when a package installed with either apt or dpkg how to know where all the files are stored? I am looking for shared libraries of libboost pkages library files
ppf 2017-01-30 02:51:04
dpkg -L

Apparently, it's been too long since I last did anything with Ubuntu. eth0 is now ens3, so far, so good. I'm looking for guidance towards adding an extra ip and configuring ipv6. This is server 16.10.
ppf 2017-01-30 02:52:16
jink: what's the specific problem
jink 2017-01-30 02:52:50
ppf: I can't seem to configure an extra interface (eth0:0?) and ipv6.
ppf 2017-01-30 02:53:04
alright, why not?
jink 2017-01-30 02:53:37
I'm guessing it should be ens3:0 ?
ppf 2017-01-30 02:54:35
probably :)
jink 2017-01-30 02:55:13
ppf: Do I configure my ipv6 on the interface, or the virtual, or both?
k1l 2017-01-30 02:55:47
jink: the kernel(or was it systemd) changed to the new naming scheme for network devices some time ago and ubuntu and debian did that change recently, too.
ppf 2017-01-30 02:55:53
one address per NIC
ppf 2017-01-30 02:56:44
*and per addressing scheme (aka v4 v. v6)
jink 2017-01-30 02:57:42
Ok, so I have no idea what I changed, but it seems to work now. I think I broke it somewhere along the line, and flushing everything seems to've helped. Both ipv6 addresses do end up on ens3, though. But the ipv4 goes to ens3 and ens3:0 .
ppf 2017-01-30 02:58:10
jink: fwiw, if you want to have multiple addresses for a nic, there's no need to create aliases
jink 2017-01-30 02:59:06
ppf: Well, it's a single nic, obviously. Can I just repeat the "address" section on an iface?
ppf 2017-01-30 03:00:37
no, one iface block per address alias
ppf 2017-01-30 03:01:14
check out man interfaces
jink 2017-01-30 03:01:44
Then what aliases do you mean in "multiple addresses for a nic, there's no need to create aliases"?
jink 2017-01-30 03:01:48
I'll check the man page.
ppf 2017-01-30 03:02:05
interface aliases
ppf 2017-01-30 03:02:11
is what i meant there
jink 2017-01-30 03:03:32
Ah, ok, I thought you meant ensx:y
rifter 2017-01-30 03:03:57
okay I forgot and can't find the right answer - what packages do I need to install to be able to use opengl in a program? I did install mesa-utils and glxinfo gave an error "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig"
ppf 2017-01-30 03:04:07
jink: i did, that's an interface alias
jink 2017-01-30 03:05:30
ppf: Then I don't get it. Run this by me again, if you will. I can't have more than 1 address on an iface. But I can repeat "iface esn0 inet static \ adress ..." ?
ppf 2017-01-30 03:07:31
you can have multiple addresses on one NIC. the legacy way was to create a 'virtual' NIC (ens0:1) and configure it. today, with ip, you can directly configure multiple addresses, by repeating the iface stanza
jink 2017-01-30 03:07:38
ppf: I guess I'm too used to ifconfig. :)
jink 2017-01-30 03:07:42
Yes, got it.
jink 2017-01-30 03:07:46
Thanks for your help.

rifter: are you chatting from the computer right now?
rifter 2017-01-30 03:09:15
tatertots, yeah and I forgot to mention I am on lubuntu 16.10 (but the instructions should be the same as for other ubuntus)
tatertots 2017-01-30 03:09:50
rifter: sudo apt install inxi pastebinit
tatertots 2017-01-30 03:10:02
rifter: let me know once it's completed
rifter 2017-01-30 03:10:06
ok I will do that now
rifter 2017-01-30 03:11:36
both are now installed tatertots
rifter 2017-01-30 03:11:51
among other things that got pulled in with them

there you go tatertots
k1l 2017-01-30 03:17:20
its an old SIS card. they are a real pain to work with
rifter 2017-01-30 03:17:30
yeah
rifter 2017-01-30 03:17:48
is that going to be part of it? hat you need a 3d driver?
rifter 2017-01-30 03:17:59
er I mean a proprietary one or whatever
k1l 2017-01-30 03:18:42
"There is no DRI/OpenGL/3D support for the SiS 6326, 5597/5598, 530/620, 315, 550, 650, 651, 740, 330, 661, 741, 760, 761 including all model variations with letters in the model number."
tatertots 2017-01-30 03:18:44
rifter: the module for your video card failed to load properly
rifter 2017-01-30 03:18:53
there you go. Oh well

rifter 2017-01-30 03:20:00
I guess I wil have to leave that for a real machine :) thanks guys
tatertots 2017-01-30 03:20:25
rifter: those old sis cards aren't going to net impressive 2d/3d performance
rifter 2017-01-30 03:20:30
I forgot what the built in graphics were on this
rifter 2017-01-30 03:20:49
well yeah, but I mean to use it for pretty light stuff like dosbox and fceux
rifter 2017-01-30 03:21:21
the only impressive thing about this machine is what I can do on it at all :)
tatertots 2017-01-30 03:21:33
rifter: (WW) Warning, couldn't open module sis
tatertots 2017-01-30 03:21:50
rifter: (EE) Failed to load module "sis" (module does not exist, 0)
rifter 2017-01-30 03:22:39
tatertots, I thought what kil was pointing to is a nonexistence of the kind of drivers I'd need
sirv 2017-01-30 03:22:49
i still have an 3dfx card that has 2d graphics passthru
rifter 2017-01-30 03:23:00
haha
tatertots 2017-01-30 03:24:39
rifter: nonexistence goes right along with the error in your logs (EE) Failed to load module "sis" (module does not exist, 0)
rifter 2017-01-30 03:25:32
yeah
rifter 2017-01-30 03:26:03
what about sdl video
rifter 2017-01-30 03:26:08
can I still do that?
rifter 2017-01-30 03:29:58
oh looks like I have sdl libraries installed already
rifter 2017-01-30 03:30:00
anyway thanks guys
heftig 2017-01-30 03:43:04
where can i find old versions that were in xenial-updates but are no longer?
