| Boyette | anyone who can help with that | 00:03 |
| clincks | 192.168.178.201 | 00:06 |
| rdh | Boyette, says on the site to install via snaps | 00:07 |

| clincks | Ok, I give up for today... Thanks for help | 00:11 |
| sunrunner20 | this is bull crap. How long is "a start job is running for dev-mapper-cryptswap1.device" supposed to take | 00:15 |
| rdh | Boyette, you're going to have to get in touch with a developer over there, but they are warning that it is still Alpha. | 00:16 |
| akem | hm, in Ubuntu 17.10 i changed the dock icon size, but then all my desktop icons(not dock) disappeared :/ any idea to get them back? | 00:17 |
| Boyette | its ok | 00:19 |
| Boyette | if its alpha | 00:19 |
| sunrunner20 | its been 30 min so far... it didn't take 30min to encrypt my entire HDD with bitlocker | 00:22 |
| Geo | Hi - In my GUI, I seem to recall there being someway I can have up to 4 different 'desktop' screens by using some hot keys to switch between them... does what I'm trying to say sound familiar to anyone and, if so, how? | 00:23 |
| BillD73 | Geo: they are called workspaces. | 00:25 |
| akem | Geo, I don't know the keyboard shortcut but you can also switch workspaces using the mouse wheel on the dot matrix of the dock - bottom left. | 00:26 |
| akem | on Ubuntu 17.10 at least... | 00:26 |
| Geo | here we go, found how to enable them in 'Appearance' | 00:27 |
| Geo | thats what I was after. Thanks guys | 00:27 |
| redlegion | alright, i've been trying to work through this suspend/resume issue for a while, and i think i have it narrowed down a bit | 00:36 |
| redlegion | well, for myself anyways | 00:36 |
| redlegion | if i chvt 1 before suspending, i can resume | 00:36 |
| redlegion | and i can type, and the computer operates mostly normally | 00:36 |
| redlegion | but once i chvt 7, it's frozen | 00:36 |
| redlegion | dead frozen | 00:36 |
| redlegion | only resuming on battery, though | 00:37 |
| redlegion | resume on AC is fine | 00:37 |
| TJ- | redlegion: sounds like an ACPI issue; have you tried a custom acpi_osi= ? | 00:39 |
| redlegion | yeah, i've tried a few suggestions | 00:39 |
| redlegion | acpi_osi=linux, acpi_osi='Windows 2013' | 00:39 |
| TJ- | redlegion: best config to be sure the correct acpi_osi is being used, is "apci_osi=! acpi_osi=\"Windows 2013\" " (the ! tells the kernel not to offer any of it's built-in OSIs) | 00:41 |
| TJ- | redlegion: I assume you found "Windows 2013" by searching the PC's ACPI DSDT ? | 00:41 |
| redlegion | no, it was just one of about six suggestions for this issue i've tried | 00:41 |
| redlegion | though the i8042 fix was gold | 00:42 |
| TJ- | redlegion: see my article on the workaround http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html | 00:42 |
| TJ- | redlegion: if it still happens after the correct variation is set, we can dig into the GUI power-manager | 00:43 |

| seth | Does anyone know how to handle kvm-spice app armor bug while using Virt-Manager/Libvirt | 02:01 |
| seth | https://paste.gnome.org/pfpu4tnrz | 02:02 |
| TJ- | seth: does "/etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/" exist? | 02:04 |
| seth | No | 02:05 |
| seth | It's an empty file. | 02:05 |
| TJ- | seth: it is a directory, so are you saying it does exist but there are no files in it? | 02:05 |
| seth | It exists. | 02:06 |
| seth | There's 4 files. | 02:06 |
| TJ- | seth: I think the problem is apparmor hasn't been told about kvm-spice binary, I grepped /etc/apparmor.d/ and 'kvm' is there but not 'kvm-spice' so I think it needs manually adding | 02:09 |
| === Guest14678 is now known as Se7enLC | ||
| TJ- | seth: I *think* this will fix it: sudo sed -r '/\/usr\/bin\/kvm rmix/ i \ \ /usr/bin/kvm-spice rmix,' /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/libvirt-qemu | 02:12 |
| TJ- | seth: errr, no, that will only print the change, not make it! | 02:13 |

| zanshin | kvuser7: We won't know until you ask ... | 03:58 |
| kvuser7 | I need to update it, but it can't. I'll post the errors I'm getting | 04:00 |
| kvuser7 | https://gist.github.com/AedificoLudus/26c67fd319d2a7ad4a3e2a0f75e23cdd | 04:00 |
| zanshin | Did you use `sudo`, as in: `sudo apt-get ...` ? | 04:01 |
| kvuser7 | sudo apt-get update | 04:02 |
| kvuser7 | yeah | 04:02 |
| kvuser7 | should I try again incase? | 04:02 |
| zanshin | what does `ps -ef | grep apt` return? | 04:02 |

| s10gopal | how to disable "hwclock --systohc" during shutdown ? | 04:04 |
| zanshin | OK, so apt isn't already running. In `/var/lib/apt/lists` are there any lock files? | 04:04 |
| kvuser7 | so... cd /var/lib/apt/lists? | 04:05 |
| zanshin | kvuser7: Yes. Then `ls -al` | 04:05 |
| kvuser7 | thats a lot of files | 04:05 |
| zanshin | kvuser7: Try ls -al *lock* | 04:05 |
| kvuser7 | -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Jan 6 07:35 lock | 04:06 |
| kvuser7 | only one now | 04:06 |
| zanshin | Hmm. Not sure that's where the apt lock file is, and I'm not at a Ubuntu bax at the moment. You could tyr `sudo apt update` again | 04:08 |
| kvuser7 | that seems to be working -_- | 04:08 |
| kvuser7 | ok apt-get is in the list | 04:09 |
| kvuser7 | I think it's working? | 04:10 |
| kvuser7 | I love ubuntu for working, but I still know next to nothing about using it beyond the basics | 04:11 |

| MarchHare | Anyone have any good ideas for forcing pulseaudio to just output some sub-audible sine wave continuously, so that it keeps my damnable speaker system awake? | 05:33 |
| MarchHare | My problem doesn't seem to be the idle module or power idle settings on the sound card. Seems to be the sound system it's connected to wanting to idle on silence. | 05:34 |
| bugbunny | MarchHare: Why? It can turn itself back on when it recieves signal? | 05:38 |
| bugbunny | s/can/can't/ | 05:38 |
| bugbunny | Are those battery powered speakers? | 05:39 |
| MarchHare | bugbunny: No, it's a wall-powered sound bar. It takes about 5 seconds to come back on fully if I don't play anything for a minute or two | 05:39 |
| MarchHare | It turns back on just fine, it just takes 3~5 seconds to do it | 05:40 |
| MarchHare | And I don't like that. It's on analog line-out for a reason | 05:40 |
| MarchHare | If I hit play, I want to hear a damn sound as soon as that mouse clicks | 05:40 |
| guiverc | MarchHare: anoise (ambient noise) has lots of audio files (white, grey, coffee) which play on loop; then use pavucontrol to lower volume to that ~inaudible but enough to keep it awake ?? (thought anyway; you could do the same for any app) | 05:41 |
| bugbunny | I was just thinking that | 05:41 |
| MarchHare | guiverc: Might be worth a shot. | 05:41 |
| MarchHare | I'd be fine with just a quiet sine. | 05:41 |
| MarchHare | Apparently sox outputting at -100db isn't enough | 05:42 |
| bugbunny | That was another issue I was thinking about | 05:43 |
| bugbunny | At what level of noise does the speaker turns of and is it smart enough to distiguish different sound | 05:44 |
| bugbunny | MarchHare: It's designed to be energy efficient? I wonder why it has such feature. | 05:44 |
| MarchHare | No clue. Seems to not be a problem when I listen directly to line-out with the phones. Seems to be the sound system. I sent a support request asking how I can turn that off. They'll probably be retards and assume I'm asking how to fix a sync delay. | 05:46 |
| MarchHare | Definitely not a pulseaudio issue. When I watch the loaded apps, as soon as I kill the music with stop, it clears from pulse. When I restart, it appears right back in there immediately. | 05:47 |
| guiverc | MarchHare: script your own -- paplay lets you set volume, create your own sound file, even pavucontrol lets you control volume of playing file, but I'd use paplay --volume, and not have it consistent, just short & regularly enough to keep your sound system awake.. | 05:48 |
| MarchHare | guiverc: I'm trying to figure out how to daemonize it, so I can just run it on boot and leave it on. | 05:49 |
| MarchHare | guiverc: I still have to tune it so it can't be heard by anything but the sound system | 05:50 |
| MarchHare | guiverc: I wonder if the problem isn't that it's idle, but that it's also negotiating a bluetooth wakeup with the sub. | 05:51 |
| MarchHare | And simply doesn't output sound until that happens | 05:51 |
| bugbunny | I was going to ask how it was connected | 05:51 |
| bugbunny | You don't think it's probably at the Interface layer? | 05:51 |
| guiverc | if it were me; I'd just use a background job started @ login (so I could kill, restart if necessary) - a heartbeat type signal every 30 secs maybe (or whatever keeps it alive) | 05:51 |
| MarchHare | bugbunny: Line out to the sound bar. Soundbar connects to the sub via bt | 05:52 |
| bugbunny | oO | 05:52 |
| bugbunny | K | 05:52 |
| guiverc | not manually started at login; script run by login script .bash.. | 05:52 |
| MarchHare | bugbunny: Seems to be solidly an issue with the unit, headphones play sound immediately. | 05:52 |
| mmcn-node1 | 21321 | 05:52 |
| mmcn-node1 | 123123123 | 05:53 |
| mmcn-node1 | 2102.1321 | 05:53 |
| MarchHare | guideline: I think a heartbeat would probably be reasonable. | 05:53 |
| bugbunny | merpnderp: You plug the headphone into the Unit | 05:56 |
| bugbunny | ? | 05:56 |
| bugbunny | merpnderp: Btw, if you come out with a workable solution... Nice to hear about it | 05:57 |
| MarchHare | No, I plugged it into the line-out on the back of the pc (audio source) | 05:57 |
| bugbunny | Ahhh | 05:57 |
| MarchHare | What I need is an old-style tape player I can just plug into the unit and see if I get the same delay | 05:58 |
| bugbunny | I think I have picture in my head | 05:58 |
| MarchHare | Take the PC out of the equation | 05:58 |
| bugbunny | How much did you pay for it? | 05:58 |
| MarchHare | Didn't. Was a gift. | 05:58 |
| bugbunny | MarchHare: You don't have a smart phone? | 05:58 |
| MarchHare | Probably in the $150-$200 range is my guess/ | 05:59 |
| bugbunny | k | 05:59 |
| MarchHare | bugbunny: That's a good idea. | 05:59 |

| pranav | Hi All, Kindly help me how to setup fingerprint in Ubuntu 18.04? | 06:00 |
| pranav | I tried everything on Ubuntu 16.04, 17.10 and 17.04 but not able to use NVIDIA graphic driver. These system even failed to load properly often. Thus I moved to 18.04 build image | 06:01 |
| pranav | The system loads properly but please tell me how to setup NVIDIA graphic driver | 06:01 |
| MarchHare | pranav: Do you need to blacklist the nouveau driver? | 06:01 |
| Ben64 | pranav: 18.04 isn't released yet, for support head over to #ubuntu+1 | 06:02 |
| guiverc | pranav: 18.04 isn't supported yet (beta only) so #ubuntu+1 may be more appropriate | 06:02 |
| pranav | MarchHare: Ubuntu 18.04 ran smoothly without any config changes or side effects. However, nvidia driver is not working, i want to setup? | 06:03 |
| MarchHare | pranav: Google "blacklist nouveau driver ubuntu" and follow the instructions, then try to reinstall your nv drivers | 06:03 |
| pranav | sure | 06:03 |
| MarchHare | pranav: I had a problem with that a few months ago, it was locking up my machine, and not using the real nv drivers even though I had installed them | 06:04 |
| pranav | MarchHare: Can I install two ubuntu 18.04? I don't want to curropt my existing ubuntu with this experiement as it happened with 17.10 and 16.04 | 06:04 |
| Ben64 | pranav: again, #ubuntu+1 for 18.04 support until release | 06:05 |
| bugbunny | pranav: Yes, dual boot | 06:06 |
| MarchHare | Not sure if the audio issue is my sound card or the unit anymore. Seems to kick on pretty quickly when I hit play on my phone after sitting for a few minutes | 06:07 |
| bugbunny | pranav: Any questions specific to 18.04, the other volunteers of the room want's you to move to #ubuntu+1 | 06:07 |
| MarchHare | bugbunny: I don't think his question is specific. | 06:07 |
| bugbunny | pranav: If you need specific how to dual boot, please ask | 06:07 |

| bugzbunny | Okay, that's very liekly a bad port | 06:45 |
| pranav | yes | 06:45 |
| rauno | crap :D | 06:45 |
| bugzbunny | rauno: You can try cleaning it, how old is the laptop? | 06:45 |
| golovin | Всем привет) | 06:45 |
| rauno | thought same, but hoped maybe there's some kind of hope :) | 06:45 |
| rauno | i think 3-4 years heavy usage :) | 06:45 |
| golovin | Hi all. Tell me please software look like Media Get for Ubuntu | 06:46 |
| bugzbunny | rauno: Sometimes removing and inserting peripherals can damage the joins that attach to motherboard | 06:46 |
| bugzbunny | The pin between connectors can get lose | 06:46 |
| rauno | yeah, i know it from usb3, but haven't used much this 2.0 | 06:46 |
| bugzbunny | You can try windows, dows Windows detect it? | 06:46 |
| rauno | so one idea would be to tear it apart and check the connections | 06:47 |
| bugzbunny | s/dows/does/ | 06:47 |
| rauno | will try windows later | 06:47 |
| golovin | you can't help me | 06:47 |
| golovin | ? | 06:47 |
| OhPie | Sup all. So I installed VirtualBox, slapped on Unbuntu's latest. Looks neat. I'm new at this. Any key suggestions of some activiites I can do on this thing that will help me learn more about linux Ubuntu. I figured I'd ask here first. | 06:49 |
| OhPie | I'm going through some of the man pages now. | 06:49 |
| bugzbunny | Not sure of the question? If you want to learn how to USE linux overall, there is TONS of blogs | 06:50 |
| bugzbunny | OhPie: Typically, what specific problem are you having and you need help with? | 06:50 |
| === hw is now known as Guest57773 | ||
| bugzbunny | There is a Ubuntu Guideline thing, that I don't know ! is\ | 06:51 |
| bugzbunny | !guideline | 06:51 |
| OhPie | No problem per se. Just thought I'd get a list of key things you experts would recommend that I try out first. Naturally I'll go onto the web and read the blogs and such. That's all. | 06:51 |
| bugzbunny | OhPie: Well, we are volunteers and typical users just like your self | 06:54 |
| OhPie | undersood, I'll hit the web up, thanks. | 06:54 |
| bugzbunny | OhPie: I personally use UbuntuBugie, it works well, I don't have a particular list of things a new user should do | 06:54 |
| bugzbunny | I think, what's missing, you want? | 06:55 |
| bugzbunny | For the most part, I find program, not perfect, work well enough for me | 06:55 |

| NoCode | Issues with installing 4.16 mainline kernel in Ubuntu Budgie. :/ | 07:44 |
| bugzbunny | NoCode: Only issues is perhaps missing syscall | 07:45 |
| bugzbunny | NoCode: Besides that, there shouldn't be any diffierence, that is impactful than Kernel version 2 - 4 | 07:46 |
| NoCode | https://pastebin.ca/4010307 | 07:46 |
| bugzbunny | That's a package management issue | 07:46 |
| bugzbunny | NoCode: You left out the command line | 07:47 |
| bugzbunny | NoCode: Posting just the error is not very useful than what you did before hand to get the error | 07:48 |
| NoCode | Tried to install both the headers, and image. I put them in a folder, "sudo dpkg -i *.deb". | 07:48 |
| bugzbunny | So, you trying to install kernel from files you downloaded? | 07:48 |
| NoCode | Yes. | 07:49 |
| bugzbunny | I am sorry, I won't support helping you with that | 07:49 |
| bugzbunny | What's wrong with the Kernel you already have? | 07:49 |
| NoCode | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.16/ | 07:49 |
| NoCode | I'm on 4.13. Wanted newer. | 07:50 |
| bugzbunny | I won't help put your system at risk, if you downloaded from there, I don't support it.. Because it bypass checks | 07:50 |
| bugzbunny | NoCode: You just want a new kernel for the sake of having a newer kernel? Try ArchLInux then | 07:51 |
| NoCode | Ok. lol | 07:52 |
| ducasse | NoCode: that's not really a good reason to install an unsupported kernel | 07:59 |

| s10gopal | how to disable "hwclock --systohc" during shutdown ? | 08:24 |
| bugzbunny | s10gopal: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 08:27 |
| s10gopal | bugzbunny, ubuntu 14.04 | 08:28 |
| matrix | buongiorno | 08:32 |
| bugzbunny | s10gopal: I can't help, I am just guessing, upstart | 08:33 |
| cYmen | Does info about failed cron jobs get stored anywhere? | 08:33 |
| bugzbunny | cYmen: /var/log | 08:33 |
| guiverc | s10gopal: i have no idea; maybe /etc/default/hwclock (it overrides some settings found in hwclock.sh | 08:33 |
| cYmen | bugzbunny: uhm...where exactly? :) | 08:34 |
| cYmen | I can't find anything. | 08:34 |
| s10gopal | a user on ##linux is helping me . thx | 08:35 |
| bugzbunny | cYmen: Is this a Server? | 08:35 |
| cYmen | bugzbunny: no, my notebook | 08:35 |
| bugzbunny | cYmen: `What are you running as Cron? btw, you need a Cron deamon? | 08:36 |
| cYmen | I'm just running a random script of mine. Usually works too but when it fails I get no info whatsoever. | 08:37 |
| cYmen | bugzbunny: Is there something else I should be using on a desktop machine? | 08:38 |
| cYmen | or user machine or whatever :r | 08:38 |
| cYmen | :) | 08:38 |
| bugzbunny | You need to be running a Cron deamon, for Cron jobs to work | 08:39 |
| cYmen | Yes, I am running anacron. | 08:39 |
| bugzbunny | ahh | 08:39 |
| bugzbunny | I've used anacron before, but it's been awhile, what is the problem exactly? | 08:40 |
| cYmen | Well, I think I've figured that out now. | 08:40 |
| bugzbunny | For my cron jobs, I have it E-Mail it | 08:40 |
| cYmen | It cannot tell me about failing cronjobs because there is no MTA installed. | 08:40 |
| bugzbunny | But if you ask me how I did that, years ago | 08:40 |
| cYmen | Now I'm trying to figure out if I can redirect that to a log somehow. | 08:40 |
| bugzbunny | Well, AFAIK, correct me if I am wrong, you won't see failurs | 08:41 |
| bugzbunny | You need the program to output a failure | 08:41 |
| bugzbunny | AFAIK, my experience with cron, I never got anything when a program fail, without some output | 08:42 |
| ducasse | cYmen: which release is this? | 08:44 |
| === jstein_ is now known as jstein | ||
| cYmen | ducasse: of what? | 08:44 |
| bugzbunny | What version of Ubuntu | 08:45 |
| ducasse | cYmen: of the os | 08:45 |
| cYmen | why would that matter? :) | 08:45 |
| bugzbunny | Do you need help? | 08:45 |
| bugzbunny | Please do not be osbtacle | 08:45 |
| ducasse | it does matter, if you want answers | 08:45 |
| cYmen | This is a 17.10. | 08:46 |
| ducasse | then try 'journalctl -u cron.service' | 08:47 |
| ducasse | the answer would be different if you were on 14.04, which is why release matters | 08:49 |
| cYmen | Ah, yeah, I already did that, that's how I figured out that it is trying to send me e-mails. | 08:49 |
| cYmen | And apparently that cannot be changed and one has to add redirects to the cron lines. | 08:50 |
| seanh | Woke my computer from suspend this morning and saw the login screen - I had been logged out, and all my apps closed, apparently while the computer was suspended? Can anyone help me get to the bottom of what might have happened here? Tried looking in some log files (e.g. in Gnome Logs) but not seeing any obvious messages about a crash or anything | 09:00 |
| EriC^ | seanh: maybe xorg or something segfaulted | 09:02 |
| EriC^ | seanh: try cat ~/.xsession-errors and sudo grep -iE "error|segfault" /var/log/kern.log | 09:03 |
| seanh | EriC^: Thanks. No ~/.xsession-errors file. In kern.log I see this: | 09:04 |
| seanh | Apr 3 09:54:27 chamlis kernel: [852749.687717] [drm:intel_display_resume [i915]] *ERROR* Restoring old state failed with -22 | 09:04 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: Please bastebin the logs | 09:04 |
| seanh | That's at about the time I turned on the computer this morning | 09:04 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: Has it ever work? | 09:05 |
| seanh | bugzbunny: All of kern.log? | 09:05 |
| seanh | bugzbunny: It usually works yes | 09:05 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: When does stop working? | 09:05 |
| seanh | Here's kern.log: https://pastebin.com/DgfXRuu7 | 09:07 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: So it always worked and it just stopped working? | 09:07 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: Or it never worked? | 09:07 |
| seanh | bugzbunny: Well, I think I've seen this incident a couple of times: When I return to my computer the next day after suspending it over night, it wakes from suspend and it has logged me out. Its pretty rare, it happens maybe once every few weeks. The rest of the time waking from suspend works fine. | 09:08 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: That's not a clue what happened, so, it worked then stopped working? | 09:08 |
| seanh | Most of the time when I suspend the computer and then wake it from suspend it works. Occasionally I find that I've been logged out | 09:09 |
| bugzbunny | K | 09:10 |
| seanh | For example when I woke it from suspend this morning I found that I was logged out. But just now I suspended it for a minute and woke it again - it was fine | 09:10 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: No idea bud, so it sometimes works and sometimes work | 09:10 |
| bugzbunny | That's, Linux | 09:11 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: Now, what's useful, what hardware | 09:11 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: The more information you give, the more helpful please | 09:12 |
| seanh | I'm not sure the issue is with suspend and wake as such. I've seen it do things while it's on and I'm using the computer: it suddenly logs me out, or freezes. It doesn't happen all the time, it happens pretty rarely actually, less than once per week. Has been happening much less often since I switched from Gnome to Openbox too | 09:12 |
| seanh | Here's a pastebin of the lshw command: https://pastebin.com/fGkhzDuW | 09:12 |
| bugzbunny | it suddenly logs me out | 09:12 |
| bugzbunny | I think Display Manager sigfault | 09:13 |
| bugzbunny | I just think.. | 09:13 |
| seanh | It does seem like the sort of thing that could be a display manager issue | 09:13 |
| seanh | I tried Gnome both with Wayland and with X and it had this problem with both. Now using Openbox and the problem seems _much_ rarer but not completely gone. For example this morning: wake from suspend and I'm logged out. WTF? And the things is I've _never_ found a clue in any log file or anything, after one of these crashes | 09:14 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: Use what works? | 09:17 |
| seanh | Is there an easy way for me to find out whether the computer rebooted overnight? | 09:19 |
| tomreyn | "uptime" | 09:19 |
| tomreyn | or just "w" | 09:19 |
| seanh | Ok, uptime says 29 days so I guess it didn't reboot, just logged me out | 09:19 |
| silver_hook | Is there a (good) native client for chat.google.com available in Ubuntu? | 09:19 |
| tomreyn | seanh: i think so. it would be normal for it to suspend after a while of not being used, and to ask for your password when you return. | 09:21 |
| seanh | tomreyn: No, it's not that it locked the screen and asked for my password. It logged me out: desktop session ended, all apps closed. It looks as if something (the display manager, the desktop, ...?) crashed. But I'm just trying to find a clue as to what happened | 09:22 |
| tomreyn | silver_hook: there is yakyak https://github.com/yakyak/yakyak/releases | 09:24 |
| tomreyn | silver_hook: it is probably too new to have made it into ubuntu, though. | 09:25 |
| silver_hook | tomreyn: That’s what I noticed as well. There’s also Rambox, but that’s just an Electron wrapper. | 09:25 |
| tomreyn | seanh: oh, got you wrong there. check "dmesg -T" and /var/log/Xorg.*.log then | 09:26 |
| bugzbunny | I understand the problem | 09:27 |
| bugzbunny | What should be stored in memory | 09:27 |
| seanh | tomreyn bugzbunny There's a "Fatal server error" from gdm-x-session in /var/log/syslog.1 while it was waking from suspend | 09:27 |
| bugzbunny | And when you resume, you got a fresh screen | 09:27 |
| bugzbunny | I understand | 09:27 |
| bugzbunny | Well, if you understand how suspend and resume work | 09:28 |
| tomreyn | seanh: which ubuntu release is this? | 09:28 |
| quint | So I just replaced the TLS certificate on my webdav server, and verified it to be valid using 3 web browsers. Thunar complains that the certificate is not valid. | 09:29 |
| seanh | Here's a section of syslog.1 where "fatal server error" occurs: https://pastebin.com/ccS5pwSi | 09:29 |
| seanh | tomreyn: It's 17.10 | 09:29 |
| rosco | kernel 4.13.0.37 totally hangs my ubuntu 16.04 lts desktop. | 09:30 |
| bugzbunny | tomreyn: I don't use laptops | 09:31 |
| bugzbunny | seanh: I have NO idea | 09:31 |
| rosco | it's a bit scary, I'm in the process of migrating my desktops from fedora to ubuntu, but so far fedora is more stable. I expected the opposite. | 09:31 |
| tomreyn | seanh: if the syslog you posted to https://pastebin.com/DgfXRuu7 is correct then your system also shutoff unexpectedly at or around Apr 2 12:01:12 (your system time zone) | 09:32 |
| Ak1ra | Hi, I want to install Burst wallet, the url is this: https://www.burst-coin.org/download-wallet which leads to http://package.cryptoguru.org/ is there is any way to check that there is no malware in these packages? Thank you! | 09:33 |
| seanh | tomreyn: I don't recall anything failing at that time | 09:33 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: Why do you want to install it? | 09:33 |
| Ak1ra | to have a local wallet and mine the coin in my computer | 09:34 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: Figures | 09:34 |
| seanh | tomreyn: The root partition ran out of disk space yesterday, that may be what the errors at around noon are from. It gave me some full partition errors but didn't crash. I freed up some space yesterday so it's not full anymore. | 09:35 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: Just install it, what is the problem exactly? | 09:35 |
| tomreyn | seanh: ah, okay. it's usually a good idea to reboot if htis happens (after recovering disk space). | 09:35 |
| Ak1ra | bugzbunny I want to check for malware before do it. It looks a mature project but anyway it needs root permission | 09:35 |
| tomreyn | seanh: i assume this explains the ecryptfs errors as well | 09:36 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: I am sorry, this is not Ubuntu problem | 09:36 |
| seanh | tomreyn: I would guess so yes | 09:36 |
| tomreyn | seanh: it doesn't immediately explain why X crashed, but apport will have catched this happening and probably already submitted a bug report for you. | 09:37 |
| Netmage | Does anyone know a picture image viewer that shows only images I selected before and not the whole images in the directory ? | 09:37 |
| seanh | tomreyn: Would there be an apport log file somewhere where I can see what it caught? | 09:37 |
| Ak1ra | bugzbunny So there is no way to check a package for viruses before install? | 09:37 |
| Netmage | When I select 100 pictures and open it with the default image viewer, ubuntu open 100 separate image viewer windows | 09:38 |
| seanh | /var/log/apport.log is empty | 09:38 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: Reliable way, no | 09:38 |
| Ak1ra | bugzbunny Ok I will try windows version with wine which doesn't require root. Thank you! :) | 09:38 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: Look who developer the program | 09:39 |
| tomreyn | Ak1ra: noramlly, the best way is to review the source code, but this is often not an option. so, if you prefer nto to immediately trust the authors, you could just run it in a VM or container (such as lxd). | 09:39 |
| silver_hook | tomreyn: YakYak seems to only support legacy chat (not the newer groups), so that doesn’t work for me. Thanks anyway :) | 09:39 |
| Ak1ra | Ok I will check it, thank you! :) | 09:39 |
| tomreyn | silver_hook: oh, sorry then i don't know. :-/ | 09:40 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: This is the begining | 09:40 |
| silver_hook | tomreyn: No problem. Thanks for your help regardless :) | 09:40 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: You need to do you own research | 09:40 |
| tomreyn | seanh: /var/log/apport.log | 09:40 |
| seanh | tomreyn: that file is empty unfortunately | 09:41 |
| Ak1ra | bugzbunny It looks a mature project, several years old crypto, it exists in exchanges ... but not so popular to trust it like Bitcoin Core :) | 09:41 |
| tomreyn | seanh: probably because your disk ran full ;-) | 09:41 |
| seanh | By the time I suspended it last night, the disk was no longer full, though | 09:41 |
| seanh | But okay, I think I'm just gonna forget about this one, and will try to investigate again the next time it crashes | 09:42 |
| tomreyn | seanh: if you'd liek to prevent such situations in the future, have /home on a separate file system (and maybe /var as well) | 09:42 |
| bugzbunny | Ak1ra: USE it at you own risk | 09:42 |

| bugzbunny | newtolinux: Do know the User system work | 10:19 |
| bugzbunny | ? | 10:19 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: i suspect your use case is that you have a (humans') user account, the "developer account" which does several things on this computer, and one of them is that it places files in locations the webserver will make accessible via https(s)? | 10:19 |

| newtolinux | bugzbunny: sorry, what do you mean when you say web software | 10:24 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: you did not hide this well enough. ;-) what currently feels annoying, the user / group restrictions, actually are an integral part of the linux user space security model, and it's unfortunately mandatory to understand it well to be able to make wise choices and not expose the entire contents of your server (including passwords etc.) to the wrold. so i recommend studying it a little. | 10:25 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: back to your original question: i assume your developer account has the permission to run "sudo". if so, the 'adduser' command i provided above will suffice to make the change. | 10:25 |

| tomreyn | bipul: can you show the output of these commands, please: sudo apt update; apt-cache policy | 10:26 |
| newtolinux | tomreyn: i do understand that, i mainly do work with security sensitive information on the windows side so it's not foreign but making the transition it takes time to understand the depth of how linux does things | 10:27 |
| bugzbunny | newtolinux: We want to help | 10:27 |
| bugzbunny | newtolinux: We not enemies | 10:27 |
| bugzbunny | newtolinux: The more information you give | 10:28 |
| bugzbunny | The better we can help | 10:28 |
| newtolinux | tomreyn: yeah, it has sudo :) | 10:28 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: of course, this will take a while. and besides reading up on it, training is the best way to learn indeed. | 10:28 |
| newtolinux | bugzbunny: sorry you have me confused, i think there's a language barrier here | 10:28 |
| bugzbunny | I was reading | 10:28 |
| bugzbunny | You are being bit asshole | 10:29 |
| newtolinux | eh? | 10:29 |
| bugzbunny | Yes, you were, I was reading | 10:29 |
| tomreyn | bugzbunny: i don't think so, also please mind those words. | 10:29 |
| bugzbunny | But I think we try to help each other | 10:29 |
| bipul | tomreyn, Yes, but could i know what you wants to see in policy? | 10:29 |
| bugzbunny | tomreyn: Difference of opinion | 10:30 |
| tomreyn | bipul: i'm trying to understand which software you use. | 10:30 |
| newtolinux | bugzbunny: please enlighten me on how i was a bit of an asshole? | 10:30 |

| tomreyn | newtolinux: welcome. maybe have a look at this for starters https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 10:33 |
| newtolinux | tomreyn: since you are more versed, what do you suggest to read upon besides user groups? i've covered the basics with password disabled groups, ssh keys and fail2ban yada yada | 10:33 |
| bipul | tomreyn, Please find it here https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/W9wNHwCChT/ | 10:33 |
| shivam_ | hey can anybody help | 10:34 |
| newtolinux | thanks, got that covered too :) | 10:34 |
| shivam_ | how do you create a seperate chatroom for a person with a differnt IP on a different network | 10:34 |
| newtolinux | well, atleast in theory i do, lmao | 10:34 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: try to restrict ssh to just key authentication, disabling password authentication, then you basically dont need fail2ban since brute forcing accounts is much less of an issue. | 10:35 |
| newtolinux | tomreyn: done that too, changed the ports of ssh as well | 10:35 |
| albrecht | newtolinux: one book I might suggest is the Debian Administrators Handbook (it's not Ubuntu, but Ubuntu is based off Debian) - You can find it for free online | 10:35 |
| guiverc | shivam_, i don't see a Ubuntu support question in what you ask, maybe #freenode is more appropriate for your question | 10:36 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Security https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/security.html | 10:36 |
| shivam_ | ok thanks guiverc | 10:36 |
| newtolinux | tomreyn: thanks, that looks juicy | 10:36 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: i'd second albrecht there, too | 10:36 |
| newtolinux | albrecht: i'll have a look, thanks too | 10:37 |
| tomreyn | bipul: okay, this looks fine. i suggest we try to purge postgresql, then solve the existing dpkg configuration issues and then you install all the pending updates and security fixes. | 10:38 |
| bipul | tomreyn, You mean i should reinstall Postgresql? | 10:38 |
| tomreyn | bipul: you are two minor releases behind on security patches, currently ubuntu 16.04 is at 16.04.4 | 10:39 |
| bipul | Okay, then i guess i need to update one more time. | 10:39 |
| tomreyn | bipul: i'll try to guide you: sudo dpkg --purge postgresql-9.5 postgresql-common | 10:40 |
| albrecht | bipul: you need to purge postgresql and fix your dependency issues first | 10:40 |
| bipul | tomreyn, Thank you. Now i understood where is the problem. | 10:40 |
| newtolinux | hmm it appears that I do not have a www group | 10:40 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: www-data usually | 10:40 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: this is what a webserver usually runs as (after dropping permissions) | 10:41 |
| newtolinux | isn't var/www/ usually set to www by default | 10:41 |
| bipul | albrecht, Dependency issue of Postgresql ? | 10:41 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: not on debian derivatives (such as ubuntu), there it's www-data by default | 10:41 |
| newtolinux | so it would be sudo adduser devacc www-data? | 10:42 |
| tomreyn | bipul: i think albrecht is referring to https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/QG56TJdpJv/ where configurations fail to be applied, causing other packes not to configure (and thus install) properly | 10:42 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: correct | 10:42 |
| bipul | s/update/upgrade | 10:42 |
| newtolinux | looking at the directory group of my www it's set to root[0] as group | 10:42 |
| newtolinux | that's what has me confused now | 10:43 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: hmm actually you're right and i'm wrong. | 10:43 |
| bipul | tomreyn, Do you mind to share which package is making obstacle for other package to get install? | 10:44 |
| newtolinux | on ubuntu, the command 'groups' lists all the existing groups? correct? | 10:45 |
| newtolinux | or is that only the ones existing for the specific account that executed the cmd | 10:46 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: yes, "groups" lists all groups the executing user is part of. | 10:46 |
| newtolinux | doesn't seem like www is a group | 10:46 |
| newtolinux | or www-data | 10:46 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: you can provide another user as an argument, e.g. "groups www-data" | 10:47 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: do you have a webserver installed already? | 10:47 |
| newtolinux | yeah, running apache2 | 10:47 |
| tomreyn | hmm i eexpected this to provide the www-data user. | 10:47 |
| newtolinux | afaik it should | 10:47 |
| tomreyn | getent groups | grep www | 10:47 |
| tomreyn | getent group | grep www | 10:48 |
| tomreyn | ^ typo fixed | 10:48 |
| newtolinux | www-data:x:33: | 10:48 |
| newtolinux | does exist | 10:48 |
| tomreyn | so this gourp does exist | 10:48 |
| tomreyn | *group | 10:48 |
| newtolinux | weird that root would not be assigned to it | 10:48 |
| tomreyn | not at all. root is only part of the root group, and it should remain this way. | 10:49 |
| newtolinux | or perhaps root will just list root, as it's superior | 10:49 |
| newtolinux | gotcha | 10:49 |
| tomreyn | usually you also don't add other users to the "root" group | 10:50 |
| tomreyn | you want to have a proper seperation between this superior user and less powerful users, thats why | 10:50 |
| newtolinux | yeah, i think i just misunderstood it | 10:50 |
| newtolinux | i tought it would list all additional groups outside of root | 10:51 |
| bipul | !info sysstat | 10:51 |

| tomreyn | "it" being? | 10:51 |
| newtolinux | when you ran groups cmd, i tought it would list additional groups beside root | 10:52 |
| newtolinux | ex root, www-data, foobar | 10:52 |
| tomreyn | bipul: the root cause seems to be "post-installation script returned error exit status 10" for packages sysstat and postgresql-common | 10:53 |
| bipul | Yes, i think the problem is here status half-configured sysstat:amd64 11.2.0-1ubuntu0. | 10:53 |
| tomreyn | bipul: do you mind loosing the existing systat history? if not: sudo dpkg --purge sysstat; sudo dpkg --configure -a; sudo apt -f install | 10:55 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: oh okay. no it does not. | 10:55 |
| bipul | Nah, i don't mind. Since it's not a production server. | 10:55 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: just those of the current user. | 10:55 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: are you into man pages, yet? | 10:55 |
| tomreyn | bipul: alright, then give those commands a try, and please post their output | 10:56 |
| newtolinux | tomreyn: have a few tabs open or do you mean in the terminal? also still struggling with permissions even after adding it to www-data | 10:57 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: in the temrinal | 10:57 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: about the permissions struggle, can you tell more about what you'Re trying to achieve? | 10:57 |
| === sebastian is now known as Guest14727 | ||
| newtolinux | tomreyn: not sure if it tells you much but to simplify my work i'm using winscp on the windows side, however i'm not able to do anything with the www dir, i'm thinking it's either a group issue or simply because i have to enforce sudo on the winscp commands somehow | 10:59 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: a common use case is to have a users' files automatically exposed to the web. you could create a subdirectory /home/devuser/web and have this setup as a directory the webserver can access. | 10:59 |
| Guest14727 | How can I hide traditional .deb packages from 18.04 gnome software center and see only flatpak? | 11:00 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: you should probbaly try to keep the files in the users' directory (and have them read yb the webserver from there) and just ignore /var/www then | 11:00 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: that'S unless the plan is to work on these files with multiple users? | 11:00 |
| igrom | Hi #ubuntu. I have a xorg.conf/libinput/libwacom problem - am ignorant enough not to be able to scope it down. (cont.) | 11:01 |
| newtolinux | tomreyn: as it looks right now for educational purpose it follows as var/www/html/example.com/public_html/ | 11:01 |
| newtolinux | if i understand you right that's what you mean with a a non root www configuration | 11:02 |
| igrom | I have an HP Spectre X360, which has a touchscreen and an alloted stylus (see [1]). I have recently begun to use the stylus. The movement is tracked perfectly when the pen touches the screen, but when hovering, there is a 5mm dead zone around the cursor. If I move the pen within it, the cursor won't budge. [1] http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/gkRgGZJ3Kb/ | 11:04 |
| newtolinux | example.com being a vhost but i think you know that | 11:04 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: you can use this directory structure. but if you'll be the only web developer pushing updates to this system your life will be easier if you just reconfigure the webserver in terms of adding a new virtualhost with a document root pointing to a subdirectory of your home directory. i .e. DocumentRoot /home/devuser/web | 11:05 |
| igrom | I am trying to make X load the wacom driver for the pen by fiddling with xorg.conf | 11:05 |
| igrom | according to this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/SurfaceLinux/comments/3mu28a/sp3_pen_tip_button_working/ | 11:05 |
| igrom | it's for a different pen/laptop, but another resource reported that it works for what I have. | 11:05 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: or "DocumentRoot /home/devuser/html/example.com/public_html" if you prefer | 11:05 |
| igrom | Now, I have the following files in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TWbc2zrSwK/ | 11:06 |
| igrom | 39-wacom.conf was 70.wacom before. I moved it. | 11:06 |
| newtolinux | tomreyn: to change this, do i simply point the vhost to said directory? | 11:07 |
| igrom | Contents of 39-wacom.conf [1] and 40-libinput.conf [2]. [1] http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4gZcpMfwgW/ [2] http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wQD7WpGj3J/ | 11:07 |
| igrom | My first question is: is /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf the right place to make my changes to xorg.conf? | 11:08 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: this way, you'll only need to upload files to that directory and they'll already be owned by your devuser. you can then make those files either world readable, so by anyone on the system, or, better, group readable and ensure the webserver can access these files (by adding ot to your devuiser gruop) | 11:08 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: you'd porint the DocumentRoot of the vhriotualhost to this directory, yes. | 11:08 |
| tomreyn | vhriotualhost -> VirtualHost | 11:09 |

| tomreyn | newtolinux: welcome. and don't forget to undo the group memebership of devuser in www-data if you'll take the approach we last discussed. to remove devuser off the www-data group, you'd do: sudo deluser devuser www-data | 11:12 |
| bipul | yes. | 11:13 |
| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 11:13 |
| tomreyn | newtolinux: oh and what i emant to say about man pages: install the "man-db" package (sudo apt update; sudo apt install man-db), then you can run "man group" (quit by pressing 'q') or man anything to get help on commands. | 11:14 |
| tomreyn | bipul: can you show their output, too, then? you can run them again, if needed. | 11:14 |
| bipul | I am sorry i have closed the terminal. Also after that i try to reinstall sysstat package | 11:16 |

| Guest34025 | join #sex | 11:21 |
| Guest34025 | hi | 11:22 |
| tomreyn | vadi: there are drive layer (hardware / firmware), block device layer (such as dmcrypt-LUKS) and file system layer (such as ecryptfs, zfs, ext4) encryptions. | 11:23 |
| bipul | tomreyn, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/VgVnFCS3x2/ Please find the link. | 11:23 |
| bugzbunny | newtolinux: I had computer issue | 11:24 |
| * bugzbunny is reading | 11:24 | |
| vadi | tomreyn: I have no idea. I setup encryption when installing Ubuntu, so whatever that uses | 11:24 |
| tomreyn | bipul: okay, moving further: sudo dpkg --purge unattended-upgrades postgresql-9.5 postgresql-contrib-9.5 postgresql-contrib postgresql | 11:28 |
| bipul | What this command is for? and what will it do? | 11:29 |
| tomreyn | vadi: it offers both full disk encryption using dm-crypt-luks (which then also requires you to use lvm) as well as home directory encryption ("encrypt my home directory") using ecryptfs. | 11:29 |
| bipul | And i see the next problem is with grub-pc | 11:30 |
| rmoore | Are there any Ubuntu apps for remotely running security sweeps on networked machines? | 11:30 |
| tomreyn | bipul: you currently have packages which are not properly installed, breaking apt and thus any further package installations and removals using apt. these commands try to delete the packages with broken configurations in an attempt to restore apt functionality. | 11:30 |
| bugzbunny | tomreyn: I have a smile in my face | 11:31 |
| * bugzbunny steps out | 11:31 | |
| tomreyn | bipul: correct, grub-pc is also listed. i chose not to recommend to purge grub-pc just yet since it would make your computer unbootable. | 11:31 |
| bipul | tomreyn, exactly, from sysstat now it becomes grub-pc | 11:32 |

| bipul | Which is the matter concern, anyway after executing your given command, i got this dpkg: error processing package postgresql-9.5 (--purge): | 11:33 |
| tomreyn | bipul: i will need the entire output if you'd like more assistence with this matter. | 11:34 |
| tomreyn | bipul: the matter is that your ubuntu installation is currently effectively broken. | 11:34 |
| vadi | tomreyn: the home directory, I think. | 11:35 |
| tomreyn | you cannot install (or have installed) security updates, you cannot install or remove packages normally | 11:35 |
| bipul | tomreyn, here it's https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TyRMqgcFK9/ | 11:36 |
| tomreyn | vadi: with both types of software encryption (those two you can choose form the ubuntu installer), your ability to decrypt the data will not be lost when moving the storage (SSD) to a different computer. you may need to apply configuration changes on the OS running on the destination system, however. | 11:37 |
| vadi | great, thanks | 11:38 |
| tomreyn | bipul: this system is in a very broken state, probably beyond repair. i recommend a reinstall. | 11:39 |

| fSharp | hello, my encrypted luks partition rejects my correct password. after having tried all sorts of things to find the reason and open it, I can only reduce it down to two causes; 1. clipboard pasted the password incomplete (I saw that it happened with pasted passwords on gedit) 2. gnome disks on ubuntu 17.10. errorenously created the encrypted partition. have you had such experiences with these? | 12:16 |
| francisv | tomreyn: thanks for the suggestion. | 12:16 |
| ShishKabab | igrom: It did work for a bit at first, but not anymore. Also not on the LiveCD. Maybe worth mentioning that when it did work, it worked on and off. | 12:16 |
| ShishKabab | It does work in the BIOS though. | 12:17 |
| tomreyn | ShishKabab: there's nothing special on this log. I don't have experience with touchpad debugging but there is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad in case it helps | 12:17 |

| ShishKabab | tomreyn: Just came across the touchpad detection debugging. Doesn't even show up in the /proc/bus/input/devices , so it must be something serious. | 12:18 |
| bugzbunny | I am sorry, I can't help you igrom | 12:18 |

| bugzbunny | I don't have knowledge to help | 12:19 |
| ioria | ShishKabab, maybe it wont solve the issue, but i'd start upgrading the system ; sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade and reboot | 12:19 |

| bugzbunny | igrom: I hope you stop | 12:20 |
| tomreyn | fSharp: i'm not aware of a general issue with full disk encryption in 17.10, but i'm not aware of that much ;-) did you try a web search to see whether it's a generic issue? | 12:20 |
| bugzbunny | I was reading but I feel like igrom is monitoring me? | 12:22 |
| tomreyn | ShishKabab: i'm not sure whether this connects to the usb, but you could try for yourself whether it's listed there: lsusb; and if it is, you can run lsusb -vv to get more information on its signalling and power supply/draw. (there may be a page on usb debugging as well) | 12:22 |
| fSharp | tomreyn, no, but generally I know gnome disks has had issues | 12:23 |
| tomreyn | fSharp: so, i'm just trying to understand: one of your attempts to explain that there is a dmcrypt-luks encrypted device which you do not have the correct passphrase for is that gnome disks (why this software specifically?) erroneously created a partition that is encrypted? | 12:24 |
| fSharp | tomreyn, sorry, for your question about web search, yes, I did a bit, but not find really cases of this kind | 12:24 |
| fSharp | tomreyn, if you read my first post, I've written I have the correct passphrase | 12:25 |
| bugzbunny | It's open source | 12:25 |
| bugzbunny | What software | 12:25 |
| bugzbunny | fSharp: What is not working? | 12:26 |

| tomreyn | fSharp: i'm afraid i can not provide more insight into what may have created the situation you have now. i assume you have been adivsed (and probably already knew) that it's mandatory to have current, complete, and restorable backups before doing any kind of storage layer modifications. | 12:43 |

| pikapika | Not touching the perms in wine folder of course | 13:53 |

| oneirosFade | BBIAB, tomreyn, thanks | 13:55 |
| bugzbunny | If you not scard | 13:56 |
| pragmaticenigma | pika pika... for a folder intended to be shared by multiple users, it would be better to change the group ownership of the folder and it's contents to a group that all users are a member of. Then change the group permissions to RW if they are not alerady set that way | 13:58 |
| pragmaticenigma | pikapika ^ ^ | 13:58 |
| pikapika | Hm yes this sounds like a much better idea. Thank you! | 13:59 |
| pragmaticenigma | pikapika, Also, I'd read up on stickybits... which will help you set the folder permissions for new files to inherit the group setting | 14:00 |
| pikapika | Thanks, I will look into it | 14:00 |
| tomreyn | oneirosFade: sorry, took me a while. i needed to learn again how to make steam not use some of its bundled libraries. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/4768 discusses this to a degree, also https://askubuntu.com/questions/614422/problem-with-installing-steam-on-ubuntu-15-04 in more detail | 14:00 |
| tomreyn | oneirosFade: steam has this general issue that they try to be compatible to everything with a single steam release, whereas normally you'd provide separate packages specific to the target system (e.g. ubuntu 17.10 would get slightly different software packages with different dependencies than 16.04 normally). | 14:03 |
| tomreyn | oneirosFade: so steam bundles some libraries which are an attempt to work with any linux distribution and version. this fails miserably overall, but sometimes works to a degree. a possible workaround is to remove / rename those bundles libraries which can also be provided (and in much better quality) by your OS. this is what these posts discuss, and there is a relevant chance that doing so will fix the mesa / X issue you're seeing. | 14:05 |

| tomreyn | askubuntu id 614422 if that's what you're referring to | 15:08 |
| oneirosFade | Ah, yep, my bad | 15:10 |
| tomreyn | Sven_vB: that's a standard full disk encryption (FDE) use case, i guess. although if it's a classic USB stick then this memory supports limited writes, and FDE is maybe not so suitable there. | 15:10 |
| tomreyn | Sven_vB: if it's rather storage cells like those of moden SSDs then this will be fine, | 15:11 |
| tomreyn | Sven_vB: just choose the full disk encryption option from the installer while installing to it. | 15:12 |
| Sven_vB | tomreyn, it's a largs (128 GB) USB thumb drive | 15:13 |
| tomreyn | tomreyn: this usually suggests modern storage technology, but it's not really possible to tell for sure based on the storage capacity. | 15:13 |
| Sven_vB | tomreyn, will the FDE install encrypt just the partitions I select for install, and leave the other ones untouched? | 15:14 |
| === blackflo1 is now known as blackflow | ||
| tomreyn | Sven_vB: guided partitioning with the FDE option will create two partitions: one for /boot, unencrypted, with a file system directly on it. and a second, where it will place a single encryption layer, make this an LVM PV, and create LVM LVs for the remaining file systems. | 15:16 |
| tomreyn | Sven_vB: whether or not your installation will replace existing partitions on the same storage device is a separate question asked early in the installation process. | 15:16 |
| Sven_vB | sounds like I should reorder partitions so they're /boot, then all my system partitions, then my data sync partitions; then verify the data sync partitions' data; then merge all system partitions into one big partition that will be replaced with the encryption container. right? | 15:18 |
| Sven_vB | s/sounds like/if I understand that correctly,/ :) | 15:20 |

| Sven_vB | yeah I always partition upfront in gparted because it can show me partition labels, whereas Ubiquity expects me to deal with numbers | 15:24 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: hopefully you don't. what makes you think you have multiple? | 15:25 |
| elichai2 | https://pastebin.com/jrmn3DwA | 15:26 |
| elichai2 | I have multiple gcc/g++ versions that I switch between with update-alternatives | 15:26 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: so you're referring to header files for development? | 15:26 |
| elichai2 | what do you mean? | 15:27 |
| R13ose | Hi | 15:27 |
| elichai2 | tomreyn: | 15:28 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: libstdc++6:amd64 and libstdc++6:i386 are the libc6 libraries which match your current system (for two different architectures in this multiarch system). you also have three different libstedc++*-dev packages installed, which are used to develop software. | 15:28 |
| tomreyn | Sven_vB: makes sense to me, ttyl. | 15:29 |
| elichai2 | tomreyn: oh yeah, i'm sorry. I just have a linker error connected to glibc so I thought maybe it's the wront libstdc and I couldn't find how to check/change | 15:30 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: i would think this depends much on the linker error you're getting and the compiler and linker you're using. ;-)= | 15:31 |
| elichai2 | /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libsecp256k1.a(libsecp256k1_la-secp256k1.o): undefined reference to symbol '__fprintf_chk@@GLIBC_2.3.4' | 15:31 |
| niozerotoo | Hi there. | 15:32 |
| niozerotoo | Does anyone know of a replacement to the Windows program "DSpeech" for Ubuntu? | 15:33 |
| niozerotoo | It's a speech synthesis manager, you can enter text and switch voices by using different hashtags, I believe. | 15:33 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: do you have libglib2.0-dev installed? | 15:33 |
| === nacc_ is now known as nacc | ||
| elichai2 | hmm by a quick search looks like no. only bin,data,and the regular package | 15:35 |
| tomreyn | niozerotoo: i think espeak and festival and the most mature spech synthesis packages (but i may be missing others). | 15:36 |
| akem | I don't understand the auto-hide of the dock in Ubuntu 17.10, you have to move Windows out or resize them smaller to get it to displays :/ It would be much more usefull with few pixels border that will pop it up full when the mouse is over it, i mean usual autohide. :/ | 15:37 |

| niozerotoo | tomreyn: thank you. Are these engines or full softwares for writing scripts that are played ? | 15:37 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: i'm not actually sure whether that's the cause, but it may be. "sudo apt install build-essential" if you'd like to build C/C++ software. | 15:38 |
| elichai2 | tomreyn: tried to install it and recompile both libsecp256k1 and my app and same error | 15:38 |
| elichai2 | btw, build-essential was already installed | 15:39 |
| tomreyn | niozerotoo: engines, but there is software which builds on them, i just provided these engines as a starting point for your further investigation. ;-) | 15:39 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: which ubuntu release are you runnning, and can you point me to the source code of the software you are trying to build? | 15:40 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: run "lsb_release -ds" for the first answer | 15:41 |
| elichai2 | 17.10, the thing is I'm trying to run it inside intel SGX Enclave | 15:41 |
| tomreyn | elichai2: i have no experience with intel SGX Enclave, and i guess this is most likely outside of ubuntu support. you could try asking in #ubuntu-app-devel, though | 15:43 |
| elichai2 | ok. I'll try doing that outside of the enclave. thanks anyway | 15:44 |
| Shishire | I have a server that's missing the adm group in /etc/group. Which package installs/owns that group? | 15:51 |
| tomreyn | Shishire: i believe the installer puts these files in place. the templates are provided by base-passwd. | 15:56 |
| tomreyn | Shishire: which ubuntu release is this? lsb_release -ds | 15:57 |
| tomreyn | Shishire: how did you install it? | 15:57 |
| nacc | tomreyn: yeah that sounds right | 15:57 |
| Shishire | I didn't install it, I inherited it. I did find base-passwd, which gave me the info I needed to fix it | 15:57 |
| Shishire | Oh, and 10.04 | 15:58 |
| Shishire | Bah | 15:58 |
| tomreyn | Shishire: you are funny | 15:58 |

| Shishire | Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS | 15:58 |
| Shishire | Yeah | 15:58 |
| tomreyn | so i assume you found /usr/share/base-passwd/group.master | 15:58 |
| Shishire | So, I've solved my problem, now I'm just left scratching my head wondering how the previous admin managed to delete adm | 15:59 |
| Shishire | Yeah | 15:59 |
| tomreyn | still, this user missing is weird enough to make me think you should reinstall it | 15:59 |

| repys | I had a RAID1 in my computer and suddenly I got that the system didn't start anymore. at the boot it didn't find the efi boot file from both disks. few hours before I changed power supply of my computer, I am not sure if that would be related to. but my question is, I can't see any bad sector from smartctl from both disks. 1. what could be it happe | 16:03 |
| repys | ns to these disks? 2. can smartctl see if there problems in the first sectors of the disk (where efi files are)? | 16:03 |

| repys | EriC^: now I attached the disk with a usb adapter and I can read files from there | 16:12 |

| gatekeeper2018 | can anyone help with a connection issue please? | 16:37 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: you need to edit pghba.conf and do stuff i forget every time i haven't looked for it for a week. | 16:38 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: postgresql 9.1 https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/auth-pg-hba-conf.html | 16:39 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, I have done: host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5 but it still won't let me in | 16:39 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: what is listen_address set to? | 16:40 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, "*" | 16:40 |
| rscheideman | 0 | 16:41 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: can you run "nc -vv 127.0.0.1 5432" locally? | 16:41 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: and can you run "nc -vv POSTGRESQL_IP 5432" from another computer (replacing POSTGRESQL_IP by the LAN / public ip address of the postgresql server) | 16:43 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, local one worked# | 16:44 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: actually add -4 to both 'nc' commands. | 16:44 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: if it works onlcy locally but not remotely, try the "remote" command ("nc -vv -4 POSTGRESQL_IP 5432") on the postgresql server, too. does this work? | 16:47 |
| === jan is now known as Guest97777 | ||
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, I am using a windows machine as my main pc so nc does not work | 16:50 |

| R13ose | tomreyn: the issue might have resolved itself | 16:53 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: tell me what the web browser does then | 16:53 |
| tomreyn | R13ose: they rarely do, what makes you think so? | 16:54 |
| R13ose | tomreyn: I am not seeing the + sign being typed out but I might be wrong | 16:54 |
| tomreyn | R13ose: okay i hope it stays this way. good luck. | 16:55 |

| kashi2018 | Good Morning | 16:57 |
| newbie1 | Hi, can anyone tell me how to permanently keep a program running in taskbar? | 16:57 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, may be I install postgres on my windows PC? | 16:58 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: please run this in the VM and keep it running: while true ; do nc -l -p 8000 -c 'echo -e "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\n\n $(date)"'; done | 16:58 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: then access http://ubuntu:8000/ from windows - does it load? | 16:59 |
| kashi2018 | can anyone tell me how do i move ubuntu 16.04 task bar from left to bottom of the screen? | 16:59 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, ok done that | 17:00 |
| EriC^ | kashi2018: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2016/03/ubuntu-16-04-move-unity-launcher-to-bottom/ | 17:00 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: what happens when you acces sit form the web browser? does it finish loading? | 17:00 |
| kashi2018 | @Eric Thank you | 17:00 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, same as before | 17:00 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: so your windows is unable to reach the ubuntu VM using the hostname of "ubuntu". this is an issue on the host / virtualization you will need to solove first of all. | 17:01 |
| R13ose | newbie1: can't you right click the program and say keep? | 17:02 |
| newbie1 | well I can add to favorites but this is a program designed to run in taskbar so I have to open it every time | 17:03 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, I had it connecting to a MySQL database although the connection was very ropey using ubuntu as the server name | 17:03 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: usually this is solved by configuring a bridge rather than a host-only or NAT network configuration on the virtualization software. the details are off topic for this channel, check with your virtualizations' support channels. | 17:03 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, I have a bridge already. :-) | 17:03 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: one more explanation might be that you've configured a firewall / iptables on the VM | 17:04 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: "sudo iptables -L" should tell | 17:04 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: also try accessing it by ip address rather than "ubuntu" hopstname, since this may not work as well | 17:05 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, they all say policy accept | 17:06 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, firefox is broken on the local VM so I need to fix that | 17:06 |
| R13ose | newbie1: what happens when the program is open and you right click the program in the taskbar? | 17:06 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: how do you manage the ubuntu VM, through a console the virtualization provides itself or do you connect to it through ssh? | 17:07 |
| newbie1 | it gives me settings/quit options but settings doesn't give me any option to pin it | 17:07 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, I am using VM Player | 17:07 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: this doesn't answer the question, though. :) | 17:08 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: let me try this: do you use putty to connect to the server, or just VMware Player? | 17:08 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, don't use putty | 17:09 |
| kashi2018 | can anyone tell me how do install MFCJ4620 Brother scanner drivers that are only available in .rpm for my Asus x386-64. I am able to install Printer drives successfully because it was debian file. | 17:09 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, just VMPlayer | 17:09 |
| kashi2018 | I am using ubuntu 16.04. I have a post this in Hardware thread. | 17:10 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: okay, i think your network configuration is wrong, seek help from vmware player on windows support channels, then come back here for ubuntu support. | 17:10 |
| gatekeeper2018 | tomreyn, ok thanks | 17:11 |
| tomreyn | gatekeeper2018: problem description: you are unable to establish a TCP connection from your windows host to the VMWare Player guest (running Ubuntu) | 17:11 |

| oneirosFade | I see that lefty, thank you | 17:39 |
| tomreyn | oneirosFade: but since dpkg isn't sware of it, i guess it means you no longer have this package installed, and the file was left there somehow (or placxed there by you manually) | 17:41 |

| Sbur3 | R13ose: Got one to suggest? I tried looking at Calligra Stage, but Calligra is said to have been discontinued, so I'm a little at a loss. It's the presentation that was shown at my father's funeral | 18:23 |

| Sbur3 | tomreyn: I don't like seeing things crash, but I'd rather not share as the pptx is the presentation that was shown at my father's funeral service | 18:24 |

| nacc_ | kasper: that's not currently how things work, but one moment | 20:30 |
| kasper | nacc_ maybe a mirror would do it | 20:31 |
| tomreyn | kakashiAL: sure, but restarting will most likely not make a difference now. | 20:31 |
| kasper | on github preferrably | 20:31 |
| nacc_ | kasper: ... a mirror of what? | 20:31 |
| nacc_ | kasper: https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+git | 20:31 |
| kasper | mirror of apt git repo | 20:31 |
| tomreyn | kakashiAL: i think you will probbaly need to reinstall, since the operation you seem to have applied using testdisk basically seems to have scranmbled your data | 20:31 |
| nacc_ | kasper: i don't think you understand what you're asking | 20:31 |
| nacc_ | kasper: 'apt git repo' is the source package repository, afaik, because apt is a native package on Debian and ubuntu | 20:32 |
| nacc_ | kasper: the above would work, or you can search yourself for Debian's git repo, if you want | 20:32 |
| nacc_ | kasper: neither would be on github, because well why would they be | 20:32 |
| kasper | nacc_, i am pretty sure i understand what i am asking | 20:32 |
| nacc_ | kasper: do you know what a source package is? | 20:32 |
| kasper | search for 'mirror' | 20:32 |
| kakashiAL | tomreyn: is there a way to get internet access on that laptop and is a normal "apt-get install" enough to fix my problem? | 20:32 |
| nacc_ | kasper: not sure if that was directed at me | 20:35 |
| tomreyn | kakashiAL: for the first question: you should be able to use a live / installer iso written to a usb stick / pen drive / cdrom / dvd-rom to get online with a captive portal (your friends' internet access). but i seriously doubt that just running "sudo apt update && sudo apt -f install" will fix any problems. | 20:35 |
| kakashiAL | tomreyn: okay, let me see if I can find an usb stick | 20:36 |
| tomreyn | kakashiAL: more precisely, it may fix some problems but probably not all the problems you created when using testdisk. | 20:36 |

| TJ- | Kashi2018: does "lsusb" list it? | 23:01 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: | 23:02 |
| notadrop | When I use firejail on Firefox in Ubuntu, the browser can't access the Internet. It can, however, still access pages on the local host and the LAN. Using the firefox.profile config file from Debian makes no difference. Firefox + firejail worked on Debian. Any ideas? | 23:02 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ yes, so far wifi is working and i can do browsing. I am not aware of command line interface, start learning yesterday. | 23:02 |
| Kashi2018 | so ctrl+Alt + T bring Terminal where i can do commands | 23:03 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: open a 'Terminal' and then do "sudo apt install pastebinit" so we can collect some info | 23:03 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ Thanks | 23:03 |
| OnkelTem | Hi all | 23:04 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: once that is installed do "pastebinit <( uname -a; cat /etc/issue; lspci -nnk; lsusb; dmesg )" and give us the URL | 23:04 |
| OnkelTem | It seems like on (K)ubuntu 17.10 VLC is broken. It doens't play all the files, it hangs, it doesn't play sound on some videos. | 23:04 |
| OnkelTem | Can anybody confirm? | 23:05 |
| OnkelTem | How to install some GOOD version of VLC? | 23:05 |
| OnkelTem | and not this crap | 23:05 |
| TJ- | OnkelTem: vlc does a lot of debug messages in the terminal, so start it from terminal and capture the log. "vlc |& tee /tmp/vlc.log" | 23:06 |
| OnkelTem | https://i.gyazo.com/e18bdbadc0df2bd750aac89c35ed5b2f.png | 23:06 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: i cannot confirm or deny this, but if you're looking for a different version you can look for a PPA, i bet there are several. | 23:06 |
| CarlFK | zBrains: sorry, dinner arrived. there is a #pidgin chan - might want to try there | 23:06 |
| tomreyn | oh it says there where the problem is | 23:07 |
| tomreyn | "nvidia" | 23:07 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ here is the url http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/nXdXFBR6Gr/ | 23:07 |
| notadrop | heh | 23:07 |
| OnkelTem | ops | 23:07 |
| OnkelTem | How to disable hw decoding? | 23:07 |
| tomreyn | vdpau support has never been really stable i think | 23:07 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, I don't think firefox is the problem. If you can access local network items and localhost, it sounds like to me that firejail is misconfigured to only allow local network | 23:08 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: thanks, give me a few minutes to do some research | 23:08 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: that's exactly my thinking | 23:08 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: so it is an issue with ubuntu's packaging of firejail, I think. I will try installing from upstream... | 23:08 |
| OnkelTem | found already! | 23:08 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, I'd stick to the package provided... we can help you with that | 23:09 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: okay | 23:09 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ sure. | 23:09 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: where you ticked it, tick it again https://wiki.videolan.org/images/thumb/VLC_GPU.png/781px-VLC_GPU.png | 23:09 |
| tomreyn | oh yuo found it | 23:09 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: trying now my video file | 23:09 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, do you have multiple network connections? Like Ethernet and Wifi, or multiple ethernet ports | 23:10 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: the camera is found: "input: USB Camera: USB 2.0 UVC HD Webc as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2:1.0/input/input18" | 23:10 |
| ajkthx | hey guys, what would be the fastest possible transfer method for files across LAN for ubuntu to windows (and vice versa)? ive tried samba and ftp and they both top out at like 5-10mb/s for some reason | 23:11 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: do " ls -l /dev/video*" and it should list the device node as something like "/dev/video0" | 23:11 |
| OnkelTem | No guys, nvidia was not in charge. I've disabled tw decoding but it's the same. | 23:11 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: only ethernet on this machine | 23:12 |
| OnkelTem | hw* | 23:12 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: ^ | 23:12 |
| IntelCore | ajkthx can you move files with a drive? | 23:12 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, no other network interfaces that aren't in use? | 23:12 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: maybe check with the vlc folks directly | 23:12 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: correct | 23:12 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: or provide full output (not just a screen shot) of the messages | 23:12 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: wait | 23:12 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ yes it did show that but what application can i use to invoke camera? | 23:12 |
| ajkthx | @IntelCore no it has to be over lan | 23:13 |
| IntelCore | cheese | 23:13 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: ethernet is active, wifi is unavailable, loopback is unmanaged | 23:13 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: maybe loopback is the issue....? | 23:13 |
| rdh | notadrop, do you have grsecurity set up | 23:13 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: to test the camera do the following: "sudo apt install vlc" then to run the camera try "vlc v4l2:///dev/video0" --- after proving the camera works then any video-aware application can be used with it by telling the application to access the /dev/video0 device | 23:13 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, what happens if you run the command "firejail ping 8.8.8.8" | 23:13 |
| notadrop | rdh: only if it was automatically set up when I installed. | 23:13 |
| rdh | https://firejail.wordpress.com/documentation-2/grsecurity-notes/ | 23:14 |
| rdh | notadrop, yea.. idk if it does. | 23:14 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ I am sure it will take me loads of time to customize 16.04 desktop and have all the applications i would need and functional same as MS windows. | 23:14 |
| notadrop | does Ubuntu ship with grsecurity by default? I know it uses apparmour | 23:14 |
| IntelCore | ajkthx - lan have share.. use it? | 23:14 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: do you have any other non standard options eenabled? anything tagged experimental? maybe mv ~/.config/vlc{,.orig} | 23:14 |
| tomreyn | notadrop: it doesn't use grsec by default. | 23:15 |
| notadrop | okay | 23:15 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: full output https://apaste.info/RoE5 | 23:15 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: no, I don't have anything. I installed Kubuntu 17.10 recently from scratch | 23:15 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ as i am using a command line interface mostly and want to continue to use it, how do i backup my commands in text file automatically so when i need lock for command i used in a past i can just opena text file and find it. | 23:16 |
| IntelCore | Hello, might I ask if the next is 18.04LTS | 23:16 |
| IntelCore | release date for 18.04 ? | 23:17 |
| pragmaticenigma | IntelCore, please /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion on 18.04 | 23:17 |
| pragmaticenigma | IntelCore, also, all that information is on the ubuntu website | 23:17 |
| bugzbunny | IntelCore: yes | 23:17 |
| CarlFK | Kashi2018: ~/.bash_history | 23:17 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: if i interpret lines 45-53 correctly (and i may very well not) then this input file is improperly formatted / broken | 23:17 |
| bugzbunny | IntelCore: 26th April | 23:17 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: ... or that's what VLC thinks it is | 23:18 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: there's a history automatically held, about 1,000 (or is it 10,000) commands long. Use "history" to dump it all, or to search backwards and reuse a command do Ctrl+R (which is a reverse-search) then type some fragment of the command you want to recall. If at first the command line you want doesn't show, press Ctrl+R more times until you find the one you want | 23:18 |
| nacc | Kashi2018: and you don't need to look in the file, you can just use the `history` command (with grep, if you want) | 23:18 |
| bugzbunny | IntelCore: As pragmaticenigma Said, questions for 18.04, discuss it in #ubuntu+1 | 23:18 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: yeah, seems like. But the problem here is vlc not the file. It's happening regularly with this specific version of VLC | 23:19 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: if you like the command-line, read the shell manual (a bit at a time!) with "man bash" | 23:19 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: did you experience playback errors / glitches when this output was produced? | 23:19 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: not with mplayer for example | 23:19 |
| Kashi2018 | @CarlFK and @TJ and @Nacc Thank you | 23:19 |
| IntelCore | TY ubuntu | 23:19 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: you may find this helpful https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 23:19 |
| bugzbunny | IntelCore: np | 23:19 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: exactly - there is no sound mostly, but when it prints those messages it comes back for some milliseconds | 23:20 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: I get this message on stdout, when I run firefox from the shell: ###!!! [Parent][MessageChannel] Error: (msgtype=0x150080,name=PBrowser::Msg_Destroy) Closed channel: cannot send/recv | 23:20 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: try a PPA, try the upstream release, talk to developers. | 23:20 |
| OnkelTem | well, sure. But it's just a standard Kubuntu if you know what I mean :) | 23:21 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, does "firejail ping 127.0.0.1" result in the same message? | 23:21 |
| Kashi2018 | I can not imagine this incredible support on any OS platform. I am speechless. Thank you all. I will be asking you guys more question as i am in the process of customizing ubntu and apps. | 23:21 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: just watching this chat can often be very educational, learning from other user's issues and how support engineers diagnose them | 23:22 |
| bugzbunny | right | 23:22 |
| bugzbunny | It's just as helpful me as well | 23:22 |
| bugzbunny | s/me/for me/ | 23:22 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: I get this message now: ping: socket: Operation not permitted | 23:23 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ yes, this IRC will be always running in a browser tab but would be better to have this running in a independent IRC application. | 23:23 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, are there any config files in ~/.config/firejail ?? | 23:23 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: no... afaik, they are mostly in /etc/firejail | 23:24 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: https://vlc-bluray.whoknowsmy.name/ | 23:24 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: do you recall the apt command for seeing which files a package owns? | 23:24 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, I do not | 23:25 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: not sure whether this helps with v2 | 23:25 |
| TJ- | Kashi2018: there are many IRC clients, many of which will log the channels for you. We also have the logs on https://irclogs.ubuntu.com | 23:26 |
| IntelCore | 3 weeks, oh boi ! | 23:26 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, try this "firejail --net=eth0 firefox" you might need to replace eth0 with your actual ethernet interface | 23:26 |

| TJ- | notadrop: "dpkg -L <package>" for installed packages, "apt file list -F <package>" for no-installed | 23:27 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: the biggest difference between Ubuntu, and other distros I've used, is AppArmour | 23:27 |
| notadrop | I don't know how this didn't hit me before | 23:27 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: also you should have libdvd-pkg installed | 23:27 |
| Guest22387 | what is the best os on Raspberry pi 3 b+ | 23:28 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: then I think it should not have worked at all (I mean if I miss some package) eh? | 23:28 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, one thought is whether or not your system has been rebooted since installing firejail. If firejail installed a config change, it's possible AppAmor wasn't cycled after install | 23:29 |
| tomreyn | OnkelTem: eithe rthat, or fallen back to the non-proprietary code. | 23:29 |
| notadrop | pragmaticenigma: it definitely has | 23:29 |
| notadrop | TJ-, pragmaticenigma: https://ptpb.pw/W-9Z | 23:29 |
| pragmaticenigma | notadrop, otherwise, AppAmor is by default, fairly permissive | 23:29 |
| Kashi2018 | @TJ Thank you | 23:30 |
| OnkelTem | tomreyn: just installed from snap - it cannot even open a file :) | 23:30 |

| michi31426 | hi @all | 23:44 |
| michi31426 | someone got a minute for a question? | 23:44 |
| guiverc | !ask | michi31426 | 23:45 |
| ubottu | michi31426: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 23:45 |
| antarus | I recently upgraded from Xenial to Artful, and now gpg can't seem to read my secrey keys (or some keys are missing) | 23:46 |
| antarus | has anyone else hit this problem? | 23:46 |
| michi31426 | Okay, this makes sense ^^ I just accidently "rm -R ~/" . Looks bad, so maybe it's the perfect time for a fresh install. I made an efi stub a while ago (followed a guide, not really understanding :/ ). Do I need to revert or delete the efi stub before installing a new system? | 23:49 |
| BillD73 | antarus: I'd check in the #ubuntu+1 channel | 23:50 |
| pragmaticenigma | BillD73, #ubuntu+1 is for Bionic... not Artful | 23:50 |
| BillD73 | oops | 23:50 |
| adrian_1908 | habit? :D | 23:51 |
| BillD73 | always forget about artful lol | 23:51 |
| pragmaticenigma | antarus, I'd make sure that your user is still the owner of the files, and that the are readable | 23:52 |
| adrian_1908 | I feel the same about artful, it felt uneventful. In fact, I just checked and I'm running it. Xenial left a much bigger impression. | 23:52 |
| antarus | pragmaticenigma: I think its simply some kind of format change in gpg keys; my current plan is to copy files to other box, gpg --export the keys there, copy the export to Artful box, gpg --import | 23:53 |
| antarus | and if that works, I'll be on my way | 23:53 |
| pragmaticenigma | antarus, I would be surprised if the key format changed. but anything is possible I suppose | 23:54 |
| antarus | pragmaticenigma: I would too; I only thought of this procedure because a co-worker hit it recently | 23:55 |
| antarus | (where they had a Trusty / Newer-Distro mismatch and needed to resolve it and did a similar procedure) | 23:55 |
| antarus | I dislike gpg; so stuff works now and i'll just consider it a lost hour of debugging ;p | 23:56 |
| antarus | (luckily i don't have to do this more than once right now) | 23:56 |
