tatertots: I was planning on giving an extra couple of gigabit links into the SFP ports on my switch
alias_neo 2017-01-27 06:48:54
tatertots: from the server
SynfulAck 2017-01-27 06:48:56
nacc, i didnt use pip to install the stuff, i used the package manager.
nacc 2017-01-27 06:49:28
SynfulAck: yes, read the docs to see how to configure it, please
nacc 2017-01-27 06:49:36
SynfulAck: specifically "Tmux statusline"

Hi, I get dropped to initramfs by Grub2. I would like to unlock my LUKS drive via cryptsetup but the command is not available. Is there a module missing?
wyre 2017-01-27 06:50:38
what do you think about use that to ubuntu server 16.04? http://askubuntu.com/questions/57220/start-vboxheadless-vm-at-startup
SynfulAck 2017-01-27 06:50:45
nacc, yeah but for the repository root it wants me to use pip.
nacc 2017-01-27 06:53:37
SynfulAck: powerline contains: /usr/share/powerline/bindings/tmux/powerline.conf

pavlos: right now its bridged.i have managed to change.but even now i am not getting it.. any fix for this?
pavlos 2017-01-27 06:55:14
koen_, I dont use vmware, it was a suggestion. I have no way of testing this
nacc 2017-01-27 06:56:21
SynfulAck: or you could have done what I said earlier and just read the shipped documentation: /usr/share/doc/powerline/README.Debian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23876011/
SynfulAck 2017-01-27 06:56:35
nacc, got it now, path is different and discovered you dont even need a legit tmux.conf
koen_ 2017-01-27 06:57:04
anyone else?
SynfulAck 2017-01-27 06:57:12

tatertots 2017-01-27 06:58:22
alias_neo: what protocol did you plan on using to accomplish this task?
alias_neo 2017-01-27 06:59:40
tatertots: tcp/ip?
tatertots 2017-01-27 07:00:02
alias_neo: i don't see it listed in the datasheet http://www.qlogic.com/Resources/Documents/DataSheets/Adapters/Datasheet_2400Series_FCAdapter.pdf
tatertots 2017-01-27 07:02:33
alias_neo: you might be better served by obtaining some additional 10/100/1000 network adapters that connect via a slot on the board or even usb 3.0
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:03:50
tatertots: That would be unfortunate, the goal was to free up two of the existing ports on my Ubnt switch by switching the server to the fiber channel and I could use the currently unused SFP ports on the switch
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:05:21
Is there likely to be anything I can use the connection between this card and my switch for? Even if I re-imlpement my ZFS pool using them, or am I just trying to use incompatible hardware? In which case I just wasted a bit of cash on some useless kit ;)
tatertots 2017-01-27 07:05:55
alias_neo: according to http://www.qlogic.com/Resources/Documents/DataSheets/Adapters/Datasheet_2400Series_FCAdapter.pdf that would be using the hardware outside of it's use case as per the manufacture, not saying you can't but it's so far out in "unsupported" land..you'd be out there by yourself in doing so
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:07:40
tatertots: The fact they supply the following software is what gave me the idea it'd work; "FC-FCoE, iSCSI, and Ethernet Networking drivers"
wyre 2017-01-27 07:09:18
hi guys, I've not wired connection in gnome-control-center
tatertots 2017-01-27 07:09:44
alias_neo: the ip portion is encapsulated, you would have to do and be able to do some heavy duty reverse engineering to work that out..depending on how much your time is worth (to you) it might be worth trying
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:10:54
tatertots: It's worth too much to bother with that, I'll just buy another card.
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:11:06
tatertots: Anything you can suggest I look at in particular?
tatertots 2017-01-27 07:13:07
alias_neo: hmmm if your goal is truly to 'free up ports on switch' ......i'd suggest obtaining an additional switch
gusgg_ 2017-01-27 07:13:29
I have some files in /etc and I'd like to know which package put them there.
tatertots 2017-01-27 07:13:50
alias_neo: i know the cost thing is there...but you did say you needed to free up ports....as in you do not have enough ports
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:14:03
gusgg_: dpkg -S /etc/stuff
gusgg_ 2017-01-27 07:14:16
EriC^^: thanks, I'll give this a try
tatertots 2017-01-27 07:14:36
alias_neo: and when one does not have enough ports on ones switch...one would obtain a additional switch to increase port density/capcity
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:15:29
tatertots: Absolutely understand, but this is for home use, I'm trying to learn,play and hopefully take advantage of a couple of free SFP ports on my new switch
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:15:57
tatertots: obviously I haden't realised how different FC was to anything else i've used before
RWOverdijk 2017-01-27 07:16:31
Quick, probably stupid question. I want to install kubuntu on a laptop I _just_ bought, but does it matter if I use UEFI or legacy?
RWOverdijk 2017-01-27 07:16:42
It seems that legacy would be easier, but maybe it's also worse. I don't know.
tatertots 2017-01-27 07:16:46
alias_neo: the card you have is designed for enterprise class storage
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:17:56
tatertots: Yeah, I probably picked up the wrong one, I'd read around about some "old" FC cards that could be repurposed for 1G home fibre
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:18:11
tatertots: From what you're saying, this is the wrong card
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:20:59
tatertots: Is there a freeware OS I could hook this up with to use it to create a SAN then? Or am I still barking up the wrong tree?
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:21:04
RWOverdijk: uefi is 1sec quicker to boot
alias_neo 2017-01-27 07:21:07
say VyOS or something?
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:22:05
RWOverdijk: if you can install in uefi you might as well, isn't the laptop already with windows and uefi?
RWOverdijk 2017-01-27 07:22:16
EriC^^, it is.
RWOverdijk 2017-01-27 07:22:23
Also omaigosh a full second?
RWOverdijk 2017-01-27 07:22:47
I don't know anything about this uefi stuff. So I think it's easiest to go full legacy then?
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:23:13
lol
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:23:32
RWOverdijk: up to you
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:23:58
i was going to go on about why it's better but whatever i figured the might as well would be enough
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:24:34
"switched to wifi, so I might drop off" jup haha...
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:24:35
it's like trading in a new car for an old carb'd POS cause it's too complicated
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:24:38
EriC^^, sorry for that
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:24:58
np, just yanking your chain a little
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:25:18
But, if it doesn't change anything, why should I? Really curious, because the internet says don't use it. But it sounds like a til foil hat kind of guy
KristijanZic 2017-01-27 07:25:34
Hi! Is there some web api for snaps like there is for clicks like https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppStore/Interfaces/ClickPackageIndex ? I had some free time and have developed some ubuntu webstore in Angular just need to connect it to something if there is an api.
nacc 2017-01-27 07:26:01
KristijanZic: may want to ask in #snappy
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:26:20
"UEFI brings a heck of a lot of disadvantages with it and no advantages. Don't use it. You're basically giving away control of your own computer to corporations. Don't do that, that's a bad idea."
KristijanZic 2017-01-27 07:26:24
nacc: did that, no answer.
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:28:04
RWOverdi_: well here's the deal, it's the new bios, it's well thought out and way better than the old bios, but some companies make it a little difficult to install os other than microsoft
Amm0n 2017-01-27 07:28:31
RWOverdi_, that's right, but that's a little late. You already bought an UEFI device which only emulates legacy bios
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:29:27
RWOverdi_: it's not difficult to trick it into loading other os usually
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:29:58
Oh...
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:30:15
I'll attempt to install it with uefi after legacy
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:30:25
See if I can spot the difference
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:30:25
hp and lenovo are the most notorious ones for bad implementations
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:30:35
RWOverdi_: there is no real difference
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:30:43
It's a lenovo ideapad
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:30:50
(700)
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:31:03
Wait but, if there's no difference, why does it matter then?
nacc 2017-01-27 07:31:18
KristijanZic: it seems like you're getting answers just fine, maybe impatient?
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:31:19
I've dealt with noobs in my field so I know how frustrating I must be to you right now
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:32:09
Oh I think I already broke it
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:32:19
RWOverdi_: well you have more control over some aspects, like in bios there's just the mbr and it can hold only 1 bootloader, in uefi there's a efi partition which can have many bootloaders at the same time
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:33:14
Ah. But you usually only need one, right
ioria 2017-01-27 07:34:06
RWOverdi_, and maybe take a look at this : http://askubuntu.com/questions/743996/ubuntu-on-lenovo-y700-2016
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:34:16
well, if you remove ubuntu then you need a windows cd for instance if you hadn't backed up the mbr
KristijanZic 2017-01-27 07:36:08
nacc, that seems to be the case yes XD
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:36:48
EriC^^, I feel like I did something too quick then... And I already messed it up... It installed, it's set to legacy, but it's saying... media test failure
pitastrudl 2017-01-27 07:37:06

EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:37:40
blueking: ext4 is fine
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:38:07
RWOverdi_: you set the bios to legacy then installed ubuntu?
blueking 2017-01-27 07:38:07
tried google for add new hdd on ubuntu without gui
Amm0n 2017-01-27 07:38:13
blueking, make sure it got a GPT Partition table
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:38:16

RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:38:20
Yes

http://askubuntu.com/a/401605
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:38:34
with an internet connection?
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:38:34
I'll try this?
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:38:37
Yep
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:38:50
type "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999"
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:38:57
paste the link it gives you here
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:39:45
blueking: also type "sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999"
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:40:01
Ok
blueking 2017-01-27 07:40:16
what are 9999 ?
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:40:24
blueking: port number
Amm0n 2017-01-27 07:40:27
it
pitastrudl 2017-01-27 07:40:30
nevermind, had to also wipe the configs
pitastrudl 2017-01-27 07:40:32
works now
Amm0n 2017-01-27 07:40:36
nvm
blueking 2017-01-27 07:40:51
EriC^^ was that addressed to wrong guy ?
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:40:56
blueking: no

Hi, from Chile
blueking 2017-01-27 07:43:36
why would I need to connect net to install hdd ?
EriC^^ 2017-01-27 07:44:19
RWOverdi_: try setting a boot flag on the first partition just in case, and if it still doesn't work try some hdd settings in the bios
Amm0n 2017-01-27 07:44:25
blueking, it's to show us your actual partitionlayout
blueking 2017-01-27 07:44:30
ah
RWOverdi_ 2017-01-27 07:44:54
EriC^^, What's.. What's a boot flag?
