lwizardlwhats the best way to resize a lvm without data loss? I have a hdd I want to image to a vm and the system is only using 3gb of the 186gb lvm, and then the 511mb boot partition01:18
pinPointis there a way I can remove perl from ubuntu ant its @INC in the home user folder?01:20
pinPointThen do a reinstall?01:20
cfhowlettpinPoint, do you need to remove the @inc only or the whole package?01:21
cfhowletti.e. reconfigure or reinstall?01:21
pinPointI'm really not sure. I went from 14.04 to 16.04 and something is broken during a script run01:22
pinPointUnable to resolve external IP (501 Protocol scheme 'http' is not supported) at ./update.pl line 33.01:22
hggdhtaken perl would will be... complex01:22
pinPointHere is the .pl line: https://github.com/chandwki/DigitalOcean-DDNS/blob/master/update.pl01:23
cfhowlettpinPoint, sudo apt purge perl then navigate to your /home, enable hidden folder view, look in your .config and kill the perl configurations01:23
pinPointkill?01:23
cfhowlettdelete,01:23
pinPointcfhowlett: this .config folder is actually named what?01:24
cfhowlett.config/perl ...01:24
cfhowlettI suppose01:24
hggdhagan, removing perl will probably remove a nice chunk of the install. Not a good idea.01:26
pinPointman, how do I fix this mess. :/01:26
cfhowlettpinPoint, ^^^01:26
cfhowlettif I understand the error, it points to an external IP setting ... Digital Ocean if I read this right01:27
cfhowlettso take it up with DO01:27
hggdhbut, more simply, where is the use HTTP::request (or whatever is the name f the package)?01:30
pinPointhggdh: line 33 or just before it in that link above ^^^01:31
hggdhpinPoint: still do not see the "use HTTP::request;"01:31
pinPointmy $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => "http://ipinfo.io/ip");01:32
hggdhpinPoint: on line 26 you *used* a method from a class. Where is the class package *declared* to Perl?01:32
hggdh(which would be a "use ..." statement, like you see at the beginning of the script)01:33
pinPointnot sure hggdh, I'm using a suggested script from DO. It work in 14.04 before 16.0401:34
hggdhpinPoint: well, the script is missing declaring this class/package01:36
pinPointhggdh: I'm not sure, not a perl guru.01:38
cfhowlettthere is a #perl channel.  perhaps they would know more?01:39
lwizardlis there any way to create an image of a drive without the empty space? reason why is I have a 200gb hdd that is only using about 4gb of space that I want to create an image of to make it a vm01:45

slicktuxHello all, I've tried installing Kubuntu from both a USB and DVD and each time I reboot after install the system fails and it goes into grub rescue; the first time (with the USB) it was complaining that i386 was not found (I tried manually copying it to boot but that did not work), and now it is complaining about "invalid arch-independent ELF magic". . .any ideas?02:21
cfhowlettdid you use the 32 bit ubuntu?  cause i386 is 32 bit02:22
slicktuxcfhowlett: No, I am using 64 bit. .02:22
cfhowlettis your machine 32 bit or 64 bit02:22
slicktux64 bit.. .02:22
slicktuxLet me double check my ram; but the CPU is 64 bit and the LiveUSB and LiveCD boots Kubuntu just fine. . .02:23
zumba_addictGood evening folks. Which library provides sha1.so?02:24
snadgeim looking for some clarification on this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/SpectreAndMeltdown02:25
snadge"No microcode updates are currently available for AMD or Intel, which means Spectre v2 is still unmitigated out of the box on Ubuntu on x86 CPUs. "02:25
slicktuxcfhowlett: yea, I got 6GB of ram. . .02:26
snadgebut it also states further down that if you enable proposed you'll get a retpoline patched kernel and a gcc with retpoline support02:26
cfhowlettslicktux, https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196581002:26
cfhowlettslicktux, was this a new install or update?02:27
slicktuxcfhowlett: new install.02:27
snadgei guess my question is.. is there any point to installing the retpoline patches from proposed.. and doesnt some parts of userspace need to be recompiled with that compiler for it to be effective.. and does retpoline require microcode update to be effective?02:27
snadgeor will the microcode update just minimise the performance impact of that02:28
slicktuxcfhowlett: Thanks for the link; I will try that now; If it works than that is just funny; the installer is obviously bugging out and not installing grub onto my drive. . .so I have to do it manually; W T F02:29
slicktuxXD02:29
slicktuxGeez, this dvd has slow read speeds.02:32
slicktux8S02:32
snadgethis is more a channel for supporting noobs than discussing complex exploit mitigations like meltdown and spectre? :P02:34
cfhowlettthis is a volunteer channel.  be patient.  for instant answers, look to Canonical paid support options02:35
snadgeim really greatful that ubuntu has published a statement regarding those vulnerabilities, and the current status and timeline etc, and nice tables showing kernel versions and mitigation levels etc02:36
snadgebut it just makes me want to know more :P02:37
slicktuxcfhowlett: I appreciate your help; I've determined that it was my install medium; I am going to reinstall. . .02:42

segersjerrynojjjjjjjjjjj, Have you tried expect?03:52
nojjjjjjjjjjjmy knowledge of script creation is very minimal03:53
segersjerrynojjjjjjjjjjj, last time I tried something like that, all I had to do was run autoecpect, do what I wanted it to do for me, and poof, I had a working script.03:53
nojjjjjjjjjjji get stuck at the point of password03:53
segersjerrytypo: autoexpect03:54
nojjjjjjjjjjjnot sure of what the line would look like to prompt for password03:54
nojjjjjjjjjjjwould it be pwd="enter password"03:55
nojjjjjjjjjjjor print pwd03:55
nojjjjjjjjjjjor expect pwd03:55

nojjjjjjjjjjjhow so03:56
nojjjjjjjjjjjdoes it require sudo apt-get install autoexpect03:56
segersjerrynot autoexpect, expect. autoexpect should be part of expect package.03:57
nojjjjjjjjjjjcould you provide an example please03:58
nojjjjjjjjjjjor link to explanation if its not part of bash then how would i find a manual03:58
segersjerrysudo apt install expect                 then use autoecpect to make the script.03:59

hggdhneildugan: which filesystem is full?04:34
nojjjjjjjjjjjare there other ways to achieve the same outcome via bash script reason i ask is because BloqueNegro wrote a script for me yesterday but i dare not run it prior to understanding it it looked very very different to my basic script id look it up but have no idea where it was stored after downloading it iv looked every where its gone now so i cant search the commands within04:35
nojjjjjjjjjjjquestion being are there other ways to perform the same task as what im doing in my script04:36
nojjjjjjjjjjjit was a bash script not python or anythin04:37

hggdhneildugan: so there is a lot of space -- 700MB should be enough. What was the exact output of apt upgrade? Use pastebin, please04:42
strivenojjjjjjjjjjj: :)04:44
neilduganhggdh, https://pastebin.com/PYaFncp604:47
rijackhggdh: neildugan: also not to state the obvious but the first thing I usually with apt issues is "sudo apt update" then I check for a dpkg lock file04:48
neilduganrijack, I did an 'apt update' didn't fix anything04:48
hggdhneildugan: ah, /is 90% full04:50
neilduganhggdh, yes -- still 751M free04:52
hggdhneildugan: try running apt-get autoclean, and see how much space is releases04:53
hggdhneildugan: this will delete old, obsolete packages from the local apt archive04:54
neilduganhggdh, already done that.04:54
cfhowlettneildugan, are you getting "disk full" messages04:54
neilduganhggdh, I did a 'apt-get clean' as well04:54
neildugancfhowlett, only when using apt04:55
hggdhneildugan: so you will have to find some way to clean up space on /04:55
hggdhneildugan: seriously, 7G for / is asking for trouble04:56
lotuspsychjeneildugan: i always clean systems with bleachbit04:56
neilduganhggdh, I know it isn't much, I had some trouble a while back and that was the best I could do at that time.04:58
hggdhneildugan: still, you have to open some space on /05:08
neilduganhggdh, I tried deleting all the archived log files, but that wasn't enough05:10
hggdhneildugan: how much space is under /var/cache/apt/archive? du -sh on it will tell you05:10
neilduganwhat is /var/backups05:11
hggdhneildugan: backups of some system files05:12
hggdhneildugan: usually small enough not to be worth bothering with05:13
neilduganhggdh, /var/cache/apt/archives = 8.6M05:14
neilduganis it ok to remove the files in /var/backups ?05:14
hggdhneildugan: yes, it is. But how much space is it going to release?05:14
hggdhneildugan: another option: did you try apt --purge autoremove?05:16
hggdhneildugan: this will remove packages that are not being used (probably old, like kernels 2 or more versions below current)05:17
=== LocaMocha is now known as Sauvin
neilduganhggdh, I can't use apt to remove anything atm... it keeps asking me to do an 'apt-get -f install'05:21
hggdhneildugan: so, how many kernels in /boot?05:21
neilduganhggdh, it is using 333M ... it seems the the autoremove doesn't get rid of the file like "initrd.img-3.13.0-96-generic.old-dkms"05:25

hggdhneildugan: also, please add in a dpkg -l linux-\*05:34
neilduganhggdh, https://pastebin.com/suwXPK61 .... it seems that the autoremove is not at all thorough enough05:41
=== DarthVader is now known as Guest84487
cfhowletthggdh, manually delete all but the 2 most recent kernels05:43
hggdhcfhowlett: yes, it would work05:43
hggdhneildugan: OK, you got your work pretty much defined. you can try, first of all, to dpkg --purge -r all old kernel packages05:45
hggdhneildugan: alternatively, you can, as cfhowlett pointed out, rm the two oldest kernel files (-100 and -129)05:46
hggdhneildugan: and trash the old-dkms files05:47
hggdhthis will probably free up enough space to apt -f install05:47
hggdhneildugan: BUT: after that, you are on your own. It will happen again.05:48
cfhowlettunless you do your spring cleaning more frequently05:48
hggdhand increase the size of /05:49
cfhowlettshouldn't need to increase / if regularly maintained.  with this kernel count, I'd guess maintenance has been done every so ... never?05:49
jaltHi, how can I add libaacs to the VLC 3.0 snap?05:52
neildugancfhowlett, I every time I do an 'apt update' an 'apt autoremove' get done as well... these packages shouldn't have been left installed.05:54
cfhowlettdepends on which ubuntu version you have.  I think kernel removal didn't get the autoremove trigger until 14.0405:55
neildugancfhowlett, its older than I thought it 14.04.505:56
hggdhper the kernel he is running Trusty05:56
cfhowletthggdh, noted.  question:  y u no upgrade to 16.0405:57
hggdhheh. Right now... no chance in hell it will succeed, not enough space05:58
neilduganhggdh, yes right.. I am going to have to get that to work.  somehow.05:59
cfhowletteh?  download .iso, make usb, boot usb, install to current partition scheme.  no additional room needed05:59
neildugancfhowlett, yes that would work... but first I am going to clean up as much space here as possible.06:00
hggdhcfhowlett: hah, I was thinking of do-release-upgrade...06:00
cfhowlettthat would also work.  clean install is my (dubious) preference06:00
hggdhcfhowlett: no, do-release-upgrade would not, it first downloads all packages06:01

quantzbeatzhttp://termbin.com/lyqj10:11
quantzbeatzEriC^^: ^^10:11
ducassesamfreed: you could file a bug against gnome-settings-daemon, since that's what throws the "cannot open display" error10:12
samfreedducasse: The first "cannot open display" is from gnome-screensav, actually.10:13
ducassesamfreed: so, it could be gdm that fails to start wayland. i'm just guessing, though.10:15
samfreedducasse: should I throw the log onto termbin for you to see?10:16
samfreedducasse: look here: http://termbin.com/kynm10:19
samfreedducasse: What about THIS during boot? : "[   17.542201] wl: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel" ???10:26
ducassesamfreed: that must be some other module, do you have something that uses dkms installed? what about those .bashrc errors near the top of the log, are there any problems with parsing that?10:28
samfreedducasse: I expect them to do gracefuly ignored, as they wrote such a nice set of warnings about them...10:31
samfreedducasse: should I get rid of the .profile and try again?10:32
ducassesamfreed: no, don't do that10:32

kuba-orlikcan I just downgrade to 16.04?10:40
daxdowngrades aren't officially supported. it's probably theoretically likely, but #ubuntu won't help with it10:40
daxsecond link in ubottu's comment says how to upgrade10:40
daxs/likely/possible/10:40
ducassekuba-orlik: apt isn't designed to do downgrades, so if you want 16.04 do a reinstall10:42
kuba-orlikI see10:42
kuba-orlikI'm tring to follow the EOLUpgrades tutorial10:43
kuba-orlikAnd I don't uderstand the "Update sources.list"10:43
ducassekuba-orlik: see also the answer in the link i gave you10:43
kuba-orlikyeah, about that10:44
kuba-orlikit says that I should "make sure you have a sources.list like the following, with CODENAME being your release"10:44

AmisHello! I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 (MATE). I'm not sure if this is MATE specific so I try here: while I'm typing the touchpad gets disabled. Is this default behaviour? Can I turn it off? (ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad)14:15
AmisMy synclient output if it is related: https://paste.ubuntu.com/=6xZxVQmFzX/14:17
ecormierit shows the touchpad is off: TouchpadOff             = 114:19
geirhaIt's probably to meantt for laptop touchpads that are right below the keyboard, to avoid accidentally tapping it while typing on the keyboard14:19
ecormiermust be a setting in mate somewhere14:19
Amisecormier, I'm not sure about synclient as this is not a Synaptics touchpad but I have no idea what to list14:19
AmisSo maybe it's not even related14:19
Amisgeirha, yea but it is seriously interfering with my... everything14:20

alcaI wanna set up a proxy that I'm going to connect all my devices to, and I'm wondering if it is possible to also set that server to recieve all the files I am downloading on those devices automatically? I really would like avoiding to having to download the files to my devices and then moving them to the server. I would like the downlads to be just redirected to my home server so that I can avoid downloading it on the networks I'm currently on(outside my LAN),15:46
alcaand also avoid saving them to those devices. More or less like a seedbox works... Any idea where I can find info on someethething like that?15:46

s10gopal_TJ-, can you plz help me in installing fglrx ? i think it is supported on 14.0416:43
iorias10gopal_, not with the xenial hwe16:45
s10gopal_ioria, not with ubuntu 14.04.05 ?16:46
iorianope16:46
TJ-s10gopal_: I don't deal with the proprietary drivesr. If 14.04 has solved the issue (I wonder if that is due to the kernel version) then it'd make sense to test some mainline kernel builds to find out precisely where the problem was introduced - that should make it easier for kernel developers to pinpoint and fix it16:47
oerhekshttp://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man1/mid3v2.1.html -- mid3v2  is  a Mutagen-based replacement for id3lib's id3v2. It supports ID3v2.4 and more frames16:48
s10gopal_TJ-, i tried old kernel on ubuntu 16.04 LTS buy my laptop became super laggy , cpu use os single core was 99%16:48
oerheksfglrx for AMD  r5 m430  ???16:48
s10gopal_yes16:49
oerheksnot sure that is supported, that amd card should run openradeon in 16.0416:49
TJ-s10gopal_: right, so look at the good kernel you have on 14.04 and install the nearest, later, version from the kernel team's mainline repo, and repeat until you hit the regression. That way you can report the last working/girst broken kernel versions.16:49
s10gopal_TJ-, i'm on 4.4.0-31-generic16:50
TJ-ducasse: hmmmm, beets looks a bit heavyweight. Seems like the main problem is the primary simple command-line tools depend on id3lib3.8.3 which was last updated in 2003, and never supported id3v2.416:50
TJ-ducasse: seems like the library that does support v2.4 is libid3tag0, but most of the tools that depend on it seem to be GUI... I'm working through the list :)16:51
ducasseTJ-: beets was just the first thing that came to mind, as it handles so much stuff (but it is heavyweight, yes)16:54

s10gopalTJ-, which ver i should try?17:24
hggdhs10gopal: as apw asked you, you should identify the kernel that started causing you problems. You state you found 4.4 did not have the problem, but you did NOT find which kernel introduced it17:25
hggdhs10gopal: if your laptop gets slow with kernel x.y.z, that's unfortunate, but does not matter for your bug (it is NOT a battery drainage issue)17:26
raidghostleftyfb: Most stable, Debian or Ubuntu?17:27
hggdhs10gopal: so: you now know that 4.4 does not have issues. try now 4.5, then 4.6... until you find one that causes drainage17:27
raidghostupgrading perl and upgrading cpan on ubuntu was pain in the *. Errosr and brick17:28
lotuspsychje!latest | raidghost17:28
ubotturaidghost: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.17:28
james_brownhow do i open bash on ubuntu?  I tried typing "bash" in the shell but nothing happens.  I couldnt find an answer on google either17:28
hggdhs10gopal: THEN you know the last good kernel, and the first bad kernel; then it is a question of looking at different updates from last good to first bad, until re reach a point where bisecting can actually be performed17:29
akikjames_brown: if you installed ubuntu using the defaults, you're already using bash17:29
hggdhs10gopal: go and try it, and find these kernel versions. Hearsay does not help here.17:29
james_brownakik: this says im using Dash and not Bash ---> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh17:30
s10gopal_hggdh, how to download them ? should i stick with ubuntu 14.04 or install ubuntu 16.04 then try ? it can be ubuntu 16 that is causing the problem?17:30
hggdhs10gopal: finally, two points: (1) be patient. The fact YOU are affected by a bug does NOT make it important (and people do have to sleep, or work, or have weekends);17:30
s10gopal_hggdh, someone said the problem is caused by kernel 4.8 onwards17:30
akikjames_brown: that applies if you changed your user shell to either /bin/sh or /bin/dash17:31
hggdhs10gopal_: (2) if you call !ops again for nothing, I will kick you out of the channel.17:31
hggdhs10gopal_: this is hearsay. YOU have to check it17:31
s10gopal_hggdh, sorry , i was trying that cmd17:31
hggdhs10gopal_: np, you were not. You were trying to get someone to answer you.17:32
james_brownakik: it seems like I have both directories: /bin/sh and /bin/dash17:32
akikjames_brown: those are not directories, but files17:33
james_brownakik: yeah mb17:33
hggdhs10gopal_: you can kep on 14.04, and start trying every mainline kernel released after your current kernel17:33
james_brownakik: I actually have bash, sh and dash17:33
raidghostlotuspsychje: For some reasons after upgrade of perl and cpan there is no support for json17:34
akikjames_brown: when you start bash, it doesn't give you anything back. you can see if you're using bash with: echo $SHELL17:34
james_brownakik: it returns /bin/bash which probably means I'm using bash17:35
hggdhs10gopal_: you can even jump some versions -- if, after jumping to (say) 4.8 you see the problem, then you know the issue is between (say) 4.4 and 4.8. And you can go and try a kernel in the middle17:35
james_brownakik: thanks for the help :D17:35
s10gopal_hggdh, i should try 4.5 then 4.6 or 4.5.1 then 4.5.2 ?17:35
hggdhs10gopal_: and rinse and repeat, until you have a good kernel and the very next kernel released is bad17:35
hggdhs10gopal_: I would personally go binary search17:36
lotuspsychjeraidghost: best way to solve your issue, re-ask your problem with all details, ubuntu version kernel version, what did you do?17:36
raidghostlotuspsychje: had to install HTTP::Cache::Transparent to make a XMLTV EPG grabber to work propperly. Tried to install with cpan. the installer told me that i had to have the latest version to install that module. So i thought sudo cpan upgrade. and after that it seems to brick.

castor00001110oerheks, I did.18:40
rthornton nplan allows you to write a service-agnostic configuration which at boot-time is processed by a generator to write the correct config for the system's network handling service, systemd-netword or network-manager are the two renders currently supported18:40
ikoniaI know what nplan is, but why is that the answer to "where are the config files stored"18:40
rthorntonfor 17.10 it'll be by default; for 16.04 you'll need to install package 'nplan'18:40
rthorntonIm just experimenting18:41
ikoniayou're just cutting and pasting what TJ- said in #ubuntu-server18:41
akywhats the nplan package?18:42
akyI primarily use 16.0418:42
oerheksnpan > netplan ? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Netplan18:42
akyoh ok18:43
TJ-rthornton: read "man netplan" it gives all the information required18:44
rthorntonYes;  I didnt relaize that you were in both channels18:44
SomeTI have this error on one of my servers: https://askubuntu.com/questions/204400/ssh-public-key-no-supported-authentication-methods-available-server-sent-publ but my other server has no key setup at all I think...18:44
akyAlright, thanks will do.18:44
SomeTI am only doing public key btw18:44
RomanticSo nobody knows how to mix mic input and system output on ubuntu?18:45
ikoniaSomeT: look in the config if key based authentication is supported18:45
SomeTwhat config?18:45
ikoniaSomeT: what is the EXACT command you are using18:45
SomeTI am literally trying to connect using PuTTy client in windows18:46
ikoniaSomeT: what user are you trying to connect as18:46
ikoniado you have pagent running with the private key loaded ?18:46
rthorntonI have a fully functioning, complete desktop system on an inexpensive Dell Insipron 3655 running 16.04LTS Mate..  I have vmware installed, and I use a simple OpenBSD vm, as my ssh exposed vm,;  I figure its reasonable secure by default.  I have the ufw firewall enabled on my host Ubuntu system;  do you think there are any serious security flaws or concerns exposing a vm to outside ssh attacks?18:46
SomeTI tried default user name and root18:46
SomeTboth same error18:46
SomeTpagent?18:46
ikoniaSomeT: you know that the root user is disabled18:46
ikoniaSomeT: how are you passing in your private key to putty without pagent ?18:47
SomeTno idea18:47
SomeTit just works on my other server18:47
SomeTI just literally can connect18:47
ikoniathen how do you expect to send your key18:47
SomeTwhat do you mean?18:47
oerheksSomeT, maybe something related to enabling/disabling your rootaccount?18:47
ikoniaSomeT: on your other server does it ask you to enter a password /18:47
SomeTbasically there are no keys for either server18:47
SomeTbut one server lets me login and the other does not18:48
ikoniaSomeT: login as what user18:48
SomeTyes it does18:48
SomeTroot18:48
ikoniaI told you - root is not a valid user18:48
SomeTit lets me do it as that18:48
SomeTI set it up to let me login as root ;)18:48
=== zzz__ is now known as zzz
ikoniaSomeT: yes, on the other server18:48
ikoniaSomeT: on the "new" one you just referenced it will be disabled18:48
SomeTon both I set it up like that18:48
ikoniawhen ?18:48
SomeTI can still access the terminals from the web consoles18:48
ikoniayou didn't know how to do it a few minutes ago18:48
SomeTliterally 10 mins ago18:48
SomeTsomeone posted a link18:49
ikoniaI told you not to do that though18:49
SomeTsee above18:49
SomeTyes thats your opinion18:49
ikoniaok - then I'll leave you alone then,18:49
SomeTrude18:49
ikoniano it's not18:49
SomeTbut its not insecure18:49
ikoniayou ask advice, I tell you it's a security hole, not to do it, you do it anyway, so I choose not to support that18:49
ikoniait's very insecure18:49
SomeTany way of doing that on either end has the same security holes18:49
ikoniapassword authenticated root account open on th einternet18:49
SomeTnothing is unhackable18:49
SomeTok but I could still login as normal user on the internet18:50
SomeTthen apply the same password as sudo18:50
SomeTsame thing really...18:50
ikoniait's open to root on the internet18:50
ikoniawhy not just sudo -i as I said18:50
ikoniathen why enable the root account18:50
SomeTI mean its not the issue here really, the issue is I can't connect to my server as main user or root18:50
ikoniathe issue is you don't know what you are doing and dont follow advice18:51
ikoniaso you can solve it on your own18:51
SomeTbut what you have advised me makes no difference to my issue18:51
SomeTif so please explain how it does18:51
SomeTelse I believe you are just being tedious and uninformative18:51
rthorntonSomeT, OpenBSD recommends disabling root level ssh connections, period.18:52
SomeTok18:52
SomeTbut say I done that18:52
SomeTthen how do I connect to my server without a key18:53
SomeTwhy does one server let me and the other not?18:53
TJ-SomeT: because you have configured them differently; compare the configs18:53
rthorntonSomeT, I am not expert enough to advise you;  I just play a bit with a few virtual machines.  My host system is not connected via my router to any outside ssh requests;  its too risky, as i see it.18:55
SomeTwhere is the configs (I asked that earlier)18:57
webbbhi18:58
SomeTalso I disabled root accounts18:58
SomeThi18:58
webbbWhat is the minimal requirement for making a ubuntu box resolvable by Windows machines?18:58

SomeTin the ubuntu operating system when connecting over SSH where are the relevant configuration config files in respect of SSH???19:00
TJ-SomeT: see "man 5 sshd_config"19:01
ducasse!patience | SomeT19:01
ubottuSomeT: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/19:01

SomeTMy initial server that allows me to login on PuTTy telnet client has in directory:  ~/.ssh the following files and directories: authorized_keys  id_rsa  id_rsa.pub  known_hosts where as the server thats not letting me in via the PuTTy telnet client has in the directory: ~/.ssh the following files and directories: authorized_keys I can conclude from this and please please correct me if I am19:24
SomeTwrong, PuTTy is not letting me logon due to a lack of a public being generated which I presume is the id_rsa.pub file as mentioned above, no idea what id_rsa is doing though, hopefully not a private key? However I guess my overall question would be how to create a public key on my server and thus would that same key need to be on my computer, because at the moment my initial server is letting19:24
SomeTme login without any public key stored on my computer, I am sorry if I was rude before but I put in the effort to do my own investigation and I hope you can aid me further in figuring out what to do next please?19:24

balleyneI just installed Ubuntu on a Mac, using a live USB (worked fine there) and I choose "erase entire disk". The Mac was running Windows XP before (don't ask, it's a gift). When I rebooted after installation, it just says "Error loading operating system" (white text on black screen). When I hold alt (boot key) on the Mac, I just see one boot option, a hard disk labelled "Windows". Anyone know how to troubleshoot? Is this a grub thing? Not familiar with19:34

adalberteXino: you could install guake, it's a great terminal with it's own font preferences in settings.21:51
eXinoadalbert: Ok, let me search it up etc.21:51
eXinoadalbert: As I'm using weechat, would that still me installed and available through Guake? Asking again, because I'm simply new to linux and trying to learn and understand it :)21:54
adalbertsure weechat works on guake , but I know read guake is a gnome env terminal , so you need the gnome libs aswell21:55
eXinoadalbert: Ok, ehm... How do I do that? /me feels like a kid learning how to turn on my PC for the first time.21:56
adalberteXino: when you use apt install guake , all the dependencies for it are installed aswell, so the gnome libs included21:56
eXinoOkay, so I just "sudo apt-get install guake" and the rest is done by itself?21:57
adalberteXino: yup, you should be oke21:57
JPSmani'm reading all this stuff about guake and was wondering if it was a new Quake clone :OD21:58
eXinoI'll give it a go then. Thanks so far :-)21:58
eXinoJPSman: As I can read, it is inspired by Quake actually, lol21:58
adalberteXino: after installation run guake-prefs , so you can fine tune it to your needs21:58
JPSmaneXino, LOL --- too bad i can't "impulse 9" my desktop21:59
adalberteXino: JPSman : it's a drop-down terminal activated by a key combo, just like in the old days of quake21:59
JPSmanthat is quite hilarious22:00
adalbertit is :D22:00
adalbertbut it is a super terminal imo22:00
JPSmansv_hostframerate 0.0522:01
eXinoHow would I go about making guake start by itself without me having to launch it through the default terminal?22:01
JPSmanslow down reality22:01
JPSmanyeah, I wanna know stuff like that too - whats the best way to start a process at login?22:02
adalberteXino: JPSman sec i'll imgur that for you22:03
eXinoadalbert: thanks!22:03

adalbertadd it to session and startup ...22:04
eXinoUhm, I cannot find that in ubuntu? I can see something called Startup Applications from which I have to find it manually in the folders somewhere :O22:05
JPSmanSession and startup....  is that in 16.04??22:05
adalbertit's an xubuntu application, sorry have to find that some where else then22:06
adalbertxfce4-session-settings22:06
eXinoStill have to find it manually in the system somewhere there as well. What folderdestination is it located at?22:08
adalberteXino: /usr/bin ?22:08
adalberteXino: /usr/bin/guake22:08
eXinoAll programs are installed there?22:08
adalbertmost in /usr/bin system admin in /usr/sbin22:09
eXinoadalbert: See, that's something new I just learned. Didn't know that. Then I can add it to Startup Applications, which is basically the same as what Sessions and Startup is :)22:09
adalberteXino: great, enjoy your new terminal22:10
eXinoadalbert: Thanks! :-)22:10
eXinoWil test it now.22:11
eXinoI guess you're using it too?22:11
adalberteXino: it's my favorite terminal other than the standard xubuntu one22:12
eXinoadalbert: Cool :)22:12
eXinobrb, will restart and test it22:13
eXinoadalbert: Ok, so I just switched, but the font issue is still the same in this terminal.22:17
eXinoMust be OS wise somehow.22:18
serexrdb -load .Xdefaults22:18
adalberteXino: oh really ? hmm, then it's system font related ...22:18
adalberteXino: can you upload a picture to imgur.com so I can see what your font looks like ?22:19

eXinoadalbert: I tried as best of my ability, but I'm not sure if I did it correctly.22:27
eXinoUse fixed system width is an option I cannot find. And the ttf font family suggestion is something I'm lost with. I tried something from another guide, but I don't think it was the same and it didn't make any difference.22:28

DyrconaI have an encrypted swap partition that seems to have "disappeared."22:32
DyrconaThe underlying disk partition is there, but I have to set it up again manually every time I reboot, and then it is not there on the next boot.22:33
DyrconaWhen I do boot, the system takes forever, ends up in busy box.22:33
DyrconaI type "exit." It boots, and I can enter the passphrase for the encrypted home partition.22:34
DyrconaI've tried googling, but all I come up with are instructions for setting this up in the first place. Nothing on how to repair it.22:34
adalberteXino: I'm reading this link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts , maybe it helps.22:35
DyrconaWhen I follow any of the instructions I've found, I get the behavior described above.22:35
DyrconaAnyone dealt with this before and have any suggestions?22:35
eXinoadalbert: I'll give it a go, one moment22:36
DyrconaThis started today. The laptop "froze" when waking from sleep and I had to power it off with the power button, so I'm sure something was corrupted.22:36
tomreynDyrcona: show the contents of /etc/fstab and the output "blkid" generates on a pastebin22:36
tomreyn!paste | Dyrcona22:36
ubottuDyrcona: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.22:36
tomreynDyrcona:  also which ubuntu version is this? run: lsb_release -ds22:38
Dyrconatomreyn: https://paste.ubuntu.com/=DTRvcpH49V/22:39
DyrconaIt's Ubuntu 17.10.22:39
DyrconaYou'll notice /dev/mapper/sda1_crypt is missing. That's what happens when I reboot.22:40
tomreynDyrcona: and finally (?) output of "cat /proc/swaps"22:40
rangemongeris it just me or are gdebi and software store both broken for double clicking debs on a fresh install?22:40
rangemonger17.1022:40
Dyrconaswap is on presently on.22:40
Dyrconaoops. swap is off, I meant to say.22:41
eXinoadalbert: I'm reading alot of people mentioning that monospace works best for terminals as characters are placed in grids, which monospace places characters in the middle of, where as other fonts may put them off. Still seems weird that they will overlap sometimes though.22:42
DyrconaLast time, I added the partition back using these instructions: https://feeding.cloud.geek.nz/posts/encrypted-swap-partition-on/22:42
eXinoI'm using monospace now though. Will be good enough for now :) I'm off for today, thank you for your assistance! :)22:42
DyrconaI also edited /etc/crypttab since blkid reported a different UUID, and the ran update-initramfs, hoping all of that would fix it, but nope.22:43
rangemongerhmm, gdebi doesnt prompt for password, it just closes22:44
tomreynDyrcona: /dev/mapper/sda1_crypt (which fstab thinks is your swap partition) is not listed in blkid output. did you - after verifying this destructive action does not overwrite data you still need - "mkswap /dev/mapper/sda1_crypt" ?22:46
tomreynDyrcona: also be sure to check "dmesg -T" output for hardware errors since the swap partition vanished unexpectedly with what you assume could be some kind of corruption.22:48
Dyrconatomreyn: These are the steps that I took last time to try and fix it: https://paste.ubuntu.com/=fnDQkvJx7d/22:50
Dyrconatomreyn: /dev/mapper/sda1_crypt disappears on reboot.22:50
tomreynDyrcona: /etc/crypttab should point to the LVM encrypted device which the swap partition is layered into22:50
tomreynblkid /dev/mapper/sd1_crypt  << typo, you lack and 'a' in "sd1_crypt"22:52
Dyrconatomreyn: Yeah, I copied the wrong entry from history.22:52
Dyrconatomreyn: /etc/crypttab has 2 lines. This is the relevant one: sda1_crypt UUID=2f102a94-69e8-45ea-8e66-58ee4c1ca8fb none luks,swap,discard22:53
DyrconaThat was the UUID from the successful blkid.22:53
Dyrconadmesg -T shows no problems that I can see.22:53
ubuntu-matehello22:57
rangemongerword22:58
tomreynDyrcona: so, basically there are two ways you can use encrypted swap. one, which you seem to be trying to use, is to have a static swap partition, which persists across reboots and must be unloicked on boot. The other is to create the swap file system every time you boot, with a random passphrase. This one doesn't require you to enter the passphrase on boot. i do not know how well it works with suspend to disk or RAM. Suspend to RAM is not a23:00
tomreyngood thing to use with full disk encryption.23:00
tomreynDyrcona: ok so the method with the random passphrase doesn't work with suspend to disk (hibernation). and i assume that's what you intend to use.23:03
Dyrconatomreyn: I haven't set up anything up for suspend to disk specifically, so I think I'm doing suspend to RAM.23:04
DyrconaThat may explain why it has locked a couple of times when waking from sleep and something was in swap.23:04
tomreynDyrcona: well, you shouldn't suspend to ram if you plan to have any benefit from FDE. it will store your decryption passphrase (unencrypted) to ram, from where it can be extracted at any time.23:05
tomreynconsider this instead https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Swap_encryption#With_suspend-to-disk_support23:05
tomreynthe guide you used is not the best23:06
tomreynit's also quite old. nowadays you want to use xts encryption23:06
tomreynand ubuntu default to it, too, i think. aes-xts-plain6423:07
Dyrconatomreyn: I didn't use that guide initially. I did it during installation, though it came out weird.23:08
DyrconaI had to coax the installer to get what I wanted.23:08
DyrconaIt looks like I may have to go that route again and just encrypt everything.23:08
DyrconaI didn't want to reinstall because it means reinstalling applications and configuring again.23:09
tomreynjust encrypting swap and nothing else is not overly helpful. it's a good start but really not enough.23:09
DyrconaI encrypted swap and /home. I don't really care about /, but I may have to encrypt it, too.23:10
DyrconaIIRC, the installed didn't seem to like encrypting everything or made it difficult to put /home on the second drive when I asked to encrypt everything.23:10
Dyrconas/installed/installer/23:10
Dyrconatomreyn: Thanks for the suggestions. I guess I'll just reinstall the O/S and deal with the pain. At least I have backups of my data.23:12
tomreynthe installer should offer to setup "full disk encyption with lvm" or something, that's the option your should choose.23:13
DyrconaYeap. I'll give that a shot. Just making a last backup..23:13
tomreynyou can always move /home to the second drive later23:14

elitedevexit23:44
BudgiiThanks guys!23:44
baba_which is better....vmware or virtualbox?23:44
rangemongerimo, vmware is better under a win host and vb is better under a linux host23:44
rangemongerthey also each have a few small things the other does not23:45
BudgiiOkay, i'm not sure which version to download. Im on Budgie.23:45
Budgii(Virtual Box)23:45
rangemongerthe unbuntu one23:45
Budgii16.04, 16.10 or 17.04?23:45
rangemongerwhen did you get budgie?23:46
kostkonBudgii, it's the same23:46
baba_hmmm....I lookd for these in the past and remember seeing that there was a consensus on the question, but I don't remember which was the winner...23:46
kostkonBudgii, regardless of release23:46
BudgiiI've had it for a few weeks rangemonger23:46
rangemonger17.04 is not only the version but the date that that ver of ubuntu came out23:46
BudgiiOkay, ill just get 10.0423:46
Budgii17.04*23:46
hggdh17.04 is no longer supported.23:47
kostkonBudgii, 17.10 which is still supported or even 16.0423:47
BudgiiVirtual box package for different types of linux is what i'm talking about kostkon23:47
rangemonger18.04 cant come soon enough, 17.04 seems really buggy to me23:47
Budgiithere is an i386 and amd64 version, i chose i38623:47

rangemongerthe software stores installer doesnt either23:50
BudgiiThanks!23:50
rangemongeri keep having to use the terminal to launch things via sudo for them to work23:50
BudgiiAMD64 doesn't mean an AMD processor right?23:50
rangemongerit can be intel or amd23:50
BudgiiAwesome. I was going to say I should have an i5, not AMD...23:51
rangemongerits just so called because amd was first to make a x86_64 bit cpu23:51
BudgiiIf it said that, i'd be like ?? with my HP. :P23:51
Budgiigotcha23:51
BenderRodriguezBudgii, the wikipedia page has an explaination why 64bit designation is termed AMD6423:51
rangemongersame reason its i386, i meaning intel23:51
rangemongerintel used to have its own 64bit23:52
rangemongeria6423:52
rangemongerthe itanium cpu23:52
BudgiiThanks BenderRodriguez. I probably won't read it cause i'm feeling lazy about it. xD23:52
rangemongerit only emulated 32bit stuff23:52
rangemongerit failed23:52
BenderRodriguez>:{23:52
rangemongeramd, on other hand, extended x86 to add 64bit23:52
BudgiiThe vm doesn't do 64bit windows?23:53
Guest39207hey guys having problems with wifi, it's hard and soft blocked23:53
rangemongersince it was so successful, intel follwed suit23:53
Guest39207anyone have an idea?23:53
baba_the 'itanic'23:53
rangemongerBudgii: it does23:53

rangemongerin virtualbox?23:54
BudgiiYes.23:54
BudgiiI clicked new and under the options i only see 32 bit versions.23:54
rangemongersure you didnt install the 32bit vb?23:55
BudgiiIll check,when i DL'd it, it opened up the software center.23:55
kostkonrangemonger, looks like it23:55
BudgiiFrom here: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads I downloaded the Ubuntu 17.04, AMD64 option23:56
rangemongeris vt-x on in your bios?23:57
rangemongervb needs vt-x do do 64bit guest os23:57
BudgiiMaybe I didnt, i think i ran the i386 that i first downloaded. I'll give it another shot23:57
rangemongeroh23:57
BudgiiHmm.. still offering 32 bit.23:59
BudgiiIts definitely 64bit machine23:59
rangemongercheck your bios for vt-x23:59
BudgiiWhats that?23:59
Budgiireally dont feel like rebooting right npow23:59
rangemongerhardware virtualization, the vm will see the real cpu23:59
kostkonBudgii, you need to enter your uefi/bios and enable vt-x/amd-v23:59
rangemongerits much faster and 64bit guests need it23:59
BudgiiI don't really need windows so i'll just go with 32bit for now23:59
