http://askubuntu.com/questions/698395/poor-io-performance-pcie-nvme-samsung-950-pro mentions making sure the starting block on the partition is divisible by 4096. Not sure where to do that

I've just mixed a project down in ardour. What's the best way to get it from wav to mp3? I need to stick it somewhere for the singer to grab it, and wav is too big
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:47:00
tfitts: Gparted takes care of that for you
waltman 2017-01-31 15:47:42
I just ran sudo apt upgade; sudo apt upgrade and installed a few packages. About a minute later a window popped up saying I needed to update a few other packages apt hadn't listed, including nautilus and firefox. Then it said I needed to reboot.
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:48:15
craigbass76: you need to install libmad
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:48:33
from the universe repo
waltman 2017-01-31 15:48:35
Two questions: 1) Why do I need to reboot if there's not a new kernel? 2) Why don't I see the second group of packages in the apt logs?
waltman 2017-01-31 15:49:42
Also why do new packages sometimes appear in a popup window instead of just appearing when I run apt from the shell?
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:49:47
craigbass76: you should use ogg has its in line with freesoftware principles
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:50:46

Beau4K: not a problem for me, but this guy's a non-computer geek singer. Not sure what device he'll be checking with, and what it will read. When he comes over Thursday I'll just send him home with a cd, but I wanted to give him a listen ahead of time
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:56:09
convert to aac
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:56:51
im sure your friend being a musician uses apple
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:57:26
aac gives better compression that mp3
Beau4K 2017-01-31 15:59:11
even 64kbps sounds goodish

anyone know how to convert hevc 10bit without loss to x264 every file in a particular folder through terminal?
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:13:46
ive got all the codecs installed
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:13:51
including ffmpeg
wudo_honour 2017-01-31 16:15:47
hi\
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:16:22
CasualNixUser: if you've got the ffmpeg command down for 1 file, you can make a loop to do all of them
wudo_honour 2017-01-31 16:16:28
how can I make up bond0 with eth0,eth1 in ubuntu 16.04 ?
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:16:49
can you show me how to do it the command and loop?
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:19:45
CasualNixUser: well, the ffmpeg command will probably be something like this: ffmpeg -i SOURCE_FILE -c:v libx264 -preset ??? -tune animation -c:a copy DESTINATION_FILE
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:20:25
CasualNixUser: where preset is dependent on how long you want this to take (slower is generally higher quality) and SOURCE and DESTINATION need to be what the original file is called and what you want the converted file to be called
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:20:48
(also, i'm asuming this is anime because i've never seen anything else use 10bit :P)
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:21:09
yea basicallly its just my android tv doesnt have hevc support
Beau4K 2017-01-31 16:21:19
some porn uses 10bit
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:21:38
so for 0 loss what would you put for preset/
PhantomPhreak53 2017-01-31 16:21:41
I have a new ubuntu 16.04 server that I am going to be using as an FTP server. I want when I type adduser user. It creates there home directory to be root:root and create a folder called upload. What is the best way to achieve this? Can i just put a chown command in an existing script
craigbass76 2017-01-31 16:22:04
Beau4K: Nope, he's a singer and a lumber salesman. Probably got an iPhone and maybe an XP box at home. lame -h bass_drums_rhythm.wav bass_drums_rhythm.mp3 did it for me.
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:22:16
CasualNixUser: so start from that and see if it does what you want. And if it does, head over to #bash to see about putting it in a loop. Make sure to specify precisely what the original files are named like, and what you want the resulting files to be named
_28_ria 2017-01-31 16:22:23
k1l_: After reading of many mans and searching on the inet, didn't find any help, except for many people, having the same problem. None of the answers to them worked (I've tried). Also, I've looked through options in all of apt.conf.d/ files Tried changing some params, but didn't help. Stumbled upon a command: 'apt-config dump'.
Beau4K 2017-01-31 16:23:04
craigbass76: iphone plays aac just fine
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:23:15
CasualNixUser: you can read over this https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/H.264 I myself typically use "slower", but i'm not sure if that is lossless
craigbass76 2017-01-31 16:23:37
Beau4K: Is there an open source phone yet?
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:23:46
i would use ifme but im running ubuntu in vm while the actual os im running is arch and i think it would be bit to slow on vm to use ifme
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:23:48
CasualNixUser: i'm usually going the other way... old xvid or divx to h264 since my kodi machine doesn't have support for the older stuff but does for h264
_28_ria 2017-01-31 16:23:50
k1l_: Looks like, it dumps all the configs, currently set, in a normalized facion. Looked through all of them. Found this option: 'Binary::apt::APT::Keep-Downloaded-Packages "0"'
craigbass76 2017-01-31 16:23:52
Sounded like Ubuntu was "kind of" scrapping it
Beau4K 2017-01-31 16:24:12
ubuntu phone is kinda opensource
Beau4K 2017-01-31 16:24:26
but still uses blob
craigbass76 2017-01-31 16:24:30
A banker fried was telling me firefox phone were closer to being adopted in the US than the ubuntu one, but I stopped paying attention
Beau4K 2017-01-31 16:24:30
drivers
craigbass76 2017-01-31 16:25:09
All mine does is text, make calls, and read twitter, so I don't much care what the OS is
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:25:14
i did try to do use yaourt -S ifme but ya its not there lol only windows and ubuntu
craigbass76 2017-01-31 16:25:24
But I would rather an Ubuntu phone than Android
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:25:27
how much slower would it be in vm ubuntu to convert?
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:25:51
CasualNixUser: not much difference i wouldn't think. Depening on how many cpu's you gave to the VM, of course
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:26:05
more cpus = faster conversion
Beau4K 2017-01-31 16:26:30
CasualNixUser: way would you need ubuntu on a vm?
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:27:06
because ifme is easier to use than ffmpeg command line but there is no package made for arch and there is for windows and ubuntu
hggdh 2017-01-31 16:27:15
PhantomPhreak53: why would you want to use FTP and create root-owned files?
Beau4K 2017-01-31 16:27:37
theres no ffmpeg in arch?
hggdh 2017-01-31 16:27:41
PhantomPhreak53: real bad move, security-wise
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:27:44
there is
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:27:47

bickolus 2017-01-31 16:27:47

CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:28:00

bickolus 2017-01-31 16:28:08

CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:28:25

bickolus 2017-01-31 16:28:34

bickolus 2017-01-31 16:28:43

bickolus 2017-01-31 16:28:52

Beau4K 2017-01-31 16:29:25

CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:30:07
didnt think of that LOL
bickolus 2017-01-31 16:30:16

_28_ria 2017-01-31 16:32:06
k1l_: That option wasn't in apt.conf* files, so I've added it to apt.conf with parameter 1, then checked with command apt-config dump, saw, that it changed there to "1", tested installing some package with 'apt', and it worked! Packages were kept in archives folder.
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:32:10
dont think itll let me upload 2gb files each
bickolus 2017-01-31 16:32:35

wedgie 2017-01-31 16:33:02
CasualNixUser: did the command I gave you not work?
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:33:38
i did wonderfully i was just hoping to in the program since it could do it all it once
CasualNixUser 2017-01-31 16:33:46

bickolus 2017-01-31 16:33:54

hattrick99 2017-01-31 16:39:14
Hello
hattrick99 2017-01-31 16:40:01
I accidentally type my password on command line.
rmviewer 2017-01-31 16:40:05
Hi! I used to be able to ssh into one of my servers (outside my network) and then ssh into another local box. I can't do this anymore. Any ideas why? I haven't changed any of the settings on either box.
hattrick99 2017-01-31 16:40:16
So i found it in bash_history and deleted the line
hattrick99 2017-01-31 16:40:29
but control-r still finds it.. so does up arrow..
hattrick99 2017-01-31 16:40:33
how do I remove that?
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:40:45
hattrick99: history -c
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:40:59
also, it'll probably not show up if you open a new terminal
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:41:12
rmviewer: can't do which?
darkhack 2017-01-31 16:41:46
hello
darkhack 2017-01-31 16:41:57
hello all
rmviewer 2017-01-31 16:41:59
Yeah, that wasn't very clear. I can't ssh tunnel into the 2nd box. I get `Permission denied (publickey).`
hattrick99 2017-01-31 16:42:00
but where is it right now?? i mean.. its somewhere!!
darkhack 2017-01-31 16:42:03
asem ge
MarcoP 2017-01-31 16:42:22
hattrick99, if you run bleachbit it should find all that...depending on your settings
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:42:31
rmviewer: are you forwarding your key agent? ssh -A
rmviewer 2017-01-31 16:42:34
I assume that ssh-agent should take care of forwarding the original key for me.
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:42:50
rmviewer: only if you use -A or otherwise configure it in your ~/.ssh/config
rmviewer 2017-01-31 16:43:27
I never had to -A before. But that still doesn't work anymore. My config doesn't disallow agent forwarding. I'm completely at a loss.
rmviewer 2017-01-31 16:43:43
Verified that I can directly ssh into box 2
wedgie 2017-01-31 16:44:20
rmviewer: try ssh -v to get some more debug information
