[00:09] Hi, does anyone have an explanation why nslookup host would fail, but nslookup -debug host works? I'm trying to figure out a search domain issue and nslookup itself (and everything else) can't resolve it. But nslookup -debug resolves it just fine.. which implies that to some level things are set correctly? [00:13] and nslookup is ancient i have been told to use dig now a days [00:15] kk4ewt, dig talks the dns protocol directly, doesn't apply the search in resolv.conf, so is not quite testing the same thing. === semeion is now known as mnemonic [00:39] I'm trying to get a zfs boot/root working on 16.04, and everything looks correct to me (pool is online, initrd contains zfs stuff, I can mount it fine from a livecd) but upon booting from the drive, I get dropped into the initramfs shell. any ideas why? zpool list from that shell shows the pool just fine. [00:40] the zfs mountpoint is also set to / [00:41] bparker: this helped me, and applies pretty much as is to 18.04 as well [00:41] https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Ubuntu-16.04-Root-on-ZFS [00:41] oh they did a 18.04 guide too [00:42] https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Ubuntu-18.04-Root-on-ZFS [00:46] any software recs to remove audio static? [00:46] ffmpeg seems to just have a lowpass highpass thing [00:47] which doesn't appear to be doing the job [00:47] deadghost: audacity [00:47] but it's really quite bad IMO [00:47] crashes all the time and it's really hard to use [00:47] but the filters are nice [00:47] deadghost: https://www.audacityteam.org/ [00:47] mouses: yea I've been looking at it, unfortunately it doesn't really help me debug what's going on right now though [00:47] bparker: weird, I never get a crash with it and find it very simple to use [00:48] you might not be doing much complicated work with it then [00:48] similar situation to the people that say 'gimp works fine for me' when they don't otherwise use photoshop professionally [00:48] bparker: idk, I do a lot of live DJ work and audio editing - a lot of the 'simple stuff' can be handled with it [00:48] bparker: *nods* that's fair [00:49] bparker: for more advanced stuff (hate to admit this) I have a windows box and NI software for that :( [00:49] yep [00:49] I just try to use the right tool for the job [00:49] still for 'removing static' audacity should be very easy to use for that [00:49] I mean it's a built in filter [00:49] agreed [00:49] and it works well for that in my experience [00:50] bparker: Wish I could be more help with zfs - it's still a bit of 'here there be dragons' for me [00:50] I have it working but it's hard to even remember how I pulled it off :( [00:50] well, if we look at this from a 'what do we see' perspective, and forget about zfs [00:50] we know I'm getting the initramfs shell [00:50] so all things being equal, how might I start to debug why that would happen [00:51] I don't see any other messages before it appears [00:51] bparker: that presuably means it was unable to boot / [00:51] *mount / [00:51] and running 'exit' seems less than helpful [00:51] bparker: look in syslog [00:51] nacc: this system has never booted successfully before [00:51] so there wouldn't be a log I think? [00:51] bparker: look in `dmesg` ? [00:51] I did, nothing unfortunately :/ [00:52] bparker: what nacc said - check dmesg, also I remember having serious issues with free space 'before' the /boot [00:52] bparker: I want to say it was a partitioning issue [00:52] but it's been years ;( [00:54] bparker: can you mount / now? [01:14] nacc: in the initramfs shell? if I try 'zfs mount poolname' I get 'mount /: directory is not empty' [01:14] and just 'mount /' says it's not in fstab [01:15] which, it wouldn't be [01:15] it's also not just one drive but a large array [01:21] anyone know the technician login for spectrum askey routers [01:21] which country is that? [01:24] us [01:28] Niytro: admin/admin [01:29] bparker, thats default login, sometimes there is a secondary technician login [01:29] bparker, which has more options [01:30] you didn't even give a model number or anything though [01:31] how could one possibly answer your question seriously [01:34] RAC2V1K [01:34] because i think this model is nationwide [01:34] its all there is [01:34] maybe im wrong [01:34] time warner used to use different routers but they were acquired by spectrum [01:35] askey RAC2V1K [01:35] i think is what it is [01:35] there is no option to update firmware manually so i thought there might be a technician login === Class7_ is now known as Class7 [01:36] i guess i could bridge mode it to my own router [01:37] They might know more about your router in the #openwrt channel [01:37] thx [01:40] Niytro: https://www.timewarnercable.com/content/dam/residential/pdfs/support/WirelessRouters/Final%20Askey_User%20Manual_20170612%20(1).pdf just says admin/admin and looks like it gives you access to everything [01:47] spectrum restricts it [01:48] thats okay ill just have to call emm [01:49] you don't say what it restricts [01:49] or how [01:50] firmware upgrade [01:50] i think its cause they do it [01:53] its possible its restricted over wifi [01:53] maybe I have to plug it in ethernet [01:57] mouses: nacc: I added the debug kernel cmdline param and it output a logfile in /run/initramfs, it says 'No init found. Try passing init= bootarg.' at the bottom [01:57] this filesystem was previously rsync'ed from another (running) box and I'm just trying to move it other to this new box [01:57] move it over* [02:00] apparently /lib/systemd is somehow missing a bunch of files, guess my rsync didn't really finish like it said it did [02:00] ugh === tatertots is now known as RoscoePColtrane [02:17] @kk4ewt dig just can't resolve it at all [02:18] I'm focusing on nslookup because I'm trying to understand why one works and the other doesn't.. Hoping from there I hope to figure out why it doesn't work by default [02:19] kaddi: what's the problem? [02:21] NotLim: Problem is when I connect to a VPN the two search domains get added to /etc/resolv.conf however only the first of the two is actually used. The VPN works fine on debian testing, windows, mac and as I recently found out, if I do a nslookup -debug host, nslookup will actually correctly append the search domain and find the host. When I do nslookup host, it doesn't. So I'm trying to see what the difference between how the two resovle the address is [02:22] you're testing in debian? [02:23] no, I'm on ubuntu 18.04 [02:23] I just know that it's working for a colleague on debian testing === dingir___ is now known as dingir [02:23] ok [02:23] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/khnz7wD88F/ [02:23] nslookup output [02:25] kaddi: use nslookup FQDN [02:26] RoscoePColtrane: that works obviously. I'd like to get the search domains working though [02:26] RoscoePColtrane: it's not just nslookup that is'nt working. Nothing can resolve it (except nslookup -debug apparently) [02:27] kaddi: and that's actually preventing you from production or being productive??? [02:28] RoscoePColtrane: Yes, because there's a bunch of different servers I need to contact and it's a major PITA to type name.subdomain.domain.page.com rather than name [02:28] and yes it's something I have to do daily [02:28] kaddi: or is it one of those situations where you have plenty of free time/ spare time to just ponder things? [02:28] kaddi: oh i see [02:29] I mean the easiest solution would probably be to switch to debian [02:29] but I kinda like to understand what's broken and why [02:29] already tried to switch from resolved to dnsmasq, but that didn't fix the issu [02:30] the search domains are listed in /etc/resolv.conf [02:30] so I'm not sure where they aren't listed but should be [02:30] no i wouldn't expect a switch from resolved to dnsmasq to net different results [02:31] well I was working under the assumptoin that it's a bug in resolved, since everyone online is bitching about how nothing works as it should with resolved [02:31] but obviously that's not it [02:32] a bug?...hmmm dns resolution works perfectly as it should for myself and many others i'm sure [02:33] resolved changed how search domains are appended (if I understood this correctly) to avoid spilling the internal infrastructure to public dns servers and there's many cases where especially search domains just didn't work at all and eveyrthing needed to be used in FQDN [02:33] maybe something with each problem reporting users network infrastructure and or configuration [02:34] maybe you have avahi installed...it can have odd effects on certain network topology scenarios in regard to dns [02:34] guess it's not a bug per se.. it's a feature that's upsetting many VPN users.. even though I can understand the end-goal [02:35] is there an easy way to disable that to test it? [02:35] you probably got avahi installed as it's installed by default [02:35] yeah, I'm fairly sure I've seen it in the running processes here and there [02:35] and like i mentioned avahi can have odd effects on dns name resolutioin [02:35] resolution [02:36] is sudo systemctl disable avahi-daemon sufficient to disable it? [02:36] disable it? maybe...i just remove it...because for my environment it's does more harm than it could ever possibly be of any use [02:37] haha, I'm reluctant to remove entirely without knowing what it does.. disabling should be fine since I can always reenable it :p [02:37] how did you remove it? [02:37] i uninstalled it [02:38] sudo apt-get remove avahi? [02:38] i could simply "reinstall" it if i ever needed it...which i won't ever need it [02:38] replace "remove" with "purge" [02:38] is anybody else using Gigamonster for their ISP? [02:38] ok, will try that [02:38] bbiab [02:40] mouses: nacc: actually, missing files wasn't really my problem... this was: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/grub/issues/25 === capella|away is now known as capella === mnemonic is now known as Guest89011 === semeion is now known as mnemonic [02:44] bparker: Ahh!

[04:28] its a snap [04:28] right [04:29] neurot: yes it is. any solytion to override this issue, so that default icon will change according the system's icon pack chosen from user [04:29] ? [04:30] I don't think snap icons can change with an icon theme set but I could be wrong that's just my thought [04:30] Just blame it on Microsoft because they won't allow it and its proprietary hahaha [04:32] ilias_gr Snap packages are packaged up different I have no idea [04:32] neurot: i saw that in notification area the name is 'skypeforlinux'. if an icon from an icon theme will renamed to 'skypeforlinux' under /status the icon change only in notification area appearance but it doesn't the icon in systray itself. that's strange too. any idea?

[12:56] hi , I need a bit help installing ubuntu 18.04 SSD.Should I partition a swap on it ? When reading the guide , swap size is suppose to double my RAM.Having 16GB of ram which mean I need to reserve 32GB on my 120GB SSD ? [12:57] Can I reduce the swap size ? [12:59] you can skip swap [12:59] with 16 gb of ram it's kind of useless [12:59] you don't want swap anyway [12:59] nbusrone, that swap rule shouldn't apply to a 16GB Ram system ...yes keep your swap about 8GB if you think it's needed [13:01] BluesKaj : thanks , so what is the best partition you suggest for an 120GB ssd ? [13:02] nbusrone: It should be noted that 18.04 doesn't need a dedicated swap partition. In 18.04, Ubuntu will create a swap file if no swap partition is defined. It will automatically allocate a reasonable size to the swap file for you. [13:02] nbusrone, best? depends how you want to set them up [13:12] pa, for a simple install, create a dos partition table instead of gpt, and legacy mode in the bios,.That's if you don't need any more than 4 promary partiitons [13:12] primary rather [13:13] I see in 18.04 LTS unattended security upgrades are enabled by default, and the unattended-upgrade manpage suggests it is to be run via /etc/cron.daily/apt, but that file does not exist. Anyone know if I need to create it or if it is already configured elsewhere by default? [13:13] BluesKaj: but i'm not sure what's wrong. This drive was booting before the system crashed and somehow got corrupted.. [13:14] berkley: Did you enable the option during install? [13:15] pragmaticenigma BluesKaj : How does 10.04 allocate swap ? and ho do I check whether it 18.04 use swap ? [13:15] pa in gpt you need to install grub to /uefi/boot afaik ..in ubuntu the the auto install is supposed to do that for you [13:15] pragmaticenigma: I installed via preseed, but I guess I should look there. I'm ordinarily a redhat guy [13:16] ha [13:16] BluesKaj: so now i try to recover with a live 16.04 [13:16] now i was trying to recover with a non-live 14.04 [13:16] berkley: I'm not familiar with preseeding ... I would think there might be an issue with the way the preseed was configured though [13:17] ubuntu we have a problem :) [13:17] nbusrone: Your question doesn't make any sense... Ubuntu 10.04 is long past it's support and documentation is no longer available for it. [13:18] pragmaticenigma: The only line which references it is this: "d-i pkgsel/update-policy select unattended-upgrades". I guess I need to RTFM now :P. Thanks for your help [13:18] ecormier: Is there an Ubuntu support question we can help you with? [13:18] pragmaticenigma BluesKaj : ops sorry ,I mean 18.04 [13:18] libreoffice calc: when I use the sum function, updates to the refered cells DO NOT update the summed cell [13:18] berkley: Please mind language and acronyms [13:18] my apologies [13:18] this is a new issue since the last oo update [13:18] known bug? [13:18] berkley: If this is your first attempt at using Ubuntu, I'd recommend installing from the regular images... See how things are configured by default there... then use that to build your preseed [13:19] ecormier: Have you tabbed out of the cell after making the change? [13:19] also in writer: opening a 2 page .doc with 2 tables, one on each page displays one page with the two tables superimposed [13:19] pragmaticenigma: yes [13:20] ecormier: not experiencing any issue with LibreCalc and not updating a cell populated with SUM() [13:21] pragmaticenigma: look at my bottom row: http://pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=ac358f6dff4b28b8a3f8f34d6f33f0ec [13:21] hehe, should have fuzzed those names anyways [13:22] ecormier: Without knowing what you placed in those cells... the image doesn't tell me anything [13:22] ecormier: and yes, you should have fuzzed both the names and the Student IDs [13:22] those are '1's in each cell, last cell is =SUM(C15:AL15) [13:23] pragmaticenigma: all publicly available anyways :) [13:23] I'll try a reboot, but that's not good behavior [13:24] ecormier: You might want to make sure the field types are numbers as well. beyond that... I'd try a fresh spreadsheet and see if you can replicate the issue there... If you can, file a bug report [13:24] !bug [13:24] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [13:25] apparently, saving, closing a reopening starts the cell updates and now it works... but still a bug... let me test a little more [13:25] pragmaticenigma BluesKaj : anyhow , that for the advice.Do I need to do some command for SSD installing 18.04.Read some need to type a command for trim but it's enable on 18.04 ? [13:25] reboot first [13:26] nbusrone: fstrim runs weekly by default on supported file systems on 18.04 [13:27] nbusrone: you may need to enable it on underlying layers if any. [13:27] nbusrone: As long as you use official installation sources for Ubuntu, those are not necessary. Something to note, whatever you are reading, check for a publication date, if it is older than 2 years... find something else. If it doesn't have a date, consider it to be garbage and find another source [13:29] nbusrone: i.e. if you use, for example, full disk encryption, trim passthrough may not be anbled by default [13:32] cell update issue seems to be gone, writer/table overlay issue still present... I'll look into that when I have more time [13:34] pragmaticenigma tomreyn : regular user , not using any disk encryption .Yeh , I checked , but it's a long read of understanding all the SSD stuff in it.I bit more technical term for me https://wiki.debian.org/SSDOptimization [13:34] nbusrone: First issue, that's for Debian, not Ubuntu [13:37] pragmaticenigma : is it the same distro ? [13:37] nbusrone: not even close [13:38] nbusrone: Ubuntu started with debian as a base, years ago. From there it has gone in a completely different direction. [13:38] !debian [13:38] Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See https://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu/ubuntu-and-debian - !Repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! [13:38] pragmaticenigma : Thanks , i had a hard time reading and understanding them :(. === Class7_ is now known as Class7 [13:51] -- [13:54] hi, I need a bit of help. I did echo "foo" > /etc/hostname and then I did hostnamectl set-hostname foo [13:54] then I rebooted [13:54] and I still have the previous hostname [13:54] and /etc/hostname has been changed back [13:54] how can I change my hostname please? [13:56] !hostname | guardian [13:56] guardian: Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hosts to include BOTH the old and new hostname and then change /etc/hostname to the new one. WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. [13:56] I am using LXD, I have ubuntu 18.04 as a container image and I am trying to add 80 and 443 into the allowed ufw ports but i am getting this error: https://hastebin.com/etukatuvec.rb [13:56] why? [13:58] guardian, so change it in /etc/hosts as well [13:58] there's no mention of the old hostname in /etc/hosts [13:59] guardian, yes, but add the new hostname there anyway [13:59] systemd's a joke right :( [14:01] Has anyone done an accurate export from Scribus to LibreOffice Writer (e.g. for a letterhead design -> writer template) ? [14:03] it seems it's cloud-init that changes the hostname back [14:03] cloud-init's a thing I don't need but is there === Rumbles_ is now known as Rumbles [14:06] guardian, should look somehtning like "127.0.1.1 Hostname" in /etc/hosts [14:11] guardian, are you sure you don't need cloud-init? is this a production machine ? [14:13] it's there when you install ubuntu server [14:17] best to ask in #ubuntu-server chat about that, guardian [14:17]
