EldonMcGuinnessJust spent the better part of a day trying to figure out why Virtualbox kept freezing up my host box when starting a VM. Come to find out it is a clash between Virtualbox's lack of an update in the repos and the 4.13 kernel. I would think something like that would have had a post or something telling people. :/02:14

lotuspsychjeducking: and start the screen recorder from terminal to catch errors, you can add to the bug06:00
duckinglotuspsychje, what screen recorder is used? It's just a hotkey.06:03
lotuspsychjeducking: your recording 1 pic, or record a video of your desktop?06:04

Rodenhis is a re-post from #ubuntu-cn which seems to be inactive and ##linux where nobody seems to have a solution.  On Ubuntu-Mate 16.04, I am unable to find a WUBI Chinese input method that works as a normal Chinese input method should07:03
RodenWUBI is the most popular input method for Chinese people.  So, I think there must be a solution.  ibus only allows the user to select individual characters (sometimes there are hundreds, and it is very time-consuming to use this archaic input method)... and the built-in method is the same.07:04
SilveringHi everyone! I installed ubuntu 16.04 LTS server and configured an openvpn + firewall. My goal is to avoid (to start) external connections without using VPN. Now I can use my phone to make an ssh connection with the server in 4G, without VPN working. I want to avoid that. Any idea ? I hope I'm clear..07:05
RodenSilvering, wouldn't you need a method for identifying whether or not the connecting user is on a vpn?07:08
RodenAlso, Silvering, should you ask yourself if there's a more reasonable way to accomplish whatever you're trying to accomplish behind this?07:09
badboyjerhey guys im back!!07:12
Silvering@Roden : I explain you my goal. I building a house. Everything will be manage or control via homekit devices. I want to enforce the security. In other words, when I'm out of my house and I want to close my shutters I want to be able to communicate with my house using vpn.07:13
=== ubuntu-mate is now known as user2314
Silvering@Roden : This means that if I'm at friends, connected with their wifi, I can't do this. If I activate the vpn on my phone, now yes I can07:14
Silvering@Roden : I'm looking for the conf to do that because everything else is working just perfect07:14
poiqweHi, I'm running Ubuntu Server and have a user who's ssh login defaults to screen "HEY! USE SCREEN". screen bash takes me to where I need to be but how do I mod this users account to default to a bash session?07:16
RodenAre other people using your device, though, Silvering?  Because you could use a special key to identify your device, or example....07:16
RodenOr you could do it on the phone side: drop the interent if your vpn fails07:16
Silveringmy device will be use only by me07:18

nerdinjai truely struggle understanding file permissions n such, anybody willing to point me in the right direction assigning permissions to my wordpress directory? i have no idea what i'm doing08:36
sumyunsealstop being such a nerd08:37
Flannelnerdinja: You'll probably need to ask wordpress people about what the permissions are supposed to be (although world readable and nothing else is /usually/ OK for the files, and read+execute for the directories).  I'm not a wordpress person.08:38
V7Hey all08:38
Flannelnerdinja: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions08:38
Flannelnerdinja: That webpage will walk you through understanding what's what and how permissions work.08:38
V7So after installing some app and configured this app to run via specified user then to permit this app use root's files we need to add app's user to root's group08:39
V7Is it right ?08:39
nerdinjayeah i've seen this before, i know it's shameful but i still don't fully grasp the permissions setup "desired" by a wordpress install08:39
nerdinjai was tinkering trying to give permission to install a few plugins through dashboard now i'm locked out of even opening the site at all08:40
nerdinjaD:08:40

nerdinjaFlannel: i don't know much but i know not to do that08:41
nerdinjapretty much ever08:41
duckingnerdinja, tbh if you messed with the permissions heavily, saving your config files and restarting would probably be easiest if you haven't done much... dare I ask if you have a backup?08:43
V7So after intalling spamassassin and letting it to run via custom "spamd" user and if're getting and error like "status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: sendmail: fatal: open /etc/postfix/main.cf: Permission denied )" so we need to add spamd user to root's group ? 08:45

duckingnerdinja, if it's just testing, have at it, just remember that they won't play the same if you develop in that permissioned environment :^)08:50

nerdinjapermissions make my brain hurt, no idea why. mental block or something.08:51

ViktorCool, I have already made the installation and I have both Ubuntu 17.10 and Windows 10 installed, but Im having troubles booting them using the same BIOS settings11:11
cfhowlett!uefi11:12
ubottuUEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI11:12
cfhowlettI suspect your issue might be uefi but someone with more experience should speak up11:12
ViktorRight now I can start Windows 10 if I use the UEFI boot manager and have SATA operation set to RAID on, but then I cant boot ubuntu. If I instead use SATA operation set to AHCI I can boot Ubuntu perfectly fine using grub but cant boot Windows (It gets stuck in bitlocker recovery)11:13
ViktorSo my current situation is I have to switch between SATA operation modes to be able to switch between the OS's11:14
ViktorAnyone know somewhere I can get help with this particular problem?11:15
ViktorI would make a forum post but the forums seems to be down11:15
ducasseViktor: you are right, the bios typically needs to be set to ahci for ubuntu to work, raid mode won't11:17
ViktorSo there is noway around having to switch between these modes to boot?11:17
ViktorShouldnt Windows be able to work with ahci?11:18
ducasseyes, but i don't know if it has to be installed in that mode or if you can switch it11:19
ViktorOh ok, I got Windows preinstalled11:20
ViktorBut  I guess they used the RAID option11:20
ducassevery likely, i get the impression they often do that11:21
ducassei would ask in ##windows if anyone knows how to change it without reinstalling windows11:22
ViktorSo I need to use UEFI boot manager and SATA operation set to RAID to boot windows, and GRUB with SATA operation set to AHCI to boot Ubuntu unless I can switch Windows to work with AHCI instead of RAID, correct?11:23
ducasseyep, that's about right11:23
ViktorAlright, thank you11:23

calogeroHi all15:30
existenzhey, how do i update mariadb from 10.0 to latest? i get this when i try to update: This installation of MySQL is already upgraded to 10.0.33-MariaDB15:32
Walexmd84: well it turns out that Pango will use unconditionally any ligatures that a font has, so your only option is to edit the fontfile you are using to remove them (property "liga" I think).15:32
md84thanks Walex. i'll look into fontfile editing.15:33
tomreynexistenz: there's no package by the name of "mariadb" in ubuntu, maybe you're using a third party repository?15:33

victorbjelkholmhey people, I'm having a disturbing issue that I can't seem to fix. I'm trying to figure out why my mouse cursor lags when switching tabs in a browser (chrome or firefox) and between windows in awesomewm sometimes. I've tried everything I could figure out to try, like switching cables between the monitor, different resoltuions, different nvidia/nouveau drivers, different kernel version and now I'm stuck, I16:20
victorbjelkholmstill have the same issue. I did not have this issue on 16.04 but happened when I did a fresh install for 17.10. I have a nvidia gtx 1080ti and i7-7700K CPU so doesn't feel like I should hit any bottlenecks when just switching tabs.... It seems to be related to something with the GPU, as switching tabs gives me the lag but doing a lot of work for the CPU doesn't affect it. Can someone guide me to troubleshoot16:20

KrisWoodHello everyone. I'm trying to get SSH working on my ubuntu machine for remote connections so I can fiddle with it while I'm out and about. I can connect to it just fine on the local network, and I've got port forwarding set up, but when I try to connect from an external network I get a "Connection Refused" error. How can I troubleshoot this?18:15
tomreynKrisWood: does the computer you run ssh on have a public ip address?18:16
tomreynKrisWood: sorry, that's irrelevant if you have port forwarding setup properly.18:17
KrisWoodtomreyn, no, the public IP is on the router, which has port forwarding set up to one of the ports on the ubuntu machine18:17
tomreynKrisWood: my guess is that you haven't though. watch /var/log/auth.log while you try to connect18:17
KrisWoodok18:18
KrisWoodNothing hits the auth log18:19
KrisWoodlast thing in there is connecting via ssh on the local network18:20
tomreynKrisWood: you can also test this with netcat to simplify the test case. stop the ssh server, then run: "sudo nc -vvl PORT", replacing 'PORT' by the port your ssh server listens on (22 by default). then on the remote system / the system going through port forwarding, run "nc -vv YOURPUBLICIPADDRESS YOURPUBLICFORWARDEDPORT" - and replace those upper case strings accordingly.18:20
tomreynKrisWood: also in case you are testing from within the same network you need to be aware that there are routers which won't let you connect to the internet and back into the lan via port forwarding.18:21
tomreynso be sure to test from outside / use a proxy / shell running remotely.18:21
KrisWoodnc: Address already in use18:22
tomreynyou didnt stop the sshd then or something else is still running there18:22

rs3Hello...installing Ubuntu 17.10 desktop and though I installed in UEFI mode and created an EFI system partition, my laptop does not see the efiboot entry. I can avoid this by letting Ubuntu partition itself, but I fear I must be missing something when doing my own partitioning scheme in the installer. Any suggestions? Thanks!18:40
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: one for you mate ^18:40

rs3strive: Yes, UEFI and BIOS switchable. Currently running UEFI with Legacy Oproms disabled18:44

strivers3: Is this a duel-boot with Windows or JUST Ubuntu?18:45
strivedual*18:45
rs3My hunch is that there is a command besides update-grub that needs to be executed. (After mounting the installed partitions and chrooting into my install, I can run update-grub successfully...but I don't know what step is missing to register that efi boot stub)18:45
rs3strive: Just Ubuntu18:45
Imratrojanhello18:46
strivers3: What tool did you use to create these partitions?18:46
rs3strive: Ubiquity. When going through the install process, I elected to create my own partitions. I have two disks and had a somewhat specific arrangement in mind, which is why I went this route. Prior to running Ubiquity, I used the Disks utility to format the two disks, both GPT.18:47
striveOh.18:48
bee_realDoes anyone know the best way to do an in-place upgrade of 16.04 to the 18.04 nightly?18:48
rs3strive: The weird thing is...I can just tell Ubiquity to auto-partition and boom, everything will work fine. But then I have a monolithic / (no separate /home partition), a swap partition I don't want, &c...but it'll boot just fine, register the EFI boot stub, all that stuff. If I choose to do it my way, I can't seem to get it to boot; it does not show up as a boot option.18:49

ioriars3, sdb2 == boot  ?19:15

akikcalico: Section and EndSection at the start of the line21:10
TJ-Guest96: also, if "sudo tcpdump -ni <IF>" shows incoming packets but nothing outgoing, it's likely it's a well-known bug whereby on dual-boots the Windows network device-driver needs to have it's WoL settings disabled - it leaves the chipset in a state the Linux driver cannot 'undo'21:11
calicoakik, so save & reboot now?21:12

Guest96TJ- No, just booted a Ubuntu usb and started installing21:22
TJ-Guest96: Could you try that first and then come back if the problem persists? It's possible, if WoL is the issue, that will clear it21:23

akikcalico: i found this https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KDEMultimediaKeys21:23

calicoakik, I am following the guide. But I am getting lost here - keycode 161 = F14The keycode's should be the ones you wrote down earlier. The F key numbers should be numbered after those that are actually present on your keyboard (so if you have a standard windows keyboard, you would have 12, if you have a mac keyboard you will have 16 so start at 17).21:31
TJ-Guest96: Oh, that makes things easier! OK, let's check the WOL state. Identify the interface name first with "ip link show" and tell us what it is21:31
calicoWhat's the deal with the F keys, akik ?21:31
Guest96TJ- eno1? Is that it? Im quite new to Linux myself so ;)21:32
TJ-calico: The function keys on the keyboard go from F1 through F16, so for setting up new entries start with F1721:32
TJ-Guest96: that'll do  :) I can include in commands I give you then! now do "which ethtool" - tell me if a path is returned. If not, the tool isn't installed so we need to do something else21:33

Guest96TJ- wake is on g now after reboot21:44
TJ-Guest96: aha! It's definitely the issue I described! Do you have another system from which you can send the MagicPacket to see if that'll wake the interface?21:45
Guest96TJ- from this comp i guess, its windows tho21:46
TJ-Guest96: hmmm, you'll need to find a Windows tool to send it, and use "ip link show dev eno1" to get the MAC address to send to21:47
TJ-Guest96: Linux has "etherwake" tool for this21:48
TJ-Guest96: also, can you tell us the make/model of this PC as reported by "dmesg | grep DMI"21:49
Guest96TJ- Asus H87I-PLUS motherboard - https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/H87IPLUS/specifications/21:51
daddesioHey guys, it seems my laptop hard drive is failing. After about 1 hour, it BSODs, and when I restart it says "hard drive not found". I can flip the laptop upside-down/right-side up again and that fixes the issue for another hour, so it makes me think it's a connector issue.21:52
daddesioAnyway, I have backed up most important files but would like to clone the drive. I've heard Clonezilla and ddrescue are good.21:52
TJ-Guest96: OK, before we go further, let's try some other diagnosis in case it's not WoL causing this. Run this command and see it reports any packets. "sudo tcpdump -ni eno1"  (Ctrl+C to break out)21:54
Guest96TJ- "that device is not up"21:57
TJ-Guest96: hmm, try "sudo ip link set up dev eno1" then try the tcpdump again21:58
Guest96TJ- Now im getting something atleast22:01
TJ-Guest96: in tcpdump? Is it all incoming or do you see outgoing packets too?22:01
TJ-Guest96: what subnet is your LAN? We can try setting a static IP on the I/F22:02
Guest96TJ- no idea, just a wall of text for me22:02
tomreyndaddesio: if you expect physical issues, gddrescue is better than clonezilla.22:02
Guest96TJ- 255.255.255.022:03
daddesioI'm not sure I really expect any issues with the platter/head/etc. I *think* it's most likely just the SATA connector or possibly the hard drive circuit board or my motherboard dying.22:03
TJ-Guest96: that's only the mask :) the subnet is something like 192.18.1.0/24 (== 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0)22:03
raidghostdaddesio: how dying?22:03
raidghostGuest96: Uese a subnet calculator22:04
daddesioWhen I'm able to boot into Windows, everything appears to work for about 1 hour. Although I'm not sure if that's just because the hard drive head crashed.22:04
tomreyndaddesio: did you check S.M.A.R.T. data? not that it's overly reliable, but it can provide an indication.22:04
daddesioso like I said, the drive works for about 1 hour at a time until Windows (or Linux) working. On Windows, I'll get a BSOD after 2 minutes; on Linux, I'd see weird errors when I pull up Ctrl+Alt+F2.22:05
daddesioThen when I restart the laptop, it says "Hard drive not found". The issue resolves if I flip the laptop over (like I'm trying to remove the battery), or leave it unplugged for 5 minutes, etc.22:05
Guest96TJ- 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.25422:05
tomreyndaddesio: those 'weird errors' can also be seen when you run "dmesg -T" in a temrinal window. and you can post them to a pastebin if you want someone else to examine them22:06
daddesioI just copied over 20GB of stuff via SCP before it BSOD'd.22:06
joshteris this the right channel for assistance22:06
TJ-Guest96: OK, Ctrl+C that tcpdump then do "ip addr add 192.168.1.201/24 dev eno1"22:06
TJ-Guest96: then try to ping some existing IP address on the LAN, e.g. "ping -c 5  192.168.1.1"22:06
joshterusing 2-in-1 laptop-tablet. unable to drag/move or resize few windows like firefox, chromium and this irc chat when in tablet mode - touch screen22:08
tomreyndaddesio: if it reliably fails after a given time, this suggests it fails due to warming up. you may want to put it in a fridge before connecting it next time if you'll try to recover more data. but before you do this, be sure to rule out all the other possibilities which are not drive related (bad connector / cable / controller /mainboard)22:08
Guest96TJ- how to ctrl+c tcpdump=22:08
TJ-Guest96: just press Ctrl+C22:08
TJ-Guest96: I was assuming the previous 'tcpdump...' command was still running, so telling you how to stop it. If you already stopped it, ignore the instruction22:08
Guest96TJ- ah, okay, already stopped it22:09
daddesiotomreyn: Ah, I learned about that technique from the Scott Moulton "Hard Drive Recovery" videos from 2006. Don't put it in the freezer, but *cooling* is a good idea.22:09
TJ-Guest96: just do the "ip addr add ..." and then the "ping ..."22:09
joshteranybody would like to help? lol22:10
joshterusing 2-in-1 laptop-tablet. unable to drag/move or resize few windows like firefox, chromium and this irc chat when in tablet mode - touch screen22:10
tomreyndaddesio: right, you don't want ot go much below specified operating temperature.22:11
Guest96TJ- Now i can ping my this comp22:12
TJ-Guest96: Oh! So it wasn't WoL - Yay :D  ... so now we need to figure out why the DHCP wasn't working22:13
joshterrtest 12322:14
TJ-Guest96: Guest96 which release of Ubuntu is it? "cat /etc/issue"22:14
Guest96newest srv distro22:14
Guest96TJ- 16.04.3 lts22:15
TJ-Guest96: OK, so the current Xenial Long Term Support22:15
TJ-Guest96: so that'll expect to have networking configured using either systemd-networkd or ifupdown. How did you configure the network? Maybe via the file /etc/network/interfaces ?22:16
Guest96TJ- no idea, my mate was trying to do it but he could get the internet to run either22:17
TJ-Guest96: if you do "cat /etc/network/interfaces" do you see a section for "eno1" ?22:17
Guest96TJ- and he gave up ,D22:17
Guest96TJ- no, just see the standard auto lo ,iface lo inet loopback22:18
TJ-Guest96: maybe there's a separate file for it, so try this: "grep -rn eno1 /etc/network/interfaces{,.d/} "22:19
TJ-Guest96: if you get nothing from that, try "grep -rn eno1 /etc/systemd/network/"22:20
Guest96TJ- from systemd i got something22:21
TJ-Guest96: Oh, good... is it "Name=eno1" ?22:22
Guest96TJ- ehm no22:22
TJ-Guest96: OK, what is the filename reported for the grep match? (I assume it was a match and not an error message)22:23
Guest96TJ- [1] exit 127 fwep -en wno22:23
TJ-Guest96: that looks like a shell message for a command put into the background, did you mistype?22:24
TJ-Guest96: basically, what you want in /etc/systemd/network/ is a single file containing this: http://iam.tj/projects/ubuntu/eno1.network22:24
Guest96TJ- yeah i did ;:D22:24
TJ-Guest96: you can fetch that file from my server and install it using "wget -O - http://iam.tj/projects/ubuntu/eno1.network | sudo tee /etc/systemd/network/eno1.network"22:25
TJ-Guest96: after than ensure the networkd service is enabled/running with "systemctl status systemd-networkd" -- you should see something similar to "Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/systemd-networkd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)" -- if 'enabled' says 'disabled' tell me22:26
Guest96TJ- just getting missing url with wget22:27
ATLowtherAny recommendations for a terminal replacement?22:28
Guest96TJ- can i just make sudo nano file with that?22:28
ATLowtherI tried terminator. I wasn't a fan.22:28
TJ-Guest96: sure, I was trying to make it easier for you22:28
TJ-Guest96: "sudo nano /etc/systemd/network/eno1.network"22:28
oerheksATLowther, 10 *best*, but i think you have the best already, gnome-terminal22:29
oerhekshttp://www.linuxandubuntu.com/home/10-best-linux-terminals-for-ubuntu-and-fedora22:29
ATLowtherMy main desire is multi-tab support.22:30
Guest96TJ- systemmd-network service disabled22:31
TJ-ATLowther: have you considered using a terminal multiplexer like tmux or screen?22:31
ATLowtherI have never heard of that before.22:31
Guest96TJ- veondor preset enabled22:31
TJ-Guest96: OK, so "sudo systemctl enable systemd-networkd.service"  then "sudo systemctl start systemd-networkd.service"22:31
TJ-Guest96: after that, because we set a manual IP address, it might get another, so try a reboot22:32
Guest96TJ- sudo systemctl, no such file or diretory22:32
TJ-Guest96: typo?22:33
Guest96TJ- yeah, forgot the D..22:34
Guest96TJ- well, i have internet22:35
TJ-Guest96: right, and 2 IP addresses I suspect :) Now to try a reboot to make sure it's permanent22:35
[1]KrisWoodtomreyn, Success! I removed the device with the conflicting IP from the router config, and removed the broken bridge configuration from my ubuntu machine and now SSH is working properly! Thank you for steering me in the right direction!22:36

TJ-!cookie tomreyn22:36
Guest96TJ- yeah, i got it after reboot22:37
TJ-Guest96: Yay!22:37
Guest96TJ- is it done?22:37
TJ-Guest96: sorry about the WoL detour22:37
TJ-Guest96: yes22:37
Guest96TJ- Like jeez, first time doing a physical linux-machine22:38

Guest96TJ- the hyper-v setups has been way to easy on me22:38
TJ-Guest96: Not sure why the installer failed to get it set up, it may be there was some WoL interference we cleared, but I can't be sure22:38
Guest96 TJ- can we make a summary of what we really did so i can save it for further use ;D22:39
TJ-Guest96: created the systemd-networkd configuration and enabled the service22:44
TJ-Guest96: we also explored the state of the Wake On LAN setting in the belief it might be causing the Trasmit side of the network interface to not send data22:44
yehuda##java22:47
Guest96TJ- Well thank you so much for the help, but if i should fuck something up again(who knows) and reinstalls and the DHCP fails again, i just can make the eno1 file with the Match and DHCP stuff, the enable and  systemd-network?22:47
TJ-Guest96: Yes - assuming the Wake On LAN isn't interferring22:48
Guest96TJ- Ok, well it works now thanks to you atleast, lets just hope i dont fuck it up ;)22:49
TJ-Guest96: use a snapshotting file-system, then you can take snapshots at various points and roll-back if you mess it up, rather than needing to do a full reinstall22:51
Guest96TJ- Any guides for it? I used lvm while setting up, so any guides for securing the server and etc will be appreciated22:52
TJ-Guest96: lvm is what I was going to suggest22:53
tomreynthanks for the cookie, t-j, i'll add that to my browser.22:54
TJ-Guest96: as simple as "sudo lvcreate --snapshot --name NAME -L 5g VG/LV" - where 5g is the limit on the size. See "man lvcreate" for more22:55

crazygaryis there a google authenticator available that isn't the shitty one from github?22:58
Tobayou mean a TOTP client app?22:59
crazygaryyeah lol23:00
Guest96TJ- okay, will look into that, u know any good harden/secure guides? Will be putting it online just beein doing localhost within the vm23:01
Tobacrazygary: can you point to "the shitty one from github", so we're on the same page?23:02
crazygaryhttps://github.com/google/google-authenticator23:03
crazygarythat one, i mean it might not be shitty, but i have no idea how to use it23:03
TJ-Guest96: well, don't bind services to public interfaces unless that is needed, and configure the firewall for INPUT/FORWARD policy  DROP then add specific rules for each service/port you wish to allow23:05
TJ-Guest96: see https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/security.html23:06
Guest96TJ- Will read it,  And thank you again for the help23:12
