brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 09:37 |
dogmatic69 | my laptop wifi started playing games. drops connection every day and wont reconnect without a reboot | 09:53 |
JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Thursday, and happy Crepe Day! 😃 | 09:53 |
dogmatic69 | tried restarting network manager, iwconfig up/donw etc | 09:53 |
dogmatic69 | any ideas? | 09:53 |
dogmatic69 | after I restarted the network manager, the wifi option in the menu dropdown is now greyed out | 09:55 |
JamesTait | Sounds depressingly like what happens with my youngest's Dell Inspiron. | 09:56 |
popey | dogmatic69: yeah, long time bug in 16.04 | 10:02 |
popey | "nmcli con up <ssid>" brings it back up for me | 10:02 |
popey | "nmcli con" lists the ssids if you forgot which one you should be on | 10:02 |
dogmatic69 | popey: great. its only started affecting me this week :/ | 10:04 |
dogmatic69 | I have just rebooted, but its not even worked this time. will try that command | 10:04 |
dogmatic69 | does not seem to be working, do you know of any verbose options for output? | 10:07 |
dogmatic69 | just says "connection failed" | 10:07 |
dogmatic69 | popey: out of desperation, I rebooted the router. Now working?!?!? | 10:14 |
dogmatic69 | my iphone was working on wifi just fine. PC working on eth just fine. | 10:15 |
popey | you on virgin media? | 10:17 |
dogmatic69 | yes sir | 10:18 |
dogmatic69 | (insert tears here) | 10:18 |
dogmatic69 | not sure how ISP would affect this. Im running in modem mode with ddwrt on a different router | 10:19 |
dogmatic69 | never had this issue, last updated ddwrt months ago | 10:19 |
dogmatic69 | Firmware Version DD-WRT v3.0-r30709 std (09/29/16) | 10:20 |
dogmatic69 | been 4 months | 10:20 |
davmor2 | JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60HUrB_I5yo or you could go with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFkzRNyygfk to misquote Morecambe "All the right letter not necessarily in the right order" | 10:21 |
JamesTait | davmor2, I do appreciate that song. <£ | 10:23 |
JamesTait | ❤ even | 10:23 |
popey | dogmatic69: i periodically have to reboot my openwrt boxes | 10:43 |
davmor2 | popey: you set it to reboot once a week during off time like 3am on a sunday | 10:47 |

popey | davmor2: that's not a bad idea, but that will probably break a backup if I don't time it right | 11:23 |
davmor2 | popey: then set it right ;) | 11:24 |
zmoylan-pi | and then make sure that hour going forward and back doesn't break it :-) | 11:26 |
xnox | Ed Sheeran is a twat. Was in the online queue since 9:30am and it is sold out now and I did not get a single ticket. | 11:34 |
zmoylan-pi | don't worry they'll soon be for sale at stupid money online | 11:34 |
popey | haha | 11:39 |
zmoylan-pi | there was recently a commission about ticket touting and they had an expert in explaining how criminal gangs in ireland bot the sales and get the tickets which they sell online for silly money | 11:40 |
zmoylan-pi | if the expert hadn't of been from ticketmaster... | 11:40 |
popey | anyone else on virgin media here? | 14:23 |
popey | i can't get to slack.com or trello.com via VM | 14:23 |
daftykins | even with alternate DNS? | 14:23 |
daftykins | i always found VM's DNS servers would have woes so ran alternatives back in my England days | 14:24 |
daftykins | suppose it could be more routing, i'll be quiet :> | 14:24 |
popey | i switched to company vpn and it works | 14:27 |
popey | I'm not using VM DNS | 14:27 |
daftykins | ah ok, mtr o'clock! | 14:27 |
popey | well, it works now I'm on the vpn, will stay on it while I work | 14:27 |
popey | wondered if any other VM users could confirm | 14:28 |
foobarry | can i get systemd to delay a particular service by 30s? | 15:18 |
foobarry | i configured it to wait until my filesystem was available, but still need a delay | 15:18 |
diplo | Think there is a [timer] option, still new to systemd myself | 15:26 |
diplo | [Timer] | 15:27 |
diplo | OnBootSec=5min or something | 15:27 |
diplo | Start 5mins after boot | 15:27 |
foobarry | hmm i want to start after a service is up | 15:30 |
foobarry | like 2 mins after GPFS is running | 15:30 |
diplo | I think you can do that to, give me abit and I'll take a look | 15:46 |
foobarry | great thx | 15:47 |
diplo | I think you may be able to do it by timer, but could you not use After | 15:59 |
diplo | So something like After=network.target gvfs.target ? | 15:59 |
diplo | Or is that still to soon ? | 15:59 |
Torelila | Anyone have a Ubuntu forum log in? | 19:29 |
Torelila | account | 19:29 |
Torelila | I met this problem in 1610 https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2286043 and the solution is the same. Kill Nautilus. "issue can also be fixed by removing Nautilus since Cinnamon uses Nemo instead." | 19:40 |
daftykins | i need remote hands, i just tried firmware updating a printer but i'm not there to read the display and/or power cycle it XD | 23:34 |
zmoylan-pi | a drone with a camera and a pokey stick... | 23:43 |
daftykins | :> | 23:44 |
daftykins | i think the keys will be the toughest part | 23:45 |
daftykins | i just watched 'Arrival', that was well worth a go in my opinion! | 23:45 |
daftykins | missed it in the cinema | 23:45 |
zmoylan-pi | think of the fun you could have playing knick knock at peoples doors and flying away before they answer... | 23:45 |
daftykins | they'd hear the *VRRRRT* :> | 23:45 |
zmoylan-pi | you'd time it for when there's vespa scooters going past... | 23:46 |
daftykins | ah har | 23:46 |
zmoylan-pi | or add a laser and shine beam on door bell from stand off position and make a cat ring the door bell.... :-P | 23:47 |
zmoylan-pi | remote remote | 23:47 |
zmoylan-pi | purrfect crime... | 23:47 |
daftykins | i had to paws to think that one through | 23:49 |
