[00:01] hi, where do I get libncurses++.so on ubuntu? [00:02] medfly: try apt-cache search ncurses [00:02] I have a lot of the ncurses packages [00:02] medfly: ... and search for appropriate libs [00:02] !find libncurses++.so [00:02] Found: W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W: (and 373 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libncurses%2B%2B.so&searchon=names&suite=bionic§ion=all [00:02] !help [00:02] 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 [00:02] !patience [00:02] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ [00:06] hello [00:06] i have trouble enabling the xen hypervisor on ubuntu 18.04 with secure boot enabled [00:07] booting the os itself seems find [00:07] s/find/fine/ [00:08] when i installed grub-xen(or related) some options related to xen have been added to the boot menu [00:09] but when trying to boot those options, i'm directed back to the boot menu [00:09] without actually booting the xen kernel [00:09] so what's the problem? [00:10] booting xen means booting another OS that your dom0 manages to live alongside, guess they didn't get that signed [00:10] it's quite a mutation [00:11] medfly: yes, quite weird then [00:11] medfly: you mean that they didn't get the xen kernel signed? [00:11] medfly: that's likely [00:12] a-l-r: That particular configuration does not appear to be supported at this time. Xen itself can provide en EFI environment for the instances it hosts, but the currently provided packages in ubuntu do not include support for Xen to operate on a system with secure boot enabled. [00:12] pragmaticenigma: th [00:12] pragmaticenigma: thx [00:13] pragmaticenigma: got it, it's unsupported [00:15] hi,does anyone know how to specify a custom keymap in an aptitude config file? I have put the following in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/mykeymap: [00:15] Aptitude::UI::Keybindings "CyclePrev" "C-h"; [00:15] but it doesn't work [00:15] C-h just opens help [00:18] so if i enabled secure boot, won't dkms work? [00:19] actually MOKManager can enroll something like custom keys, so dkms kernel modules that is custom built can be verified [00:19] figured out my problem, it's a thing failing to build, its not expecting the system to have it [00:19] however, virtualbox won't work either [00:23] Hello [00:24] Anyone can help with AppArmor? [00:26] nightowl1: what's your actual question? If someone knows the answer, they'll respond :) [00:27] I have ESET , which is being denied by AppArmor [00:27] I just can't configure it right [00:27] There is a command where you would choose to Monitor things by AppArmor and then you Allow them, but still ESET is denied [00:28] Why do I use ESET , It's because I send files to Windows Machines so sometimes I need to scan before I do [00:28] 01/16/2019 01:37:33 AM Preload library access control Cannot connect to /tmp/esets.sock: Permission denied [00:28] nightowl1: unfortunately, I don't believe ESET is supported here. There are AVs for Windows viruses that are, however, like clamav [00:29] nightowl1: otherwise, you may need to check with the ESET devs themselves [00:29] Their suggestion was to disable AppArmor which sounds weird. [00:29] ClamAV unfortunately do have a low detection rate [00:30] nightowl1: that hasn't been my experience. Do you have anything that has hard numbers to support that? [00:31] What do you mean SlidingHorn ? [00:31] nightowl1: you said that clamav has a low detection rate...I'm wondering where you got that information [00:32] It lacks behind companies like Kaspersky and ESET [00:32] [citation needed] [00:32] not by much [00:32] I don't have the websites where did I read that information but I did read it [00:32] Could be [00:32] I am not 100% sure [00:35] Either way, I'd probably stick with an AV that is open source (ESET is proprietary), that doesn't recommend disabling APPARMOR (like ESET apparently does), is free as in beer (ESET isn't), and whose site doesn't have XSS attempts. [00:39] I see , thanks SlidingHorn , I will give ClamAV a test [00:40] nightowl1: just one thing to note: ClamAV isn't a real-time AV - scans are run on a schedule or done manually. Just FYI [00:41] Ok as on demand scanner and not real time [00:41] What abot the XSS attempts? [00:42] My dell 7490 laptop has a usbC dock with one displayport and one hdmi output. In Windows I can use two external monitors in this setup. So far in linux I have only gotten one at a time (either one!) to work. When I have both plugged in, one doesn't even show up on `xrandr --listmonitors`. What are my next troubleshooting steps? [00:42] nightowl1, what is your end goal [00:42] nightowl1: the ESET website had multiple Cross Site Scripting attempts which can be used as injection attacks on a browser/web application [00:42] oops I understand [00:43] in xrandr the internal display is eDP-1 and the external displays are DP-1-1 and DP-1-2 [00:43] kk4ewt, I wanted to fix ESET , now I will try ClamAV [00:43] what is your reason for needing either [00:44] Scanning files before sending them to Windows machines because they might be infected or something [00:44] More like double checking [00:44] then clamav is fine for that [00:44] Will try it , thanks. [00:44] you are running a samba share so set clamav to run every 30 minutes [00:45] sparr: It could be an ACPI issue; We've had a couple of instances of the firmware not enabling GPU outputs when running Linux. [00:47] could that be the case while each output works alone? [00:49] Hello everyone [00:50] does anyone use Ardour (DAW) here? [00:50] apparently libjack is a dependency of ardour, but ardour seems to be compiled without jack support :O [00:51] i have pulseaudio running as a jack client (very nice setup to use both at once) and ardour won't even run in "alsa-over-pulse" mode :/ [00:51] with alsa it needs direct control of its audio interface [00:53] sparr: Unless you can show some log messages with clues we can only take wild guesses [00:53] Ok, I have a stupid question. [00:54] delt: Yes, that is correct. You can also have Ardour use jack [00:54] OneM_Industries: those aren't allowed here. NEXT! :P [00:55] TJ-: that's what im trying to figure out how :) [00:55] I have a system running 14.04 (Yes it's outdated), and I stuck a drive from a windows 10 machine into it to alter some partition sizes to be able to install ubuntu as a dual boot. Gparted is showing the entire disk as unallocated. [00:55] TJ-: someone in #ardour just mentioned that the ardour package in ubuntu repos might be outdated vs. the ones on ardour.org...? [00:56] OneM_Industries, possible the old gparted doesn't know about GPT [00:57] rfm: It also gave this error, so it's possible. https://pastebin.com/aTbNuLyp [00:58] OneM_Industries: 14.04 gparted knows about gpt [00:58] (I just got this laptop, so I have no clue. [00:58] ) [00:58] EriC^^: Ah, ok. [00:58] OneM_Industries: what does sudo parted -ls show? [00:58] usually the disk shows empty if its msdos with residue of gpt there, gpt stray data [00:59] sudo fixparts /dev/sdb should fix that [00:59] delt: Indeed, I installed from a PPA or built it myself. I use it for recordings for a Blind Society and its' really good. I can hop over a VPN and check if you'd like [00:59] https://pastebin.com/62YvX1Av [00:59] TJ-: they have a PPA on ardour.org? [00:59] OneM_Industries: is sda the disk in question or sdb? [00:59] * delt checking... [00:59] sdb [01:00] OneM_Industries: oh ok, it's empty right? [01:00] Nope. [01:00] Windows 10 install. [01:00] oh [01:00] (Not my choice, but I need it for a few programs.) [01:00] that's alright.. [01:00] (Thus why I would like to install ubuntu alongside it.) [01:01] OneM_Industries: what does "sudo gdisk -l /dev/sdb" show? [01:01] TJ-: from syslog https://gist.github.com/sparr/f8822c741f897569549442ff002f0860 [01:01] not sure what other logs might be useful [01:01] is it off of a uefi machine OneM_Industries ? [01:01] https://pastebin.com/PGxe1hpv [01:01] unfortunately the two monitors are identical, so it's somewhat difficult to tell the difference between them by resolution/size/etc [01:02] EriC^^: Let me find out... [01:02] OneM_Industries: seems it has mbr and gpt signatures [01:02] (Thinkpad 540p, if that helps.) [01:02] OneM_Industries: try choosing to list using MBR, i think it doesnt write anything it just lists the partitions found there [01:02] Yes, uefi. [01:03] oh, cause windows needs gpt for uefi if you were using that mode [01:03] https://pastebin.com/SXfd3c4n [01:03] Selected MBR. [01:03] OneM_Industries: try listing both partitions, if there's an efi partition it'd be a little clearer on what it's using [01:03] Ok. [01:03] aha [01:04] what about gpt? [01:04] Shows the disk as empty. [01:04] So, guessing that it's MBR. ;P [01:05] aha yeah i think so [01:05] Hunh. [01:05] the mbr partitions seem right, no efi partition, try mounting /dev/sdb2 perhaps [01:05] or just run sudo fixparts /dev/sdb and zap the stray gpt [01:06] OneM_Industries: if it cant find the partition, you could do "sudo mount -o offset=$((1126400 * 512)) /mnt" [01:06] Oh, there's part of it. Windows 10's hibernate when told to shut down feature again... [01:06] delt: I cannot recall if it was PPA or self-built now! And Sod's Law - I'm on kernel 5.0-rc2 right now and the VPN module isn't built! [01:06] aha mount -o ro,offset should let you mount it [01:08] TJ-: haha :D thanks anyway kind sir! i'm dl'ing the binary from ardour.org, getting a $1 / month subscription [01:10] EriC^^: Brilliant! Gparted can now see the partitions. [01:10] OneM_Industries: great [01:14] delt: I use it with a Delta 1010 I/O and UC-33e controller - really nice [01:16] TJ-: m-audio oxygen 88 here, and tons of guitars and guitar related stuff :D [01:24] delt: just got the VPN sorted; we're using the version in the Ubuntu 18.04 archive without problems [01:25] Hey, everyone, I'm trying to run a django command through cron but (think) I am encountering issues with my environment. If I `printenv` and output to a file, I see many fewer variables than if I run printenv from the shell. So I've tried adding `PATH=$HOME/.profile` to my script but see the same error which is that there's an error reading `/home/app/.env` from environ.py. [01:26] trying to do `xrandr --output DP-1-2 --mode 2560x1440` errors out with "xrandr: Configure crtc 2 failed" [01:27] mcaesa: not to say you won't possibly get an answer here, but I'd recommend asking in ##python, as it's more their specialty [01:27] I will ask there. Thank you. [01:28] sparr: are you using debian or ubuntu? Please stick to the channel for whichever distro you're using [01:29] Is there any tool that supports to repartition/shrink the size of the "ISO partition" once a hybrid ISO has been written to a USB stick? [01:29] Would like a separate partition following the written ISO, but not sure if it's possible. [01:30] ddybing: i guess you could modify the mbr etc so that it encompasses the whole disk and then create a partition after the iso's 2nd partition [01:30] ddybing: shrinking would be problematic since you'd need to recalc/rewrite some of the ISO9660 file-system metadata. For hybrid images though, you can tack more partitions on via the MBR and/or GPT that are embedded [01:31] SlidingHorn: feel free to coninue not helping me just as much as you were already not helping previously, and I will stick to distro-specific channels when I encounter a distro-specific problem. [01:34] sparr: I'll be willing to help when I find out which distro you're actually using. If you're using Debian, it's not supported here, and rude to cross post. Vice versa if you're using Ubuntu and asking in Debian's channel [01:35] I see, thanks TJ and EriC. Would there be a way to specify the size of the target without creating a partition? Thinking maybe dd-ing the exact size of the ISO to a specified block of the same size on the target device. [01:35] Your attitude makes me doubt your ability or willingness to help. I suspect you just have a copy paste rant prepared every time you see someone ask something in both channels (I also asked in #linux eventually). [01:36] I'll "cross post" in another channel after waiting about another hour, and no that is not rude at all. [01:36] Can't you have this fight elsewhere? [01:36] ddybing: if only [01:38] ddybing: it shouldnt write anything more than the iso's size if you dont specify anything [01:38] remember to use sync after dd or conv=fsync [01:39] TJ-: with jack? [01:40] delt: Yes, although later we switched to ALSA since it is easier to configure :) [01:40] TJ-: here ubuntu (mint 19.1) version info: Ardour5.12.0 (built using 1:5.12.0-3 and GCC version 7.3.0) [01:40] TJ-: can't use jack with this version [01:40] hi folks, i have got a problem with vlan using ifupdown in 18.04 lts. [01:41] delt: ardour/bionic,now 1:5.12.0-3 amd64 [installed] [01:42] my host has two interfaces. if i disable one nic and use the other with vlan, no problem at all. [01:43] as soon as i enable the other nic in /etc/network/interfaces, the one with vlan stops working. [01:44] any ideas? [01:45] partlycloudy: "stops working" doesn't really tell us anything. Please be more specific [01:47] TJ-: certainly. basically, i can no longer ping the ip on the vlan interface. [01:47] partlycloudy: can you show us the configuration? [01:47] SlidingHorn: if you insist on an ubuntu-specific question... due to the underlying xrandr failure mode I am pursuing here, the Displays settings panel exhibits misbehavior. Where/how might I file that as a bug report? [01:48] sparr: use ubuntu-bug [01:48] how can I find out the package name for the main Settings program? [01:49] (or specifically the Displays part, if they come in separate plugin-like packages) [01:49] sparr: which Desktop Environment? [01:49] default on 18.10 [01:49] TJ-: sure. thanks for helping out. here is the /etc/network/interfaces when eno1.100 works: https://pastebin.com/8mFT5mzq [01:51] sparr: (looking - haven't used Gnome in quite a while, so I'm a little rusty with its applications) [01:52] TJ-: and here is the version when the ip 10.0.0.11 on eno1.100 can no longer be reached: https://pastebin.com/bw7vP9cL [01:53] sparr: I believe that uses gnome-control-center [01:54] partlycloudy: what are these NICs connected to physically? the same switch, separate switches, router, another device? [01:54] TJ-: both NICs are connected to the trunk ports on the same switch. [01:55] partlycloudy: and is there any config for enp2s0 being done via scripts in /etc/network/if-up.d ? [01:56] Suppose I'm a upstream package maintainer and I've issued a new release of the software I maintain. How do I get the package updated in ubuntu? [01:57] Tried posting in #python and #django but no one seems sure about my issue. [01:57] TJ-: i didn't add any extra scripts in /etc/network/if-up.d. only default scripts are present. [01:57] More generally, how can I import a users env into a cron script? [01:58] sparr, maybe this is your fix, `xrandr --output eDP-1-2 --mode 2560x1440` # this page gave me a clue https://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/xrandr#ajouter_et_appliquer_une_resolution_non_listee [01:59] mind the e > eDP-1-2 [01:59] Just tried: `$HOME/.bashrc;` and then `printenv` after and the variables I need are not there. [01:59] partlycloudy: It *sounds* as if, when the 2nd interface is UP, the packets may be being routed out of the wron interface. So check "ip route show" for starters. If that doesn't reveal anything obvious, then use "sudo tcpdump -ni eno1.100 icmp" and on the remote host start pinging 10.0.0.11 - you should see the ping packet arrive and a reply sent out. if you see both then the problem is on the switch or other [01:59] host. If you don't see a reply leave, switch tcpdump to eno1 (the untagged if) and see if the replies are going out there. If not, check the enp2s0 ! [02:00] else i like to see 'xrandr' output please [02:00] treehug88: you generally won't get a new version into an existing release - unless it's a snap [02:01] treehug88: get it into the in-development release before Feature Freeze [02:01] treehug88: once there, it *may* qualify for an SRU to older releases (Stable Release Update) [02:01] TJ-: thanks TJ. working on it. [02:02] OerHeks: https://gist.github.com/sparr/13717d0d5f8a0885dd199d25c29e9100 (note it's DP not eDP) [02:02] partlycloudy: I've got a similar but different issue here with a switch/router/AP. Wired>Wifi or Wifi>Wired works fine, but wired>wired loses ARP/ND replies - the hardware literally eats them! [02:03] TJ- how do I get it into the in-development release? [02:04] treehug88: presuming the package is already in Debian/Ubuntu, best bet is to get it up to date in Debian before the last archive sync is done in the current development cycle. If it is an Ubuntu-only package then prod the maintainer to sync with upstream [02:05] TJ- debian, of course. The package is in sid, what's the process to get it updated in Debian dev? [02:05] treehug88: I'm not entirely sure aside from a bug report requesting the maintainer to update to upstream [02:06] TJ-: tcpdump on eno1.100 shows incoming traffic (echo request), but no echo reply being sent out. [02:06] ok thanks TJ- [02:07] treehug88: Here's an example: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=887465 [02:07] Debian bug 887465 in guacamole "Please update to new upstream version" [Important,Open] [02:07] partlycloudy: right, so now see if you can find it on another interface on that host === TheRedQueen is now known as Drone [02:07] partlycloudy: might be worth checking the 'lo' interface as well if all others draw a blank [02:10] TJ-: thanks TJ. just checked. no echo reply from enp2s0 or lo. [02:10] partlycloudy: did you test eno1 itself as well [02:10] partlycloudy: I should have asked earlier, but are any firewall rules being configured ? [02:11] partlycloudy: also, what subnet is the remote pinging client on? also 10.0.0.0/24 ? [02:11] TJ-: got echo reply from eno1. ufw is disabled. iptables is empty. [02:12] partlycloudy: aha! so the reply is being routed out on eno1. That would suggest the remote client is on the 192.168.0.0/24 subnet [02:14] TJ-: actually, i replaced the public ip with 10.0.0.11 in my post. the remote client is on a different public ip network. [02:14] partlycloudy: also, you've got *two* gateways configured, so check which one is the default (maybe their metrics are different). It very much depends on the actual client IP address [02:15] TJ-: there is something i dun quite understand from the ip r s. [02:15] sparr, DP1-2 else i have no clue [02:15] TJ-: the top two lines shows as: [02:16] default via 192.168.0.1 dev eno1 onlink [02:16] default via 192.168.0.1 dev eno1 proto static [02:16] partlycloudy: I suspect there may be an ordering issue that surfaces when you've got the enp2s0 i/f active that causes the default gateway order to change [02:16] * not without 'xrandr' output [02:17] partlycloudy: I'd need to see the entire routing table to make sense of it [02:18] TJ-: i see. you meant the full ip r s? [02:18] partlycloudy: yes; this feels like a routing issue but without the real data it's impossible to know [02:20] Are there security issues associated with allowing ~/.bashrc to be executed in non-interactive env? This would be for a user only used to serve a webapp. [02:22] TJ-: certainly. i changed the public ip (/27) with 10.0.0.64/27. the rest remains the same. [02:22] default via 192.168.0.1 dev eno1 onlink [02:22] default via 192.168.0.1 dev eno1 proto static [02:22] 192.168.0.0/24 dev eno1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.11 [02:22] 10.0.0.64/27 dev eno1.100 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.0.67 [02:23] the ip on eno1.100 would be 10.0.0.67 [02:24] partlycloudy: so in your 2nd pastebin, there was a "gateway 10.0.0.1" ... I don't see that above [02:26] partlycloudy: Use the config without the enp2s0 i/f and see if the routing table is the same as above [02:26] I have to run. Thanks for trying to help! [02:26] partlycloudy: because I'd have expected to see another default route via 10.0.0.1 [02:28] TJ-: working on it… [02:31] TJ-: without enp2s0, it've changed to: [02:31] default via 10.0.0.65 dev eno1.100 onlink [02:31] default via 192.168.0.1 dev eno1 proto static [02:31] 192.168.0.0/24 dev eno1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.11 [02:31] 10.0.0.64/27 dev eno1.100 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.0.67 [02:31] partlycloudy: Aha! [02:32] partlycloudy: so, for some reason, *something* is removing the default via eno1.100 when you add the enp2s0 and replacing it with that 'onlink' - there must be some scripts acting on that you've not noticed [02:33] hey question about building packages that have build dependencies that conflict with installed packages [02:33] namely: how do you do it [02:34] i obviously need to put the build dependency somewhere while the thing compiles but installing it means wrecking my system [02:34] partlycloudy: is it possible you've got systemd-networkd and ifupdown fighting here? [02:35] dorian, start looking at chroots [02:35] i hope ifupdown wins [02:35] partlycloudy: default for 18.04 server is systemd-network configs often via /etc/netplan/* YAML [02:36] TJ-: turned out it is… the systemd-networkd is still running… [02:36] partlycloudy: doh! [02:36] TJ-: so if i want to use ifupdown, it should disable the systemd-networkd, right? [02:36] *i should [02:37] partlycloudy: yes. although I'd use systemd-network given the choice :) [02:37] ugh chroot huh [02:37] dorian: see "sbuild" and friends [02:38] dorian: see http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/setting-up-sbuild.html [02:39] looking [02:39] TJ-: i was following the documentation for openstack-ansible. it uses /etc/network/interface instead of netplan. some of the settings have no equivalent in netplan. [02:40] TJ-: so i switched to ifupdown. [02:41] partlycloudy: netplan is only really needed for orchestrated containers; for regular installs a static config is better I think ( /etc/systemd/network/ ) [02:42] TJ-: a million thanks TJ! :-D [02:42] partlycloudy: I still think you have a problem in your config though - there should not be two default gateways [02:43] TJ-: this looks straightforward enough [02:43] partlycloudy: the entire point is the default gw is used for addresses that don't match the known sub-nets [02:45] TJ-: i guess i'll remove the gw on 192.168.0.0/24. it was used for the initial setup via a router gw. [02:46] partlycloudy: if you need specific routes for other non-public sub-nets add those specifically, to avoid problems [02:48] TJ-: thank you so much TJ. i'd have never be able to solve it without your help. === mkv is now known as m4v [03:06] This is the htop screenshot after resuming from hibernation, how to debug this? https://imgur.com/a/hNRSEoV [03:13] why didn't you take a screenshot [03:13] gnome-screenshot -a [03:14] agio, system was unresponsive (look at the cpu usage) [03:14] :( [03:14] ah ok [03:16] marcanuy: holy damn, I've never seen a load avg so high. Im surprised you haven't cooked your cpu [03:16] how many cores does you CPU have? [03:19] agio, two cores [03:20] what does 'top' say, it shows zombies too [03:20] is your system still unresponsive? [03:21] agio, had to restart to avoid getting burn ;) [03:22] i cant make my ethernet on my dell e7440 laptop work with ubuntu 18.04 [03:22] OerHeks, htop should show them too in the status column as Z [03:23] lspci shows an ethernet controller, ifconfig doesnt, network manager shows no devices for ethernet [03:23] OerHeks, I'm also displaying user and kernel threads [03:31] what is "disco" [03:31] Emcy: disco is the upcoming 19.04 release of Ubuntu [03:32] oh [03:32] its listing packages already [03:34] Emcy: what do you mean? === mkv is now known as m4v [04:53] So, another stupid question. I can't get the wifi to work. [04:54] It's an intel 7260 chipset, and I can't seem to get it to connect to the wifi. It asks for a password, thinks for a bit, and asks for the password again, then the process repeats. === avelardi_alt is now known as avelardi [05:12] Has anyone had any luck following the openstack workstation deployment on ubuntu 18.10 server? [05:12] Having issues connecting to LXD after ubuntu install, and can't run lxd.migrate [05:22] chilli0: try asking in #ubuntu-server, too [05:31] @tomreyn, will do thanks [06:19] any idea why the menu in my editor "atom" is hardly visible, but only under ubuntu gnome (xubuntu it works fine) : https://discuss.atom.io/t/hardly-visible-menu-on-linux/61816/4 [06:24] pragomer: it uses electron, which handles font rendering in a somewhat different manner to regular GTK. [06:25] pragomer: perhaps you need to set some font settings it relies upon that are only set in xubuntu. [06:27] mm, you mean setting fonts in the app itself (atom) ? [06:27] or in a css file of atom? [06:28] do people still use iptables? [06:28] I known its a "hackable" editor ;-) but I am more a user and do unfortunatly not know where to hack this font problem. do you have an idea? [06:34] anyone here use iptables [06:34] pi0: only passivley with fail2ban [06:35] pi0: or on the webserver to save log lines: wp-login.php:/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 80 -s $REMOTE_ADDR -j DROP [06:36] apart from iptables what does ubuntu come with [06:36] iptables and firewall the same? [06:40] pi0: there is (g)ufw [06:41] those are frontends to iptables. there are many others. [06:45] ufw is front end for iptables [06:45] sorry but the default firewall for ubuntu is ufw? [06:45] new to ubuntu <--- [06:47] i think with 18.04 gufw is no longer installed by default, but i think it was in earlier releases. [06:47] by default there is no friewall. [06:56] i installed 18.10 [06:57] on my laptop man its nice [06:57] minimal gnome install [07:09] pragomer: No, not CSS. desktop font rendering settings. not the fonts. [07:09] pragomer: it may respond to older methods of configuring things like subpixel rendering. [07:37] Hello ! Is there a way I can monitor database connection(using python) to an mssql server ? I am on ubuntu 18.04 [07:38] Also I tried netstat -nat | grep while I was doing the query with no results [07:45] Hi, anyone using discord? I cant start it today, its nagging me about downloading an update (0.8).. but I thought it was supposed to be auto updated with snap? snap says I have 0.6 [08:14] sliddjur: for snap support, contact the maintainer of the snap please [08:16] sliddjur: i also dont see a 0.8 version of discord between the snaps? [08:17] Is there a good PDF reader for Ubuntu that allows me to change the default background colour? [08:17] Kira: inkscape can edit pdf's, but not sure about the background [08:17] reading long PDF documents in black-on-white is really tiring. :( [08:19] Kira: i think the original pdf always will show how its created [08:19] hey quick question, my laptop battery suddenly "moved" from bat0 to bat1 - any idea why that is? [08:20] lotuspsychje: when I start discord, it forces me to download update in a .deb package [08:20] sliddjur: where did you get discord in the first place? [08:21] lotuspsychje: snap [08:22] sliddjur: snap info discord, to see wich maintainer plz? [08:23] publisher: Snapcrafters [08:23] lotuspsychje, okular allows you to change the paper color [08:23] already much better than Evince. [08:24] I have a problem when I try to login as a user, I see the background for a second and then I get the login screen again. This happened after a recent base update. [08:24] sliddjur: that version shows 0.0.5 on my side, but please contact the snapcrafters for support [08:24] hi, does launchpad work for any of you guys with google chrome? since forever i get this error: https://cloud.neobits.nl/s/kwYyTDTJxDDAsTH i've disabled adblock, referer-block and the disconnect addon. but i always get this error (at least for 4 years). anyone else got this problem? and got it fixed? [08:25] alt-f2 is no longer bringing up a terminal. How do I get around this screen? [08:33] AquaL1te: for me it works, however i've got chromium [08:33] AquaL1te: but i also remember surfed it with google chrome and having never seen the error of your screenshot [08:35] How to solve assert.h not found problem even after installing build-essential and libc6-dev packages ? [08:35] AquaL1te: think ive seen such an error before, but i think it was when a user reported a bug with ubuntu-bug with chrome as default [08:36] tarzeau: i will check this, hopefully it works https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2355447 [08:36] lotuspsychje: i'm actually on fedora and want to file a bugreport for raspbian :) but launchpad is from canonical, so i came here [08:38] AquaL1te: but what i would like to know is, do you browse directly to launchpad or did you use ubuntu-bug? [08:41] AquaL1te: or you currently not on ubuntu? [08:44] lotuspsychje: i'm on fedora, no ubuntu software is running on my machine :) i created a new account, that account logs in fine... so i guess it's an internal problem of launchpad, that got reported everytime, but wasn't fixed. [08:46] try another browser AquaL1te as a test, we can also only support with ubuntu issues here [08:47] just tested with chromium and its also working fine like tarzeau says [08:47] lotuspsychje: browser is ruled out, it's a launchpad problem ;) i created a new account, which works fine [08:48] AquaL1te: why report a raspbian bug on launchpad? [08:48] ducasse: raspbian uses launchpad [08:48] huh, til [08:59] I have a problem when I try to login as a user, I see the background for a second and then I get the login screen again. This happened after a recent update. I can access and login to the terminal outside of the gui, booting to an older kernel does not help, moving .Xauthority is also not successful. [08:59] cYnIxX3: what kind of graphics card chipset & driver plz? [08:59] hum, laptop. [08:59] intel? [09:00] cYnIxX3: i dont know mate, we cant see that from here [09:00] thoughts of what i could check? [09:01] cYnIxX3: sudo lshw -C video or if you cant enter your system, lookup your laptop model? [09:01] one moment, let me bypass the gui and get that for you. [09:02] cYnIxX3: ubuntu version might also we usefull to know [09:02] *be [09:02] 18.10 [09:04] lotuspsychje, Intel HD Graphics 5500 driver=i915 [09:06] My appologies, 18.04.1 [09:06] is it possible to start a linux program with gtk2 instead of gtk3 ui ? [09:06] How would I attempt that? [09:07] or is that a general gui question unreleated to my inquiry? [09:08] cYnIxX3: as a test you could try !nomodeset to see if you can bypass login loop === lotuspsychje__ is now known as lotuspsychje [09:08] where do I set that? [09:08] !nomodeset | cYnIxX3 [09:08] cYnIxX3: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [09:09] cYnIxX3: ill be afk for a bit, if it doesnt fix ask again in the channel ok [09:09] I have used this PC on linux for a few years. Its only after an update reboot that this started. [09:09] Thank you [09:09] cYnIxX3: maybe pastebin your recent dpkg log to the channel also, volunteers might see whats going on [09:32] hi [09:32] how do I create an archive which tar xvf file.tar.xz expands to several files instead of a single directory. [09:33] have all the files in the archive. [09:33] which cmd [09:33] nope all the directories as well, it should expand to right there. [09:34] tar options archive -C directory [09:34] not in file/ but the subdirs of file/ should be extracted to [09:51] Hi all. I've copied an Ubuntu BIOS installation to UEFI and installed grub-efi-amd64-signed and now it boots, but only with secureboot disabled in UEFI settings. What do I need to make it boot with secureboot enabled? [09:52] In other words, if anyone here boots with secure boot enabled, could you please run `dpkg -l '*signed*' | grep ^ii | nc termbin.com 9999` so that I see which package I'm lacking? [09:54] * alkisg tests installing shim-signed... [09:55] Oh great that was it :D [09:55] * alkisg waves [09:58] hello everyone-can anyone tell me if this "sudo apt-get -f install" will check for missing dependencies (ubuntu 18.04) [09:59] can paste uname if its relevent [10:01] all good sorted [10:06]
