| michael2 | so if `apt-get dist-upgrade` was used instead of `apt-get upgrade` then the mariadb upgrade would actually happen automatically? | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| zomaar_ | yes | 00:01 |
| zomaar_ | Some high level features of mysql might not instantly work in mariadb so they don't want to risk disrupting some installation | 00:03 |
| lucas-arg | any good software like pspp for data analysis?? | 00:03 |
| michael2 | are the packages somehow tagged (say in the control file in the .deb archive). to state "dont upgrade me non-interactively" and thats how apt/dpkg differentiate between them? | 00:03 |
| zomaar_ | nacc has the answer to that | 00:03 |
| zomaar_ | But I am pretty sure the answer is yes | 00:04 |
| zomaar_ | dpkg doesn't know it though | 00:05 |
| michael2 | it would be good to know, as you could potentially do a `apt list --upgradeable` to see what will be upgraded, then if you could distinguish those packages before runnig the upgrades - that would be helpful | 00:05 |
| zomaar_ | Oh I might be wrong | 00:08 |
| zomaar_ | But anyway | 00:09 |
| zomaar_ | It's about new dependencies | 00:09 |
| zomaar_ | If a package has new dependencies, it is held back | 00:09 |
| zomaar_ | So kernels come in new packages | 00:11 |
| zomaar_ | The linux-generic package is upgraded and gets a new dependency on the new kernel package | 00:11 |
| michael2 | why would new dependencies be considered risky? | 00:11 |
| zomaar_ | Maybe just for this purpose | 00:12 |
| zomaar_ | mysql is also upgraded in this way | 00:12 |
| zomaar_ | When you upgrade mysql-common, it actually installs mariadb | 00:12 |
| zomaar_ | So this is how they change subsystems around | 00:13 |
| zomaar_ | They upgrade a package that already exists | 00:13 |
| michael2 | where mariadb is a new dependency? | 00:13 |
| zomaar_ | And this new version has different dependencies | 00:13 |
| zomaar_ | Yes | 00:13 |
| zomaar_ | And it also removes stuff | 00:14 |
| salamanderrake | did a 'sudo apt-get install lldb-5.0' which is from clangs apt repo, and its having conflicts with python-lldb-4.0 'trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/lldb', which is also in package python-lldb-4.0 1:4.0-1ubuntu1' | 00:14 |
| zomaar_ | salamanderrake: If you want to easily solve it you can dpkg-divert the one you don't want | 00:15 |
| salamanderrake | I tried fixing it by removing the *lldb-4.0* packages, but it won't get past lldb-5.0 even though its not installed. | 00:15 |
| salamanderrake | ak ok | 00:15 |
| zomaar_ | But you may need to repeat this a couple of times | 00:15 |
| michael2 | packages will regularly specify new _versions_ of dependencies - but that doesn't count as a new dependency, its only if its a completely different package the the parent package previously didnt need? | 00:15 |
| zomaar_ | yes\ | 00:15 |
| salamanderrake | zomaar_: do I need to specifgy the deb file? | 00:16 |
| zomaar_ | salamanderrake: but lidb is supposed to be a directory | 00:17 |
| zomaar_ | salamanderrake: No this works for individual files | 00:17 |
| zomaar_ | salamanderrake: Oh | 00:17 |
| salamanderrake | it is a folder | 00:17 |
| zomaar_ | salamanderrake: You can fix that by running sudo apt-get -f install | 00:17 |
| zomaar_ | Or dpkg --configure -a | 00:18 |
| zomaar_ | apt-get -f install will probably remove something | 00:18 |
| salamanderrake | nope, just failed. | 00:18 |
| zomaar_ | then run dpkg --configure -a first | 00:18 |
| salamanderrake | nope either. | 00:19 |
| zomaar_ | Then you need to show some logs | 00:19 |
| salamanderrake | https://gist.github.com/salamanderrake/904a1d552a41daa872be1bdc721db68f | 00:19 |
| zomaar_ | dpkg also as sudo | 00:20 |
| salamanderrake | yes, first time was a mistake | 00:20 |
| zomaar_ | but what is output the second time | 00:20 |
| salamanderrake | its part of the log | 00:21 |
| zomaar_ | Oh | 00:21 |
| salamanderrake | give me a sec | 00:21 |
| salamanderrake | I updated the gist | 00:21 |
| zomaar_ | But you can't remove the 5 version? | 00:22 |
| salamanderrake | Its not installed | 00:22 |
| salamanderrake | That is the one I tried to install | 00:22 |
| zomaar_ | Did you run the apt remove command? | 00:23 |
| salamanderrake | hold on | 00:23 |
| salamanderrake | sudo apt-get remove python-lldb-4.0 lldb-4.0 lldb liblldb-4.0 liblldb-4.0-dev codelite lldb-5.0 liblldb-5.0-dev did it | 00:23 |
| zomaar_ | no no no\ | 00:23 |
| zomaar_ | the 5 | 00:24 |
| zomaar_ | oh ok | 00:24 |
| salamanderrake | Ok, working now | 00:24 |
| zomaar_ | right | 00:24 |
| zomaar_ | good | 00:24 |
| salamanderrake | lldb-5.0 is installed. | 00:24 |
| zomaar_ | when you install and it fails, it leaves the package in an unconfigured state | 00:25 |
| zomaar_ | but it is still installed | 00:25 |
| salamanderrake | yeah | 00:25 |
| zomaar_ | or something of the kind | 00:25 |
| salamanderrake | thanks for pointing that out. | 00:25 |
| zomaar_ | or not installed but broken | 00:25 |

| jeffmr | Can it be invoked at the command line? | 01:25 |
| pauljw | jeffmr, maybe you can go into settings > keyboard > shortcuts(?) and see if it's assigned to the superkey and edit it so it is assigned to an unused key combo on your keyboard? | 01:29 |

We will address CVE-2017-5715 and CVE-2017-5753 (aka Spectre or Variant 1 & 2) in a subsequent round. We will also address additional architectures in subsequent rounds." | 02:32 |
| frostschutz | cjs226, fixes depend on upstream too, so doing more rounds doesn't really help, the dust has yet to settle ;) | 02:43 |
| cjs226 | frostschutz, so we don't know when the spectre fix will be ready then, right? i'm just trying to determine if i should push forward patching my environment or if i should wait a day or so | 02:44 |
| oerheks | cjs226, patched kernels are out, AFAIK | 02:45 |
| oerheks | !kpti | 02:46 |
| ubottu | Meltdown is a security issue with (primarily) Intel processors. It's mitigated by kernel patches named KPTI. Ubuntu released them in security updates for 14.04, 16.04, and 17.10. 17.04 will not receive this update. 18.04 will ship with kernel 4.15, which is patched already. 16.04 has updates for Linux 4.4 (release) and 4.13 (HWE), installs with 4.10 should upgrade to 4.13. See also !spectre, !nopti | 02:46 |
| frostschutz | cjs226, if you're not a high risk target (like - you host vm or give shells to random people on the internet) - you should be fine with regular updates as it were and not worry too much about it (compared to people who are still running windows 95) | 02:46 |
| cjs226 | oerheks, from the link i provided above, it doesn't appear the fixes are ready for spectre yet | 02:47 |

| AxiomaUY | no hole...i mean full devie hdd | 03:29 |
| AxiomaUY | jajaja | 03:29 |
| AxiomaUY | sorry | 03:29 |
| KingParrot | That is instresting I have not had much exsperance tampering with such things. | 03:29 |
| als1 | Akame, are you here? | 03:29 |
| KingParrot | I do understand the linux file system. | 03:29 |
| glassresistor | also is trusty patched yet? | 03:30 |
| KingParrot | I currently have 5 Distros on this HD all working fine. Gparted is awusum. | 03:30 |
| AxiomaUY | yes i know KingParrot | 03:30 |
| AxiomaUY | i use Gparted in every installation i make...buy | 03:31 |
| AxiomaUY | but* | 03:31 |
| AxiomaUY | this one, the last...I did not anticipate that I would need more space than I assigned when I installed | 03:32 |
| KingParrot | I mostly use it to wipe the drive but when setting up instalation I just use what is availble with that distro | 03:32 |
| AxiomaUY | ¬_¬ wike is my last resourse... | 03:33 |
| AxiomaUY | wipe* | 03:33 |
| AxiomaUY | i have some apps and configurations thats i don't want to do again | 03:33 |
| AxiomaUY | jajaja | 03:33 |
| KingParrot | I recently distoryed ubuntuMATE. | 03:34 |
| Bashing-om | AxiomaUY: Agreed that 9,8G is way to small of a partition for an operating system . Show us ' sudo fdisk -lu ' in a pastebin . | 03:34 |
| KingParrot | It was very intresting first time I ever killed a Linux distro | 03:34 |
| AxiomaUY | for me wipe now is not an option | 03:34 |
| AxiomaUY | sure Bashing-on | 03:35 |
| AxiomaUY | sure Bashing-om | 03:35 |
| KingParrot | seems like most Linux distro sorta need around 12 GB min. | 03:35 |
| KingParrot | Depends on what a person is going to do with it though. | 03:35 |
| Henstepl | having trouble using my VPN I just bought in 17.10 | 03:35 |
| Bashing-om | KingParrot: I see often 30 gigs . | 03:35 |
| AxiomaUY | here is https://pastebin.com/UL846Ypp | 03:36 |
| KingParrot | I have deliebritly made 2 distroes at 45 GB each for testing out VirtualBox | 03:36 |
| AxiomaUY | mmm i'm dealing with 10 Gigs only for FontEnd develop... | 03:36 |
| AxiomaUY | no common user files... | 03:37 |
| AxiomaUY | like images or music | 03:37 |
| Bashing-om | AxiomaUY: Think'n .. what is " WinRE NTFS oculto " ? .. A recovery partition that you can copy off and then re-use that partition ? | 03:39 |
| Henstepl | how do I do a VPN in 17.10 via GUI | 03:39 |
| AxiomaUY | let me see Bashing-om | 03:40 |
| AxiomaUY | jaja USB DataTraveler conected | 03:40 |
| AxiomaUY | jajaja my bad | 03:40 |
| Henstepl | i feel like if i do VPN from GUI i just have to have a terminal open at all times and that bothers me | 03:41 |
| AxiomaUY | with some virus or malware or some thing like... | 03:41 |
| KingParrot | I have one distro currently installed on 13 GB | 03:41 |
| AxiomaUY | KingParrot are you the KingOfDistros maybe? jajaja | 03:42 |
| KingParrot | King of Distros? | 03:42 |
| KingParrot | I perform test. | 03:43 |
| AxiomaUY | its a joke | 03:43 |
| KingParrot | I have over 25 Distros that had some sort of issue that I could not use on this Lap top. | 03:43 |
| KingParrot | What good is a Distro if it will not install or will not work. | 03:44 |
| AxiomaUY | Bashing-om "450M WinRE NTFS oculto" is not a USB conected...may be is some MBR partition or something... | 03:44 |
| xw | 123 | 03:45 |
| KingParrot | is he running it on a Raspbarry pie or something most use ext4 the root install. | 03:45 |
| AxiomaUY | KingParrot, i don't test distros, i use it and its all... | 03:45 |
| xw | hello | 03:45 |
| Bashing-om | AxiomaUY: That is a partiton - sda3 - Now if it is a recovery partition for windows . then it is possible to copy it off to DVD and use that partitipn to expand sda4 that holds the linux system . | 03:45 |
| xw | anyone else? | 03:46 |
| KingParrot | hello xw | 03:46 |

| KingParrot | I attempted to delete a distro out of multie boot set up and killed all the OS on that drive | 03:47 |
| KingParrot | and an other time I attempted to over wright one of the OS and that also killed all the distros on that drive. | 03:48 |
| Bashing-om | AxiomaUY: Ouch .. good point . Will also have to then mess with sda2 .. to get the room to expand . Oh boy . Will take someone experienced with Windows to guide further . | 03:48 |

| AxiomaUY | ok Bashing-om | 03:49 |
| EriC^^ | AxiomaUY: where do you want to get the free space from? /dev/sda2 100gb? | 03:50 |
| AxiomaUY | Bashing-om Thank you very much for your time and your suggestions, it was very helpful anyway | 03:50 |
| Bashing-om | AxiomaUY: In oefer to grow a partition, one has to have unallocated space adjacent to the partiotion to be grown . on your case that is resizing 2 NTFS partitions . | 03:51 |
| KingParrot | Anyone here ever use python3-tk? | 03:51 |

| AxiomaUY | yep EriC^^ | 03:53 |
| === precise|snek is now known as crypticone | ||
| EriC^^ | AxiomaUY: you'll need to put it on a separate partition, like having a separate /home | 03:54 |
| xw | resize2fs /dev/sda2 5G | 03:54 |
| AxiomaUY | but I start to think that it will not be possible to achieve it | 03:54 |
| AxiomaUY | I do not know how to do that ... it is possible to do it with Gparted EriC^^ | 03:55 |
| AxiomaUY | ? | 03:55 |
| KingParrot | python3-tk I have never used it | 03:55 |
| KingParrot | sda8 | 03:55 |
| EriC^^ | AxiomaUY: yeah, first you need to shrink the filesystem and partition, then with the unallocated space create a ext4 partition and move your /home to it and edit fstab | 03:56 |
| EriC^^ | !homepartitiong | AxiomaUY | 03:56 |
| EriC^^ | !homepartition | AxiomaUY | 03:56 |

| AxiomaUY | wow move the home directory looks like a database migration...sound dangerous... | 03:59 |
| EriC^^ | AxiomaUY: it's incredibly simple | 04:00 |
| AxiomaUY | really? | 04:00 |
| KingParrot | It is dangours but mostly if u have vital data on it. | 04:00 |
| EriC^^ | you just move the files, and tell fstab to mount that partition under /home (using its uuid) | 04:00 |
| KingParrot | but if you have some distros ready for a live boot off a usb to install it's not a big deal. | 04:01 |
| AxiomaUY | i have teamviewer if you want to do it for me... | 04:01 |
| KingParrot | Just make sure u have your vital data on something other then the PC u are working on. | 04:02 |
| EriC^^ | AxiomaUY: i'll guide you through it | 04:02 |
| AxiomaUY | ok | 04:02 |
| EriC^^ | AxiomaUY: did you shrink the /dev/sdb2 yet? | 04:02 |
| AxiomaUY | nop | 04:02 |
| AxiomaUY | how i do it... | 04:02 |
| EriC^^ | ok, open gparted and shrink it from there | 04:02 |
| AxiomaUY | ok | 04:03 |
| AxiomaUY | with de GUI or with the terminal? | 04:05 |

| AxiomaUY | gparted ya está en su versión más reciente (0.25.0-1). means... gparted is currently installed in your most resent version | 04:18 |
| AxiomaUY | i have installed linux in Spanish | 04:18 |
| EriC^^ | AxiomaUY: try 'ls -l /usr/sbin/gparted' | 04:18 |
| AxiomaUY | the file or directory not exist | 04:19 |
| KingParrot | I have gparted 0.25.0 and also the one binanary packaged needed for it to work on file. | 04:20 |
| AxiomaUY | it's very weird ... I have a disk utility, but it allows me to see details not apply modifications | 04:21 |
| KingParrot | So even if I have not any access to any internet depending on the Distro I can still install Gparted. | 04:21 |
| KingParrot | I should track down a rpm of Gparted also. | 04:21 |
| EriC^^ | AxiomaUY: maybe the filesystem is mounted read-only | 04:21 |

| Bromskloss | What drive does Ubuntu install on in the standard installation procedure? Do I get to choose, or even see, that without doing manual partitioning? | 04:58 |
| KingParrot | sda1 sda2 and sda3 for most Distros are the main file mounts | 05:00 |
| EriC^^ | Bromskloss: no you don't you have to choose manual partitioning i believe | 05:01 |
| KingParrot | Brom are u doing a clean install? | 05:01 |
| Bromskloss | KingParrot, EriC^^: I | 05:01 |
| KingParrot | I use manual everytime | 05:01 |
| KingParrot | I do custum installation each and every time I do a distro install. | 05:02 |
| Bromskloss | KingParrot, EriC^^: I'm installing onto an SD card (and want to make sure I don't overwrite any other drive). All I want to choose is the drive, but otherwise let Ubuntu make its default choices. | 05:02 |
| KingParrot | many people only put one distro on a HD but I very seldom do. | 05:02 |
| Ben64 | Bromskloss: unplug every other drive to make sure | 05:03 |
| KingParrot | if u can disonconect all other drives this is a sure fire way to ensure you don't tamper with them. | 05:03 |
| Bromskloss | Ben64: It's a borrowed laptop, I'm afraid. I can't mess with it. | 05:03 |
| KingParrot | yes I just said what Ben said | 05:03 |
| KingParrot | Disconect is the safest sure fire way to make sure you dn't mess up other drives or devices. | 05:04 |
| KingParrot | I did a install once long ago to a PC and for gotten to unplug the external hard drive. | 05:05 |
| Bromskloss | KingParrot: OK. I was hoping that there would be a drop-down list of drives that I got to choose from during the installation. | 05:05 |
| Ben64 | there is | 05:05 |
| Bromskloss | Ben64: Without doing manual partitioning? | 05:05 |
| KingParrot | I wiped the entire external hard drive because I was stupid and for gotten to unplug it. | 05:05 |
| Ben64 | Bromskloss: just do manual partitioning, you'll have better results | 05:05 |
| KingParrot | Ben to do custum installations I think u need a tool like Gparted for drive selection. | 05:06 |
| KingParrot | yes Ben is right once again. | 05:06 |
| Ben64 | the live usb comes with everything necessary | 05:06 |
| Bromskloss | Ben64: All right. I'll do it. I have 16 GB on the SD card and 8 GB memory in the computer. I'm guessing that I shouldn't bother with a swap partition or a swap file, right? | 05:07 |
| KingParrot | if u select manual then you can directly see what you are installing to what partion on what drive. | 05:07 |
| Ben64 | Bromskloss: i wouldn't for an sd card, but then again i wouldn't install ubuntu on sd card anyway | 05:07 |
| KingParrot | do about 8 GB of swap if u can. | 05:08 |
| KingParrot | It is best to have swap on the same drive as your ext4 root install. | 05:08 |

| Bromskloss | Ben64: Can I get full-disk encryption also when doing the partitioning manually? | 05:13 |
| lotuspsychje | KingParrot: you want ubuntu on your phone? | 05:13 |
| Ben64 | Bromskloss: idk, i never use encryption because it's pointless | 05:14 |
| Bromskloss | Ben64: Oh, why is it pointless? | 05:14 |
| Ben64 | because either nobody cares about your data, or they do and will bash you with a wrench until they get it | 05:15 |
| lotuspsychje | Bromskloss: i also agree with Ben64 if you have sensitive data, store it external and burry in the ground somewhere, not connected to the net | 05:16 |
| lotuspsychje | KingParrot: there is now #ubports for phones, but they havent added iphones yet | 05:17 |
| Bromskloss | Ben64, lotuspsychje: What I have in mind is if the computer gets stolen or I discard the drive. It feels good not to have to worry that any of my stuff will be readable on it. | 05:17 |
| lotuspsychje | Bromskloss: i think thats what Ben64 just meant, they will wrench your data until they get it, even encrypted | 05:18 |
| lotuspsychje | Bromskloss: if you dont like someone getting your data afterwards, perhaps a script to zero your drive full? | 05:19 |

| KingParrot | oh just use Gpared on a HD just formant it a few times useing diffrent types of formats and it will be dead. | 05:20 |
| Bromskloss | Anyway, I settled for the home-directory encryption that the installation procedure nevertheless offered. | 05:21 |
| KingParrot | if you formate a entire drive in ext4 it takes takes longer to formate a drive like that | 05:21 |
| KingParrot | Brom make sure to set up an other user account | 05:22 |
| KingParrot | If u do online stuff never do it logged into as a sudo account. | 05:23 |
| KingParrot | I very seldom go online with a sudo account. | 05:24 |
| lotuspsychje | KingParrot: keep it ontopic please | 05:24 |

| KingParrot | Is it possible to run a web brower such as firefox on a unbuntu server? | 05:29 |
| lotuspsychje | KingParrot: yes | 05:30 |
| KingParrot | I could be wrong but I think a person needs some form of GUI like a desktop emvierment do they not? | 05:30 |
| lotuspsychje | KingParrot: correct | 05:30 |
| KingParrot | I installed firefox on ubuntu 16.04 server but because I have not way to cut and paste I did not bother to take note of all the binary packages it called for. | 05:32 |
| lotuspsychje | KingParrot: you need to install a GUI desktop enviroment to run things graphicly | 05:32 |

| yorwos | wondering on meltdown and spectre bugs on intel cpus , will the hotfix in ubuntu be permanent or will we have the option to turn it off at times (eg.rendering or something) ? | 07:27 |
| === pal_ is now known as pally | ||
| alkisg | !kpti | 07:31 |
| ubottu | Meltdown is a security issue with (primarily) Intel processors. It's mitigated by kernel patches named KPTI. Ubuntu released them in security updates for 14.04, 16.04, and 17.10. 17.04 will not receive this update. 18.04 will ship with kernel 4.15, which is patched already. 16.04 has updates for Linux 4.4 (release) and 4.13 (HWE), installs with 4.10 should upgrade to 4.13. See also !spectre, !nopti | 07:31 |
| alkisg | !nopti | 07:31 |
| ubottu | KPTI is a mitigation for the !Meltdown security issue. With some workloads on some processors, KPTI has a significant performance impact. KPTI can be disabled by adding "nopti" to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line in /etc/default/grub. This should only be done if absolutely necessary because it will disable protections against Meltdown and thus allow any malicious user process to read memory and probably escalate to root. | 07:31 |

| iNeedHealing | hey guys | 07:53 |
| iNeedHealing | I can't access port 7005 for some reason even though I allowed it in firewall | 07:53 |
| iNeedHealing | any idea why ?? | 07:53 |
| iNeedHealing | it's a web server on port 7005 | 07:53 |
| === bs_ is now known as bs | ||
| iNeedHealing | so I just done `sudo ufw allow 7005/tcp` | 07:54 |
| hateball | iNeedHealing: And you are trying to access this how? | 07:54 |
| iNeedHealing | `git push` | 07:54 |
| iNeedHealing | `git remote add origin http://myServer.tld:7005/repoName && git push origin master` | 07:55 |
| geirha | what does nc -zv myServer.tld 7005 say? | 07:56 |
| Low-N-Slow | Yay irc install worked | 07:57 |
| iNeedHealing | takes a while | 07:57 |
| iNeedHealing | gratss Low | 07:57 |
| geirha | so it's not immediately dropped | 07:57 |
| iNeedHealing | it's still busy so no | 07:58 |
| iNeedHealing | it times out | 07:58 |
| Low-N-Slow | I put HexChat on my ubuntu VM, is that a pretty good client? | 07:58 |
| iNeedHealing | HexChat isn't updated much iirc | 07:59 |
| iNeedHealing | or was that xchat .. :/ | 07:59 |
| iNeedHealing | I'm using a discord bot nowadays for my IRC so .. | 07:59 |

| iNeedHealing | nc: connect to myServer.tld port 7005 (tcp) failed: Connection timed out | 08:02 |
| iNeedHealing | I can connect to port 22 just fine | 08:04 |
| Low-N-Slow | sounds like a firewall blocking you | 08:05 |
| geirha | and the web server is listening on 0.0.0.0 or the right device? sudo ss -nltp | 08:05 |
| Low-N-Slow | or software not listening on that port | 08:06 |
| iNeedHealing | doesn't say what it's listening on | 08:07 |
| geirha | just *:7005? then it's listening on all interfaces | 08:07 |
| iNeedHealing | I assume it's this | 08:07 |
| iNeedHealing | LISTEN 0 128 :::7005 :::* | 08:07 |
| Low-N-Slow | ah ubuntu security updates completed... reboot required? really? | 08:07 |
| geirha | Low-N-Slow: for kernel updates, yes | 08:08 |
| iNeedHealing | yes | 08:08 |
| iNeedHealing | probably updated kernel stuff | 08:08 |

| za1b1tsu | Hello, I can't connect to my wifi https://paste.ubuntu.com/26365066/ | 09:32 |
| za1b1tsu | I can connect to my wifi using my win laptop and my android phone, so the wifi is ok | 09:32 |
| za1b1tsu | I could connect to my wifi yesterday and today morning with my ubuntu, but suddenly it refuses ti I tried NetworkManager.conf fix for random Mac, but no results | 09:33 |
| tatertots | za1b1tsu: have you connected a ethernet cable and "temporarily" hardwired the computer to the network? yes or no | 09:47 |
| za1b1tsu | Yes. When my connection did not work for my first time, I connected my phone to the wifi and then connected the phone to the laptop to access the Wifi | 09:51 |
| za1b1tsu | tatertots: Yes, with my phone to the laptop | 09:52 |
| za1b1tsu | it showed as a ethernet connection | 09:53 |
| msanchez | Hi there, sorry if this is not be the right channel to report things, but I have a quick question I hope someone here will be able to answer | 09:59 |
| msanchez | for bugs strictly related to packaging (of chromium-browser in this case) is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+filebug the right place to file them? | 10:00 |
| * msanchez realizes it sounds like a dumb question, still would like to confirm | 10:00 | |
| someone_ | Hi , I have installed Ubuntu on a flash memory but I don't know why it does not boot , there is an error how I can fix it without reinstall ubuntu again on the flash memory | 10:01 |
| bazhang | someone_, installed using what tool or method | 10:02 |
| someone_ | bazhang I installed it on a usb flash memory by using another flash memory. | 10:04 |
| bazhang | someone_, you just dragged the iso from one to another? | 10:04 |
| alkisg | msanchez: if you know who wrote that part of the code (e.g. debian), file it there. If you don't know, use the ubuntu launchpad page, yeah | 10:04 |
| ayabidi | test | 10:05 |
| someone_ | bazhang No , I installed in normal way as when install on hard disk , I restart computer and boot use usb flash memory and installed Ubuntu on another flash memory. | 10:07 |
| Trippz | hello ! someone can help me to configure an archive HD (ntfs) to be writeable? | 10:08 |
| bazhang | someone_, you haven't told us yet what the 'normal' way is, using what tool or method | 10:08 |
| tomeaton17 | Apparently the fix for 17.10 was meant to come today but I cant see anything on the website :( | 10:08 |
| Trippz | please because is very urgent! | 10:08 |
| === ayabidi_ is now known as Aymen | ||
| Trippz | someone can read me? | 10:10 |
| bazhang | Trippz, how is this ubuntu related | 10:10 |
| Trippz | why? | 10:10 |
| bazhang | Trippz, ntfs is a windows fs | 10:10 |
| someone_ | bazhang there is no any tool , I used unetbootin to burning ubuntu on a flash memory then I used this flash memory to install ubuntu on another flash memory. | 10:11 |
| Trippz | i need to mount and write a disk on linux, so its related i think | 10:11 |
| msanchez | alkisg: I've checked and this packaging bug is Ubuntu-specific | 10:11 |
| alkisg | msanchez: then the ubuntu launchpad page is the correct place to file it, yes | 10:11 |
| bazhang | someone_, then you need to redo it, unetbootin is not what you want for this | 10:11 |
| msanchez | which kind of makes sense, since Debian and Ubuntu package chromium in a completely different way | 10:11 |
| Trippz | i can only read the files, but i need to write data on this ntfs disk! | 10:12 |
| msanchez | cool, thanks for confirming | 10:12 |
| alkisg | np | 10:12 |
| TJ- | someone_: what error occurs when the 'Flash' device is selected to boot? | 10:12 |
| msanchez | alkisg: in case you're curious: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1742653 | 10:12 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1742653 in chromium-browser (Ubuntu) "chromium-browser 63+ package includes a 44MB binary only needed at build time" [Undecided,New] | 10:12 |
| Trippz | tried fuse, ntfs-3g but i still cant write data | 10:12 |
| alkisg | msanchez: nice; I think there was another package that included a whole lot of temporary photoshop files that the author happened to have in his build tree :D | 10:13 |
| Trippz | i need help | 10:13 |
| Trippz | please its important | 10:14 |
| mich1x_ | Ask your question | 10:14 |
| bazhang | Trippz, you are on ubuntu, and wish to write to a ntfs drive? | 10:14 |
| msanchez | tbh, I'm not surprised this big binary slipped into the package. Packaging chromium is already hard enough and chromium has a tendency to make so many changes between releases that's hard to keep up to date | 10:14 |
| Trippz | mich1x_: well i need to write data on a ntfs archive hard drive | 10:14 |
| alkisg | Trippz: what message do you see when you mount the drive? E.g. does it tell you it's hibernated or in use by windows? | 10:14 |
| someone_ | TJ- I think it was about can't find boot loader or something like this , I don't remember the message. | 10:14 |
| Trippz | alkisg: its already mounted, but i can only read files | 10:15 |
| alkisg | Trippz: unmount it and try again so that you see the error message | 10:15 |
| msanchez | we (Endless) noticed because we maintain space-constrained installations and this 44MB were contributing to an extra 300MB size increase in the new release that we need to deal with if we want the OS image to be installable in certain devices | 10:15 |
| Trippz | bazhang: yes | 10:15 |
| Trippz | alkisg: ok | 10:16 |
| mich1x_ | Maybe its windows drive and password protected | 10:16 |
| ubuntuuser | hello, i am having issues on boot of ubuntu-server 17.10 that is installed on my laptop. 1st systemctl disable systemd-networkd-wait-online.service does not disable it, it adds 60seconds approx to boot time | 10:16 |
| Trippz | mich1x_: yes its a windows archive drive, so ntfs.... | 10:16 |
| ubuntuuser | 2nd, modprobe bbswitch works perfectly fine, but if i write it in modules file, i get error on boot saying module not found | 10:17 |
| TJ- | someone_: so probably coming from the system firmware. That suggests that when you installed to the device, you didn't check that the bootloader target device was the same as the OS was being installed on. I've noticed in the past that when there are USB and fixed disk/SSD devices, the bootloader target defaults to a fixed disk/SDD (presumably assuming the USB device is the LiveISO medium). | 10:17 |
| TJ- | someone_: you can fix that by booting with the original LiveISO USB, then mounting the installed USB Flash to /target/ and chroot-ing into it, and installing GRUB manually | 10:18 |
| Trippz | alkisg: https://pastebin.com/JqpTgbHm | 10:18 |
| alkisg | Trippz: eh, what command did you give? You were supposed to run something like sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt | 10:19 |
| someone_ | TJ- and bazhang Thank you so much . | 10:19 |
| Trippz | for that i used the fdisk -l to show you the drive | 10:20 |
| alkisg | Trippz: ok, now run the mount command which is what we want to see | 10:21 |
| alkisg | `sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt` or something similar | 10:21 |

| za1b1tsu | http://paste.ubuntu.com/26365315/ | 10:32 |
| alkisg | Trippz: you need to disable "fast shutdown" on windows, or do a reboot, which is not "fast/unsafe" | 10:33 |
| Trippz | alkisg: how to disable fast shutdown? O_O never done that | 10:33 |
| alkisg | Trippz: so boot windows, run a chkdsk on that disk, then reboot, and at the time it's rebooting, turn off the power | 10:33 |
| alkisg | Trippz: that's a windows question, if you google "disable windows fast shutdown" you'll find thousands of tutorials, | 10:34 |
| alkisg | i also told you one way with reboot, and another is to press win+x and select shutdown from there | 10:34 |
| tatertots | za1b1tsu: rfkill list|pastebinit | 10:34 |
| Trippz | alkisg: so i go on windows, run a chkdsk on that disk then reboot ad shut off the power when rebooting? | 10:35 |
| alkisg | Trippz: sounds like a good plan, yes | 10:35 |
| za1b1tsu | tatertots: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26365334/ | 10:35 |
| Trippz | thanks master, i try this!!! | 10:35 |
| Trippz | i suppose that the forced power off dont write tha disk cache? | 10:36 |
| Trippz | its correct? | 10:36 |
| alkisg | Trippz: at the time when you see the "bios screen", the disk is not in use, so it's safe to unplug the power | 10:36 |

| MintoMa | I`m running Ubuntu 16.04 with kernel 4.10. From what I can tell, it isn't (nor will it be) patched against SPECTRE and Meltdown. What is the recommended action? | 10:46 |
| hateball | !hwe | MintoMa | 10:47 |
| ubottu | MintoMa: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack | 10:47 |
| hateball | MintoMa: that way you get 4.13 which is patched | 10:47 |
| alkisg | MintoMa, hateball: hwe is 4.10 on xenial, and it includes the patches | 10:49 |
| hateball | alkisg: oh, my bad | 10:49 |
| hateball | too much stuff going on atm | 10:50 |
| alkisg | hateball: actually you are right and I'm wrong, 4.13 arrived today :) | 10:50 |
| TJ- | alkisg: are you sure? "The Rolling HWE kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 will go to 4.13 early, instead of also fixing 4.10 HWE kernel." | 10:50 |
| alkisg | MintoMa: so just update | 10:50 |
| MintoMa | hateball: thanks | 10:50 |
| MintoMa | alkisg: are you sure? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/SpectreAndMeltdown | 10:51 |
| TJ- | MintoMa: for clarity, 4.13 replaces 4.10 as the HWE kernel for 16.04 :) | 10:51 |
| alkisg | MintoMa: I was wrong, see above | 10:51 |
| hateball | hah! small victories | 10:51 |

| jacko115 | Hello. I have an Ubuntu 17.10 computer connected to a tv as a media box. I turn off the TV at night (at the wall), which causes the logged in user to be logged off (not sure if it is a log off or a X server restart). The computer used to be on 16.04 and didn't have the problem before. Does anyone know how to stop this or know the cause? | 10:52 |
| TJ- | Looks like there are more PTI patches coming to fix regressions and bugs, before mainline 4.15 is released | 10:52 |
| TJ- | jacko115: is the 17.10 system using Wayland or Xorg ? | 10:53 |
| MintoMa | I ran the command 'sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-16.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04 ' to install hwe, but nothing is installed ('linux-generic-hwe-16.04 is already the newest version (4.13.0.26.46).1)'). However, uname -r says 4.10.0-42-generic. What am I missing. | 10:53 |
| TJ- | MintoMa: you've not rebooted? | 10:53 |
| MintoMa | That could be it. Checking now, its been a few days since I installed and its a remote machine. | 10:54 |
| jacko115 | TJ-: Xorg I believe (standard desktop install) | 10:55 |
| MintoMa | yup, all god now | 10:55 |
| MintoMa | thanks guys | 10:55 |
| alkisg | MintoMa: you didn't need the command, since you already had hwe | 10:55 |
| alkisg | Just apt-get dist-upgrade was enough | 10:55 |
| TJ- | jacko115: for 17.10 Wayland is the default unless it has problems with drivers (e.g. nvidia), in which case Xorg is used. You can also select the session type at the greeter screen before log-in | 10:56 |
| TJ- | jacko115: we've seen a lot user-facing regression with the way Wayland behaves compared to Xorg | 10:57 |
| jacko115 | TJ-: Ah. Indeed it is using Wayland. Will give it a shot with Xorg | 10:58 |

| axisys | E: Package 'libaio1' has no installation candidate | 11:07 |
| * zomaar_ a squirrel makes some noise on the forest floor | 11:11 | |
| sdfgsdf | hello, its on the news that with new ubuntu patch people can't even boot thier PCs | 11:11 |
| sdfgsdf | is this true ? is this fixed | 11:11 |
| zomaar_ | It has been fixed | 11:11 |
| sdfgsdf | cool | 11:11 |
| sdfgsdf | its still in the headlines though | 11:11 |
| sdfgsdf | ubuntu rekt | 11:11 |
| TJ- | sdfgsdf: it was fixed wtithin 4 hours | 11:11 |
| TJ- | sdfgsdf: never let the facts get in the way of a sensational news headline :) | 11:11 |
| sdfgsdf | exactly | 11:12 |
| zomaar_ | There has been some chaos here yes | 11:12 |
| brainwash | axisys: I would check the output of "apt-cache policy" and "apt-cache policy libaio1" | 11:12 |
| sdfgsdf | but fake news can be sensational | 11:12 |
| zomaar_ | It wasn't really fake because people's machines updated automatically | 11:12 |
| zomaar_ | And then didn't boot so couldn't update to the fixed version | 11:12 |
| sdfgsdf | so we rolled out a bug to humanity for a sec :( | 11:13 |
| sdfgsdf | thats unfair | 11:13 |
| sdfgsdf | dont people check before they push something | 11:13 |
| Ben64 | if people had automatic updates enabled, and rebooted in the time before the good version | 11:13 |
| axisys | brainwash: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26365619/ | 11:13 |
| Ben64 | and even then they could boot an older kernel | 11:13 |
| sdfgsdf | thats a whole lot of assumptions | 11:14 |
| zomaar_ | Not without help | 11:14 |
| TJ- | zomaar_: There's always older kernels to start with, and the GRUB<>OS good boot flag so GRUB knows to stop at the menu if the last boot failed | 11:14 |
| raub | Do I need to list the interfaces that belong to a bridge in /etc/network/interfaces? | 11:14 |
| sdfgsdf | most wont even know theres a second backup kernel | 11:14 |
| zomaar_ | raub: Yes with ports | 11:14 |
| brainwash | axisys: that's only the output of the second command | 11:15 |
| sdfgsdf | when exactly was pti introduced ? | 11:15 |
| zomaar_ | raub: Well they can also be dynamically added | 11:15 |
| sdfgsdf | last year ? | 11:15 |
| zomaar_ | raub: The option name is "bridge_ports" | 11:15 |
| axisys | brainwash: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26365624/ | 11:15 |
| sdfgsdf | or 5 jan ? | 11:16 |
| zomaar_ | There was also someone with failing virtualbox after the patch (kernel hangs) | 11:17 |
| raub | zomaar_: I meant having a separate entry for each interface. What you said was listing in the bridge interface definition which interfaces are part of it. Which I agree the brdige better know that. | 11:18 |
| indistylo | All of sudden my audio stopped working, it say "Dummy output" Seems some sound card issue > My initial troubleshooting didn't worked, for driver details see this please : https://paste.debian.net/1004602/ | 11:18 |

| indistylo | zomaar_, reboot | 11:19 |
| jacko115 | TF-: Just tried it on Ubuntu on Xorg and had the same issue. Have gone onto Unity and don't have the issue | 11:19 |
| raub | zomaar_: i.e. http://pastebin.centos.org/492281/. Do I need lines 4-6? | 11:20 |
| zomaar_ | raub: You want an IP address for each part you mean? | 11:20 |
| TJ- | jacko115: that points the finger at the desktop environment then | 11:20 |
| zomaar_ | raub: Some people advise against putting IP on the constituent parts | 11:21 |
| zomaar_ | raub: But the interface does need to be configured aside from that | 11:21 |
| zomaar_ | raub: But you can put it to manual | 11:21 |
| brainwash | axisys: did you disable the "main" repository? | 11:22 |
| axisys | brainwash: not intentionally.. but I guess it looks missing? | 11:22 |
| zomaar_ | raub: Then put the IP on the bridge itself... | 11:22 |
| raub | zomaar_: so, do I *need* to declar enp0s25 as mentioned in the pastebin, be it static or manual? The question is still whther I need the lines. | 11:22 |
| axisys | brainwash: yes.. looks like I do not see this | 11:23 |
| axisys | brainwash: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages | 11:23 |
| zomaar_ | raub: Yes you do | 11:23 |
| raub | zomaar_: the ubuntu wiki examples do not have that | 11:23 |
| zomaar_ | At least I think so | 11:23 |
| zomaar_ | Well then test without it | 11:23 |
| zomaar_ | But I can't test on my running system | 11:23 |

| axisys | brainwash: even the -security | 11:24 |
| axisys | :-) | 11:24 |
| brainwash | axisys: I wonder how you managed to disable those | 11:24 |
| axisys | brainwash: not sure.. hmm.. | 11:24 |
| raub | zomaar_: I understand. I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConnectionBridge. It worked for months but on last reboot the bridge stopped working for my vm guests | 11:25 |

| zomaar_ | Okay so i am wrong | 11:26 |
| zomaar_ | Did you upgrade to newer kernel btw? | 11:26 |
| raub | zomaar_: actually my bridge is a bit more complex (http://pastebin.centos.org/492291/) | 11:26 |
| raub | zomaar_: Yep | 11:27 |
| TJ- | zomaar_: according to "man bridge-utils-interfaces" : "bridge_ports ... shouldn't have any stanzas defining them on the interfaces file" | 11:27 |
| raub | zomaar_: Well, 4.4.0-83-generic | 11:27 |
| TJ- | raub (sorry zomaar_ !) according to "man bridge-utils-interfaces" : "bridge_ports ... shouldn't have any stanzas defining them on the interfaces file" | 11:28 |
| raub | TJ-: so http://pastebin.centos.org/492291/ looks proper? | 11:28 |
| zomaar_ | raub: Okay so you are on older kernel, so nothing happened there | 11:28 |
| zomaar_ | TJ-: Right, I think I was using it to perform some manual ifup commands, not sure | 11:29 |
| raub | zomaar_: Newer kernel has weirdness? I am on 16.04LTS | 11:29 |

| raub | zomaar_: I appreciate any help. I have been fighting this since Monday and still have gone nowhere slowly | 11:30 |
| TJ- | raub: that looks sane, although I'd move it to /etc/network/interfaces.d/bridge rather than altering the package-supplied /etc/network/interfaces - tha way, on package upgrades, you won't be prompted whether to keep or replace the existing interfaces file | 11:30 |
| zomaar_ | raub: I have no clue what could be wrong either, my setup is a lot more complex but | 11:31 |
| jacko115 | TJ-: Thanks for your help. Will post the bug with Gnome | 11:31 |
| zomaar_ | raub: I define a virtual bridge and then LXC adds ports to it | 11:31 |
| raub | TJ-: I can do that since it just includes everyone in interfaces.d per line 5. You mean just the br0 declaration. | 11:31 |
| TJ- | raub: you'll notice 'interfaces' is doing "source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*" to include all files from that directory | 11:31 |
| === Guest5377 is now known as EriC^^ | ||
| raub | TJ-: which is what I meant when I said line 5 in my pastebin :) | 11:32 |
| TJ- | raub: correct, for the bridge interface. having one file per interface/related group also makes admin easier and more logical | 11:32 |

| bipul | I just wanted to change runlevel's permanently in Ubuntu. | 11:33 |
| zomaar_ | raub: Any recent upgrades from /var/log/apt/history.log? | 11:33 |
| TJ- | raub: if the bridge isn't starting the logs should give some clues, maybe "journalctl -u networking.service" | 11:33 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: What version of Ubuntu? | 11:33 |
| raub | TJ-: http://pastebin.centos.org/492306/ | 11:34 |
| TJ- | bipul: runlevels haven't been used in a long time for service control | 11:34 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: Is your goal non-graphical boot? | 11:34 |
| raub | I will get the journalctl entry if different | 11:34 |
| bipul | zomaar_ 12.04.5 LTS | 11:34 |
| zomaar_ | try to delete the bridge | 11:35 |
| bipul | It should be 3 and 5 | 11:35 |
| TJ- | raub: reproduce it with debug info with "sudo ifup -va" see if there's more clues; probably a syntax issue | 11:35 |
| zomaar_ | use brctl to delete the bridge | 11:35 |
| sdfgsdf | is there an auto update for ubuntu ? I thought we would manually have to do this | 11:35 |
| zomaar_ | then use ifdown --force on the interface br0, or do that first | 11:35 |
| zomaar_ | then use ifup br0 again | 11:36 |
| TJ- | bipul: 12.04 is not longer supported, you should upgrade to 14.04 or 16.04 | 11:36 |
| bipul | Ok | 11:36 |
| bipul | After that | 11:36 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: I also have no knowledge of it | 11:36 |
| raub | zomaar_: you are those for me or someone else? I was going through was TJ- is suggesting | 11:36 |
| zomaar_ | raub: For you | 11:37 |
| zomaar_ | Just try it | 11:37 |
| raub | zomaar_: give me an hour to be in front of the machine. Not doing that remotely | 11:38 |
| bipul | T-J upgrading it | 11:38 |
| raub | TJ-: I will check output from ifup also in an hour. Doing this from a 11" screen laptop is getting interesting. And I now need to rush to go to work | 11:38 |
| axisys | brainwash: thanks for your help! | 11:39 |

| linuxr | Hi all. Yesterday I upgraded my system (using apt dist-upgrade), and a package broke my system, so I removed that package (using apt purge). Now I hear a fixed version of the package is available, but I can't see it (apt-update)...help, anyone? | 11:48 |
| TJ- | linuxr: it would help if you told us what the package is, and on which release of Ubuntu | 11:49 |
| IhrFussel | Question: Which signal does the init process send to all others in case ACPI/power is pressed? | 11:50 |
| linuxr | TJ-, ubuntu 16.04, package linux-image-4.4.0-108 | 11:52 |
| zomaar_ | linuxr: Having fun? | 11:52 |
| zomaar_ | I know I am | 11:52 |
| linuxr | zomaar_, I would not call that fun | 11:53 |
| zomaar_ | linuxr: Uhuh | 11:53 |
| zomaar_ | linuxr: So why is 109 not available to you then? | 11:54 |
| linuxr | zomaar_, that's exactly the question...apt-date update && apt-get dist-upgrade does not suggest any new packages, and I'm on 104 currently | 11:54 |
| zomaar_ | (Maybe I am confusing the same username here) | 11:54 |
| TJ- | linuxr: that's because that package was retired and superceded by a different version | 11:55 |
| zomaar_ | linuxr: Did you remove linux-generic? | 11:55 |
| jablo | Anyone using VirtualBox on Dell XPS 9560 with Ubuntu 16.04? No matter which Virtual machine I start my laptop immediately locks up completely and only a hard (power cycle) can bring it back to life. | 11:55 |
| zomaar_ | jablo: Someone else had the same issue | 11:56 |
| tatertots | jablo: open terminal | 11:56 |
| tatertots | jablo: sudo apt install inxi pastebinit | 11:56 |
| TJ- | linuxr: you only need to ensure "linux-generic" or "linux-lowlatency" are installed (or for HWE linux-{generic,lowlatency}-hwe | 11:56 |
| zomaar_ | linuxr: If you reinstall linux-generic it will update to something newer | 11:56 |
| tatertots | jablo: let me know when done | 11:56 |
| tatertots | jablo: or just wait for someone else to help you | 11:56 |
| jablo | tatertots: thanks. Will try immediately. | 11:56 |
| zomaar_ | jablo: And try to show uname -r | 11:57 |
| linuxr | TJ-, zomaar_ thanks..I'll try to install linux-generic...that actually suggests 109 | 11:57 |
| zomaar_ | linuxr: linux-generic was removed when you removed 108, but it is responsible to "upgrading" kernels to later versions | 11:58 |
| linuxr | while downloading, there's time for a prayer that the system will reboot | 11:58 |
| zomaar_ | :) | 11:58 |
| TJ- | linuxr: the way kernel packages work is top-level 'meta' package that declares a Depends: on a specific linux-{image,headers}-<version> so an update to the 'meta' package (linux-generic) will automatically pull in the correct kernel | 11:58 |
| floogy | gedit does not show recent opened files on ubuntu 16.04.3 I had formerly no zeitgeist installed, but installed it now. The issue didnt go away. I got such messages on zeitgeist restart: | 11:59 |
| floogy | ** (zeitgeist-datahub:25610): WARNING **: zeitgeist-datahub.vala:229: Unable to get name "org.gnome.zeitgeist.datahub" on the bus! | 11:59 |
| linuxr | TJ-, thanks for the explanation, that all makes sense now | 11:59 |
| jablo1 | Ok, I installed it, tatertots. | 12:00 |
| zomaar_ | jablo1: What is the output of "uname -r"? | 12:00 |
| jablo1 | zomaar_: 4.13.0-26-generic | 12:00 |
| roses | I have 2 HDD and they dont stop spinning after I eject them (with the gui). I have to unplug them. I fear I may be shortening the lifespan of these HDD. Is there any package I can install? | 12:01 |
| zomaar_ | So you have the Meltdown patch right | 12:01 |
| floogy | I also tried to zeitgeist-daemon --quit && rm -rvf ~/.local/share/zeitgeist/fts.index/ && zeitgeist-daemon --replace | 12:01 |
| roses | samsung and toshiba satas with an aluminum enclosure | 12:01 |
| zomaar_ | jablo1: The meltdown patch may have introduced problems with Virtualbox | 12:01 |
| TJ- | roses: are these disk drives attached via USB? | 12:01 |
| roses | TJ-, yes | 12:01 |
| roses | usb 3 | 12:01 |
| jablo1 | zomaar_: Ok, so I might need to back down kernel version? | 12:02 |
| zomaar_ | jablo1: Yes | 12:02 |
| tatertots | jablo1: inxi -Fxxprzc0|pastebinit | 12:02 |
| tatertots | jablo1: share url/link here | 12:02 |
| zomaar_ | jablo1: Correct | 12:02 |
| linuxr | ok, fingers crossed..going to reboot | 12:03 |
| zomaar_ | roses: You can write a script to run hdparm -Y on the disks after unmounting | 12:03 |
| jablo1 | tatertots: the inxi command just hangs; does it only work once? | 12:03 |
| zomaar_ | roses: But I have no ready answer for you | 12:03 |
| TJ- | roses: if I recall correctly the auto spin-down power save was disabled many years ago due to some disks having problems with frequent/rapid spin-up/spin-down, but I thought that had been resolved long ago. I'd have expected the driver to issue a power down command. have you tried using 'hdparm' to spin-down manually to prove the USB>disk interface allows/passes the command ? | 12:04 |
| jablo1 | zomaar_: I think I have a slightly older kernel I can select at boot. | 12:04 |
| tatertots | jablo1: if inxi hangs..sounds like your system is unstable | 12:04 |
| tatertots | jablo1: reboot and rerun the above command and report results | 12:04 |
| jablo1 | ok | 12:04 |
| zomaar_ | jablo1: You can downgrade "linux-generic" and then put it on hold, or fix a older kernel in /etc/default/grub to boot the older kernel always | 12:05 |
| jablo1 | I'll try both then be back here. cya. | 12:05 |
| roses | TJ-, so is this a drivers problem? I mean, it can only be solved with drivers from the vendor? | 12:06 |
| linuxr | wow, reboot successful...and no noticeable performance drop. -109 includes the meltdown mitigations, right? | 12:06 |
| zomaar_ | Yes | 12:06 |
| kostkon | linuxr, cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep pti | 12:06 |
| geirha | linuxr: apt changelog "linux-image-$(uname -r)" | 12:06 |
| TJ- | roses: do the 'hdparm' spin-down test first. Once you know whether the USB enclosure passes the command you can investigate further | 12:06 |
| linuxr | kostkon, what should that show? | 12:07 |
| zomaar_ | roses: Try to see if "lsblk" will show you the names of the drives | 12:07 |
| zomaar_ | roses: Then run "sudo hdparm -Y /dev/name" | 12:07 |
| kostkon | linuxr, it's the new cpu flag related to the meltdown patch | 12:07 |
| TJ- | linuxr: "dmesg | grep isolation" should show "Kernel/User page tables isolation: enabled" | 12:07 |
| zomaar_ | Hi Jablo | 12:08 |
| jablo | tatertots: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26365829/ | 12:08 |
| linuxr | yes, it does indeed, TJ- | 12:08 |
| jablo | zomaar_: I forgot to change kernel, so I'll have to reboot again and see. | 12:08 |
| linuxr | kostkon, I doubt you would see that in /proc/cpuinfo? | 12:09 |
| zomaar_ | linuxr: Doing is the ender of all doubts | 12:09 |
| tatertots | jablo: good...inxi doesn't lock up when run in a stable environment | 12:10 |
| Ben64 | TJ-: doesn't show that on my system :o | 12:10 |
| jablo | tatertots: I probably was just impatient | 12:10 |
| kostkon | linuxr, you would. Looks like it creates a new flag, i believe only on affected cpus, i might be wrong | 12:11 |
| tatertots | jablo: now that its stabilized somewhat from a reboot...try your vm's again | 12:11 |
| jablo | This is a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04.03 from yesterday evening. Only added a few packages and my home directory from my older machine | 12:11 |
| tatertots | jablo: same result? | 12:11 |
| kerneled | in an uptodate Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS boot partition is 100% full ... older kernels dont seem to be deleted | 12:11 |
| jablo | tatertots: I'll try. If it locks up, requires a reboot though. I'll be back | 12:11 |
| tatertots | jablo: ok | 12:11 |
| TJ- | Ben64: what version/arch ? | 12:11 |
| linuxr | zomaar_, kostkon : I suppose you would see any related microcode updates in /proc/cpuinfo, right? but not the meltdown fix (pti) | 12:11 |
| kerneled | can I manually delete older kernels in boot? | 12:11 |
| zomaar_ | linuxr: You can only find out by checking | 12:12 |
| TJ- | kerneled: does "sudo apt autoremove" help? | 12:12 |
| kostkon | linuxr, just that new flag (that's all i know) | 12:12 |
| linuxr | zomaar_, I see the output in dmesg, but nothing in /proc/cpuinfo | 12:12 |
| Ben64 | TJ-: 16.04 amd64 | 12:12 |
| TJ- | kerneled: generally, there should be 3 versions in place, and all other should be removed by autoremove | 12:13 |
| Ben64 | Linux ben64 4.13.0-25-generic #29~16.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 9 12:16:39 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 12:13 |
| TJ- | Ben64: did dmesg overflow since boot? it's a ring buffer | 12:13 |
| Ben64 | nope | 12:13 |
| Ben64 | only been up 6.5hrs | 12:14 |
| kerneled_ | TJ: there are about 20 kernels in /boot ... 'uname -a' gives the oldest of the list ... should I still issue 'autoremove'? | 12:17 |
| tatertots | jablo: did it lock up on ya | 12:18 |
| TJ- | kerneled_: that is 'weird'! | 12:18 |
| zomaar_ | kerneled_: Looks like you manually installed a kernel | 12:18 |
| TJ- | kerneled_: can you show us "pastebinit <( apt list 'linux-image*' --installed )" | 12:18 |
| zomaar_ | kerneled_: Question is which one do you want to keep using | 12:18 |
| jablo1 | tatertots: Still complete lockup when I start a virtual machine | 12:19 |
| zomaar_ | jablo1: Kernel changed? | 12:19 |
| === daniel is now known as Guest38230 | ||
| jablo1 | I'm on kernel 4.10.0-28-generic now, so will try with that | 12:19 |

| kerneled_ | TJ: the laptop had been bought off ebay with ubuntu preinstalled ... looks like manual install is possible ...pastebin? | 12:19 |
| tatertots | jablo1: let me know when done | 12:19 |
| tatertots | jablo1: also your Nvidia installation was NOT successful | 12:20 |
| tatertots | jablo1: and that can manifest itself in weird ways | 12:20 |
| zomaar_ | kerneled_: Not just manual install but also has set the default to the oldest kernel | 12:20 |
| TJ- | roses: I'm not familiar with thunar's behaviour so I can't help there | 12:21 |
| zomaar_ | roses: I already gave you the answer Roses, but TJ- will save you. | 12:23 |
| SimonNL | roses: on right clicking does it show disconnect or something in that order | 12:23 |
| jablo1 | tatertots: WIth kernel 4.10.0-28-generic virtualbox seems to work fine and does not lock up my whole system. Nice with a workaround. | 12:23 |
| SimonNL | hi tatertots good seeing you active here. | 12:23 |
| kerneled_ | TJ, zomaar : pastebinned output for 'apt list 'linux-image*' --installed' | 12:23 |

| roses | zomaar_, I dont know to write scripts | 12:25 |
| zomaar_ | roses: If you want one it's simple. | 12:25 |
| kerneled_ | zomaar : can I install latest kernel and manually point to it and then make it autoate updates in the future? | 12:25 |
| zomaar_ | roses: But I need to know if you are okay something shoddy and with waiting 10 minutes before they spin down? | 12:25 |
| roses | o wait, it spinned down, and I dont know if its due to sudo hdparm -S 25 /dev/sdb | 12:26 |
| zomaar_ | roses: Also you can probably get them to also spin down while still active | 12:26 |
| zomaar_ | roses: Ah you set a sleep timer | 12:26 |
| roses | ill test a bit | 12:27 |
| zomaar_ | roses: Yes that's what I mean, that is even much easier | 12:27 |
| kerneled_ | TJ, zomaar: fyi the laptop owner in desperation has moved some of the big vmlinuz files in /boot away to another folder ... he may have lost some files too ... is it best to reinstall or try correct this? | 12:27 |
| tatertots | SimonNL: hi there | 12:27 |
| zomaar_ | kerneled_: It is just best to manually delete (remove the packages) of the X middle kernels | 12:28 |
| zomaar_ | kerneled_: Where is your pastebin? | 12:28 |
| === dildar is now known as hodor123456 | ||

| jablo | tatertots: me too. | 12:28 |
| jablo | thanks for hte help | 12:29 |
| tatertots | jablo: no prob | 12:29 |
| TJ- | kerneled_: notice the "auto-removable" mentioned? "sudo apt autoremove" will remove those | 12:29 |
| kerneled_ | zomaar: TJ: ok will try 'autoremove' and be right back ... in case the system goes down (using the machine to irc) should I symlink somethign to point to the latest kernel? | 12:31 |
| zomaar_ | You can also run: for i in 70 72 75 78 79 81; do sudo apt remove linux-image-4.4.0-$i-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-$i-generic; done | 12:31 |
| zomaar_ | That will remove everything but the first and the last | 12:31 |
| zomaar_ | But ask for confirmation at each step | 12:32 |
| TJ- | kerneled_: no manual intervention should be necessary | 12:32 |
| zomaar_ | He's afraid his oldest kernel will be removed | 12:32 |
| TJ- | unless there's a GRUB default over-ride in /etc/default/grub the latest kernel will be booted | 12:33 |
| zomaar_ | Yes and he has booted the oldest | 12:33 |
| zomaar_ | kerneled_: No symlinks | 12:34 |
| zomaar_ | kerneled_: Only maybe run update-grub | 12:34 |
| TJ- | kerneled_: if files have been deleted/moved manually then once the autoremove is done and space is available (check with "df -h") then you should do "sudo apt --reinstall install <package>" for the remaining kernels to ensure you've not problem them | 12:35 |
| TJ- | zomaar_: update-grub is run as part of the kernel install/remove process | 12:35 |
| kerneled_ | zomaar, TJ: ok thanks ...may go offline | 12:35 |
| zomaar_ | I know, but just in case | 12:35 |
| matglas | I there. I would like to know if and how its possible to configure a apt repo and only retrieve information for a specific package and its dependencies. But dont look at is for example for a general apt-get update and apt-get upgrade. | 12:36 |
| zomaar_ | matglas: You mean a newer version of the same distribution right | 12:36 |
| matglas | euhm no. | 12:37 |
| alkisg | matglas: the information is per repository, not per package | 12:37 |
| zomaar_ | matglas: A PPA then? | 12:37 |
| alkisg | So you would need to pull at least all the repository details | 12:37 |
| alkisg | matglas: for code example, see software-properties-gtk | 12:37 |
| matglas | For the time beeing I would like to install the kernel from the 16.04 repo in my 15.10 version. But the rest of the installation needs to receive its updates from the 15.10 repo | 12:37 |
| alkisg | Running software-properties-gtk, and adding a source, it pulls only the data from that one source | 12:37 |
| zomaar_ | matglas: That's a newer version of the same distribution | 12:38 |
| matglas | zomaar_, true. sorry misunderstood | 12:38 |
| alkisg | That's apt priority and apt pinning | 12:38 |
| roses | now im curious: if you run HDD in enclosures bought separately, do you run sudo hdparm -S 1 /dev/sda or udo hdparm -y /dev/sda each time you dont need the unit anymore? | 12:38 |
| alkisg | You can put repositories with lower priorities etc | 12:38 |
| zomaar_ | matglas: You can fix your distribution to Apt::Default-Distribution = <name of 15.10> | 12:39 |
| roses | or, what file manager do you use, that automatically spins HDDs down, after ejection (in the gui)? | 12:39 |
| alkisg | roses: udisksctl poweroff -b /dev/sdb | 12:39 |
| zomaar_ | roses: hold on a sec rose | 12:39 |
| alkisg | (or, nautilus/caja) | 12:40 |
| matglas | alkisg, I'll look into that. thanks | 12:40 |
| matglas | alkisg, priority. | 12:40 |
| zomaar_ | matglas: I only know that you can pin your distrition to 15.10 while having 16.04 in your sources | 12:40 |
| zomaar_ | matglas: Then it will never automatically use 16.04 | 12:40 |
| zomaar_ | matglas: But to use it you have to specify apt install <package>/xenial | 12:41 |
| asdada | Hey guys. Is the mini.iso affected by the bios bug? | 12:41 |
| alkisg | matglas: a good page for reading is https://wiki.debian.org/AptPreferences | 12:41 |

| zomaar_ | matglas: This is done using Apt::Default-Distribution | 12:41 |

| zomaar_ | On that page | 12:41 |
| TJ- | kerneled_: I just cobbled together a command-string to automate the reinstall of the kept kernel packages: " apt --reinstall install $( apt list 'linux-image-*' --installed 2>/dev/null | sed -rn 's,^(linux-image.*)/.*,\1,p' ) " | 12:41 |
| kerneled_ | TJ: ok thanks ... I'll put everything back in to /boot and then try the command-string ...unless advised otherwise .. | 12:43 |
| zomaar_ | roses: I have no experience currently with external devices, don't use them on this computer | 12:44 |
| zomaar_ | roses: Not knowing how otherwise to solve it, I would quickly write the script I was mentioning | 12:44 |
| zomaar_ | roses: But that's just what I would do | 12:44 |
| zomaar_ | roses: Maybe Nautilus has options as said | 12:45 |
| roses | question for the whole room: Is nautilus your prefered file manager? | 12:49 |
| TJ- | roses: no; I am my preferred file manager | 12:49 |
| zomaar_ | This would be the kinda script I'd write: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26366021/ | 12:50 |
| zomaar_ | And then just put it in /etc/rc.local, probably solved for now | 12:50 |
| zomaar_ | roses: I am using KDE so I have Dolphin | 12:51 |
| zomaar_ | roses: But I don't think Linux file managers are that great, Nautilus is probably better | 12:51 |
| akik | zomaar_: are you missing some feature in dolphin? | 12:52 |
| zomaar_ | Dolphin in 16.04 tries to open the network .desktop file in a file viewer instead of executing it | 12:53 |
| zomaar_ | I mean that's just one example | 12:53 |
| === shab is now known as crytospider | ||
| zomaar_ | I don't know how to elevate privileges, and networking (samba) has always been really poor with Dolphin to my understanding | 12:54 |
| roses | illgoogle some more | 12:55 |
| zomaar_ | (Personally I also don't like the "search" features on the left, and would like to see libraries there) | 12:55 |
| zomaar_ | Overall the GTK things are somewhat better integrated... Nautilus and Cinnamon | 12:56 |
| matglas | alkisg, zomaar_ thanks that pionter to priority in apt worked. | 12:56 |

| sruli | is it possible to use "pass" in portable mode? i want the key and pass store on a flash drive and be able to add / view directly on drive without needing to import gpg key | 12:57 |

| Ben64 | Haris: no | 13:02 |
| augustin6584 | oxbffff: what do you mean? | 13:02 |
| alkisg | augustin6584: actually the easiest way would be friendly-recovery, i.e. select "recovery mode" in grub | 13:02 |
| wasutton3 | so /dev/shm is limited to a maximum of 50% of the system ram. Is there a way to change that? | 13:02 |

| JonelethIrenicus | I have 3 previous version of a software taking up about 250mb each | 13:03 |
| JonelethIrenicus | how can i get rid of them | 13:03 |
| augustin6584 | alkisg: that doesnt work | 13:03 |
| alkisg | augustin6584: what is the error message? | 13:03 |
| augustin6584 | alkisg: i choose fsck, then it show all finished message and change the filesystem stat to read/write | 13:04 |
| oxbffff | yeah | 13:04 |
| TJ- | wasutton3: /dev/shm is provided by tmpfs where 50% is the default; mount can chan change the size for tmpfs mounts; not sure about shm though | 13:04 |
| oxbffff | did u install on usb stick ? | 13:04 |
| Ben64 | Haris: no | 13:04 |
| augustin6584 | but if i choose continue it will boot into read only again | 13:04 |
| augustin6584 | oxbffff: no | 13:04 |
| TJ- | augustin6584: is this on a laptop? | 13:05 |
| Haris | ok, that would be through official way. how about un-official way ? | 13:05 |
| augustin6584 | TJ-: yes | 13:05 |
| oxbffff | augustin6584, so you installed on cd ? | 13:05 |
| alkisg | augustin6584: to clarify: you can get to writeable mode from recovery? Where you can e.g. touch /hello and it will work? | 13:05 |
| TJ- | augustin6584: check if it has "laptop-mode-tools" installed: "apt list -a laptop-mode-tools --installed" | 13:05 |
| oxbffff | ahh | 13:05 |
| augustin6584 | it was woorking quite good then i just booted into rescue mode several times and then it stopped working | 13:05 |
| wasutton3 | TJ-, I've tried to change it in the fstab, but theres some other limitation | 13:05 |
| TJ- | augustin6584: there's a known bug due to interaction with l.m.t. and systemd that causes / to go read-only | 13:06 |
| Ben64 | Haris: that would be a Bad Idea™ | 13:06 |
| augustin6584 | TJ-: right now only if i drop to root shell | 13:06 |
| Haris | in what way ? | 13:06 |
| oxbffff | his laptop is fucked | 13:06 |
| oxbffff | may aswell throw it away | 13:06 |
| Ben64 | Haris: in the way of running unsupported software | 13:06 |
| TJ- | wasutton3: Last time I looked at that it was reading the kernel source, and the Documentation/fs/ stuff on it | 13:06 |
| Devrim | I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS atm, when I do uname -r it says I have kernel version 3.14.32 but the ubuntu spectre and meltdown page is talking about kernel 4.13/4.4, am I doing something wrong? | 13:06 |
| oxbffff | Linux oxbffff 4.4.0-31-generic #50~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 13 01:06:37 UTC 2016 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux | 13:07 |
| Ben64 | Devrim: is that all uname says? | 13:07 |
| Devrim | Ben64 it says 3.14.32-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64 for uname -r | 13:07 |
| Ben64 | its a vm then, and you're using the kernel they have | 13:07 |
| kerneled_ | TJ: I had to issue 'apt -f autoremove' along the way ...df -h shows /boot is only 27% used now ls -l /boot is as here: <https://paste.ubuntu.com/26366087/> | 13:07 |
| oxbffff | hmm | 13:07 |
| augustin6584 | TJ-: what should i do? | 13:08 |
| Devrim | Ok Ben64 it's an OVH box, they sey they are busy patching the servers on the hardware side so I guess I will wait on them | 13:08 |
| oxbffff | augustin6584, smash ur laptop | 13:08 |
| TJ- | kerneled_: do the --reinstall operation I recommended to ensure none of the installed kernels are broken, then a reboot should be safe | 13:08 |
| oxbffff | yeh install linux | 13:08 |
| TJ- | augustin6584: does apt report laptop-mode-tools is installed? | 13:09 |
| Ben64 | Devrim: wait is it a vm? google is telling me that kernel might not be | 13:09 |
| Devrim | I don't think so Ben64 | 13:09 |
| Devrim | It's a dedicated server from OVH | 13:09 |
| Devrim | so not shared or anything | 13:09 |
| Ben64 | oh then get rid of that crap and use the standard ubuntu kernel (but backup first) | 13:09 |
| augustin6584 | TJ-: no i dont use this | 13:10 |
| Devrim | Do you happen to have a guide Ben64? | 13:10 |
| kerneled_ | TJ: you mean issue the command-string again? (ie "apt --reinstall install $( apt list 'linux-image-*' --installed 2>/dev/null | sed -rn 's,^(linux-image.*)/.*,\1,p'" )) | 13:10 |
| kerneled_ | TJ: you mean issue the command-string again? (ie "apt --reinstall install $( apt list 'linux-image-*' --installed 2>/dev/null | sed -rn 's,^(linux-image.*)/.*,\1,p'" )) | 13:10 |
| Ben64 | Devrim: found this online, your results may differ https://www.kiloroot.com/switch-to-standard-ubuntu-kernel-on-ovh-or-kimsufi-servers/ | 13:10 |
| TJ- | Devrim: see : https://serverfault.com/questions/786499/change-kernel-of-centos-ovh | 13:11 |
| Devrim | thanks Ben64 and TJ- will take a look at it later today | 13:11 |
| TJ- | kerneled_: if you've already done that you don't need it again, you're done | 13:11 |
| oxbffff | what distro are you running augustin6584 | 13:11 |
| TJ- | augustin6584: OK, so the bug I had in mind isn't causing your read-only root-fs issue | 13:11 |
| oxbffff | ? | 13:12 |
| augustin6584 | TJ-: yes it definitely different thing | 13:12 |
| oxbffff | augustin6584, what are you running | 13:12 |
| TJ- | augustin6584: check for disk I/O errors in "dmesg" | 13:12 |

| oxbffff | augustin6584, what you need to do is reinstall | 13:14 |
| augustin6584 | oxbffff: please shut up | 13:14 |
| xshell | I'm trying to script "apt-get dist-upgrade" but it throws a couple f menus . . | 13:14 |
| oxbffff | why? | 13:14 |
| xshell | so how can i get rid of that and automate this . ? | 13:14 |
| oxbffff | pfft | 13:14 |
| xshell | apt-get dist-upgrade -y doen't work | 13:15 |
| zomaar_ | xshell: --nointeractive I believe | 13:15 |
| oxbffff | might have a shot | 13:15 |
| akik | zomaar_: i had to put the mount to autofs. otherwise on reboot, the network interface was shutdown before the mount was umounted | 13:16 |
| TJ- | xshell: you'll get prompts if you've changed package-supplied config files, so the solution is to move those customisations if possible to other files, or temporarily switch the files to the package-supplied version in your script whilst apt runs | 13:16 |
| augustin6584 | EXT4-fs error device sda2: ext4_journal_check_start:61: Detected aborted journal | 13:16 |

| augustin6584 | EXT4-fs remounting filesystem read-only | 13:17 |
| xshell | Thanks TJ- but how can I keep the same configs/vendor version ? ? | 13:17 |
| TJ- | xshell: e.g, in the easy case where a package uses run-parts, you could move custom stanzas from /etc/network/interfaces to a new file at /etc/network/interfaces.d/myconfig | 13:17 |
| xshell | is there a way to let the promots use the default option and proceed with that | 13:17 |
| akik | zomaar_: systemd stupidity, i'd say | 13:17 |
| zomaar_ | akik: If you put _netdev as option in fstab the mounts should get dependency on network-online.target though so that should not happen | 13:17 |
| TJ- | xshell: the solution depends on which packages are affected and which files | 13:17 |
| zomaar_ | akik: I think those words mean the same ;-) | 13:17 |
| Haris | thank you all | 13:18 |
| xshell | TJ-: actually this is default image (amazon ubuntu 16.04 image) | 13:18 |
| zomaar_ | xshell: --nointeractive | 13:18 |
| xshell | so I'm even not sure which files are change so want to proceed with promots and using the default options | 13:18 |
| augustin6584 | alkisg: i just hit fsck from the menu and then i get fsck from util-linux 2.27.1 | 13:18 |

| oxbffff | google no help ? | 13:19 |

| augustin6584 | alkisg: no, there isnt anything else | 13:19 |

| alkisg | augustin6584: I'm afraid you put the wrong device there. You have windows and sda1 is your windows and sda2 your ubuntu? Put sda2 then. | 13:24 |
| oxbffff | wtf u on about augustin6584 ? | 13:24 |
| augustin6584 | alkisg: but it looks like the sda2 is corrupted somehow | 13:24 |
| augustin6584 | yes | 13:24 |
| augustin6584 | sda1 is just /boot | 13:24 |

| dragosdrgm12 | help | 13:26 |
| TJ- | matglas: does your VPS provider not publish the kernel source and config ? Maybe make a support request for it? | 13:26 |
| alkisg | augustin6584: when you are in the recovery console, it's mounted read-only, so you can fsck it | 13:26 |
| matglas | Difference is that it runs 4.14 but the my distro version is working with the 3 range | 13:26 |
| alkisg | augustin6584: follow again my previous instructions, just put the correct device there | 13:27 |

| matglas | Yes I looked into that file. | 13:28 |
| oxbffff | yeh | 13:29 |
| oxbffff | boot something | 13:29 |

| alkisg | augustin6584: eh, you can't unmount it, you need the programs for that. Now you may break it | 13:32 |
| xshell | not sure if it worked or should I go for some other option (and not --force-yes) | 13:32 |
| TJ- | xshell: the mdadm warning sounds like a result if an update-initramfs run | 13:32 |
| alkisg | augustin6584: fsck from that point works fine here. If you think you're doing it correctly and it doesn't work, use a live cd | 13:32 |
| xshell | TJ-: so I'm assuming that it worked (as kernel got updated) so just thinking if I've to change --force-yes | 13:33 |
| TJ- | xshell: ahh, for the --force-yes check the man page for your version | 13:33 |
| oxbffff | hmm man | 13:33 |
| TJ- | xshell: sounds like it, yes, the actual config prompts are done by dpkg not apt, and you're passing options to dpkg to control that | 13:33 |

| matglas | dragosdrgm12, well its kind of a general question. Like what would be a good computer to buy | 13:36 |
| TJ- | dragosdrgm12: each time you visit the channel you ask questions which are not Ubuntu support matters. The specifics of hosting some non-Ubuntu software is not something we can support. | 13:36 |
| TJ- | xshell: let me look, those don't really sound like true replacements do they | 13:36 |
| matglas | dragosdrgm12, maybe you could give some context. | 13:36 |
| matglas | make things more specific | 13:37 |
| xshell | TJ-: yes they don't seem to be | 13:37 |
| TJ- | xshell: actually, try it without --force-yes, it may not be necessary! | 13:37 |
| TJ- | xshell: seeing as the conf activity is done by dpkg and you've passed it the required options | 13:38 |

| xshell | TJ-: woudl request if you can explain this command for me:) "Dpkg::Options::="--force-confdef" -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold"" | 13:43 |
| xshell | just thinking what it does | 13:43 |
| slipttees | paste: pastebin.ubuntu.com/26366223/ | 13:45 |
| alkisg | slipttees: what's the output of this command? sudo LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en update-grub | 13:46 |
| TJ- | xshell: apt uses those options to control the options to underlying calls to the 'dpkg' tool - see "man 4 apt.conf" and search for "dpkg" | 13:47 |
| slipttees | alkisg: output Generation grub configuration file... grub-probe: error: not a directory | 13:48 |
| TJ- | xshell: "force-confdef" = "force config default" "force-confold" = "force old (existing) config | 13:48 |

| alkisg | TJ-: you think this is an "out of space" issue? It doesn't seem so... slipttees, what's the output of `df -h | nc termbin.com 9999` ? | 13:51 |
| TJ- | alkisg: not this one in particular, but I wouldn't be surprised, but already seen several due to the PTI releases :) | 13:52 |

| zamba | what does the output of systemctl status <unit> mean? | 13:55 |
| zamba | for CPU and Memory? is that the total amount of memory it's currently consuming? | 13:55 |
| zamba | or a tally? | 13:55 |
| alkisg | TJ-: there's a FRAMEBUFFER=y that needs to be removed somewhere in the initramfs-hooks or scripts... | 13:55 |
| TJ- | alkisg: plymouth is hooked into all input during initrd processing now | 13:55 |
| alkisg | TJ-: I tried that on 16.04, I don't know about newer releases | 13:55 |
| TJ- | alkisg: the main issue I was dealing with was no need to have almost every kernel module copied into the initrd, only the ones required to boot | 13:56 |
| slipttees | alkisg: http://termbin.com/7blf | 13:57 |
| alkisg | TJ-: I was trying to boot with as little ram as possible. The default needed 160 mb ram, I think I got it down to 48... | 13:57 |
| alkisg | :) | 13:57 |
| TJ- | alkisg: ahhh, the good old days! | 13:57 |
| alkisg | Thin clients can run well with e.g. 128 mb ram, but the default initramfs doesn't fit there :D | 13:58 |

| raub | TJ-: Oops. Not yet. I was hoping it would fail gracefully. Lemme blow it up | 14:15 |

| Caribou | EriC^^: thanks, I'll look at this | 14:26 |

| EriC^^ | Caribou: no problem | 14:28 |
| raub | Is it me or in line 12 the ifdown deleted br0? | 14:28 |
| slipttees | alkisg: how fix it? | 14:29 |
| TJ- | raub: aha! You seem to have the ubuntu/canonical 'fan' installed | 14:29 |
| raub | What is it? Sounds like fan controller thingie? | 14:29 |
| raub | I used something else in centos | 14:30 |
| TJ- | raub: It's a Caonical designed fan-out network structure | 14:30 |
| raub | Oh | 14:30 |
| raub | I don't need it. Don't know how it got installed. | 14:30 |
| alkisg | slipttees: I haven't fixed it, grub-probe still fails, I only hide it for a while for apt to work | 14:31 |
| raub | But, I see that could be the bad guy here | 14:31 |
| TJ- | raub: But, it looks like that system has /etc/network/if-uo.d/ubuntu-fan script installed but not the binary /usr/sbin/fanctl | 14:31 |
| TJ- | raub: hang on, let me check which package provide those | 14:31 |
| TJ- | raub: right, both are installed by "ubuntu-fan" but it seems you've removed/damaged /usr/sbin/fanctl. Check if it exists and is executable | 14:32 |
| TJ- | raub: failing that "sudo apt --reinstall install ubuntu-fan" | 14:33 |
| raub | TJ-: dpkg -s /etc/network/if-up.d/ubuntu-fan does not like me | 14:33 |
| raub | Ah, wrong S: ubuntu-fan: /etc/network/if-up.d/ubuntu-fan | 14:34 |
| alkisg | slipttees, TJ-, everyone: so, the problem is that `grub-probe --target=fs /boot/grub` returns "error: not a directory", even after reinstalling grub, or even if trying with / instead of /boot/grub | 14:34 |
| raub | TJ-: You type faster than me ;) | 14:35 |
| alkisg | slipttees: hm, although, with /home, it works; it sounds like something's wrong with your / | 14:35 |
| TJ- | alkisg: is /boot/ a separate FS? | 14:35 |
| alkisg | No, just / and /home | 14:35 |
| alkisg | ...and swap | 14:36 |
| TJ- | alkisg: is there an ACL set on /boot/grub/ | 14:36 |
| TJ- | alkisg: assuming /boot/grub/ is generally readable/writeable ? | 14:36 |
| raub | TJ-, zomaar_: much happier now. So ubuntu-fan was the guilty party | 14:36 |
| alkisg | TJ-: it fails with any dir under /, e.g. /tmp | 14:36 |
| TJ- | raub: indeed, the verbose logging is a life-saver sometimes | 14:36 |
| alkisg | TJ-: e.g. mkdir /test; grub-probe --target=fs /test => fails | 14:37 |
| TJ- | alkisg: so broken file-system metadata... did someone "dd of=/dev/sda5 ..." by mistake I wonder | 14:37 |
| raub | I do agree. And as a bit of a snide, that is one thing I do wish at time windows had | 14:37 |
| alkisg | slipttees: do you have a live cd to boot from, and fsck your /? | 14:37 |
| slipttees | alkisg: yes. | 14:38 |
| TJ- | raub: it was a big reason for me dropping Windows entirely in 2004, that plus no access to source to be able to fix bugs | 14:38 |
| slipttees | alkisg: wrong install? | 14:39 |
| TJ- | alkisg: anything in dmseg / kern.log ? | 14:39 |
| TJ- | alkisg: if the FS mounted without issue and kernel doesn't show I/O errors something overwrote the FS metadata/superblocks at some point, it would seem | 14:40 |
| raub | TJ-: I wish I could do that at my current work, but they sure like Windows. At least I can run Linux here and there | 14:41 |
| raub | I wonder if I need to restar all the guests and/or libvirt | 14:41 |
| alkisg | TJ-: nothing that I can see. termbin.com/srpo | 14:42 |
| TJ- | raub: not sure on that one. Were they using br0 ? I didn't see any other virtual eth devices attached | 14:42 |
| alkisg | slipttees: I think you should use the live cd :/ | 14:42 |
| raub | TJ-: Yep | 14:42 |
| slipttees | alkisg: yes... now | 14:43 |
| raub | let me first see what systemctl tells me | 14:43 |
| TJ- | alkisg: possibly kill-inducing test: "mount -o remount,rw /" - does it choke on that? | 14:43 |
| alkisg | He restarted | 14:43 |
| slipttees | alkisg: fsck /? | 14:43 |
| alkisg | slipttees: from the live cd you would start with sudo fsck /dev/sda5 | 14:44 |
| alkisg | fsck -f /dev/sda5 | 14:44 |
| slipttees | alkisg: okay man | 14:44 |
| TJ- | alkisg: what's with the 4 zram nodes being created? | 14:44 |

| V7 | How to check which command, i.e. kill uses which package ? | 14:58 |
| V7 | I.e. ls or cut, cat are from coreutils, but what about kill or ifconfig ? | 14:58 |
| geirha | kill is a shell builtin | 14:58 |
| V7 | geirha: So how then check if kill command exists ? | 14:59 |
| Pici | V7: dpkg -S $(which cut) or if you don't have the package installed look at apt-file (you'll need to install it from the repos) | 14:59 |
| geirha | V7: As it's a builtin, it will always exist | 14:59 |
| V7 | geirha: you're 1000% sure that it always exist ? | 15:00 |
| hggdh | actually kill is procps | 15:00 |
| geirha | V7: no, I'm 100% sure. The other 0.001% is when the user is doing something extremely weird, like disabling the kill builtin. There's no point in guarding against such actions though | 15:01 |
| geirha | hggdh: yes, there's also an external kill command | 15:01 |
| V7 | geirha: So in case of this point it's should be checked | 15:01 |
| V7 | Isn't it ? | 15:01 |
| geirha | V7: Use the type command at the start of your script, with a list of all the commands your script requires. E.g. type curl jq recode >/dev/null || exit | 15:01 |
| geirha | V7: Well, if someone has gone to the extreme length of disabling a builtin, they might have disabled the builtins you need to check if kill exists too ... you can't win that fight, and there's no point in being that thorough | 15:02 |
| V7 | )) | 15:03 |
| V7 | Thank you geirha very much | 15:03 |
| geirha | but if it makes you feel better, you can add it to your list of commands for the type builtin to check | 15:03 |
| V7 | very much geirha * | 15:03 |
| geirha | There's also not much point in checking the existance of standard commands like cut and cat; I generally only check for the non-standard commands my script requires | 15:04 |

| coffeeguy | !kpti | 15:27 |
| ubottu | Meltdown is a security issue with (primarily) Intel processors. It's mitigated by kernel patches named KPTI. Ubuntu released them in security updates for 14.04, 16.04, and 17.10. 17.04 will not receive this update. 18.04 will ship with kernel 4.15, which is patched already. 16.04 has updates for Linux 4.4 (release) and 4.13 (HWE), installs with 4.10 should upgrade to 4.13. See also !spectre, !nopti | 15:27 |
| === sgautam is now known as GautamS | ||
| caudi | !nopti | 15:27 |
| ubottu | KPTI is a mitigation for the !Meltdown security issue. With some workloads on some processors, KPTI has a significant performance impact. KPTI can be disabled by adding "nopti" to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line in /etc/default/grub. This should only be done if absolutely necessary because it will disable protections against Meltdown and thus allow any malicious user process to read memory and probably escalate to root. | 15:27 |

| akik | esch: they're set in /etc/modprobe.d | 17:06 |
| qwip | By mistake while being in su (root) mode in /root/etc/ I issued the command rmdir * | 17:07 |
| esch | so load module via modprobe then go to /etc/modprobe.d and set? | 17:07 |
| akik | esch: e.g. create e1000e.conf and put in there "options e10001 ..." | 17:07 |
| esch | ah | 17:07 |

| esch | I've never used modprobe before so I'm sort of blind here | 17:41 |
| TJ- | esch: you've got some bad entries in the config file you're created | 17:41 |
| esch | where would this config file be? | 17:41 |
| esch | it's not in modprobe.d | 17:42 |

| === SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_Afk | ||

| esch | installed meaning initial operating system install | 17:44 |
| TJ- | esch: did you edit /etc/modprobe.conf adding the entries they show under "Configuring the Driver on Different Distributions"? Because your photo shows errors that indicate it is finding those 2 'alias' and 1 'options' line | 17:45 |
| esch | there is no /etc/modprobe.conf | 17:45 |
| TJ- | esch: search with "sudo grep -n 'alias eth0' /etc/" | 17:46 |
| esch | TJ-: grep doesn't like that, returns /etc/ is a directory | 17:47 |
| akik | TJ-: i told him to use /etc/modprobe.d/e1000e.conf | 17:48 |
| esch | akik: I did create that file and added alias eth0 e1000e but it generated an error and didn't do anything, and is probably what is causing some errors | 17:48 |

| lotuspsychje | hodor123456: when it boots? | 18:25 |
| TJ- | JonelethIrenicus: "apt-get --download-only install <package>" - packages will be in /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 18:25 |
| deadbum | TJ-: this is a cloud instance so I don't have access to an interactive grub menu | 18:25 |
| deadbum | from what I understand it's supposed to boot the top kernel from /boot/grub/grub.cfg? | 18:26 |
| kostkon | JonelethIrenicus, how did you install it | 18:26 |
| TJ- | deadbum: then presumably your provider has some way to configure the kernel to use | 18:26 |
| JonelethIrenicus | TJ-: thanks | 18:26 |
| JonelethIrenicus | kostkon: it is in the repos | 18:26 |
| deadbum | TJ-: considering I have hundreds to reboot into this new kernel filing a ticket for them to touch each one seems ill advised. Is there no way to specify the kernel to boot before rebooting? | 18:27 |
| deadbum | literally never encountered this before, normally I update a kernel package and that's that, it reboots into the newest one | 18:27 |
| JonelethIrenicus | TJ-: does that place the files into some directory? | 18:28 |
| kostkon | JonelethIrenicus, well, there's a better way, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-make | 18:28 |
| TJ- | JonelethIrenicus: as I said, /var/cache/apt/aarchives/ | 18:28 |
| kostkon | JonelethIrenicus, remove the one you've installed from the repos and use Ubuntu make to install the latest version of the sdk | 18:28 |
| JonelethIrenicus | TJ-: oh sorry didn't catch tthat | 18:29 |
| TJ- | deadbum: so you don't have any net-console access ? | 18:29 |
| JonelethIrenicus | kostkon: ok | 18:29 |
| deadbum | TJ-: correct, I can only reach it once it's booted and ssh is up. I could have the provider manually intervene but that won't work for hundreds of machines. | 18:29 |
| hodor123456 | lotuspsychje: It booted well,internet is working,but when I am trying 'ping google.com' or anything.It just saying 'Unknown host'.Where maybe the problem is? | 18:30 |
| TJ- | deadbum: what hypervisor is it, do you know? KVM maybe? I'm trying to think of explanations for what you're seeing | 18:30 |

| TJ- | deadbum: this article seems to deal with at including showing how to enable grub console: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/UserProvidedKernels.html | 18:33 |
| TJ- | deadbum: pay particular attention to the sentence "GRUB can fall back to another kernel in the event that the new kernel fails. " | 18:34 |
| deadbum | TJ-: ah ok. That is disconcerting considering this is the only LTS kernel that addresses meltdown/spectre. | 18:34 |
| deadbum | for 14.04 | 18:34 |
| TJ- | deadbum: we've had several iterations to fix bugs so far; you may have hit another. If you can identify it via enabling the GRUB console to collect evidence, join #ubuntu-kernel and report it as a bug too, it'll be acted on almost immediately | 18:35 |

| TJ- | jer: grub-install will install the GRUB EFI loader (/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi) and all it's own modules under /boot/grub/x86_64-efi/ - check the latter directory now, you should see a lot of *.mod (module) files | 18:55 |
| jer | TJ-, i do, i do not have ntldr.mod tho | 18:55 |
| TJ- | jer: ooooo nice bug you've found, I think. That file exists in the grub-pc (i386) BIOS package but not the grub-efi (x86_64-efi) EFI package | 18:58 |
| jer | ah | 18:58 |
| alkisg | I don't think you can load ntldr from efi | 18:58 |
| jer | so i guess my only option at the moment is to either figure out the chainloading paths, or switch boot priority in my bios? =] | 18:58 |
| alkisg | ntldr requires bios | 18:58 |
| jer | alkisg, oh? | 18:58 |
| alkisg | AFAIK, yes | 18:58 |
| TJ- | jer: presumably because with EFI the firmware should be loading Windows from its boot menu, not GRUB | 18:58 |
| jer | ok that makes sense | 18:58 |
| shazbotmcnasty | hey so i've got that smb share set up on ubuntu - sharing out a folder with installer files in it, but i cannot run them from a windows computer, it says that we don't have permission (from the destination computer) - how do I give everyone read/execute rights to everything in a folge | 18:59 |
| alkisg | you can load the windows efi loader, but not ntldr | 18:59 |
| shazbotmcnasty | folder ** | 18:59 |
| TJ- | jer: on EFI the motherboard maintains a list of OSes and where their boot-loaders are | 18:59 |
| TJ- | jer: so I guess there's a hot-key at boot to open the manual boot menu so you can select a non-default entry | 19:00 |
| TJ- | alkisg: so long since I messed with Windows! | 19:00 |
| jer | heh me too =] | 19:01 |
| jer | need to test some code on windows though, so... figured i should set this up properly instead of just switching in the bios every time | 19:01 |
| Radkos | hello can you please help me with info about shutting down ubuntu 14.04 with grace - I mean without SIGTERM the program but wait for it to close - like it was in earlier versions - 10.04 as I remember - there was a dconf option but I cant find it anymore | 19:01 |
| TJ- | jer: EFI does it properly now, not requiring boot loaders to do it, and preventing them over-writing each other | 19:02 |
| Radkos | The reason i'm asking is firefox being forced to close everytime I shutdown the computer without closing it first and on next firefox start it asks for recovering my tabs | 19:02 |
| TJ- | Radkos: how do you initiate the shutdown? | 19:03 |
| Radkos | I press the powerbutton once | 19:04 |
| Radkos | it asks for action and choose shutdown | 19:05 |
| Radkos | its like doing from the button in the upper right corner | 19:05 |
| TJ- | Radkos: so it is the GUI/DE/WM that is not behaving as you want it to | 19:05 |
| Radkos | yes | 19:05 |
| TJ- | Radkos: is it the default Unity desktop ? | 19:05 |
| Radkos | any ideas - its not just my system two others of my friends has the same issue - so it got to be a setting somewhere | 19:06 |
| Radkos | yes the default unity | 19:06 |
| Radkos | one of my friends upgraded from 12.04 - any chance something got messed up with settings from it? | 19:07 |
| TJ- | Radkos: I would have thought it should be sending SIGTERM to all applications it has launched before shutting down. If you send a SIGTERM to firefox manually from terminal does it exit correctly for you? | 19:07 |
| Radkos | let me check | 19:07 |
| kostkon | Radkos, here's the bug report, #1662281 | 19:11 |
| === shah^ is now known as hb^ | ||
| kostkon | hmm, Bug #1662281 | 19:11 |
| ubottu | bug 1662281 in gnome-session "Firefox shows post-crash page after reboot or logoff" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1662281 | 19:11 |
| Radkos | i've done kill -15 and it's incorectly closed | 19:12 |
| Radkos | it seems to be bug-related | 19:12 |
| Radkos | hm doesn anyone knows a workaround as I'm not able to find one | 19:14 |
| Radkos | or i have to close the browser every time before shutting down | 19:15 |
| DouglasK | Question... Ubuntu docs say one can share the desktop, but the option to share it isn't available as described in the docs. I do have vino installed per the docs. https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/sharing-desktop.html I'm running Ubuntu 17.10. Ideas? | 19:16 |
| kostkon | Radkos, you could try this https://askubuntu.com/a/451392/1651 | 19:16 |
| lotuspsychje_ | DouglasK: i see they added remmina to bionic, you could try that perhaps? | 19:16 |
| lotuspsychje_ | !info remmina | DouglasK | 19:17 |
| ubottu | DouglasK: remmina (source: remmina): remote desktop client for GNOME desktop environment. In component main, is optional. Version 1.1.2-4ubuntu1 (artful), package size 120 kB, installed size 392 kB | 19:17 |
| TJ- | Radkos: try starting firefox from the terminal in foreground then send the "pkill firefox" and see if anything is reported by firefox about why it is crashing. You can also use the "firefox --debug" to run it under a full debugger session | 19:18 |
| DouglasK | lotuspsychje_, I do have remmina and vino installed... I have the client to connect to a system... just not the ability to share my desktop. | 19:18 |
| EriC^^ | sudo apt-get update | 19:19 |
| alkisg | jer, sorry, I was afk; so, why would you want to load ntldr/bootmgr, which is for BIOS, instead of bootmgr.efi, which is for EFI? You cannot load windows in BIOS mode when you're using efi | 19:19 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Hey, how's it going? Is the issue still active/being worked on? | 19:20 |
| leftyfb | DouglasK: personally I use either x11vnc or teamviewer | 19:20 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: it's stalled, being unable to reliably reproduce it | 19:21 |
| DouglasK | leftyfb, I'll give x11vnc a look ... I avoid teamviewer as I do sometimes use remote access for work, and am not up for the licensing fee. | 19:21 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: So it's an abandoned issue? | 19:22 |
| jimb_ | DouglasK - Zoom.us has an excellent offering that works well with Ubuntu | 19:22 |
| alkisg | DouglasK: if you want a test, this is all you need to run to share you screen with me: x11vnc -connect srv1-dide.ioa.sch.gr | 19:23 |
| alkisg | DouglasK: that's what I use to support 1000+ schools | 19:23 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: I've got a separate issue that crashes the kernel and can't get anything done on that and I've pinpointed the cause in the code. ecryptfs is feeling like Abandonware | 19:23 |

| tombusby | Hi there, I've just updated to 18.04 and I'm stuck in a login loop | 19:24 |
| tombusby | trying some of the things online doesn't seem to work | 19:24 |
| Radkos | TJ-, it's not crashing actually | 19:24 |

| tombusby | ok | 19:24 |
| Radkos | with pkill it closes correctly 'kill -15 firefox is the one causing troubles I beleive being used by logout and shutdown script | 19:25 |
| TJ- | Radkos: they're the same thing SIGTERM is -15 | 19:25 |
| === jackNemrod_ is now known as jackNemrod | ||
| Radkos | yes i know but i get different results with them | 19:26 |
| Radkos | with pkill everyting is fine but with -15 is not | 19:26 |
| TJ- | Radkos: ooo, is it because with pkill it sends SIGTERM to *ALL* firefox processes, whereas with "kill -15 <pid>" you're only killing 1 process? | 19:26 |
| TJ- | Radkos: are you using a multi-process version of firefox? ( 1 process per tab kind of thing ) | 19:27 |
| Radkos | I have only one firefox process but yes maybe pkill is killing all forks of it - like WebContent - or whatever is called | 19:27 |
| TJ- | Radkos: that would make sense | 19:28 |
| DouglasK | alkisg, I tried, but it error'd out. | 19:28 |
| DouglasK | alkisg, I'll circle back to this in a bit... need to call a customer. | 19:28 |
| Radkos | It was 4 by default but I've changed it to 1 | 19:28 |
| Radkos | but no change | 19:28 |
| alkisg | DouglasK: sure, np, i may be afk for a while but I'll be back later. What was the error. | 19:28 |
| DouglasK | alkisg, I'll /msg it as it's four lines. | 19:29 |
| TJ- | Radkos: you're checking the process list for 'firefox' and all it's child processes (those that list the firefox PID as their PPID) ? | 19:29 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Oh, I see. So just to clear things up - the issue is not going to be solved right? | 19:29 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: I can't be sure but it seems like the devs behind ecryptfs have got bored and moved on to more exciting projects :p | 19:30 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Okay, that sucks, I had hopes for recovering my data sometime, but oh well. | 19:31 |
| Radkos | i believe kill just closses the main process | 19:31 |
| Radkos | with killall -15 the result is the same - session restore | 19:31 |
| Radkos | killall -15 firefox is what I've called | 19:31 |
| Radkos | is there a way to manipulate killing script on shutdown - logoff to use pkill instead of kill | 19:32 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: I know, it annoys me, but I've spent about a week trying to reproduce your scenario and cannot, I've produced all sorts of alternate broken dirs though! | 19:32 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: it doesn't give me much confidence in ecryptfs when something goes wrong; better switching to encrypted ext4 or zfs I think | 19:33 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Would having physicall access to the hard drive improve the situation? | 19:33 |
| fearfearfear | anyone know if you can install ubuntu onto imac? | 19:34 |
| TJ- | pizzaburger: It might, but it's a long shot. We pretty much covered all the bases with those marathon sessions | 19:34 |
| TJ- | !mac | fearfearfear | 19:34 |

| Ezriilc | Greets, ya'all. | 19:39 |
| === stygian is now known as arktvrvs | ||
| Ezriilc | I've got a noob question: Is there an LTS distro for Intel 64 bit? I only see "amd64". | 19:39 |
| arktvrvs | amd64 is the common 64 bit architecture.. unless you're looking for itanium? | 19:40 |
| Ezriilc | Oh? I didn't realize that. Huh... | 19:41 |
| Ezriilc | So, the standard 64 bit download is the one I want, yea? | 19:41 |
| arktvrvs | yes most likely | 19:41 |
| Ezriilc | I mean, the "amd64" LTS version is what I want? | 19:42 |
| Bashing-om | Ezriilc: AMD holds the patent on the 64 bit architecture is all. | 19:42 |
| Ezriilc | For an old Intel Core Duo... | 19:42 |
| pizzaburger | TJ-: Alright, I guess I'll finaly reinstall. Thanks for all the help, You're Awesome! | 19:42 |
| Ezriilc | Get OUT! Really? Dang, I've been out of the game for too long. | 19:42 |
| arktvrvs | amd sort of pioneered x86_64 | 19:42 |
| arktvrvs | intels 64bit venture was called itanium, and was kind of a flop | 19:42 |
| Ezriilc | Wow. So, all 64 bit chips use AMD's tech? | 19:43 |
| Ezriilc | I learn something new roughly every 3 days. | 19:43 |
| Ezriilc | Thanks very much for the lesson! Now I'm off to build an HTPC with Ubuntu. | 19:44 |
| TJ- | Ezriilc: I wish my life was that placid! | 19:44 |
| Ezriilc | Don't be so sure. hehe | 19:44 |
| Ezriilc | As you can tell, I'm a bit... out of touch. | 19:44 |
| arktvrvs | placid polecat | 19:45 |
| DexterF | Ezriilc, well, the 64bit extensions, yes. intel still brews a lot of functionality themselves, and until recently they outperformed AMD by far, that recently changed witht he advent of Ryzen (desktop) and Epyc (server), a 14nm chip desing by Jim Keller who designed the original Athlon back then. this fellow seems to be up on his game | 19:45 |
| DexterF | Ezriilc, but if you do not know any of this and your life goes ok your doing something right :D | 19:45 |
| Ezriilc | Oh, thanks for all that detail - very good service here. | 19:46 |
| BluesKaj | my old amd 5200+ still runs fine, just needed a ssd and more memory | 19:46 |
| Ezriilc | I do love AMD, and have for a long time, mosty cuz of price. My latest build has a Ryzen, and we like it very much. | 19:47 |
| BluesKaj | Ezriilc, nice :-) | 19:47 |
| Ezriilc | Thanks DexterF! | 19:47 |
| Ezriilc | and all of ya, of course. | 19:48 |
| DexterF | BluesKaj, I have such a museum here in case I need a test rig, too :D has a 10 year old asus m2n-e mobo and apart from a shot NIC PHY works a charm | 19:48 |
| Ezriilc | I guess I'll leave this channel open for when I need help with my HTPC build. | 19:48 |
| zomaar | Personally don't like how the whole motherboard landscape has changed with the APUs, but I like the Ryzens. | 19:48 |
| zomaar | m2n-e here | 19:48 |
| zomaar | haha | 19:48 |
| zomaar | terrible usb | 19:49 |
| Ezriilc | Yea, APUs are an odd bird to me as well, but I can see how they might fit a lot of applications. | 19:49 |
| DexterF | zomaar, bit hot on the bridge, but damn good board. I slammed in an Asus sata6g/usb3 card, all fine | 19:49 |
| BluesKaj | DexterF, yeah this HTPC is 9 yrs old now and still chugging away | 19:49 |
| zomaar | I don't know why I have usb issues; even with a usb3 card | 19:49 |
| zomaar | Most it it came down to a stick, not the botherboard an sich I guess, but I still cannot use any hub at a slight distance anymore | 19:50 |
| zomaar | Maybe I just need a cable with amplification | 19:50 |
| zomaar | Talking about 4-6 meters | 19:51 |
| zomaar | I have a powered hub that worked fine before most of the time | 19:51 |
| DexterF | Ezriilc, good choice for htpc builds for sure, though I don't know how good AMD+linux are these days regarding video playback. my htpc has done 7 years on intel sandy bridge like a charm (while everyone turns a bad eye to intel for thir gpu bits, but it works), generally thought the word is nvidia, especially if you need it do do funky things like odd framerates while sending the hdmi signal through a receiver. | 19:51 |
| zomaar | On a 4m extension cord, but everything fails to work in it now | 19:52 |
| zomaar | Meanwhile a 6m extended usb keyboard works fine | 19:52 |
| Ezriilc | My main box runs Winblows, the HTPC build is an Intel e4400. | 19:52 |
| TJ- | zomaar: keyboard uses 1.1 signalling, not 3.x | 19:52 |
| DexterF | zomaar, ubuntu? should be ok, but still in 2018 a lot of linux distros have weird usb stacks. (opensuse, I'm looking at you and your bug I reported in 2010 or so) | 19:52 |
| Ezriilc | Gotta have that DirectX for all da games. | 19:52 |
| zomaar | Another hub also fails on the same 4m cable | 19:52 |
| DexterF | 4m is a bit far though | 19:53 |
| zomaar | I guess | 19:53 |
| TJ- | zomaar: are you able to test alternate USB3 rated (long) cables? | 19:53 |
| zomaar | I am not really using USB 3 devices | 19:53 |
| zomaar | Only USB 2 | 19:53 |
| zomaar | E.g. a 3G stick | 19:54 |
| DexterF | usb3 is not lenght limited, if the signal goes through usb3 will flag ok. usb2 not. signal might silently degrade. | 19:54 |
| TJ- | I have a 7 metre extension to a ceiling-mounted projector | 19:54 |
| zomaar | Does that need usb3 controller? | 19:54 |
| DexterF | zomaar, yes | 19:55 |
| zomaar | And device I guess | 19:55 |
| BluesKaj | MPV player FTW on this pc , i don't bother with much else, just an outboard 1TB drive with all the media on it, and an nvidia card that feeds the TV ansd an m-audio spdif out to the receiver | 19:55 |
| zomaar | So it needs a USB 3 device too right? | 19:56 |
| DexterF | kodi. took me ages to get it set up this way but now is great. | 19:56 |
| DexterF | zomaar, hmm, yes. what you want is a repeater I geuss | 19:56 |
| zomaar | Yeah | 19:56 |
| BluesKaj | kodi works well, it's just too imposing | 19:56 |
| zomaar | That is easier than testing new hubs | 19:56 |
| Ezriilc | Kodi is what I plan to use. | 19:56 |
| zomaar | But a repeater after just 2m is a bit weird | 19:56 |
| DexterF | NFS question: I automount an nfs v4 server with systemd via fstab, now that server was not reachable and then came on again. | 19:56 |
| alkisg | DouglasK: your xorg appears problematic, maybe x2go or thin client or whatever, use x11vnc -noshm -connect srv1-dide.ioa.sch.gr | 19:57 |
| DexterF | but I cannot access the share anymore. what's the best method to get nfs back on track without a reboot? | 19:57 |
| Ezriilc | I'm not very familiar with KODI, but my user (bro) likes it. | 19:57 |
| trafaret | hi there | 19:57 |
| BluesKaj | Ezriilc, kodi's a good choice , there's no doubt | 19:57 |
| trafaret | I need your help guys | 19:57 |
| Ezriilc | oh good, thanks | 19:57 |
| DexterF | 16.04 LTS / http://www.happyassassin.net/2011/05/12/cute-systemd-trick-of-the-day-auto-mounting-remote-shares/ | 19:57 |
| DexterF | trafaret, you need to tell us what with | 19:58 |
| zomaar | DexterF: Do you mean stale handles? | 19:58 |
| trafaret | I have installed ubuntu but some feature I can't stand when you have two open terminals session it's hard to use Alt-Tab to switch | 19:58 |
| DexterF | zomaar, could be, could be nfs mapping, I'm lost. when I "ls" in /mnt it just stalls | 19:58 |
| trafaret | how to fast switching between terminals | 19:58 |
| trafaret | ? | 19:58 |
| zomaar | DexterF: Maybe use "soft" mount option | 19:58 |
| DexterF | odd enough, when I strace ls it writes it all in the write call | 19:58 |
| arktvrvs | disable f-keys in terminal options? | 19:58 |
| DexterF | zomaar, ? | 19:58 |
| zomaar | NFS does not timeout by default | 19:59 |
| zomaar | DexterF: NFS has "hard" and "soft" mount options | 19:59 |
| TJ- | trafaret: use a terminal multiplexer like 'tmux' | 19:59 |
| zomaar | Default is hard | 19:59 |
| zomaar | It will never timeout when the connection goes away | 19:59 |
| zomaar | That's why you have hanging ls to begin with | 20:00 |
| zomaar | It does this to ensure no data is ever lost | 20:00 |
| trafaret | TJ-: thanks for advice :) | 20:00 |
| zomaar | Weird thing is before I booted Ubuntu 16.04 on this motherboard (m2n-e) I could use a usb2 dvd writer on the hub on that cable on this motherboard | 20:03 |
| zomaar | After, I can no longer do so in both Windows and Ubuntu | 20:03 |
| DexterF | zomaar, it üis* possible that the VRM driving that port has deteriorated | 20:03 |
| DexterF | *is* | 20:03 |
| zomaar | In fact, I can only still do it on the usb 3 card now | 20:03 |
| zomaar | But no longer on the hub on the cable | 20:04 |
| DexterF | or the writer motor deteriorated and draws more power now. | 20:04 |
| zomaar | No it was a sudden break; after my first boot I was really in trouble | 20:04 |
| TJ- | zomaar: is the controller driver configured to to power-saving, we sometimes see issues due to that and have to disable it | 20:05 |
| zomaar | Also if I reboot from Windows the sd card that boots my Linux doesn't work | 20:05 |
| DexterF | TJ-, but across operating systems? | 20:05 |
| zomaar | TJ-: I don't know | 20:05 |
| TJ- | zomaar: that's an ACPI issue | 20:05 |
| DexterF | zomaar, superweird: ls stalls - "ls | tee" shows me the dir! | 20:06 |
| zomaar | And when I rebooted from Linux the first couple of times, all kinds of USB devices kept misbehaving in Windows | 20:06 |
| TJ- | DexterF: depends if there's a cold-boot between OSes or not; with warm boots sometimes the controller power settings can remain | 20:06 |
| DexterF | I noticed when i strace ls | pastebinit, the pastebin actually contains the folder ls | 20:06 |
| * DexterF is utterly puzzled | 20:06 | |
| TJ- | zomaar: sounds like you may benefit from: http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html | 20:06 |
| zomaar | DexterF: Really that's weird (and useful) | 20:06 |
| TJ- | designbybeck: why? you're feeding stdout to pastebinit :) | 20:07 |
| DexterF | zomaar, bash -c ls works, too oO | 20:07 |
| TJ- | ooops | 20:07 |
| TJ- | DexterF: why? you're feeding stdout to pastebinit :) | 20:07 |
| DexterF | TJ-, I fed strace to pastebinit | 20:07 |
| zomaar | That's your script :) | 20:08 |
| TJ- | DexterF: "strace ls" - ls output on stdout, strace output on stderr | 20:08 |
| designbybeck | hmm TJ- don't even remember what that was | 20:12 |
| TJ- | designbybeck: sorry, I tab-completed to you by mistake | 20:12 |
| schultza | what is the latest version supported by ubuntu? | 20:13 |
| schultza | er... of firefox | 20:13 |
| DexterF | TJ-, ok but what happens when I just ls? it then stalls | 20:13 |
| DexterF | and why cant I cd to /mnt/server | 20:14 |
| designbybeck | it happens TJ- ;) | 20:14 |
| ioria | DexterF, offline ? | 20:14 |
| === SimonNL_Afk is now known as SimonNL | ||
| TJ- | DexterF: now that I can't tell :) | 20:14 |
| leftyfb | schultza: the latest version | 20:14 |
| DexterF | ioria, nope, it was disconnected from the switch for a bit | 20:14 |
| ioria | offline | 20:15 |
| schultza | what is the latest version of firefox supported by ubuntu? | 20:15 |
| DexterF | zomaar, I restarted the nfs kernel server, still no good | 20:15 |
| leftyfb | schultza: the latest version | 20:15 |
| schultza | FF 57? | 20:15 |
| leftyfb | yep | 20:15 |
| schultza | Ok. I need to reimage my computer. | 20:15 |
| leftyfb | why is that? | 20:15 |
| schultza | um... because / is full and is at 100% | 20:16 |
| schultza | yet, i still have 411 GB available on the drive. | 20:16 |
| leftyfb | schultza: sounds like a problem we might be able to help solve | 20:16 |
| ioria | schultza, dh -H and df -i | 20:17 |
| schultza | I'm not sure / is on an LVM, hence the reimage. | 20:17 |
| leftyfb | why not grow the LVM? That's what LVM is for | 20:17 |
| zomaar_ | TJ-: Your script is a bit faulty, it shows the new grub.cfg before running update-grub ;-). | 20:17 |
| schultza | Don't worry about it. I need to update distros anyways. Got to see the new Unity/Gnome setup anyways. | 20:17 |
| BluesKaj | autoremove and autoclean usually helps | 20:17 |
| schultza | leftyfb: again, not sure if it is on an LVM in the first place. | 20:18 |
| zomaar_ | DexterF: Yeah the kernel... | 20:18 |
| zomaar_ | DexterF: I have had the same issues with CIFS and why I don't use autofs anymore | 20:18 |
| leftyfb | ioria: btw, I feel -h is closer to reality | 20:18 |
| leftyfb | ioria: it's also a safer bet | 20:18 |
| schultza | CIFS? | 20:18 |
| zomaar_ | Samba | 20:18 |
| leftyfb | that's a network filesystem | 20:19 |
| ioria | schultza, you don't know if you're using lvm or not ??? | 20:19 |
| zomaar_ | Just like NFS | 20:19 |
| ioria | leftyfb, yeah | 20:19 |
| schultza | I'm just used to SMB (samba) over CIFS. That's why CIFS gave me a question mark. | 20:19 |
| zomaar_ | autofs was a really nice solution | 20:21 |
| zomaar_ | now I am trying to use libpam-mount but it is not so good | 20:21 |
| zomaar_ | I would regularly have autofs that didn't work until I mounted the same (!) share on a different tree manually | 20:22 |
| DexterF | zomaar_, cock, I'll reboot... | 20:23 |
| ioria | finally | 20:23 |
| schultza | I have an HP computer, does the 17.10 image still have bios issues with HP? | 20:24 |
| ioria | schultza, why you think that ? | 20:24 |
| schultza | Known issues on the download page. | 20:24 |
| ioria | schultza, lenovo | 20:24 |
| DexterF | zomaar_, and works again. shit, would have loved to solve that one | 20:25 |
| schultza | Also, is there a way to convert a full Unity to the Unity + Gnome interface in 17.10? | 20:25 |
| Ezriilc | Greets again, ya'all. | 20:25 |
| ioria | schultza, please, state your issue | 20:26 |
| Ezriilc | Another noob question: Does the LTS .iso file support booting from a USB device? I'm using Win32DiskImager to "burn" it. | 20:26 |
| ioria | Ezriilc, try rufus | 20:26 |
| schultza | I'm probably going to install the 16.04 LTS release, but would like to experience the new Unity interface on Gnome UI from the 17.10 release. Is that possible? | 20:27 |
| Ezriilc | um... thanks, but won't Win32DiskImager do the trick? | 20:27 |
| ioria | Ezriilc, there is no new unity 'interface' | 20:27 |
| Ezriilc | hehe, wrong person. | 20:27 |
| schultza | ioria: that was suppose to be directed to me. | 20:27 |
| schultza | :) | 20:27 |
| schultza | thought they had a unity look in gnome? | 20:27 |
| ioria | schultza, sy, yes | 20:27 |
| ioria | Ezriilc, go with rufus, no surprise when booting | 20:28 |
| JustAPerson | Is there anyway to full screen a video (like youtube) to less than the whole monitor? I'm using a large 4K TV as a 4x1080p monitor setup | 20:28 |
| Ezriilc | I remember back in the day (random time ago), Win32diskImager would ask what type of bootable thingy I was creating, and let me choose the OS, such as Ubuntu or ... | 20:29 |
| jimb_ | Control+Alt+1 (1 from the numpad) | 20:29 |
| jimb_ | JustAPerson: Is that what you meant, or also remove the browser bits? | 20:29 |
| GivenToCode | this might be stupid. I build a custom package and renamed the version (1.0-local instead of just 1.0) and now when i try to install something that depends on this package it complains because it wants 1.0 and not 1.0-local | 20:29 |
| GivenToCode | is there anyway to rename the package so that apt thinks it has 1.0? | 20:30 |
| akik | my google search result links become light blue recently. anybody see this too? | 20:31 |
| akik | in firefox | 20:31 |
| ioria | GivenToCode, i'am not good at packaging, but debian has its strictly rules | 20:31 |
| nacc | GivenToCode: build it again with the corret version? | 20:31 |
| JustAPerson | jimb_: wait that's perfect. Might have to figure out an easier key combo | 20:32 |
| nacc | GivenToCode: allthough it's bad practice to 'fake' a version like that | 20:32 |
| ioria | akik, yeah | 20:32 |
| jimb_ | JustAPerson... Check out the various numpad combos. I use them quit a bit. | 20:32 |
| ioria | akik, it goes away: i clean cache and restart | 20:32 |
| akik | ioria: which cache? | 20:33 |
| ioria | akik, firefox , right ? | 20:33 |
| akik | ioria: yes | 20:33 |
| GivenToCode | nacc, yes I was hoping to avoid having to do that | 20:33 |
| ioria | akik, firefox , clean it | 20:33 |
| ioria | akik, history, i mean | 20:33 |
| akik | ioria: what do you mean? | 20:33 |
| ioria | akik, history - clean recent history | 20:34 |
| akik | ioria: didn't help. i'll try erasing the cached web content | 20:35 |
| ioria | akik, select all the item in 'clean history' | 20:35 |

| bipul | I am using 16.04 LTS, and i want to switch into runlevel 3 permanently.And after that take a Full backup of my system. Bashing-om | 20:58 |
| oerheks | higher runlevel just makes services available to users, it makes no sense to do that for backup. in contrary, you would need lower runlevel to do so. | 20:59 |
| Bashing-om | bipul: 3 runlevel3.target, "multi-user.target" as a grub boot parameter . | 21:00 |
| === jim_wyatt1 is now known as jim_wyatt | ||
| bipul | Bashing-om, Any documentation? | 21:00 |
| Bashing-om | bipul: ^^ as oerheks advises "you" will have to manage what servixes are started . | 21:01 |
| bipul | ok. | 21:01 |
| oerheks | man systemd.special https://askubuntu.com/a/788465 | 21:01 |
| TJ- | bipul: "man runlevel" explains how runlevels are obsolete and systemd's compatibilty layer | 21:02 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: Did you upgrade all the way to 16.04? | 21:05 |
| bipul | oerheks, For example? which runlevel you use ? | 21:05 |
| bipul | zomaar_, Yes. | 21:05 |
| zomaar_ | bipul So you want to go to single user runlevel? | 21:06 |
| bipul | I guess single user mode will be 1. No 3 and 5 | 21:06 |
| oerheks | bipul, why do you ask ?? singe user is runlevel 1.... | 21:06 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: There is only still "rescue" runlevel if you want that | 21:06 |
| bipul | 3 and 5 runlevel i would like to switch permanently. | 21:06 |
| tatertots | lol | 21:07 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: Check out systemctl --help, down below | 21:07 |
| bipul | ok. | 21:07 |
| zomaar_ | default mode is either multi-user or graphical, you can select that if you want | 21:08 |
| zomaar_ | ie. you can easily choose to make the default target something else | 21:08 |
| JustAPerson | jimb_: so I tried that in the unity window manager but restarted into unity (with xorg) and now the ctrl-alt-kp_1 doesn't seem to work. Any ideas? | 21:09 |
| bipul | oerheks, just want to assure my self, whether i am correct or wrong. | 21:09 |
| piranah | OK I must be missing something. Running Ubuntu 16.04 I have installed enlightenment but at the login screen there is no option to choose window manager ? All the screen shots online show a lil icon to click on mut its just not there ? | 21:09 |
| bipul | ok Thank you Bashing-om oerheks and zomaar_ | 21:09 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: Check also systemctl set-default | 21:10 |
| bipul | ok | 21:10 |
| piranah | Tried rebooting etc but the icon to select window manager just does not show up. Anyone else run into this or know howto fix it ? | 21:10 |
| akik | piranah: it's probably missing the .desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions | 21:11 |
| bipul | It says Too few arguments | 21:11 |
| piranah | akik, nope its there first thing I checked. | 21:11 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: So there is multi-user/graphical (runlevel 5), rescue (1), and that's about it | 21:11 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: systemctl set-default rescue.target | 21:11 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: or systemctl set-default multi-user.target | 21:12 |
| piranah | ubuntu.desktop and enlightenment.desktop both in that dir | 21:12 |
| bipul | ok | 21:13 |
| akik | piranah: do you see any errors in "journalctl -u sddm" ? | 21:13 |
| bipul | Thank you zomaar_ | 21:13 |
| zomaar_ | bipul: see man bootup | 21:13 |
| piranah | akik have not looked at that yet let me try :) | 21:13 |
| piranah | journalctl -u sddm shows -- No entries -- | 21:14 |
| akik | piranah: or is it lightdm? journalctl -u lightdm | 21:14 |
| piranah | OK that has a pile of erros | 21:15 |
| piranah | all of them look like PAM adding faulty module: pam_kwallet.so or sim | 21:15 |
| piranah | akik https://pastebin.com/v4XRWszF | 21:20 |
| akik | piranah: is the desktop environment selector empty or is it just the button is missing? | 21:22 |
| piranah | button is missing | 21:22 |
| lordcirth_work | So, there are tons of backup tools out there. We are currently using rdiff-backup, but at 1M files and several terabytes, it now takes over a week to run a weekly backup :P Anyone know good tools that can handle large scales? What about Borg? | 21:24 |
| leftyfb | run your weekly against your delta's (daily?). Not against a week ago | 21:25 |
| TJ- | piranah: what does this report? "grep -rn 'show-indicators' /etc/lightdm/ " | 21:26 |
| akik | piranah: did you check that the enlightenment desktop file has the correct startup command? i saw something that if you only have one desktop environment, it wouldn't show up, or if the session startup file is faulty | 21:26 |
| lordcirth_work | leftyfb, but then we have to create daily deltas, I don't see how that's faster | 21:27 |
| TJ- | piranah: it should include "~session" | 21:27 |
| raidghost | leftyfb: How do i force ubuntu to not randomly change devicenumber for ethernet card ? | 21:28 |
| piranah | hrmm TJ- im getting no results when I run that command. | 21:29 |
| TJ- | piranah: OK, should be using the defaults then | 21:29 |
| piranah | akik, I just followed the guide for installing enlightenment verbatim :) | 21:29 |
| akik | piranah: i'm using sddm so i don't have lightdm configs here (kubuntu) | 21:30 |
| oerheks | raidghost, it should no do that randomly, there has a recent change from eth0/1 to enp2s0 or so | 21:30 |
| raidghost | oerheks: It was enp03s0 and now it has changed to enp12s0 | 21:30 |
| raidghost | So i would like it to STOP changing. cause have to add new interface name in interfaces | 21:31 |
| oerheks | raidghost, on the same system ?? | 21:31 |
| raidghost | Yes | 21:31 |
| TJ- | piranah: it could be the system is missing icon themes | 21:31 |
| piranah | hrmm | 21:32 |
| oerheks | raidghost, never seen that before.. | 21:33 |
| raidghost | oerheks: i was close to reinstall before i figured out why i didnt catch up with ping on that system | 21:33 |
| raidghost | did check with lshw -C Network and then i figured out that the card had changed name | 21:34 |
| oerheks | raidghost, is it a pluggable device? | 21:34 |
| leftyfb | raidghost: udev rules | 21:34 |
| leftyfb | lordcirth_work: if you backup every night, the weekly will be a LOT shorter | 21:35 |
| lordcirth_work | leftyfb, If we backup every night, it will take several days to run each night's backup. That's the problem. | 21:35 |
| raidghost | oerheks: not pluggable, its on the mainboard | 21:35 |
| raidghost | leftyfb: no such command, udev rules | 21:36 |
| gordonjcp | lordcirth_work: incremental backups, maybe? | 21:36 |
| leftyfb | lordcirth_work: ok, then every other day | 21:36 |
| lordcirth_work | gordonjcp, these are incremental | 21:36 |
| gordonjcp | lordcirth_work: holy hell | 21:36 |
| gordonjcp | lordcirth_work: what are you doing that's generating 1TB of diffs every day? | 21:36 |
| piranah | well I give up for now lol | 21:36 |
| leftyfb | raidghost: https://askubuntu.com/questions/767786/changing-network-interfaces-name-ubuntu-16-04 | 21:37 |
| akik | piranah: maybe reinstall lightdm-gtk-greeter? | 21:37 |
| piranah | akik, ya I think I might give that a try | 21:37 |
| lordcirth_work | gordonjcp, it's not, it just takes ages to diff two ~25TB datasets over the network. Probably latency-bound. This is why I want a better backup tool. | 21:38 |
| piranah | This is a clean install of ubuntu worse case i'll just try bohdi linux ( ubuntu based ) as its packaged with enlightenment as the default | 21:38 |
| leftyfb | lordcirth_work: backup smaller portions asynchronously | 21:38 |
| lordcirth_work | leftyfb, hmm, maybe. | 21:40 |

| leftyfb | zomaar_: there are several options to prevent it. One of which I've already given to try | 21:43 |
| raidghost | zomaar_: So if example adding two tvtunercard pci-e | 21:44 |
| raidghost | Then it changes? | 21:44 |

| zomaar_ | leftyfb: What do you mean, udev? | 21:44 |

| timeless | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/SpectreAndMeltdown -- how often does this get updated? one of my systems just got a package for `linux-hwe` (not `linux-hwe-edge`) which appears to have the fix | 22:38 |
| Ben64 | timeless: the usn link is probably more updated | 22:42 |
| g105b | Hi guys! I'm running sshd and when a connection comes in I get the following messages before sshd dies: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26368620/ | 22:42 |
| timeless | please excuse my ignorance, which one is that? (the page i linked to has dozens of links w/ usn...) | 22:42 |
| timeless | g105b: line 15 No supported key exchange algorithms | 22:42 |
| timeless | is your remote server (insecure, broken) ssh1? | 22:43 |
| Ben64 | timeless: well, all of them, also the main usn.ubuntu.com/usn | 22:43 |
| g105b | timeless: how can I tell? It's just Ubuntu 16.04 | 22:44 |
| timeless | https://usn.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-3522-4/ <- Unfortunately, that update introduced a regression where a few systems failed to boot successfully. This update fixes the problem. | 22:44 |
| timeless | g105b: `echo | nc remote-host 22` | 22:44 |
| Romalio | hi | 22:46 |
| Romalio | my google chrome crashes _every_ time I open it | 22:46 |
| timeless | Ben64: https://usn.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-3522-2/ says "USN-3522-2: Linux (Xenial HWE) vulnerability" ... "A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:" "Ubuntu 14.04 LTS" | 22:46 |
| g105b | timeless: SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_7.2p2 Ubuntu-4ubuntu2.2 Protocol mismatch. | 22:46 |
| Romalio | but only since today | 22:46 |
| timeless | is "xenial" considered a derivative of 14.04 lts? | 22:46 |
| Ben64 | 14.04 is trusty, so no | 22:47 |
| timeless | Ben64: so just someone who failed to search+replace? | 22:47 |
| nacc | timeless: did you read that link? | 22:47 |
| nacc | timeless: it's referring to a package *for* 14.04 | 22:47 |
| nacc | timeless: perhaps you don't know what linux-lts-xenial is? | 22:47 |
| Romalio | https://dpaste.de/NW9M/raw | 22:51 |
| timeless | g105b: offhand, your keys are probably not readable by your user | 22:51 |
| Romalio | ^ google crashes - may I please ask for help? | 22:51 |
| Romalio | I meant, google chrome | 22:51 |
| timeless | g105b: https://serverfault.com/questions/158151/sshd-shuts-down-with-no-supported-key-exchange-algorithms-error has an example of someone hitting your error | 22:51 |
| timeless | are you trying to run sshd as a non root user or w/ a secondary config in a different place? | 22:51 |
| timeless | anyway, personally, i'd use `strace -s2048 -ff ...` on both the server and client | 22:51 |
| timeless | typically these things stick out w/ ENOENT or EACCES shortly before the failure | 22:51 |
| timeless | Ben64: anyway, thanks for the answers | 22:51 |
| * timeless wishes everyone luck | 22:51 | |
| g105b | timeless: I'm not sure what a host key is :/ | 22:51 |
| timeless | g105b: in most forms of two party cryptography, both parties have private keys | 22:52 |
| timeless | they publish public keys for their peers to know | 22:52 |
| g105b | timeless: does the server always have to have a key? | 22:52 |
| timeless | your server calls itself `host` | 22:52 |
| timeless | yes | 22:52 |
| timeless | when the client connects to the server, the server sends its public key which the client then uses as part of its encryption process as it talks to the server | 22:53 |
| g105b | Whenever I've installed openssh server before, I've just connected straight to it. Now the problem is that there are no /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*_key, it seems. | 22:53 |
| timeless | ssh-keygen is your friend | 22:53 |
| timeless | or something | 22:53 |
| g105b | timeless: ah yes I just found that I had to run it with -A for first setup. | 22:54 |
| g105b | New to me, but it works now. Thanks for helping me debug. | 22:54 |
| timeless | glad to be of service | 22:54 |
| * timeless really leaves | 22:55 | |
| Ezriilc | I just installed the latest LTS plus KODI from the Ubuntu Store on an old 2007 HP doorstop, and the entire process was absolutely flawless, as expected. Once again, Ubuntu FTW! | 22:58 |

| TheSov | can someone help me figure out why i cant use ubuntu on my pc? every time i have the install media inside it boots up shows me a neauvous error and then my sound card plays the bongos sound from X but i see only the error on screen | 23:03 |
| TheSov | I have a gtx970 and an asus rog hero 3 | 23:03 |
| xz | hi there I have Ubuntu 12.04.5 that I would love to upgrade to 16.04. However somebody messed up a python install on it, e.g. /usr/bin/python doesn't exist. What can I do to fix python first before I move onto updating OS? | 23:03 |
| nacc | xz: are you paying for ESM? | 23:04 |
| nacc | xz: if not, you're not supported, and have to do an EOL upgrade anyways, might as well reinstall, tbh | 23:04 |
| nacc | xz: if you are, then ... well, you have support from canonical | 23:05 |
| xz | nacc is ESM some sort of paid support? | 23:05 |
| nacc | xz: yes | 23:05 |
| xz | nacc nope, we don't have it | 23:05 |
| xz | nacc the problem with reinstalling it is that the machine is configured for many things already, so it will come costly to start from scratch | 23:05 |
| nacc | xz: ok, then unsupported. you can try and reinstall python or whatever | 23:05 |
| nacc | xz: the likelihood of a 12.04->16.04 upgrade going smooothly, if you've done stuff like remove python, seems low | 23:05 |
| xz | nacc can python2.7 be uninstalled on Ubuntu (any version) | 23:06 |
| nacc | xz: i mean, you *can* do whatever you want as root. Should it be, no? | 23:06 |
| nacc | rather, Should it be? no. | 23:06 |
| xz | nacc yes, but apt-get itself might be using python 2.7 | 23:07 |
| nacc | xz: apt-get doesn't use python, afaik. | 23:08 |
| nacc | xz: and if it did, and it needed python2.7, then when you removed python2.7 (which you haven't said you did, you said the binary wasn't there), then it would have removed apt-get | 23:08 |
| xz | nacc the problem is person who messed up was moving binaries between /usr/bin and /bin | 23:12 |
| xz | apt-get still works | 23:12 |
| xz | ppl on the internet suggest doing apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop | 23:12 |
| xz | I think it's a server version though, is there matching package for ubuntu-server? | 23:12 |
| xz | ubuntu-standard maybe? so I could try apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-standard | 23:15 |
| martinh_ | Hi! The re-release of 17.10 was announced for today, but nothing has happened. Does anybody know something about it? I'd like to set up some laptops this evening... | 23:16 |
| acheronuk | martinh_: a member of the release team said earlier in there channel that it would likely be out late afternoon their time (UTC-7 I think(, so that possibly puts it in the next 3-4 hrs | 23:22 |
| martinh_ | ok, I'm in UTC+1 ;-) Thanks! | 23:23 |
| nacc | xz: there is ... no reason that an admin should be moving binaries between usr and usr/bin | 23:24 |
| nacc | xz: 1) have you revoked their admin privs? | 23:25 |
| nacc | xz: err /usr/bin and /bin | 23:25 |
| nacc | xz: you can probably reinstall the python package. but who knows what else this person broke. | 23:25 |
| xz | nacc I'm in a joke project | 23:25 |
| nacc | xz: honestly, safest route is backups and reinstall | 23:25 |
| xz | nacc I would want to download python that can be installed with dpkg, then apt-get remove python and install the one with dpkg | 23:26 |
| nacc | xz: otherwise you'd have to do an eol upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 first anyways -- so timewise also faster, honestly (since you should do backups before any release upgrade anyways) | 23:26 |
| xz | nacc than apt-get update everything and update OS | 23:26 |
| nacc | xz: ... why? | 23:26 |
| nacc | xz: sorry, I don't think I can help you | 23:26 |
| xz | nacc ok, thanks for your time | 23:26 |
| Bashing-om | !nomodeset | TheSov Try this : | 23:30 |
| ubottu | TheSov Try this :: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 23:30 |
| TheSov | Bashing-om, After i install will i still need that? | 23:32 |
| sw0rdy | hey guys I didn't install the 3rd party multimedia (codec and stuff) packages during format, how do I install them now, anyone know a tutorial or so | 23:35 |
| sw0rdy | I only thought of it now because I need flash, is installing flashplugin-installer just enough? | 23:37 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: do you just need to play swf files, or do you need them to run in the browser? | 23:38 |
| sw0rdy | I need to play video content on firefox/chromium | 23:38 |
| sw0rdy | skiboy: ^ | 23:38 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: flashplugin-installer s what you need then | 23:38 |
| Bashing-om | TheSov: Once instaled then install the nvidia proprietary driver . | 23:39 |
| partitionmess | i've got myself into a bit of a partition mess here. I'm dual booting windows 10 with ubuntu 17.10. The ubuntu partition won't boot so I want to remove it but I'm not sure how to identify which partition to delete. Anyone able to help me figure out which partitions are needed by windows and which are not? | 23:39 |
| sw0rdy | I tried to install html5 h.264 but I read on askbuntu that it actually uses more cpu power than flash (to my surprise because I wanted it instead of flash thinking it uses LESS cpu power) | 23:39 |
| TheSov | so long story short i have a shitty video card eh? looks like im gonna be buying vega sooner than i though | 23:39 |
| sw0rdy | skiboy: sorry again^ | 23:40 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: h.264 support in browsers should be come by default | 23:40 |
| sw0rdy | I see. | 23:40 |
| Bashing-om | TheSov: Not at all . just that nouveau can not support that card. where as the proprietary driver does . | 23:41 |
| TheSov | last question, how do I do the nomodeset | 23:41 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: h.264 is a W3C standard for some baffling reason | 23:42 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: so is h.265, which should be phased out as soon as people adopt AV1 | 23:42 |
| Bashing-om | TheSov: U also ran into that issue on a new generation nvidia card in 14.04 where the kernel could not match the card to a driver . | 23:43 |
| Bashing-om | U/I* | 23:43 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: Unsurprisingly, people don't like it when they tell you that you can use their codec for free for a while, and will then spring surprise license fees on them | 23:43 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: Hence, AV1 | 23:44 |
| partitionmess | https://ibb.co/dBpTHR | 23:44 |
| sw0rdy | skiboy: was it W3C that did that? | 23:45 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: No, that's MPEG-LA | 23:45 |
| partitionmess | ^ screen shot of the current partitions on my machine | 23:45 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: It's a patent pool dedicated to milking as much money from people as possible, for something that should be free in the first place | 23:46 |
| Guiri | I made a bad sshd_config change and did a try-restart. I think I'm locked out of my Ubuntu box on AWS. I'm not sure what to do | 23:46 |
| sw0rdy | skiboy: can HEVC come into play here? | 23:47 |
| Bashing-om | partitionmess: To Windows, there is no other operating system in the world. does not recognize a linuz paeririon. Biit a live ubuntu usb to a terminal and exexute ' sudo parted -l ' . you will see the ubuntu partition(s) - ext4 - . | 23:48 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: The only way we got h.265 support in Firefox is through the plugin made by Cisco. They paid the license fees, and we can view the source code and use the program under the condition that we don't change the code, because we would have to pay license fees then | 23:49 |
| Bashing-om | partition Boot a live * | 23:49 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: HEVC is h.265 | 23:49 |
| partitionmess | ok i'll give that a try, thanks | 23:50 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: And AV1 has been shown to be superior. It will be completely open, and h.265 will fade into irrelevance. | 23:50 |
| Bashing-om | partitionmess: If ya get stuck. we are here to help . | 23:51 |
| TheSov | ok im gonna try install this now | 23:54 |
| TheSov | how do i make command changes | 23:54 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: Though h.264 should be easy to decode. I don't see why flash would be needed | 23:55 |
| michael2 | hi, can anyone please point me to documentation which explains how the hashing process is used with dpkg and apt? | 23:56 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: Even if it wasn't, I would rather have the extra CPU cycles than a huge security risk | 23:56 |
| michael2 | i.e. does the developer hash the source? then add that to the packages entry in the package.gz for that pocket? etc | 23:57 |
| Bashing-om | TheSov: Sorry. context of " how do i make command changes " ?? | 23:57 |
| skiboy | sw0rdy: Firefox should be using VA-API or VDPAU for video decoding | 23:58 |
