ndw28why is there a vault in kubuntu. Isn't an encrypted FS or ext4 good enough to keep things secure?01:26
ndw28I guess that vault *is* encrypted FS: CryFS and EncFS01:27
ndw28when all else fails - sneaker net it01:27
Unit193'vault' is meant to be a frontend to those things, yes?  (Also will be/is adding gocryptfs support.)01:28
ndw28Has anyone read Crypto by Steven Levy?01:30
ndw28Unit193: ok01:30
proctrapndw28: use veracrypt if you want cross platform encrypted vaults / disks01:40
ndw28proctrap: interesting.. virtualization and encryption01:47

BluesKaj'Morning all09:34
* jubo2 does the new release dance11:23
jubo2I assume this is the official guide to upgrading -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BionicUpgrades/Kubuntu11:23
acheronukjubo2: community docs, but yes11:29
jubo2Bahh.. not enough space on /-partition11:34
jubo2and someone said 15GB is enough11:34
jubo2that is probably true if you make a partition for /usr11:34
jubo2my /-partition is 20GB and I've already cleaned out the old kernels and still missing 1.3GB to perform the distribution upgrade11:35
jubo2Should I resize partitions?11:35
jubo2I better do that with Gparted since KDE Partition Manager is a tad bit buggy11:36
BluesKajjubo2, 20GB should  be plenty for /, unless you have a lot of apps installed after the defaults11:37
jubo2BluesKaj: Is it possible to move the contents of the /-partition to the other partition if the other partition is mounted as /home ?11:38
jubo2I regret making a distinct /-partition and I've already forgot why it is recommended by some11:38
BluesKajno11:38
jubo2Ok so resize?11:38
BluesKajjubo2, run df -h and pastebin it, so we can have a look11:39
jubo2okays11:39
jubo2BluesKaj: https://paste.debian.net/1035820/11:40
BluesKajwow jubo2 , what have you got in / that uses so much space?11:41
jubo2I dunno exactly11:42
jubo2the 17.10 does not remove old kernels automatically but I cleaned out those already with Synaptic11:43
BluesKajI have a full compliment of apps in / and it's only using 9.6 GB of 1611:44
BluesKajjubo2, run sudo apt-get autoremove then, sudo apt-get autoclean11:45
jubo2okays11:45
jubo2BluesKaj: those removed nothing11:46
jubo2This OS was originally 17.04 which I upgraded to 17.10 .. maybe something is broken11:46
BluesKajok, then you must have a lot of apps installed that I don't11:47
BluesKajsuggest you add at least 5GB to your / partition11:48
jubo2BluesKaj: Gparted?11:48
BluesKajyup11:48
BluesKajlive media11:48
jubo2I boot to the USB stick and then do it?11:48
jubo2s/to/from/11:48
BluesKajusb, cd, dvd, whatever will boot11:49
jubo2I better get a list of all installed apps and put that in a safe place.. just in case this goes belly-up11:49
acheronukncdu -x /11:50
acheronukshould allow you to find out where the space is taken up11:50
jubo2If I list the installations with 'dpkg --get-selections' I can later on feed that list to apt-get to get all the programs back if the system breaks on the partition resizing or something. Right?11:51
acheronukfwiw, my /usr is 12.8 GB11:52
acheronuk /var is 10.1 GB11:53
acheronukI need a clean out11:53
=== Tin_man is now known as Guest33307
jubo2acheronuk: running 'ncdu -x /' now11:54
acheronukyou could also have something like a small hardware error spamming a log file constantly, making it huge11:54
BluesKajjubo2, what are you afraid of, sudo do-release-upgrade should run just fine , as long as you update and upgrade your exsiting packages first11:55
jubo2everything is up-to-date now11:55
jubo2BluesKaj: I'm afraid the resizing partitions could go wrong11:56
acheronukwow. apt-cacher-ng is using 6.7 GB in /var/cache/11:57
BluesKajthink you may want to check acheronuk 's suggestion about a hardware error11:57
* acheronuk cleans that11:57
acheronukcan be many things. I wondered where space went a while back, and it was a 15 GB lxd zfs pool that it puts on the root partition by default11:58
jubo2BluesKaj: acheronuk: Here is the output of 'ncdu -x /' https://paste.debian.net/1035822/11:59
acheronukjubo2: you can navigate to the subfolders with ncdu :)11:59
jubo2Something weird maybe.. the kernel stuff is showing 0.0B11:59
jubo2acheronuk: oh cool11:59
jubo2I better store this command in my command-cheat-sheet.txt12:00
jubo2maybe running the ncdu without root privileges stops it from looking at the kernel-y places12:01
acheronukqdirstat is a graphical sort of equivalent :)12:02
jubo2Stored. Thank you acheronuk for the tip12:03
jubo2I go boot from the Kubuntu 18.04.1 stick and resize the partitions to give /-partition some space12:05
jubo2It's ok to use the 18.04.1 to resize partitions of a 17.10, right?12:05
jubo2I boot from stick now. Bye.12:07
jubo-on-a-stickok.. gonna resize the partitions now12:12
jubo-on-a-stickI better not mess this up12:12
BluesKajI still don't see what could be taking up so much space12:13
jubo-on-a-stickoh crap. /dev/sda1 is "extended" and /dev/sda5 which is mounted as /-partition is in there meanwhile /dev/sda2 is not12:13
jubo-on-a-stickBluesKaj: me neither.. the 'ncdu' found only 10GB of stuff12:14
jubo-on-a-stickbut it was probably due to that I run it as a normal user12:14
jubo-on-a-stick.. so it could not see the kernel related places. Maybe..12:15
BluesKajwhat makes you think that, I ran that command as root and found no difference at all12:16
BluesKajnot as root but with root permissions rather12:16
jubo-on-a-stickso /dev/sda5 (mounted as the /-partition) is under /dev/sda1 (which is marked as type "extended") .. is this going to work if I reduce the size of the /home-partition and then grow the /dev/sda1 and then grow the /dev/sda5 ?12:17
jubo-on-a-stickI try. Got full backups of everything essential.. I think..12:19
* jubo-on-a-stick crosses fingers and hits "apply" in Gparted12:21
jubo-on-a-stickOkays.. this is gonna take a while. Estimate is 2 hrs for copying 300GB12:23

jubo-on-a-stickOk... root partition is now bigger14:58
jubo-on-a-stickI think it gonna fail to boot.. there was a warning that if you do something to the partition where /boot is then that may lead to non-booting state but there are ways to fix it14:59
jubo-on-a-stickI'll just try booting first and if it doesn't work then I need to boot back to this USB stick14:59
jubo2nah.. startup just fine after resizing partitions15:04
jubo2now.. 'sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade' and 'sudo do-distribution-upgrade' <- was this the right command btw?15:04
BluesKaj sudo do-release-upgrade, jubo215:07
jubo2thanks BluesKaj. now running it15:07

TBotNikAll: Kubuntu 16.04 LTS has totally trashed itself Tried the Live DVD to restore but there is no restore/recovery on mine.  Where do I get a live dvd with recovery?15:39
geniiThere is no specific "Recovery" option on liveDVD/USB. You just boot up into the live system and use that to figure out and fix issues, installing whatever tools may be required into the live-running system15:47

TBotNikgenii: Thanks!  Never had to do it that way before.  I have no cmd line or anything.  Only have Dolphin and learning how to call all apps, etc from there!16:15
TBotNikgenii: My Kernal seems to be in tack, but the desktop is totally destroyed.  About a week ago, I did nothing, but the system assigned "Desktop" to the "Start" icon and erased all icons on my systems panel.  Then last week, again I did nothing, the system completely erased the entire panel.  If I can't fix this before 3pm today, I'll be on Debian and will never come back to any flavor of Ubuntu.  They took all the dev capabilitiy16:28
TBotNikoff 16.04 and it's totally useless, except as a "Windows for Dummies" user!  We on Linux want nothing to look like, smell like, act like Windows.  Windows is 20 years behind and will never catch up!16:28
