| dprophit | is it ok to get help with ubuntu bind9 in here? | 00:30 |

| Bashing-om | dprophit: Yes, statue your issue to the channel . | 00:33 |
| ollien | I'm trying to change my shell to zsh using chsh -s /usr/bin/zsh but I keep getting the error message "You may not change the shell for 'nick'" Is there a way to fix this? I'm not sure what the issue is | 00:55 |
| leftyfb | ollien: please post the full terminal with error message to pastebin | 01:06 |
| ollien | leftyfb: https://hastebin.com/fixudalacu.rb | 01:07 |
| leftyfb | ollien: what version of ubuntu are you running? | 01:07 |
| ollien | leftyfb: 16.04.2 | 01:08 |
| leftyfb | it's working for me on several machines | 01:09 |
| leftyfb | ollien: did you lock this down somehow or is this a non-standard install? | 01:09 |
| ollien | leftyfb: This is a stock image from digital ocean | 01:09 |
| ollien | No clue what they do to lock that down | 01:09 |
| leftyfb | you'll need to contact them then | 01:09 |
| dprophit | Anyone successfully installed ispconfig and got email and dns working? I have courier + maildrop, bind9 | 01:09 |
| ollien | aight | 01:09 |
| ollien | thanks | 01:09 |
| leftyfb | otherwise, you can just edit /etc/passwd | 01:10 |
| leftyfb | or sudo usermod -s <shell> <username> | 01:10 |
| ollien | leftyfb: I can do that, but I'm curious as to why it doesn't work with chsh | 01:10 |
| glitsj16 | ollien: is zsh installed? | 01:10 |
| ollien | glitsj16: yes | 01:10 |
| leftyfb | ollien: I'm going to guess because of DO's image | 01:10 |
| leftyfb | dprophit: I would highly suggest not bothering with ispconfig | 01:10 |
| ollien | and it's in /etc/shells | 01:10 |
| dprophit | leftyfb: if you know of a better one....open source one | 01:11 |
| leftyfb | dprophit: vim | 01:11 |
| leftyfb | or nano if you don't know vim | 01:11 |
| dprophit | other than an editor =) | 01:11 |
| leftyfb | dprophit: if you're interested in learning how to build/administer a server, then a webUI like ispconfig will achieve quite the opposite results you're looking for | 01:12 |
| leftyfb | likewise if you're trying to run things properly | 01:12 |
| dprophit | leftyfb: Not trying to learn sysadmin. | 01:13 |
| leftyfb | dprophit: see my 2nd point | 01:13 |
| leftyfb | dprophit: webui's like those tend to mess with configs in ways that add confusion and complexity and can even break things. It's also a security risk. It also encourages point-and-click sysadmining | 01:14 |
| dprophit | I get your point. ANyone else? | 01:15 |
| leftyfb | dprophit: can I ask what is your reasoning behind wanting something like ispconfig? | 01:16 |
| dprophit | Easily manage my domain. Focus on what I do which is not being a sysadmin | 01:16 |
| leftyfb | dprophit: there are proper hosted services for such things | 01:17 |
| dprophit | I got your point already. | 01:17 |

| lil__ | I'd love to know if there's a way to have lines of text sent from my terminal to a javascript console in chrome. | 05:37 |
| lil__ | is that possible? what would you suggest I read up on to help myself out? | 05:38 |
| cfhowlett | completely over my head so I could only supply wild guesses. I would suggest #java might know | 05:38 |
| lil__ | I saw online that there's a tool called xdotool that helps with emulating input, but that seemed like it was only for occasional hotkey input not lines of text? | 05:39 |
| cfhowlett | never used it, nor do I do any java stuff so ... | 05:40 |
| cfhowlett | sounds like you are describing piping directly from terminal to java. Gotta be a way, but again --over my head | 05:41 |
| lil__ | thanks either way! good to know its not all computers running the chat haha | 05:42 |
| sirru5h | lil__, java != javascript ... ask in #javascript | 06:01 |
| lil__ | haha, I would never! | 06:02 |
| sirru5h | lil__, I didn't want you to end up in the wrong place ;) | 06:05 |

| beefjoe | sary but why would this laptop not get enough upload on wireless ? | 13:29 |
| sary | beefjoe: it's not clear to me for now , but at this point i'd guess that it could be the wireless driver .. so to be sure test the speed with a wired cable on the laptop. | 13:32 |
| beefjoe | ok will do | 13:32 |
| sary | beefjoe: also, what are the security settings for wifi in the router! | 13:33 |
| oerheks | i would try resetting router first, before doing changes to the config.. | 13:34 |
| blackdalek | How do I find the path to my audio device? e.g. /dev/???? | 13:35 |
| oerheks | ubuntu kino | 13:36 |
| oerheks | blackdalek, hmm, lots of forumposts about that issue .. what is so special about your ubuntu install?? | 13:38 |
| beefjoe | oerheks after router reset I get 0.45 mbps upload for now.. | 13:39 |
| blackdalek | oerheks, nothing special... jsut trying to get Kino's edit screen to work properly, but it needs to know the path for the audio device. It points to "/dev/dsp" by default. I need to change it to point to the correct path... but I can't figure out what the correct path should be. | 13:40 |
| beefjoe | doing a speedtest again gives 0 upload speed :( | 13:40 |
| sary | blackdalek: from " man dsp " /dev/dsp is the default audio device in the system. In Kino, Edit -> Preferences -> Audio Tab -> Audio Device /dev/dsp , Change the default open command for *.kino files to "padsp kino" . | 13:47 |
| blackdalek | sary, what is padsp? | 13:49 |
| blackdalek | I get no man page entry for dsp | 13:51 |
| sary | blackdalek: i think the pa stands for pulseuadio, with dsp it is acting as an OSS application that is not aware of pulseuadio, so has to be told where to find the sound device. | 13:51 |
| sary | blackdalek: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man7/dsp.7.html | 13:52 |
| blackdalek | Are you saying there is no way to simply tell Kino a new path? I have to launch Kino through padsp instead? | 13:53 |
| sary | blackdalek: The device files for sound devices are located at /dev/snd/ | 13:59 |
| blackdalek | is /dev/snd/controlC0 the audio device? | 14:03 |

| Muskedunder | In addition to that: When I try to open any one of the mp3's with Audacious, it tells me "Error reading metadata" | 15:31 |
| RonWhoCares | How do I resolve the conflict @ https://pastebin.com/FyLPkzDp | 15:36 |
| Dirkos | My problem is at the wifi adapter it seems! | 15:36 |
| cfhowlett | renn0xtk9, time to upgrade. install skypeforlinux from the repos | 15:42 |
| pavlos | RonWhoCares: seems you need to clean up your sources.list these are Warnings | 15:42 |
| RonWhoCares | pavlos: Manually? | 15:42 |
| oerheks | maybe that skype ppa is dead ... http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/06/skype-4-3-linux-stop-working-july-2017 | 15:43 |
| oerheks | you are not the 1st one | 15:44 |
| RonWhoCares | What is the package manager for Ubuntu 16.04 | 15:44 |
| oerheks | apt | 15:44 |
| RonWhoCares | I mean I don't see the software manager icon in my 'system settings' | 15:45 |
| oerheks | it is in "sources" | 15:46 |
| Menzador | Oh, the graphical package management software? The default is Ubuntu Software. | 15:46 |
| m00n_urn | hey! | 15:46 |
| m00n_urn | why does ubuntu 14.04's resolv.conf empty? except for a warning to not edit the file? | 15:46 |
| Menzador | "Software Manager" is a Mint thing | 15:46 |
| RonWhoCares | I am trying to think of the one that shows all the PPA sourfces | 15:46 |
| oerheks | software&updates>sources | 15:47 |
| Menzador | m00n_urn: You're actually looking for /run/resolvconf/resolve.conf , /etc/resolve.conf points to it | 15:47 |
| m00n_urn | why does ubuntu 14.04's resolv.conf empty? except for a warning to not edit the file? | 15:47 |
| Menzador | * /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf , ** /etc/resolv.conf points to it | 15:47 |
| pavlos | RonWhoCares: in control settings there is a software & updates, then other software tab shows ppa's | 15:48 |
| Menzador | So if you're looking to add networking to a chroot you'll want to copy /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf into the chroot's /etc/resolv.conf | 15:49 |
| m00n_urn | Menzador: symlink? coz /etc/resolv.conf is empty but run/resolvconf/resolv.conf has nameserver 127.0.0.1 | 15:50 |
| Menzador | Yes, it is a symlink | 15:50 |
| oerheks | m00n_urn, dns is handled by network-manager, that is why it is empty | 15:50 |
| m00n_urn | but shouldn't symlink be a mirror of the file? | 15:51 |
| Menzador | and symlinked elsewhere | 15:51 |
| m00n_urn | alright | 15:51 |
| sary | Muskedunder: run$ gksudo nautilus .. see if you are able to copy them! | 15:52 |
| RonWhoCares | how do I purge skype | 15:52 |
| m00n_urn | Menzador: can network-manager opened up using the command? | 15:52 |
| oerheks | !ppapurge | 15:52 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 15:52 |
| Menzador | m00n_urn: nm-applet | 15:53 |
| m00n_urn | RonWhoCares: apt-get remove skyp[tab] && apt-get purge skyp[tab] && apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean && updatedb | 15:53 |
| m00n_urn | Menzador: nm-applet gives me error | 15:54 |
| Menzador | The latest Skype client for Linux can be had through Flatpak, not sure if there's a PPA | 15:54 |
| Menzador | m00n_urn: Can you not get to it? | 15:55 |
| oerheks | m00n_urn, well, just use the networkmanager from your desktop, easy .. | 15:55 |
| oerheks | if you open an applet from commandline, you will get warnings indeed | 15:55 |
| m00n_urn | okay | 16:01 |

| BluesKaj | Giant81, using sudo | 16:07 |
| fallentree | oerheks: hardly secure when systemd elevates service privileges to root if it wants to run under a username that start with a number. | 16:07 |
| Giant81 | Not showing disabled anymore | 16:09 |
| BluesKaj | try network manager | 16:09 |
| fallentree | Elish: no. if you want a properly hardened system, look for things like grsecurity, selinux, no systemd, etc... | 16:10 |
| Giant81 | Still shows down , let me see if I can see any ssids | 16:10 |
| Elish | fallentree, thanks | 16:11 |
| Giant81 | After a restart I see networks now | 16:12 |
| Menzador | No systemd | 16:12 |
| Giant81 | So I can learn, what was the problem? | 16:12 |
| Menzador | That's an "init wars" argument | 16:13 |
| Menzador | Giant81: Probably had to do with the Ethernet being connected | 16:13 |
| fallentree | Menzador: it is not. when the developers of said init system refuse to fix a security vulnerability, then the argument is against that init system in a secure environment. plain and simple. | 16:14 |
| Giant81 | Ethernet wasn't connected | 16:14 |
| Giant81 | Chatting on my phone | 16:14 |
| Menzador | fallentree: But at this point systemd is more than just init - it's a microkernel/userspace daemon, which means security becomes complicated. Anyway, that's all I'm about to say | 16:15 |
| Giant81 | I'll chalk it up to an anomaly since it was the first boot | 16:16 |
| Giant81 | Maybe a reboot would have fixed it to begin with, ty very much for the help | 16:16 |
| fallentree | Menzador: which changes absolutely nothing about the fact that it should not be used in a secure environment. | 16:18 |
| oerheks | fallentree, do you have a bugreport on that? | 16:20 |
| Menzador | Yes, I should like to inspect | 16:20 |
| fallentree | oerheks: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6237 | 16:20 |
| oerheks | ty | 16:21 |
| Menzador | "I wonder which tool allowed you to create it in the 1st place. | 16:22 |
| oerheks | fallentree, so it s not a bug in systemd itself.. but ugly indeed | 16:23 |
| fallentree | oerheks: of course it is a bug in systemd | 16:23 |
| fallentree | you create a user, ask a process to be run under that user, and it runs as root. | 16:23 |
| === evade_ is now known as evade | ||
| oerheks | No, it is a shadow-utils issue, adduser complains, useradd doesn't. | 16:24 |
| sary | Muskedunder: while the drive plugged in , run$ ls /media , Make a note of the folder name (/media/name) and then run: sudo chown -R username:username /media/mount-point(drive name) , Change username:username with your own username . | 16:24 |
| fallentree | oerheks: no it is not. systemd is elevating to root. period. | 16:24 |
| fallentree | oerheks: besides, '0day' username is POSIX compliant. | 16:25 |
| fallentree | the tools allow it because the tools are POSIX compliant. | 16:25 |
| fallentree | which is beside the point! systemd runs a service configured to run as unprivileged user, as root. period. | 16:25 |
| Menzador | https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6237#issuecomment-312479534 | 16:26 |
| fallentree | a service was asked to be run as non root. that criteria could not be met because <reasons>. the proper response is: fail to run the service until the admin corrects the problem. | 16:27 |
| Aison | it looks like ubuntu zesty cannot handle VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller | 16:31 |
| Aison | I have to boot with nomodeset | 16:31 |
| Aison | but then I get a resolution of 1024x768 only | 16:31 |
| Muskedunder | sary: Thanks, but when I enter that, the process is stuck... But literally all subfolders are marked "drwxrwxrwx", so I should have permission? | 16:39 |
| Muskedunder | ...in the first place | 16:39 |
| Menzador | OK, I'm back. Drive through a giant no service area | 16:43 |
| Menzador | TL;DR: shadow-utils fails itself. systemd detects invalid user, it logs the service and watches as units fail to load. | 16:44 |
| fallentree | Menzador: uh it doesn't fail to load. it starts the service as root. '0day' has a UID in the system, it is not an invalid user. | 16:46 |
| fallentree | the problem is in systemd parsing 0 and ignoring day. the problem is in systemd wrongly parsing the User= entry. | 16:47 |
| Menzador | Well there's a reason for that | 16:48 |
| Menzador | User= is for SYSTEM USERS ONLY | 16:48 |
| Menzador | Not regular ones | 16:48 |
| Menzador | shadow-utils ultimately is at fault here for permitting invalid usernames without complaint | 16:49 |
| fallentree | Menzador: that is not true, read the systemd.exec manpage | 16:49 |
| fallentree | User=, Group= Set the UNIX user or group that the processes are executed as, respectively. | 16:49 |
| fallentree | "Takes a single user or group name, or numeric ID as argument." | 16:50 |
| fallentree | it fails at "numeric ID" because it doesn't parse the whole value | 16:50 |
| Menzador | It will run, but THE UNIT WILL FAIL | 16:52 |
| fallentree | it will not fail, I'm running one right now. | 16:52 |
| fallentree | you don't even have to have '0day' user on the system, it will still run, because it parses only the 0 part, and not the 'day' part. I'm running a test service right now. no failure, runs as root, with User=0day (the user doesn't exist on the system) | 16:59 |
| sary | Muskedunder: I don't know what the nautilus error means.. could it be that there sre folders on your external hard drive that are encrypted@ ## on the mounted disk. Type mount to see if /media/yourUser/DriveName .... has somewhere the options "rw", and How are you copying the files from the external drive! which filysystem the drive formatted as? | 16:59 |
| fallentree | so you see, it has ZERO to do with shadow utils, doesn't matter what useradd does. you don't have to touch useradd. systemd will parse User= wrongly. | 17:00 |
| Menzador | I may want to run a few tests on this myself. | 17:04 |
| sary | Aison: You can set/add resolutions to the monitor app using "xrandr" . | 17:04 |

| Jakethepython1 | so this is the root of the problem? | 21:01 |
| pavlos | Jakethepython1: so, sudo apt install -f does not fix things, right? | 21:05 |

| noraatepernos | I’m trying to upgrade a package salt-master. I did sudo add-apt-repository ppa:saltstack/salt but when I upgrade the version is stuck at 2015.5.3. How do I force apt-get to use the saltstack ppa when I upgrade? | 21:46 |
| noraatepernos | When I list available versions I only show 2015.5.3. I need to update salt-master to 2015.8.8. | 21:46 |

| blackadder1337 | hey, if I double-click a python script which has +x, it opens as .txt file. the script is in a folder on Desktop. The directory has spaces, but I tried no spaces and it's the same - the script opens as txt file. But if I move the script to desktop, it runs...any solutions when it comes to running it from inside of the directory? | 22:14 |

| gringolo | hey can someone please help me? I tried to install openproj and i think i crushed my "apt-get". I tried to install with the help of this webpage: https://ballo.wordpress.com/2014/11/27/how-to-install-openproject-on-ubuntu-14-04/. I copied those first lines with "wget -qO ..." and the second one. After that when i try to do something with "sudo apt-get update" for example. there is this error showing up: E: Typ »“deb« in Zeile 1 | 22:56 |
| gringolo | E: Typ »“deb« in Zeile 1 der Quellliste /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openproject.list ist unbekannt. E: Die Liste der Quellen konnte nicht gelesen werden. | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: oh your German | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | whats that in English | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | the error message | 22:57 |
| gringolo | Type >"deb< in first line of the list /etc/... is unknown | 22:58 |
| gringolo | the list of the source could not be read | 22:59 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: who is ballo ? | 22:59 |
| gringolo | i dont know | 22:59 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: don't use the install insturctions for anything from some random webpage, that's good advice for a start | 22:59 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: you could probably trust something like omgubuntu even though that's unoffical, but otherwise its best to stick to more offical sources such as askubuntu | 22:59 |
| sebsebseb | !support | 22:59 |
| ubottu | The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org and http://askubuntu.com | 22:59 |
| gringolo | ok | 23:00 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: too me it looks like you tried to run some random commands off some random webpage going by the link | 23:00 |
| edwinksl | lol i see the url for askubuntu is still using http instead of https :P | 23:00 |
| sebsebseb | now if those commands are meant to work or not, that's not the point | 23:00 |
| sebsebseb | it was a random webpage really, that's the point | 23:00 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: with that said though, what is openproject really ? | 23:00 |
| gringolo | openproj is a project management software | 23:00 |
| sebsebseb | yep repos, offical pages, offical sites, not random webpages | 23:00 |
| sebsebseb | !find openproj | 23:01 |
| ubottu | Found: W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W: (and 110 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=openproj&searchon=names&suite=zesty§ion=all | 23:01 |
| sebsebseb | !find openproject | 23:01 |
| ubottu | File openproject found in qtcreator-dev | 23:01 |
| sebsebseb | hmm | 23:01 |
| sebsebseb | not sure if its in the ubuntu repos, but if it is, thats where to get from really | 23:01 |
| gringolo | i think it is an old programme | 23:02 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: also 14.04 for now still supported, but why not running 16.04 ? | 23:02 |
| gringolo | they stopped making updates and so on in 2012? | 23:02 |
| edwinksl | there are official installation instructions here https://www.openproject.org/download-and-installation/ | 23:02 |
| gringolo | i think im using a pretty new ubuntu | 23:02 |
| edwinksl | what version? | 23:03 |
| edwinksl | there are instructions for 14.04 and 16.04 at the url i posted | 23:03 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: 14.04 is the previous lts so not new really | 23:03 |
| sebsebseb | !lts | 23:03 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions are supported for 5 years on the desktop and server. The latest LTS version of Ubuntu is !Xenial (Xenial Xerus 16.04.1). Ubuntu !flavors may have different support durations, check their release notes for information. | 23:03 |
| gringolo | damn i could not find that page :D | 23:03 |
| gringolo | where can i look up my version? :D | 23:03 |
| edwinksl | lsb_release -a | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | edwinksl: should he/she/they be concerend about trying to do the random page instructins you reckeon? | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | edwinksl: and that something maybe got installed from it or nearly | 23:04 |
| edwinksl | let me compare the instructions | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: 17.04 is the current non lts latest release as well, so yep your on a old thing with 14.4 | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | 14.4 | 23:04 |
| gringolo | i am using 16.04 | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | ok well you put 14.04 earlier | 23:05 |
| gringolo | yes, on this webpage i think they were using 14.04 or something. but my pc is running 16.04. :) | 23:05 |
| jmadero | hi all, still having an issue with a self made .desktop file I've put in my /usr/share/applications folder that isn't appearing in my applications | 23:05 |
| gringolo | i only copied the first 3, 4 lines | 23:06 |
| gringolo | well, i think the third line: "sudo apt-get update" did not work anymore | 23:06 |
| edwinksl | gringolo: use the instructions for 16.04 using the website i gave | 23:07 |
| edwinksl | you were using instructions for 14.04 | 23:07 |
| edwinksl | also the wordpress blog used – in their sudo apt-key add command but you need to use - instead. – vs - (there is a difference) | 23:08 |
| gringolo | but still my "sudo apt-get update" does not work anymore. :/ | 23:09 |
| Ben64 | gringolo: you probably have some weird characters in the file you created from the first place | 23:10 |
| Ben64 | gringolo: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openproject.list | 23:11 |
| gringolo | YES! This worked! :D | 23:11 |
| gringolo | thank you Ben64 !! | 23:12 |
| gringolo | and also thanks to sebsebseb and edwinksl ! | 23:12 |
| edwinksl | yeah do what Ben64 suggested and try installing again | 23:13 |
| edwinksl | should work this time | 23:13 |
| gringolo | well one last thing... my terminal says that there does not exist a command like "deb" :D | 23:13 |
| gringolo | i should use debc, dab, dub, .... instead?! | 23:14 |
| gringolo | or xdeb? | 23:14 |
| singer22 | what you trying to do? | 23:15 |
| singer22 | install a deb file? | 23:15 |
| sebsebseb | gringolo: your welcome | 23:15 |
| gringolo | yes. | 23:15 |
| gringolo | no wait | 23:15 |
| singer22 | i like gdebi...if you dont have it you can install gdebi with synaptic | 23:15 |
| gringolo | i try to run this command: deb https://deb.packager.io/gh/opf/openproject-ce xenial stable/7 | 23:16 |
| gringolo | see here: https://www.openproject.org/download-and-installation/ | 23:16 |
| gringolo | installation for ubuntu 16.04 | 23:16 |
| Phanes | is stacked filesystem encryption recommended over block device encryption models for externals on ubuntu systems? | 23:16 |
| singer22 | where does it say use deb https? | 23:17 |
| singer22 | sorry i see it | 23:18 |
| gringolo | 2. Add the OpenProject package source | 23:18 |
| edwinksl | gringolo: you are not supposed to run that command as is | 23:18 |
| edwinksl | you are supposed to add it to a file named `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/openproject.list` | 23:19 |
| gringolo | oh ok | 23:19 |
| edwinksl | read the instructions carefully | 23:19 |
| edwinksl | you don't want to do bad things accidentally :P | 23:19 |
| gringolo | :D | 23:20 |
| gringolo | i will give it a try with "touch ...." | 23:20 |
| gringolo | and insert this line | 23:20 |
| singer22 | those instructions are a little weird | 23:20 |
| singer22 | i wonder they just have it added to the regular sources list? | 23:21 |
| edwinksl | nope they are adding a .list file to the sources.list.d directory | 23:22 |
| gringolo | okay. something is installing :D | 23:23 |
| singer22 | rofl | 23:23 |
| edwinksl | i would have preferred to use echo with sudo tee in the instructions as opposed to asking users to create a file in a directory owned by root | 23:23 |
| edwinksl | gringolo: nice, good luck | 23:24 |
| Giant81 | here is one for you, installed groogle-chrome-stable from the google repo | 23:27 |
| Giant81 | open it up, go to a local page tha tneeds flash | 23:27 |
| Giant81 | says it's getting flash, then asks to restart the browser so it can activate it | 23:27 |
| Giant81 | I do | 23:27 |
| Giant81 | now I go to that page, I get an error it needs flash 10.0 or higher | 23:27 |
| Giant81 | wouldn't it have gotten a later version of flash? | 23:28 |
| Giant81 | wait, I'm installing restricted-etras now, lets see if this help | 23:31 |
| Giant81 | nope, no luck, same error | 23:33 |
| Giant81 | on both FF and chrome, any ideas what I can try next? | 23:34 |
| edwinksl | maybe something like this https://askubuntu.com/a/576569/15003 | 23:36 |
| tomreyn | Giant81: flash is dead, put it to the grave it belongs to. | 23:38 |
| Giant81 | I would, but the page i'm trying to use (made by someone else) is using it | 23:38 |
| Giant81 | I'd prefer they built it in HTML5 | 23:38 |
| tomreyn | IIRC chromium /chrome still supports flash via its pepperflash plugin API | 23:40 |
| Phanes | Giant81, if all conversations like the one you're currently having ended with "well i just wont support it because its flash" then people will stop building things in flash. | 23:40 |
| tomreyn | firefox's NPAPI has it entirely disable dnow except on the ESR release channel | 23:40 |
| * Phanes wonders why this kind of effort isn't put into supporting java browser applets anymore | 23:41 | |
| tomreyn | if web site / application developers failed to adapt on time (this has been announced since mid last year), that's entirely their fault, not yours. | 23:41 |
| Giant81 | Phanes: I agree, but I can't really go back and yell at cisco to fix their promo IOS XE programming lab thumb drive | 23:41 |
| Phanes | right. so what you do is drop the vendor for another product or dont take the contract. | 23:42 |
| Giant81 | lol | 23:42 |
| tomreyn | ideally after yelling at them ;) | 23:42 |
| Phanes | yep | 23:42 |
| Giant81 | I know in a perfect world that wold be great, but here in the real world, that doesn't happen as often as it should | 23:43 |
| Phanes | as someone who turns down contracts when he sees technical debt in actively sold products i can assure you that it happens in the real world quite often. the problem is conversations like there where people throw around excuse-words like "dont boil the ocean" or "in a perfect world". | 23:44 |
| tomreyn | also in the real world, any vendor which matters (or thinks they should matter in the futre) has taken steps enabling you to use their products without flash | 23:44 |
| Phanes | bingo | 23:45 |
| Phanes | talk to your procurement guy and tell him its unsupportable | 23:45 |
| gringolo | bye. :) | 23:46 |
| mrzl | Hello | 23:48 |
| mrzl | How are you guys doing? | 23:48 |
| Giant81 | well to be honest as I think about it, it's not cisco, it's whoever built the YANGexplorer that cisco packaged into this lab | 23:52 |
| Giant81 | https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/yang-explorer nevermind it is cisco's | 23:53 |
