| oerheks | i think so, maybe someone from the #ubuntu-kernel team could better answer that | 00:00 |
| oerheks | oh, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/FAQ#Kernel.2FFAQ.2FGeneralFindingDocumentation.Where_do_I_find_the_Kernel_Team.27s_documentation.3F | 00:01 |
| hxmuller | oerheks: I think I've discovered my answer. Apparently if you enable CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC when compiling the kernel, it stores the config in /proc/config.gz, which when read, gives the same comment about "Automatically generated file" | 00:06 |
| bluegrass900 | Hi. I'm using Ubuntu MATE. In the top right corner at the left of my left-most icon on the panel I have a little green | just like that | 00:07 |
| bluegrass900 | just a line like that that is green that doesn't seem to be for anything. | 00:07 |
| bluegrass900 | It's there sometimes, not always. | 00:07 |
| bluegrass900 | Is this some kind of spyware? | 00:08 |
| bluegrass900 | Doesn't seem legitimate to me. All my other icons are white. | 00:08 |
| bluegrass900 | This vertical line is green. | 00:08 |
| hxmuller | oerheks: scratch that, the kbuild system adds that comment. i just never noticed it before | 00:12 |

| temno | I really followed all the instructions on the official website | 00:34 |

| ubottu | temno: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 00:35 |
| temno | Ok...but I used even the USB | 00:35 |
| temno | When I tried to do a CHECKSUM ....computer say... NO! :-) | 00:36 |
| temno | I tried 6 times | 00:36 |
| temno | That's the reason why I'm explaining which machines I'm using | 00:37 |
| tomreyn | Guest10016: i think this is only supported with a mainline kernel (if at all). | 00:38 |
| tomreyn | !mainline | Guest10016 | 00:38 |

| tomreyn | temno: so when you created the bootable USB stick, how did you do it exactly, and were any errors reported during the process? | 00:39 |
| temno | I feel like in 1997 in this chat !!!! Uffffff | 00:39 |
| andy10134 | hi)? | 00:39 |

| andy10134 | How are you? n.n | 00:40 |
| tomreyn | andy10134: fine, thanks. do you have an ubuntu support question? | 00:40 |
| temno | Dear Tomreyn, I followed the instructions...It means that I've tried with TERMINAL.....I downloaded RosaImageWriter and other 3 software to move the ISO immage to USB device | 00:41 |
| tomreyn | temno: which instructions did you follow there? | 00:41 |
| * tomreyn never heard of "RosaImageWriter" | 00:42 | |
| temno | and finally I burned a DVD that I could not think I had in my home after 12 yeras! | 00:42 |
| temno | :-) | 00:42 |
| temno | In the italian version of the official website for UBUNTU | 00:43 |
| temno | there are suggestion about using specific softwares to create an USB stick with the file ISO I already downloaded | 00:43 |
| temno | If you have suggestion please....tell me...I'll follow It | 00:44 |
| swift110_ | hey all | 00:46 |
| tomreyn | temno: is thgis the tutorial you followed? https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-macos#0 | 00:47 |
| temno | Yes....I tried even with this tutorial | 00:48 |
| temno | for Eatcher | 00:48 |
| temno | YES YES YES.......I'm going crazy | 00:49 |
| temno | I changed 3 USB devices | 00:49 |
| temno | I feel stupid! | 00:49 |
| tomreyn | temno: so when you tried with etcher, did etcher report that writing it succeeded? | 00:49 |
| temno | Yes | 00:49 |
| temno | I put the USB stick in the old PC and WINDOWS XP starts again | 00:50 |
| temno | That's the reason why I can't find any explanation | 00:51 |
| tomreyn | temno: once you had the stick created on the mac, did you follow this tutorial to install on the acer? https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-install-ubuntu-desktop#0 | 00:51 |
| tomreyn | temno: acer computers can have bios / uefi restrictions to only allow booting windows systems. also, there a generally bios / uefi settings which can prevent booting from usb, or from anything other than the primary storage (HDD). did you check your BIOS / UEFI thoroughly to make sure no such issues are getting in the way? | 00:53 |
| temno | Dear Tomreyn....I appreciate your efforts but this tutorial seems to be useful if the file ISO already starts...... | 00:54 |
| tomreyn | temno: also, can you tell the exact model of the acer computer? | 00:54 |
| tomreyn | temno: not only, it also discusses system requirements. | 00:55 |
| temno | ASPIRE 57352 | 00:55 |
| temno | Old...but not so bad! :-) | 00:55 |
| tomreyn | also step #4 of the tutorial discusses how to boot off usb | 00:55 |
| temno | ok..... I will try again.....Thank you very much for your time | 00:56 |
| temno | Thanks Tomreyn! | 00:57 |
| tomreyn | temno: i'm currently searching the web to see whether there are specific hints on how to install linux on this system. | 00:57 |
| temno | ok | 00:57 |
| tomreyn | feel free to wait another 5 minutes or just try it again. | 00:57 |
| stubuntu | hello | 00:58 |
| tomreyn | temno: are you sure the model number is exactly "57352", since i can't find much with exactly this | 00:58 |
| tomreyn | there are some variants which start with "5735", though | 00:59 |
| Bashing-om | temno: maybe Vendor lockin ?? See: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2390593 for some aids. | 00:59 |

| stubuntu | ok thanx, is there a website where I can go to learn about online chatting and the lingo ? | 01:03 |

| tomreyn | temno: latest bios is available at ftp://ftp.support.acer-euro.com/Archiv/notebook/aspire_5735/vista/Bios/v1.10.zip | 01:08 |
| temno | I should install the new BIOS on the old machine? | 01:09 |
| oerheks | an some bios versions, usb boot needs to set in 2 places, boot priority and hdd priority | 01:09 |
| tomreyn | temno: if this old system currently uses an older bios, it may be a good idea to install the latest bios version available to ensure compatibility. | 01:10 |
| tomreyn | bios updates dont always make things better, but most of the time they do | 01:11 |
| temno | Ok....thank you very much...I really appreciate...I love you Tomreyn......! :-) | 01:11 |

| n35xdxb0 | would be nice if laptop automatically muted after it enters suspend | 04:01 |

| n35xdxb0 | lotuspsychje: hmm, interesting | 04:05 |
| n35xdxb0 | for me it's the other way round. i close laptop. it suspends | 04:05 |

| rangemonger | is there a package that can test playback out of various audio devices? "front left" "front right" etc? | 05:52 |
| === marve is now known as Guest25224 | ||
| === shawn is now known as Guest341 | ||
| guiverc_t | rangemonger, you can test your main set of speakers I thought with gnome/unity using default tools (I'm not using either, so can't look currently) | 06:03 |
| rangemonger | guiverc_t: do you know what package that is a part of? i built my ubuntu from a netinstall | 06:05 |
| rangemonger | also lxinput doesnt seem to have any effect on the mouse settings at all | 06:07 |
| guiverc_t | sorry no, I don't use unity or gnome, and don't know how to pull up gnome-settings (when not using gnome) to work out.. | 06:08 |
| rangemonger | its cool, thanks anyway | 06:08 |
| guiverc_t | found what i was looking for; `gnome-control-center` and selecting 'test speakers' - but no idea as to package sorry | 06:09 |

| ducasse | mojtaba: what do you mean, exactly? | 06:36 |
| mojtaba | ducasse: I am backing up a disk and there are some shortcuts pointing to themselves. | 06:38 |
| mojtaba | when you click on it, it infinitely goes back to the same place. | 06:38 |
| mojtaba | It gives errors when I try to zip the whole directory. | 06:38 |
| ducasse | symlinks, you mean? pointing to the current directory? | 06:41 |
| mojtaba | ducasse: yes. pointing to its path. | 06:41 |
| mojtaba | any idea? | 06:47 |
| mojtaba | Hello, Do you know how can I remove all the self pointing shortcuts in a directory? | 06:47 |
| eraserpencil | If during install, I did not seperate out my partitions. Am I still able to find out how much space my /boot WOULD have been? | 06:50 |
| ducasse | eraserpencil: you can see how much space it uses with 'du -sh /boot' | 06:52 |
| eraserpencil | thanks! if I dont have LVM, can I increase /boot ? | 06:53 |
| EriC^^ | eraserpencil: sure it's just more involved | 06:55 |
| ducasse | you can expand a partition if there is space, but it can be a little messy. i'm not sure /boot can be a logical volume either. | 06:55 |
| lotuspsychje | hey EriC^^ | 06:55 |
| EriC^^ | ideally you'd make it large enough to not have to grow it in size later | 06:55 |
| EriC^^ | hey lotuspsychje | 06:55 |
| eraserpencil | would you recommend that? or should I manually delete the files in /boot. As in delete vmlinux-xxx, initrd-xxx etc etc, starting with deleting the ones with the smallest number | 06:56 |
| EriC^^ | eraserpencil: use the package manager to delete them | 06:56 |
| lotuspsychje | eraserpencil: anu specific reason you wanna enlargen /boot? | 06:57 |
| EriC^^ | sudo apt-get purge linux-image-........-generic and headers packages | 06:57 |
| eraserpencil | im in a loop where I cant purge because I dont have the linux-headers-generic, cant apt-get -f install because my boot is full | 06:57 |
| EriC^^ | eraserpencil: erase the initrd to free some space then purge | 06:58 |
| eraserpencil | so i start with deleting the smallest numbers yea? | 06:58 |
| EriC^^ | yeah, run "uname -r" and delete what you're not running | 06:59 |
| nightw0lf | eraserpencil, yea I had the same thing, I deleted manually older kernels | 06:59 |
| EriC^^ | smallest first | 06:59 |
| eraserpencil | thanks! | 06:59 |
| EriC^^ | np | 06:59 |
| lotuspsychje | !kernelcleanup | eraserpencil as suggested | 06:59 |
| ubottu | eraserpencil as suggested: For information about removing old kernels to free up space on /boot, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RemoveOldKernels | 06:59 |
| nightw0lf | after I deleted one or two, I had enough space to purge using apt | 06:59 |
| nightw0lf | EriC^^, sorry for hijacking :D | 07:00 |
| EriC^^ | np, yw :D | 07:00 |
| ducasse | you don't need to delete manually, you can use dpkg -P to purge the package | 07:02 |
| eraserpencil | thanks guys! all works now. | 07:02 |
| eraserpencil | Wasnt sure if I should keep or to expand | 07:03 |
| eraserpencil | i mean delete or expand | 07:03 |
| lotuspsychje | eraserpencil: to keep your system healthy, cleanup is needed time to time | 07:03 |
| EriC^^ | you can run "sudo apt-get autoremove --purge" every now and then to keep space there good | 07:04 |
| mojtaba | Hello, Do you know how can I remove all the self pointing shortcuts in a directory? | 07:05 |
| EriC^^ | mojtaba: self pointing like what? | 07:05 |
| nightw0lf | eraserpencil, great! | 07:06 |
| eraserpencil | yea, unintentionally nuke my system and do fresh installs everytime. Either by careless dd or careless gdisk writing or careless rm | 07:07 |
| mojtaba | EriC^^: self pointing symlinks. | 07:08 |
| EriC^^ | mojtaba: you mean there's a bunch of softlinks in the dir pointing to it? | 07:08 |
| EriC^^ | mojtaba: you mean they are softlinks? | 07:09 |
| mojtaba | EriC^^: I mean there are lots of softlinks pointing to themselves, and when I try to backup the directory. It just hangs. | 07:10 |
| EriC^^ | mojtaba: can you give an example of one of their "ls -l" output? | 07:11 |
| mojtaba | path/users --> patth/users | 07:12 |
| lotuspsychje | mojtaba: screenshot or hastebin, to make it clear please | 07:12 |
| EriC^^ | mojtaba: what happens if you do "readlink -f /path/to/softlink" ? | 07:14 |
| === robot_ is now known as Guest39414 | ||

| mojtaba | EriC^^: In nautilus, when I click on it, it just adds the name to the path and shows the directory I was in it. It continues infinitely. | 07:15 |
| EriC^^ | test it a little then run it without the echo before rm | 07:16 |
| Viking667 | I've got a weird problem... /bin seems to have gone missing from .profile or .bashrc. Where's that made part of the $PATH? | 07:19 |

| EriC^^ | Viking667: what does "echo $PATH" give? | 07:20 |
| Viking667 | lots of bits, but /bin seems to be strangely missing. | 07:20 |
| Viking667 | I've got /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin (archaic, I know) and several other paths too... | 07:21 |
| EriC^^ | Viking667: what's in /etc/environment? | 07:21 |

| quxgyver | Hi. I'm getting "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgoocanvas3 (>= 0.15)" in Lubuntu 18.04 (LTS) when trying to install a package. I've tried following every instruction that I've found on Google - including installing a bunch of software and packages - to no avail. I've checked apt update and apt upgrade, and the only issue there is with Sublime Text 3. Everything else checks out. | 07:33 |
| quxgyver | Any help? | 07:33 |
| ducasse | quxgyver: which package are you trying to install? | 07:34 |
| assiduus | (was gonna ask the same question) | 07:35 |
| quxgyver | Inform7 | 07:35 |
| quxgyver | http://inform7.com/download/ | 07:35 |
| quxgyver | Both .debs have the same problem. | 07:35 |
| ducasse | ok, then try asking where you got that package | 07:35 |
| assiduus | Wow, it's an oldie. | 07:36 |
| quxgyver | ducasse: What do you mean? | 07:36 |
| assiduus | quxgyver: this software seems to be abandoned since 2015. | 07:37 |
| assiduus | Maybe you can find something else that does the same thing. | 07:37 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: we dont support external software/ppa's officially, we reccomend using packages from the ubuntu repos | 07:38 |
| quxgyver | assiduus: I don't think there are any other builds. :/ | 07:38 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: meaning, installing external software often result in scrambled system hence why we cant support | 07:38 |
| ducasse | quxgyver: if you want to use that, you need to ask for an updated version that works on modern ubuntu | 07:38 |
| quxgyver | lotuspsychje: I'm more interested in what the message means, in plain english. | 07:39 |
| quxgyver | That way I can maybe troubleshoot it myself. | 07:39 |
| quxgyver | ducasse: I don't think there is any, unfortunately. | 07:39 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: in plain english, your software is trying to install packages that doesnt match current ubuntu | 07:40 |
| assiduus | You could try to look for libgoocanvas in the version apt-get wants. | 07:40 |
| guiverc_t | quxgyver, it says you need libgoocanvas3 - a search for it reveals (https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libgoocanvas3) ver =0.15 is available for trusty, =1.0 for xenial & artful but none yet for bionic (18.04) | 07:40 |
| quxgyver | lotuspsychje: In what way? Is it asking for an older version of an existing package, or for a nonexistent package to be installed? | 07:40 |
| guiverc_t | quxgyver, the link I provided also tells you it's in 'universe' ; or community supported; meaning no-one from the community has packaged/tested the lib for bionic(18.04) | 07:41 |
| assiduus | You could virtualize Trusty and use the package that's avaiable in Ubuntu packages. | 07:42 |
| guiverc_t | quxgyver, note: i'm talking about your posted error (not sublime text 3 the others looked at... to aid your troubleshooting in future request) | 07:42 |
| lotuspsychje | !rootirc | sdfgsd | 07:43 |
| ubottu | sdfgsd: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. | 07:43 |
| assiduus | Maybe he's on Windows using root as his username. :P | 07:43 |
| quxgyver | guiverc_t: Even if the package hasn't been tested, is there any harm in installing it? I mean, applications wouldn't use it anyway, right? | 07:44 |
| assiduus | Yeah, yeah. I know it's a bot. ;) | 07:44 |
| quxgyver | Aside from Inform7 | 07:44 |
| assiduus | You could also build libgoocanvas3 from source. | 07:45 |
| assiduus | Instead of waiting for someone else to do it for bionic. :) | 07:45 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: i would reccomend looking for a package that does the same as inform7, in the official repos | 07:45 |
| quxgyver | lotuspsychje: I don't think there is any. | 07:46 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: how are you so sure? what does it do exactly? | 07:46 |
| guiverc_t | quxgyver, that's I think off-topic here, but you've have to meet its requirements which are viewed by looking at (https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/libgoocanvas3 for the 17.10 version) and then check they don't compete/clash with other packages etc... ie. homework to ensure you don't end up in dependency-hell.. if you do your homework you're okay; but it's not for newbies & could make your system unstable!) | 07:46 |
| quxgyver | lotuspsychje: It's an IDE for writing interactive fiction games. | 07:47 |
| Viking667 | okay, I'm back. | 07:47 |
| quxgyver | lotuspsychje: I've already tried searching for Inform-related packages, but they seem to only fulfill certain aspects of what the IDE does | 07:48 |
| quxgyver | guiverc_t: So you're saying that if you install a package that is incompatible with your system, it actually can be dangerous? | 07:48 |
| quxgyver | Cus I thought that installing an unneeded package was fine | 07:49 |
| quxgyver | as long as it's not used by any critical software | 07:49 |
| quxgyver | in this case it's just a game development IDE that'd be using it, so I assumed that it wouldn't be an issue | 07:49 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: yes, we dont reccomend mixing package version across different ubuntu versions | 07:49 |
| Viking667 | So. /bin doesn't appear to be part of my $PATH, even though it's present in /etc/environment. what should I prod to get it to work right? | 07:50 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: you could consider build an ubuntu version, where its still supported? | 07:50 |
| quxgyver | lotuspsychje: That's way beyond my skill level. | 07:51 |
| quxgyver | I guess this is a lost cause. | 07:51 |
| guiverc_t | quxgyver, i'd not call it dangerous - it's can be fun to fix messes :) but its not really for newbies.. it may require a re-install because of instability... thus not recommended and the ~off-topic nature of it... if you do your homework (2nd page took you to 9 packages to check...) you're fine... apt will do this check, but you need to know the consequences .... be prepared for need to re-install if you make mistakes (don't do enough | 07:51 |
| guiverc_t | homework or make mistake etc) | 07:51 |
| quxgyver | But, thanks for taking the time to help. I appreciate it. | 07:51 |
| assiduus | quxgyver: as I already said. Use virtualbox to install Trusty and use the official package. | 07:52 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: yeah or physical install ^ | 07:52 |
| quxgyver | I can't. Partly because this is a very low spec PC, and partly because I had such an issue getting *buntu installed due to various unintelligible errors that I don't really want to mess with the system again. | 07:53 |
| quxgyver | But it's fine. I'll live. | 07:54 |
| lotuspsychje | quxgyver: see also tads3 as inform7 alternate | 07:54 |
| assiduus | Viking667: add /bin to your PATH environment variable (export PATH=$PATH:/bin). | 07:54 |
| quxgyver | lotuspsychje: Appreciate the suggestion/effort, but I already have an ongoing IF7 project. | 07:55 |
| quxgyver | I just wanted to be able to work on it on my Linux PC. :-) | 07:55 |
| Viking667 | assiduus: while that might work, I'm puzzled why it's not there to begin with. | 07:55 |
| quxgyver | But it's fine! Appreciate the help. | 07:55 |
| assiduus | Yeah. It is weird. | 07:55 |
| assiduus | Add it (export) to your .bash_profile and that's it. ;) | 07:56 |
| assiduus | Although it should have been in your PATH already. | 07:56 |
| Viking667 | you beat me to it. | 07:56 |
| assiduus | :) | 07:56 |
| Viking667 | So. Where do I put it so it's in every user's PATH? | 07:57 |
| Viking667 | actually, I should ask why it's not in THIS user's path specifically. | 07:57 |
| assiduus | /etc/profile if I'm not mistaken. | 07:57 |
| Viking667 | I'll check that again. | 07:57 |
| assiduus | He or she must have messed with the PATH variable directly on indirectly (that software they used did it). | 07:58 |
| assiduus | *the | 07:58 |
| Viking667 | hm. /bin isn't mentioned in /etc/profile, or /etc/bash.bashrc for that matter. I'm checking through /etc/profile.d/* at the moment | 07:59 |
| Viking667 | now that IS weird. It's not there either. | 07:59 |
| assiduus | PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin" | 07:59 |
| assiduus | this is default PATH on bionic. | 08:00 |

| TvL2386_ | hey guys, I'm having an ubuntu-18.04 desktop with VirtualBox installed. I have a 18.04 VM installed using `vagrant init ubuntu/bionic64 && vagrant up` and it boots soooooooo sloooooow.... I think it's the tty console lag or something | 08:03 |
| TvL2386_ | an ubuntu 16.04 vm starts in about 8 seconds | 08:03 |
| TvL2386_ | 18.04 takes 50 seconds | 08:03 |
| Viking667 | TvL2386_: so what services are starting in each VM then? | 08:04 |
| TvL2386_ | Viking667: well, the first 23 seconds of booting the 18.04 VM is kernel output, so I concluded it must be console slowness | 08:05 |
| TvL2386_ | hmmm... my old 16.04 vms boot fast, a newly created 16.04 vm has the same lag... I think virtualbox or vagrant has changed some defaults, I'll compare settings | 08:09 |
| guiverc_t | quxgyver, just had a thought - did you look for a snap packaged version of whatever you were looking for (snaps don't have the 'dep-hell' issues i was talking about) | 08:14 |
| Triffid_Hunter | TvL2386_: could be presence/absence of suitable fbconsole driver? the fallback vesa one is terribly slow.. does it still boot slow after you install virtualbox guest drivers? | 08:20 |
| lotuspsychje | TvL2386_: 18.04 is slow booting systemd, several bugs on it | 08:24 |

| noob1ieLin | Hello everyone! | 08:53 |
| noob1ieLin | can someone assist as i am a bit new in linux :) |(but not completely) | 09:01 |
| noob1ieLin | i installed freeradius, and I am wondering how to uninstall it | 09:02 |
| noob1ieLin | i did the dpkg -l | grep -i radius to see the pkgs and then dpkg -P to purge them | 09:03 |
| noob1ieLin | but when i try locate freeradius i get allot of feedback from files and folders | 09:03 |
| blackflow | noob1ieLin: you can use apt for that, it's the proper package manager anyway (dpkg is low level .deb file manager) | 09:03 |
| noob1ieLin | usr/local/share | 09:03 |
| noob1ieLin | yeap did that also | 09:05 |
| noob1ieLin | apt-get remove freeradius | 09:05 |
| noob1ieLin | Reading package lists... Done | 09:05 |
| noob1ieLin | Building dependency tree | 09:05 |
| noob1ieLin | Reading state information... Done | 09:05 |
| noob1ieLin | Package 'freeradius' is not installed, so not removed | 09:05 |
| blackflow | noob1ieLin: if dpkg -l showed it installed then apt must be able to uninstall it | 09:06 |
| quxgyver | guiverc_t: What's a snap package? | 09:07 |
| noob1ieLin | @blackflow I am just wondering why the files are still in the system is all | 09:12 |
| noob1ieLin | and should just i delete them | 09:12 |
| guiverc_t | quxgyver, this may provide some info: https://blog.ubuntu.com/2016/06/14/universal-snap-packages-launch-on-multiple-linux-distros ; "Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.." (you use `snap install` instead of `apt install`) - but the editor you want may not be packaged in it anyway... | 09:14 |
| quxgyver | guiverc_t: Ah I see! That's cool | 09:39 |
| guiverc_t | :) | 09:40 |
| quxgyver | It doesn't look like it's available as a snap package, but thanks for explaining. | 09:40 |
| quxgyver | At least I learned some things today. :-) | 09:40 |

| Haris | how to get php 5.6 on 16.x ? | 09:57 |
| Haris | ppa ? | 09:57 |
| chigong | hello all-im new to ubuntu/linux and learning the ropes as i go-want to make a basic quick login script to connect to my vpn service-security not paramount concern hence making a script with login details-how do i incorporate into my script a username and password (what is the syntax for password and username | 09:59 |
| simosx | chigong, Ubuntu uses NetworkManager and you can automate it very easily. Click on [network icon]→VPN Connections→Add a VPN Connection... | 10:00 |
| jrabe | chigong: I believe there's currently a bug in NetworkManager that prevents automatic connections from working. If you're affected by it, a script like https://janikrabe.com/vpn.sh.txt should do the trick (place it in '/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d' and make it executable (+x)). | 10:09 |
| jrabe | Be sure to change the UUID on the first line, save your password through the GUI (for all users, not just your user) and note that this script doesn't prevent traffic from going out while the connection is being established or when you have conectivity issues. | 10:09 |

| omarek | I use Vim for programming in fullscreen, and whenever notifications slide in they obscure my vim command line. | 11:07 |
| omarek | I can't afford not to use slack for inter-company communications because that's what most of them uses. | 11:07 |

| leftyfb | skinux: vi is installed by default on ubuntu. vim is an apt command away | 14:20 |
| deww | pagios: i'm far from knowledgeable on this, but it appears you are referring to dns round robin | 14:21 |
| leftyfb | deww: that's not real load balancing | 14:21 |
| deww | nope | 14:22 |

| coconut | ow, *that* easy? Shame on me.... | 14:36 |
| eyeoh | tee might be another command that does a similar but different thing you might be interested in. | 14:36 |
| eyeoh | oh nah so many times I've never been sure cause it's not always documented since it's /assumed/ knowledge. | 14:37 |
| eyeoh | heh check out man tac too | 14:37 |
| eyeoh | unix is whacky | 14:37 |
| eyeoh | the details is probably somewhere inside 'info coreutils' but I admittedly haven't read it | 14:39 |
| eyeoh | (also try info info to learn to read info...) | 14:39 |
| eyeoh | I definitely need to read all of info coreutils; as well as how to compile rather than stumbling around (although, stumbling around teaches a lot too) | 14:41 |
| eyeoh | I think setting the terminal font to something nice and not too big/small helps | 14:42 |

| Pete234 | Yeah | 14:54 |
| oerheks | install some software, read about it | 14:54 |
| eyeoh | (cause there will be an 18.10 soon enough; and then you'll be deciding which to keep) | 14:54 |
| Pete234 | Like what | 14:54 |
| oerheks | not really an ubuntu technical issue, is it? | 14:54 |
| eyeoh | head to the command line as early as you can | 14:54 |
| eyeoh | you'll learn lots | 14:54 |
| Pete234 | How long do you anticipate the next release? | 14:54 |

| eyeoh | they're twice a year Pete234, and once every two years for LTS releases. | 14:55 |
| danili_ | Hey people :) I have this wierd problem with my package manager, I tried to install tftpd-hpa so I could connect to my cisco switch.

I've collected the thinks I've tried and the outputs I got in this pastebin :) https://pastebin.com/FiTge91C | 14:55 |

| Zuhaitz | Hi, I forgot my password for USB HD (LUKS), because I changed it last week, I remember the old one, for an unknown reason gnome shell forgot it when I unpluged the usb and pluged again, and I have important stuff there. Can someone tell me if there is a way? Gnome SHELL Ubuntu GNU Linux 16.04 LUKS. Please. | 14:58 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: there is no way | 14:59 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: that would defeat the purpose behind encryption | 14:59 |
| oerheks | Zuhaitz, you changed *and* forgot the luks password, then you have a big problem | 14:59 |
| oerheks | so, your data is safe, no-one can read it | 14:59 |
| danili_ | leftyfb, it gave me this https://pastebin.com/sFXrgeMz | 14:59 |
| eyeoh | coconut: I finally figured out where >> is originally "documented", in case you ever want to read up on that - type info bash, and then press s and search for >> | 14:59 |
| blackflow | call NSA for a backup copy? | 14:59 |
| blackflow | also... important without backup == not important. | 15:00 |
| eyeoh | coconut: there are a couple of other tricks described there too | 15:00 |
| Zuhaitz | leftyfb, but maybe, If I am the owner... the user ... | 15:00 |
| Zuhaitz | what about this https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1543373 ? | 15:00 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: there is no way. You either remember the password or you consider the data gone | 15:01 |
| Zuhaitz | leftyfb, and WHY Gnome SHELL forgot it? | 15:01 |
| Pete234 | How many users are in the system...I am assuming that you could probably boot with a USB boot repair and try to recover from there assuming that the such user has admin rights | 15:01 |
| eyeoh | Zuhaitz: Assuming it's a strong password, you're in a tough spot. In future the only possible option you have is to use a password manager. | 15:01 |
| Zuhaitz | I clicked "remember password" and it was working for weeks | 15:02 |
| eyeoh | oh no | 15:02 |
| oerheks | Zuhaitz, why did *you* forgot it?? did you seriously want gnome to remember the pass ?? | 15:02 |
| eyeoh | that's not what it's meant to do | 15:02 |
| Zuhaitz | and just 2 days ago, Gnome forgot it | 15:02 |
| oerheks | .. and you changed it | 15:02 |
| eyeoh | that's not how the keyring works | 15:02 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: this has nothing to do with gnome shell. You can use cryptsetup to try to unlock the volume. It'll ask for your password. If you forgot it, then there is no getting in | 15:02 |
| Zuhaitz | oerheks, I changed it and clicked remember | 15:02 |
| Zuhaitz | and it was working | 15:02 |
| Pete234 | and also you might be able to find some linux hacking tools which could help you take care of the issue | 15:02 |
| Zuhaitz | for 2 days | 15:02 |
| Zuhaitz | Gnome SHell forgot it | 15:03 |
| leftyfb | Pete234: there is currently no "hacking" around LUKS | 15:03 |
| eyeoh | Okay, so assume gnome shell did forget it | 15:03 |
| Zuhaitz | belive or not | 15:03 |
| blackflow | unless you call NSA for a backup copy. c'mon 'tis funny. | 15:03 |
| eyeoh | we still can't help sorry | 15:03 |
| Zuhaitz | eyeoh, but why? is not that a bug? | 15:03 |
| eyeoh | it's technically not possible with current knowledge | 15:03 |
| yogg | hi | 15:03 |
| eyeoh | no Zuhaitz, it's security | 15:03 |
| Zuhaitz | at least I could mount it, copy to another | 15:03 |
| === czesmir_ is now known as czesmir | ||
| Zuhaitz | and then format | 15:03 |
| Zuhaitz | no, is not security | 15:03 |
| Zuhaitz | gnome FORGOT it | 15:03 |
| eyeoh | but why encrypt if it's not meant to? | 15:04 |
| eyeoh | okay | 15:04 |
| Zuhaitz | I clicked remember, and it was working | 15:04 |
| Zuhaitz | plug --> mounted | 15:04 |
| Zuhaitz | it was working for a long time | 15:04 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/<your drive> backup | 15:04 |
| Zuhaitz | what is that | 15:04 |
| yogg | I try to use "ps -o comm:50,pid" but I only get the first 15 chars of the process. Is there a special option to get the full string? | 15:04 |
| Pete234 | just like windows, I am sure there are some linux tools aimed for such purpose | 15:05 |
| leftyfb | it'll ask you for the password to manually unlock it | 15:05 |
| Zuhaitz | Nautilus is asking me every time I click... | 15:05 |
| Zuhaitz | the drive | 15:05 |
| Zuhaitz | xD | 15:05 |
| luxio | What's the package for IntelliJ IDEA? | 15:05 |
| yogg | the full command that I use: "ps axf -o comm:50,pid" | 15:06 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: if you forgot the password, that is a bug with your brain, nothing else. Sorry, nobody can help you. | 15:06 |
| Zuhaitz | I know that is my problem, but If I forgot and gnome dont, then I could mount, and copy to the laptop hd, then format usb hd again | 15:06 |
| Zuhaitz | leftyfb, no, gnome shell forgot the password | 15:06 |
| blackflow | luxio: search the snaps, I don't think there's a regular package of it | 15:06 |
| Zuhaitz | is a gnome bug | 15:06 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: do you know he password? | 15:06 |
| yogg | with "ps auxf " I get much more | 15:06 |
| Zuhaitz | leftyfb, I clicked REMEMBER PASSWORD | 15:06 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: do you know he password? | 15:07 |
| Zuhaitz | it was working, and gnome forgot it | 15:07 |
| leftyfb | the* | 15:07 |
| Zuhaitz | is or not a bug in nautilus gnome or what ever? | 15:07 |
| leftyfb | Zuhaitz: do you know the password? | 15:07 |
| blackflow | it's not a bug, it's PEBKAC | 15:07 |

| Zuhaitz | hggdh, i didnt insult, he does "you have a bug in your brain" | 15:10 |
| Zuhaitz | is that "official support" of canonical? | 15:10 |
| Zuhaitz | if it is, tell me, Ill write something to canonical | 15:11 |
| Zuhaitz | about the "support" | 15:11 |
| Zuhaitz | and insults | 15:11 |
| Zuhaitz | ;) | 15:11 |
| eyeoh | ok I'll follow the other advice of /ignore so that I don't flood the channel with replies | 15:11 |
| hggdh | Zuhaitz: this is community support | 15:11 |
| Zuhaitz | hggdh, Im community too | 15:11 |
| Zuhaitz | And I'll dont insult you | 15:11 |
| hggdh | Zuhaitz: if you want Canonical support, you need to contact them and contract them for that | 15:12 |
| eyeoh | luxio: let us know how you go with whichever option you take | 15:12 |
| Zuhaitz | hggdh, I dont want canonical support, I just dont want be insulted | 15:12 |
| eyeoh | as for the Ultimate version; it's a free trial so if you want to see, I guess try that | 15:12 |
| hggdh | Zuhaitz: if you think this is a bug open a bug -- I would guess against seahorse -- by running "ubuntu-bug seahorse" | 15:12 |

| Zuhaitz | I did something wrong: I changed a password that I was using for a long time, and I forgot it (not really, just some uppercase or something like that), but Nautilus in Gnome Shell under Ubuntu should remember it as I clicked "remember password", that is a bug for sure. I did the wrong thing, I know, but if Gnome or nautilus didnt (I dont know conditional in english) could rememeber it now, I could mount it and save it in the internal | 15:14 |
| Zuhaitz | hd then format the external again. | 15:14 |
| Zuhaitz | hggdh, I'will | 15:14 |
| luxio | eyeoh: installing the snap seems to have worked | 15:14 |
| Zuhaitz | I know is -my- fault, but without the bug, my fault could be saved with copy and format and copy... | 15:14 |

| Zuhaitz | :/ | 15:15 |
| eyeoh | my understanding is that the ultimate one is for pros/money makers | 15:15 |
| hggdh | Zuhaitz: I understand your point of view, but there is nothing else to be done *right* now | 15:15 |

| zarzar | i'm trying to get opkg tools installed on my ubuntu, the guides i have founf are all stale relative to the opkg source hosted on yocto project org, is there a guide? | 15:27 |
| redleek_ | leftyfb: sorry, new to IRC, just testing commands in different channels. Sorry if I disturbed you. | 15:28 |
| leftyfb | redleek_: IRC pinging people isn't appropriate | 15:28 |
| redleek_ | leftyfb: my understanding was that it gave the ping time, not notify when someone pinged you | 15:29 |
| redleek_ | leftyfb: again, my apologies | 15:30 |
| leftyfb | danili_: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/g68dfCcxGb/ write that to the contents of /etc/default/tftpd-hpa and make sure it's owned by root | 15:30 |
| danili_ | redleek_, I also got a notification from when you pinged me | 15:30 |
| redleek_ | danili_: sorry | 15:31 |
| danili_ | leftyfb, this is the content of /etc/default/tftpd-hpa at the moment https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/XPYNQ7VG3g/ and it's owned by root already | 15:34 |
| deusexmachina | no one knows a way to OC my gpu in ubuntu? | 15:35 |
| leftyfb | danili_: sudo mkdir /tmp-files && sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/tftpd-hpa* /tmp-files/ && sudo apt remove --purge tftpd-hpa | 15:35 |
| svip | I have installed nvidia-driver-396, but when I run nvidia-settings (after rebooting), it claims there is no NVIDIA driver loaded. Looking at udevadm monitor, I can see the nvidia module getting removed and added constantly. | 15:35 |
| leftyfb | deusexmachina: that's beyond the scope of this channel | 15:35 |
| deusexmachina | leftyfb, where should I ask? | 15:36 |
| pantato | can anyone help me? | 15:36 |
| leftyfb | !ask | pantato | 15:37 |
| ubottu | pantato: 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 | 15:37 |
| pantato | i did ask the question | 15:37 |
| leftyfb | pantato: reinstall KDE? | 15:38 |
| danili_ | leftyfb, looks like that worked :D Thanks alot! | 15:38 |
| leftyfb | danili_: feel free to delete /tmp-files after you confirm you can install the package again without issue | 15:39 |
| pantato | leftyfb: just one of the packages | 15:40 |
| pantato | i think just worked | 15:41 |
| hggdh | pantato: this is probably because you also got the KDE display manager installed, and selected for default DM. I do not remember the name, but if you run sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 you should be able to select whatever DM you want | 15:41 |
| hggdh | pantato: (DMs that are installed, of course) | 15:42 |
| pantato | hggdh: mm it's weird because i just upgraded to 18.04 from 14.04 and i had lightdm running with 14.04 , still had the crappy logo on boot, though | 15:44 |
| hggdh | pantato: (1) lightdm is not the default DM nowadays; (2) so whatever you did you did a long time ago | 15:45 |
| pantato | hggdh: says i'm running gdm3 right now | 15:47 |
| pantato | i don't understand why i would need kubuntu packages | 15:47 |
| hggdh | pantato: then I did not understand your question. Can you please elaborate? | 15:48 |
| danili_ | leftyfb, tried to reinstall it and ended up at the beginning with this https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/3mQCGmmrBN/ guess there's a problem with the package in the repo :/ Wonder if I could just find the source and compile it myself | 15:49 |
| pantato | hggdh: i installed something that required KDE a long long time ago. I tried to get rid of it before but I guess the boot logo has remained. (this all during 14.04) I just upgraded from 14.04 to 18.04 the other day, decided to clean up a bit and fix my boot logo screen | 15:49 |
| pantato | and the package that seems to allow it to work now is | 15:49 |
| pantato | kubuntu-driver-manager | 15:50 |
| pantato | once I reinstalled that, i could boot again | 15:50 |
| pantato | but when i removed all the kubuntu packages, i couldn't boot. WHy would that be the case if I'm running gdm3? | 15:50 |
| pantato | and have been this entire time | 15:50 |
| hggdh | pantato: wait. you could not *boot*? | 15:52 |
| pantato | hggdh: nope, it appeared to be stuck on some device load or something when i caught a glimpse of it | 15:52 |
| pantato | it was like /dev/sdd1 or something | 15:52 |
| pantato | really strange | 15:52 |
| pantato | it would hang, then i'd be prompted to go to emergency mode or whatever | 15:53 |
| hggdh | pantato: got to answer some work emails, so I will be off for a while. It sounds like the boot process expected a device to be available on boot, and hung there | 15:54 |
| hggdh | now, how this integrates with KDE, IDK | 15:55 |

| lotuspsychje | KLK: check your syslog, and lets have facts whats going on your system | 17:18 |
| lotuspsychje | Randolf: ask your real question to the channel please | 17:18 |
| KLK | lotus what about the bc43cutter ?? what is it what does it do ? | 17:18 |
| lotuspsychje | KLK: b43-fwcutter - utility for extracting Broadcom 43xx firmware | 17:19 |
| KLK | aah ok | 17:19 |
| KLK | lotus,, am i not having the right firmware | 17:19 |
| KLK | ? | 17:19 |
| KLK | god dan it i made this work last nightg | 17:19 |
| lotuspsychje | KLK: cant you recall what you did anymore? check your dpkg logs? | 17:20 |
| KLK | there is nothing ,, i just reinstalled ubuntu | 17:20 |
| lotuspsychje | KLK: why did you reinstall if you got it working before? | 17:21 |
| memphisto | KLK: try doing the following: go to BIOS Setup (press F10 at startup) -> System Configuration -> Built-In Device Options -> enable (double click) the following: Wireless Button state, Embedded WLAN Device, Embedded Bluetooth Device, LAN/WLAN Switching. | 17:22 |
| KLK | lotus because i upgraded from 16.04 to 17 and it crippled my system | 17:22 |
| KLK | First of all its not a bios related problem,, second i dont even have thouse options,, i told u iam sitting on a compaq nx 7300 | 17:23 |
| memphisto | so, you are on clean install of 16.04 or 17.x | 17:24 |
| memphisto | and you have non working wifi | 17:25 |
| KLK | and iam sorry for being like this but this is getting on my nerves | 17:25 |
| memphisto | sorry i came ab it late,,didnt' see what you were writing | 17:25 |
| KLK | iam 2 sec away from putting a hammer throug this lappie | 17:25 |
| lotuspsychje | memphisto: he's on a broadcom and tryed installing few drivers | 17:26 |

| KLK | i need the right firmware to activate my hw button | 17:26 |
| lotuspsychje | bbl | 17:26 |
| Randolf | So, I've got Ubuntu 18.04 LTS installed on my laptop. It is wonderful that it asks if I want to do updates automatically or manually before installing any updates. You folks got this right, and I'm very happy about this. I'm sick and tired of Windows 10 automatically updating and rebooting in the middle of the day, even when it's configured not to do updates. | 17:26 |

| memphisto | and what wifi is it ? lspci |grep -i net | 17:29 |
| nacc | i-make-robots: are you actively using php on your system? | 17:29 |
| KLK | memphis when i boot my computer the wifi hardware buttons lights tunrs on ,, and then after a litle while it turns off again ,, and from there i cant interact with the button ,,, nothing happens when i press it | 17:29 |
| tshirtman | hello, i have a network interface issue on my server, i remember trying to set a bridge network some time ago, and i botched it, but it worked if i typed the right command after boot, now, i rebooted the server months later and i've no idea about the magic i did, and i'd like to get back to the normal setup anyway, so, quick recap, i now have br0 that doesn't work and that had eth2 linked to, but | 17:30 |
| tshirtman | eth2 is nowhere to be found, can't find it in ifconfig or "ip a" or "ip l", i only see virtual interfaces here, i did use brctl to delete the bridge, and setup etc/network/interfaces to setup eth2 (and eth0, just in case) back to dhcp, but even after reboot, i see no change, (except there is no br0 anymore), i can still see the physical device in the output of lspci and lshw, but i see no trace | 17:30 |
| memphisto | KLK: ok, but lets see what does ubuntu see; what drivers does it use; then lets go through syslog/kernel.log | 17:30 |
| tshirtman | of it in any network command i know, any advice? | 17:30 |
| KLK | memphis,, how do i do that,, sorry iam all new at this | 17:31 |
| Pencil2 | have a good day . bye | 17:31 |

| leftyfb | ddoobb: Ubuntu has upgrade methods. Especially between LTS releases | 17:47 |
| ddoobb | nacc I mean updating to a new release of Ubuntu. | 17:48 |
| nacc | ddoobb: you do not need to reinstall to do taht, no. | 17:48 |
| oerheks | upgrading would keep apps, if they are available. | 17:49 |
| ddoobb | leftyfb: I'm suck on a non LTS release, 16.10. No updates through apt-get update | 17:49 |
| nacc | !eolupgrade | ddoobb | 17:49 |
| ubottu | ddoobb: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 17:49 |
| nacc | ddoobb: you are not just a non-LTS, you haven't gotten updates in ... a year? | 17:49 |
| oerheks | do the old-versions dance, la la la | 17:50 |
| leftyfb | ddoobb: follow the link posted, once you get to a recent/supported version of ubuntu, I would highly suggest only upgrading to/sticking with LTS releases | 17:50 |
| oerheks | but that would get you to 17.04, and again, you need to upgrade? | 17:50 |
| leftyfb | yup | 17:50 |
| leftyfb | then to 17.10, then to 18.04 | 17:50 |
| ddoobb | This is on a machine that was catching dust for a year, so don't judge me, please. | 17:50 |
| nacc | ddoobb: if it was just dust, reinstall it then | 17:51 |
| nacc | ddoobb: you weren't using it for at least a year :) | 17:51 |
| oerheks | backup, plugin the iso on usb, and you would get the option too, to upgrade to 18.04 | 17:51 |
| leftyfb | ddoobb: exactly why I'm suggesting sticking with LTS releases. They're supported for 5 years | 17:51 |
| nacc | of the default ubuntu flavor at least, to be clear | 17:51 |

| ddoobb | Would you guys recommend a fresh install or the triple upgrade? | 17:55 |

| wurgle | Hello, I have a question regarding shell scripts. I have a binary file which uses ffmpeg, when I run it as ./file, it runs as intended. However, when running it inside a shell script, it says that ffmpeg command could not be found. I'm able to run the ffmpeg in the folder I'm running the shell script in. | 17:55 |
| i-make-robots | nacc - yes? I'm running apache and php. your question confuses me, I'm unsure what you mean by "actively" | 17:56 |
| oerheks | 1st option: 1 hr, 2nd option can take 1/2 a day | 17:56 |
| leftyfb | wurgle: seek support from the person who developed the binary | 17:56 |
| nacc | i-make-robots: what do you mean too much cpu, essentially. if your system is actively serving web pages at a high rate, fpm will use cpu | 17:56 |
| ddoobb | Alright is there anything that can help with migrating apps, settings to the fresh install as opposed to manual everything? | 17:56 |
| wurgle | I'm the one who developed it, as it is a packaged node.js application | 17:57 |
| leftyfb | ddoobb: have a backup of your /home .. take note of what applications you have installed and just reinstall them with 1 command | 17:57 |
| FishPencil | Is there a way to reset permissions to defaults? | 17:57 |
| oerheks | wurgle, use full path to that script? | 17:57 |
| wurgle | Is there any charge in permission when a binary is run inside a shell script? | 17:57 |
| nacc | FishPencil: not really, no. | 17:57 |
| leftyfb | wurgle: ok, then use the full path to ffmpeg in the binary's code | 17:57 |
| wurgle | also, can you execute binary files as sudo? | 17:58 |
| sncr | maggotbrain: funkadelic, hell yeah | 17:58 |
| wurgle | like you can sh scripts with sudo sh ....? | 17:58 |
| leftyfb | yes | 17:58 |
| nacc | wurgle: of course you can. | 17:58 |
| nacc | wurgle: alsh sh is not what you think it is possible | 17:58 |

| FishPencil | nacc: How about: find foo -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \; ; find foo -type f -exec chmod 555 {} \; | 18:00 |
| nacc | FishPencil: that would set things to 775 and 555 | 18:00 |
| nacc | FishPencil: which may or may not be the default for whatever foo is | 18:01 |
| FishPencil | nacc: it seems to be if I touch file and mkdir folder | 18:01 |
| nacc | then your umask is weird | 18:01 |
| nacc | FishPencil: it makes no sense for all files to be rx for all users | 18:01 |
| nacc | FishPencil: given that most files are *not* executable | 18:02 |
| FishPencil | nacc: you're right, sorry | 18:02 |
| nacc | FishPencil: I told you the answer as "notreally, no". Not sure why you are disregarding that. | 18:02 |

| oerheks | FishPencil, use a VM with ubuntu, to copy permissions.. a lot of work http://sysadminnotebook.blogspot.com/2012/06/how-to-reset-folder-permissions-to.html | 18:02 |
| nacc | FishPencil: also every file you created would not be removable by default (since your user doesn't have write access) | 18:02 |
| FishPencil | nacc: 664 looks default for files, 775 for folders | 18:03 |
| nacc | FishPencil: that might be the default on your system, but that has no correlation to what the permisssions were on those files or directories | 18:05 |
| nacc | FishPencil: did you do something sad like chmod -R ? | 18:05 |

| erle- | this is really a big risk: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2018-15/ | 18:13 |
| oerheks | erle-, current is 60.0.2 | 18:13 |

| leftyfb | SlowJimmy: there's no such thing as Ubuntu 18 or 14 | 18:16 |

| oerheks | erle-, depends on your mirror, i guess, i switched to main but got no update | 18:18 |
| leftyfb | SlowJimmy: Ubuntu 14.04 has ""shared to other computers" as part of network manager | 18:18 |

| erle- | oerheks, I have main server | 18:18 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: why are you running sshd manually? | 18:18 |
| erle- | oerheks, it was released by Mozilla and Ubuntu does not have it yes | 18:18 |
| oerheks | in the next few days.. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/06/firefox-61-released-with-faster-tab-switching-on-linux .. i am still on 17.10 | 18:19 |
| i-make-robots | leftyfb - to debug why i can't login | 18:20 |
| erle- | oerheks, of course it will come eventually | 18:20 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: that's what logs are for | 18:20 |
| erle- | I am just pointing out that it has been two days now which is quite irresponsible | 18:20 |
| i-make-robots | leftyfb - well i'm stupid. which log has ssh info? | 18:20 |
| i-make-robots | :) | 18:20 |
| SlowJimmy | leftyfb no i want it to make its own connection not share its connection or let other systems share its connection, none of the sort. just straight forward i want it to update and connect to the repository | 18:21 |
| SlowJimmy | and it says couldnt resolve host | 18:21 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: start from the beginning. How exactly did you create your ssh keypair? What,where and how did you copy the public key to the server? | 18:21 |
| leftyfb | SlowJimmy: ok, plug in a network cable and set your network settings | 18:22 |
| leftyfb | SlowJimmy: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/network-configuration.html.en | 18:22 |
| i-make-robots | leftyfb - thank you. I make the key pair in bitvise, then exported the .pub and appended it to my authorized_keys file. there was already one public key in there from another device i sometimes use. | 18:23 |
| SlowJimmy | ty, i checked server network status and it claims both adapters are connected among them ethernet | 18:24 |
| i-make-robots | i made sure there were no extra line endings, etc. | 18:24 |
| SlowJimmy | thanks i think your link will clear up the rest | 18:24 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: care to pastebin it? | 18:24 |
| i-make-robots | the authorized_keys file? | 18:24 |
| leftyfb | SlowJimmy: you're missing DNS config | 18:24 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: yes | 18:24 |
| i-make-robots | which pastebin do you prefer? (some people get nasty about some pastebins) | 18:25 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: I don't prefer. Though this being ubuntu's support, I tend to use pastebin.ubuntu.com | 18:25 |
| oerheks | normally i would say, 3 days for firefox, 1 week or more for chromium | 18:25 |
| i-make-robots | leftyfb - https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/HBjQKrjPqM/ | 18:26 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: that doesn't look valid to me | 18:27 |

| i-make-robots | hrm. | 18:27 |
| nacc | i-make-robots: i don'tthink sshd -t checks your authorized_keys file | 18:27 |
| SlowJimmy | leftyfb thx i will look into this | 18:28 |
| nacc | i-make-robots: also, you should use ssh-copy-id to avoid c&p errors | 18:28 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/sFMbxTbkMK/ | 18:28 |
| nacc | i-make-robots: you didn't append your key properly | 18:28 |
| i-make-robots | nacc - can i ssh-copy-id to the server when the server is refusing anyone without a valid pair? there's no password login on this box. | 18:29 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: try the pastebin I just gave you | 18:29 |
| nacc | i-make-robots: ah then no you can't | 18:29 |
| i-make-robots | leftyfb - good call. authorized_keys were badly formatted. thank you! it works. | 18:32 |

| leftyfb | i-make-robots: future reference, /var/log/auth.log | 18:33 |

| sha | someone knows how can I have some indication in bionic dock for new notifications in app? | 18:33 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: it should not be empty if you're running sshd as a service | 18:33 |
| i-make-robots | now i have less-awful access, i can get down to the real problem I came to solve: why php-fpm7 is sucking up 50% of the cpu and delivering pages so damn slowly | 18:33 |
| sha | for example, if I got new message in some IM, so the icon background will be changed? | 18:34 |
| nacc | i-make-robots: check the logs, i guess | 18:34 |
| sha | anyone? | 18:35 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: disable ALL pages. Just put a phpinfo script and hit it and see if you still see resource issues? | 18:35 |
| oerheks | sha, find an indicator for your "new app" in gnome extentions, something like this https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/03/use-indicator-applets-gnome-shell | 18:40 |
| i-make-robots | woah. mysqld using 101.5% cpu? something wrong going on there... | 18:40 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: If this server is public, I would look into abuse. Maybe a wordpress plugin or comments on some page or forum posts | 18:42 |
| sha | oerheks, thanks but I mean intication in the dock | 18:45 |
| oerheks | sha, yes? | 18:45 |

| deskwizard | qwebirc15989: really? damn, let me reconnect ... | 18:48 |
| deskwizard | hehehe ;) | 18:48 |
| oerheks | look in systemsettings, for app indicators settings | 18:49 |
| i-make-robots | leftyfb - any tips for investigating abuse? I don't see spam posts in the forums. | 18:51 |
| leftyfb | i-make-robots: not really. Gotta look up info on your forum. Gotta learn mysql, logging, etc. Basically, you need to be better at running a public server | 18:53 |
| tomreyn | i-make-robots: check webserver access logs. 101.5% cpu can be ok, though, if it's a multi core sytem. | 18:54 |
| qwebirc15989 | oerheks: not seeing any app indicator settings | 18:54 |
| oerheks | ubuntu calls them not ifications | 18:55 |
| sha | oerheks: "yes" what? | 18:55 |
| oerheks | sha yes, you tell us what 'new' app you talk about? | 18:55 |
| oerheks | or do we need to ask? | 18:55 |
| sha | if I have running an app I can see it's icon on the dock (left side), right? | 18:56 |
| ioria | usually | 18:56 |
| blackswan | can anybody suggest a pointy-clicky graphical ldap administration tool suitable for a very small network? | 18:57 |

| oerheks | lolz | 19:02 |
| oerheks | nice attitude, sha | 19:02 |
| sha | but, in ubuntu 16.04 it's worked fine | 19:02 |
| sha | and it's not only this app | 19:03 |

| Urden | my ubuntu upgrade hung during compilation of the virtualbox kernel module :( now i'm afraid to ctrl+c in case something breaks | 19:05 |
| sha | i don't like using snaps, heard about malicious ones | 19:06 |
| sha | I prefer official repos | 19:06 |
| ioria | i see, that why you installed an external pkg, right ? | 19:06 |
| sha | official package repo | 19:08 |
| sha | this package is missing in ubuntu official repos | 19:09 |
| nacc | sha: in the context of this channel, that makes it unofficial | 19:09 |
| sha | snap is official? | 19:09 |
| ioria | Urden, i'am afraid is a bug ... | 19:09 |
| Urden | ioria, yeah, i'm seeing there's something amiss... i killed apt-get, then try to re-run it, and it says i need to manually run dpkg --continue -a | 19:10 |
| ioria | sha something in the middle | 19:11 |
| Urden | so i do, and now its hung at the same spit again | 19:11 |
| ioria | Urden, maybe you need to dpkg -p virtualbox pkgs | 19:11 |
| Urden | -p does what? | 19:11 |
| Urden | purges them? | 19:12 |
| === marve is now known as Guest8966 | ||
| ioria | Urden, yes, but only if apt is broken ... can you confirm this ? | 19:12 |
| Urden | im not sure if apt is broken, it runs fine until it hits this kernel module compiling step...no idea what's causing it to hang | 19:13 |

| oerheks | ohh, that dkms build can take minutes, be patient | 19:13 |
| Urden | i think my friend ran into this same bug earlier | 19:13 |
| oerheks | there should be an indicator, to assure the user, i see this a lot lately | 19:14 |
| Urden | oerheks, ok...i can do that. i thought it was dead cause the CPU usage dropped to normal and nothing seemed to be actively compiling | 19:14 |
| Urden | there should be yeah | 19:14 |
| ioria | Urden, for now, paste dpkg -l | grep virtualbox | 19:14 |
| oerheks | if your caps lock work, no worries | 19:14 |
| Urden | ok | 19:14 |
| Urden | the output of that dpkg -l | grep virtualbox command lists 4 packages | 19:15 |

| ioria | Urden, try to purge with apt.... what i think won't work | 19:17 |
| Urden | ok | 19:18 |
| Urden | so i go through and purge all 4 packages listed? | 19:18 |
| ioria | nope | 19:18 |

| ioria | Urden, remove it :þ ? | 19:33 |
| Urden | im very hesitant to remove anything having to do with the bootloader...i dont want to end up with an unbootable system | 19:33 |
| ioria | Urden, i see | 19:34 |
| Urden | ioria, i'll google around and see what it does...i have a feeling its some sort of wrapper that integrates into secure boot features of EFI or something | 19:34 |
| Urden | thanks, MS :( | 19:34 |
| ioria | Urden, dual booting? | 19:35 |
| Urden | nope...100% ubuntu | 19:35 |
| ioria | Urden, so... remove it | 19:35 |
| ioria | Urden, it's about Microsoft-signed binary) | 19:35 |
| Urden | yeah...and the only reason I can imagine thats needed is to trick the bootloader into thinking its booting an MS OS | 19:35 |
| Urden | probably some stupid shit with this particular laptop | 19:36 |
| ioria | Urden, you can always reinstall it | 19:36 |

| Urden | ahhh ok | 19:37 |
| Urden | thanks hxmuller | 19:37 |
| hxmuller | welcome! | 19:38 |
| Urden | i thought i had SB disabled | 19:38 |
| Urden | i wonder if it somehow got reenabled | 19:38 |
| ioria | Urden, are you sure ? | 19:38 |
| Urden | its just very odd that it would be present in Bionic | 19:39 |
| Urden | i did upgrade this though, so maybe its left over cruft | 19:39 |

| ioria | yep | 19:39 |
| Urden | new kernel module for virtualbox must need it disabled | 19:39 |
| ioria | something like that | 19:40 |
| Urden | ok that will probably solve the problem then | 19:40 |
| Urden | excellent | 19:40 |
| Urden | i'll disable it on next reboot | 19:40 |
| ioria | Urden, you first need a functional apt ... | 19:40 |
| Urden | and my apt is now fixed | 19:40 |
| Urden | i just used it to install pastebinit | 19:40 |
| ioria | Urden, did you remove shim-signed ? | 19:40 |
| Urden | still throws the error about shim-signed | 19:40 |
| Urden | not yet no | 19:41 |

| ioria | Urden, sudo apt install --reinstall shim-signed | 19:41 |

| expl | rmerrill: im curious, why does each need to have a different key? | 19:54 |
| tomreyn | rmerrill: well, i guess you could use a shared secret then. | 19:55 |

| rmerrill | I mean, we could, but it's going to end up on a post-it note on the monitor | 19:55 |

| rmerrill | them having to enter a password at all is kind of a pain as it is | 19:56 |
| rmerrill | The problem with shared secrets is that you lose track of who knows them | 19:56 |
| rmerrill | the closest thing I've found to a real solution is network-bound disk encryption but afaict no turnkey solution for that exists for ubuntu | 19:58 |
| rmerrill | just kinda surprises me that nobody in linuxworld has come up with a solution for this when OS X and windows both seem to have them | 20:00 |

| Urden | Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove it. | 20:05 |
| Urden | can i safely remove shim too? | 20:05 |

| Urden | oops he left :( | 20:06 |
| tim_shop | Urden sudo apt autoremove is save to remove it will only delete packages that are no longer needed | 20:07 |
| tomreyn | rmerrill: yes, sounds solutions are needed, but also safe operation, by everyone. if either fails, security can be compromiosed. for a possible solution, also look into the hooks discussed here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Specialties#Remote_unlocking_of_the_root_.28or_other.29_partition | 20:07 |

| rodrigo__ | is that screwed something up, but now i cant login. I type my login and password, and get the message "Cannot execute /bin/bash: permission denied". I tried to boot from a live cd and changing the permissions of /bin, /, and /lib, but nothing works... | 20:08 |

| rodrigo__ | so, it was working until that moment | 20:12 |
| rmerrill | tomreyn: For any kind of network-bound solution like that I can't imagine that someone equipped with a transcript of network traffic from a successful boot plus an image of the disk couldn't decrypt it | 20:13 |
| === expl is now known as blabla | ||
| rmerrill | Plus, also: how do you then secure the machine that provides this data | 20:14 |
| tomreyn | rmerrill: right, it shiifts the problem elsewhere. | 20:15 |
| rmerrill | It seems like all of the good solutions to this involve using secure enclave/TPM/something like that | 20:16 |
| rmerrill | but that seems to be something that linux people shun | 20:16 |
| blabla | rmerrill: is there maybe some transform you could use that translates all their passwords to the key | 20:20 |
| rmerrill | I mean sure but that involves writing code | 20:20 |
| rmerrill | And in fact that's what luks is already doing but it has an arbitrary limit of 8 passwords for some reason | 20:20 |
| tomreyn | the reson is the size of the header, they had to limit it somehow. you could maybe have multiple (externally stored?) headers and write extra software to choose which header to use. | 20:24 |
| tomreyn | secure enclave / TPM can be nice, if you can be sure that you are the only one to control it. that's not the case with most hardware / firmware implementations these days. | 20:25 |

| nacc | *pacakges | 21:00 |
| Battle | alright thanks illl look into9 this more i must go for nwo, thank you again :) | 21:01 |

| rodrigo__ | blabla: | 21:08 |
| rodrigo__ | sorry the delay | 21:09 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: any commands appeared? | 21:09 |
| rodrigo__ | no | 21:10 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: ok good | 21:10 |
| rodrigo__ | the file .bash_history do not exist, actually | 21:10 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: run sudo chmod 755 /mnt/bin/bash | 21:11 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: what's the status of the other files there? try "ls -l /mnt/bin" and pastebin the results | 21:11 |
| === juno is now known as Guest64702 | ||
| rodrigo__ | ok | 21:16 |
| rodrigo__ | in auth.log i got theses results | 21:16 |
| rodrigo__ | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/jqG3JBnh32/ | 21:17 |
| blabla | that last one is kind of odd | 21:17 |
| blabla | there's no /bin/bash/mouse cause /bin/bash isn't a dir | 21:19 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: anyways what's the output on "ls -l /mnt/bin" ? | 21:20 |
| rodrigo__ | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/xJjQpkQjgq/ | 21:20 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: looks all good, try booting the system! | 21:21 |
| rodrigo__ | ive already tried | 21:21 |
| rodrigo__ | no good | 21:21 |
| blabla | even after the chmod 755 ? | 21:22 |
| rodrigo__ | yep | 21:22 |
| blabla | what did it say? | 21:22 |
| rodrigo__ | cannot execute /bin/bash: permission denied | 21:22 |
| rodrigo__ | (in portuguese, dont now the exact expression in english) | 21:22 |
| rodrigo__ | know* | 21:23 |
| blabla | so you just mounted it again correct? | 21:23 |
| rodrigo__ | ? | 21:23 |
| rodrigo__ | yes | 21:23 |
| rodrigo__ | i rebooted on live cd | 21:24 |
| blabla | ok try "for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done" | 21:24 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: what's giving you that error? when's it happening? | 21:26 |
| rodrigo__ | when i boot from the system partition | 21:26 |
| rodrigo__ | on the login screen | 21:26 |
| blabla | the tty? | 21:27 |
| rodrigo__ | i use my login and password, and nothing happens | 21:27 |
| rodrigo__ | in the terminal i get this message | 21:27 |
| blabla | oh | 21:27 |
| blabla | ok | 21:27 |
| rodrigo__ | and the worst is that i dont have activated the root account, so i cant login in any way | 21:27 |
| blabla | it's weird | 21:28 |
| rodrigo__ | i tried this | 21:28 |
| blabla | we'll try to dive into it | 21:28 |
| rodrigo__ | "for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done" | 21:28 |

| blabla | change the shell for your user to "/bin/sh" | 21:38 |
| blabla | see what happens when you try to login to the tty | 21:38 |
| rodrigo__ | ok | 21:39 |

| rodrigo__ | rebooting | 21:42 |
| rodrigo__ | i think it could be some misconfiguration from my part | 21:42 |

| rodrigo__ | how | 21:48 |
| rodrigo__ | bash? | 21:48 |
| blabla | yeah just that | 21:48 |
| rodrigo__ | it asks for sudo password | 21:48 |
| blabla | huh | 21:48 |
| blabla | type "sudo -l" | 21:49 |
| blabla | do you remember editing something sudo related? | 21:49 |
| rodrigo__ | no | 21:49 |
| rodrigo__ | entrance for default to rodrigo in rod-pc: | 21:49 |
| blabla | how's that possible, running bash asks for sudo O.o | 21:50 |
| blabla | did you edit the bash binary somehow? | 21:50 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall bash" | 21:51 |

| blabla | what does "which bash" give? | 21:51 |
| rodrigo__ | reinstalling bash | 21:52 |
| rodrigo__ | gives: /bin/bash | 21:53 |
| blabla | aha | 21:53 |
| rodrigo__ | now i could enter in bash | 21:53 |
| blabla | aha cool great | 21:53 |
| rodrigo__ | without sudo | 21:53 |
| rodrigo__ | oh | 21:53 |
| blabla | try "chsh" as your user | 21:53 |
| rodrigo__ | solved | 21:53 |
| rodrigo__ | managed to login in the X session | 21:54 |
| blabla | and switch it back to bash | 21:54 |
| rodrigo__ | ok | 21:54 |
| rodrigo__ | thanks man | 21:55 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: i've got to wonder, what was the deal with the old bash binary, was your system compromised at some point? did you install badly written software? | 21:55 |
| rodrigo__ | no | 21:55 |
| rodrigo__ | everything from ubuntu repositories | 21:55 |
| blabla | try "ls -l /bin/bash" again | 21:55 |
| blabla | we can compare sizes | 21:55 |
| blabla | definitely something was odd, the old size was 73 | 21:56 |
| rodrigo__ | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/QzmG6RHs9t/ | 21:57 |
| blabla | maybe it was some script, it's so small to be a binary | 21:57 |
| rodrigo__ | i could have replaced the bash file with some other file accidentally? | 21:57 |
| blabla | yeah possibly | 21:58 |
| Pete234 | Has anyone used slackware and if so, although it's an ubuntu channel, can you state the differences? | 21:59 |
| rodrigo__ | i see | 21:59 |
| rodrigo__ | ok | 21:59 |
| nacc | replacing bash with something else 'accidentally' is a big accident | 21:59 |
| rodrigo__ | haha | 21:59 |
| nacc | Pete234: totally offtopic, please follow the channel guidelines | 21:59 |
| blabla | first line starts with 'sudo' too nacc | 21:59 |
| blabla | i kind of wish we "cat /bin/bash" 'd it now | 21:59 |
| oerheks | Pete234, find Crazytux in ##linux, he is the distrowatch expert | 22:00 |
| rodrigo__ | the computer is very old, so i was trying to do a minimal installation with ubuntu base | 22:00 |
| Pete234 | Not really, it is also linux | 22:00 |
| nacc | Pete234: and this is not a "linux" chat room. | 22:00 |
| blabla | rodrigo__: i think as long you you're fairly confident nobody did something malicious you're ok | 22:01 |
| alpha_Aquilae | mickey trump ? | 22:01 |
| Pete234 | Lol, you mean that Ubuntu is Windows | 22:01 |
| rodrigo__ | yes, it was just me | 22:01 |
| rodrigo__ | thanks a lot for the help | 22:01 |
| blabla | no problem! | 22:01 |
| nacc | Pete234: I don't know what you're talking about. Please follow the guidelines. | 22:01 |
| Pete234 | The guidelines refer to Ubuntu which is Linux, so I am not sure what you are talking about either | 22:02 |
| nacc | Pete234: this is the ubuntu support channel, not the general linux discussion channel. | 22:04 |
| nacc | Pete234: your question has nothing to do with ubuntu support, so please take it to an appropriate channel. | 22:04 |
| alpha_Aquilae | ubuntrump 18.06 dynamic donald | 22:04 |
| grg | yikes | 22:04 |
| Pete234 | Lol, you support Ubuntu, therefore, you may as well discuss some technicalities | 22:05 |
| grg | is that ubuntu with a lack of a firewall? | 22:05 |
| nacc | alpha_Aquilae: grg: please stay ontopic too :) | 22:05 |
| grg | :+1: | 22:05 |
| alpha_Aquilae | ya! | 22:05 |
| oerheks | Pete234, thank you, we will | 22:05 |
| nacc | Pete234: no, that is not the purpose of this channel. Your question is better suited for #ubuntu-offtopic or ##linux. | 22:05 |
| Pete234 | Off topic means that you are not really providing support....maybe you could try making those channels one | 22:07 |
| nacc | Pete234: what? please use the appropriate channel. You don't have an ubuntu support topic, so this is not the correct channel. Also, in the time you've spent arguing, I'm fairly sure you could have googled and found your answer. | 22:09 |
| Pete234 | Come on budd, dont be so hard on yourself, we are just chatting about technical stuff. It's not politics or better yet, it is not an institution | 22:11 |
| blackflow | there's also #ubuntu-discuss for ubuntu related, non-support discussion. | 22:11 |
| Pete234 | cool, I will try that... in the meantime, why dont you just tell me a few things in regards to slackware vs ubuntu | 22:12 |
| oerheks | that is enough, Pete234, keep this channel clear for ubuntu support, thanks. | 22:12 |
| oerheks | you are told where to go | 22:12 |
| genii | Pete234: #ubuntu-discuss would be the channel for that partucular discussion | 22:13 |
| Pete234 | Sure! So, let me ask you a technical question? What should I do to make Ubuntu 18.0 even more exciting as far as features are concerned? | 22:14 |
| leftyfb | Pete234: there's no such thing as Ubuntu 18.0 | 22:15 |
| leftyfb | Pete234: that's also not a support question. Try #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:15 |
| oerheks | write some software, and publish it. | 22:15 |
| oerheks | !contribute | 22:15 |
| ubottu | To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://community.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu | 22:15 |
| Pete234 | Cool.... but that is what I am using...Is there a different name out there? | 22:16 |
| nacc | Pete234: you are using "18.04" not "18.0" probably. | 22:16 |
| Pete234 | haha, got you... Then what is the answer then | 22:16 |
| leftyfb | Pete234: Ubuntu versions are based on the year and month they were released. 18.04 refers to April(04) 2018 | 22:17 |
| nacc | Pete234: the answer to what? | 22:17 |
| Pete234 | to enhance 18.04 features | 22:17 |
| nacc | Pete234: as leftyb said, that's not a support question, and oerheks gave you a link to contribute with | 22:18 |
| leftyfb | Pete234: again, not a support question. Try googling for "things to do after ubuntu install" | 22:18 |
| nacc | Pete234: do you have any experience with open source software? | 22:18 |
| Pete234 | Like freebsd | 22:19 |

| Battle | hey all so im having a problemw ith my apt upgrade, a user helped me earlier and was able to identify that for some reason, my ubuntu 16.04 received an updated kernel -45 which wasnt available for ubuntu 16.04. im not struggling to get rid of it and mark-hold to prevent it from coming again | 23:01 |
| Battle | apt upgrade, seems ot list the kernel update (regardless of mark hold) and i suspect its because its partially installed...or broke during install....and now i cannot get rid of it | 23:01 |
| leftyfb | Battle: please pastebin what you're talking about | 23:02 |
| Battle | ill get some fresh ones, one moment | 23:02 |

| Battle | yes sorry | 23:02 |
| Battle | https://pastebin.com/pz2X0UDy | 23:04 |
| tomreyn | a better approach than holding some versions or changing apt source priorities would probably be to remove the the apt source which provides the unintended kernel version(s). | 23:04 |
| Battle | this is kinda worrying: grub-probe: error: disk `mduuid/4351570248a139c2fdf813affcbca916' not found. | 23:04 |
