[05:01] do the apps in the launcher have to be out in by hand if you install via a deb? [05:17] Hello, when connecting to a WiFi network my laptop doesn't have the default gateway added even though it gets the correct IP from DHCP; any ideas what I could do/check? [06:16] do I have to create a seperate md(0/1/2/3/4/5) for each partition, or can I do a "full drive" raid 1 using mdadm without an LVM? [06:39] Good morning. [06:39] morning [06:40] lordievader, can I create one md for an entire drive that contains multiple partitions, or do I need to make one for each partition? (no lvm involved here) [06:40] --raid-devices=2 missing /dev/sdb2 vs --raid-devices=2 missing /dev/sdb [06:41] FishFiend: Yes, you can partition a raid device. [06:41] You can see your raid device like any other block device. [06:42] can I boot from a partitioned mdadm raid device? [06:42] (with /boot inside) [06:43] Yes. [06:43] sounds great. thanks. [07:43] Re-reading the partition table failed.: Invalid argument ---------- The kernel still uses the old table. The new table will be used at the next reboot or after you run partprobe(8) or kpartx(8). [07:44] is this because I used fdisk and it automatically created a new partition table within the md0? or is this alright and can I ignore it? [07:44] i *think* it is alright [07:45] If the available partitions have changed it is safe to ignore, else run what it says.

[18:53] Yes [18:53] how do i run it i dont see anywhere ufw-kde icon [18:56] it's part of the system configuration, Network settings, I think [18:56] there's a screenshot here that seems to show it, too http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/UFW+KControl+Module?content=137789 [19:03] TJ- i dont see it in network settings, im using kubuntu 15.04 [19:04] and ufw-kde wasn't even installed by defualt [19:04] i installed it today [19:04] so i don't think it's part [19:07] UFW is an optional package, from the 'universe' pocket, so it is not a core part of the distro (which is all in 'main') [19:08] s/UFW/ufw-kde' [19:09] I've just installed kde-ufw, and I see "Firewall" listed unde "Network and Connectivity" in System Settings === SouL__ is now known as Majik__ === misterno is now known as Guest96883 === misterno_c is now known as misterno === ambisiniestro_ is now known as ambiSiniestro [19:39] TJ- this is what i get when i open "connectivity" under network in settings http://s9.postimg.org/f1ew5471b/screenshot_26.png [19:41] I see http://m.imgur.com/yXHnyEH [19:42] what? you have more settings than i do [19:43] and your gui seems older, you havent upgraded? [19:44] I'm on 14.04 LTS [19:44] this is 15.04 http://s9.postimg.org/xi9avxmzj/screenshot_26.png [19:45] Looks like they ripped out a lot! [19:46] well they moved few things around [19:46] but i think also took something out too [19:46] im no expert since i never even used 14.04 :P [19:48] I guess that is because 15.05 has KDE 5.2 and a lot of stuff got ripped out and hadn't been re-added. That may be why you cannot see the ufw-kde interface [19:49] you mean if ufw-kde interface was coded for too old version of KDE i might not see it? [19:49] this is the ufw-kde interface: http://m.imgur.com/ZSotYlq [19:50] well anyways, i just wanted to try it and see if theres anything interactive in it [19:50] but it looks like there isnt [19:50] im looking for gui with interactive alerts on outgoing incoming connections [19:50] I'd not have thought so since otherwise why package it, but kubuntu is a very poor relation with very few developers, so lots of things simply don't get the time and attention [19:51] and from what ive experienced firewalls dont seem like interesting topic for linux users [19:51] sounds like you want an intrusion detection system. Although with most desktop ubuntu installs there are few services listening on the public interfaces, and therefore input detection isn't necessary [19:51] specifically GUIs [19:52] here is how comodo firewall in windows allows me to setup rules: i set it to manually alert me every time theres a connection being established and at first i block all [19:52] then i decide for every process if im gonna allow it and set a rule [19:52] If the PC is directly connected to the Internet it might be useful, but if behind a masquerading router (NAT) then nothing external can reach the PC without either explicit port-forwarding in the router, or using uPnP [19:52] after ive gone through initial round of popups i get less and less the more rules i have [19:53] and then im at the time where only something "new" and "unusual" prompts me [19:53] I guess ufw-kde isn't ported to Plasma5 yet. [19:53] which is what i like [19:53] it's not about incoming as much as outgoing [19:54] i like to know what is trying to phone out [19:54] hence why i like popups [19:54] For outgoing connections, locked down systems will often use the facilities of SELinux, but that is a *very* complicated beast and even the experts get confused. I'm not aware of any desktop-based outgoing-connection detect/alert packages [19:54] for example as soon as you come to login the OS is phoning to cannonical [19:54] i like to know these things [19:54] the only reason i know about it is because i have comodo in windows alerting me and im running kubuntu in VM [19:55] and i like that type of interaction [19:55] Netfilter could log all outgoing connections... but that'll just fill the logs. [19:55] and then i can decide if i want to block only per IP [19:55] which is great [19:56] i could deny only certain IPs for process and still get popups when it tries to connect elsewhere [19:56] and so on [19:56] it's very detailed [19:56] I'm sure I've seen something for outgoing filtering, but it was more enterprise gateway oriented with a web control interface [19:56] yeah that's not something average user is interested in or even needs [19:56] but some of us really like to know what is phoning out [19:57] if i run an app and it immediately tries to connect online i know two things, could be looking for updates, could be phoning [19:57] if i disable looking for updates and it still tries to connect then i know thers more to it [19:58] it's simplisting and doesn't require huge amounts of knowledge how networking works [19:58] but it satisfies my need to know [19:58] misterno: You can start by dropping everything and only allowing certain things. That is what I do. [19:58] yea but where is interaction? [19:58] thats the crucial part [19:59] in windows im doing other stuff and just waiting for popup to show when something is trying to communicate [19:59] i dont have to monitor it [19:59] There ain't, I don't want to be bugged by it. If some rule is missing I'll look in the logs. [19:59] popups and interaction tell me exactly NOW something is trying to communicate to IP xxx via Port xx and so on [19:59] do you wanna make a rule, allow block, just now, always etc [20:00] very easy to setup rules that way [20:00] I hate that, I'd have a constant pop up. [20:00] or to monitor further the behavior [20:00] well that's individual preference [20:00] Especially when it does that too for every incomming connection. [20:01] you can set it how you like [20:01] for example [20:01] I suppose you could rig something up that listens to the log and ask you for what to do. [20:01] do you wanna know just first time it tries to connect? [20:01] then immediately set a rule to allow [20:01] Should't be too difficult to throw that in ipset. [20:03] but from what ive seen searching on google, it seems most firewall guis are old or not updated [20:03] even weirder is that changelogs dont have dates [20:03] is that usual in linux? [20:04] just have versions without dates?! [20:04] i wanna know if last update was 5 years ago or 1 year ago [20:05] ive seen some websites but they all seem outdated like this one http://www.giacomos.it/iqfire/index.html [20:06] anyways im exhausted with this firewall thingy so im dropping it for now [20:06] thanks anyways [20:09] how long does sudo command remember my credentials? [20:09] like if i type sudo apt update and enter password next sudo command doesnt ask for password anymore [20:25] The default is 15 minutes. The timestamp can be reset with "sudo --reset-timestamp". The current timestamp and cached config can be deleted with "sudo --remove-timestamp' See "man sudo" and also the text-file "/usr/share/doc/sudo/OPTIONS" [20:29] misterno: re changelogs. Every Debian/Ubuntu Changelog entry has an exact timestamp. To view the package changelog do "apt-get changelog ". You can also check the available package versions with "apt-cache policy " [20:45] Hi all. I'm having a bit of a problem where I can't boot to the graphical login manager, gdm iirc, with linux 3.19.0-26-generic. 3.19.0-25-generic works fine, however, but I'm a little worried about relying on an older kernel version. [20:45] (Like, it appears to boot up just fine, but I'm stuck with a blank, unresponsive screen.) [20:59] DDR, what gpu are you using? [21:00] is it, by chance, from AMD? [21:01] Tahiti PRO [Radeon HD 7950/8950 OEM / R9 280] [21:01] ok, I think that might be the reason [21:01] It is, indeed, from AMD. [21:01] I had the same issue [21:02] you are using the fglrx driver? [21:02] Yes. [21:02] which version of Kubuntu are you on? [21:03] are you using the fglrx from repos or did you install it manually from the AMD site? [21:03] "fglrx_pci", and 15.04 I believe. [21:03] I think I used the drivers from the repos. [21:03] ( /think/. It has been a while.) [21:04] so apparently 3.19.0.26 introduced some bug that causes the kernel module for fglrx not to build correctly [21:05] Ah, that'd make sense - I can get to a non-graphical login. [21:05] the fglrx from the repos has since been updated, however - sometime last week, I think [21:05] you can? for me not even that did work [21:05] I could only reach the root console in recovery mode [21:06] but if you can reach a text-mode console, you might try sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade [21:06] I got it to work by just using the old version of the kernel. [21:06] if you are lucky it will download the updated fglrx and install it for the 3.19.0.26 kernel [21:07] ah, I see, but not in 3.19.0.26? [21:07] Right. [21:07] because if you boot in 3.19.0.25 I guess it won't update the kernel module for the newer one [21:07] 3.19.0-25 still works, so I booted that instead of 3.19.0-26. [21:07] hm [21:08] I guess you could try 2 things [21:08] Ahhhh. I'll go try .26. [21:08] brb? [21:08] good luck [21:16] pat_rick: Worked like a charm. Thank you. [21:16] glad if it helped [21:17] otherwise you can try to uninstall the 3.19.0.26 kernel, update the system and reinstall it again [21:17] but if it works, then it's ok [21:35] :) === kubuntu is now known as Guest55196 === me is now known as Guest63275
