Need help. I am trying to build a packge. The build intsturations suchs I need openmotif. HOw do I isntall openmotiff? It says: "ida uses Motif 2.x features (utm, render tables). This means you need openmotif, lesstif does *not* cut it."
OerHeks 2017-03-06 09:53:04
Zythyr, old package, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openmotif/
paddyez 2017-03-06 09:53:21
so I am the only ine that can not use chromium anymore
OerHeks 2017-03-06 09:53:57
paddyez, i guess so, reinstall chromium perhaps?
paddyez 2017-03-06 09:54:30
OerHeks: I did apt install --reinstall already
paddyez 2017-03-06 09:54:52
do I need to purge?
OerHeks 2017-03-06 09:55:24
paddyez, you purged the config manually already, so i guess it is oke.
OerHeks 2017-03-06 09:55:58
paddyez, if you see normal pages on an other browser, i have no clue there.
paddyez 2017-03-06 09:56:25
hm OK

I'm trying to install ubuntu but everytime the installer shows a modal dialog the whole UI locks up and stops responding to input (can still move the cursor but that is all)
MonkeyDust 2017-03-06 10:01:40
chilversc what's in the dialog?
chilversc 2017-03-06 10:01:49
just the standard disk partition buttons
chilversc 2017-03-06 10:02:00
eg, partition size, drop down for type, etc
MonkeyDust 2017-03-06 10:02:03
chilversc from dvd or usb?
chilversc 2017-03-06 10:02:03
usb

anyone have any idea why when i do apache2ctl -S it lists this one domain but when i try to a2dissite the domain it says it doesn't exist?
MonkeyDust 2017-03-06 10:03:34
chilversc can you show a screenshot? use imgur.com
elias_a_ 2017-03-06 10:06:49
OT: if you use a camera to take a pic of the display can it be called a screenshot?

Hey guys, when a package says "Depends:blah on (= 1.0) but 1.0.1 is to be installed, is there a way to say that it's ok for it to beequal or greater, instead of exactly equal too?
MonkeyDust 2017-03-06 10:07:31
elias_a_ chilversc not sure what s/he means by 'a dialog', that's why i'm asking
chilversc 2017-03-06 10:08:20

hi all, i am trying to dual boot windows on my ubuntu disk. when I try to install i get an error that it cant setup was unable to create a new partition or locate the existing one. does anyone know how to fix this without deleting my ubuntu partition?
MonkeyDust 2017-03-06 10:11:50
chilversc partitoning is the hardest part if you're new ... my advice: in the live session, use gparted to create partition, first
dl21 2017-03-06 10:11:59
i did that
MonkeyDust 2017-03-06 10:12:06
partitions*
dl21 2017-03-06 10:12:21
i sharnk my ubuntu partition and created space for windows but the install will not proceed
dl21 2017-03-06 10:12:28

OerHeks 2017-03-06 10:17:33
dl21, "A Windows OS should be installed first," says our wiki .. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
insiad 2017-03-06 10:18:03
elias_a: ?
OerHeks 2017-03-06 10:18:14
elias_a, if you have an issue there, join #ubuntu-ops
dl21 2017-03-06 10:18:37
OerHeks, I understand thats how i should do it usually but I already have ubuntu installed on this drive. Are there any ways around? I will send fdisk output asap
elias_a 2017-03-06 10:18:43
OerHeks: Ty
OerHeks 2017-03-06 10:20:17
dl21, as explained there, windows might wipe the hdd as it does not recognize ext4
OerHeks 2017-03-06 10:20:49
* which is a good thing, malware-wise
insiad 2017-03-06 10:21:44

Need help. In Terminal when I use teh command "su" it is asking me for password. WHen I put in password it says Authentication failure. WHen I use sudo I my password works. But when I use su, it doesn't work
snophey 2017-03-06 10:27:04
have you tried doing "sudo su"?
Bashing-om 2017-03-06 10:27:04
dl21: If I am not mistaken ( not Window literate ) Windows will not install onto a logical partition . Is that what you are attempting ?
OerHeks 2017-03-06 10:27:12
Zythyr, sudo -i # is the ubuntu way to obtain root for the whole terminal session
Pici 2017-03-06 10:27:37
snophey, Zythyr: theres no good reason to use sudo su, if you want an interactive sudo session, use sudo -i

I bricked my computer :( I added 2 nvidia cards. The drivers weren't showing up under additional drivers (Pretty sure I had the 367 version on there already) so I tried to apt get install nvidia-current and now I can't log in. It says trying to recover journal then goes back to the login screen. I tried booting off a USB but it says gfxboot.c32 is not an image
Exagerado 2017-03-06 10:31:09

Zythyr 2017-03-06 10:31:30
OerHeks Do I need to do "sudo -i -c "make install"" instead of "su -c "make install""?
Exagerado 2017-03-06 10:31:46
Pici: lol... sorry about that :)
boze 2017-03-06 10:32:23
Shouldn't have messed with it on a work day : /
snophey 2017-03-06 10:32:52
Zythyr "sudo make install" should do the trick
Zythyr 2017-03-06 10:35:15
snophey But why is my password not working when i do su
snophey 2017-03-06 10:36:02
Zythyr: from ubuntu wiki: By default, the root account password is locked in Ubuntu. This means that you cannot login as root directly or use the su command to become the root user.
Zythyr 2017-03-06 10:36:46
snophey Ohh okay thank u :)
OerHeks 2017-03-06 10:37:22
Zythyr, sudo make install, or sudo -i , make install
genii 2017-03-06 10:37:36
Zythyr: If you require elevated priveleges to run something as root, use either sudo or else sudo -i ...do your root things, when done: exit
Zythyr 2017-03-06 10:39:23
Thank u for the clarification. :)

Mathisen 2017-03-06 10:41:39
doltek, you could explain your problem in a little more detail and it would help

My Samsung monitor, I can only see the cursor at the top of the screen and then it disappears
ppf 2017-03-06 10:43:05
for completeness, answering my own question (from the redhat docs): The cron daemon checks the /etc/cron.d/ directory every minute for any changes.
