Any ideas ? Should I add any particular modules in the initramfs conf ?
zzero1 2017-03-06 05:46:06
I dont have any lvm
mangjuan007 2017-03-06 05:48:37
@OerHeks: yes, and i think i'm having problems with updating too. it says, 'Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.'
ducasse 2017-03-06 05:52:22
mangjuan007: probably a temporary mirror problem, try another or wait.
mangjuan007 2017-03-06 05:53:34
@ducasse: its seems like its the case. i'm just try it again later
semitones 2017-03-06 05:54:47
hi hi! If my ubuntu machine's name is "foo" can I ping "foo" ?
semitones 2017-03-06 05:54:54
"ping foo"
semitones 2017-03-06 05:55:11
or do I have to ping 192.168.1.xx ?
ducasse 2017-03-06 05:55:27
semitones: did you try?
semitones 2017-03-06 05:55:32
yeah and it doesn't work
semitones 2017-03-06 05:55:38
I can't ssh into it that way either
semitones 2017-03-06 05:55:52
I am wondering if it should be possible, and if so, how to get it to work that way
ducasse 2017-03-06 05:56:31
semitones: then you need a local dns server or host files on each machine
semitones 2017-03-06 05:56:57
alright i'll duckduckgo a guide
ducasse 2017-03-06 05:57:15
semitones: host files are by far the easiest
ducasse 2017-03-06 05:57:39
semitones: just add ip and hostname to /etc/hosts
semitones 2017-03-06 05:58:25
ducasse, do I have to do something on the router also?
ducasse 2017-03-06 05:59:59
semitones: no, you just edit your host file on the machines you want to ssh from. there might be a way to use built-in functionality on the router instead, depends.
tatertots 2017-03-06 06:00:46
host files are your path of least resistance/easiest....anything else and you are getting yourself into obviously "unfamiliar" waters of network administration
semitones 2017-03-06 06:06:27
Ok here's a question -- what if I have two routers, but they're connected to each other? Can I still do the host files method
ducasse 2017-03-06 06:06:58
semitones: the routers don't matter, host files are looked at first
ducasse 2017-03-06 06:07:08
semitones: at least by default
semitones 2017-03-06 06:08:06
also it seems like the device is connected via wlan0 to 192.xxx.x.xx and to eth0 as 169.xxx.xxx.xx
akik 2017-03-06 06:08:19
semitones: the dnsmasq process on your machine reads the hosts file and serves entries from it, but you need to do this on each machine
semitones 2017-03-06 06:09:24
hmm, so if my goal is to connect to this device via SSH and never have to check what IP its on, and also for it to stay always connected, is it best to make a hostfile on every machine in the network, or just assign a static IP?
ducasse 2017-03-06 06:09:55
semitones: you need a static ip for hostfiles to work

I'm using ubuntu 16.10. When I put the machine to sleep and then restart it, the window control icons in each window appear as fuzzy colored spots instead of complete icons. I searched online but have yet to find anything on this. Has anyone seen something similar?

9 11 attacks, Did USA do it itself or it just let it happen?Did USA administration murder 3000 American citizen in 9 11 attacks to justify starting a war against iraq?If al-qaeda did it, why go to kill 2 million Iraqi?http://creatvchaos.blogspot.com.eg/ https://creatvchaos.wordpress.com/Some of the benefits Americans say they achieved after 9 11 attacks include:*constant flow of oil, which
nicomachus 2017-03-06 06:21:34
lovely
pac1 2017-03-06 06:22:15
yeah, lack of evidence = proof.
ducasse 2017-03-06 06:22:19
"i'm a crackpot, please read these links"
Pici 2017-03-06 06:22:27
Anyway, they're gone, lets move on.
pac1 2017-03-06 06:23:03
yup. more substantive problems like why my window control icons are pontilistic.
pac1 2017-03-06 06:23:33
how do I adjust unity preferences?
nicomachus 2017-03-06 06:23:53
what do you mean by "preferences"?
nicomachus 2017-03-06 06:24:12
There is Unity Tweak Tool and then there are System Settings
pac1 2017-03-06 06:24:25
Unity tweak tool.... maybe that.
pac1 2017-03-06 06:24:37
System Settings has nothing that I can see.
nicomachus 2017-03-06 06:24:55

pac1, what is your GPU ?
pac1 2017-03-06 06:26:44
Here's another one. What happens to my system when booting between 13.418712] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): enp3s0: link becomes ready... and the next line in dmesg: [ 98.392227] cgroup: new mount options do not match the existing superblock, will be ignored
nacc 2017-03-06 06:27:07
pac1: IPv6 negotiation?
nacc 2017-03-06 06:27:28
pac1: that seems like an inordinate delay, but we have as much info as you :)

OerHeks 2017-03-06 06:31:15
pac1, so did you define a NSF share in your fstab or something?
OerHeks 2017-03-06 06:32:34
or wait, 5 seconds is not unusual
nacc 2017-03-06 06:33:01
OerHeks: NFS :)
nacc 2017-03-06 06:33:20
pac1: yeah, NM waiting 5s is fine, that's doesn't correspond to the above lines afaict
nacc 2017-03-06 06:33:38
pac1: which implies 85s of delay
OerHeks 2017-03-06 06:33:53
yeah, "new mount options do not match the existing superblock"

syslog is filling up with IA__gtk_widget_get_visual: assertion 'GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
pac1 2017-03-06 06:35:30
I'll bet that's the window icons getting trashed.
