| feedbackmoitor | Hi, I did a local apt get install of VLC and it is too buggy to run (because of my graphics driver). Where can I get a separate install of VLC media player? Not a repo one? I went to the official site and the ubuntu repo kicked in when I installed it. If I recall, there is another way to get VLC | 00:09 |
|---|---|---|
| feedbackmoitor | I was able to do it before, someone helped me here, but like a goof I did not write it down. | 00:10 |
| leftyfb | feedbackmoitor: a "separate install" of vlc probably isn't going to make any difference | 00:10 |
| feedbackmoitor | leftyfb, It did, it was a stand alone install that had its own dependencies | 00:11 |
| leftyfb | feedbackmoitor: you could try the snap: sudo snap install vlc | 00:11 |
| feedbackmoitor | ahh | 00:11 |
| feedbackmoitor | leftyfb, : - ) | 00:15 |

| dedze | Hello, it seems I have 4 speech-dispatcher opened, I never opened them and I googled what it is and I have never used the accessibility options from ubuntu (they are disabled), should I worry about it? How can I turn this off? | 01:44 |

| lotuspsychje | rex: yes with gnome-tweak-tool | 02:01 |
| coldpresent | hey all, i have two programs that depend on the same /usr/lib/libproxy.so.1, but one requires a ELF 32-bit, while the other requires a ELF 64-bit | 02:24 |
| coldpresent | but both programs point to the same libproxy file, how do I divert each program to the correct *-bit file? | 02:25 |
| Delvien | Does anyone know how to change audio profiles via terminal? | 02:25 |
| jehorn | I have had a 32 bit and 64 bit version of the same program. What I did was install the 32-bit development libraries. I never had a problem with the 32 bit program trying to use the 64 bit library after I installed them. | 02:27 |
| coldpresent | jehorn: thanks for your advice, but these are separate 32-bit and 64-bit programs | 02:28 |
| coldpresent | there is no 64-bit version of the 32-bit program, and there is no 32-bit version of the 64-bit program | 02:28 |
| Delvien | I found my own answer: pactl set-card-profile 0 output:hdmi-stereo+input:analog-stereo (for future reference) and you can find audio profiles via: pacmd list-cards | 02:29 |
| rex | Okay, that worked. Now, can I changed "20:49" to something like "08:49 PM" in the top bar? | 02:29 |
| rex | I only see other date options | 02:29 |
| lotuspsychje | rex: yes options are limited, is that what you were looking for? | 02:30 |
| rex | Partially | 02:30 |
| lotuspsychje | rex: what did you have in mind? | 02:30 |
| rex | I just want to change it off of 24 time | 02:30 |
| rex | 24 hour time | 02:30 |
| rex | Everything else is as I want it | 02:31 |
| lotuspsychje | rex: holdon lemme check in dconf | 02:31 |
| lotuspsychje | rex: got it | 02:34 |
| lotuspsychje | rex: install dconf-tools then with dconf-editor goto: org/gnome/desktop/interface | 02:34 |
| Rockwood | how can i find the large file of a folder in unbuntu? | 02:34 |
| Bashing-om | Rockwood: Something like ' du -h /<dir> | sort -nr ' . | 02:36 |
| Rockwood | Bashing-om, for largest file in folder and this folder have many sub dictionaries? | 02:43 |
| Rockwood | right i can see only folders size right now | 02:43 |
| rex | lotuspsychje: Thanks much! | 02:46 |
| Bashing-om | Rockwood: ' ls -al <dir> ' do what you want ? | 02:47 |
| jehorn | coldpresent: Have you tried sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt-get update then sudo apt-get install whateverlib-dev:i386 that should install the 32 bit version of whatever library you need. | 02:47 |
| Rockwood | du -a /var/www/improvement/ | sort -n -r works for me | 02:49 |
| Bashing-om | Rockwood: :) | 02:49 |
| Rockwood | Bashing-om, how i could use "| pastebin"? | 02:49 |
| Rockwood | Bashing-om, thanks for help | 02:51 |
| Bashing-om | Rockwood: ' sudo apt install pastebinit ' . Then pipe the commanf result to pastebinit . ' du -a /var/www/improvement/ | sort -n -r | pastebinit ' . | 02:53 |
| Rockwood | Bashing-om, thanks again :) | 02:53 |
| Bashing-om | Rockwood: Though you did ask about pastebin .. one can use for instance terminbin.com with out having to install any utility . | 02:57 |
| Rockwood | Bashing-om, can i make log like composer update | pastebinit? | 03:09 |
| Bashing-om | Rockwood: one 'cats' a log file . ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999 ' for instance . | 03:11 |
| nacc | althoguh i think the above case, i do think `composer update` does print to stdout so it would work | 03:20 |
| Rockwood | nacc, works | 03:21 |

| guiverc | Aliekezhi, i mount via command (or fstab auto), and refer to NFS shares only via directory (hence file manager doesn't care that it's a network fs) - don't know how to handle only in file.manager sorry | 06:42 |

| relyant | So I'm switching full time from Windows. Therefore I now have a free SSD with 200GB. Ubuntu is on a 64GB SSD. So now I see 2 options: KVM to use both SSDs or to make a RAID 10 with a partition on the existing slow HDD i also have. Any thoughts? | 06:46 |
| relyant | *LVM | 06:46 |
| ducasse | relyant: be aware that if you make an lvm volume that spans across two physical disks, if one disk fails you lose all your data | 06:51 |
| relyant | i know. that wouldn't be a big issue. i would just set up some other way to backup the ssd's | 06:52 |
| relyant | how do you think the performance with raid 10 and a slow hdd would be? | 06:53 |
| === r0Oter is now known as r00ter | ||
| ducasse | the hdd will slow it down, of course, you really need to test to see how much | 06:56 |
| relyant | so a kvm with regular backups to a hdd would definetly be faster? | 06:57 |
| relyant | *lvm again | 06:57 |
| ducasse | if it only spans the two ssds, yes | 06:58 |
| relyant | Ok. Last question. Is there an easy way to do this without reinstalling the OS? | 06:59 |
| ducasse | you can copy the data across, edit fstab and reinstall grub | 07:01 |
| relyant | Ok. Thank you very much ducasse and have a nice day :) | 07:01 |
| ducasse | relyant: no problem, same to you :) | 07:03 |

| solars | quick question: I have added https://launchpad.net/~unit193/+archive/ubuntu/encryption but can't find a package veracrypt - why is that? | 07:14 |
| alexcold | I need help. I need to mount encrypted Apple Core Storage partition (I have password) | 07:14 |
| ryuo | alexcold: that's probably using a proprietary encryption system. i doubt you can mount it under Linux. | 07:15 |
| ducasse | solars: which release are you on? | 07:15 |
| ryuo | alexcold: if that's important to you, you'd probably be better served using veracrypt or something like it. | 07:16 |

| motte | hi, does anyone have any experience with usb 3.0 to ethernet adapters? i'm experiencing slow upload speeds with a lenovo usb3.0 adapter. speedtest-cli shows about 4mbit/s, rated speed is 50mbit/s. it does occasionally get the right speed. the same setup works fine on another ubuntu machine and the logs show no errors | 07:19 |
| solars | ducasse: so the veracrypt package is only in the new release? | 07:25 |
| ducasse | solars: it's only in supported releases, this is true of most ppas | 07:26 |
| === acheronuk_ is now known as acheronuk | ||
| solars | ducasse: ah alright, thank you | 07:29 |
| ducasse | solars: also you need to upgrade to get security patches etc, you've been without updates for a while now | 07:30 |
| xX1523Xx | hi | 07:31 |
| alexcold | thanks ryuo | 07:32 |
| ryuo | alexcold: LUKS is what Linux natively supports. Some ports of it exists elsewhere. but veracrypt is a cross-platform solution. | 07:33 |
| guiverc | solars, that repo says clearly "This PPA currently publishes packages for Bionic, Xenial, and Trusty." | 07:34 |
| alexcold | where can i find veracrypt? | 07:34 |
| ryuo | alexcold: seems Ubuntu doesn't ship with it. you'll need to use a PPA i believe. | 07:37 |
| ryuo | alexcold: you'll also need a filesystem that's cross-platform. | 07:38 |
| ryuo | alexcold: probably NTFS or FAT32 these days. i'm assuming macOS can use ntfs-3g. | 07:38 |
| ducasse | alexcold: https://launchpad.net/~unit193/+archive/ubuntu/encryption - note that this is unsupported | 07:39 |
| ryuo | alexcold: or even exFAT. | 07:40 |
| ryuo | not many good options for removable file systems... | 07:40 |

| Mr-Potter | Hello is anyone able to say which version of ubuntu will run on a lenovo ideapad s10-2 | 09:34 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: for testing we always advice to run a liveusb first | 09:36 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: seeing your hardware works==> physical install | 09:36 |
| Mr-Potter | lotuspsychje: Good idea. | 09:37 |
| Mr-Potter | I'm having some difficulty choosing which distro | 09:37 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: as you are here in #ubuntu, we reccomend you ubuntu | 09:38 |
| Mr-Potter | Thanks will do | 09:38 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: or did you mean ubuntu flavor? | 09:39 |
| cpctr | hi sir | 09:40 |
| adrian_1908 | hi sir! | 09:40 |
| ledeni | sentiment: can you boot with 'noapic' in grub and see you network card work | 09:41 |
| Mr-Potter | lotuspsychje: I meant both. | 09:41 |
| Mr-Potter | Which ubuntu flavor would you recommend for an old netbook? | 09:42 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: older hardware we reccomend lubuntu or xubuntu | 09:42 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: but that depends really on 'how' old? | 09:42 |
| Mr-Potter | Got it | 09:43 |
| adrian_1908 | Mr-Potter: Some people swear on "Lubuntu", but I found it lacking too much in convenience. I really like Xubuntu (Xfce), with some post installation customization. | 09:43 |
| Mr-Potter | Awesome thanks | 09:43 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: if its not too old, you can try ubuntu-mate also | 09:44 |
| Mr-Potter | lotuspsychje: Got it | 09:44 |
| adrian_1908 | lotuspsychje: The notebook model looks to be an Intel Atom from about decade ago, that might struggle considerably. | 09:45 |
| lotuspsychje | adrian_1908: sorry, i missed the specs | 09:46 |
| Mr-Potter | adrian_1908: What about Lubuntu? | 09:48 |
| adrian_1908 | Mr-Potter: should be among the lightest Ubuntu distros you can find, lighter than Xubuntu or Ubuntu Mate. I just didn't like it much when i tried it years go (was quite unpolished), but plenty of users do.# | 09:49 |
| Mr-Potter | got it | 09:50 |
| lotuspsychje | depends on the machine really, i had one case where an old aspire runned xubuntu better | 09:50 |
| adrian_1908 | Mr-Potter: As lotuspsychje said, you can/should try a Live CD. So just test drive it (and possibly others) and decide then. | 09:50 |
| Mr-Potter | got it | 09:50 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: and a last idea, 18.04 has now a minimal option, perhaps good for your case? | 09:51 |
| Mr-Potter | good idea :) | 09:51 |
| Mr-Potter | which desktop enviornment do you mean? | 09:51 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: all 18.04 flavors should now have the choice in setup | 09:52 |
| Mr-Potter | ok | 09:52 |
| lotuspsychje | full install/minimal | 09:52 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: just keep in mind, minimal might need some tweaks afterwards | 09:53 |
| lotuspsychje | Mr-Potter: but will give you nice low space install | 09:53 |
| Mr-Potter | ok | 09:53 |

| cappe | hello! having put latest ubuntu into a usb driver with rufus, when I boot the computer with the usb as first boot option I get to GNU-grub "minimal bash-like" how do I from there continue the booting into the installation of ubuntu? when I try "boot" at the commandline it states I need to load kernel first | 10:21 |
| cappe | ? | 10:25 |
| hateball | !patience | cappe | 10:26 |

| hateball | I personally have no experience making live-boots from Windows | 10:27 |
| crackpotmark | cappe: that sounds like you get to a grub cmd line either because it can't find a valid config or your e key is stuck down | 10:28 |
| crackpotmark | Try making the live USB again | 10:28 |
| cappe | ok | 10:28 |
| crackpotmark | It's a little complex to manually boot from there | 10:28 |
| cappe | exactly | 10:29 |

| cappe | when I do this in rufus, do I need to keep something special in mind? | 10:29 |
| cappe | ok | 10:29 |
| ducasse | you shouldn't need to do anything to boot, sounds like it's not written correctly | 10:29 |

| leftyfb | ok, reboot. Lets see if it shows up in NM after boot | 13:06 |
| leftyfb | BluesKaj: what does resolv.conf have to do with getting NM to see the card or be able to set a static ip or get an ip from dhcp? | 13:06 |
| sentiment | I don't have ifupdown | 13:06 |
| leftyfb | sentiment: ifupdown is the package name that includes ifup and ifdown | 13:07 |

| sentiment | and i connected it to the tv after buying, then to this PC | 13:36 |
| leftyfb | ok, so it's possible your router isn't even giving a link to the ethernet and certainly possible it's not giving out ip's | 13:37 |
| sentiment | TV because it was the quickest way to ensure it does work basically | 13:37 |
| leftyfb | sentiment: can you verify (without rebooting anything) that you can plug a different device into the router and get a link and an ip from it? | 13:37 |
| sentiment | it works in Windows | 13:37 |
| leftyfb | sentiment: when was the last time you verified this? Have you rebooted/powercycled the router since? | 13:38 |
| sentiment | leftyfb: I can try its wifi, and the TV rj45 port, but that requires switching the device off | 13:38 |
| leftyfb | sentiment: it requires switching what device off? | 13:39 |
| sentiment | leftyfb: no reboot. tried booting into windows before upgrading the kernel as lotuspsychje suggested | 13:39 |
| sentiment | and it worked | 13:39 |
| leftyfb | ok | 13:39 |
| sentiment | in Windows I tried switching off the WOL shutdown setting | 13:39 |
| leftyfb | lets continue troubleshooting ubuntu then .... | 13:39 |
| sentiment | because some people said it might be connected to this issue | 13:39 |
| leftyfb | sentiment: sudo ethtool -s enp2s15 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off | 13:40 |
| sentiment | leftyfb: the TV is in another room. I will have to switch off the router | 13:40 |
| sentiment | leftyfb: I can try the router's WIFI though | 13:40 |
| leftyfb | no | 13:40 |
| leftyfb | you already confirmed that earlier this morning you tested from Windows using the same router and ethernet cable that you can get an ip. We're good with that | 13:41 |
| guiverc | sentiment, your DHCP server isn't limiting itself to just known devices (mac etc) is it?? your 'windows' device may be known, the old-ethernet card may not be on the list... (comment only; i haven't been following) | 13:41 |
| leftyfb | guiverc: it's the same device/MAC | 13:44 |
| leftyfb | guiverc: dual boot | 13:44 |

| hfp | Hi, I am running Ubuntu 18.04 and I can't get the sound to work properly... It will work when I just rebooted and then fail at some point. If I run `pulseaudio -D` it says Daemon startup failed. If I `amixer -D pulse sset Master 5%+`, it shows an error about being unable to connect to pulse audio. I am using i3wm if that makes a difference. I have nothing in my /etc/pulse/client.conf (everything is commented) | 14:04 |
| etraga | I think is because the "java" application is not the same as the shell script for the system so it doesn't rely .desktop file with jar | 14:04 |

| Walker | I can log in but I get logged out immediately. | 16:13 |
| leftyfb | Walker: desktop or command line? | 16:13 |
| donpete | Well another question, is it possible to setup a virtual windows on ubuntu 18.04 without a VTX enabled bios? | 16:13 |
| Walker | Happens from server console and also from ssh which I installed during installation | 16:13 |
| Walker | Command line | 16:13 |
| Walker | Also tried several versions of ubuntu server (16.04.1 16.04.5 18.04.1( | 16:14 |
| leftyfb | Walker: you get logged out immediately when logging in through the console? | 16:14 |
| Walker | right | 16:14 |
| Walker | The welcome message is shown | 16:14 |
| Walker | And then immediately disconnect | 16:14 |
| nacc | donpete: 'virtual windows'? do you mean windows in a VM? | 16:14 |
| Walker | Or back to login prompt | 16:14 |
| leftyfb | Walker: try logging in and immediately unplugging your keyboard | 16:14 |
| donpete | Lol.. yeah.....exactly! Windows in a vm | 16:15 |
| leftyfb | donpete: I'm pretty sure you need VTX support to run Windows VM's | 16:15 |
| nacc | donpete: ... i wouldn't wnt to run windows without acceleration ina vm | 16:15 |
| leftyfb | donpete: Are you thinking of running Windows in a VM just to be able to run a webserver? | 16:16 |
| nacc | donpete: i wouldn't want to run *any* vm without acceleration | 16:16 |
| Walker | leftyfb: no difference | 16:16 |
| leftyfb | Walker: I've never heard of such a thing | 16:16 |
| Walker | Keyboard should not make a difference since it doesn't work from ssh either | 16:16 |
| donpete | That's what I thought.... but you guys arent answering any questions but rather fulling around | 16:16 |
| kahidna | you can run windows on vm without VTX | 16:16 |
| nacc | donpete: don't be rude. | 16:16 |
| nacc | kahidna: but would you actually want to? :) | 16:17 |
| kahidna | but you can only use single core | 16:17 |
| leftyfb | donpete: we've answered all of your questions so far | 16:17 |
| nacc | kahidna: without vtx, it's emulated, so using a core or not seems irrelevant. | 16:17 |
| Walker | even changing tty to a different one on login makes no difference | 16:17 |
| donpete | so, what do you use in order to run windows without vtx? | 16:18 |
| leftyfb | Walker: I'm running ubuntu 16.04 on multiple r610's and don't have this issue | 16:18 |
| Walker | I did too, so its very odd. | 16:18 |
| kahidna | I have vm with installed windows, but its only to maintain my printer :P | 16:18 |
| leftyfb | donpete: Why do you need to run Windows in a VM without VTX support? | 16:18 |
| Walker | It also ran on that same machine weeks ago | 16:18 |
| nacc | donpete: you are assuming any of us run windows. | 16:18 |
| Walker | And I didnt change any parts | 16:19 |
| leftyfb | Walker: sounds like a weird hardware issue then. Maybe try upgrading all the BIOS/firmware? | 16:19 |
| donpete | You tell me.. | 16:19 |
| leftyfb | donpete: Why do you need to run Windows in a VM without VTX support? | 16:19 |

| Walker | Could it be some kind of read only mode? | 16:20 |
| ioria | Walker, more a permission issue | 16:20 |

| ioria | Walker, save session ? what you mean ? | 16:21 |
| Walker | isnt the login creating some session file upon login? | 16:22 |
| leftyfb | Walker: a default install of ubuntu will not have the issue you are explaining. Especially across multiple LTS versions of ubuntu. Your issue is outside of ubuntu from what I can tell. | 16:22 |
| Walker | Okay I will look into that soon. | 16:23 |
| kahidna | walker : I've also experience throwing back after typing username and password on ubuntu. and after do some research I'm running out of / partition | 16:23 |
| ioria | Walker, just to be sure : | 16:23 |
| ioria | Walker, ls -dl /home/$USER | 16:23 |
| Walker | How am I supposed to run any command if I can't even log in? :o | 16:24 |
| kahidna | you can use CLI mode | 16:24 |
| kahidna | ctrl+alt+f1 | 16:24 |
| ioria | Walker, recovery | 16:24 |
| leftyfb | kahidna: they are | 16:24 |
| Walker | Ahh okay, I don't have any desktop on the server ;) | 16:24 |
| Walker | Will try in a couple of minutes | 16:24 |
| Walker | Takes some time to reboot :D | 16:24 |
| kahidna | aw, I'm just telling my experience with desktop | 16:25 |
| leftyfb | yeah, stupid lifecycle stuff, takes forever | 16:25 |
| leftyfb | kahidna: they're not running desktop | 16:25 |
| kahidna | sorry, my bad | 16:25 |
| Walker | That were the posts I also found about desktop, but that didn't help me ^^ | 16:25 |
| nacc | you can boot into recovery on server too, of course and then check the disk from there | 16:26 |
| leftyfb | Walker: you could try recovery mode and check disk space, but I'm going with a hardware issue and you should look into upgrading bios/firmware | 16:26 |
| Walker | Thanks guys, will check those things and come back soon :) | 16:26 |
| Walker | Could this also happen if one volume group is still initialising? | 16:27 |
| waterxx | is the built in media player in lubuntu any good or should i install vlc? | 16:27 |
| waterxx | currently the videos wont even open :) | 16:28 |
| Walker | Just to make sure I don't run into that kind of problem later on | 16:28 |
| jehorn | I wouldn't say the default media player in Lubuntu is bad, but VLC is a pretty awesome. I use it anyway. | 16:29 |
| jehorn | You might have better luck playing videos with VLC, It wouldn't hurt to try it. | 16:31 |
| ddelony | If VLC can't play it, nobody can. | 16:32 |
| kahidna | waterxx: try gnome-mplayer | 16:34 |
| waterxx | kahidna I think thats the one im using, if it is the default for lubuntu | 16:35 |
| waterxx | im gonna try vlc and see if there is any differance | 16:37 |
| kahidna | yes, for the alternative you can use vlc, | 16:38 |
| kahidna | you can install more codec for the vlc | 16:38 |
| waterxx | im used to windows so doing anything on linux takes a while for me. since im noob | 16:38 |
| waterxx | like even connecting my usb and place files on desktop took me a while lol | 16:38 |
| kahidna | no worries, everybody was noob before became expert | 16:39 |
| waterxx | ^^ | 16:39 |

| lotuspsychje | qwebirc47449: you can st your cdrom/usb as source in software&sources to grab packages from your installl media | 19:40 |
| lotuspsychje | qwebirc47449: sometime its needed to install wifi driver like that, broadcom for example in the /pool dir | 19:40 |
| waterxx | lotuspsychje if u still wanna help me out i did the command u told me yesterday | 19:40 |
| waterxx | https://pastebin.com/Va5Pw6bX | 19:40 |
| lotuspsychje | waterxx: what was it about? | 19:40 |
| waterxx | lotuspsychje it was about my old laptop graphics driver | 19:40 |

| lotuspsychje | waterxx: for some reason the ati card brand doesnt show, but radeon driver seems loaded | 19:41 |
| lotuspsychje | waterxx: video on youtube or vlc local? | 19:41 |
| waterxx | I just tried with vlc, 1080p was rly bad, but 720 seemd a bit better | 19:43 |
| waterxx | still the audio is cracking/chopping | 19:43 |
| lotuspsychje | waterxx: 1080p on a lower system can be choppy, normal | 19:43 |
| waterxx | ok | 19:43 |
| lotuspsychje | waterxx: you can try smplayer, thats a little lighter then vlc | 19:43 |
| lotuspsychje | try the same 1080p | 19:44 |
| qwebirc47449 | I see that CD can be enabled, but not USB. Tried adding volume but it errored out | 19:44 |
| waterxx | ok trying youtube now on 720p audio really choppy | 19:45 |
| lotuspsychje | qwebirc47449: cdrom in this case is the same as install media | 19:45 |
| waterxx | video slight lag | 19:45 |
| waterxx | For an AMD/ATI video card you have to stick to the default open source driver. Because the closed AMD Catalyst (fglrx) drivers are not compatible with Ubuntu 16.04.x. | 19:45 |
| waterxx | i read that on this page: https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/first-lubuntu , maybe there is no hope to get it better | 19:45 |

| lotuspsychje | qwebirc47449: sudo apt update first | 19:46 |
| qwebirc47449 | ok thanks! I'll try and report back | 19:47 |
| lotuspsychje | sirriffsalothp: did you add external ppa's to your system? | 19:47 |
| sirriffsalothp | lotuspsychje: yeah? | 19:47 |
| raidghost | lotuspsychje: 16:00.0 Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2500 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 10), but it seems to be more than just a nic issue. Since the machine is NOT responding, Tried to connect hdmi to tv. But nada respondos | 19:47 |
| lotuspsychje | sirriffsalothp: we dont support them here mate, we reccomend to revert your system back to vanilla ubuntu with !ppapurge | 19:48 |
| raidghost | So, might be heat issue, pasta removed and pasta readded | 19:48 |
| sirriffsalothp | lotuspsychje: humm.. will that potentially shred my system? I'm willing to take them out just to see what's causing the problem, but only if my system as it is remains intact | 19:49 |
| lotuspsychje | sirriffsalothp: ppapurge will indeed remove your packages from the ppa | 19:49 |
| lotuspsychje | sirriffsalothp: dependencie hell is caused by adding external ppa's in many cases | 19:50 |
| sirriffsalothp | lotuspsychje: I figured as much... | 19:50 |
| sirriffsalothp | lotuspsychje: can one not disable all of the non-vanilla ones and see if that helps? | 19:50 |
| waterxx | wow the 1080 is smooth now lotuspsychje but audio still bad | 19:51 |
| lotuspsychje | sirriffsalothp: yes sure, thats the idea, to remove the non-official ppa's | 19:52 |
| lotuspsychje | sirriffsalothp: dont remove the official ubuntu repos right | 19:52 |
| sirriffsalothp | lotuspsychje: but I suppose that doesn't help if the actual ppa-packages are still present? | 19:52 |
| lotuspsychje | sirriffsalothp: they need both cleaned up, purge packages and purge ppa's | 19:53 |
| lotuspsychje | !ppapurge | sirriffsalothp | 19:53 |
| ubottu | sirriffsalothp: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 19:53 |

| Voziv | geirha: Shows docker as the group, however opening a new terminal after that causes the issue to reappear | 20:09 |
| geirha | Voziv: then I don't think you've actually rebooted since running that usermod | 20:09 |
| raidghost | lotuspsychje: Have checked dmesg and syslog | 20:09 |

| Richard_Cavell | Hello everyone. I have ubuntu 16.04 running on the metal on a desktop. I want to clone it to an external hard disk for backup purposes. (Including hidden files). What's the best tool? | 20:39 |
| leftyfb | Richard_Cavell: clonezilla | 20:49 |
| leftyfb | Richard_Cavell: you're not doing it while it's running | 20:49 |
| Xard | Richard_Cavell: for file based copy operation "rsync -avxHAX --numeric-ids --exclude=lost+found" copies only current volume files preserving hardlinks, attributes, ACLs and uses numeric ids for determining file permissions while skipping ext4 "lost+found" | 20:51 |
| Sven_vB | is it expected sudo behavior that the password remembering feature applies only inside the same terminal? | 20:51 |
| JimBuntu | Sven_vB, I would hope so! Otherwise someone could gain root simply by being logged in as you and trying a sudo command until they get access | 20:53 |
| Sven_vB | thanks. | 20:53 |
| leftyfb | Xard: that is not a clone and will not function as one at all | 20:53 |
| Richard_Cavell | leftyfb, I can't boot this device from an external USB stick (it's an old iMac with EFI that doesn't like non-OS X) so is there a way of doing the clone from within Ubuntu? | 20:53 |
| JimBuntu | Sven_vB, well, I may have jumped the gun there, I was thinking connections not really local access virtual terms | 20:54 |
| leftyfb | Richard_Cavell: negative | 20:54 |
| leftyfb | Richard_Cavell: if it's an old iMac, then it's unlikely it's running anything modern enough or even supported for you to worry about cloning elsewhere | 20:54 |
| Sven_vB | JimBuntu, in my case, terminals in screen, the terminal multiplexer. | 20:54 |
| Sven_vB | I'm using screen (the terminal multiplexer) to spawn several programs in their own window, all as root, using a quite crude hack to avoid having to type my sudo password in each screen. what would be a better way than this?: set random password for user root-voucher, extend account expiry date to today, and disable the account after a few seconds. | 20:55 |
| JimBuntu | Sven_vB, yes, multiple 'terminal' windows will all need to enter their own password to sudo | 20:56 |
| Sven_vB | oh aund using sudo on root-voucher | 20:56 |
| JimBuntu | Sven_vB, have you considered adding your user to the /etc/sudoers file so that it never requires password entry? I know, I know... but it's an option | 20:56 |
| L72g5sSq | i have two machines, host1 and host2. host1 has nfs server and host2 mounts host1 via fstab. when i reboot host2, sometimes host2 won't mount host1 and i get a permission denied error unless i reboot nfs server on host1. what's up with this? | 20:56 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: or create a sudoers file to allow running certain programs/scripts with sudo without asking for the password. Or just run the script as root | 20:57 |
| leftyfb | L72g5sSq: look at your logs | 20:57 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: may I ask what's the purpose behind all this? | 20:58 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: what programs need to run in the foreground in different screen windows all as root? | 20:58 |
| Richard_Cavell | Xard, that rsync command you gave - will it preserve hidden files/directories? | 20:59 |
| leftyfb | Richard_Cavell: yes, but it will not be a bootable clone | 20:59 |
| Xard | Richard_Cavell: it's not a clone, but file based operation which provides great flexibility but some caveats | 21:00 |
| lol123 | Hello all, I am trying to run a program with python shelve module in my Ubuntu VM | 21:00 |
| lol123 | It keeps returning this error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "app.py", line 35, in <module> db = shelve.open('example') | 21:00 |
| lol123 | '_gdbm.error: [Errno 11] Resource temporarily unavailable' | 21:00 |
| Xard | it does indeed copy all soft links, hard links and hidden files and gives you the option to do versioned backups where only changes are stored between dates | 21:00 |
| lol123 | But it runs fine on my local system | 21:00 |
| lol123 | anyone know why? | 21:00 |
| Sven_vB | leftyfb, it's an improvised dashboard for various stuff, some of which needs root currently (e.g. iotop and l2ping) but I could try drilling down on whether they have to run 1) directly in the terminal and 2) whether I can set it up with sudoers in a secure way. | 21:01 |
| Xard | however, fstab UUID mounts need to be adjusted manually | 21:01 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: maybe just run them each in the background using a script and output some stats to an actual dashboard for you to monitor? | 21:02 |
| Sven_vB | I could probably get security properties similar to the current setup by using secret random filenames and deleting the file really quick after it has been opened for reading by the display program. | 21:04 |
| Richard_Cavell | Xard, If I created that rsync backup, and then reinstalled Ubuntu on my desktop and rsynced back the other way, would it work to restore my system? | 21:04 |
| Richard_Cavell | (Note that it's really my home directory that I'm interested in) | 21:04 |
| leftyfb | that would be bad | 21:04 |
| leftyfb | Richard_Cavell: then only backup your home directory | 21:04 |
| leftyfb | and restore that, that'll be fine | 21:04 |
| Richard_Cavell | leftyfb, command please? | 21:05 |
| Sven_vB | so it sounds like there's no easy way to transfer sudo's trust from one terminal to another? | 21:05 |
| leftyfb | Richard_Cavell: rsync -av /home/$USER/ /path/to/backup/ | 21:05 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: no, that would undermine the whole thing | 21:05 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: it's not the right way to go about it anyway | 21:05 |
| Sven_vB | leftyfb, how would it undermine security if root told some sudo process that's currently asking for the password, to skip it and allow login just this time? | 21:06 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: if it's "just this time" then you can type in the the password | 21:07 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: but it's not "just this time" , that's the whole point | 21:07 |
| Sven_vB | leftyfb, yeah in my scenario I already had the password typed in to sudo the setup script. | 21:07 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: it's "just this time" times X programs, times X times you'll need to run this script | 21:08 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: it's not possible and even if it were, not recommended | 21:08 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: there's better ways to get a dashboard to monitor which is your end goal | 21:09 |
| Sven_vB | ok, I'll read more about sudoers then. | 21:09 |
| Sven_vB | yeah I'm still hoping for a lazy solution. :) | 21:09 |
| leftyfb | Sven_vB: nagios is easy to setup | 21:09 |
| leftyfb | or scripting your own, but not the way you're trying to do it | 21:10 |

| spinningcat | how about you? | 21:15 |
| insearch | I am well too :) | 21:15 |
| insearch | Don't mind me asking questions unrelated to ubuntu ? | 21:16 |
| insearch | Actually networking related.. | 21:16 |
| spinningcat | someone may know about that | 21:18 |
| nacc | insearch: if it's unrelated to ubuntu, go elsewhere | 21:18 |

| azizLIGHT | im about to update nvidia graphics, but want to backup current version first in case of problems. i cannot find the deb file in /var/cache/apt/ tho | 21:24 |
| azizLIGHT | archives/ | 21:24 |
| azizLIGHT | where do i get this deb file from then | 21:25 |
| nacc | azizLIGHT: you might need to download it manually -- not all debs are kept forever | 21:27 |
| spinningcat | ubuntu has good support for nvidia | 21:27 |
| spinningcat | debian has some problems | 21:27 |
| nacc | spinningcat: are you talking to somoene in particular? do you have a question? | 21:27 |
| spinningcat | when you install nvidia-driver, it breaks the system | 21:27 |
| nacc | spinningcat: random comments, please go to #ubuntu-offtopic. | 21:28 |
| spinningcat | it is not random | 21:28 |
| spinningcat | i just wonder ubuntu has good support for nvidia | 21:28 |
| nacc | debian is also offtopic here | 21:28 |
| azizLIGHT | see im using nvidia 384.130 from the grpahics drivers ppa | 21:28 |
| nacc | spinningcat: ok, so that's your question? | 21:28 |
| spinningcat | yes | 21:28 |
| nacc | spinningcat: sure, it does. | 21:28 |
| spinningcat | okay | 21:28 |
| spinningcat | nvidia-drivers dont break ubuntu right? | 21:28 |
| nacc | azizLIGHT: ok, you'd need to download it from the ppa -- note that ppas don't keep old packages generally | 21:28 |
| nacc | spinningcat: that's too general of a question to be given a good answer. | 21:29 |
| spinningcat | nvidia-driver breaks debian i wonder does it break ubuntu too_? | 21:29 |
| azizLIGHT | nacc: yes ive noticed this problem... i have a good version and then i update to a new version, but the new version has problems and then i cant find the old version anymore ever again | 21:29 |
| spinningcat | it is not general question i think | 21:29 |
| nacc | spinningcat: your wondering isn't very direct. You can try it and see. | 21:29 |
| nacc | azizLIGHT: i'm not sure what they recommend (they being the ppa owners). you should ask them directly | 21:30 |
| azizLIGHT | how can i run a search for nvidia*.deb files on all my hdds | 21:30 |
| azizLIGHT | maybe i have a place im storing them personally | 21:30 |
| nacc | azizLIGHT: you can do `find / -name '*.deb'` but that will churn your disks quite a bit | 21:31 |
| spinningcat | if it not in archive | 21:31 |
| spinningcat | it is not in anywhere | 21:31 |
| spinningcat | .deb you downloaded is stored there | 21:31 |
| azizLIGHT | i might have backed up debs elsewhere because im aware of ppa's not storing old debs | 21:31 |
| azizLIGHT | because ive had this issue 5-6 times already | 21:31 |
| azizLIGHT | enough to know that i should backup the old debs | 21:32 |
| azizLIGHT | yes... i did | 21:33 |
| azizLIGHT | ~/nvidia-fuckup/ | 21:33 |
| azizLIGHT | thank you nacc | 21:34 |
| nacc | azizLIGHT: yw | 21:34 |

| sadsagfjg | Hi,When i command sudo apt-get install xchat i faced The user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. How i can fix this? | 22:00 |
| nacc | sadsagfjg: talk to your system administrator | 22:00 |
| nacc | sadsagfjg: you aren't supposed to be installing packages if you do not have root privileges | 22:01 |
| sadsagfjg | nacc: I use pc | 22:01 |
| sadsagfjg | And i am system admiinstor | 22:01 |
| nacc | sadsagfjg: then you're not using ubuntu | 22:03 |
| nacc | sadsagfjg: by default in ubuntu, your user would be in sudo | 22:03 |
| sadsagfjg | And if i command apt-get install xchat in root (su) i face this error : https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4PX2DTTRz8/ | 22:03 |
| nacc | sadsagfjg: what version of ubuntu? | 22:04 |
| sadsagfjg | I dont use ubuntu | 22:04 |
| nacc | sadsagfjg: then you are in the wrong channel. | 22:04 |
| sadsagfjg | I am using debain base system | 22:04 |
| nacc | sadsagfjg: you want debian support | 22:05 |
| sadsagfjg | debian have channel? | 22:05 |
| nacc | sadsagfjg: dunno, probably, you could do some basic due diligence | 22:05 |
| genii | sadsagfjg: Their main channel is on the OFTC network, and not on Freenode | 22:05 |
| nacc | genii: thanks | 22:06 |
| sadsagfjg | genii: How i can join OFTC network? | 22:06 |
| sadsagfjg | :| | 22:06 |
| genii | That is dependent on your IRC client | 22:07 |
| sadsagfjg | :| | 22:07 |
| genii | You *may* be able to just do /server irc.oftc.net | 22:08 |

| ASMJunkie | I just wanted to come in and say thanks too all the people who tried to help me fix my lan yesterday. After about 2 more hours of trying things I just gave up and bought a USB to ethernet adapter. Works perfectly and didnt even have to install any drivers | 22:37 |
| energizer | the workflow for using a ppa is `sudo add-apt-repository ppa:owner/repo && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install program` right? | 22:38 |
| gsilvapt | Good evening everyone. Does anyone know the support channel of Canonical for issues related with the 2FA of Launchpad? | 22:39 |
| nacc | gsilvapt: that's probably #launchpad to start, but then maybe one of the canonical channels (see !alis) | 22:41 |
| nacc | energizer: generally yes, with the normal caveats about ppas | 22:41 |
| energizer | nacc: ok | 22:42 |
| gsilvapt | I found it. Thanks though, nacc | 22:44 |
