[00:08] I suspect you had a shell open and were trying something with the dhclient and unknowningly launched processes in the background that caused enp2s0f1 to try and pull an address [00:09] Hi guys! I have to use Whatsapp for a join interview (I suppose they want to use a chat video on pc). What would you recommend under Ubuntu please? [00:09] *job interview [00:11] I have seen web.whatsapp.com, but it does not seem practical, it asks to scan a QR code with a phone. If the person uses Windows on PC or Mac, I'm f*****. [00:11] >> caused enp2s0f1 to try and pull an address ; so any permanent solution? Or just kill the processes? [00:12] Well your interfaces config looks correct so that should do it. [00:12] killing the processes should do it [00:13] given the absence of all the other parameters specified when brought up via system scripts it's very likely you launched them manually [00:13] ^ [00:13] Or were trying to "fix" it and got yourself in more trouble. ;-) [00:13] a reboot would also get it [00:15] etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf dump http://paste.ubuntu.com/24985184/ [00:19] nacc, ? [00:19] can you possibly assist in this matter [00:20] ++ [00:20] oh, hey blkadder [00:20] since you wanted to input earlier, want to help now? [00:21] macvlan is not working with LXC on ubuntu server 16.04 [00:21] nostalgiccloud, Not really. [00:21] I've never used either. :-) [00:21] I could probably figure it out. [00:21] hue [00:23] nostalgiccloud, Which mode are you using for macvlan? [00:24] what do you mean? [00:24] Which of the 4 networking modes are you using? [00:24] " nictype: macvlan [00:24] parent: eth0 [00:24] type: nic [00:24] " [00:25] Private, VEPA, Bridge, or Passthru [00:25] No idea. [00:25] Nothing I could find says I have to specify anything past macvlan [00:25] nostalgiccloud: are you using LXC or LXD? [00:26] nacc, that's where the lines get blurred. [00:26] nostalgiccloud: how are you invoking your container? [00:26] lxc [00:26] *starting [00:26] nostalgiccloud: `lxc-start` or `lxc start` (hyphen or space) [00:26] lxc start [00:26] nostalgiccloud: ok, that's LXD [00:27] nostalgiccloud: note also, there is a LXC/LXD specific channel, #lxcontainers [00:27] nostalgiccloud: what is the error you are getting? [00:28] no error, that's the issue [00:28] The container has no network access [00:30] nostalgiccloud: `lxc profile show default` in a pastebin [00:31] http://termbin.com/8q9t [00:32] Thanks for help! I'll keep eye out and see how it goes. [00:33] nacc, welcome to my world of pain [00:33] one more question.... Anybody have a good idea how to reset a 'frozen' session? I'm running TeamViewer to one account/desktop and that session is frozen, where I get X for cursor [00:34] nostalgiccloud: ok, so eth0 is your host nic, do you have a dhcp server on the network eth0 is connected to? [00:34] However in second session I can log in via RSH and get console [00:35] I tried to reset the TeamViewer daemon, but the unity desktop is still frozen [00:35] nacc, not that I'd know of. [00:35] nacc, let me guess, copy /etc/network/interfaces to the container? [00:36] nostalgiccloud: then i'm not sure how you expect to get an IP in the container? [00:36] nostalgiccloud: macvlan puts your guest on the host's network [00:36] nostalgiccloud: they won't magically get an IP unless something gives them one (or, as you say, /e/n/i is configured for static networking) [00:37] nostalgiccloud: tbh, if you are just trying to get up to speed on lxd, doing macvlan makes it more difficult. Taking the default bridge is a better (easier) way to learn and the containers will have network by default. [00:37] nacc, that is the biggest brainfart I've ever had [00:37] I will just use bridged. [00:37] nostalgiccloud: i think that should just be a matter of `sudo dpkg-reconfigure lxd` and letting it setup the bridged newtork [00:37] *network [00:38] LOL [00:38] nostalgiccloud: you may have already read this, but stgraber's blog is a good resource: https://stgraber.org/2016/10/27/network-management-with-lxd-2-3/ [00:38] that article is a bit old, but there are more current ones [00:38] Docs on macvlan are thin and most appear to be very docker-centric [00:39] blkadder: yeah, i think that was primary driving case (density of network traffic on a single system with 100s/1000s of containers) [00:39] I had very little sleep last night [00:40] nacc, I see the use case for it, just wish it had more robust docs. :-) [00:40] nacc, so excuse my brainfasts [00:40] farts [00:40] Because all of this network fiddling gets very complicated very fast. [00:41] nacc, So correct me if I am wrong, I would use two bridged networks for my goal [00:41] One has internet access, the other just holds my containers that don't need direct access [00:45] If you create two networks (public and private) then you need to gateway the private to the public if it needs internet access. [00:46] anyone know where docker stores images in ubuntu? [00:47] nacc, Here is a interesting one [00:47] My container has a ip, a ipv6 ip but no ipv4 [00:50] Fixed it [00:50] nacc, ty for your time helping me [00:57] Anybody have a good idea how to reset a 'frozen' session? I'm running TeamViewer to one account/desktop and that session is frozen, where I get X for cursor [00:57] However in second session I can log in via RSH and get console === redwar is now known as Tandy1000A === Tandy1000A is now known as redwar [00:59] No process is really pegging the CPU or memory?

[01:00] yes [01:00] nostalgiccloud: cool === coffeeguy is now known as zenguy [01:01] Hello [01:02] What are you up to? :p [01:02] nacc, So now I need to assign it a static IP internally [01:07] nacc, what is an appropriate method to backup containers [01:18] nostalgiccloud: static ip internally? if you are using the default lxdbr0, there is a dnsmasq you can config [01:18] nostalgiccloud: see that blog post [01:18] the one I linked? [01:18] nostalgiccloud: backing up containers is sort of the opposite of the point :) [01:19] nostalgiccloud: https://stgraber.org/2016/10/27/network-management-with-lxd-2-3/ [01:19] nacc, containers with LXC are like Docker and disconnect the idea of the data and the container right? [01:21] nostalgiccloud: do you mean like data volumes in docker? im not sure im familar enough with docker to answer [01:21] docker and lxd containers are only similar in that they are both containers [01:21] docker is a process container [01:21] lxd is a system container [01:22] nostalgiccloud: its getting late for me (eod). #lxcontainers is probably the best place to keep asking your questions [01:23] Ty [01:26] Hi. I'm running 14.04 and I'm a Ubuntu newbie but and old hand with Linux. Once upon a time, a run level of 3 in /etc/inittab would start a Linux box and give you text consoles, and a run level of 5 would start X. In 14.04, how can I stop X starting on boot (ie, the equivalent of setting runlevel to 3)? [01:27] hackvana: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpstartHowto#How_do_I_change_the_runlevel.3F [01:28] Is it still done with runlevels? Isn't it some kind of service that I can disable? [01:29] (I'll go read the link) [01:29] nostalgiccloud: yw the above is my opinion, to be clear (docker v. lxd). But basically you backup containers in lxd like you'd back up VMs in other envs, imo. But I'm not sure if that exactly answers your qquestion, or what is considered state of the art [01:29] nostalgiccloud: https://github.com/lxc/lxd/blob/master/doc/backup.md [01:30] nostalgiccloud: this may also give you some ideas: https://github.com/lxc/lxd/issues/1304 [01:31] On my system, env DEFAULT_RUNLEVEL=2 (not 5). How is X starting? [01:31] (That link seems to be about runlevels, not about how service such as X are started. Which upstart service is responsible for starting X?) [01:33] hackvana: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/243195 ? [01:34] hackvana: or boot into text mode? https://askubuntu.com/questions/16371/how-do-i-disable-x-at-boot-time-so-that-the-system-boots-in-text-mode [01:34] Thanbks [01:34] hackvana: well, yhour analogy for runlevels is a sysv concept. they don't really mean anyting anymore (with upstart and systemd, which ave replaced sysv-init on ubuntu) [01:35] I understand that. [01:36] (Hence "once upon a time" and "Is it still done with runlevels? Isn't it some kind of service that I can disable?") [01:36] Now to work out how to add "text" to the kernel cmdline. (The device is not a PC, and doesn't use grub) [01:37] Surprises never end. Why has Kubuntu's preinstalled Firefox stopped providing URL suggestions for the previously visited sites...all of a sudden? [01:37] why all of a sudden I have to type in full site address whereas before it was giving suggestions ? Explain the never ending bizzaro surprises. [01:38] hackvana: the upstart services are defined in /etc/init [01:39] hackvana: you can disable an upstart service by creating a "service.override" with content "manual" [01:39] Thanks [01:39] Is there a service associated with starting X? [01:39] hackvana: it's probably lightdm [01:40] hackvana: something *dm [01:41] There's a /etc/init/lightdm.conf. If I do this, will it stop lightdm from running? echo manual > /etc/init/lightdm.override [01:42] hackvana: yes [01:43] Thanks! [01:43] Hiu [01:43] hackvana: what boot loader do you have? [01:44] u-boot it seems (Odroid U3). [01:45] The poor device only has 2G of RAM, and I want to run Xvnc, so not starting X-using-the-gfx-chip on boot will save heaps of RAM. === vimar_ is now known as Bischoop [01:46] * hackvana is mindful of "unofficial derivatives: use your distro's support channel, not here", so I'm not going to ask odroid-specific questions here [01:47] can someone help me extend a partition? the drive already has 4 and it's the 1st so how can i do this without deleting the files ? :( [01:50] JungleFever: shrinking and enlarging partitions is pretty slow [01:50] problem is i can't do either because there are 4 partitions already [01:51] and i don't know how to edit the linux.img i downloaded [01:51] JungleFever: what do you mean 4? [01:51] JungleFever: the limit is 4 primary partitions but you can have more if you create an extended partition as the fourth [01:52] but i am recovering from a linux.img [01:52] JungleFever: then you can have logical partitions under the extended partition [01:52] so it's not me creating the partitions [01:52] JungleFever: what is linux.img? [01:52] http://i.imgur.com/R8GbnM7.png [01:53] it's the image I'm recovering from, but i need to make the primary partition bigger [01:53] but i dont know how to edit the linux.img i downloaded, and when i write the .img to usb i am left with all that lost space [01:54] JungleFever: there's almost no data in sdb4 [01:54] JungleFever: save the data somewhere else and create an extended partition in its place [01:56] ok let me give that a try [02:07] how you use encryption with deja dup? [02:07] backup [02:08] how are bots bypassing google captcha =/ [02:13] where? [02:13] You can buy solved captchas. [02:13] akik: it's not letting me extend the primary partition in gparted [02:13] i deleted the fat32 partition [02:14] JungleFever: you need to move the partitions. you can not resize partition 1 if there's no space behind it [02:15] ok let me try this [02:15] i created a copy of partitioon 1 [02:15] and made it partition 4 [02:15] JungleFever: gparted is a good partitioning program [02:15] how should i proceed now into making it the partition 1 [02:15] hey guys, I'm running ubuntu server 16.04 LTS and I'm having a bit of an issue with GoDaddy SSL certiticate [02:15] how do i check which SSL is currently loaded by Apache2? [02:16] JungleFever: i'm not following your thinking :) [02:16] it has boot flag on the partition [02:16] so does it matter which # the partition is? [02:16] JungleFever: if you want to resize partition 1, you need to move partitions 2 and 3 so that 1 can grow [02:16] so my 4k monitor will only play content at 24fps [02:16] bumblefuzz: which monitor model #? [02:16] in displaysit's an LG [02:17] cant do much without a model number [02:17] it's OLED55c7p [02:17] it's a tv [02:17] but the only option in displays is 24 fps [02:17] it's very laggy onscreen [02:18] says 120hz but i believe this is interpolated? unless the panel is really nice :D [02:18] hrmm, no driver file to install? [02:19] I have no idea [02:20] hey guys, I'm running ubuntu server 16.04 LTS and I'm having a bit of an issue with GoDaddy SSL certiticate [02:20] maybe it needs software on the website for interpolation? im not sure either, really unfamiliar with this panel :( [02:20] sorry [02:20] JungleFever: Where did this linux.img come from? [02:20] Jordan_U: the website I bought it from :P [02:20] I'd even take 60hz [02:20] anything but 24 [02:21] no idea why ubuntu won't give me any other option [02:21] JungleFever: Why did you buy an image file, and what website would that be? [02:21] getpimp.org [02:21] doesn't really matter the file, why i bought it, or the website though. my problem remains the same [02:21] gparted just crashed me on me too with a libparted error :( :(((( [02:22] JungleFever: ok so it has nothing to do with ubuntu [02:22] yeah im on ubuntu right now :D akik [02:22] im trying to do this on ubuntu [02:22] but the linux.img i am burning is not ubuntu [02:27] hrmmm akik better question... is there way to edit the .img contents and how it formats a disk? [02:30] JungleFever: The ".img" file just contains exactly the bytes that the disk should contain, and the tools that write the image to the disk simply copy the contents from the file to the disk. [02:31] JungleFever: Have you tried booting from and using the resulting disk to confirm that you need to do anything at all? [02:31] I can not upgrade the kernel with the size it's partitioning to [02:31] which is why i need to expand that partition [02:31] i couldn't get all my packages installed [02:32] just 2.5gb is a hot mess and 25gb free space just sitting there [02:32] JungleFever: OK. What happens when you use GParted to move sdb4 to the end of the drive? [02:33] well i copied part1 and made it part4, deleted part1 and tried to apply [02:33] got some libparted errors during writing and i had to stop [02:33] now i'm re-imaging the USB drive to try gparted again [02:33] :( [02:33] 12minute wait, try again, problem, boom, rinse repeat and hours go by me trying to fix small problem for noob :(((( [02:36] JungleFever: Copying part1 and making it part4 doesn't make sense . Move sdb4 to the end of the drive so that there is no (or 1 MiB or some other small value) free space after it. Then move sdb3 to be just before sdb4, again no free space following it. Then do the same for sdb2. Then resize sdb1. [02:37] ill have to look at gparted again [02:37] i couldn't really do it the way you said or i missed an option [02:37] JungleFever: If all of that happens without GParted giving you any errors, then you've recieved as much help as we can give you here and you'll have to hope that it still boots. If it doesn't still boot, you'll have to ask pimp's support. If you do that exactly as I said and GParted gives you errors, then I would suspect that your drive is failing (hardware problem). [02:38] hi, quick help anyone? i'm trying to write an .img file (raspbian) to a micro SD card, and startup disk creator, unetbootin, and dd are all not working [02:39] JungleFever: Note that there was no deleting or renumbering or copying involved in my insructions (though GParted will do some of those things in the background for you to achieve the result of moving partitions). [02:40] lefyqqqq: What dd command did you use? What problem did you have? If there was an error message, please pastebin the exact and complete output. [02:41] Jordan_U: thanks! I will get that to you right now [02:41] Jordan_U: sudo dd bs=4M if=/home/user/Desktop/raspi/raspi0.img of=/dev/sdb1 && sync [02:41] So I know ZFS is supported on Ubuntu for data storage [02:42] I was wondering, is there any downside to using a file based VDEV [02:42] I have LVM setup for my disks in RAID1 [02:42] Jordan_U: two error messages usually occur, either "operation not permitted" or "read only file system" [02:43] my sound has disappeared on 17.04 in vm. sound settings shows volume turned to 0%, and nothing is listed in output tab, and test sound button doesnt work [02:43] can anyone help me? thank you [02:45] lefyqqqq: First, make sure that no partitions on sdb are mounted currently "mount | grep sdb". If any are, unmount them before continuing. Then, use of=/dev/sdb, not of=/dev/sdb1 . You need to write the image to the whole drive, not to one partition. Also, remember that dd is nicknamed "Disk Destroyer" for a reason. Make absolutely sure that /dev/sdb is actually the drive whose contents you want to [02:45] completely overwrite with this image, losing all existing data on the drive. [02:47] Jordan_U: thanks! so, I tried sdb as well and also received the "read only file system" error. i unmounted using gui but will try the command too. i don't mind messing with this micro SD, it was $8 only ^.^ [02:47] Jordan_U: i'm thinking maybe the San Disk micro sd to USB adapter i'm using might be "write protected"???? [02:47] Can you recommend a list of settings useful for ubuntu server/development machines? Did I miss something important? https://github.com/qis/test/blob/master/ubuntu.md [02:47] how do I check out the bluetooth usb adapter ? [02:48] lefyqqqq: I don't think that the adaptor is write protected, but the write protect switch on the SD card might be flipped. [02:49] lefyqqqq: I'm not worried about your $8 SD card either, I'm worried that you'll accidentally wipe your internal hard drive instead. [02:50] Jordan_U: thank you also for thinking of my poor little HDD, but fortunately this is a clean install of lubuntu ^.^ i don't even care if it bricks it hahaha. a good problem to have [02:50] Jordan_U: how can I find where to turn off write protect? [02:53] Jordan_U: oh god is it a physical tab on with a lock painted on it on the side of my sd card adapter?? [02:56] Jordan_U: problem solved.... the write protect switch was physically switched on [02:56] Jordan_U: thank you so much :) [02:57] lefyqqqq: You're welcome :) [03:04] Is LXDE lighter weight than XFCE [03:05] Y [03:06] Where is the fix for CVE-2017-9445 ?

[03:13] Jordan_U: it's Kubuntu, maybe why? [03:13] I forgot the number just grabbed what was the latest [03:13] kubunted: No. Kubuntu is released at the exact same time as Ubuntu (they share the same repositories as they're just different flavors). [03:14] Jordan_U: so what abot the evil dns fix? is it available? [03:15] kubunted: It presumably will be once "sudo apt update" has completed. [03:16] Jordan_U: ok, thanx [03:16] kubunted: Though it looks like there are already updates available that haven't been installed. To check for new updates you can use "sudo apt update". To then install any new updates you can use "sudo apt upgrade". [03:17] JungleFever: Have you been able to try my instructions yet? [03:17] Jordan_U: I was clicking on that GUI thingy...Discover i think [03:18] yeah now it works [03:18] been in a hurry forgot to update [03:18] Jordan_U: trying as we speak [03:18] Would LXDE be a lighter weight faster environment than XFCE?

If it ain't broken they'll fix till it is [03:20] EleanorEllis: With 8GB of RAM I would expect that any slowdown is related to your apps using too much RAM, not your DE. Unless a bug is causing your DE to use much more resources than it should, its usage should basically be a drop in the bucket compared to video editing.
