <lotuspsychje> linocisco:  0.147827] [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored
[16:58] <UniFreak> wileee: can you point me to a link? I can't find anything search google
[16:58] <daftykins> heber: so open the program and select to add an account, then pick XMPP
[16:58] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, what should I do? one thing i remembered was on one day , I turned on computer and power off home breaker. and battery drain
[16:58] <UniFreak> what gnome shell
[16:58] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: my advise, go back to LTS stable and solve your issues from there
[16:59] <heber> yes picked already
[16:59] <motaka2> daftykins: usb keyboard support ?
[16:59] <wileee> UniFreak, I'm looking right now, gotta find the right search foo is all
[16:59] <daftykins> motaka2: that might work, what is it on now?
[16:59] <daftykins> heber: https://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/Using%20Pidgin#HowdoIuseAIMMSNYahooGoogleTalkJabberXMPPICQoranyotherprotocol
[16:59] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: or try some ACPI boot options on 15.04 and file bugs on your system
[16:59] <motaka2> daftykins: disable
[16:59] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, i have installed and saved alot of work on here. printer drivers which is difficult to setup and many others. do you really want me to go back to 14.04 LTS as only solution?
[16:59] <daftykins> motaka2: ok try changing it, save and exit, then try again
[17:00] <UniFreak> wileee: yes, using `auto on top` do no good. but can't think other keywords out
[17:00] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: no, that is totaly your choice: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[17:00] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: i can onloy suggest what i would do
[17:00] <wileee> UniFreak, I would look at the apps I mention the unity-tweak tool is a good one ccsm is what the desktop sits in as a plugin.
[17:00] <motaka2> daftykins: no it doesnt work
[17:01] <wileee> !ccsm | UniFreak
[17:01] <daftykins> motaka2: it's possible there's still an issue with the flash drive boot media, try different ports for that too
[17:01] <dominic1134> i'm building a deb package which depends on mysql.  i try to suppress the mysql password prompts during installation with deb-set-selections inside my preinst, but this doesn't work.  any workaround for this?
[17:01] <motaka2> daftykins: I did  that befor
[17:02] <daftykins> motaka2: now things have changed :) try powering off, too
[17:02] <dominic1134> i'm building a deb package which depends on mysql-server.  i would like to suppress the mysql password prompts during installation with deb-set-selections inside my preinst, but this doesn't work, because my preinst get's executed after mysql-server install script is invoked.  any workaround for this?
[17:02] <wileee> dominic1134, patience please free volunteer help here.
[17:02] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: also you can check recent bios updates for your system
[17:03] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: this is toshiba machine?
[17:03] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, how to ?
[17:03] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, Dell
[17:03] <lotuspsychje> ah
[17:03] <motaka2> daftykins: powered off an still nothing
[17:03] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, Dell inspiron 3443
[17:03] <dominic1134> is there a channel for deb packaging or debian package maintainers over here?
[17:03] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: check dell's website for recent bios updates
[17:03] <daftykins> motaka2: you need to actually apply some thought to situations like these, go and check the BIOS again and experiment
[17:04] <motaka2> daftykins: ok
[17:05] <heber> daftykins:is pidgin differ from xchat
[17:05] <artois> pidgin is an IM client that also does IRC
[17:05] <artois> xchat is an IRC client
[17:05] <artois> replace by hexchat
[17:05] <UniFreak> wileee: I installed it. can you tell me which option should I change? I'm afraid my desktop will blow up
[17:06] <UniFreak> I'm using hexchat
[17:06] <daftykins> UniFreak: that's silly.
[17:07] <UniFreak> previously I use thunderbirds' build in irc funtionality, it's very good, only can't transfer file. so I switched to hexCaht
[17:07] <UniFreak> *hexChat*
[17:07] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: man you have so many issues in syslog... nouveau: probe of 0000:08:00.0 failed with error -22
[17:07] <wileee> UniFreak, Not really I don't use that desktop so just a point at what might be the fix.
[17:08] <UniFreak> if hexChat can support auto-format like *bold* _italic_
[17:08] <UniFreak> it will be perfect
[17:08] <heber> daftykins
[17:08] <daftykins> heber: you were answered by someone else, read up.
[17:09] <heber> ok thanks daftykins
[17:09] <UniFreak> plus, auto-smiley, :)
[17:10] <motaka2> daftykins: gave up, never was good with hardware
[17:10] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, I dont know what they are
[17:10] <daftykins> motaka2: what version did you put on the flash drive?
[17:11] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, two major issue is nm-applet and pointer issue
[17:11] <motaka2> daftykins: 14.04 lts, i have check ed  the flash with another PC and it booted fine
[17:11] <daftykins> motaka2: ah you neglected to mention that part
[17:11] <motaka2> daftykins: sorry
[17:11] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: i would fresh install 14.04.3 or tryout 15.10
[17:11] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, I never get ipv4 address or connection
[17:12] <daftykins> motaka2: is it possible you have something plugged into this system via USB that's not important? sometimes booting with the bare minimum plugged in can help.
[17:12] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, is 15.10 LTS? I heard. I didn't check. what is good with 15.10
[17:12] <daftykins> no it is not
[17:12] <daftykins> 14.04 = LTS
[17:12] <MonkeyDust> linocisco  16.04 will be lts, in april
[17:13] <MonkeyDust> linocisco  12.04, 14.04, 16.04, 18.04 etc
[17:13] <motaka2> daftykins: i dont know. I think i dont understand you
[17:13] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: LTS can solve alot of issues you having in syslog right now
[17:13] <daftykins> motaka2: unplug non-essential devices.
[17:13] <linocisco> MonkeyDust, daftykins , hi dears. I can't wait for annoying things until LTS in April. let me go to somewhere with good internet and download 15.10 x64 iso
[17:14] <motaka2> daftykins: What are they
[17:14] <motaka2> like mouse and keyboard ?
[17:14] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, the reason why I stopped using 14.04 LTS was screen is rotating like NTSC and PAL mismatch
[17:14] <daftykins> motaka2: yeah and the screen too, those should be the only 3 things plugged in (besides power :P )
[17:15] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: you should have come to here and ask your issue on 14.04
[17:15] <daftykins> motaka2: perhaps check that that BIOS option was actually saved.
[17:15] <motaka2> daftykins: mouse keyboard and screen and the flash with ubuntu are all the four things plugged
[17:16] <motaka2> daftykins: it was saved
[17:16] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, if I would have to discuss about 14.04 and my laptop problem in details, I need another computer with internet to chat. i have only one. Otherwise, I could not report you real time
[17:16] <daftykins> motaka2: ok, you could also try loading the defaults. after that, i have no further ideas beyond another keyboard
[17:17] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: did you fully updated 14.04 to 14.04.3 at that time?
[17:18] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: installed with cable + updates enabled during setup
[17:18] <millerti> Is there a convenient way to figure out which ethernet device is associated with a physical NIC?  Here's what I do:  (1) lspci, looking for the device and getting this PCI ID.  (2) grep dmesg for the PCI ID, get the MAC address.  (3) grep "ifconfig -a" for the MAC address.
[17:18] <millerti> And you know what's REALLY bizarre?  My ethernet devices have all different names on each 15.10 machine I have.
[17:19] <daftykins> millerti: lshw -C network
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> millerti: ifconfig     will give the MAC address of an interface
[17:19] <daftykins> millerti: yeah they will...
[17:19] <motaka2> daftykins: It all started with some like /tmp doesnt exist
[17:19] <Myrtti_> millerti: https://askubuntu.com/questions/689070/network-interface-name-changes-after-update-to-15-10-udev-changes
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> millerti: do you have 2 Ethernet ports with Ethernet chips from different vendors?
[17:19] <daftykins> motaka2: yeah that doesn't matter.
[17:19] <dominic1134> i'm building a deb package which depends on mysql-server.  i would like to suppress the mysql password prompts during installation with deb-set-selections inside my preinst, but this doesn't work, because my preinst get's executed after mysql-server install script is invoked.  any workaround for this?
[17:20] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, not really. I just stopped with 14.04 as a friend suggested to move on to 15.04. like immediate solution
[17:20] <motaka2> daftykins: I have  lost lots of data. I though linux is more reliable than windows
[17:20] <millerti> Myrtti_: Yeah, I read that a while back.  So why is it that one machine reverted back to eth named when I upgraded from 15.04 to 15.10 ?
[17:20] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, what cable?
[17:20] <millerti> ActionParsnip: I figured it all out.  I'm just ranting.
[17:20] <Myrtti_> millerti: that I don't know.
[17:21] <daftykins> motaka2: no, you have lost nothing - as i said it is still there on the hard disk. you are assuming the worst. the OS cannot protect against the user, sorry.
[17:21] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: switching to a non-lts doesnt mean immediate fixxed issues
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> millerti: if you can use different vendors, the first few characters in the MAC will define that for you, makes it easier :)
[17:22] <motaka2> daftykins: ok, i will take the case to shop which also repair the systems. maybe something is wrong with my hardware
[17:22] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, but it fixed driver problems.. more models are supported
[17:22] <daftykins> motaka2: could be.
[17:22] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, I will download 14.04.xxx and 15.10
[17:22] <daftykins> motaka2: just go in with it and the flash drive and see if you can get their keyboards to work.
[17:22] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: i would go from LTS in your case, and try to solve issue per issue
[17:22] <linocisco> lotuspsychje,  I dont know what is latest on 14.04.xx but let me start with LTS as you said
[17:23] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: 14.04.3
[17:23] <Kion> why does upgrading to 15.10 disabled some of my ppa's, Is it ok if I just go to /etc/apt/sources.list and take the # off?
[17:23] <motaka2> daftykins: I have an extra keyboard here
[17:23] <motaka2> do you want me to plug it in ?
[17:23] <lotuspsychje> !ppapurge | Kion
[17:23] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, that should be case by case. but you guys are not always free to reply like now. and I am from opposite time zone
[17:23] <daftykins> motaka2: how have you not tried this already?
[17:23] <millerti> Then there's the joy of trying to figure out WHICH NIC port I need to use.  Fortunately, I have only two SFP+ ports, but I had to try each one in turn.  No way to tell which one has a cable plugged in that I can see.
[17:24] <lotuspsychje> linocisco: 1800 users here worldwide daily to help you
[17:24] <motaka2> daftykins: I havent yet tried another keyboard
[17:24] <MonkeyDust> linocisco  we're all from different timezones
[17:25] <linocisco> lotuspsychje, Online users does not always mean that response ever. I dont want to  repeat until i got !patience from bot
[17:26] <linocisco> MonkeyDust, lotuspsychje thanks for your help . let me try my luck again
[17:26] <Seveas> linocisco: don't walk under ladders and don't break the mirror. You should be fine :)
[17:26] <MonkeyDust> linocisco  and watch out for black cats
[17:27] <linocisco> Seveas, MonkeyDust I dont understand really
[17:29] <linocisco> ubuntu community is changing . most nicks are new. I joined lauchpad on 2007. the nicks I saw always are disappeared totally
[17:29] <ioria> MonkeyDust, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNSYzXIiVrM
[17:30] <artois> things change
[17:30] <Kion> ubottu: It was two ppa's the unofficial ppa for FreeCAD and another unofficial for FlightGear, so what will ppa-purge will do?
[17:31] <imnotarobot> Hello guys.
[17:31] <artois> hey guy
[17:32] <imnotarobot> Anyone to know an open source replacement to the i2 Analyst`s Notebook?
[17:32] <imnotarobot> Can`t find.
[17:33] <artois> imnotarobot: link?
[17:33] <Seveas> linocisco: I've been here since 2004 :)
[17:34] <imnotarobot> artois: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analyst%27s_Notebook
[17:34] <imnotarobot> that one
[17:34] <imnotarobot> they have a little on the wiki.
[17:34] <linocisco> Seveas, i was away from ubuntu for years. By the time, I used ubuntu, I know Martin Pitt
[17:34] <mcphail> linocisco: Seveas helped me with my first evcer question on this channel during the warty warthog days
[17:34] <linocisco> and some guys who created APTONCD.
[17:35] <linocisco> now. I dont know where they has gone
[17:36] <lhz> i keep getting "[initramfs] Unable to find a medium containing a live file system" when I try to install 15.10-desktop from USB drive. tried two different laptops, both had earlier Ubuntu releases installed on them before. tried two different pen drives, and different methods of writing the iso to it (dd, unetbootin, universal usb installer). same result every time. any ideas?
[17:36] <artois> imnotarobot: ah, if they sell it to governments, chances are it's not worth using
[17:36] <artois> governments are the biggest suckers of them all
[17:36] <artois> they'll pay for anything, but only if it's expensive
[17:38] <artois> http://www.arrse.co.uk/community/threads/free-alternative-to-i2.133794/
[17:38] <daftykins> lhz: sounds like your drive was made up badly. you're definitely using dd with /dev/sdx and not /dev/sdx1 yes?
[17:39] <imnotarobot> artois: maybe not, however there _should_ be an analogue. It`s all about graphs made from people. Like in police movies.
[17:39] <linocisco> i think ubuntu supports or promote alot "python" than other languages
[17:39] <lhz> daftykins: yeah, but like I said, tried 3 different methods, all of them working flawlessly in the past. even downloaded the iso twice just to make sure it is ok.
[17:39] <Seveas> linocisco: they tried that for a while. Turns out: developers don't care :)
[17:39] <imnotarobot> artois: >they'll pay for anything, but only if it's expensive
[17:39] <Seveas> They'll use whatever they want anyway
[17:40] <daftykins> lhz: hash it, don't redownload :)
[17:40] <daftykins> !md5
[17:40] <imnotarobot> artois: The guys who have the money may want to get a bit of them on the contract.
[17:40] <artois> it looks like visio plus maps and graphs
[17:40] <lhz> daftykins: and it starts the process, I am getting the purple screen with the Ubuntu logo, but returns to console with that error message after about a minute.
[17:40] <artois> plenty of open source apps for all those things
[17:40] <carrgo> what is the name for the backbox channel
[17:40] <Kion> every time I turn my computer on I get a message saying "applications can no longer log in to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>but if I go into accounts all I see is a blank account That I can not delete, Where in the /etc are these online accounts stored, I want to delete it.!
[17:40] <daftykins> !backbox
[17:40] <carrgo> and dont say backbox
[17:40] <kostkon> !alis | carrgo
[17:40] <daftykins> carrgo: it's on a different network.
[17:40] <carrgo> because no one is there
[17:40] <daftykins> carrgo: it's NOT on freenode.
[17:40] <carrgo> which one
[17:41] <linocisco> Seveas, because there is a command "python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080" to easily build small webserver in LAN to share. I dont know or see about other languages
[17:41] <daftykins> carrgo: read above!
[17:42] <heber> chrome or vivaldi
[17:42] <daftykins> heber: use what you want, we don't allow polls here.
[17:42] <imnotarobot> artois: Ok, I`m gonna take a look, lol.
[17:42] <carrgo> thanks
[17:43] <bilb_ono> can anyone help me? I am trying to start unity. it starts up into just a terminal. I try entering unity and it says compiz (core) - Fatal: Couldn’t open display :O
[17:43] <heber> k cool
[17:44] <imnotarobot> linocisco: There is busybox httpd. I guess there`ll be a much better approach incorporated in systemd.
[17:44] <imnotarobot> heber: Try Leechcraft if you`re that bored.
[17:45] <daftykins> bilb_ono: what's the story here, what led to today?
[17:45] <linocisco> imnotarobot, thanks for response. i want to curiously know about busybox. I still dont understand about busybox. is it small linux ? or embedded linux? dont refer me to wiki for long reading
[17:45] <lhz> daftykins: good idea. looks like it doesn't match, so the download must be broken. it's just that I've done it twice now on two different PCs with same result. direct download http://releases.ubuntu.com/15.10/ubuntu-15.10-desktop-amd64.iso. strange.
[17:46] <daftykins> lhz: try using a torrent instead, that'll give you a good image - then i would use 'dd' again.
[17:46] <imnotarobot> linocisco: it`s a horde of small programs bundled into one executable. It has its own init and coreutils. Some other things too.
[17:47] <imnotarobot> linocisco: That`s why it is usable in embedded linux: you can have a lot by compiling only busybox.
[17:48] <linocisco> imnotarobot, have you used busybox?
[17:48] <linocisco> imnotarobot, I had annoying problem with busybox commands before on QNAP
[17:49] <imnotarobot> linocisco: httpd and its shell. Out of curiosity. Never tried to do anything with it.
[17:49] <imnotarobot> linocisco: What the QNAP is?
[17:50] <NYTimes> hello everyone I'm usiing weechat in a tmux-session and I can not manage to select text I'd very much like to be able to copy from my terminal
[17:50] <daftykins> imnotarobot: that's not on topic here.
[17:50] <linocisco> imnotarobot, https://www.qnap.com/i/useng/
[17:50] <cyphix> NYTimes: What is your problem exactly?
[17:50] <cyphix> NYTimes: You can't select anything at all?
[17:51] <XxKNO56xX> I believe he has problems selecting text in the terminal?
[17:51] <NYTimes> cyphix exactly
[17:51] <imnotarobot> daftykins: Ok, I`ll try my next question to be on-topic.
[17:51] <cyphix> NYTimes: Can you normally select text in a standard tmux session?
[17:51] <NYTimes> cyphix nope
[17:52] <imnotarobot> Here it is: I want to install the base system in place of the other system
[17:52] <imnotarobot> Using debootstrap
[17:52] <cyphix> NYTimes: So it does not seem to be a weechat issue. What terminal emulator do you use?
[17:52] <imnotarobot> The guides don`t say about downloading Ubuntu into /
[17:52] <imnotarobot> How can I do it?
[17:53] <daftykins> imnotarobot: on what, a QNAP NAS? no, not appropriate here.
[17:53] <imnotarobot> On a laptop.
[17:54] <daftykins> why using debootstrap? why not just normally?
[17:54] <ddr-new> Hi all. So I hosed my old install yesterday by hitting the 'upgrade distribution' button, and today I'm coming to you from a brand-new installation.
[17:54] <ddr-new> Well, installed over top of my old one.
[17:54] <NYTimes> cyphix I'm afraid I do not even know that
[17:54] <imnotarobot> I do not have a CD drive or a flash pendrive. Can`t get it.
[17:54] <daftykins> ddr-new: and the question is?
[17:54] <bilb_ono> turns out my .Xauthority file was owned by root. I changed ownership to my user and it worked! lightdm couldn’t start because of that
[17:54] <lhz> daftykins: the torrent download yields the correct md5, thanks for the hint!
[17:55] <ddr-new> I have my old encrypted home directory, all is well and good, but even though I wrote down the passphrase (and could actually find it!) I can't decrypt my directory.
[17:55] <daftykins> imnotarobot: flash drives are so cheap and even available in supermarkets now, i strongly suggest you splash out and get one.
[17:55] <cyphix> NYTimes: Ok it's probably the default one. Does it work with the shift key holded while selecting with mouse?
[17:55] <ddr-new> I try recovering the directory, but it just says failed to mount, no such file or directory: http://www.pasteall.org/61887
[17:55] <daftykins> lhz: no problem, would you also like confirmation of a wise method to put it on the flash drive now?
[17:55] <NYTimes> cyphix nope
[17:56] <lhz> daftykins: yes please
[17:56] <NYTimes> cyphix I think I'll try terminator
[17:56] <imnotarobot> daftykins: For some reason, I cannot use a pendrive.
[17:56] <ddr-new> Does anyone have any ideas?
[17:56] <hellslinger> does anyone know how to figure out why the power manager is not suspending the machine after a time? I'm on 14.04 using mate-power-manager/xfce4-power-manager
[17:56] <cyphix> NYTimes: Can you select text in a terminal without tmux?
[17:57] <cyphix> NYTimes: It's a solution, but it might not work if it's a tmux related problem
[17:57] <NYTimes> cyphix is gnome the default one ? nope not even without tmux
[17:57] <Pici> NYTimes: how are you trying to copy text?
[17:58] <cyphix> NYTimes: Gnome is the desktop environment. I don't remember which terminal emulator is the default one for ubuntu.
[17:58] <cyphix> Pici: that's actually the question I should have asked first :p
[17:58] <bob_> hay
[17:58] <NYTimes> Pici I tried copy-mode and with the mouse holding shift
[17:59] <SeerKan> Hi guys, any easy way to set some default permissions for folders created by nginx ?
[17:59] <bob_> seerkan instal gentoo
[17:59] <imnotarobot> daftykins: i guess it`s not ontopic because its *de*bootstrap, not ubustrap. Thanks.
[17:59] <linocisco> https://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/servicetag/JNJMC32/drivers
[17:59] <SeerKan> bob_: what does gentoo have to do with it ?
[18:00] <cyphix> NYTimes: You can't select (highlight text) or you can't copy the selected text?
[18:00] <linocisco> Dell has no support for my ubuntu though listed
[18:00] <bob_> SeerKan just try trust me
[18:00] <imnotarobot> SeerKan: maybe umask has something to do with that?
[18:00] <Pici> bob_: This is the Ubuntu support channel, asking people to install other distros isn't a solution.
[18:00] <NYTimes> cyphix yes
[18:01] <SeerKan> imnotarobot: that might work...
[18:01] <NYTimes> cyphix u got that right
[18:01] <bob_> Pici true. sry ^^
[18:01] <imnotarobot> SeerKan: then try it.
[18:01] <cyphix> NYTimes: It wasn't a yes/no question :) Which part doesn't work? Selecting, or copying selected text?
[18:02] <imnotarobot> Pici: not a solution for marketing reasons?
[18:02] <cyphix> NYTimes: Can you highlight text with the mouse inside a terminal?
[18:03] <Pici> imnotarobot: not a solution because this channel is for Ubuntu support only. Asking people to install another distro is rarely a solution to any issues.
[18:03] <ddr-new> oh, /sudo/ ecryptfs-recover-private, that works.
[18:03] <daftykins> lhz: if you plug your flash drive in then - and you're on a Linux already i take it? so if you install pastebinit then run "sudo parted -l | pastebinit" and share the link
[18:03] <linocisco> Pici, we need to think ubuntu way. and walk like Mark shuttleworth
[18:03] <imnotarobot> Pici: It may be _rarely_, though :D
[18:03] <linocisco> Pici, yes. you are right
[18:04] <it_> how can i install grub?
[18:04] <ikonia> grub is installed by default when you install ubuntu
[18:04] <ikonia> it's the default boot loader
[18:04] <EriC^^> it_: what's the problem?
[18:04] <ddr-new> nope, no decrypty 4 me
[18:04] <miha> how to install mac yosemite theme on ubuntu linux 14 link and instructions pliyy
[18:04] <ikonia> miha: you don't
[18:04] <it_> to run also with windows?
[18:04] <miha> plizz
[18:05] <patsToms> hey, someone have any idea why ubuntu installet at step where it should show windows partitions
[18:05] <ikonia> it_: grub is outside of ubuntu and windows, it's the boot loader that lives on the disk
[18:05] <patsToms> is showing only free hdd?
[18:05] <EriC^^> patsToms: it might be stray gpt data
[18:05] <daftykins> patsToms: sounds like you booted as legacy instead of EFI
[18:05] <badbodh> miha, find the theme yourself. extract the theme archive to ~/.themes directory (in your home folder)
[18:05] <daftykins> patsToms: or perhaps your system uses RAID transparently
[18:05] <lhz> daftykins: ah, sorry. I have Ubuntu on the PC at work, right now I'm sitting on a computer running Ubuntu inside VMware on Win7.
[18:06] <NYTimes> cyphix I can highlight while holding down but it gets deselected right after
[18:06] <miha> just sent me a link to the web page
[18:06] <ikonia> miha: what ?
[18:06] <daftykins> lhz: and you downloaded the ISO to the windows host? if so, use universal USB installer (UUI) from pendrivelinux.com
[18:06] <Pici> miha: we don't know of any. You'll need to look for yourself.
[18:06] <badbodh> miha, yeah. nope. want some go find some.
[18:06] <k1l_> !themes | miha
[18:06] <super_cntrlr> N00bs?
[18:06] <miha> im a ubuntu user realy like it
[18:06] <lhz> daftykins: thanks, trying that one now, I found the guide at http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
[18:07] <imnotarobot> miha: then why do you like Yosemite more?
[18:07] <super_cntrlr> Hi. How do i config my VM to use Genymotion?
[18:07] <it_> yes i know but i need it to run both xubuntu and even windows
[18:07] <rabobank> question: added a second monitor to my ubuntu system and now i've got two independent desktops.. e.g. can't drag windows between them. how do i reset my X or desktop settings so i have one desktop sharing two monitors?
[18:08] <imnotarobot> it_: simultaneously?
[18:08] <miha> just to transform the ubuntu 14 to osx to look better
[18:08] <badbodh> it_, why do you want to install grub ? grub should already be installed with ubuntu to begin with. you facing some problem ?
[18:08] <k1l_> miha: see the bots message if you find a theme there
[18:08] <patsToms> EriC^^, so about that gpt. Maybe you have some link which you can point to me?
[18:08] <it_> i am using a live session
[18:09] <EriC^^> patsToms: try sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda and paste the output
[18:09] <patsToms> EriC^^, I have windows 8 installed here. And I want to install ubuntu
[18:09] <badbodh> it_, have you installed ubuntu on your hdd yet ?
[18:09] <patsToms> EriC^^, You mean - boot live cd and then execute that?
[18:09] <NYTimes> cyphix still there ?
[18:09] <it_> windows did something to remove it
[18:09] <EriC^^> patsToms: yeah
[18:09] <imnotarobot> miha: It won`t look better at most. They do not hire Apple designers to make Apple-style themes.
[18:09] <patsToms> EriC^^, ok, momento
[18:09] <cyphix> NYTimes: yes
[18:10] <NYTimes> cyphix I can highlight while holding down but it gets deselected right after
[18:10] <cyphix> NYTimes: Sorry I missed your previous message
[18:10] <Pici> NYTimes: thats normal .As soon as you highlight and it is deselected it goes into X's clipboard. Just ctrl-v somewhere outside of your terminal.
[18:10] <it_> but i have still everything else all partitions
[18:10] <cyphix> NYTimes: Or press the middle-button. It will paste it
[18:11] <daftykins> it_: did you put Windows on first or second?
[18:11] <imnotarobot> it_: even the Ubuntu partition?
[18:12] <NYTimes> Pici I'd like to copy from my terminal and repaste it inside
[18:12] <ddr-new> oh, I have to be in the .Private directory.
[18:12] <Pici> NYTimes: then middle-click inside your terminal
[18:12] <ddr-new> Who designed this??? O_o
[18:13] <badbodh> it_, please be clear and concise when stating your problems. give us all the details in one attempt. what is your problem. what happened/did you do before it came up. what do you have on your pc (partitions, basic hardware). and why do you think you need to "install grub" . don;t make us play "guess what" :D
[18:13] <daftykins> ddr-new: pretty straightforward really.
[18:13] <it_> i had windows before i installed xubuntu but windows did something to the mbr so windows starts before grub
[18:13] <EriC^^> wubi?
[18:14] <EriC^^> how did you install xubuntu? from within windows?
[18:14] <ddr-new> Sure, _after_ I figured it out.
[18:14] <it_> no separated partitions
[18:14] <ddr-new> Nothing but this one random SO post says I need to run it where I need to run it.
[18:14] <EriC^^> it_: did grub ever work before?
[18:14] <ddr-new> It's not obvious at all!
[18:14] <NYTimes> Pici ok when I midlle-click it stays selected then ?
[18:15] <it_> yes grub worked very well
[18:15] <Pici> NYTimes: no, just click the middle mouse button, don't select with the middle mouse button.
[18:15] <badbodh> it_, open terminal and run "lsblk" and share on pastebin
[18:15] <EriC^^> it_: ok, it's probably windows reinstalling its efi files after an update
[18:15] <EriC^^> it_: can you boot into ubuntu right now?
[18:15] <it_> windows did something to grub
[18:16] <it_> no live session only
[18:16] <it_> with usb
[18:16] <NYTimes> Pici ok then ctrl shift c ?
[18:16] <EriC^^> it_: ok, are you in the live session right now?
[18:16] <DrManhattan> it_: did you install windows after ubuntu?
[18:16] <miha> how to install cubase 5 witch is a wery large program in ubuntu
[18:16] <badbodh> EriC^^, he mentioned " windows did something to the mbr " earlier. you sure he has efi instead?
[18:16] <DrManhattan> miha: theres cubase for linux native??/
[18:16] <ikonia> cubase does not have a linux version
[18:16] <it_> yes i am in the live session now
[18:16] <ikonia> and running a DAW in wine is a bad move
[18:17] <EriC^^> badbodh: nope just a guess
[18:17] <Pici> NYTimes: There are two clipboard buffers in Linux. Either select with mouse and use middle mouse button to paste, or select and use ctrl-shift-c to copy, ctrl-shift-v to paste
[18:17] <EriC^^> badbodh: my windows keeps rewriting the efi stuff when it updates every once in a while
[18:17] <ikonia> EriC^^: really, it's overriding the boot sector as part of a windows update ?
[18:17] <badbodh> ok EriC^^ . it_ run 'lsblk' first and show us output on pastebin. should tell if you have mbr or efi system
[18:18] <DrManhattan> I'll have to agree with ikonia on that one. Running a DAW in linux is a bad idea.
[18:18] <EriC^^> ikonia: no it's rewriting the bootmgfw.efi files which i had to switch to get my bios to boot ubuntu's shimx64.efi
[18:18] <DrManhattan> in WINE, sorry
[18:18] <it_> it is not efi i think, i am using, an older windows
[18:18] <DrManhattan> I'm sure there's some sort of DAW setup in SOMETHING for linux native
[18:18] <ikonia> EriC^^: interestig, that's useful to know
[18:18] <miha> i have plazonlinux installed witch is based on wine  casn i install cubase 5 with it
[18:18] <ikonia> miha: no
[18:19] <badbodh> it_, as i said earlier "be concise" , "older windows" is not a concise statement :/
[18:19] <EriC^^> it_: can you type sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 ?
[18:19] <DrManhattan> miha: you might be able to get it to install, but I wouldn't expect it to work.
[18:19] <NYTimes> Pici only ctrl shift v works
[18:20] <Pici> NYTimes: use that then
[18:20] <badbodh> dang it. it_ sorry, i meant "precise" , stupid me
[18:20] <badbodh> this third language thing kills me once in a while
[18:20] <NYTimes> Pici yeah but to copy from ?
[18:20] <mtn_> hello can you help me " I cant open .dat vcd video " ?
[18:21] <EriC^^> NYTimes: ctrl shift + c
[18:21] <it_> http://termbin.com/w28t
[18:21] <cyphix> NYTimes: Does your mouse has a wheel?
[18:21] <it_> http://termbin.com/9608
[18:22] <miha> i dont know anz commands in linux because i just install it
[18:22] <mtn_> hello can you help me " I cant open .dat vcd video " ?
[18:22] <EriC^^> it_: ok, type sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[18:22] <EriC^^> it_: why ext3? not ext4?
[18:22] <cyphix> NYTimes: If it does, select your text in the terminal, put your pointer on the message line, and click on the wheel. It will paste the selected text inside the message zone.
[18:23] <artois> mtn_: pardon?
[18:23] <imnotarobot> it_: You have to chroot into your Ubuntu partition.
[18:23] <badbodh> mtn_, have you installed 'restricted extras' and vlc ? should be able to play vcd
[18:23] <mtn_> Yes I tryied
[18:24] <artois> what'd you try, exactly?
[18:24] <it_> can i just reinstall grub or something like that
[18:24] <imnotarobot> it_: Inside the chrooted system, I guess.
[18:24] <EriC^^> it_: yeah, by chrooting it's pretty easy
[18:25] <mtn_> i setup wine gom player , wmp, vlc for wine and linux but i cant open .dat video
[18:25] <EriC^^> it_: type sudo mount dev/sda7 /mnt
[18:25] <badbodh> mtn_, don;t wine man. why wine. linux got native video players, use those.
[18:26] <badbodh> vlc is available in software centre, also try smplayer.
[18:26] <mtn_> i try with openshot, gnome and sm player
[18:26] <OerHeks> mtn_, normally a movie contains multiple .dat files, try opening that folder from vlc, not just the file.
[18:26] <patsToms> EriC^^, hey, I did gdisk and it asks me for what I want to use - MBR or GPT
[18:27] <it_> it@it:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[18:27] <it_> it@it:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt
[18:27] <it_> mount: /dev/sda7 already mounted or /mnt busy
[18:27] <it_> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda7 is already mounted on /mnt
[18:27] <it_> it@it:~$
[18:27] <EriC^^> patsToms: ok, what does it say at the top? protective mbr found?
[18:27] <EriC^^> or mbr found and that it's not gpt and which to use?
[18:27] <EriC^^> it_: ok, type cat /mnt/etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999
[18:28] <NYTimes> cyphix i'm sorry to say
[18:28] <NYTimes> but it does not
[18:28] <NYTimes> work
[18:28] <NYTimes> I'm goin mad here
[18:29] <patsToms> EriC^^, There is info: MBR: MBR only, GPT: present
[18:29] <patsToms> EriC^^, but there is no such text as you said
[18:29] <mtn_> Türkçe bilen var mı?
[18:29] <abraham_> buenas
[18:29] <daftykins> mtn_: english only.
[18:29] <NYTimes> Pici thx but I think I'll just go and shoot meself in d head
[18:29] <daftykins> !es
[18:30] <imnotarobot> mtn_: try #ubuntu-tr
[18:30] <EriC^^> patsToms: ok, i think it's stray gpt, type sudo fixparts /dev/sda
[18:30] <imnotarobot> !tr
[18:30] <EriC^^> if it mentions its mbr and finds stray gpt say to clear them
[18:30] <EriC^^> patsToms:
[18:31] <mtn_> vlc i set up now but dont open vlc window ?
[18:31] <patsToms> EriC^^, http://vpaste.net/MZuRP
[18:31] <Wichtelmann> deutscher chanel?
[18:31] <daftykins> Wichtelmann: -de
[18:31] <patsToms> EriC^^, so I want to delete those signatures as said there?
[18:31]  * mtn_ slaps acer__ around a bit with a large fishbot
[18:31] <EriC^^> patsToms: yeah
[18:31] <patsToms> EriC^^, ok
[18:31] <Cipher45> If I'm running a vps on openvz does that mean I never have to reboot because I can't do kernal updates?
[18:31] <Wichtelmann> have a problem with ubuntu
[18:32] <imnotarobot> !de
[18:32] <Wichtelmann> thanks!
[18:32] <artois> Cipher45: no, it means your system is virtualized
[18:32] <artois> Cipher45: so probably it means you don't have control over the hardware, which you knew already
[18:32] <super_cntrlr> ./genymotion
[18:32] <artois> Cipher45: you can however avoid rebooting almost always, though it's a truly unnecessary goal
[18:33] <motaka2> I made the keyboard work , but know ubuntu stops on logo without having the circles blinking
[18:33] <cyphix> NYTimes: maybe try with another emulator (terminator is nice).
[18:33] <patsToms> EriC^^, http://vpaste.netlvdxt
[18:33] <Cipher45> artois, but I don't run my own kernal with openvz. Since kernal updates are the only ones that need reboots I never have to reboot?
[18:33] <patsToms> EriC^^, http://vpaste.net/lvdxt
[18:33] <patsToms> EriC^^, it says that something can cause problems
[18:33] <patsToms> you know something about this?
[18:33] <EriC^^> patsToms: press w
[18:34] <akik> !fi
[18:34] <patsToms> EriC^^, it says that it will write existing partitions
[18:34] <EriC^^> no problem
[18:34] <patsToms> can I go wrong with my already installed windows 10?
[18:34] <NYTimes> cyphix yeah but tmux is so old-school to me
[18:34] <patsToms> EriC^^, ok
[18:34] <it_> http://termbin.com/p41r
[18:34] <artois> Cipher45: kernel updates are certainly the primary reason to reboot, yes
[18:34] <cyphix> NYTimes: tmux is not related to your problem
[18:34] <bhavesh> I am trying to copy and paste special characters in Ubuntu Terminal http://pasteboard.co/1FBaCYPv.png
[18:34] <bhavesh> but the Square isn
[18:34] <NYTimes> cyphix ok
[18:34] <artois> Cipher45: though technically you don't have to reboot to update a kernel
[18:34] <bhavesh> the square isn'
[18:34] <TurkiyeMehmet> turkiyeden kimse varmi?
[18:35] <EriC^^> it_: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[18:35] <EriC^^> type the whole line
[18:35] <bhavesh> the Square isn't getting copied properly
[18:35] <NYTimes> cyphix what is then ?
[18:35] <cyphix> NYTimes: Apparently, your terminal emulator.
[18:35] <Cipher45> artois, Okay cool. Thanks for the help!
[18:35] <it_> what should i type now
[18:36] <imnotarobot> it_:any output?
[18:36] <cyphix> NYTimes: If you install terminator, or xterm (lighter) and it works, then it was your former term emulator that had a problem. If it still does not work, that it's something else. But since you can't select/copy properly even outside of tmux, it's not related to tmux.
[18:36] <artois> it_: apt-get moo
[18:36] <EriC^^> it_: did you type the for i in /dev ... line?
[18:36] <mtn_> Thanks for all but i cant open vlc window and dont give any crash log
[18:37] <it_> i dont understand you
[18:37] <EriC^^> it_: for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[18:37] <it_> what should i type
[18:37] <EriC^^> type the above whole line from for i til done
[18:37] <artois> bhavesh: why are you typing that at all?
[18:38] <mh_2007_1> LIST
[18:38] <it_> it@it:~$ for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
[18:38] <it_> it@it:~$
[18:38] <NYTimes> cyphix true but why can I paste and not copy ?
[18:38] <bhavesh> artois: just for a school project
[18:38] <imnotarobot> it_:type chroot /mnt/
[18:39] <bhavesh> artois: but saving the output to a file and then reading works
[18:39] <imnotarobot> nope
[18:39] <it_> it@it:~$ chroot /mnt/
[18:39] <it_> chroot: cannot change root directory to /mnt/: Operation not permitted
[18:39] <it_> it@it:~$
[18:39] <EriC^^> it_: type sudo chroot /mnt
[18:39] <imnotarobot> Eric^^: the line maybe is not correct
[18:39] <cyphix> NYTimes: Maybe your current terminal has a special keybinding for it, and you didn't find it. I don't know. I admit it's weird the middle button doesn't work
[18:40] <EriC^^> imnotarobot: nah it needs sudo to chroot
[18:40] <imnotarobot> Eric^^: you forgot a slash after /mnt : /mnt/${i}
[18:40] <EriC^^> imnotarobot: no it's included in the for i list /dev /.. /..
[18:40] <it_> it@it:~$ sudo chroot /mnt
[18:40] <it_> root@it:/#
[18:40] <imnotarobot> Eric^^: he has /mntdev now, looks like that, nope?
[18:40] <EriC^^> it_: ok, type grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
[18:41] <imnotarobot> Eric^^: Splendid.
[18:41] <NYTimes> cyphix the middle button work for selecting not copying

[18:42] <lotuspsychje> !uefi > shark127 also read this
[18:42] <imnotarobot> shark127: go first for windows, then for ubuntu.
[18:42] <mtn_> http://pasteboard.co/1FBDauIt.png
[18:42] <cyphix> NYTimes: The middle button only serves to paste, not to copy. When you select some text, anywhere inside any program running on your system, it gets copied inside a clipboad that can be pasted with the middle mouse.
[18:43] <lotuspsychje> shark127: or make your life real easy and single install ubuntu, loose win once and for good :p
[18:43] <cyphix> NYTimes: Try to select some text on a webpage, and click the middle button inside a text file.
[18:43] <imnotarobot> Eric^^: looks like it_ has to do ldconfig?
[18:43] <NYTimes> cyphix ok
[18:43] <shark127> Lotuspsycje: i would if i could, need adobe products though...
[18:44] <shark127> sorry miss spelled your name
[18:44] <lotuspsychje> shark127: what kind of adobe products?
[18:44] <shark127> graphic ones, illustrator, photoshop, indesign, aftereffects
[18:44] <NYTimes> cyphix it worked
[18:44] <cyphix> NYTimes: Good.
[18:45] <Pici> !helpersnack | cyphix
[18:45] <EriC^^> it_: is this ubuntu or mint?
[18:45] <lotuspsychje> !info playonlinux | shark127 some adobe products here
[18:45] <NYTimes> ubottu don't be silly
[18:45] <it_> xubuntu
[18:45] <cyphix> Now try the same (select a piece of text from a webpage) and try to copy it with the middle button inside a terminal.
[18:45] <linocisco> hi , how to download a book from github? i have github link
[18:46] <cyphix> Pici: Thanks dear :)
[18:46] <NYTimes> cyphix but not in my term
[18:46] <it_> xubuntu
[18:47] <MonkeyDust> shark127  yes, it's a pity adobe and macromedia don't port their product to linux
[18:47] <MonkeyDust> products*
[18:47] <EriC^^> it_: hmm, it's odd
[18:47] <shark127> lotuspsychje thanks for the link, but i can only find photoshop
[18:48] <lotuspsychje> shark127: ok see what MonkeyDust said
[18:48] <shark127> MonkeyDust: so is the only option to have windows on dualboot? Ar can you somehow run adobe products on linux through wine or some other methot?
[18:48] <lotuspsychje> shark127: alternative you can use gimp
[18:49] <cyphix> NYTimes: Does 'Shift-insert' work to paste?
[18:49] <lotuspsychje> shark127: virtualbox perhaps?

[18:50] <amitd26> hi bipul
[18:50] <bipul> hi amitd26
[18:50] <NYTimes> cyphix yes
[18:50] <badbodh> EriC^^, if he has already mounted his root on /mnt, you don't need chroot to install grub. try sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot (i can;t remember if he had separate boot partition) followed by chroot and update-grub
[18:50] <lotuspsychje> mtn_: maybe the #videolan guys know howto?
[18:50] <cyphix> NYTimes: Ok, so that might be a solution for now
[18:51] <it_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12972346/
[18:51] <MonkeyDust> shark127  see up, what lotuspsychje/ubottu suggested
[18:51] <cyphix> NYTimes: maybe have a look at this : https://askubuntu.com/questions/302077/how-to-enable-paste-in-terminal-with-middle-mouse-button
[18:51] <NYTimes> cyphix nope cause I want to copy from my term
[18:51] <NYTimes> cyphix thx
[18:52] <EriC^^> badbodh: good idea
[18:52] <badbodh> it_, we need the output you earlier flooded in this channel. not ldconfig blah blah
[18:52] <cyphix> NYTimes: Try 'ctrl-insert' to copy then, and 'shift-insert' to paste.
[18:52] <shark127> Alright, thanks for the support! I'm sure i'll be back. bye!

[18:53] <cyphix> NYTimes: And try to use another terminal emulator to see if the problem comes for your current one
[18:53] <EriC^^> it_: try typing exit, then type sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sda
[18:53] <lotuspsychje> EriC^^, MonkeyDust come to discuss i have an important message

[18:56] <ddr_mobile> Hi again all. I just reinstalled kubuntu, after hosing my previous install, but note this one won't boot to login manager. It just freezes with the word "kubuntu" on screen.
[18:57] <ddr_mobile> I guess I could install it again... :p
[18:57] <badbodh> it_, then do  sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
[18:58] <it_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12972442/
[18:59] <badbodh> it_, "Installation finished. No error reported." should ring a bell :D
[18:59] <EriC^^> which ubuntu is this?
[18:59] <EriC^^> ext3 and i think that's grub legacy?
[19:00] <badbodh> it_, now you can 'chroot /mnt' and run "sudo update-initramfs -u && update-grub" within the chroot
[19:00] <it_> it is the usb now
[19:01] <it_> not hda because i typed exit like you said
[19:01] <badbodh> yes it is. now run 'chroot /mnt' to get back into hda
[19:02] <it_> with sudo you mean
[19:02] <badbodh> yes
[19:03] <it_> and then
[19:03] <amriunix> hi, beginner question : full format is it dangerous ??
[19:03] <Bashing-om> !repository
[19:04] <OerHeks> amriunix, no.
[19:04] <badbodh> EriC^^, maybe the --root-directory thingy works on newer grub too. trusty has grub2 right? i remember doing this.
[19:04] <it_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12972496/
[19:04] <Aiko_> what are pros and cons of installing get Ubuntu over Windows 10?
[19:05] <lotuspsychje> Aiko_: only pro's
[19:05] <badbodh> it_, bro do you even read? i said "sudo update-initramfs -u && update-grub"
[19:05] <amriunix> OerHeks: but it take a long time !, so i thought some bad things can happen to the drive !
[19:05] <lotuspsychje> Aiko_: your system will be fast,stable and secure and be able to use your machine properly
[19:05] <daftykins> Aiko_: lotuspsychje has a slightly bias opinion ;) it is not up to us to tell you what OS to run - this is for you to decide.
[19:05] <Aiko_> OK
[19:05] <daftykins> Aiko_: so try ubuntu from a flash drive first maybe.
[19:06] <Aiko_> simpler question does Ubuntu have some sort of ICS like Windows?
[19:06] <Aiko_> Internet connection sharing service
[19:06] <EriC^^> badbodh: yeah it works, the device.map made me think its grub legacy
[19:06] <it_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12972512/
[19:06] <EriC^^> i think grub2 doesn't use that anymore, could be wrong
[19:07] <badbodh> it_, silly me you are chroot. no need to 'sudo'
[19:07] <badbodh> just run that without sudo
[19:07] <lotuspsychje> Aiko_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing
[19:07] <badbodh> "I am Chroot !"
[19:08] <EriC^^> it should still work though, this install is pretty bizarre
[19:08] <EriC^^> it_: which ubuntu version is this?
[19:08] <it_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12972533/
[19:08] <loa> where i can get sources for mainline kernel builds?
[19:08] <EriC^^> it_: type cat /etc/issue
[19:08] <lotuspsychje> !mainline | loa
[19:08] <loa> i need source code for 4.3 version
[19:09] <loa> lotuspsychje, i am from that article, there are no answer for my question.
[19:09] <it_> root@it:/# cat /etc/issue
[19:09] <it_> Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS \n \l
[19:09] <it_> root@it:/#
[19:09] <loa> i want rebuild 4.3 kernel with my patch.
[19:09] <EriC^^> it_: ok
[19:10] <akik> loa: ftp://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/testing
[19:10] <EriC^^> it_: try locate python | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:10] <badbodh> EriC^^, it looks like he messed with python. i come across folks who upgraded python from source code in mint channels. that "could not find prefix" thingy looks like it
[19:10] <EriC^^> i wonder if we can set PYTHONHOME to something so it works
[19:10] <kleinerdrache> which package must be installed to make bash showing me the package for a command if it is not installed yet?
[19:10] <kleinerdrache> and where is add-apt-repository ?
[19:10] <jwilber1997> hola chavales que tal
[19:11] <lotuspsychje> !es | jwilber1997
[19:11] <EriC^^> badbodh: yeah, maybe if we set it to /usr/local/python or something it will work?
[19:11] <lotuspsychje> kleinerdrache: is it apt-cache search packagename you seek?
[19:12] <badbodh> it_, did you upgrade python using source code from website earlier ?
[19:12] <EriC^^> it_: try cat /etc/environment | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:12] <it_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12972774/
[19:12] <EriC^^> maybe that's where it usually sets it
[19:13] <badbodh> depends on where it was installed, and whether it replaced existing python 2.xx or is installed alongside
[19:13] <it_> http://termbin.com/8sbq
[19:13] <kleinerdrache> lotuspsychje: i dont think so... i had a feature on ubuntu on any machine in the past, where i put something in the xterm, like 'foobar' and its telling me. 'foobar is not installed, its in the package foobar-tools, try apt-get install foobar-tools to install it' or something like that
[19:13] <ubuntu-mate> Hi guys, I am on live cd of mate trying to use gparted to allocate more space to linux from windows 7, but it wont let me reduce the partition below the 340gb that it currently is. I have 160gb of free space. so struggling. anyone have any ideas?
[19:14] <badbodh> EriC^^, btw i can;t even code a hello world, so my knowledge is non-existent regarding prefix thingies :P
[19:14] <EriC^^> badbodh: i've pretty much never set anything like that too
[19:14] <swenzel> I'm still trying to deal with https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61651 the patch mentioned there still seems to be applicable to kernel 4.2 sources... however I have no idea how to get the kernel to compile... anyone willing to guide me through compiling and installing it?
[19:15]  * EriC^^ googles away..
[19:15] <lotuspsychje> kleinerdrache: if the packagename exist, ubuntu itself gives you sugestion to install existing package, try it with 'zoo' in terminal
[19:16] <badbodh> it_, run 'which python' and 'python -V' in your chroot shell, share output here (no need to pastebin)
[19:16] <Aiko_> is it really difficult to build your own kernel?
[19:17] <lotuspsychje> !kernel | Aiko_
[19:17] <it_> root@it:/# which python
[19:17] <it_> /usr/bin/python
[19:17] <it_> root@it:/# python -V
[19:17] <it_> Python 2.7.6
[19:17] <it_> root@it:/#
[19:17] <cyphix> NYTimes: Any luck?
[19:17] <kleinerdrache> lotuspsychje: zoo: command not found.
[19:17] <kleinerdrache> lotuspsychje: i think i'm missing a package for that
[19:17] <lotuspsychje> kleinerdrache: wich ubuntu version?
[19:18] <it_> will it work if i upgrade the dist
[19:18] <lotuspsychje> kleinerdrache: mine says, zoo not found you can sudo apt-get install zoo
[19:18] <Aiko_> I was thinking about kernel for Android
[19:18] <it_> or something
[19:19] <Aiko_> to build kernel or Android rom I would need to use Linux
[19:19] <Aiko_> probably Ubuntu
[19:19] <EriC^^> it_: try grep -r PYTHONHOME /etc | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:19] <EriC^^> it_: it used to work from the install right?
[19:20] <Seveas> EriC^^: PYTHONHOME isn't a thing
[19:20] <it_> root@it:/# grep -r PYTHONHOME /etc | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:20] <it_> Use netcat.
[19:20] <it_> root@it:/#
[19:20] <it_> yes
[19:20] <it_> and very well
[19:20] <EriC^^> Seveas: it's complaining about it from the chroot
[19:20] <EriC^^> it_: try PYTHONHOME=/usr/local
[19:21] <lotuspsychje> Aiko_: maybe the #android guys can point you to right direction
[19:21] <EriC^^> just a guess
[19:21] <badbodh> EriC^^, && export PYTHONHOME ?
[19:21] <loa> akik, i need apply patch from there to archive?
[19:22] <daftykins> it_: please stop pasting to IRC.
[19:22] <akik> Aiko_: try http://www.xda-developers.com/
[19:22] <EriC^^> badbodh: yeah, sure
[19:22] <Seveas> EriC^^: I stand corrected. Never seen it before though :)
[19:22] <it_> root@it:/# PYTHONHOME=/usr/local
[19:22] <it_> root@it:/# PYTHONHOME=/usr/local
[19:22] <it_> root@it:/#
[19:23] <EriC^^> Seveas: :)
[19:23] <kleinerdrache> lotuspsychje: 14.04 server minimal edition
[19:23] <it_> will it work if i upgrade the dist
[19:23] <it_> or something
[19:23] <akik> loa: i don't remember any more. i haven't compiled a kernel in years
[19:24] <akik> loa: i think the patch files were used if you had an older archive and wanted to patch it to a newer version
[19:24] <it_> i need to go
[19:24] <badbodh> it_, as of right now you can;t even update your grub. better stop thinking about upgrading the whole damn distro
[19:24] <badbodh> baby steps
[19:24] <Seveas> it_: setting PYTHONHOME to /usr/local sounds like a Really Bad Thing, that'll mess up any system python using program. It should also not be needed as a python binary is able to find its own home. What are you doing?
[19:24] <loa> akik, there are patched kernel sources... but how i can build kernel debs from this?
[19:25] <it_> back in 30 min
[19:25] <badbodh> Seveas, but it's not permanent, so won;t be there after reboot. no harm re-borking a borked system
[19:25] <badbodh> :P
[19:26] <akik> loa: those are the sources you wanted. try make-kpkg
[19:26] <Seveas> badbodh: I'd rather fix a borked system, but maybe I'm odd :P
[19:26] <Peyam> hi
[19:26] <SeerKan> any way to set umask for nginx ? can't seem to find any solution, all google results talk about php-fpm and I'm using ruby/passenger and passenger takes settings like that from the webserver
[19:26] <Seveas> hello Peyam, how may we help?
[19:26] <Peyam> hi
[19:27] <Peyam> my Xubuntu gets disconnecting on good wifi. What do I have to do?
[19:27] <NYTimes> cyphix ok now I can select copy paste in my term but not in tmux
[19:27] <Seveas> Peyam: find out why it's disconnecting. Looking through /var/log/syslog should help
[19:28] <badbodh> EriC^^, he has obviously done a lot more than he's telling. i've used trusty for 500 years and messed up grub a 1000 times. (numbers may have been exaggerated here)
[19:28] <EriC^^> badbodh: hehe, yeah
[19:28] <Peyam> Seveas, it doesnt say its disconnected it is just stop working and I have to disconnect and connect again
[19:28] <badbodh> easy peasy fix, grub-install - chroot - update-initramfs and grub
[19:29] <Seveas> Peyam: when that happens, can you ping your router?
[19:29] <Seveas> apparently not...
[19:29] <cyphix> NYTimes: Mhmmm, weird. What can't you do? Select, or copy selected text?
[19:31] <badbodh> Seveas, you are so odd, even number 13 now thinks it's a power of 2.
[19:31] <NYTimes> cyphix https://awhan.wordpress.com/2010/06/20/copy-paste-in-tmux/
[19:32] <NYTimes> but I'm stuck at step 2) lol
[19:32] <cyphix> NYTimes: No no, forget this. It's if you want to navigate inside your tmux session. You can learn it later, but it's not related to your current issue.
[19:33] <cyphix> NYTimes: So now, inside a terminal window, without tmux, how do you copy > paste text?
[19:33] <Seveas> badbodh: it is. It's 2 ^ 3.70044
[19:35] <NYTimes> cyphix: ctrl shift [cv]
[19:35] <cyphix> NYTimes: Ok. Did you install another terminal emulator? Try xterm, it's light.
[19:36] <akik> hihi ctrl+b vs. screen's ctrl+a
[19:36] <NYTimes> cyphix: i'll try it right now
[19:36] <NYTimes> akik ?
[19:36] <akik> NYTimes: screen has the same copy functionality with ctrl+a [ ]
[19:37] <NYTimes> ok
[19:37] <akik> NYTimes: are you unable to press ctrl+space to begin selecting text?
[19:38] <NYTimes> akik yes
[19:38] <cyphix> akik: Ctrl-shift c/v still works with screen
[19:38] <akik> cyphix: it's not the same as ctrl+a [ ]
[19:39] <akik> cyphix: you can go back in the screen copy buffer with that
[19:40] <cyphix> akik: Right, but there, even the select -> middle button click does not work. We try to figure out why
[19:41] <akik> cyphix: there was a xorg configuration setting for the middle button
[19:41] <cyphix> akik: Ah ok. It always worked out of the box for me on any distro.
[19:42] <akik> cyphix: Emulate3Buttons
[19:43] <plaga> YEA
[19:43] <cyphix> akik: I thought it was not needed anymore. NYTimes should try it then.
[19:43] <akik> well that was the wrong one. that makes it so that you can use left+right mouse button ton emulate the middle button
[19:44] <cyphix> akik: so it applies if you don't have a middle button only, isn't it?
[19:44] <akik> cyphix: yes
[19:45] <cyphix> akik: but NYTimes does have one. And I remember it works for him outside a terminal. So it's not the problem apparently
[19:45] <akik> could you check with xev that the middle button is sending the right event?
[19:48] <NYTimes> cyphix: I finally made it work
[19:48] <cyphix> NYTimes: Woot! How did you achieve it?
[19:48] <NYTimes> cyphix: I thank you very much
[19:48] <cyphix> NYTimes: No problem!
[19:48] <NYTimes> cyphix: my bind key is w
[19:49] <cyphix> NYTimes: That was it... Ok, well done!
[19:51] <NYTimes> so ctrl w + [ to go copy-mode then space to select then enter to copy then ctrl w + ] to paste
[19:52] <NYTimes> cyphix: or middle-click to select then enter to copy then ctrl w + ] to paste
[19:52] <NYTimes> cyphix: ctrl w + [ to go copy-mode then space to select then enter to copy then ctrl w + ] to paste
[19:54] <NYTimes> cyphix: thank u for ur fortitude
[19:59] <cyphix> NYTimes: glad you made it!

[20:12] <Schnabeltierchen> Some notebooks have hotkeys to start the calculator, browser and stuff directly. Any way to use them in Ubuntu?
[20:13] <leo1986> hi all, someone can help me to install Odoo on ubuntu 14.04 desktop?
[20:15] <leo1986> @Schnabeltierchen wich model of pc?
[20:16] <leo1986> acer? hp? ibm?
[20:17] <Schnabeltierchen> Dunno, just model WB-B55, manufacturerlabel was removed...
[20:18] <daftykins> leo1986: http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2014/09/how-to-install-openerp-odoo-8-on-ubuntu-server-14-04-lts/
[20:18] <Pici> Schnabeltierchen: As long as those keypresses are registed in xev, you should be able to use them as shortcuts... although I don't really use Ubuntu desktop so I'm not sure what the control panel item is called.
[20:19] <Schnabeltierchen> xev just reacts to 1 of 3 keys -_-
[20:23] <leo1986> daftykins: thanks but the step one is "Build a server" and I want to try it on a desktop installation before trying tou build a vm
[20:24] <daftykins> leo1986: doesn't matter.
[20:24] <daftykins> just try it
[20:24] <leo1986> you think that will work anyway?
[20:25] <swenzel> I just built kernel 4.2 but I'm not sure if I did successfully add a local version modifier... would it be visible in the name of the produced .deb files?
[20:27] <daftykins> leo1986: yes, try it
[20:29] <leo1986> daftykins: doesn't work
[20:29] <leo1986> i cannot install .deb package
[20:29] <daftykins> leo1986: normally when people want help, they tell us what they did and what happened... "doesn't work" is useless.
[20:29] <daftykins> leo1986: so if you want help, be more descriptive.
[20:30] <daftykins> sure you can install a .deb
[20:30] <deepdeep> i'm trying to do-release-upgrade and it's failing because it can't find utopic here: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/ubuntu/dists/
[20:30] <deepdeep> and indeed, utopic is not there.
[20:30] <daftykins> deepdeep: that's because it's gone EOL
[20:30] <daftykins> !eol | deepdeep follow the last link
[20:31] <deepdeep> i'm trying to upgrade trusty
[20:31] <deepdeep> it wants to first go to utopic
[20:31] <daftykins> deepdeep: what do you want to be using?
[20:31] <leo1986> I'm sorry, a normal install by ubuntu software center it doesn't works (and I don't know why) so I've tryed with the terminal
[20:31] <deepdeep> i haven't decided
[20:31] <deepdeep> something newer
[20:31] <daftykins> leo1986: you didn't read enough of the guide, go back and read again.
[20:32] <daftykins> deepdeep: well trusty is LTS so i'd recommend staying there, actually.
[20:32] <deepdeep> obv
[20:32] <deepdeep> trusty is four years old
[20:32] <deepdeep> i want updated software
[20:33] <Pici> deepdeep: trusty is a little less than 2 years old.
[20:33] <daftykins> deepdeep: for what reason?
[20:33] <daftykins> 14.04 came out April 2014 ;)
[20:34] <deepdeep> i want a new car
[20:34] <deepdeep> why? this one has wheels
[20:34] <deepdeep> you don't need a new car, you current one has wheels
[20:34] <deepdeep> and a gas pedal
[20:34] <deepdeep> but newer cars have better wheels and gas pedals
[20:34] <deepdeep> so? what's wrong with yours?
[20:34] <daftykins> you're not being very sensible with these comments.
[20:34] <deepdeep> they are out of date
[20:34] <deepdeep> they are no longer state of the art
[20:34] <deepdeep> these wheels don't take corners like the new ones can
[20:35] <deepdeep> you aren't being very sensible, your car has wheels
[20:35] <newbie|2> Just upgraded to 15.10.  I have a Brother MFC6490CW that worked with 15.04, but doesn't seem to work with 15.10.  Xsane talked of a "invalid argument".  Anyone wanna help me?
[20:35] <Pici> deepdeep: Please drop the attitude.  If you want to upgrade to a supported release you'll need to upgrade to 14.10, then to 15.04 then to 15.10.
[20:35] <deepdeep> true, but they aren't state of the art anymore
[20:35] <daftykins> your commentary is ridiculous to be quite frank.
[20:35] <deepdeep> but the new wheels haven't really been tested yet
[20:35] <Pici> deepdeep: OR, you can wait until April  and upgrade directly to 16.04 OR you can reinstall 15.10.
[20:35] <deepdeep> well someone has to test them
[20:35] <Pici> deepdeep: drop it.
[20:35] <daftykins> ignored.
[20:35] <deepdeep> early adopters drive change in the world don't they?
[20:36] <evexus> Hi, just installed Ubuntu-gnome, Is there any way I can change the alt-tab switcher so that the currently selected window moves to the foreground.
[20:36] <deepdeep> you make too much sense
[20:36] <deepdeep> i know.
[20:36] <evexus> I already changed it so the applications are not grouped
[20:41] <pesari> evexus: you can probablynchange it with ccsm (compiz-config-settings-manager)
[20:42] <pesari> evexus: you may need to install a package calles compoz-plugins or something like that
[20:43] <zbouby2> hi all
[20:44] <daftykins> hello
[20:46] <willies952002> could someone pleace explain to me what is wrong here: https://gist.github.com/willies952002/f5aa1dd66f334557ab22
[20:47] <willies952002> *please
[20:47] <daftykins> you are using a dead release.
[20:47] <daftykins> !eol | willies952002
[20:47] <willies952002> I just installed it .-.
[20:47] <daftykins> then you had an old version
[20:47] <willies952002> also.. how am I supposed to update if I can't even update apt
[20:47] <willies952002> and yes, I know it's an old version
[20:48] <daftykins> then why didn't you download another?
[20:48] <willies952002> I'm out of disks
[20:48] <daftykins> far quicker to get a supported version and start again
[20:48] <daftykins> no flash drive?
[20:48] <willies952002> none available
[20:48] <willies952002> also... no transport to any stores
[20:48] <daftykins> willies952002: follow the EOLUpgrades link above
[20:51] <willies952002> okay... I'll just go back to my other partition
[20:53] <dmor> Hi guys, how are you? I've already visited this great channel and ask this question, but I think I didn't fully understand the answer. Sorry for asking again: I need to commit a network-based install of specific version which is 14.04.1. It's for appliance of a company I'm working with. Using Ubuntu mirrors over the net via the installer/preseed, w
[20:53] <dmor> ill always get the latest version, e.g. 14.04.3. What can be done in-order to install 14.04.1?
[20:54] <dmor> (I wanted to go with the "use the 14.04.1 ISO" in-order to create local repo and use it, but it's not working "so well")
[20:54] <kubast2> Which package suplies xsltproc ?
[20:54] <MonkeyDust> dmor  there's this http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
[20:54] <drmagoo> After some upgrading I have an issue with my keyboard in grub. I cant enter any text/password for my encrypted lvm's. BUT ctrl+alt+del works to reboot the system (when looking at the password-box for Luks/lvm). anyone got any suggestion?
[20:54] <kubast2> I'm pretty much sure it's not libxml2-dev
[20:54] <ioria> http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/14.04.0/
[20:54] <dmor> MonkeyDust - 10x. I've been there. How it's helps? it's contains ISOS, not the contents itself
[20:55] <ioria> sorry,  http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/14.04.0/
[20:55] <MonkeyDust> http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/trusty/
[20:55] <daftykins> dmor: is it the 3.13 kernel you need, or what element?
[20:56] <dmor> You know what? before answering, I want to make sure I understand and don't waste your time.
[20:56] <dmor> Does the difference between 14.04.1 and 14.04.3 is newer Kernel, newer X and security patches?
[20:56] <dmor> Is it true to say that?
[20:56] <daftykins> yes
[20:56] <MARCIN> Hi, I want to boot into Ubunto on my pc, but there comes the login screen instead of the desktop?
[20:56] <dmor> OK. The installation is very "sensitive" because it's for a client of mine which installs custom-made appliances.
[20:57] <daftykins> 14.04.3 media would come with the 3.19 kernel and newer X from vivid (15.04)
[20:57] <daftykins> however, 14.04.0 and 14.04.1 would install with the 3.13 kernel and can still be dist-upgrade'd to be named 14.04.3 - yet still use the 3.13 kernel and original X
[20:57] <dmor> There's conding/QA phases and switching from 14.04.1 to 14.04.3 is currently problematic. I've installed Foreman in-order to commit network installs and I must find the way to install 14.04.1
[20:58] <daftykins> wasn't it over a week ago that you asked last?
[20:58] <dmor> I've told it on the first sentence ;-). I don't sure I understood the terms and differnces.
[20:59] <daftykins> dmor: well here's your plan of action: go and install 14.04.0 media on a test system, test the product - now dist-upgrade so it's 100% up to date, then test again.
[20:59] <dmor> I must find a solution that invloves 14.04.1 and it's versions, not 14.04.3. Google doesn't have a lot to say about it so I'm trying to understand if it's doable or not. It's must be per my own understanding. There are a lot of companies uses specific Ubuntu version, isn't it?
[20:59] <DammitJim> when does ubuntu install tomcat7's /usr/share folder?
[20:59] <DammitJim> I deleted the folder, then purged tomcat7 but the folder isn't there :O(
[21:00] <daftykins> because purge removes, it doesn't reinstall.
[21:00] <dmor> daftykins - 10x. So it's the same answer again ;-) - use the newest version. What will happen if every two weeks (just kidding) a new version will appear?
[21:00] <dmor> You know if it's possible to use specific minor version or not? from the techincal perspective?
[21:00] <daftykins> dmor: then your company will have to learn how to develop properly
[21:01] <daftykins> you need to keep up to date.
[21:01] <MonkeyDust> dmor  the appliances should be able to be used in newer versions, otherwise it's poor coding
[21:01] <daftykins> dmor: but like i said, an updated 14.04.0 *or* 14.04.1 is totally different to a fresh installed 14.04.3
[21:01] <dmor> MonkeyDust - 10x.
[21:02] <dmor> daftykins - can you please explain or paste the explanation? I've missed it I guess....
[21:02] <MARCIN> Hi, I want to boot into Ubunto on my pc, but there comes the login screen instead of the desktop?
[21:02] <dmor> daftykins: You're talking about dist-upgrade?
[21:02] <k1l_> MARCIN: well, log in?
[21:03] <daftykins> dmor: no, you already know it - a 14.04.3 ISO comes with the newer kernel, whereas an updated 14.04.0 *or* 14.04.1 will not have that kernel installed if you dist-upgrade.
[21:03] <MARCIN> with which login data? I havent created an account, i just want to boot and test it
[21:03] <k1l_> MARCIN: how did you make the live usb?
[21:03] <dmor> Maybe I'm missing something about "dist-upgrade". What exactly is it doing? (it's OK to tell me go to Google ;-))
[21:03] <MARCIN> i dl the iso and then made the stick with rufus
[21:04] <daftykins> dmor: dist-upgrade installs all the latest packages, but it does not install a HWE stack (new kernel and X)
[21:04] <MARCIN> the stick works with my notebook, but not with my pc. Could it be a problem with my nvidia 750ti?
[21:04] <dmor> Oh! got it! ;-)
[21:04] <dmor> lsb_release -a will show what?
[21:04] <daftykins> dmor: so i say again, go and test your company's product with 14.04.1 updated fully :)
[21:04] <k1l_> MARCIN: try "ubuntu" and blank password.
[21:04] <daftykins> dmor: it will still say 14.04.3, but "uname -r" will show the 3.13 kernel
[21:04] <k1l_> MARCIN: but i dont know what rufus did wrong there
[21:05] <dmor> You mean full install 14.04.1 with apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade?
[21:05] <daftykins> !info linux-generic trusty | dmor
[21:05] <daftykins> dmor: yes
[21:05] <dmor> 10x a lot! but the mega question:
[21:05] <dmor> How can I install 14.04.1 from the network? it's exactly the problem i've started with ;-)
[21:05] <MARCIN> ok, and could you tell me, if i enter sudo apt-get update/upgrade, will only ubuntu itself be updated or also the software like office and stuff i downloaded manually?
[21:05] <daftykins> dmor: no idea, but just go and test a single system with the company product first, as otherwise there is no point spending hours getting a network install working
[21:06] <drmagoo> After some upgrading I have an issue with my keyboard in grub. I cant enter any text/password for my encrypted lvm's. BUT ctrl+alt+del works to reboot the system (when looking at the password-box for Luks/lvm). anyone got any suggestion?
[21:06] <daftykins> MARCIN: all of it
[21:06] <k1l_> MARCIN: all packages will be upgraded
[21:06] <dmor> daftykins - thanks a lot. I really appreciate your help. Do you any idea which IRC channel could provide answer for such internal-install-related question?
[21:06] <daftykins> MARCIN: yes the 750Ti must be booted with 'nomodeset' typically.
[21:06] <dmor> Because again - this is my MAIN question and I'm just trying to understand if it's possible or not...
[21:07] <MARCIN> ok, then i will try enter ubuntu and empty password
[21:07] <OerHeks> dmor, install over network, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Server_and_network_installations
[21:07] <daftykins> dmor: #ubuntu-server might have more experience with PXE installs, but probably here is fine - i just don't personally have any experience
[21:07] <I-am-Groot> Hello, So i installed Mobile Partner for Ubuntu a while ago and everything seemed okay except for the voice call feature which didnt work. I also noticed that whenever i open terminal and entered "sudo -s" It no longer asked for my password. Now am a little worried as to if it could compromise my security in anyway?
[21:07] <dmor> 10x a lot!
[21:07] <dmor> Your help is really apprecaited!
[21:07] <MARCIN> what is nomodeset and how do i do it? I only boot with uefi window, so how can i do it?
[21:08] <dmor> Thanks for your patience
[21:08] <OerHeks> sure there are more docs about pxe-boot
[21:08] <dmor> OerHeks - 10x alot. I'm afraid these links are great but don't answer my specific question.
[21:08] <dmor> (install 14.04.1 and not 14.04.3)
[21:08] <dmor> 10x.
[21:09] <OerHeks> dmor, err, install without updates, but why do you need that old state?
[21:09] <OerHeks> use pxe service with that iso, which is not downloadable i think.
[21:11] <I-am-Groot> .....
[21:12] <Bashing-om> dmor: For your reference: "lsb_release -a >> Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS ; sysop@1404mini:~$ uname -r >> 3.13.0-66-generic ; dpkg -l xorg >>  1:7.7+1ubuntu amd64 . --- 14.04.1 install remains on the installed hardware stack when upgraded to 14.04.3 .
[21:12] <MonkeyDust> I-am-Groot  is that for ubuntu phone?
[21:12] <I-am-Groot> Nope... Ubuntu Desktop
[21:12] <DammitJim> no, I installed it again
[21:13] <DammitJim> and it didn't create that folder with the libraries
[21:13] <alfonso> que mal internet
[21:13] <daftykins> alfonso: english please
[21:13] <alfonso> bye bye
[21:13] <jijiro> Hello. When I start my machine, screen with question for password for encrypted disc appears (which is correct), but I cannot type password (also laptop doesn't respond to any pressed key). Before last use (when I started proprieatary ATI drivers) everything worked fine. How to fix this issue?
[21:14] <inteus> !es | alfonso
[21:14] <daftykins> jijiro: which fglrx? repo, or download?
[21:15] <inteus> jijiro: did you type password and hit enter? I don't think it shows anything while typing the password
[21:15] <MonkeyDust> I-am-Groot  what is the package name for that?
[21:15] <DDR> yayyy my computer starts again
[21:15] <DDR> All my stuff is here.
[21:16] <jijiro> daftykins: fglrx (not fglrx-update). Setuped in Device Manager.
[21:16] <MonkeyDust> DDR  and at NSA ;)
[21:16] <wileee> ;)
[21:16] <DDR> Drat, I was hoping they only got the stuff on my windows partition.
[21:17] <DDR> Thanks for your help yesterday, wileee.
[21:17] <wileee> sure, heh no problem
[21:18] <I-am-Groot> I dont believe it has .deb package or whatsoever. Here is a link http://askubuntu.com/questions/323396/how-to-install-huawei-mobile-partner-21-in-ubuntu
[21:20] <jijiro> Internet13: I did type password and pressed enter, nothing happens.
[21:20] <jijiro> inteus:  I did type password and pressed enter, nothing happens.
[21:20] <AndChat264089> Hi guys,  I'm running ubuntu14 on a laptop which froze 30mins ago. Since doing a hard reset I've been unable to get back into my system. The solutions posted online don't seem to work for me
[21:21] <jijiro> inteus: There is Ubuntu loading 4 Dots picture above password form, without animation.
[21:21] <bekks> AndChat264089: there is no "Ubuntu 14". There is Ubuntu 14.04 and 14.10 - and 14.10 is EOL. So which one are you using?
[21:21] <AndChat264089> Authority file that is mentioned on the forums don't exist.
[21:21] <AndChat264089> 14.04lts
[21:22] <daftykins> jijiro: try the other, likely AMD drivers and encryption do not go together.
[21:23] <jijiro> daftykins: What do You mean by "other"?
[21:24] <daftykins> jijiro: well as you said yourself, there is 'fglrx' and 'fglrx-updates'
[21:24] <AndChat264089> I currently in guest mode. Completely locked out of the main user area
[21:24] <jijiro> daftykins: Yes, but how can I change it without logging into my Ubuntu account?
[21:25] <daftykins> jijiro: recovery mode, boot to root shell
[21:25] <daftykins> !recovery
[21:27] <jijiro> daftykins: I would rather turn back to open dirvers,which worked- I don't have time to experiment with new driver now.
[21:27] <NYTimes> hello again I have 2 screens but it goes full screen on the wrong one
[21:28] <daftykins> jijiro: then the approach is exactly the same, boot to the root shell via recovery mode, then remount the disk read-write, then "sudo apt-get purge fglrx* "
[21:28] <jijiro> daftykins:  Thank You for support.
[21:29] <daftykins> no problem :)
[21:29] <drmagoo> After some upgrading I have an issue with my keyboard in grub. I cant enter any text/password for my encrypted lvm's. BUT ctrl+alt+del works to reboot the system (when looking at the password-box for Luks/lvm). anyone got any suggestion?
[21:29] <Bashing-om> AndChat264089: Run a file system check/repair ?? .. as a "hard reset" may have left the file system in an inconsistent state. At the login screen key combo ctl+alt+F1 to gain a console interface; can you login as "you" here ?
[21:30] <daftykins> drmagoo: are you sure it's just not showing you each keystroke being entered?
[21:31] <g105b> What are the scrollbars called in 15.10? They are not overlay-scrollbar any more. I want to force a window to use this new behaviour rather than the GTK-style they seem to have right now
[21:32] <drmagoo> daftykins: yes, quite sure. Nothing hapends after I hit 'enter'. it just hangs
[21:32] <creyc> anyone know if there even exists a decen ubuntu-compatible file manager with a webui?
[21:33] <daftykins> creyc: what are you hoping to achieve?
[21:34] <creyc> just managing a directory of users files, not the whole system. copying, moving, renaming, that sorta thing
[21:34] <AndChat264089> @bashing-om I can login using the console. One of the messages reads: signature not found in keyring. Suggest to try ecryptfs-mount-private
[21:35] <Renfried> I am trying to use gparted on a live CD to resize my windows partition, but it says it is unable to read the partition correctly, I went to windows and defraged it, ad chkdsk is finding no errors. But when I look in Gparted it has an exclamation mark on it. The only way I can see to do it is to remove the windows partition and ubuntu ones, and resize them then reinstall them manually. But ideally ws looking for an easier way. Any suggestions?
[21:35] <Renfried> (mate 15.10)
[21:35] <cuss> @drmagoo looks like your initram doesn't support LUKS/LVM. Get into chroot/recovery/livecd, mount your system root w/boot and do "update-initramfs -u"
[21:36] <NYTimes> here is my xrandr http://pastebin.com/6qw2HSzH
[21:36] <Bashing-om> AndChat264089: encryption is a level of complexity I am not qualified to cope with, sorry ( might see what results in a file system check anyway ?) .
[21:36] <ukulele> hi, can anyone suggest me a good cpu temp live sensor to put it on my xubuntu panel? tnx (no Psensor)
[21:36] <daftykins> creyc: that is more suited to SSH.
[21:36] <goddard> Renfried: did you try running ntfs fix before making the changes?  Sometimes Windows does some strange thing to lock the drive.
[21:37] <Renfried> goddard: Yeah, found no error either
[21:37] <daftykins> Renfried: use Windows to resize Windows.
[21:37] <Renfried> ukulele: lm_sensors should work
[21:37] <badbodh> ukulele, xfce has its own sensor applet. run "apt-cache search xfce sensor plugin" and see what comes up
[21:38] <creyc> daftykins, currently using SSH yes, but trying to allow some less experienced (with command line) users to manage these files as well.
[21:38] <badbodh> don;t remember the exact package name
[21:38] <daftykins> creyc: SFTP.
[21:38] <Renfried> daftykins: Is it a native windows prog, or am I installing something from the net
[21:38] <daftykins> Renfried: diskmgmt.msc -> right click the volume -> shrink volume
[21:39] <badbodh> ukulele, you may also install "xfce4-goodies" it contains several handy applets
[21:39] <creyc> and truthfully, i've become a bit spoiled by the file manager webui on my NAS.
[21:39] <daftykins> Renfried: most likely this exclamation mark is due to Windows 8/8.1/10 not having been shutdown properly prior, but yes do it this way and don't use gparted i would say.
[21:39] <ukulele> should i install xfce4-sensors-plugin too?
[21:39] <ukulele> http://paste.ubuntu.com/12974296/
[21:40] <Renfried> its windows 7(although previously upgraded to 10 then downgraded again), and it was shut down properly, as I had just been in to defrag and chkdsk
[21:40] <onla> !ubuntu touch
[21:40] <onla> !touch
[21:40] <daftykins> Renfried: nevermind, statement stands :)
[21:40] <flipsidecreation> does anyone know of a check writing program for Linux?  I GNUCash can write them out but I am looking for a program that will place the MICR Routing numbers on the blanks
[21:40] <badbodh> ukulele, install xfce-sensors-plugin, goodies is actually a metapackage if i recall, it pulls in various xfce plugins as dependencies
[21:41] <AndChat|264089> When I enter ecryptfs-mount-private I am able to see my files again on the console. But can't as soon as I log out
[21:44] <NYTimes> here is my xrandr http://pastebin.com/6qw2HSzH because it goes fullscreen on the wrong one any help please ?
[21:47] <AndChat|264089> Is there a way to copy my files to another drive.
[21:47] <bekks> !backup | AndChat|264089
[21:47] <artois> AndChat|264089: what for?
[21:50] <drmagoo> I think I've found the problem. /boot was on a separate partition, and fstab supports that. But fot some reason the system is ignore that and has create a new /boot on the root-partition. But the system still boots from the old partition causing all changes I make to be ignored. How can I correct this ?
[21:52] <EriC^^> drmagoo: did you chroot to install something?
[21:52] <daftykins> drmagoo: by moving the actual /boot onto the physical /boot and updating fstab
[21:52] <EriC^^> sounds like you chrooted and didn't mount /boot and installed stuff
[21:53] <AndChat|264089> ubottu: I can't currently sudo. The system no longer recognises my password despite me not changing it. So of those methods which would be best?
[21:53] <onla> !convergence
[21:53] <drmagoo> EriC^^: dont think I did, did a 'do-release-upgrade'
[21:53] <onla> is there a irc room for ubuntu convergence?
[21:54] <AndChat|264089> Artois: my system has pretty much locked me out
[21:54] <EriC^^> AndChat|264089: use the recovery mode to reset the passwor
[21:54] <EriC^^> *password
[21:56] <drmagoo> daftykins: how do you mean?
[21:57] <hgth> Is the MinimalCD able to boot into a live system?
[21:58] <k1l_> hgth: no
[21:58] <hgth> k1l_: thanks
[21:58] <badbodh> hgth, it's a minimal cd. 'minimal' :D
[21:59] <hgth> badbodh: the live cd used to be a cd and not a dvd
[21:59] <bekks> hgth: things are changing over time.
[22:00] <EriC^^> hgth: you want a live system that fits on a cd?
[22:00] <hgth> EriC^^: I do
[22:00] <AndChat|264089> EriC^^: can't get into recovery mode now.  It goes straight to the Ubuntu screen
[22:00] <AndChat|264089> Losing my mind now
[22:00] <EriC^^> hgth: lubuntu 14.04 is like 700mb or less i think
[22:00] <EriC^^> check releases.ubuntu.com
[22:01] <loa> can somebody explain how i can build this http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.3-rc6-unstable/
[22:01] <k1l_> hgth: the 90s called, they want their cd-burner back :)   no. most (if not all) user use usb sticks today. a lot of devices dont have cd-slots anymore.
[22:01] <loa> maybe somebody know article or have ready to go script...
[22:01] <k1l_> hgth: no chance to use a usb pendrive?
[22:01] <bekks> loa: to go script what?
[22:02] <hgth> k1l_: The computer doesn’t boot from USB
[22:02] <loa> bekks, "ready to go", "ready to use"
[22:02] <EriC^^> hgth: you can use plop to boot usb's i think
[22:02] <k1l_> hgth: then you want to use Lubuntu anyway.
[22:02] <Coordinador> hola
[22:03] <bekks> loa: there is a READ which points you to the relevant resources.
[22:03] <hgth> EriC^^: Lubuntu 14.04.3 is 750 Mb. That’s still too big but thanks
[22:03] <bekks> hgth: fits on a 800M CD-R.
[22:04] <loa> bekks, i read all that information... i did my own directory with sources... i did apply patches. i have problem with building now.
[22:04] <hgth> bekks: If only we had a 800 Mb CD-R
[22:04] <loa> i know how ot build... but i don't think i do this right.
[22:04] <bekks> loa: why dont you just use the binaries?
[22:05] <badbodh> sadly most cd-s are 650-700 mb in capacity. flash drive is best and quickest way.
[22:05] <loa> and main problem that patches are not applied perfectly...
[22:05] <EriC^^> hgth: it says 694mb here
[22:05] <EriC^^> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/14.04.3/release/lubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[22:05] <EriC^^> 32bit version http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/14.04.3/release/lubuntu-14.04-desktop-i386.iso
[22:05] <loa> bekks, i need few patches, i need 4.3 + ureadahead + little patch for i915
[22:05] <daftykins> drmagoo: you have two /boots... consolidate them.
[22:06] <EriC^^> AndChat264089: hold shift to get grub
[22:06] <drmagoo> daftykins: got that much =) but do I remount the old /boot then?
[22:06] <hgth> EriC^^: Thanks. Before starting the BitTorrent, it told me the file was 750 Mb. Strange.
[22:06] <daftykins> drmagoo: by updating fstab...
[22:06] <hgth> I’ll see how big the HTTP downloaded file will be
[22:07] <EriC^^> could be MiB and mb stuff
[22:07] <drmagoo> daftykins: to point to what? (Sorry for the dumb questions ;) )
[22:07] <daftykins> drmagoo: or you mean now to check it? standard mount in the terminal, use "mount" to check what's already mounted, then put it on /mnt temporarily to mess with it
[22:08] <daftykins> yeah i'm not sure how hard this sounds, you've got A and B, you need to put B into A then update fstab :P
[22:08] <hgth> EriC^^: Oh I hate it!
[22:08] <EriC^^> hgth: hate what?
[22:08] <EriC^^> lubuntu?
[22:09] <hgth> EriC^^: The whole Mb and MiB confusion
[22:09] <EriC^^> yeah
[22:09] <EriC^^> sucks
[22:09] <hgth> EriC^^: Lubuntu seems quite cool though I never used it
[22:10] <EriC^^> it's pretty minimal, it's quick and clean though
[22:10] <EriC^^> it's pretty too i guess
[22:10] <daftykins> nah ;)
[22:11] <EriC^^> file manager is nice :P
[22:11] <panda11> Can anyone tell me where I can download the template aMule webserver?
