My Arch install is setup on an Xfs partition, and I need to shrink it so I can setup a dual boot with Ubuntu. I can't do it in gparted, and the best instructions I can find on the internet are either lacking detail, in german, or require a Red Hat License to access. === sul-fyr is now known as sulfyr === nolsen is now known as FAT32 [02:54] danielhuman, nope, currently not possible. try arch channels again? === nolse- is now known as nolsen [03:33] Hi folks - trying to figure out a puzzle on a 16.04.3 machine. I've got inet static set in my /etc/network/interfaces for eth0, but the interface is pulling DHCP anyways. I see "IP-Config:" lines during boot, but I can't figure out what's generating them [03:33] Just installed Tilix (formerly terminix) and trying to change theme to dark. Set it in the preferences and tried restarting tilix from every different way to quit it but it just doesn't seem to work. [03:33] (more concerningly, that IP-Config stuff is nowhere in my logs) [03:34] pretty sure if I knew what system was generating those lines I could take it from there [03:36] it looks like: IP-Config: eth0 hardware address e0:db:55:0c:34:7e mtu 1500 DHCP [03:41] Karunamon: I am not an expert . but 16.04 uses Predictable-Network-Interface-Names; unless you have re-configured the interface will not be eth0 . What shows ' [03:41] Karunamon: I am not an expert . but 16.04 uses Predictable-Network-Interface-Names; unless you have re-configured the interface will not be eth0 . What shows ' ip link ls ' ? [03:43] does anybody who has configured php7.0-fpm/nginx on 16.04? [03:43] •Bashing-om• I did set that option. /etc/default/grub has a "net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0" in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX [03:43] I can't log errors after I tried all the configurations [03:44] anybody who could give me a hand? [03:44] I have one NIC in the machine so unlearning a decade of muscle memory to type a longer name was a pain in the arse [03:44] :) [03:50] Karunamon: Well, resetting the interface name is not something I have done , so take with a grain of salt , and we will struggle on . does ' ip link ls ' show eth0 ? [03:50] it does [03:51] and the interface works normally if I set the address by hand with 'ip', this behavior only appears when booting up [03:51] K, do we get an IP ' arp -a ' ? [03:52] yes, very many [03:52] connectivity is fine - i just want the nic to stop coming up with a DHCP address in favor of the one I explicitly set [03:54] Karunamon: nd then ' cat /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf ' managed=true ? [03:55] That directory doesnt exist as network-manager was purged [03:55] cat /etc/resolv.conf [03:55] (wrong window) [03:56] Karunamon: "journalctl | grep -i IP-Config" produce any output? [03:56] none [03:56] neither does a "grep -i ip-config /var/log' [03:56] it's nowhere. [03:56] (err, grep -ri ip-config /var/log/) [04:01] ugh prosody will not launch. I've started the service and it says it's running. I've checked the logs and it doesn't show that it's running [04:02] Hi, im working with iptables. But everytime i restart th iptables load some rules that reject my traffic. I dont know how to erase those rules [04:03] Jordan_U: Karunamon :: resolv.conf issue ?? ' cat /etc/resolv.conf ' . [04:03] uh... sorry? that was an unrelated command mistakenly typed into the chat [04:04] i have to Insert the rules above the default or flush, but after restart the default rules remains. [04:05] Karunamon: Maybe not . I have seen some wierd results with inconsistent resolv.conf file . [04:06] Ah, gotcha [04:06] nothing weird here, two nameserver: lines that are correct and a search: line that is correct [04:14] Karunamon: Not real sure here but systemd wants /etc/resolv.conf to have the loop back IP ?? .. and put the dns-nameservers in /etc/network/interfaces ?? [04:15] Bashing-om, /etc/resolv.conf is being handled by resolvconf - dns-nameservers and dns-search is present in /etc/network/interfaces [04:18] hello, is there a way to pass flags to the configure script when running dpkg-reconfigure? I tried setting the 'DEB_CONFIGURE_EXTRA_FLAGS', but it seemed to have no effect [04:20] I did something really dumb and formatted my /boot partition. Now I am not sure how to fix it. No backups. I tried apt-get --reinstall install linux-generic but it didn't reinstall any kernel files to /boot [04:20] what should I do? [04:20] I REALLY don't want to reinstall... [04:20] Karunamon: Correct. My 16.04 NM /etc/resolv.conf file : http://termbin.com/53fg , Where I expect " nameserver 127.0.1.1 " to be set in yours . [04:20] bodangly, stop what you [04:21] are doing and back up your data before you do ANYTHING else [04:24] Hi, is there a music player for Ubuntu which chooses which song to play next automatically based on patterns of what you listen to ? [04:28] Sorry lost connection... as I was saying, after wiping /boot, apt-get --reinstall install linux-generic didn't add back the files. [04:28] My important files are all pushed to a remote git, so I am fine there [04:29] But getting ubuntu running on this laptop was a project that I don't care to repeat. Any help at all is much appreciated [04:31] bodangly: What release ? [04:37] Ugh, unstable wifi not helping my situation.... [04:38] bodangly: What release ? See if we can install the image and headers . [04:38] 17.04 [04:39] Bashing-om, I would think he could boot a USB , chroot and install --- of course, I've never actually DONE this but it sounds like a cool theory ... [04:39] sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-generic ? [04:39] that runs but also doesn't add anything to /boot [04:39] !info linux-image-generic zesty [04:39] linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 4.10.0.32.32 (zesty), package size 2 kB, installed size 13 kB [04:40] cfhowlett: Hope that bodangly Has not rebooted to this time . and we can still install . [04:40] No, have not rebooted ;) [04:41] bodangly, no one else asked, so I will: why / how did you decide to format /boot again? [04:42] Dumbass mistake. I was at a UPS store trying to print a PDF, stuck a thumb drive in, realized it was ext2, went to format it, and in a rush was not paying attention. [04:42] And typed my password twice like a moron. [04:42] I immediately realized what I did. I did get the PDF printed though lol [04:43] bodangly: Try ' sudo apt-get update && sudo apt install --reinstall linux-image-4.10.0-32-generic linux-headers-4.10.0-32-generic linux-headers-4.10.0-32 ' . [04:43] bodangly: sudo apt update ** [04:44] if i have my own package that im working on, can i put it in the list so another library can find it during autoconf ./configure ? [04:49] woohoo I have a kernel and initrd, system map, etc in /boot now [04:49] thanks [04:49] bodangly, so you [04:49] are fixed? [04:49] bodangly: Wait one . still thin'n to complete this . [04:49] so now though, I probably need to reinstall grub, and make sure my fstab is updated to point to the correct /boot since I formatted it? [04:50] !info linux-image-extra zesty [04:50] Package linux-image-extra does not exist in zesty [04:50] sudo grub-update not reinstall I should think [04:52] bodangly: Let's repeat for a backup kernel . what kernel ? ' ls -al /vmlinuz* ' . [04:53] 4.10.0-32 [04:53] bodangly: Not an " /vmlinuz.old " ? [04:54] nope [04:55] bodangly: Let me see what I can find then for a back up kernel . [04:55] sure, thanks [04:56] having an issue where I edited a file as root but now the service in question cannot access the file. [04:56] any hints? [04:57] I tried chown [04:59] bodangly: Be faster if you pick the one under -32 from ' apt list linux-headers '. [05:00] so 4.10.0-30 ? [05:00] How do I install it as a backup? Never have had to do that before. At least I am learning new tricks from this. [05:01] bodangly: Yepper .. looks good nuif to me . doooo it . [05:02] do I need to download the .deb and install it with dpkg-i ? Or is there another way? [05:02] bodangly: same same as for the -32 kernel . ' sudo update-grub ' Then we want to fix the symlinks in / . [05:03] ah ok [05:03] bodangly: with the jope that the -30 jernel is still in the repo . [05:03] hope* [05:04] looks like it is [05:06] Bashing-om: ok installed and ran update-grub [05:07] Is there a music player for Ubuntu with suggestion feature ? [05:08] does anybody who has configured php7.0-fpm/nginx on 16.04? [05:09] bodangly: ' ls -al /vmlinuz* /initrd.img* ' Now is there /vmlinuz.old and /initrd.img.old ? [05:09] nope still just vmlinuz [05:09] should I manually make the symlinks? [05:10] bodangly: Bout what I expected . do you know how to make up the symlinks for the .old files ? [05:10] Bashing-om: ln -sf boot/vmlinuz-4.10.0-30-generic vmlinuz.old [05:11] and likewise for initrd? [05:11] guess I need no f, just a habit [05:11] (a bad one) [05:12] sudo ln -s /boot/vmlinuz-4.10.0-30-generic /vmlinuz.old . [05:13] right, well, I was doing it in /, should be the same right? [05:13] looks like its all done [05:14] vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-4.10.0-32-generic, and vmlinuz.old -> boot/vmlinuz-4.10.0-30-generic [05:14] likewise for initrd.img and initrd.img.old [05:14] bodangly: consider a moment . but I think maybe reboot time . less we can come up with a reason not to float test it and see . [05:15] Is there a music player for Ubuntu with suggestion feature ? [05:16] so it looks like 2384ef94-1dd1-4edc-a722-73159782b872 -> ../../nvme0n1p1 if i ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid, which is different than /boot in /etc/fstab, so I think I have to update that as well [05:16] hi how do i upgrade firefox in ubuntu 14.04lts? [05:22] bodangly: I an very surprised that the UUID would change ! what shows ' sudo blkid -c /dev/null -o list ' ? [05:23] ext4 (not mounted) 2384ef94-1dd1-4edc-a722-73159782b872 [05:23] oh shit... [05:23] not mounted! [05:23] that meants /boot is all in /? I probably need to mount it and rerun everything [05:24] # /boot was on /dev/nvme0n1p1 during installation [05:24] 10 UUID=3f7decf6-9c04-43d9-b293-d46f2cc447f4 /boot ext4 defaults [05:24] thats my original fstab [05:24] so it looks like it did change. [05:25] can I just tar up the /boot that is presumably sitting in my rootfs, and then mount the other and extract, or will I need to rerun the apt commands? [05:25] tar -pczvf should work, right? [05:26] bodangly: Seperate /boot partition ? ' verify ' sudo fdisk -lu ' . But I can not see that having a seperate /boot would confuse the install of the kernels . [05:28] was not mounted during all this :x [05:28] dev/nvme0n1p1 * 2048 999423 997376 487M 83 Linux [05:28] bodangly: Now if you deleted the /boot partition then YES the UUID would change when the partitiom was re-created . [05:28] I am pretty sure I just reformatted, but its immaterial really, the uuid is what it is so I will make sure it matches [05:29] but to move all I just did to the separate /boot, can i just tar it up with -pczvf, mount the separate boot, and extract there? [05:30] bodangly: That is a scary thought to me . I would prefer to purge what we did . and with /boot mounted then re-install once more . [05:31] I see [05:32] bodangly: Be no worse off than when we started . and in a much better position then to re-install . [05:34] so do I just apt-get purge the linux headers and image and then re-run the installs? [05:35] anyone here done GPU passthrough with kvm before? [05:35] I'm having trouble getting the card I want to passthrough to use vfio-pci. [05:35] The audio device seems to work but the GPU does not. [05:38] bodangly: One liner ' sudo apt purge linux-{headers,image}-3.10.0-{30,32}-generic linux-headers-4.10.0-{30,32} linux-image-extra ' . should do it . [05:39] brb [05:39] opps no linux-image-extra in zesty ! [05:39] Bashing-om: thanks, I'll have to pick this up where I left off in a few hours. Thanks for all your help [05:40] I think I'll be fine now though, thanks again! [05:40] bodangly: K, You know now it can be done :) [05:41] Also what was wrong with the stack overflow answers. [05:41] later man [05:41] bodangly: Hood note [05:42] bodangly: Good nite \o [06:31] good morning to all [06:31] Does anyone know how to get the 65:00.0 to properly use vfio-pci? [06:32] http://paste.ubuntu.com/25317303/ [06:33] edge226: tell us a bit more about your problem please? ubuntu version? [06:34] 17.04 I am attempting to do kvm/qemu gpu passthrough and from my understanding I need the GPU to be vfio-pci for kvm to be able to see it. [06:35] !kvm | edge226 can this help you? [06:35] edge226 can this help you?: kvm is the preferred virtualization approach in Ubuntu. For more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM [06:37] lotuspsychje: that does not help me no. [06:38] lotuspsychje: the issue is that noveau and on another partition the nvidia drivers are taking the card before vfio-pci can capture it for KVM to use. [06:39] edge226: what about this? https://askubuntu.com/questions/939351/virt-install-with-kvm-off-option/939632 [06:39] lotuspsychje: while reading around in other documentation the arch wiki states that if another drive is loaded with early modesetting that vfio modules need to precede it, This leads me to believe the nouveau module is loading before vfio-pci. [06:40] lotuspsychje: I'm not at that part yet. [06:40] edge226: this looks like a clean tut aswell: https://zllovesuki.git.sx/essays/2015/09/gpu-passthrough-via-vfio-pci-with-kvm-on-ubuntu-1504/ [06:42] edge226: there's also a nice #kvm channel if you like [06:43] lotuspsychje: hmm perhaps that is a more appropriate place to ask. Thank you. [06:44] edge226: i didn say that, as your issue is still about ubuntu, but it can widen your options [06:54] lotuspsychje: well at this point it feels like I'm never going to get the right driver to load in Ubuntu... [06:55] edge226: dont give up too soon, to get your issue solved repeat once in a while here, with all your details [06:56] lotuspsychje: I've been trying for days so far. [06:56] edge226: ubuntu 17.04 trying..with card... etc [06:56] edge226: install the nvidia proprietary driver ? [06:56] Bashing-om: I could. I had that on another install and I was getting the same result. [06:59] edge226: for the GTX1060 nvidia recommends the 384 version driver . Available in our trusted PPA . http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/120917/en-us . [06:59] Bashing-om: install the proprietary for the host GPU but not the shared right? [07:00] Bashing-om: the 1060 is going to be the shared GPU, the host is a 750Ti [07:00] edge226: More I do not know than what I do about your use case . but yes install on the host . [07:01] Bashing-om: So there is a PPA for updated nvidia drivers? [07:02] edge226: See: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa . [07:09] Bashing-om: that has been updated but now it is just pushing both cards through nvidia instead of nouveau [07:11] edge226: Right . is that not better to do passthrough ? [07:12] Bashing-om: afaik it needs to be vfio-pci so kvm can access the card. [07:15] Oh wait I think I figured it out. [07:16] Thanks. [07:17] edge226: edge226 Great : " Kernel driver in use: vfio-pci " : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF#Using_vfio-pci . [07:21] edge226: how did you fix? [07:21] looked under the right category for my GPU lol [07:22] !yay | edge226 [07:23] lotuspsychje: We need a dax adjustment ? [07:23] yeah seems like it Bashing-om [07:23] !info linux-image-generic [07:23] Package linux-image-generic does not exist in zesty [07:23] Bashing-om: only a part of the bot, so it seems [07:24] lotuspsychje: Save the adjustment for a later time as I be backing down and going out . I try to recall :) [07:40] anyone know why my file transfer doesnt want to resume via ftp? [07:40] it just fails the second time [07:40] maybe permissions [07:43] i'm not sure what to change it to [08:07] nevermind i figured it out === ShalokShalom_ is now known as ShalokShalom === jstein_ is now known as jstein === kallesbar_ is now known as kallesbar [09:38] Hi folks [09:55] people, i have an image that i want to blur, how can i do that in ubuntu? [09:58] acresearch: gimp [09:59] acresearch: ^ or using mogrify from CLI [09:59] glitsj16: gimp is a very big and complicated program i want to avoid it for something as small as just to blur 1 image [09:59] EriC^^: [10:00] glitsj16: mogrify? sudo apt install mogrify? [10:01] acresearch: mogrify is part of the imagemagick package, comes with a very detailed man page [10:02] "Mogrify overwrites the original image file, whereas, convert(1) writes to a different image file." [10:02] ohhh ok,,,, mogrify -(what flag to blur?) image.jpg [10:02] From the man page of mogrify(1). [10:03] acresearch: wru2 shows yet another alternative, it depends on what/how you want to blur really [10:06] glitsj16: well, i don't know what different types of bluring there are, but generally remove the details of a face, or make words unreadable etc... [10:11] acresearch: could be as easy as 'convert /path/to/image.jpg -blur 0x5 /path/to/blurred.jpg' .. but that does blur the image as a whole .. if you need to blur specific parts of an image it gets more complicated and gimp might be a faster/easier option [10:16] thank you very much, works nicely === matias is now known as Guest45769 === Guest45769 is now known as Ulabanderos [10:42] Someone here with hardware skills?

My 'phones are wireless, but connected to my audio system which is also has a spdif connection from my pc [14:11] :( === Israphel is now known as Guest24530 [14:12] arun007, usb tethering to what kind of device? === Israphel_ is now known as Israphel [14:18] I need help badly [14:18] Sorry, i am back [14:18] BluesKaj: PC [14:20] So i uninstalled unbuntu in windows 7 because i needed 7 for something and i could not acess that for a myriad of reasons. Anyway, i am on the grub rescue screen. I do not have a windows 7 disk (i downloaded it legally and i formatted it my idiot self) [14:20] Blueskaj:that takes me to a directory list on us.archive.ubuntu.com [14:20] well. arun007 that certainly doesn't tell us much [14:21] madmanonmeds, what does ? [14:21] I tried everything: sudo install mbr, syslinjx, boot-repair, etc [14:22] BluesKaj: the problem is I set dns on wired connection 1, when I rebbot connection becomes wired connection 2 and so on [14:22] !repositories | madmanonmeds [14:22] madmanonmeds: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. [14:24] arun007, try setting your dns in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf [14:25] Everytime I remove an application from my Computer I notice that free size is always larger then the installed size. Why? [14:25] I have a problem I have added an entry to the sudoers.d file and I messed it up, now I can't fix it because I can't use sudo or even login using 'sudo -i', here's the error http://paste.ubuntu.com/25319180/ [14:26] pankaj: That's because packages are highly compressed [14:26] arun007: OK [14:27] hi all, whether Kernel ASLR is safe? [14:29] WHat does it mean when somebody says that my destro of linux is built on other. Like, Linux-mint is built on ubuntu and ubuntu on Debian. Please correct me if something is wrong. [14:30] mzaza, can you login to vt/tty. and use nano to edit the file using sudo visudo [14:30] ubottu: that helped, [14:30] BluesKaj: I can't use the sudo command [14:31] BluesKaj: It is an AWS instance. [14:32] BluesKaj: What I have understood so far is that I will have to force shutdown my instance from my AWS dashboard, de-attach the volume, attach it to other instance, then login to that instance and fix the file. Is that the easiest way? [14:32] mzaza, I have no experience with aws [14:33] BluesKaj: But you have with Linux ;) No other way to fix that error from within shell? [14:34] you can try with su perhaps [14:35] or add your self back to the sudo group [14:35] adduser yourusername sudo [14:39] I try to add 'blacklist snd_hda_codec_hdmi' in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, but on next boot, the driver is installed. Would anyone have an idea why blacklisting of it fails? blacklisting other drivers there does work. [14:40] kraiskil, are you trying to block audio thru hdmi ? [14:41] BluesKaj: To add myself to the sudoers, I need to use sudo [14:42] BluesKaj, sort of :) Trying to work-around some PCI-MSI bug in a custom audio HW. I'm trying to find out which driver breaks it [14:43] BluesKaj, if I blacklist my own driver, and manually load it, everything works. But if I try to load it automatically, it borks. [14:43] *manually load it after boot, from console [14:45] kraiskil, snd-hda-intel ? [14:48] BluesKaj, I'll try that too. I got my device to work if I purge all of NVidia (binaryblob) drivers, so I suspect that card is the second culprit here. But I'm pretty baffeled atm... [14:50] that's the intel audio driver [14:51] kraiskil, sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel to see if there's any output [14:51] BluesKaj, yeah. Thanks for the tip - blacklisting that driver too, the _codec_hdmi is gone. Now my driver says 'device or resource busy'. But at least it don't crash :) [14:53] kraiskil,well which audio chip are you trying to use ? [14:53] and manually running 'modprobe snd_hda_intel', and my device works. [14:53] BluesKaj, http://www.fouraudio.com/de/produkte/dante-pcie-karte.html [14:53] so "custom" HW, custom kernel driver :| [14:57] kraiskil, that looks a lot like my m-audio audiophile 192 card..i just blacklisted snd-hda-audio in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, [14:57] trying that now [14:58] as root [14:58] well, with root permissions on 'buntu [15:00] hmm... not as simple as that === mustafa_ is now known as mzaza [15:04] depending on your uefi/bios , you can also try disabling the audio codec there, it refers to the onboard intel audio chip afaik [15:05] ah, that might help [15:06] hi there. if i want to upgrade from 16.10 > 17.04, is there anything i should after update [15:06] if i recalls things right, the repositories i had added manually were a mess after the last update [15:07] kraiskil, are you using pulse audio because I suspect the Danta card will need it for flash audio on websites [15:08] pulseaudio is not running on this box [15:10] my m-audio card required pulse for website flash audio due to alsa not connecting properly without it [15:10] yeah, this is a mess :) [15:11] the ICE1724 driver was lacking that feature [15:11] anyways, got it to work now, I think. First blacklisted the dante driver, then force-loaded it in /etc/rc.local [15:11] a bit of an ugly hack, but I think I'll drop the supplier a mail and leave the mopping up to them :p [15:13] did you remove the blacklist on the Dante? [15:13] I want this command "service php7.0-fpm reload" to run without prompeting for password. I tried this solution, "ubuntu ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/service" adding this to the visudo with no luck. [15:15] where did you add it mzaza, it's important that you add it just below the sudo line [15:15] err %sudo [15:16] bbl [15:17] BluesKaj, no, dante is [15:17] oh.. .nvm then :D [15:17] bruce549: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25319452/ [15:17] bruce549: WOPS :D [15:17] kraiskil: Can you help :D ? === kanupatar is now known as weston_w [15:21] Anyone? [15:23] All dead [15:23] IRC is turning to zombieland, and i'm the only survivor. [15:24] mzaza: if you run that line /usr/sbin/service php7.0-fpm reload by itself, does it run? [15:24] you know, on IRC is polite to wait more than a minute or two ☺ [15:25] pavlos: Yes, it just require authentication. Authentication is required to restart 'php7.0-fpm.service'. [15:25] Authenticating as: Ubuntu (ubuntu) [15:26] mzaza: try ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD:... [15:27] when I try to grow an NTFS partition with Gparted I get this error: Volume is full. To shrink it, delete unused files [15:27] mzaza: the command is ok, the entry in sudo is the last line (sudo executes top/bottom [15:27] what could be causing this? [15:30] himom: feels like it needs to do some copies to move files around perhaps, or write updated file table. are you really at 100%? and are you by any chance also rearranging partition order? [15:30] may be an order of operation issue [15:30] Hello. I just installed Zesty on a Dell Optiplex and can not get any sound out of headphones. Interestingly enough, they worked fine under Windows so I know that the jack is still operational. [15:30] nemo: I have only one partition on that drive and the rest is just unused space. I'm trying to grow that partition [15:31] himom: and is that partition totally full? such that things like fsck or other routine stuff would fail? [15:31] kraiskil, are you using this card for mixdowns from an audioboard [15:31] ? [15:31] nemo: oooh yes, it's almost full. So I need to free some space on it and that will fix the problem? [15:32] himom: that'd be my guess [15:32] himom: just delete some random temp junk [15:32] EriC^^: Still same problem. [15:32] pavlos: So You want me to add the line to the buttom file? [15:33]
