Ben64 2017-01-29 23:46:04
it could be bad software
Ben64 2017-01-29 23:47:01
yeah looks bad
hstl 2017-01-29 23:47:45

Hello, I have Ubuntu 12.10 installed, and i want to upgrade it but i am getting this error Failed to update repositories, please check your internet connection
CaptainMehul 2017-01-29 23:56:16
How do i solve this
Ben64 2017-01-29 23:56:46
!eolupgrade | CaptainMehul
ubottu 2017-01-29 23:56:46
CaptainMehul: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
Ben64 2017-01-29 23:56:56
but really, would be best to install 16.04 fresh
Ben64 2017-01-29 23:57:16
instead of doing a bunch of eol upgrades
k1l_ 2017-01-29 23:57:27
CaptainMehul: 12.10 is dead long time. and since you will have to do 3 upgrades repeatedly to get to a supported ubunut release i suggest you a reinstall
CaptainMehul 2017-01-29 23:58:25
Ok i will reinstall then. Thank you!

k1l_ 2017-01-29 23:59:36
well, if he is gonna be so annoying i doubt he will become a motu
Speiros 2017-01-29 23:59:47
a mofo maybe
FinalX 2017-01-29 23:59:50
more like SOTU
Speiros 2017-01-30 00:00:47
Should I retype the questions I typed almost an hour ago?
k1l_ 2017-01-30 00:01:15
Speiros: yes
Speiros 2017-01-30 00:01:18

Good evening people. I'd like to know some terminal commands regarding groups and users. 1) How do I add an existing user to this group? 2) How do I see what groups are in my system? Thanks:)
Speiros 2017-01-30 00:01:59
Oops, forgot to delete the intro.

"adduser username group" to add username to a group
k1l_ 2017-01-30 00:03:22
Speiros: compgen -g
k1l_ 2017-01-30 00:03:22
to list the groups
Speiros 2017-01-30 00:03:43
Ben64 and k1l_ Awesome. Thanks. I'll go try, and see how they go.
Speiros 2017-01-30 00:08:34
Ben64 and k1l_ Excellent. I successfully added a user to the group I'd named, but the group search, although listing many other groups, including one I'd made, didn't list the one into which the person I added into. It is named as a group, and I can see it with grep /etc/passwd though.
k1l_ 2017-01-30 00:11:05
Speiros: relogin
Speiros 2017-01-30 00:11:17
k1l_ Ok, cool.
Speiros 2017-01-30 00:12:04
k1l_ Worked a charm. Thanks, and Ben64 too:)

hi all, do people know about packetfence?
chalcedony 2017-01-30 00:43:17
my husband's ubuntu 16.04 failed to boot to a login - it shows his username but not the box to type his password. i told him to use ctrl-alt-del and restart it.. he got a box that says he might want to save first with an X in the top left corner, but no [yes] [no] or [save].. it just goes away and doesn't reboot
chalcedony 2017-01-30 00:44:02
someone else said he heard about the no ctrl-alt-del - but how do we fix it?
ppf 2017-01-30 00:45:05
chalcedony: if you just wish to reboot: hit ctrl+alt+f1 to get another tty. login there and type reboot
