Q: Graphical artifact in Chrome and Chromium

Since today I encounter weird graphical artifact when using Chromium (with make it unusable). It does not happen in Firefox or any other application. Here is a screenshot : (Not visible in the screenshot but this also happen to the menu/tab bar. Not only in the page content.) Out of curios...

@cl-netbox I reinstalled my graphic driver, no changes :(

cl-netbox

@hg8 Which graphics card do you have ? sorry I forgot it ... ):

hg8

@cl-netbox Radeon HD 8570D

Ravan

@ByteCommander see my edit

cl-netbox

@hg8 Ah I remember now - so issues occur as well with fglrx as with radeon ?

@Ravan Did you succeed in downloading the python book ?

hg8

@cl-netbox yes...

Ravan

09:10

@cl-netbox No

Byte Commander

@Ravan I improved your grammar and wording a bit.

However, feel free to accept the answer. ;)

cl-netbox

@hg8 ... what a strange problem ... to be honest : now I actually have no idea on how to get this solved - sorry ! ):

edward torvalds

@cl-netbox hi

@cl-netbox dont mind but are you sure of what you are doing?

hg8

@cl-netbox No problem thanks for your help =)

Ravan

@ByteCommander I added new scren shot to support your answer.

cl-netbox

09:14

wait a minute ...

edward torvalds

ok

tell me

cl-netbox

okay - I am ready -> paste.ubuntu.com/12601109

Ravan

@cl-netbox It always showing error

edward torvalds

i will try and tell you later :)

Ravan

@edwardtorvalds me?

edward torvalds

09:19

no cl-netbox

cl-netbox

@Ravan Do you still need the book or are the other ones enough ?

Ravan

@edwardtorvalds ok...by the way hello!...I'm ravan

edward torvalds

hi

Ravan

@cl-netbox Not immediately!...but later

I am reading those documents!....

cl-netbox

@Ravan I will think about a solution ... :)

Ravan

09:22

@cl-netbox have you seen my flavor in chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/24369131#24369131

@Rinzwind o/

Byte Commander

@cl-netbox apt-get autoclean before apt-get clean is useless...

cl-netbox

@Ravan ... got my reaction ? =)

Ravan

@cl-netbox yes

cl-netbox

@ByteCommander I know - but want to get sure ... :)

Ravan

@ByteCommander I would like to know what is exact difference between those two commands?

Byte Commander

09:27

Both delete locally cached downloaded .deb files used by aptget.

Difference:

Ravan

@cl-netbox don't mind I used your help here

Byte Commander

autoclean does only delete those files that can't be downloaded any more, so those who are outdated and won't be used any more anyway

clean instead just cleans all cached .deb packages

@cl-netbox So it makes absolutely no sense to call both commands after each other to be honest... :p

autoclean is a subset of clean

Ravan

@ByteCommander but I saw in many AU answers both one after other

A.B.

\o/

Ravan

@A.B morning

A.B.

09:32

@Ravan o/

Ravan

@A.B you still not answered my question....;P

A.B.

@Ravan which question?

cl-netbox

@Ravan ... so you should do ... what ? =)

hg8

Hi @A.B. =)

A.B.

@hg8 \o :)

cl-netbox

09:34

@A.B. Good Morning my friend ! :)

Ravan

@A.B chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/201?m=24366051#24366051 here

@cl-netbox I am going to place your name in answer...;P

A.B.

@Ravan No idea :\

Ravan

@A.B and also this chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/201?m=24354512#24354512

Byte Commander

@Ravan Well, many people making the same mistake does not imply that it's not a mistake any more, does it? ;)

> select computer - press ctrl + h - type virtualbox in search field - delete results - empty trash

cl-netbox

@Ravan NO

Byte Commander

09:36

@cl-netbox You can do ^ also from the comamnd-line:

sudo find / -iname '*virtualbox*'

A.B.

@Ravan I have no idea what you mean with

> Publishing has been disabled for this archive.

Byte Commander

^ will list all files containing "virtualbox" in their filename (case-insensitive) below the file system root.

Ravan

@A.B. ok..ignore, I saw it on launchpad on a PPA page

@ByteCommander obviously no,

Byte Commander

After checking the output (better than blindly deleting too much), it can automatically delete all found files with:

cl-netbox

@ByteCommander yes - thank you - but as I don't know how experienced a user is, I choose a most neat way for tutorials ... :)

Byte Commander

09:38

sudo find / -iname '*virtualbox*' -delete

Ravan

@ByteCommander are you a programmer ? don't mind

Byte Commander

@cl-netbox Commands to type in terminal are pretty neat in my opinion - besides that, a 2.7k user can't really be a noob.

@Ravan Yes, as a hobby currently.

cl-netbox

@Ravan When you are ready please report back - I will be away for some minutes - By the way, I was quite astonished about this - does it really seem to you that I am not aware of what I am doing ? - I try to help you getting rid of your problem ! - When I know nothing on something I never would offer my help !

@ByteCommander I know but some people prefer GUI ways ... =)

Byte Commander

You've got most of the rest in the terminal anyway! ;-)

Even sudo reboot!

But don't mind. I just wanted to point the alternative out to you...

Ravan

@cl-netbox sorry...I don't understand really!...please message me later ....

@cl-netbox I not really mean that!.....I want to give credit to you for that answer!

@ByteCommander I have an idea....can you suggest a way

@cl-netbox don't mind

cl-netbox

09:48

@ByteCommander Thank you - I appreciate it ! :)

@Ravan please wait a little bit =)

Byte Commander

@Ravan What do you mean?

cl-netbox

@ByteCommander ... is really recommended in this case for loading virtual drivers properly - you can find it in many post ... :)

Ravan

@ByteCommander I need a program that should open a link(we will provide inside the program) fixed number of times

Byte Commander

@cl-netbox Maybe - but you just told me that you use the nautilus search instead of find because some people prefer the GUI. And then you reboot from the terminal! I just found that a bit funny... ;)

Ravan

@ByteCommander open and close simultaneously

Byte Commander

09:52

@Ravan What language? And by "open a link" do you mean opening a website in the default browser?

Ravan

@ByteCommander is it possible?

@ByteCommander yes website link in browser!

Takkat

@Ravan xdg-open <URL> will open a link in your browser.

Byte Commander

Sure it's possible.

Ravan

@ByteCommander I hear python can!..

Byte Commander

Sure it can! ;-D

cl-netbox

09:54

@ByteCommander Yes it somehow is funny - I do this 'mixed' way because of my experience with users I supported before ... :)

Ravan

@Takkat program?....it seems a command

Byte Commander

I've just read about it yesterday... Wait.

Takkat

@Ravan xdg-open is a programm run from CLI (or called as subprocess from Python).

basically most "commands" are in fact programs.

Ravan

@Takkat can we decide nuber of times that should open and close?

I am very new to python

Takkat

it will open everytime you call it.

Ravan

09:57

@Takkat no my intention is ....without my presence if once I executed it should open and close fixed number of times

Byte Commander

Module webbrowser @Ravan

e.g. webbrowser.open("https://google.com")

You can add a parameter to set whether to open in current window, new window or new tab, if possible.

Ravan

@ByteCommander in terminal or from python shell

Byte Commander

@Ravan In Python of course! ;)

Takkat

@ByteCommander amongst others on POSIX webbrowser will also use xdg-open (line 457 hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/Lib/webbrowser.py)

but it's really a nice and versatile tool for Python code to run in various environments.

cl-netbox

@edwardtorvalds When you are ready please report back if it worked. - By the way, I was quite astonished about this - does it really seem to you that I am not aware of what I am doing ? - I try to help you getting rid of your problem ! - When I know nothing on something I never would offer my help !

Ravan

10:16

@ByteCommander thank you!....so it can be done with python.I will ask after few days,mean while I need to learn!....if you have code please provide to me!...thank you

@cl-netbox I read!

I am very quick!

cl-netbox

@Ravan okay now ?

Ravan

;P

Byte Commander

@Ravan I have much code... What do you want? ;)

docs.python.org/2.7/library/webbrowser.html#module-webbrowser

Ravan

@ByteCommander my comment correct??askubuntu.com/questions/679240/…

Byte Commander

@Ravan Looks ok. I did not check his other question on SO though, but if there is one that says the same, your comment is valid.

Ravan

10:30

@ByteCommander I need code to the program which I asked now!....link open and close

Byte Commander

@Ravan You can't close the browser window with that.

Ravan

@ByteCommander ok

cl-netbox

@ByteCommander just curious on your opinion : was my reply chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/24370485#24370485 on this chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/24369732#24369732 reasonable or too emotional ?

Byte Commander

10:47

@cl-netbox IMHO, it's fine! :)

cl-netbox

Thank you ! :)

hi

anyone here online ? :)

can anyone help me clarify how to create multiple VPS using a dedicated server ( like digital ocean is offering )?

crl

welp, I'm doing "sudo service mongod start" but then "ps -C mongod" doesn't list it, although it does list it if I run it with simply "mongod"

So I'd like to run it as a service, but it seems not working

Journeyman Geek

.@crl is there a service set up for it?

Vitalik Jimbei

tried to check like this ps ax | grep mongod ?

Journeyman Geek

@VitalikJimbei do runs KVM these days right?

Vitalik Jimbei

not following , sorry

Journeyman Geek

11:16

The 'magic' in vps providers is in the control panel.

Vitalik Jimbei

how can i set it up ?

i've seen it done on a Windows server

not on systems like Ubuntu

Journeyman Geek

Er...

Vitalik Jimbei

do i need to set up a panel and host it on the dedicated server ?

Journeyman Geek

If you want to sell it :p

crl

@VitalikJimbei no nothing

@JourneymanGeek no

Journeyman Geek

11:18

Else just install KVM and management stuff for it

Ip address setup would depend on your dedi provider.

Vitalik Jimbei

so bottom line, i need to install KVM on dedicated server to get it started ?

Journeyman Geek

You could also go with container

Vitalik Jimbei

cant find a comprehensive instruction step by step

Journeyman Geek

That's one option, yes.

I'm on my phone so googling stuff isn't an option :p

Vitalik Jimbei

i'll keep on looking then. Thanks for the start provided :)

What was the first Eclipse release?

3.0

crl

12:22

1.2 or less (obviously you don't start releases at 3.0)

A.B.

Eclipse (software)

In computer programming, Eclipse is an integrated development environment (IDE). It contains a base workspace and an extensible plug-in system for customizing the environment. Eclipse is written mostly in Java and its primary use is for developing Java applications, but it may also be used to develop applications in other programming languages through the use of plugins, including: Ada, ABAP, C, C++, COBOL, Fortran, Haskell, JavaScript, Lasso, Lua, Natural, Perl, PHP, Prolog, Python, R, Ruby (including Ruby on Rails framework), Scala, Clojure, Groovy, Scheme, and Erlang. It can also be used to...

I'm not sure

:\

Byte Commander

@crl Windows did! ;D

crl

@A.B. this is in French jmdoudoux.fr/java/dejae/chap001.htm but see, there was a 1.0

Byte Commander

(There was e.g. Windows 1, but it never really got published because it was considered too bad...)

I often see users that try to fix an issue and somewhere read or just try to recursively chown their home directory and sometimes even also reset permissions recursively to something like rwxr-xr-x or similar. Imagine such an owner/permission massacre - are there critical files/directories that ...

permissions home-directory

thanks

I can understand that everything is owned by edward, but it is sure that everything belongs to edward group and not to other?

Terrance

@edwardtorvalds Yes, everything in your home folder would now be in the edward group.

@edwardtorvalds It is probably good that you did that. Anything before might have been incorrect for your user. Say, if you run sudo ssh command it would change the ~/.ssh/known_hosts to be owned by root instead of you.

@Ravan You don't need to do anything

(IOW: do what you do best: nothing! :D)

@Seth: thanks for pointing this out. I will take more care in the future!

A.B.

He @Fabby you old guy :P =)

Fabby

@A.B. :-)

Going through 2 days of backlog of messages...

(from AU)

@Ravan Done! For the future: dual answers are allowed, but in the future, try to limit it to one and add titles. If it's really impossible (like when you need cross-links like I've just added) It's OK...

@Fabby I asked @Serg to have a look on this : askubuntu.com/questions/678719/… just to check whether there is a mistake in my answer and he pointed me to you. :)

@cl-netbox Done! (CC: @Serg)

@Fabby Thank you very much @Fabby - I know ... my 'weak point' - @A.B. and I are joking often about my style (spaces etc.) - but have you seen a Capital when you open ubuntu.com ? =)

Q: Is it possible to remove a flag?

Is it possible to remove a flag? e.g. if I flag a question as "Unclear what you're asking", and the OP edits the question, is it possible to remove my flag from that question? Or if I flag accidentally or put the wrong flag or whatever, is there a way to unflag it?

support flagging flags

cl-netbox

@ParanoidPanda yes ?

@ParanoidPanda hey man, what's going on ? =)
