[00:50] <ceed^> Hi, after the latest update this evening wi-fi stopped working. It's grayed out. I can still connect over ethernet. What could be wrong?
[00:58] <ceed^> When I do "rfkill list" I'm told that wifi is hard bloced and I can not unblock it

[16:10] <Anonymauz> how to install bumblebee on 15.04 ? my X server doesn't start after reboot. My method works fine with 14.10 tho!

[16:11] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: bumblebee is outdated, use nvidia-prime
[16:11] <Anonymauz> why outdated? not supported with systemd or what?
[16:12] <Anonymauz> nvidia prime gives same result tho
[16:12] <k1l> installing the nvidia driver from the ubuntu repo will bring nvidia-prime
[16:12] <Anonymauz> isn't it proprietary? i mean nvidia-prime
[16:12] <Anonymauz> well
[16:12] <k1l> Anonymauz: bumblebee was the workaround until prime was released by nvidia
[16:12] <k1l> so try the nvidia driver from the ubuntu repo
[16:13] <lotuspsychje> k1l: wanna join #ubuntu-discuss?
[16:13] <Anonymauz> i opened driver updates application once i installed ubuntu, i pressed INSTALL opposit the "recommended" tip. After that X doesn't start too x|
[16:13] <Anonymauz> i must be loser of the world, what i am doing wrong
[16:13] <Anonymauz> what i should install? i have 2 videocards, just reminding.
[16:13] <k1l> hey lotuspsychje. i dont take part in -discuss or -offtopic these days. maybe in some future, thanks
[16:14] <lotuspsychje> k1l: ok mate no sweat :p
[16:14] <Anonymauz> u say nvidia driver. u mean nvidia 346.59?
[16:14] <k1l> Anonymauz: there are some different drivers. depends on your exact hardware what to use best
[16:15] <Anonymauz> i checked out nvidia website. it says last version for my hardware is nvidia346.59
[16:15] <Anonymauz> so that i should apt-get intall nvidia-346?
[16:15] <Anonymauz> or nvidia-346 nvidia-settings nvidia-prime whatever... just sure my x won't start again
[16:16] <k1l> lspci gives what?
[16:16] <Anonymauz> or i should only apt-get install nvidi
[16:16] <Anonymauz> lspci | grep VGA
[16:16] <Anonymauz> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09)
[16:17] <Anonymauz> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK107M [GeForce GT 650M] (rev a1)
[16:18] <Anonymauz> so what
[16:18] <Anonymauz> can you give a tip how to deal with all that?
[16:19] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: did you install ubuntu with internet+updates enabled during setup?
[16:19] <Anonymauz> i am 80% sure i toggled that box
[16:20] <Anonymauz> i am fucked up :O
[16:21] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: dont loose hope too soon
[16:21] <Anonymauz> i tried three different ways, neither of them worked.
[16:21] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: try another driver from your additional driver list
[16:22] <lotuspsychje> and install nvidia-prime
[16:22] <Anonymauz> http://imgur.com/nH3DN7l i got this
[16:22] <Anonymauz> in driver manager
[16:22] <Anonymauz> install it manually, right?
[16:22] <Anonymauz> well, it may work. cuz i did nvidia driver install from application and nvidia prime installation separately.
[16:23] <Anonymauz> first driver, then prime, then reboot. right?
[16:23] <Anonymauz> i need nvidia-settings btw?
[16:23] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: just try prime first and reboot
[16:24] <Anonymauz> okay right, thanks for tip
[16:24] <Anonymauz> how to test it btw?
[16:24] <Anonymauz> if it works i mean
[16:25] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: what makes your grafix work best
[16:25] <Anonymauz> how to backup? purge nvidia-*?
[16:26] <Anonymauz> cuz it's only laptop xD
[16:26] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: dont purge drivers, just switch from additional drivers
[16:26] <Anonymauz> mkay, rebooting..
[16:29] <Anonymauz> rebooted. no nvidia settings app tho..
[16:30] <Anonymauz> how to switch
[16:31] <Anonymauz> tried prime-select nvidia
[16:31] <Anonymauz> says
[16:31] <Anonymauz> Error: the installed packages do not support PRIME
[16:31] <Anonymauz> Error: nvidia mode can't be enabled
[16:37] <Anonymauz> i ll try install driver from app again..
[16:44] <Anonymauz> Well. X didn't start
[16:44] <Anonymauz> Prime says nvidia is current card
[16:45] <Anonymauz> That sucks so much..
[16:46] <lotuspsychje> !info nvidia-current
[16:46] <ubottu> nvidia-current (source: nvidia-graphics-drivers-304): Transitional package for nvidia-current. In component restricted, is optional. Version 304.125-0ubuntu2 (vivid), package size 4 kB, installed size 36 kB (Only available for i386; amd64)
[16:47] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: did you remember wich driver worked on your 14.10?
[16:47] <Anonymauz> 304 kek
[16:48] <BluesKaj> Anonymauz, run dkms status
[16:48] <Anonymauz> How to restore my pc now
[16:48] <Anonymauz> Runned
[16:48] <Anonymauz> I am from android so i can make typo
[16:48] <BluesKaj> pastebin the output please
[16:48] <Anonymauz> Bbswitch installed
[16:49] <Anonymauz> Nvidia-346 too
[16:49] <Anonymauz> So does vboxhost
[16:51] <Anonymauz> How to restore? Aptget remove nvidia-346?
[16:51] <BluesKaj> 346 is too experimental for most cards, the 340 driver should be the correct driver for most nvidias
[16:52] <Anonymauz> So i remove 346 and apt install 340?
[16:52] <BluesKaj> Anonymauz, yes
[16:52] <Anonymauz> Should i delete xorgconf before it?
[16:53] <Anonymauz> Or rename whatever. Googled that it may cause problems
[16:54] <BluesKaj> no but you can run nvidia-xconfig after installing
[16:55] <BluesKaj> if you want a xconf file that is
[16:56] <Anonymauz> Ok i ll try
[16:59] <Anonymauz> Lol what a fancy crap .
[16:59] <Anonymauz> Failed to fetch repo..
[17:02] <Anonymauz> Maybe it's kubuntu trouble? If that can matter ofc..
[17:05] <Anonymauz> Well, 340 giefs blackscreen
[17:06] <Anonymauz> If i startx, i get errorz
[17:06] <k1l> dont use startx
[17:06] <k1l> start the lightdm, or the other thingy that kde uses now
[17:07] <k1l> did you install the bumbelbee stuff again?
[17:07] <Anonymauz> Btw if i run dkms status it says not nvidia installed but added
[17:07] <Anonymauz> Weird
[17:07] <k1l> does your video card require nomodeset?
[17:07] <k1l> does it load the nvidia module?
[17:07] <Anonymauz> Nvidia-340.76:added
[17:08] <Anonymauz> What you meaN 'it'
[17:09] <k1l> your system?
[17:09] <Anonymauz> Kubuntu 15.04
[17:09] <k1l> several possible issue mentioned now. so go on the hunt :)
[17:10] <Anonymauz> Why its Added?
[17:10] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: you also might wanna press F1 at boot to see where it stucks
[17:10] <Anonymauz> I inst
[17:11] <Anonymauz> Ok 1 sec
[17:11] <k1l> Anonymauz: what are you talking about?
[17:12] <Anonymauz> F1 remove splash screen? Or safe mod
[17:12] <Anonymauz> Cuz this fucker just loaded!
[17:14] <Anonymauz> Opened app
[17:14] <Anonymauz> It says nvidia is on. Gonna test it
[17:17] <Anonymauz> Can i install glxgears mesautils or that will fuck up nvidia prime?
[17:17] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: plz keep the channel family friendly
[17:17] <Anonymauz> Sorry i apologize.
[17:22] <anonymauzz> my wine doesn't work now with new driver, how that could be?
[17:24] <anonymauzz> seems like my opengl's gone. well, gonna solve it on my own :> thanx for help guys, i owe you very much
[17:30] <Anonymauz> If glxgears giefs 60 fps - that should be nvidia right?
[17:32] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: sudo lshw -C video and check after driver= wich driver loaded
[17:33] <Anonymauz> Nvm found wow, ran it on wine, driver works perfect
[17:33] <lotuspsychje> Anonymauz: so can you tell us how you fixxed it now
[17:34] <Anonymauz> But your command says intel tho.. Interesting
[17:35] <Anonymauz> I installed 340, it didnt load
[17:36] <Anonymauz> But after few reboots it did somehow
[17:36] <Anonymauz> So i don't know is that fix
[17:39] <Anonymauz> Now it switches to intel automatically xD
[17:42] <Anonymauz> Maybe i ll try lower driver
[17:56] <Anonymauz> Now driver manager giefs nothing. Weird too
[17:58] <Anonymauz> Tried install 331.. Badumtssss kernel 4 not supported
[18:11] <Anonymauz> Why it says driver in use nouveau if i removed it?
[18:12] <k1l> because it couldnt load the nvidia one and will fall back to nouveau.
[18:12] <Anonymauz> Thx

[21:45] <rektide> i have a recent (week old?) nightly. when i ssh into it, i don't have hardly a thing. chiefly, i'd really really really like a dbus user session.
[21:46] <rektide> i tried copying units from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd/User#D-Bus in hopes of having a socket activated bus, but i still don't see anything show up in my envs if i ssh in (after adding those units, rebooting, and ssh'ing in)
[21:46] <holstein> you are ssh'ing into a live box?
[21:46] <holstein> you should be able to install what you want, but, i would expect limiatations..
[21:47] <rektide> i am ssh'ing into my workstation, and i would like access to a dbus-session of any kind when i ssh in. i use git-credential-gnome-keyring extensively, and i need to be able to use that while ssh'ing in.
[21:48] <holstein> rektide: your workstation will have whatever it has, if the live iso is the "client".. it'll just be connecting via ssh
[21:48] <rektide> holstein: fine whatever sure yes of course. how do i use systemd to get a dbus session for my users?
[21:48] <rektide> please help
[21:49] <holstein> rektide: sure.. and now that you are not referencing the nightly live iso, but, your workstation OS, you can look at what is needed on your server-side on your workstation to facilitate your needs
[21:50] <rektide> my workstation is a week old vivid
[21:50] <holstein> rektide: what are you trying to accomplish? more of a remote desktop connection?
[21:50] <holstein> rektide: sure, you are ssh-ing into 15.04, as well.. i understand.. what are you trying to do there via ssh?
[21:50] <rektide> git push.
[21:51] <rektide> which relies on git-credential-gnome-keyring. which relies on dbus.
[21:51] <holstein> rektide: sure.. you would just connect via ssh, and do whatever you do via git
[21:51] <holstein> rektide: if its a "normal" desktop install, with a GUI, you'll have, or have access to add what you need easily
[21:52] <rektide> i guess i need to reiterate this for the third time?
[21:52] <holstein> rektide: i would personally seperate these issues out.. i would see that i can do what i want to do from the workstation via GIT, then, work on doing that from the workstation in the terminal, *then* just connect via ssh and do the exact same thing
[21:53] <holstein> rektide: you can answer this, friend.. can you git push in the terminal on your workstation? yes or no? if no, then, you are not going to be able to do that via ssh, when connected from another machine
[21:53] <rektide> i can use git just fine from a gui session on the workstation
[21:53] <rektide> yes
[21:53] <holstein> so, you can address being able to git push from terminal on that workstation
[21:53] <holstein> rektide: sure. *not* from the GUI. otherwise, connect with a remote desktop solution, and GIT push in the GUI that works on the workstation
[21:54] <holstein> when you can git push from the terminal, then, you will easily be able to do that via ssh
[21:54] <holstein> i would reference any commandline specific information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Git
[21:56] <rektide> how do i get to a virtual-terminal term? control-alt-f1 &c isn't switching me to a term
[21:56] <rektide> this is not X behavior i'm familiar with
[21:57] <holstein> !tty
[21:57] <ubottu> To get to the TTY terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login). To change the resolution for your TTY, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution
[21:57] <holstein> though, i have had issues with that in the past with one particular GPU..
[21:57] <holstein> you can just use *any* terminal emulator, though, in whatever 15.04 version you are running.. gnome-terminal or terminator..
[21:58] <rektide> if type 'env|grep DBUS' in a terminal inside the gui, I get a result
[21:58] <rektide> if i type the same ssh'ed in, i get nothing
[21:58] <rektide> that's the root of what dogs me right now
[21:58] <holstein> rektide: sounds like your users have different permissions
[21:58] <rektide> i thought you were asking me to do the same from a console vterm. which i can't seem to get to, in spite of following !tty directions
[21:58] <rektide> it's the same user
[21:58] <rektide> it's how you've setup systemd
[21:59] <rektide> it's ubuntu not me
[21:59] <holstein> rektide: though, as is suggested, *dont* ssh in.. just do a git push from the local machine in the terminal..
[21:59] <rektide> do this with a bonestock ubuntu and you will certainly see the same thing
[21:59] <rektide> it works
[21:59] <rektide> i can git push from Terminal
[21:59] <holstein> rektide: above, you stated you did it in the GUI, not the terminal
[21:59] <k1l> rektide: i think you might need to file a bug and see what the devs think about it
[21:59] <holstein> !bug
[21:59] <ubottu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.
[21:59] <rektide> by gui, i meant a Terminal in the gui
[22:00] <holstein> rektide: id be glad to confirm the behavior, as i am in 15.04 right now
[22:01] <holstein> when you are ssh'd in, you will have "limitations" based on your ssh config file, but, if you are the same user, you should have the same setup..
[22:02] <rektide> Ubuntu still relies on an archaic /etc/X11/Xsession.d/75dbus_dbus-launch to commence dbus
[22:03] <holstein> i know, patches are usually welcome upstream
[22:03] <rektide> if you can help me fix the fact that my /etc/systemd/system/[email protected]/dbus.conf that i linked to when i first posted doesnt work
[22:03] <rektide> i'll gladly submit
[22:03] <holstein> you should be able to do the same as you do via ssh as you do locally.. if not, then why? that would be my question
[22:04] <rektide> i see the socket activated dbus session , and i can use it, it just doesn't show up in my env
[22:04] <holstein> rektide: you are saying, that works, when you are local to the machine, just not via ssh as the same user, correct?
[22:05] <rektide> holstein: i just told you why not. do you want me to explain to you what /etc/X11/Xsession.d/75dbus_dbus-launch is for, what it does, and why it means my env doesn't have dbus when i ssh in in a much longer form to you?
[22:05] <rektide> i'm happy to explain these mechanism if you don't get them
[22:06] <holstein> rektide: good luck, friend.. if it were me, i would try and replicate this behavior on a supported 14.04 or 14.10 version, from a live iso, and file a bug, regardless
[22:08] <rektide> those aren't systemd
[22:08] <rektide> i'm not interested in the old world
[22:08] <holstein> cheers, and i hope you can find someone to help you.. with 14.04, you can broaden your scope of assistance to the #ubuntu channel.. or a server channel.. i personally can do all i do from the ssh session as a local user, but, if you want to start and link a bug report, id be glad to confirm a bug
[22:08] <rektide> cheers, thanks
