[00:00] need help [00:01] is anyone in here ? [00:01] nope. [00:01] no you're in a maze of twisty little passages [00:01] all alike. [00:01] ^ [00:21] hey [00:21] should I install virtualbox on ssd? [00:22] I want to install ubuntu [00:22] just for education purpose [00:33] What's the extend of your "education purpose?" [00:34] Extent* [00:40] hi can anyone help my set up a remote desktop using ssh? [00:40] I can't seem to figure it out [00:41] Grorco: might be able to, can you provide more details about what you are trying to achieve? (example: windows to windows, linux to linux, windows to linux, etc...) [00:42] do you mean how to use "rdesktop"? [00:42] is the reason you are using ssh because you need to create a tunnel for the connection [00:42] nmide, mint to mint [00:42] rdesktop crashes on me [00:42] I'm trying to remote to my raspberry pi [00:42] just use ssh -X [00:43] sprash, I am, but was looking for a visual desktop [00:44] ok, I haven't used mint - so...grain of salt, but essentially out of the box most linux systems dont support windows style remote desktop [00:44] you make client connections to an X "server" with applications [00:44] look up tightvncserver [00:44] if you want a visual display, ^ yes, something like VNC [00:44] cool! thanks guys :) [00:45] I don't mind cl but for somethings its just so much easier [00:45] having visual [00:45] Grorco: the mint support channel is at #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [00:46] hey ubuntu folks if I have a fairly major (to me) issue that came up, and I want to determine how to provide information to report a bug, where is a good place to start? [00:46] essentially the 4.13 kernels that were automatically installed, all break the x86_64 kvm kernel module in some way [00:47] break how [00:47] i had to go to the mainline page and manually download/install 4.8 kernel to get my VM running again [00:47] 4.8? what os are you running [00:47] well i'm not 100% sure but essentially the x86_64 dir is completely missing from kernel/arch in /lib/modules [00:47] !bug | nmide [00:48] nmide: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [00:48] ok [00:48] ok lsb_release says 17.10 "artful" [00:49] 17.10 _only_ has 4.13 kernel. you're doing it wrong by installing 4.8 [00:49] hello! [00:49] i agree, but this box hosts a VM for a 24/7 web game with hundreds of players [00:49] i need KVM to work [00:49] (it does now, with 4.8) [00:49] probably should be on LTS then, but you're still doing it horribly wrong [00:49] this is a classic scenario of a machine that's up for a long time, several newer kernels get installed without a reboot - and then when you reboot things brealk [00:50] but 17.10 only has 4.13, it never had anything else [00:50] could you help me please... [00:50] simple_user: not until you ask a question [00:50] ok, then unfortunately i can't provide which precise update led to the issue [00:50] that's too bad [00:50] so you decided to break things more, cool [00:50] i mean - this machine was probably dist-upgraded at some point, or do-release-upgrade, so there could have been older kernels on the system [00:51] again, i just needed it to work, it does now [00:51] I need to fix my boot; If I use commands: set root, linux /vmlinuz, initrd, boot [00:51] if that's what you want, go for it [00:51] it's not a bug though [00:51] no, what i want is to provide the info that anyone may need to prevent it from happening to other people [00:51] ok [00:51] I always boot in grub console and after that I can boot my linux [00:52] How can I fix it? [00:53] Anybody know why using copy/paste in a libvirt guest would crash xorg in the guest? (this only happens when apparmor is enabled on the host) [00:53] [00:53] ? [00:54] are you a developer? or just a helpful user here ben64? I want you to carefully think about how you responded to me here - i'm not looking to criticize anyone...if we boil things down, i'm saying "hey guys automatic updates broke KVM on my system, it won't run any guests and wont load the x64 version of the kernel module, i had to do some wonky stuff to get up and running again, but i'd rather fix things [00:55] right or report a bug if its a bug" and your response at its core is esentially "you broke things more, you are doing it wrong" [00:55] Who knows how to fix the boot scenario? [00:55] simple_user: Have you tried the simple thing while booted ' sudo update-grub ' ? See if the initramfs gets re-written . [00:55] yes, I have an error: stage1 not read correct [00:56] i'm not an idiot, i double checked that vt-x was still turned on in bios, i double checked a ton of other settings, i was at wit's end before installing the older packages, that wasn't my "goto" solution [00:56] Bashing-om: but grub console grub> always boot and I can boot kernel from it... [00:57] simple_user: K; that then implies to purge and re-install grub . Is this a EFI system, or are you booting MBR ? [00:57] MBR [00:58] set root=(hd1,msdos1); linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sdb1; initrd /initrd.img; boot [00:58] works fine [00:59] simple_user: Have you a liveDVD(USB) on hand? And we can try a simple re-install of grub . [00:59] yes, I have [00:59] What should I do? [00:59] nmide: you don't even know if that broke it [01:00] and you're happy with your kludge so i don't see the problem [01:00] Hi. I had installed Ubuntu 16.0 on uefi on ssd. Worked fine. Today swapped ssd to a new hd to install Windows. On swapping back ssd it says Bootable media not found. How do I repair Efi using live 16.04? [01:00] the machine is a kvm host and an edge router that does nothing but host 1 vm and route IP traffic, your argument is technically correct but not accurate for the purposes of this conversation [01:00] i do know that the updates broke it, and i changed nothing but the version of the kernel installed to "fix" it [01:00] you don't know, you said you don't know [01:01] dude, i dont care - my interest here is prevent other people from experiencing the same thing, nothing you've said so far is helpful in the slightest [01:01] simple_user: pastebin ' sudo fdisk -lu ' so I know the partitoning and I provide the simple re-install from a live environment . [01:01] the old adage "if you can't say anything nice" applies [01:01] and you kept saying how you need it working and it works now, doesn't seem like you actually want to fix it for real [01:01] or maybe "if you can't say anything useful" would be better [01:05] Bashing-om: How I can add this IRC to another program, since I need to boot on live usb [01:07] simple_user: Unable to advise in that respect . never done it myself . [01:07] ok [01:07] like you found this ? [01:08]

I've just boot from live usb === ilfantomas_ is now known as ilfantomas [01:10] ready! What should I do? [01:10] simple_user__: Great . pastebin ' sudo fdisk -lu ' . And we see what we can do :) [01:15] j [01:17] simple_user__: Your ubuntu is on the second hard drive, what is set in bios for the boot priority ? [01:18] sda, sdb [01:18] I use custom bootloader and I can select boot device [01:19] simple_user__: And when you select sdb as the booting drive, what results ? Do we really need to re-install grub to sdb ? [01:20] I think no, When I boot from sdb alway opened grub> [01:20] I think something happend with grub config [01:21] when I entered to grub> I can boot my system [01:22] anyone who can help me? [01:23] Can I fix this issue? [01:23] simple_user__, whats the custom grub [01:24] the custom bootloader is not grub [01:24] osl2000 [01:24] it called [01:24] simple_user__, so use the ubuntu grub [01:25] I can rewrite the bootloader, but I can load my system from grub console, so why I can add this commands to config [01:25] ? [01:25] simple_user__: K' run from the liveUSB ' sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt ; sudo grub-install /dev/sdb --boot-directory=/mnt ; sudo umount /mnt ' . Reboot into the install and from the install run ' sudo update-grub ' . all good now ? [01:27] simple_user__: osl2000 is not supported here in ubuntu; If you want to use osl2000 please join ##linux, see what we can do there . [01:30] grub-install /dev/sdb --boot-directory=/mnt [01:30] Unrecognized option [01:31] --boot-directory=/mnt [01:31] mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt [01:31] all ok [01:33] root-directory :) [01:33] if use root-directory [01:34] the file /mnt/boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly [01:36] Bashing-om? [01:36] simple_user__: Ouch .. as this is non-standated try as ' sudo grub-install /dev/sdb --root-directory=/mnt ' . where it is root vice boot . [01:37] I've just run this [01:38] the file /mnt/boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly [01:39] simple_user__: Well, maybe we can purge grub .. and re-install from a full change root environment . [01:39] how to do it? [01:40] simple_user__: What kernel version are you running ' uname -r ' ? === ilfantomas_ is now known as ilfantomas [02:18] hi [02:20] i can't install Ubuntu Server via UEFI, everytime i get the message "grub-install dummy failed". this is on a 500MB empty ESP.

I've changed no settings other than apt-get update && upgrade. I'm unable to connect to Plex server either (ubuntu). When I ping my router on ubuntu I get "ping: sendmsg: operation not permitted". The internet works, the laptop is the correct ip address. I can vnc in right when ubuntu [06:00] boots up for about 10 seconds then the connection gets cut. I'm assuming there is a service or firewall setting that is blocking it. Any ideas? [06:00] Even with ubuntu disconnected from the vpn it doesn't work [06:01] I actually can't ping any device on my network [06:01] cmd [06:05] Nevermind, somehow my iptables got corrupted?

[09:30] i wouldn't think so [09:30] what is the best for this cpu [09:31] beerstein: what [09:31] what is the best ubuntu for this cpu [09:32] this cpu is = a i3 intel [09:33] beerstein: the lightest ubuntu is lubuntu [09:33] and xubuntu? [09:34] is xubuntu light too?

[09:40] 4 gb vram [09:41] beerstein, up til now, had you been using the gnome ubuntu or something else [09:41] sadako: i'd say stick with 16.04 [09:41] no i was using ubuntu 16.04 but i dint like it [09:41] sadako: unless you are desparate for newer versions of certain apps then 16.04 should be fine until 18.04.1 comes out [09:42] Hey [09:42] so i install ubuntu gnome 16.04 [09:42] beerstein, you can try lubuntu and xubuntu by installing the packages lubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop [09:42] ok tthanks for you time [09:42] I am getting a wrong fs type, bad option, superblock on /dev/sda1 [09:42] welcome [09:50] GodOfSea: and how/when did that happen?

(total 4tb) images were important [09:52] i checked fsck -N /dev/sda1 [09:52] I don't know what basicley is and I'm not using digital ocean. What did fsck reply? [09:52] it says fsck.ext4 /dev/sda1 [09:53] i wanted to pkill basicley it didnt work . so I restarted it. after restart everything is gone [09:54] try fsck -f /dev/sda1 [09:54] !info basicley [09:54] Package basicley does not exist in artful [09:55] This isn't an Ubuntu package, so it's not supported here [09:55] I don't know if anyone knows about it [09:55] Does fsck report any errors? [09:55] (fsck -f) [09:55] basicley is not the problem here. [09:56] btw fsck -f is checking inodes block and sizes [09:56] If something affects initramfs, it may be a problem. If not, possibly not. [09:56] ...or the disk in general [09:56] recovering the images are my priority [09:57] alkisg is fsck -f supposed to take a while ? [09:57] So did fsck find any errors?

[10:31] blackflow, it is open source mongodb edition installed on ubuntu 14.04 installed from source binary/tarball [10:33] indistylo: you should use either the mongodb package in Ubuntu Universe repo, or use official mongo ubuntu repos: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/#packages [10:34] otherwise you're on your own and have to figure out how to configure it properly to run.

[11:15] hans__: maybe there is some extra services running in background [11:18] oh yeah, probably unattended upgrades, the server installer offered it, but i think the netinst didnt [11:37] Hi [11:38] How to change background on unity? After switch to unity from gnome I can't do it in system setting [11:38] I do but change nothing [11:42] gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.background active true [11:42] helped [12:14] come to think of it, having unattended-upgrades a daemon is a waste of ram, it should just be a cronjob [12:16] hans__: who said it was a daemon? [12:16] It's not running except when needed [12:19] alkisg, well, a clean ubuntu 16.04 from netinst use 76MB ram, installing the same from server installer use 99MB ram, so i wondered where the heck my 23 megabytes of ram went, then i remembered the server installer asked "do you want automatic security upgrades?", but the netinst didn't ask that, otherwise, as far as i could see, the installations were identical, so i thought it must be unattended-upgrades using the 23MB ram [12:19] hans__: ps aux|grep apt [12:19] If apt is not running, then unattended isn't running either [12:19] It only runs on boot and on cron [12:20] If you want to see where the difference is, use ps [12:20] unfortunately i dont have clean systems to test with now [12:20] It doesn't need to be clean to see the output of ps [12:20] but perhaps ill dig deeper next time [12:20] To see if apt is running etc [12:20] apt update is called by cron [12:21] If there are security updates, then apt calls unattended [12:21] hi [12:22] Hello [12:23] alkisg, got it, still, i don't have any systems to test with now, ill have to do it later (apt is not running now, but that's useless info at this point) [12:24] i don't have a netinst system to compare with [12:24] Hiyas all [12:31] hi [12:44] I have booted with Ubuntu-17.10 on a flash drive, and tried to install it twice.

[13:03] Ah, ok, I thought you were trying to install to sda [13:03] alkisg: I has Arch installed right now; before that it had Gentoo [13:03] alkisg: no [13:03] I know how to fix the RAID array that the Ubuntu installer messed up, also. [13:04] I was wanting to know if this message I posted is a known bug, or just the automated installed can't handle it? [13:05] mingdao: what message? [13:07] Hi all at install it asks me to "Install third-part software for graphic periferics and wi-fi, flash, mp3 and other formats". Have i to select it or not? [13:07] "The 'grub-efi-amd-signed' package failed to install into /target/. Without the GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot." [13:08] jk^: I've not installed Ubuntu except once last year, but for the initial install you can check or uncheck that box. [13:08] jk^: You may or may not require software from 3rd-party sources, but you will be told later when you install a package requiring it [13:09] jk^: Afaik this is just a convenience, which will download some more software whilst the installer is working in the background. [13:09] jk^: yeah choose install [13:09] mingdao: does grub support xfs? [13:09] what's your /boot partition? there's a 263mb without a filesystem in your output [13:09] EriC^^: I am not installing grub to a XFS partition, so that point is moot. [13:09] EriC^^: /dev/sdg1 in the blkid output [13:09] /dev/sdg1: LABEL="ESP" UUID="D22C-B0A5" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="EFI System Partition" PARTUUID="abcaae2c-aec4-407b-9048-606b90c17241" [13:10] mingdao: 1) less attitude 2) that's just the grub that's loaded by the uefi, not the actual grub [13:11] where is /boot/grub ? [13:14] * mingdao facepalms [13:20] good news here https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/blog/2018/01/private-internet-access-creator-london-trust-media-acquires-linux-journal/ [13:23] BluesKaj: why is that good news?
