So what's the problem with LXC?
@reversiblean I have no idea. Remove the package. powerd is a system daemon that helps manage power states on the phone by providing a DBUS API. Ynd your Laptop isn't a phone
Does anyone know?
a) Why I can never, ever log in to AskUbuntu?
b) Why the {expletive deleted} AB has the strictest password requirement of any site on the planet.
What is it? A front for the CIA?

I'm getting a bit nervous here, I have a ubuntu server and somehow all my logs got cleared yesterday. in addition to that something is messed up with my SSH, my ssh key etc is okay, but my computer alarmed me that the key of the host changed, and I can't log into my server using my private key anymore (it still works with password though), does someone have an idea what could be wrong here?
it kinda feels as if it would not check within the ~/.ssh folder for the keys, but instead somewhere else
@danielwinter Not an area of expertise of mine as well, but what do you mean with cleared? No logs at all? Many logs do rotate. No idea on the SSH issue though.
I've added a few hostnames in /etc/hosts to resolve to my LXD container:
$ less /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 HOST
lemh 10.0.3.219
pma.lemh 10.0.3.219
wp.lemh 10.0.3.219
But ping, getent ahosts or Firefox cannot resolve them. I don't want to res...
@kos the files were here, but they were empty. All of them. Not even the auth file had something in it (which it should after a failed ssh login attempt, right?.) The nginx log folder was removed aswell, instead there was an empty nginx log file which caused nginx to fail at startup
@danielwinter That looks very strange (and creepy). Try asking a question, your issue will be more visible as a question than as a message in the chat. Maybe someone can give an explanation for that.
Should this be closed? I've got the feeling that it's not quite an hardware malfunction, but rather the fact that a jack is recognized as inserted, and disables the speakers: askubuntu.com/review/close/486502
I have two notebooks, an old Asus with xubuntu, and a newer Lenovo. All my work is on my Asus notebook. I have xubuntu installed on it. If I swap the hard disks, will my xubuntu still work on the new machine?
@StefanoPalazzo I think so as well. I'm not sure if all the voters voted because they thought that turning auto-mute off (like OP stated he did) should have fixed that already. I don't know if auto-mute is the only thing that plays a role there. Shrug
@StefanoPalazzo Your name and surname are definetly Italian though :)
to be honest, yes. i did. and thats currently the only way i can logon to my server as it doesnt seem to recognize the ssh keys (although they are in the .ssh folder)
i have fail2ban active tho, and the password is more than 30 chars
@StefanoPalazzo I couldn't image that, I only have 1 public repo and that is a pure css and js package, nothing deep. I also never published one of my 2 private keys anywhere
> You can download the latest SteamOS from Softpedia, but please keep in mind that if you choose the image and not the installer, you're going to need a 1TB partition or drive.
My machine has two ethernet ports. I want to give VMWare exclusive use of Eth1.

@danielwinter I'm not sure what /r is, but there are little arrows to the right of every message. Click on one and it will link your reply to that message.
@StefanoPalazzo nothing too special. but there are a few ssl certificates on it and my private work files, but nothing you could really harm me with (besides of breaking NDAs ^^)
Okay I've re-opened the question. I'm sure that's a software thing and something you can do in Ubuntu. We have a lot of questions about that mute feature in alsa.
@StefanoPalazzo I beg to differ - read my comment to that effect. Isolating the sound jack from the sound card may be impossible by software, it may require isolating the sound card itself from the system which can nuke things (like the speakers too). In either case they should be getting hardware repair, not try and hack their way through it
@Seth Well the step seems short from reopening a community-closed question (5 people agreeing on closure) and from nullifying 4 close votes. Or I'm missing something?
@ThomasW. I see, I didn't know that. Well you always learn something.
@Oli Apparently OP tried that already, but with no avail. But I'm not sure whether there's another method. For example I don't know whether alsamixer could have been superseeded by something lower-level in that case, that's why I hesitated in voting to close.
Having found a lot of different questions on Ask Ubuntu regarding NVIDIA graphics drivers installation generating various issues and problems on Ubuntu systems - I do want to know:
What do Ubuntu users have to care about when installing the NVIDIA graphics drivers?
Explanation:
Being aware...
@Mitch The reason : Most modern computers have NVIDIA GPUs that need other install and configuration instructions than older ones to which the highest rated answer in the main post refers to - so when new users find this answer they first try things that won't work. Examples ... xorg-edgers PPA : earlier correct - today : no drivers - Proprietary GPU Drivers PPA instead ... or bumblebee : solution last version 2,5 years old - today : nvidia-prime ... hope you understand what I mean ... :)
@Mitch Thank you for doing this - I really would appreciate it because as we can see every day on AU there are new questions over and over again regarding problems with newer NVIDIA graphics cards ... :)
Quoting from Wikipedia is totally okay, but you need to have the correct attribution. A link to the page and the phrase "from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". That's what they advise. I guess you will get away with just a link but why not be extra nice :)

@ByteCommander Yes, unless you have created a gpg key pair at some point. Not having a key that has ultimate trust is nothing to worry about. It's talking about the local keyring, not the signature that it just verified.
It imports the key from launchpad, which will be used to verify the signature on the package list later on.
@NathanOsman I was hoping Nitroshare would work to transfer files between a host and a guest VM.. but it didn't. I suppose that isn't something the app can really change is it?
I'm working with two ubuntu instances on AWS (which I use a pem key to access them).
