sruli 2017-02-23 07:55:50
when changing user passwd from commandline does it update ecryptfs?
kierqueen 2017-02-23 07:58:58
hi
kierqueen 2017-02-23 07:59:22
I opened a music rythmn box, and I closed it , nad now it is running in the background ? how do i get rid of it ?
kierqueen 2017-02-23 07:59:31
Can't close that crappy songs guys
nacc 2017-02-23 07:59:54
sruli: no, your user's password is unrelated to your disks encryption passphrase
sruli 2017-02-23 07:59:59
kierqueen: just hit pause, it always runs in background
kierqueen 2017-02-23 08:00:20
yes did manage to pause
kierqueen 2017-02-23 08:00:43
but how do I close rythmbox in the volume control? Can I ?
sruli 2017-02-23 08:01:08
nacc: i am talking about users ecryptfs home dir, when changing pass in gui, it does update it, i want to know if it also updates it when changing from command line
sruli 2017-02-23 08:01:17
kierqueen: no doenst close
timetrex 2017-02-23 08:02:20
any git ninjas out there? #git is the walking dead right now.
ioria 2017-02-23 08:03:35
sruli, nope
sruli 2017-02-23 08:03:56
nacc:ioria: found the answer, it does not, reason being any user with elevated privileges can change your pass and get access to encrypted doc (gui requires to enter current pass) http://askubuntu.com/a/640157/483497
OerHeks 2017-02-23 08:04:22
kierqueen, rhytmbox stays active, it is a Feature, you will find it in the sound icon top panel
ioria 2017-02-23 08:04:26
sruli, if you change from cli, you need to reverse it again
OerHeks 2017-02-23 08:05:17
timetrex, try #git ?
OerHeks 2017-02-23 08:05:57
timetrex, but that is the support channel, i think they are not waiting for your news
timetrex 2017-02-23 08:06:11
what?
timetrex 2017-02-23 08:06:32
#git is all zombies
OerHeks 2017-02-23 08:06:56
timetrex, fine, keep this channel clear for ubuntu support, thanks.
timetrex 2017-02-23 08:07:45

lubuntu 16.04 fresh install, i have no sound "amixer" gives output "amixer: control default open error: no such file or directory"
ioria 2017-02-23 08:24:01
sruli, you should have an alsamixer gui in sound&movie ... iirc
faLUCE 2017-02-23 08:24:28

ioria: "The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/hanipouspilot/rtlwifi/ubuntu yakkety Release' does not have a Release file"
compizzzzz 2017-02-23 08:37:33
in my syslog
compizzzzz 2017-02-23 08:37:47
system has two nvidia gtx1080s
ioria 2017-02-23 08:37:55
faLUCE, thought you were on xenial
compizzzzz 2017-02-23 08:38:07
im running slightly behind drivers as i need to for cuda 8.0
faLUCE 2017-02-23 08:38:33
ioria: should I compile it?
ioria 2017-02-23 08:39:22
faLUCE, maybe but look llike the git source is broken too
nicomachus 2017-02-23 08:39:22
hanipouspilot.... I've used that one before.
nicomachus 2017-02-23 08:39:42
ohhhh that rtlwifi fix. That's not necessary anymore, AFAIK
ducasse 2017-02-23 08:39:51
sruli: can you pastebin output of 'aplay -l'?
compizzzzz 2017-02-23 08:40:55
may be to do with proprietary drivers?
sruli 2017-02-23 08:42:42
ducasse: ioria: it is hdm termbin.com/5hjb
ioria 2017-02-23 08:42:44
faLUCE, no, it compiles git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu
jpthing 2017-02-23 08:43:09
what?
jpthing 2017-02-23 08:43:52
That is a GIT site
nacc 2017-02-23 08:44:20
jpthing: and?
nacc 2017-02-23 08:44:26
jpthing: that wasn't directed at you, in any case
ioria 2017-02-23 08:44:27
faLUCE, the issue seems with modprobe the module
jpthing 2017-02-23 08:45:55
That doesn't tell me what it compiles to. It tells me what your compile compiled to. It is folly to assume they are the same.
