[00:13] Mixxit: 16.10 is eol, no point in installing that [00:13] im about to try 18.04.1 [00:14] but im pretty sure the doc https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/advanced-installation.html.en-GB#software-raid [00:14] has not been updated to match 18s new install ui [00:14] so right now i cant install with raid on two disks [00:18] great [00:18] Mixxit: here's the old installer - http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/18.04/release/ [00:19] now my screen is just garbled [00:19] thats the one ive justed booted ducasse [00:21] https://imgur.com/a/9N7i65l [00:21] nomodeset does the same btw [00:23] hey all, looking for some help to NAT my ens160 (LAN) traffic through my tun0 interface (SSH). I've done the following https://8n1.org/14114/5bd1, but when I point a machine at this 'tunneler' system to use as a gateway i dont see any traffic going into tun0 when checking via tcpdump / tshark [00:23] i can ping between my two tun0 interfaces though [00:24] 192.168.99.100 → 192.168.99.200 ICMP 84 Echo (ping) reply [00:26] aidrocsid, i don't know about something ready for that, though i once intercepted mouse and keyboard to zoom in the ui when a specific keyboard mouse was used, you maybe could use it to not forward mouse events to the other screen. not sure about the details though anymore, it was some time ago [00:28] or maybe this still works? https://superuser.com/a/177487/505754 [00:30] vga=640 got around the issue so far for me [00:30] attempting install now === [1]MrMobius is now known as MrMobius [00:33] Hello, I have my battery icon indicator oscilating constantly from charging/not charging.

[01:42] I already have a replacement, same size, slightly different type. [01:43] Is transferring everything over as simple as just copying the old drive over to the new, and physically replacing the old with the new, or will there be other steps? [01:44] anyone? [01:44] OneM_Industries, boot into a live image and dd old one to the new one [01:44] That's it? No fiddling with UUIDs etc? [01:45] thats is [01:45] Nice.

[01:46] CoolerZ, which makes no sense [01:46] i know right? [01:46] why is it changing to -r-xr-xr-x ? [01:46] what file is it [01:47] its a .pem key file [01:47] no you changing to 400 makes no sense [01:47] thats whats required by ssh [01:47] I'm running ubuntu 18.10 and have noticed minimized applications don't show up on the sidebar [01:47] no idea where you are getting that from [01:47] it used to work in 18.04 [01:48] also, the sidebar is visible in the login screen [01:48] anyway its always worked on other ubuntu oses [01:48] I suspect something is borked [01:48] i don't know why its not working now [01:48] hmm thats weird [01:49] chmod 700 sets all the permissions ons [01:49] did something change with the chmod command? [01:50] no 700 set rwx--- --- [01:50] kk4ewt, well its not doing that [01:50] its setting it to rwxrwxrwx [01:50] 400 would be -w- --- --- [01:50] kk4ewt, no 400 is read only [01:50] by owner [01:51] yes which since your key is in your home folder should be 600 [01:52] jups [01:52] -rw-------. 1 jbwillia jbwillia 1.8K Aug 28 2015 id_rsa [01:52] oh i found it https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues/81 [01:52] some wsl bs [01:53] kk4ewt, why 600? its not supposed to be written to [01:53] also its not in my home folder [01:58] Hello [01:58] I want to install apache + PHP on a local directory that I can later remove, how can I do this? [02:01] I'm beginning to use software that isn't packeged as a .deb. Mostly, I git clone https://github... into a ~/gits folder and then make install etc., but this doesn't record the source URL or allow easy updates. What's a better way? [02:01] for easy removal a lot of trouble, easiest way is moving your documentroot https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-move-an-apache-web-root-to-a-new-location-on-ubuntu-16-04 [02:02] alazy, a better way would be searching for a PPA that gives debs and updates [02:03] or snap packages [02:11] OerHeks: Sure, but this is specifically for when there *isn't* a PPA or deb or snap - there's nothing available but a github or gitlab URL. I'm surprised if there isn't a tool to track github repos and download them all. === daniel is now known as Guest45436 === patr0clus is now known as s3nd1v0g1us === hyperlum1 is now known as hyperlumic === daniel is now known as Guest94005 [04:30] it seems like if I ask for a channel list the program crashes :-/ [04:31] gofio: freenode has a very large list, better search channels with !alis [04:34] thanks lotuspsychje :-) That was my guess, but thanks for verification [04:35] wonder if there's anybody else with ubuntu 17.10 here... [04:35] gofio: 17.10 is end of life [04:35] gofio: we advice to install a supported version (from the topic) [04:37] yeap, thanks again. It has been my first attempt into linux and did not know was the worst choice I could make :-D [04:38] gofio: what do you mean? [04:40] I also made a partition over windows 7 without license from the ubuntu instalation pendrive...(also not recomended). But oh well, before I format the entire hard disk and start from scratch and install the 14.04 version I'm lookin how far can it go now I'm already into it [04:40] I mean I did not know version 17.10 was what it is [04:42] this channel looks very promising :-) [04:42] Hey all. Is there a way to make all windows show on the taskbar vertical panel (what is it called?) on wayland? [04:42] it's really frustrating when you have multiple windows of the same application and you can't find where it is because the thumbnail it shows is too small to differentiate [04:43] really time consuming [04:44] Dock, that's what the bar is called! [04:45] I don't want windows of the same application to be collapsed into one single icon [04:45] doesn't have that icon like multiple dots:? one dot per window [04:46] yes, I don't want that behavior. I would rather have two separate icons so it's easier to get one window of the other [04:46] the question is how [04:46] Wixy: look into dconf-editor [04:46] Wixy: there are some dock behaviour settings you can adjust there === caravena_ is now known as caravena [04:47] I'm using version 17.10 but when I point to the icon it pops the windows I have open, dunno [04:47] gofio: dont give advice from an eol version please [04:48] did i give advice lotuspsychje ? [04:49] I can select any of the grouped windows from the dock icon, but it's time consuming. I always select the wrong window since it's hard to differentiate them depending on the application [04:49] gofio: we dont support end of life versions here, so sharing your experience isnt usefull neither from 17.10 [04:49] I've wasted so much time that way I just want windows to be ungrouped [04:49] same for the task switcher, windows are grouped. I don't want that [04:49] Wixy: look into dconf-editor [04:49] yep, I'm installing it [04:50] is there a channel where 17.10 can be discussed lotuspsychje :? [04:50] Wixy: then search for dash-to-dock and click action [04:50] !discuss | gofio sure [04:50] gofio sure: Want to talk about Ubuntu, but don't have a support question? /join #ubuntu-discuss for non-support Ubuntu discussion, or try #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat. Thanks! [04:51] thanks ubottu [04:51] gotta love those bots [04:53] lotuspsychje, I don't think any of the alternatives help [04:54] skip, minimize, launch, cycle-windows, minimize-or-overview, previews (that's the default) or quit [04:54] Wixy: did you try cycle windows? [04:54] yes [04:55] it's even worse than before. if you have 5 windows you need to click 5 times to get the correct one in worst case scenario [04:56] Wixy: there's also alt+TAB to switch stuff [04:56] and 2-3 times in avg scenario [04:56] yeah, I know, and that is also grouped by application -.- [04:56] exact same problem [04:57] Wixy: yeah it isnt exactly unity style but.. [04:57] maybe I should change desktop env? [04:57] Wixy: unity can still be installed if you like [04:57] unity does the same doesn't it? [04:59] Wixy: think unity uses better overview on right mouse click on the icon [05:00] Wixy: also the gnome 'activities' button shows all your open windows [05:02] that's all suboptimal if windows changes positions and the content is not clear only looking at the preview. for IDEs for instance I have a hard time when more than one window is open [05:02] I'll try dash-to-panel, based on this answer https://askubuntu.com/questions/1081658/disable-window-grouping-in-dock-on-ubuntu-17-10-18-04 [05:03] Wixy: to work organized i use all 4 workspaces [05:17] Wixy: if you open 4 terminals on 1 workspace, you can do alot of work already right [05:18] Wixy: then clicking the terminal icon, transfers you to the right workspace [05:31] oh really? dast-to-panel is better than docks, for me at least. but it lacks some configs docks has :( [05:31] I think I'm changing desktop environment... [05:32] Wixy: there is also docky if you like [05:32] let me see [05:32] Wixy: been playing with it in the past [05:33] the main issue with dash-to-panel is I couldn't find how to remove the title from the icons, so they're no icons but large... buttons with text [05:33] and that it doesn't appear on both monitors, only one monitor is supported [05:34] dash-to-dock support not having titles and dual monitor [05:34] but not ungroup windows [05:34] come on! [05:34] Wixy: perhaps you can create a bug wishlist? [05:34] Wixy: seems like something usefull to add as feature [05:35] I'll be changing env before that bug wishlist is addressed, but yeah I would probably :P [05:35] Wixy: you create and ill add affected too [05:35] do you know anything like what I'm looking for? [05:35] probably on kde? [05:36] Wixy: maybe there are some tiling packages that could do the trick, but never really used those [05:36] ungrouped windows, only icons and dual monitor seems to be the 3 key features I'm looking for [05:36] hmm [05:36] only icons is not a must-have actually, ungrouped windows and dual monitor are [05:37] I'm trying docky now [05:39] definitely not docky, it fails at both must-have features [05:40] Wixy: havent used it in a while === rud0lf is now known as rudolph === rudolph is now known as rud0lf [06:13] lotuspsychje, ok, I couldn't make it work, I'm back to dash to dock... now configuring workspaces. is there a way to isolate windows into workspaces? [06:13] alt+tab on one workspace shows all windows in all workspaces [06:13] Wixy: dont think there's a hack for that [06:14] so what's the point of having workspaces? [06:15] Wixy: with gnome-tweak-tool you can define workspaces on main screen, or alls creens [06:15] well, there's a point of course, but... [06:15] Wixy: if you use 4 workspaces, and keep programs divided on same workspace, you can work organized [06:15] also on docks I see windows from all workspaces [06:16] gosh, I've been using Linux for +15 years now but these moderns desktop environments are so annoying! [06:17] Wixy: i also use super+page down switching workspaces [06:17] easy enough to set it to a single desktop window ... [06:17] cfhowlett, what do you mean? [06:18] if you prefer, you can have a single workspace rather than multiples [06:18] Wixy: 4 terminals workspace1 4 firefox workspace2 etc [06:18] cfhowlett: he's looking to ungroup his windows [06:18] actually that's all I wanted ^ [06:18] d'oh! [06:18] !me goes back to mode [06:18] cfhowlett: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [06:19] cfhowlett: and im out of ideas [06:19] but it's impossible in dash-to-docks, so I switched to dash-to-panels, but it'll only appear in one window, then docky, but it sucks... where is the normal stuff? :P [06:19] Wixy: create the wishlist bug :p [06:20] i'm using 18.04 and i have a lot of [UFW BLOCK] spam in dmesg [06:20] i am not concerned at all about brute-force attacks [06:20] what's the right way to disable this functionality in ufw? [06:21] slingamn, you mean kill ufw altogether? [06:21] er, sorry, i just want to disable everything related to rate limiting [06:21] but keep the basic allow/deny rules [06:21] oh, hmm [06:21] these are all [UFW BLOCK], not [UFW LIMIT BLOCK] [06:22] I'm done, I'm installing kde and/or xfce. gnome totally missed the point imho -.- [06:23] so i guess i just want to suppress all of this logging...should i just delete those lines from /etc/ufw/user.rules ? [06:25] slingamn: perhaps the #netfilter channel know [06:25] yeah, could be [06:27] i commented out the lines that appeared to be logging-related and did a `systemctl restart ufw.service`, the firewall rules are still in effect [06:27] so that's probably fine === Class7_ is now known as Class7 [07:26] lotuspsychje, still around? [07:27] yes [07:28] Hello lotuspsychje [07:28] I'm back just to say KDE was the answer to my current and future problems. seriously, it's much more better. it supports dual monitor, ungrouping (application based, which is much better), windows are isolated by workspace, etc [07:29] Wixy: glad you sorted it!

[09:30] peanutbutter144: what is the theme you selcted? [09:31] lotuspsychje: https://i.imgur.com/q8D8ZOk.png [09:33] peanutbutter144: yes, that should be the theme for bionic [09:33] lotuspsychje: it still doesn't look the same [09:34] peanutbutter144: have you tryed enabling other themes as a test? see if it influences [09:37] lotuspsychje: there is only one shell theme available, it's called "Default" [09:37] i think that's what changes what the dock and top bar look like [09:41] peanutbutter144: that might be baked in 18.10 [09:41] lotuspsychje: here's a screenshot of the system menu thing, you can see it still uses the yaru theme because of the blue sliders https://imgur.com/NFeA08S [09:42] is there really no way to change it back? [09:42] the new theme is just too flat for me, i don't want to have to use outdated software so that i can have the full ambiance theme...

[09:52] peanutbutter144: i would consider a bug, mentioning you cant revert to proper ambiance even with light-themes installed [09:52] peanutbutter144: themes sometimes evolve and change between releases, the old look might no longer be available [09:53] ducasse: i understand, but the old shell theme must be available from somewhere, right? [09:53] even if it's unofficial [09:54] why must it? [09:54] well i assume it's available on the ubuntu bionic repositories [09:54] maybe i could download a .deb from there and install it manually? [09:54] yes, but that is not guaranteed to work on cosmic [09:55] peanutbutter144: mixing package versions across different ubuntu versions isnt a great idea neither [09:55] lotuspsychje: yeah but it's only a theme, not a critical system component [09:56] peanutbutter144: the default theme on bionic is ambiance, wich is in light-themes [09:56] peanutbutter144: as ducasse says, new ubuntu versions bake new styles in [09:58] lotuspsychje: ok, i guess i'll just have to live with the new theme [09:58] peanutbutter144: you dont have other DE's installed that could interfere? [09:58] no, i only use the default desktop [09:58] kk [09:58] are there any other shell themes that have a similar style to ambiance that i could install? [09:59] peanutbutter144: you could try to get the theme from bionic, but it's not something we support [09:59] peanutbutter144: if nobody files a bug, next release might have same issue still [09:59] peanutbutter144: if you like to see a feature next release, consider a wishlist bug? [10:00] lotuspsychje: that might be a good idea [10:00] how do i file a wishlist bug?

I want to run a python script during boot and from googling / stack overflow I see a couple different ways to do that: create service in /etc/init.d/, adding line to /etc/rc.local, adding it to the crontab with "@reboot". What would be the recommended way in my case? [10:31] (it is a ubuntu server, no gui) [10:50] Moeh: If I just wanted to run it without any supervision I’d add a "@reboot" crontab. [10:50] I'm having some charging/performance issues on my ubuntu. The battery indicator keeps alternating between charging/not charging and my CPU keeps getting throttled. Thinkpad 440p, Ubuntu 18.10. Any ideas? [10:54] hello apparently I messed up my boot partition :(... I have to remove ubuntu for now. if I install windows boot loader I only get an "Boot Agent" until I reinstall grub with boot repair. my problem now is I have 2 windows partitions showing up in grub in sda1 and sda5?? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/S6MF86QVjV/ how do I fix my boot record restore windows for now? [10:55] vlt: thx! I also want to make sure that it is always running, so my idea is that I add two entries, one with "@reboot" and one which uses flock to attempt to re-run it every minute (and does nothing if it is already running). Does that make sense? [10:56] Kali_Yuga, if you want to fix just windows bring it to ##windows [10:57] MadLamb: did you check if your bios is up to date? [10:57] lotuspsychje, no [10:58] MadLamb: on those thinkpads we have a lot of users with acpi issues [10:58] MadLamb: did you notice the same issues on LTS?
