[00:00] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: pastebin 'sudo parted -ls'
[00:01] <duri> is there an equivalent of the Arch wiki for Ubuntu ? that is, a well-curated, source of documentation, in a wiki format ...
[00:01] <OerHeks> sure, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq
[00:01] <OerHeks> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#How_do_I_add_more_swap.3F
[00:02] <duri> or, rather, what is the most respected form of docs in the ubuntu community ?
[00:03] <OerHeks> duri, html & pdf https://help.ubuntu.com/
[00:03] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, Number  Start   End    Size   File system  Name                  Flags

[00:03] <duri> OerHeks: ok
[00:04] <Bashing-om> duri: Have you seen: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PopularPages ?
[00:04] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Control-D just sent me back to emergency mode
[00:04] <bray90820_> Like I expected
[00:05] <duri> Bashing-om: no, I was not aware of that. thanks! will explore
[00:07] <EriC^^> bray90820_: press enter when it asks for the password
[00:08] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: type "swapon -s"
[00:08] <EriC^^> !paste | gambl0r3
[00:09] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, what does that command do?
[00:09] <bray90820_> EriC^^: It says password incorrect because I set a password so should I enter my passowrd
[00:09] <OerHeks> -s show
[00:10] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: it shows the status of the swaps
[00:11] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, oh ok
[00:11] <EriC^^> bray90820_: yeah, enter the root password
[00:11] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, https://pastebin.com/yZLCP21B
[00:12] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Then what?
[00:12] <EriC^^> bray90820_: type "mount -o remount,rw /"
[00:13] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: type "sudo swapoff -a"
[00:13] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: that will deactivate the swap for right now
[00:13] <gambl0r3> the command does nothing
[00:14] <gambl0r3> wtf. i dont want to deactivate it
[00:14] <gambl0r3> tell me what a command does before telling to type it
[00:14] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: 1 language, 2 you need to deactivate it before making it bigger, 3 i did tell you 1sec later..
[00:15] <gambl0r3> you should say step 2, before telling 'type <cmd>'
[00:15] <gambl0r3> just saying
[00:16] <Gerowen> gambl0r3: If you're looking for help with something, it would behooves you not to get angry with somebody who is volunteering time they could be spending on something else to help you out.  He could have just told you to google it and figure it out yourself.
[00:16] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: well, you asked how to enlarge swap, i cant write a newspaper about the whole ordeal
[00:16] <gambl0r3> Gerowen, dont be so sensitive. im not angry.
[00:17] <gambl0r3> sometimes people say, do this...do that without even explaining what they're trying to do
[00:17] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: i dont know how much you know/want to know about the process
[00:18] <EriC^^> maybe be like 'explain each step to me, i care to learn/know'
[00:18] <gambl0r3> i dont want a newspaper article but a simple one line explanation would be nice....'type <cmd>.  this command does X'
[00:19] <OerHeks> why should we copy paste..
[00:19] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: anyhow, type 'sudo rm /swapfile'  that removes the swapfile
[00:20] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, should i close all my applications?
[00:20] <gambl0r3> before i type that command?
[00:21] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: no
[00:21] <gambl0r3> ok done. now what
[00:22] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: how big do you want the new swap?
[00:22] <gambl0r3> i dont know, how big should i make it?
[00:22] <bray90820_> EriC^^: I did the mount and remount now what?
[00:22] <gambl0r3> i have 8gb of ram
[00:23] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: that depends on your needs and whether you want hibernation to work you'll need 8gb in that case
[00:23] <EriC^^> bray90820_: type 'update-initrd -u k all'
[00:24] <gambl0r3> whats the difference between swap and ram?
[00:24] <gambl0r3> i have 8gb of ram, that should be more than enough for what im doing
[00:24] <mmarconm> swap its used when i ran got out
[00:24] <gambl0r3> mmarconm, what? that made no sense
[00:25] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: how did you gather that 1.x/2gb is being used?
[00:25] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, i have no idea. it just builds up over time
[00:25] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: maybe something you're running has a memory leak and it's eating up your ram?
[00:26] <gambl0r3> i can only think of firefox
[00:26] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Command not found
[00:26] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: type "ps aux | sort -k3" and look at what has the memory consumed
[00:26] <gambl0r3> i mostly use firefox, my code editor, libreoffice. thats pretty much it
[00:27] <gambl0r3> and hexchat
[00:27] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: what's the memory right now at? try "free -h"
[00:28] <EriC^^> bray90820_: sorry, "update-initramfs -u -k all"
[00:28] <gambl0r3> thats a useful command.
[00:28] <NorthwestVegan> htop will also give you the mem usage of the processes
[00:28] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, https://pastebin.com/0Cp2uRAA
[00:28] <gambl0r3> i use htop. thats how i know my swap is almost full
[00:29] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: the memory looks good right now, 4gb free
[00:30] <gambl0r3> ok i still dont know how much swap i should allocate
[00:30] <gambl0r3> 3gb?
[00:30] <NorthwestVegan> you could also ps -aux to get the pid and use pmap to see all the usage of that process
[00:31] <gambl0r3> if my swap is full but i still have lots of ram, will that affect the performance of my computer?
[00:31] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Then what?
[00:33] <umhello> heya
[00:33] <umhello> does anyone know how to fix enp0s3
[00:33] <umhello> not being seen by networkmanager
[00:33] <umhello> and yet
[00:33] <umhello> controllable by ifconfig
[00:33] <umhello> like, ifconfig sees it but networkmanager does not
[00:33] <tomreyn> !enter | umhello
[00:34] <umhello> considers it unmanaged.
[00:35] <RtMF|afk> umhello: check /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf if "nmcli dev set enp0s3 managed yes" doesn't work
[00:35]  * RtMF|afk may have gotten set and dev in the wrong order there
[00:35] <RtMF|afk> and the config file will have a mention of it listed in umanaged or managed=no, right now I'm on my VPS which doesn't happen to have it installed
[00:36] <EriC^^> bray90820_: type 'reboot'
[00:36] <RtMF|afk> >.> is it worth unafking with ~20min left?
[00:36] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: no it wont
[00:37] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: keep a look at the memory and see if it was full at some point so that it started using swap
[00:37] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, oh i see. so it only uses swap whenever my ram is full?
[00:37] <EriC^^> i think so, i'm not entirely sure
[00:38] <EriC^^> i guess not though, i'm actually using 10mb of swap though i dont think my memory was full, so i guess not
[00:38] <gambl0r3> i dont think so either cause i dont know i've ever reached max ram usage
[00:38] <umhello> RtMf|afk this is the config file:   GNU nano 2.9.3       /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf                    [main] plugins=ifupdown,keyfile  [ifupdown] managed=true  [device] wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no
[00:39] <EriC^^> i'd say just make sure the memory isn't getting full and all is good, no need to make the swap larger unless you want hibernation
[00:39] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Back to emergency mode
[00:39] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: did you run the "sudo rm /swapfile" comman btw?
[00:39] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, ya
[00:39] <EriC^^> bray90820_: see if it mentions anything before the emergency mode, it might have to do with the fsck it ran earlier, the filesystem might be missing files
[00:40] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: ok, to make the swap file again type "sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile"
[00:40] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: then type "sudo chmod 600 /swapfile && sudo mkswap /swapfile"
[00:40] <gambl0r3> that creates a swap file with 2gb right?
[00:40] <EriC^^> yeah
[00:41] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, thanks
[00:42] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: no problem, btw what does "cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness" give? default is 60
[00:42] <umhello> so um does anyone know what can be done to make it amnagaed
[00:43] <umhello> *managed
[00:43] <umhello> using 18.04.2 LTS btw
[00:44] <gambl0r3> EriC^^, 60. what does that mean?
[00:44] <EriC^^> gambl0r3: it's how much the kernel will tend to use the swap, higher value means more swap usage
[00:45] <gambl0r3> ok
[00:45] <bray90820_> EriC^^: These are currently the only errors I can find
[00:45] <bray90820_> https://www.dropbox.com/s/9alfe6qg4jisdlx/Error%202.jpg?dl=0
[00:46] <EriC^^> bray90820_: try logging in, then typing "journalctl -xb"
[00:46] <tomreyn> umhello: is this a new installation, was network manager working before, did you make changes to it which broke it?
[00:47] <umhello> yes, this is a new installation. it was working before. stopped working after I added iscsi or added a keyscript
[00:47] <umhello> possible one of those influenced it?
[00:47] <umhello> or the initramfs hook but unlikely
[00:48] <tomreyn> umhello: depends on how you did it, i guess.
[00:48] <tomreyn> umhello: is this a server or desktop installation?
[00:48] <umhello> desktop
[00:48] <tomreyn> umhello: with iscsi storage?
[00:49] <umhello> uh no idea tbh; iscsi is just used to get internet connectivity before a boot script runs
[00:49] <umhello> well, in the initramfs
[00:50] <tomreyn> umhello: i can't follow this logic. can you point to the how.to you followed?
[00:50] <umhello> haven't followed any howto; i just use iscsi in initramfs to get internet because it was what I found somewhen a month ago or so
[00:51] <umhello> well, the only howto I have is my commands list
[00:51] <tomreyn> umhello: do you feel like sharing those commands?
[00:52] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Lots of stuff there but theses seems to be the only errors
[00:52] <bray90820_> https://www.dropbox.com/s/r6pmckcvm81rjy0/IMG_20190223_184912.jpg?dl=0
[00:53] <umhello> well nothing much there; just apt update, upgrade, add a keyscript to /etc/crypttab, install guest additions in vb and virtualbox-guest-dkms, add +x to keyscript, install open-iscsi and sshpass, echo "iscsi" >> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, echo "ISCSI_AUTO=true" > /etc/iscsi/iscsi.initramfs, add a hook to initamfs-tools, add +x to it, ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096, update-initramfs -u and also reboot a few times in the process
[00:54] <umhello> that's it
[00:54] <EriC^^> bray90820_: aha seems like a bug, try the using the advanced menu in grub to boot an older kernel, or when you get to emergency mode, press ctrl+d to try continue booting
[00:54] <bray90820_> Tried control-D already
[00:54] <bray90820_> I will try an older kernel
[00:57] <umhello> is there anything wrong with that setup tomreyn
[00:57] <tomreyn> umhello: so you're using a side effect of initializing the iscsi module to bring up the network early. that's weird, and there are surely better ways, but it should not break things. other than network-manager, probably, which will likel ynot try to initialize an already initialized network interface.
[00:57] <Gerowen> Is there any VM software that lets you create ARM based virtual machines on an X86 host?  I would like to experiment with things like ubuntu core in a virtualised environment, but VirtualBox only does x86 virtual machines.
[00:58] <umhello> good point tomreyn - any ideas on how I could uninitialize the network interface so that it'd be... reinitialized?
[00:59] <tomreyn> umhello: no, not really, would have to read up on how this works, too.
[01:00] <Bashing-om> Gerowen: About 60 bucks but you may find this of interest: https://blog.ubuntu.com/2019/02/19/easy-iot-with-ubuntu-core-and-raspberry-pi
[01:00] <umhello> hm, I see. but it's not possible to add a pre-initialized network interface to networkmanager is it
[01:03] <Gerowen> Bashing-om: I was literally just reading that, is what made me curious, :p
[01:04] <umhello> also what other ways would there be that could perhaps not break network-manager tomreyn
[01:04] <Gerowen> I have a raspberry pi, although "technically" I gave it to my little boy as a retropie, so I don't want to take it from him.
[01:04] <Gerowen> I may just have to order my own.
[01:04] <Gerowen> Just wanted a way to tinker and try things out in a virtual environment before committing things to hardware.
[01:05] <bray90820_> EriC^^: All three kernels do the same thing
[01:09] <tomreyn> umhello: do you have a NM connection profile for this interface?
[01:11] <umhello> adding one didn't really work tbh tomreyn
[01:11] <umhello> networkmanager straight up ignores enp0s3
[01:11] <Bashing-om> Gerowen: :) Going where no man has gone before :P
[01:14] <qwebirc69549> can someone help me get an inspiron 7347 on wifi?
[01:14] <qwebirc51902> hello, could anyone help me? my problem: when i reboot the system, it doesnt recognize the Mini USB Wireless N300Mbps TL-WN823N. I have to disconnect it and then conect it again.
[01:16] <tomreyn> umhello: "nmcli d set <ifname> autoconnect yes managed yes" should make a device managed by NM.
[01:16] <tomreyn> umhello: also, "nmcli n" should report that it is enabled
[01:18] <umhello> it reports it is enabled... but if I write nmcli it says itš unmanaged
[01:20] <qwebirc51902> hello, could anyone help me? my problem: when i reboot the system, it doesnt recognize the Mini USB Wireless N300Mbps TL-WN823N. I have to disconnect it and then conect it again.
[01:20] <bray90820_> EriC^^: What should i do from here?
[01:24] <EriC^^> bray90820_: no idea tbh
[01:24] <bray90820_> Maybe I could update the kernel from the live USB
[01:25] <bray90820_> Do you know what Kernel I was trying to boot from when it failed?
[01:25] <EriC^^> bray90820_: i was about to suggest that, go to the grub recovery mode and before choosing drop to root shell choose "start  networking"
[01:25] <tomreyn> umhello: maybe it's managed by systemd-networkd then?
[01:25] <EriC^^> bray90820_: then drop to root shell and try "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[01:26] <bray90820_> Drop to the root shell where I was at before?
[01:26] <umhello> seems to be the case! Any way to fix that? tomreyn
[01:27] <tomreyn> umhello: well this doesn't happen by itself. i guess you did it, then you will probbaly know how to undo it, too?
[01:27] <Bashing-om> untermensch: Check from the "renderer" line : cat /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml .
[01:28] <umhello> has to be a side effect of the iscsi boot
[01:28] <umhello> no idea how to undo it, but guess Iļl try that tomorrow. :D
[01:29] <tomreyn> umhello: systemd-networkd configuration is stored in /etc/systemd/networkd.conf (IIRC)
[01:31] <umhello> this is getting funny - the network folder is empty!
[01:32] <umhello> yet the logs show  systemd-networkd[616]: enp0s3: Configured"
[01:33] <tomreyn> umhello: read its man page, it will tell all its configuration locations
[01:34] <umhello> Yup, found two files in the /run/ one
[01:34] <umhello> which contain my network configuration
[01:35] <umhello> (well, in /run/systemd/network)
[01:35] <umhello> what would fix the current situation?
[01:36] <bray90820_> EriC^^: so what exactly am I suppose to do?
[01:42] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Apperently it's still a swap issue
[01:43] <bray90820_> https://www.dropbox.com/s/tjdl83kkkrxiz9n/IMG_20190223_194121.jpg?dl=0
[01:43] <bray90820_> Apparently that timed out before and I didn't realize it
[01:44] <Bashing-om> umhello: "netplan" controls networking. For a place to start see: https://blog.ubuntu.com/2017/12/01/ubuntu-bionic-netplan .
[01:46] <umhello> checked it out earlier, sadly doesn't do much
[01:51] <umhello> all I know is that it is managed by systemd-networkd-wait-nolnie
[01:51] <umhello> *online
[01:53] <scientes> what do i need to do to get ubuntu to boot after copying the whole filesystem to another disk
[01:53] <scientes> I changed /etc/fstab and ran update-grub, and install-grub
[01:53] <scientes> but it still hung
[01:58] <EriC^^> bray90820_: try commenting out the swap line in fstab temporarily by adding a "#" at the start of the line
[01:59] <EriC^^> bray90820_: it doesnt mention a swap issue, it mentions something about a backup service, a custom one
[02:00] <EriC^^> bray90820_: try commenting out this line in fstab /dev/Backup/Backup		/media/aaron/Backup		ext4	defaults1 2
[02:12] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Yeah that's not a backup service backup is the name of my LVM
[02:12] <bray90820_> I think I may have figured out the iddue
[02:12] <bray90820_> *Issue
[02:14] <bray90820_> So that wasn't the issue
[02:15] <bray90820_> But backup that you were referring to is my LVM
[02:19] <bray90820_> EriC^^: So yeah that booted but now my LVM is not accessible
[02:34] <mustmodify______> I've really hosed something while attempting to fix my version of ssl.
[02:34] <mustmodify______> I rebooted and now the only network I see under 'ifconfig' is 'lo'.
[02:34] <mustmodify______> (and docker0, which ... doesn't count.)
[02:35] <mustmodify______> also 'dhclient: command not found'
[02:37] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Got any more ideas?
[02:37] <VitoG> dunno
[02:42] <mustmodify______> So... what package do I need to install to get DHCP running?
[02:43] <scientes> my dock disappeared and i can't figure out why
[02:55] <tomreyn> mustmodify______: for a dhcp *client*? one option is isc-dhcp-client
[02:57] <whoareU1> in order to download bt&magnet torrent file, which tools in command line can use?
[03:00] <tomreyn> whoareU1: apt-cache search bittorrent.*(cli|console|nox)
[03:01] <rfm> whoareU1, I use transmission-daemon and transmission-remote (though really I use the web interface more than command)
[03:14] <bray90820_> EriC^^: I think this is a result of the initramfs stuff we were doing before
[03:15] <bray90820_> https://pastebin.com/raw/c4Hgkqyx
[03:30] <bray90820_> EriC^^: Ok yeah my bad don't listen to me
[03:53] <jxfreeman> Good evening
[03:54] <jxfreeman> Have the irc.ubuntu.com servers been taken down?
[03:54] <jxfreeman> Perhaps the wrong question
[03:55] <jxfreeman> When I attempt to connect I get cert errors.
[03:57] <bray90820_> How would I mount an LVM on boot?
[03:59] <C0BALT> Hello from Vancouver. I'm very new to buntutntu

[04:25] <Guest51063> l
[04:46] <cliff1245> Hi, is there a way to change my interface name now that ifconfig isn't on the box anymore?
[04:50] <guiverc> cliff1245, you can add `ifconfig` if you want the relegated command, but https://askubuntu.com/questions/767786/changing-network-interfaces-name-ubuntu-16-04  (upvote 60) answer may be helpful
[04:50] <ChiLL-Two> i dont know but you can install net-tools
[04:51] <ChiLL-Two> to get ifconfig
[04:54] <cliff1245> thanks, I'd rather not have to install net-tools
[04:55] <ryuo> cliff1245: the only way i found that was effective was to use systemd's link files. see man systemd.link
[05:00] <Bashing-om> cliff1245: See: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/ to change.

[06:39] <CarlFK> OerHeks: I'm still not finding that file.  but maybe it gets renamed? also how do I "download the grub-efi-amd64-signed binary package with apt-get and extract the grubnetx64.efi.signed binary" ?
[06:41] <CarlFK> maybe this is it: /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi-signed/grubnetx64.efi.signed
[06:42] <OerHeks> wget ?
[06:42] <OerHeks> and how to extract, i have no clue in that wiki
[06:48] <CarlFK> heh - wiki says "The uefi-netboot.sh script enables you to download..."
[06:48] <CarlFK> uefi-netboot.sh does wget -O grubx64.efi http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/saucy/main/uefi/grub2-amd64/current/grubnetx64.efi.signed
[06:48] <CarlFK> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/saucy/main/uefi/grub2-amd64/current/grubnetx64.efi.signed  404
[06:48] <CarlFK> I'm kinda going in the wrong direction :p
[07:19] <MagePsycho> I am unable to exit from crontab
[07:19] <MagePsycho> sudo crontab -u www-data -e
[07:19] <MagePsycho> just prints the length of content
[07:20] <MagePsycho> and I am stuck, unable to exit even if i type exit, :q!, Ctrl + x, quit .. whatever
[07:25] <sandwitch> MagePsycho, mayby your (accidental) in command mode of vi, ty some escapes ans then 'q!'
[07:25] <qwebirc34378> Is there a coherent way to do a fresh install of 18.04.2 on USB using UEFI?
[07:34] <MagePsycho> I have posted by question here - https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/502647/unable-to-get-out-from-crontab-command
[07:35] <MagePsycho> If anybody is interested in giving answers. Thanks
[07:35] <cyberspectre> Hey guys. I'm using a docker container based on ubuntu. Being a container, it's lightweight, and didn't come with cron. I installed cron, but cron doesn't start on system boot. How can I make it start on boot?
[07:36] <cim209> cyberspectre: you'd have build a new image based on that container then do your mods in the Dockerfile
[07:37] <guiverc> MagePsycho, what is your default editor?  you may have it set to an editor you don't know, and it's this knowledge that baffles you.
[07:37] <guiverc> MagePsycho, `man crontab` and search `-e'  for more info if you want to change the editor to something you know.
[07:38] <cim209> then docker build -t your-name/parent-image-name-or-whatever
[07:38] <cim209> oops forgot the . at the end, that's important
[07:39] <cyberspectre> cim209, oh man, that's more complicated than I assumed. I don't know if I'm up for that
[07:39] <cim209> it's not complicated at all
[07:40] <cyberspectre> I just know practically nothing about docker yet. This is the first time I'm using it
[07:40] <cim209> i'm kinda new too
[07:40] <cim209> but i'm building my own docker stack using traefik as the reverse proxy
[07:41] <cyberspectre> So let me look into what you're telling me to do.
[07:42] <cim209> your Dockerfile would have something like From ubuntu RUN apt update && apt install some-cron-service

[08:41] <teamspeakuser> Is there an up to date alternative to youtube-dl?
[08:41] <ducasse> youtube-dl is frequently updated, just not the ubuntu packages
[08:42] <ducasse> !latest
[08:49] <whoareU> i need set browser as my proxy-user in wget command, but i can't find where to get these information
[09:07] <teamspeakuser> ducasse:  how can I enable to get the latest update of youtube-dl?
[09:07] <no_gravity> Hello! Sometimes the ssh connection between my desktop and my laptop suddenly hangs for a while. Any ideas how to go about this?
[09:09] <ducasse> teamspeakuser: you can look for a ppa or other third-party package, i also think it is installable with pip.
[09:13] <ducasse> no_gravity: wireless connection?
[09:14] <no_gravity> ducasse: Yes
[09:14] <ducasse> no_gravity: try using wired instead
[09:14] <no_gravity> ducasse: No
[09:14] <ducasse> ok, then
[09:18] <ducasse> no_gravity: it would help you determine if there is something in your wireless setup that needs to be fixed, but if you don't want to you're on your own
[10:21] <j00n> Hello! Is there a way to get m2crypto for python3 under ubuntu? Also, when I try to install it via pip on bionic and on cosmic it simply fails. This is really annoying
[10:22] <j00n> Why doesn't Ubuntu offer m2crypto lib for py3 anyway?
[10:27] <ducasse> !info python-m2crypto
[10:27] <ducasse> seems there is no python3 version, has one been made?
[10:28] <j00n> Tring to build it from source or via pip also fails on cosmic and bionic
[10:28] <j00n> which really sucks
[10:29] <ducasse> i'd ask the maintainer of python-m2crypto
[10:39] <tmm88> hey guys
[10:39] <tmm88> does ubuntu 64 bit 18 lts works on a intel q9900?
[10:39] <ducasse> good morning
[10:40] <tmm88> ducasse good morning how are you doing?
[10:40] <tmm88> esidore ducasse is a great name of a great surrealistic writer
[10:41] <ducasse> he is :)
[10:42] <ducasse> afaict that should work fine
[10:44] <ducasse> although i can't find any info on it
[10:46] <KaitoDaumoto> is there any requirements on installing? like drivers (just curious)
[10:46] <lotuspsychje> KaitoDaumoto: depends what you are trying to do?
[10:48] <ducasse> KaitoDaumoto: the regular install image will let you get far enough to install and add any drivers you might need
[10:48] <ducasse> the kernel itself already supports most hardware
[10:50] <KaitoDaumoto> i see so i have no issue for this .. lately i was tried to install ubuntu via usb but sadly the error popups on the earlier installation ...
[10:51] <tchakatak> tmm88: you should not have any problems on a C2Q
[10:53] <lotuspsychje> KaitoDaumoto: what kind of error?
[11:01] <KaitoDaumoto> the thing cant be install and error come out everytime i booted the OS .. sometime screen blacky too
[11:01] <KaitoDaumoto> ill screenshot when i try it again later
[11:01] <KaitoDaumoto> :D
[11:08] <lewistech> yo

[11:16] <EmanueleC> Hi, I've submitted some bugs for Kubuntu, but I know that the bugs are not taken into consideration like on Ubuntu and the last bug that I reported is a bit annoying and present for a long time.

[11:17] <EmanueleC> Hi, I've submitted some bugs for Kubuntu, but I know that the bugs are not taken into consideration like on Ubuntu and the last bug that I reported is a bit annoying and present for a long time.

[11:18] <adam_> hi
[11:19] <tchakatak> It was wrote 20h ago... leave it a bit of time
[11:20] <adam_> pardon?
[11:20] <tchakatak> adam_: it was not for you ;)
[11:20] <adam_> oh, okay. sorry :)
[11:20] <adam_> im new here
[11:21] <tchakatak> adam_: dont worry.
[11:21] <EmanueleC> Another bug bother, even if now I realized that I solved since I added from "NVIDIA setting" the option: "Force Full composition pipeline", an option that solves the tearing on NVIDIA + KWIN.
[11:21] <EmanueleC> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1816558
[11:22] <ducasse> EmanueleC: you are going to get bugs in any distro
[11:23] <EmanueleC> Other reported bugs of old, and that have many users
[11:23] <EmanueleC> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-xapian-index/+bug/363695
[11:24] <ducasse> some bugs get more attention than others, that's just the way it is
[11:47] <EmanueleC> I have a question to ask: How come Ubuntu desktop does not consider defaulting to Btrfs? The huge advantages it has on snapshots would be useful when updating from release A to release B
[11:47] <EmanueleC> I had also asked on the forum: https://community.ubuntu.com/t/switch-to-btrfs-by-default/9783
[11:48] <ducasse> because it's still under development
[11:50] <EmanueleC> It does not seem that way from the WIKI status of Btrfs https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Status
[11:50] <blackflow> and proven rather unreliable.
[11:50] <blackflow> EmanueleC: yeah, no.   https://wiki.debian.org/Btrfs#Warnings
[11:51] <ducasse> EmanueleC: in my experience it's not ready yet
[11:51] <blackflow> Ubuntu is betting on ZFS instead
[11:51] <blackflow> rumor has it it's being added to the installers
[11:51] <blackflow> (the support for it)
[11:53] <EmanueleC> Are all cases for desktop use? I use Btrfs in single volume from Ubuntu 12.04, with enabled LZO compression, ZSTD and autodefrag, I've never had a problem, it has helped me many times to restore the snapshot after a regression in some update or version upgrade.
[11:54] <blackflow> they're cases for "btrfs use".
[11:54] <EmanueleC> 145/5000
[11:54] <EmanueleC> Am I wrong or ZFS is not included in the Linux kernel? and is not supported by Linux kernel maintainers?
[11:54] <EmanueleC> See the latest problems with the 5. * kernel on ZFS.
[11:55] <blackflow> EmanueleC: neither is nvidia
[11:56] <blackflow> meaning what's your point?   ZFS is part of the Ubuntu linux kernel packages, and fully supported excpet for installation on ZFS root, which, I'm told, is a WIP
[11:56] <blackflow> the problems with linux 5.x are political and soemthing ZFS has alredy worked around
[11:56] <blackflow> (by implementing the functionality itself, rather than relying on deprecated kernel APIs that are now exported as GPL only)
[11:58] <EmanueleC> I want to reiterate on the point "that Btrfs is not stable", openSUSE uses it on "/" for many years, without major problems
[11:58] <EmanueleC> https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:BTRFS
[11:58] <ducasse> this is really getting offtopic here, too
[11:58] <blackflow> EmanueleC: "without major problems" is [citation needed]
[11:58] <blackflow>   and besides, nobody else does. Red Hat has made it clear they will not support Btrfs.
[11:59] <blackflow> OpenSUSE is a big mess distro. their own rolling release Tumbleweed is not working properly with their own package tool zypper
[11:59] <blackflow> so I wouldn't value what opensuse does or thinks, one bit as anything serious.
[12:00] <blackflow> this convo is perhaps more suitable for #ubuntu-discuss
[12:01] <whoareU> error prompt" kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908), when i install virualbox on ubuntu18.04
[12:04] <ixxie> morning folks; say I want to bump the version of a package to a particular version with apt-get, how would I do this?
[12:05] <ixxie> for example I currently have the default tmux 2.6 installed and wanna bump to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tmux/2.8-2
[12:08] <ducasse> ixxie: grab the package source and build it, or look for a ppa with the version you want
[12:09] <ixxie> ducasse: so there is no way to tell apt to install a particular version besides selecting the ppa?
[12:10] <ducasse> ixxie: it needs a repo to get it from
[12:10] <ixxie> I see
[12:10] <blackflow> ixxie: there is but it's not really recommended. you add 19.04 repo and then do some apt-pinning to get tmux only from that repo. which would probably pull in a newer libevent which would probably break your system for other things that require libevent.
[12:10] <ixxie> so better to just build from source
[12:10] <blackflow> ideally you backport the package, by building it from src-deb as ducasse suggested.
[12:11] <ixxie> right
[12:27] <BluesKaj> Hi Folks
[12:50] <stripe> hi all, would it be possible to move /var to a seperate drive by mounting that drive as /var by editing /etc/fstab and copying the contents of /var over, or would a fresh install be the best course of action? cheers
[12:53] <ducasse> stripe: you can move it, but you might want to do so from a live image as plenty of the contents are open by the running system
[12:55] <stripe> ducasse, thanks I never thought about using a live cd (so the system was not running) makes perfect sense, cheers mate :)

[13:34] <lotuspsychje> iCherry: do you have an ubuntu question?
[13:34] <iCherry> i open lappy, turns out it ran out of battery thru the night, so i plug it in what not
[13:34] <iCherry> yeah gimme sec
[13:34] <iCherry> grub shows up, this usually didnt happen so i press enter whatever
[13:35] <iCherry> https://i.imgur.com/2NraWVZ.jpg
[13:35] <iCherry> and then that shows up
[13:35] <lotuspsychje> iCherry: your ubuntu version and laptop brand/model please?
[13:36] <iCherry> ubuntu 18.10, acer aspire AO1-431-C2Q8
[13:37] <lotuspsychje> iCherry: did you try to boot a previous kernel yet?
[13:37] <iCherry> then after a couple of seconds it just continued to the login screen https://i.imgur.com/3ptdrFS.jpg
[13:37] <badSophia> how can i know my cpu on ubuntu?
[13:38] <tomreyn> badSophia: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[13:38] <lotuspsychje> iCherry: so it hits login screen afterall
[13:38] <tomreyn> badSophia: a web search had surely brought this up, too, though ;-)
[13:38] <iCherry> yeah
[13:38] <badSophia> tomreyn: thanks
[13:38] <iCherry> and i manage to login as usual
[13:39] <iCherry> but something like that cant be normal
[13:39] <lotuspsychje> iCherry: doublecheck if system up to date?
[13:39] <badSophia> tomreyn: anyway intel pentinum(r) cpu u5400 1.2GHz is not good to use ubuntu?
[13:39] <tomreyn> badSophia: it's good if it works for you
[13:40] <badSophia> if it works for me?
[13:40] <badSophia> what you mean?
[13:40] <lotuspsychje> !acpi | iCherry see also
[13:40] <ducasse> badSophia: if it does what you need
[13:40] <badSophia> ah
[13:40] <badSophia> thanks
[13:41] <tomreyn> badSophia: it's a very old ultra-mobile cpu, but if you don't mind the performance when running ubuntu on it then i guess you'Re fine.
[13:41] <badSophia> when i use it on windows 10, i must wait something for long time :(
[13:41] <badSophia> ok thanks tomreyn :)
[13:41] <iCherry> did update/upgrade, nothing related to kernel there
[13:42] <iCherry> ill see
[13:42] <lotuspsychje> iCherry: maybe it was a glitch related to your powercut?
[13:43] <iCherry> yeah thats what i thought at first, ill go through the bios article thing and eestart
[13:43] <badSophia> tomreyn: raspberry pi3 vs u5400 cpu, which is better to use my server?
[13:43] <iCherry> restart
[13:43] <tomreyn> badSophia: we don't really do ##hardware here, other than supporting ubuntu's system requirements.
[13:44] <badSophia> ah thanks tomreyn :)
[13:48] <iCherry> well
[13:48] <iCherry> it only provides a .exe
[13:49] <iCherry> neat
[13:49] <lotuspsychje> !biosupdate | iCherry
[13:52] <tomreyn> iCherry: to find your current bios version: dmesg -t | grep ^DMI:
[13:52] <iCherry> wait what
[13:52] <iCherry> itll execute the .exe even if i got no windows on it? nicce
[13:53] <tomreyn> don't do the firmware update this way on linux.
[13:53] <iCherry> it seems acer provides updates only for windows so im kinda stuck there
[13:54] <lotuspsychje> iCherry: did you read the biosupdate link?
[13:54] <iCherry> yewh
[13:54] <iCherry> yeah
[13:56] <iCherry> ill restart lappy and maybe its fixed, maybe it was a power cut bug
[14:01] <FavouriteFruit> Well, same thing again, but I guess it still works so w/e
[14:01] <FavouriteFruit> Thanks though
[14:04] <tomreyn> like all (or all i've seen so far) acer bios'es this is an insyde bios, the latest is version 1.12 (release date 2017/02/20). insyde does provide linux firmware update utilities, but not to the general public (you can still find download links, but maybe not the latest version)
[14:04] <tomreyn> and of course, that's not supported then, your own risk.
[14:05] <iCherry> yeah, insyde, ive got 1.08 or 1.06 depending on what app i listen to
[14:05] <iCherry> well, it works for now and thats all that matters, thx
[14:05] <lotuspsychje> iCherry: you can try the freedos method described on the wiki
[14:06] <tomreyn> btw. it's normal for the grub menu to show up when your system did not do a clean shutdown.
[14:07] <tomreyn> you should configure it to shutdown by itself when power goes low to prevent such situations.
[14:07] <iCherry> yeah ill look into that
[14:07] <tomreyn> shutdown gracefully, that is.
[14:08] <iCherry> lotus thx, i didnt see that one, ill check it out
[14:08] <lotuspsychje> good luck
[14:08] <iCherry> ty
[14:11] <tomreyn> the freeods method wont work with acer insyde bioses, they only support it on windows 64-bit platforms.
[14:11] <tomreyn> there 'they' = acer, insyde supports others.
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> ah good to know tomreyn
[14:13] <Vuurdraak_> good day all, if i do a distro upgrade from 14.04 lts to 18.04 lts , will it remove openshot v1 that i use from the ubuntu 14.04 repo and replace it with a later version like v2 that misses functionality compaired to the older version, and if so how to stop it
[14:17] <tomreyn> Vuurdraak_: it will upgrade openshot to version 2.4.1 (+ Ubuntu patches)
[14:17] <Vuurdraak_> :(
[14:18] <Vuurdraak_> can i prevent that from hapening as i already have both versions and v1 can do stuff v2 cant do
[14:18] <tomreyn> Vuurdraak_: not upgrading ubuntu is not an option, though, since 14.04 is on the brink to reaching its end of life
[14:18] <Vuurdraak_> yes
[14:19] <Vuurdraak_> the thing is openshot officialy doesnt support v1 anymore its not on their website, im afraid i will lose v1 without being able to get it back
[14:19] <tomreyn> Vuurdraak_: xenial (ubuntu 16.04 LTS) has two more years of support and provides openshot 1.4.3
[14:19] <lotuspsychje> Vuurdraak_: add a new !bug wishlist to openshot, and explain what the current version can't
[14:19] <Vuurdraak_> its sad as both programs have differnt options
[14:19] <tomreyn> you may also be able to find unsupported openshot 1.x packages for 18.04
[14:19] <Vuurdraak_> mm interesting
[14:20] <tomreyn> !ppa
[14:21] <Vuurdraak_> thanks for the tips
[14:22] <courrier> Anyone using DéjàDup for backups? I'm getting an endless password question and dunno what to do
[14:22] <courrier> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54612290/d%c3%a9j%c3%a0-dup-37-0-asks-password-again-and-again
[14:25] <Vuurdraak_> so for instance this repo got openshot 1.4.3-1 , im guessing there is no certainty it will work in 18.04, as it might depend on older packages or something, https://launchpad.net/~viktornova/+archive/ubuntu/random
[14:25] <lotuspsychje> Vuurdraak_: external ppa's 'could' get you into dependency problems indeed
[14:25] <Vuurdraak_> yeh
[14:26] <lotuspsychje> Vuurdraak_: but its your system, if you really need this version..
[14:26] <Vuurdraak_> i guess the safest route for the moment is upgrading to 16.04 lts
[14:26] <lotuspsychje> Vuurdraak_: from 14.04 you need to ugrade to 16.04 anyway
[14:26] <Vuurdraak_> ahhh xD
[14:27] <Vuurdraak_> okay problem solved then for the comming 2 years :D
[14:27] <lotuspsychje> Vuurdraak_: what is this magic openshot feature you need anway?
[14:28] <Vuurdraak_> good one, i dont know anymore what it was, i think certain filters/transitions are not in the v2
[14:28] <Vuurdraak_> v1 has more options in that sence unles stuff changed
[14:30] <tomreyn> courrier: you will probably need to run it in a temrinal to find out what is actually going wrong there
[14:30] <tomreyn> *terminal
[14:30] <lotuspsychje> Vuurdraak_: take a look at recent bugs maybe you can find something relevant? https://bugs.launchpad.net/openshot
[14:31] <tomreyn> Vuurdraak_: have you considered a different application for your video editing needs?
[14:31] <Vuurdraak_> there are over 50 effects in v1
[14:31] <Vuurdraak_> and only 14 effects in v2
[14:31] <Vuurdraak_> in my versions
[14:31] <Vuurdraak_> just counted them
[14:31] <Vuurdraak_> i always use v1 :)
[14:31] <tomreyn> !enter | Vuurdraak_
[14:32] <Vuurdraak_> i got more rendering programs but i like openshot v1.4.3 the most even though it is buggy sometimes
[14:33] <tomreyn> your version being the one which is available in ubuntu 14.04? this will be very old. however, it appears that many people prefer other editors such as shotcut over openshot nowadays.
[14:33] <Vuurdraak_> i dont know shotcut
[14:33] <tomreyn> i suggest create an 18.04 live / installer, and test it there.
[14:34] <ducasse> might be time to start learning another program if v1 is no longer maintained
[14:34] <tomreyn> and if you like it, either backup and install 18.04 from scratch, or, less preferrable, do the LTS upgrades
[14:35] <tomreyn> there is also Kdenlive
[14:36] <Vuurdraak_> since openshot v1 is still in the 16.04 repo i will upgrade the OS only to 16.04 lts for now, i already have a live usb where i can boot to 18.04 lts also i got 18.04 lts on my laptop, i will take a look at shotcut from there
[14:38] <qwebirc72513> ?
[14:38] <tomreyn> !
[14:38] <Vuurdraak_> ;
[14:39] <Vuurdraak_> okay going down for reboot , the software update pannel suddenly only is showing a bar and not the rest of the window, see if a boot helps o7 thansk for all the great tips again o/
[14:47] <courrier> tomreyn: can I run Déjà Dup in some verbose mode to get the exact same command line maybe?
[14:47] <courrier> That would also be handy so that I don't struggle with encryption keys and stuff
[14:49] <tomreyn> courrier: deja dup uses duplicity, which is a command line utility, which surely has more options.
[14:50] <tomreyn> courrier: but just opening deja dup from a terminal may already make it print more information on where it's failing (to the terminal)
[14:51] <courrier> Ah true, the terminal might be a good start.

[15:15] <mra90> where I can find a source code of BIOS for my board?
[15:16] <lotuspsychje> !biosupdate | mra90
[15:17] <ducasse> mra90: you probably can't, and it's not ontopic here
[15:19] <mra90> lotuspsychje: my question is different
[15:19] <mra90> I don;t want to make an update I want to study source code of it
[15:19] <mra90> ducasse: so what about the documentation on which base I could write my own?
[15:20] <blackflow> mra90: look up libreboot.org, if you want to study the source of a BIOS
[15:21] <mra90> blackflow: looks nice, thanks!
[15:27] <mra90> blackflow: the only problem is they don't support the HW I own ;D
[15:31] <ducasse> mra90: try finding a more appropriate channel with !alis, it's offtopic here

[15:38] <venik212> When I use google-chrome or google-chrome-stable the UI font is TINY.  I found no way of enlarging it-- can anyone help?  Lubuntu 18.10 LXQt.
[15:41] <tomreyn> venik212: use chromium-browser
[15:45] <fleabeard> when using networkctl status it doesn't list my dns server. It shows my ip and gateway only. Any way I can view the dns I'm currently using?
[15:46] <fleabeard> additionally, it says "WARNING: systemd-networkd is not running, output will be incomplete." at the top, not sure what that's on about.
[15:48] <fleabeard> doing cat /etc/resolv.conf it only outputs my nameserver :/
[15:50] <tomreyn> fleabeard: networkctl is a systemd utility, can be used with systemd-networkd. you are probably using network-manager instead (running a desktop?). if so, use "nmcli" instead.
[15:50] <Reepicheep> Has anyone seen unattended-upgrades remove packages?  https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/CjptsSVBK6/
[15:50] <fleabeard> tomreyn, that worked, thanks!
[15:50] <Reepicheep> this is not good when it removes stuff like freeipa-client and bind9 :|
[15:51] <leftyfb> fleabeard: nmcli device show
[15:52] <tomreyn> Reepicheep: a matter of how you configured it, i guess.

[16:12] <qwebirc33370> Greetings.  I'm somewhat new to Ubuntu as I'm trying to switch a home media server over from Windows.  My mainenance/install bench uses a 40inch tv as a monitor which makes the initial work after install all but impossible to see.  Is there a way to change the resolution at the prompt?
[16:14] <BluesKaj> impossible to see..how?
[16:14] <qwebirc33370> impossible as in I practically have to climb on the bench to get close enough to read the tiny text
[16:16] <traekili> maybe checkout xrandr
[16:17] <BluesKaj> systems settings> fonts
[16:17] <qwebirc33370> I have no GUI after the fresh iI have no GUI yet
[16:18] <qwebirc33370> Bleh, sorry.  I have no GUI yet.  I'm in the process of installing some base functions I found from googling.  I'm just trying to make the command prompt work a little easier on my eyes
[16:21] <ioria> qwebirc33370, you can boot with 'nomodeset'
[16:22] <fleabeard> !nomodeset | qwebirc33370
[16:23] <qwebirc33370> I will try.  thank you
[16:24] <ioria> qwebirc33370, otherwise you need to edit your /etc/default/grub configuration
[16:36] <fleabeard> anyone know if you can get the screenshot applet that is used in ubuntu budgie and install it on another version of ubuntu? Like vanilla ubuntu?
[16:37] <lotuspsychje> fleabeard: check the packagename from system monitor?
[16:37] <podivilov> Hi all!
[16:37] <fleabeard> lotuspsychje, I got annoyed with budgie's broken panel and went back to vanilla ubuntu so I don't have it installed to check :(
[16:38] <OerHeks> that package might pull in the whole desktop
[16:38] <OerHeks> so, carefull what you do
[16:38] <lotuspsychje> welcome podivilov how can we help you?
[16:39] <lotuspsychje> fleabeard: apt-cache doesnt show any budgie screenshot tool, so as OerHeks suggests it might be in another package that pulls more
[16:40] <leonardus> is there a way to check within the OS if my RAM is running in dual channel?
[16:40] <OerHeks> fleabeard, just install gnome-screenshot
[16:41] <lotuspsychje> leonardus: maybe try: sudo inxi -mxxx
[16:41] <fleabeard> I was really looking for something that had the same functionality of the budgie screenshot applet (in particular to its ability to upload to imgur right from the app itself)
[16:43] <lotuspsychje> fleabeard: try shutter or flameshot perhaps (didnt test myself)
[16:44] <ducasse> fleabeard: the budgie tool might not be a separate executable as such, but maybe (part of) a library
[16:46] <fleabeard> yeah, that's what I'm thinking since it is only available in the budgie applet menu and not in the usual repo's. I'll give shutter a shot since it seems to have similar functionality, thanks!
[16:49] <ioria> fleabeard, in the 16.04 ppa, it's a separate package: https://launchpad.net/~budgie-remix/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
[16:49] <lotuspsychje> nice find ioria
[16:49] <rapidwave> I can't seem to get either MySQL nor MariaDB to have /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
[16:50] <ioria> but i don't think you installed budgie with that ppa, right ? fleabeard
[16:50] <fleabeard> ioria, right, when I was running budgie it was from an install of ubuntu-budgie
[16:50] <ioria> fleabeard, so it's embedded
[16:52] <fleabeard> ioria, ah okay, does that mean I can't get that same applet on another system outside of budgie?
[16:52] <ioria> fleabeard, if there's no pkg, associated you can clone from github
[16:53] <fleabeard> ioria, sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm still very new to linux. But how would I verify if there is no pkg associated? I'm assuming their aren't at this point, but am not really sure.
[16:53] <ioria> fleabeard, apt-cache search budgie-screenshot-applet
[16:54] <Deihmos> just installed ubuntu. now i have to find a way to get rid of the purple / brown colors
[16:54] <ioria> fleabeard, unless it changed it's name
[16:54] <Deihmos> is there a built in setitng to do it ?
[16:54] <ioria> *its
[16:54] <OerHeks> Deihmos, systemsettings, go wild!
[16:54] <fleabeard> ioria, thanks, tried that and nothing came back, so I guess it's safe to assume I'd need to clone it from github?
[16:55] <Deihmos> i did  not see a setting to change the colors but i will try again
[16:55] <OerHeks> install some theme?
[16:55] <Deihmos> not really interested in messing around with 3rd party themes
[16:56] <OerHeks> there *are* more themes in the repos, install synaptic, a much more detailed softwarecenter
[16:57] <Deihmos> ok
[16:57] <ioria> fleabeard, theorically, but if it's integrated in the budgie calendar thing, might be useless
[16:57] <pikapika> hi
[16:57] <pikapika> In xubuntu, is the altgr key as a method of typing special characters disabled by default?
[16:58] <fleabeard> ioria, dang, it's such a nice looking/functioning app :( Thanks for helping me out though!
[16:58] <ducasse> pikapika: depends on keyboard layout
[16:59] <pikapika> ok the keyboard settings has the system default selected
[17:00] <ioria> fleabeard, no problem, another  silly (and dangerous) thing you can try is this ppa; and only install budgie-screenshot-applet ; https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntubudgie/+archive/ubuntu/backports
[17:00] <ducasse> fleabeard: if there is a package in the ppa you could install that, but it might drag in other stuff
[17:01] <ioria> fleabeard, frankly, i'am pessimistic
[17:01] <fleabeard> ioria, I'll give it a shot for science!
[17:01] <ioria> ok :þ
[17:01] <ducasse> good luck :)
[17:03] <fleabeard> oh God, this was a huge mistake...
[17:03] <fleabeard> it somehow installed Windows 10!
[17:03] <fleabeard> haha j/k
[17:04] <pikapika> ducasse
[17:05] <fleabeard> ioria, okay, so I installed that ppa and did an apt install budgie-screenshot-applet, and it says its installed yet I dunno where it's at lol
[17:05] <fleabeard> I don't /think/ it brought in anything else nasty
[17:05] <ducasse> pikapika: look if there is a layout with the same name as your current one, plus 'international'
[17:06] <pikapika> how'd I find my current name?
[17:06] <ducasse> fleabeard: do 'dpkg -L budgie-screenshot-applet,' to see which files it installed
[17:07] <ducasse> pikapika: it should be listed where you select keyboard layout, i  don't use gnome
[17:07] <pikapika> It is XFCE
[17:07] <ducasse> i don't use that either :)
[17:08] <fleabeard> ducasse, https://pastebin.com/ZXqCCHui is what that shows
[17:08]  * OerHeks stopped visiting pastebin.com
[17:09] <ducasse> fleabeard: doesn't look like it's a separate binary
[17:09] <fleabeard> ducasse, oof, alright. At least we gave it a shot hehe
[17:12] <ducasse> fleabeard: just remove the package and the ppa
[17:15] <ioria> fleabeard, probably; it's a plugin
[17:15] <ioria> fleabeard, file /usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet
[17:16] <ducasse> that looks like a directory
[17:17] <ioria> right
[17:17] <ioria> fleabeard, file /usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet/ScreenshotApplet.plugin
[17:18] <fleabeard> ioria, sorry for being daft, but does that mean I can run it? It being a plugin and all?
[17:19] <ioria> fleabeard, file /usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet/ScreenshotApplet.plugin     (and paste the output)
[17:19] <ducasse> let's find out :)
[17:19] <pikapika> Where does xubuntu search its xorg.conf?
[17:19] <fleabeard> oh, okay just a tick
[17:19] <pikapika> I am reading man xorg.conf
[17:19] <ducasse> pikapika: there is none by default
[17:19] <pikapika> but the ones I found are from a location not given there
[17:19] <pikapika> ah
[17:19] <pikapika> so how do you set the things that normally xorg.conf is used for
[17:20] <pikapika> (just to clarify, I am using a version with x not with the new window system)
[17:20] <ducasse> pikapika: you can add snippets to /etc/C11/xorg.conf.d
[17:20] <fleabeard> ioria, do I paste "file /usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet/ScreenshotApplet.plugin" in terminal to run the plugin?
[17:20] <ducasse> make that X11
[17:21] <pavlos> leonardus: I did "sudo dmidecode | grep Channel" and got ChannelA-DIMM0 and ChannelB-DIMM0
[17:21] <ioria> fleabeard, nope,to know what that is
[17:21] <ducasse> fleabeard: no, run that and show us the output
[17:22] <fleabeard> oh, gotcha > file /usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet/ScreenshotApplet.plugin/usr/lib/budgie-desktop/plugins/budgie-screenshot-applet/ScreenshotApplet.plugin: UTF-8 Unicode text
[17:22] <ioria> fleabeard, no way
[17:22] <pikapika> hmm
[17:22] <pikapika> it seems to have a complex organization with files spread over many directories
[17:22] <pikapika> and
[17:23] <pikapika> the originals seem to be in /usr/share
[17:23] <ioria> fleabeard, "applet" in Budgie is the same as "extension" on GNOME
[17:23] <Forkbomb_> Hey everyone! Is it okay if I ask for help with something, or am I wrong here for that?
[17:24] <pikapika> Don't ask to ask
[17:24] <Forkbomb_> Hahaha okay
[17:24] <ducasse> Forkbomb_: if it's for ubuntu, sure
[17:24] <fleabeard> ioria, ah, welp! We tried :) Maybe someday some cool dude with great hair will port that sexy screenshot applet over so the rest of the world can use it outside of budgie :P
[17:25] <ioria> fleabeard, might be
[17:26] <Forkbomb_> I have a pretty interesting problem: I just installed Bionic on a Dell Latitude 7212 Rugged Extreme, and the keyboard cover that ships with it seems to, well, interface with the tablet via PC2. In WIn10 I have no problems with it, but in Ubuntu, as soon as I disconnect and reconnect the keyboard or suspend and thaw the tablet, the input from the keyboard cover is completely ignored, save for the touchpad, which is still fully func
[17:26] <Forkbomb_> I have to reboot the system to get my keyboard back
[17:26] <Forkbomb_> hwinfo --keyboard lists it, before and after the disconnect, so nothing seems to change there
[17:27] <Forkbomb_> Any ideas where I should look next?
[17:27] <ducasse> Forkbomb_: check dmesg or journalctl
[17:27] <Forkbomb_> I'll get you the dmesg entries regarding the keyboard, I already saved them - one moment
[17:29] <Forkbomb_> How can I communicate the dmesg to you? Paste it here, or is there a preferred method?
[17:29] <ducasse> !paste
[17:29] <Forkbomb_> Thank you! Here you go: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/J4tS6BkzPJ/
[17:31] <ducasse> are there any acpi errors in dmesg?
[17:31] <Forkbomb_> How may I check that for you?
[17:33] <Forkbomb_> This is what dmesg | grep acpi yielded: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bY8mTSsyPX/
[17:39] <ducasse> ok, so no to that. if it's ps2, that would react to power being cut
[17:43] <Forkbomb_> Well, I have no way of confirming whether it actually is PS/2 - I assumed it seeing how the device is initially detected via the i8042
[17:44] <Forkbomb_> The cover connects to the tablet via this connection that I can't really identify: https://i.dell.com/sites/imagecontent/products/PublishingImages/latitude-12-7212-tablet/1512_PDP_Latitude_7212_Rugged_Extreme_Tablet_mod5.jpg

[17:50] <xubuntu27w> Greetings.  I am a newbie to Linux.  I recently installed Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic).  After doing so, I no longer see my wireless and bletooth connections.  Please, if possible, how do I solve this issue?
[17:51] <mfoolb> vlad1777d: well you could start finding out brand and model
[17:51] <mfoolb> vlad1777d: then checking if supported
[17:51] <mfoolb> vlad1777d: if not searching for drivers
[17:56] <fleabeard> I have a text file with a bunch of website addresses listed in it. Example google.com on one line, bing.com on the next line. Any way I can in one fell swoop add the www. prefix to the beginning of each website in that list via a terminal command of any way? So I'll have www.google.com on one line and www.bing.com on the other?
[17:56] <elias_a> Daughters 18.04 installation nagged about disk space being filled and does not boot now. Looking with Gparted root partition has over 1 gb empty space. What to do?
[17:57] <elias_a> Regular boot sequence leads to black screen.
[17:58] <elias_a> I would understand a full root partitition would cause this but now I cannot understand the reason.
[17:58] <mfoolb> fleabeard: many ways.. it could be good to start looking at sed command - super powerful
[17:59] <fleabeard> mfoolb, I was just looking at that now hah thanks
[18:00] <elias_a> The usual problem in these cases is a full root partition but as I said - over 1 gb of empty space there...
[18:00] <mfoolb> fleabeard: you are welcome
[18:03] <courrier> tomreyn: I got the duplicity command by ps-aux-ing Déjà Dup while it was running... but when I try to run it by myself there's a bad descriptor error http://paste.debian.net/1069955/
[18:05] <fleabeard> mfoolb, would you happen to know how I can add a wildcard with sed? I think I have to escape a "\" but am not sure. Example: If I use sed 's/^/(^|\.)/' list it adds (^|.) as the prefix, but I actually need it to use (^|\.)
[18:10] <qwebirc17040> Hi, I am wondering if i could get some help. apt-update is having trouble resolving. I have tried to fix this by adjusting any DNS setting i could think of but it still fails
[18:11] <mfoolb> fleabeard: I don't understand.. use for example something like this: sed -i -e 's/^/www./' testfile
[18:12] <OerHeks> qwebirc23321, and what error do you get?
[18:12] <mfoolb> fleabeard: this should do what you ask but go deep on sed is really one the THE tools
[18:12] <OerHeks> + on what ubuntu version, what mirror
[18:13] <fleabeard> mfoolb, sorry, the list I have have a list of websites in it. But I need for them all to be prefixed with (^|\.) so like this> (^|\.)google.com. I can get this far with it (^|.)google.com I think it's escaping that "\" in my prefix when I need it.
[18:13] <mfoolb> fleabeard: try the line I sent
[18:13] <OerHeks> oh, too manu qwebirc<numbers>, choose a name please
[18:14] <Deihmos> i wonder why ubuntu made it so diffcult to change the login screen image
[18:16] <OerHeks> Deihmos, it is not, install gnome-tweak tool and have fun
[18:17] <fleabeard> mfoolb, that prefixes everything with a www., however I need it to prefix with (^|\.) instead. If that makes sense.
[18:17] <Deihmos> the tool does not have an option to change the login screen from the purple
[18:17] <OerHeks> it gives options for gnome shell extentions too, if you install that feature
[18:17] <OerHeks> yes it does
[18:17] <Deihmos> lock screen and background only
[18:18] <OerHeks> not sure what you are looking for then

[18:19] <kasper1> Can someone help me please? I can't get apt-get update to resolve any sources. After uninstalling a pi-hole which wasn't working properly the DNS on my ubuntu 18 machine is completely messed up. No solution i have found online seems to fix it :(
[18:21] <mfoolb> fleabeard: use \ to escape the characters you need
[18:22] <fleabeard> mfoolb, got it sorted now lol, I wasn't aware you can escape it that way. My regex expression-fu is very low. Thanks mate \o
[18:23] <OerHeks> kasper1, go into networksettings, and make a new connection, dhcp default
[18:23] <fleabeard> kasper1, are you chatting from the affected machine currently?
[18:23] <mfoolb> fleabeard: glad it worked out for you
[18:24] <kasper1> @fleabeard, no from a laptop. I am SSH'd into it. It's a headless server
[18:24] <OerHeks> Deihmos, so you found out yourself, good find
[18:24] <Deihmos> should have been a much easier solution
[18:24] <kasper1> OerHeks: it's a headless server... i have created a yaml in /etc/netplan with DHCP. Still no DNS
[18:24] <Deihmos> i guess most people just leave it the way it is
[18:24] <kasper1> can't dig and can't apt-get update
[18:25] <kasper1> also tried a static yaml google dns cloudflare etc. etc. tried many still no joy
[18:25] <kasper1> cannot get anything to resolve... something somewhere is probably still pointing to the pihole which no longer exists
[18:25] <compdoc> kasper1, show us your yaml file with pastebin.com
[18:26] <OerHeks> rather paste.ubuntu.com please
[18:26] <kasper1> ack
[18:26] <compdoc> heh
[18:27] <kasper1> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4ZZByZbPHf/
[18:27] <kasper1> it works if i apply with debug
[18:27] <kasper1> ie there are no errors
[18:28] <compdoc> that seems ok. if you type ip a, do you see ipv6 addresses?
[18:29] <compdoc> your dhcp server hands out a local dns service, or some dns service?
[18:29] <kasper1> local but i tried changing that
[18:30] <kasper1> I do see ipv6 which is weird since ipv6 shouldn't be enabled
[18:30] <kasper1> also i see now the docker0 iface is state down also weird
[18:30] <compdoc> yeah, they tend to use ipv6 now, so unless its setup right it, things dont work
[18:31] <kasper1> I haven't setup a ipv6 connection on my router... so there's no ipv6 outside connection
[18:31] <compdoc> took me a log time to get ipv6 right
[18:31] <kasper1> But it worked upto today when i got rid of the pihole
[18:32] <kasper1> I am hoping to have retired and spend my days fishing by the time ipv4 actually stops existing :D
[18:33] <kasper1> bit like climate change there are believers and non believers :P
[18:33] <kasper1> @compdoc do you have a suggestion how to fix this?
[18:34] <compdoc> search how to actually disable ipv6 on your version
[18:34] <compdoc> or setup ipv6
[18:35] <compdoc> there may be other ways to get it to prefer ipv4
[18:38] <Forkbomb_> Hey everyone! I'm still trying to make progress on https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2413347 - let me know if you're interested in helping me solve this.
[18:40] <kasper1> @compdoc thanks! but still not working... disabled ipv6 like so https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-disable-ipv6-address-on-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux
[18:42] <compdoc> so the ipv6 addresses no longer appear?
[18:45] <jeremyb> kasper1: You will still have 1 IPv6 address in ifconfig
[18:46] <kasper1> @compdoc no they don't. There is no ifconfig
[18:46] <kasper1> there is only stupid netplan
[18:46] <kasper1> major PITA
[18:46] <compdoc> netplan is pretty good when you learn it
[18:46] <kasper1> I have a feeling it's not ipv6 tho... but not sure what else it could be
[18:46] <compdoc> what does route say?
[18:47] <kasper1> Yeah... i am sure it is... but a moment like this is not the right timing to learn new stuff :P
[18:48] <kasper1> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/pbvZ3mgdSn/
[18:49] <compdoc> that looks good. can you ping the router/gateway?
[18:50] <compdoc> oh, the ip addresses arent right
[18:50] <compdoc> nm, thats the docker stuff
[18:51] <kasper1> @annabelle:~$ ping router.home PING router.home (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from router.home (192.168.1.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.564 ms 64 bytes from router.home (192.168.1.1): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.571 ms
[18:51] <kasper1> so local resolution works
[18:51] <kasper1> @annabelle:~$ ping google.com ping: google.com: Temporary failure in name resolution
[18:52] <Deihmos> what is the purpose of releasing 18.10 when a new release is just around the corer
[18:52] <compdoc> can you ping 172.217.2.4
[18:53] <kasper1> yes
[18:53] <compdoc> thats google
[18:53] <compdoc> so dns doesnt work
[18:53] <kasper1> no but internet connection works... just not name resolving
[18:53] <OerHeks> Deihmos, any 6 months there is a release, is it not fun?
[18:53] <kasper1> lol
[18:53] <Deihmos> oh
[18:53] <compdoc> your firewall/router is the dns service, so thats not working
[18:54] <OerHeks> stick to LTS, so you get a release any 2 years
[18:54] <Deihmos> better than debian i guess
[18:54] <compdoc> tell the router to forward to 8.8.8.8 or something
[18:54] <kasper1> compdoc: yeah that's the obvious thing here... but i have a bunch of clients that have no issues
[18:54] <kasper1> including this laptop/phones etc. etc.
[18:56] <kasper1> the router is now pointing to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4...
[18:56] <kasper1> still no change
[18:56] <compdoc> have you changed resolv.conf? or was this an upgrade from 16.04, etc?
[18:56] <kasper1> no fresh install... the weird thing is resolv.conf didn't exit
[18:56] <kasper1> and i am not allowed to create it or something
[18:56] <kasper1> when i create it add nameservers i get an error when trying to save
[18:57] <compdoc> I think its a link now, to another directory
[18:57] <kasper1> i figured it was because of the change to netplan etc. so ignored it
[18:58] <kasper1> any idea what directory? info online is hard to find on this well at least accurate and not out of date info
[18:58] <compdoc> let me log into a server
[19:00] <compdoc> lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root      39 Sep  1 10:19 resolv.conf -> ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf
[19:02] <compdoc> if that link wasnt created during the install, then there's no telling what else is broke
[19:05] <kasper1> compdoc: nope it's not there
[19:05] <kasper1> i really do not want to go back to a fresh install
[19:05] <kasper1> this sucks so much
[19:05] <compdoc> sounds like something went wrong. I would start over
[19:05] <compdoc> heh
[19:05] <kasper1> ah man what a PITA
[19:06] <Exterminador> Q: Using Xubuntu 18.04, how do I set writting language to be pt_PT but using fr_FR keyboard layout? I just want this to affect the writting, not system display language
[19:06] <compdoc> use all defaults at install. dont select a bunch of programs to install
[19:06] <compdoc> install stuff later
[19:07] <compdoc> and use apt to install all usdates
[19:07] <compdoc> updates
[19:07] <jeremyb> Exterminador: That might be possible with a custom locale
[19:07] <kasper1> Is there a way to manully install resolvconf? without using apt-get
[19:07] <kasper1> https://github.com/GhostWriters/DockSTARTer/wiki/Pi%E2%80%90hole i used this as pihole it might have messed something up
[19:08] <Exterminador> basically the laptop is a French one and the layout keyboard is very different from the portuguese one
[19:11] <Exterminador> to write a letter like "ã", I would to AltGr+2 - a; but it doesn't work, because as soon as I hit AltGR+2 it puts the "~" symbol
[19:11] <BluesKaj> kasper1, try adding your DNS nameserver to /etc/systemd/resolved.conf , DNS=8.8.8.8 and FallbackDNS=8.8.4.4
[19:12] <Exterminador> s/would to/would do/
[19:12] <kasper1> BluesKaj: that file is empty
[19:12] <kasper1> need to create it?
[19:13] <Exterminador> don't Ubuntu 18.04 (if that's the one in use) uses netplan for that?
[19:15] <Exterminador> guess tha's for servers only, not personal computers
[19:17] <BluesKaj> kasper1, hmm, maybe since you're using network-manager instead of the the interfaces file and ifupdown
[19:17] <kasper1> no it's a server
[19:17] <kasper1> not using network-manager afaik
[19:18] <kasper1> ifupdown has been replaced by the great and brilliant netplan right?
[19:19] <Exterminador> kasper1: if it's a server usually should be netplan
[19:19] <Exterminador> at least it's in my VPS
[19:19] <kasper1> yeah... so i am lost i don't know wtf is going on but something is messed up good
[19:19] <ducasse> kasper1: well, by network manager or systemd-networkd, yes. netplan just does config management
[19:20] <BluesKaj> kasper1, commented the renderer network-manager in netplan
[19:21] <kasper1> renderer: networkd
[19:22] <Charlie4friend> hi, i am new to linux :)
[19:22] <Charlie4friend> I am following instructions to fix my bluetooth issue, from this thread https://askubuntu.com/questions/632336/bluetooth-broadcom-43142-isnt-working
[19:22] <Charlie4friend> I am stuck on how to proceed through the latter half of step 1 and step 2,
[19:22] <Charlie4friend> can anyone advise, or is there a NOOB guide somewhere...?
[19:22] <Charlie4friend> Thank you :)
[19:22] <jeremyb> Charlie4friend: winterheart github site
[19:23] <BluesKaj> kasper1, also I installed ifupdown
[19:23] <Charlie4friend> jeremyb yes i found this there...
[19:24] <kasper1> BluesKaj: i can't install anything atm.
[19:24] <kasper1> i can't resolve anything at all
[19:24] <jeremyb> Charlie4friend: find the file at github that matches your USB ID for the bluetooth, copy it to /lib/firmware/brcm, check dmesg | grep firm  to find what the system expects the file to be named
[19:25] <Charlie4friend> jeremyb i get this
[19:25] <Charlie4friend>  dmesg | grep firm

[19:34] <kreyren> How does Livepatch working on ubuntu?
[19:34] <kreyren> is it able to patch kernel without reboot?
[19:34] <kreyren> *patch and use it
[19:35] <tomreyn> kreyren: yes, that's it's very purpose.
[19:35] <kreyren> tomreyn: more info about the process?
[19:36] <kreyren> assuming it's open-source
[19:36] <tomreyn> it's a canonical product, there is info on it online
[19:37] <kreyren> where can i get more info then?
[19:37] <tomreyn> !livepatch
[19:38] <kreyren> ty
[19:38] <kreyren> it uses remote server to livepatch?
[19:39] <tomreyn> the patches are downloaded from a remote server, yes.
[19:40] <tomreyn> so are the kernel images you probaby use, and most of the software you run.
[19:44] <kreyren> tomreyn: but like the patching is made on the remote server? based on gentoo their live patching requires server to emulate libs(?)
[19:47] <tomreyn> kreyren: patching takes place on your system
[19:47] <kreyren> interesting, ty for info
[19:47] <tomreyn> preparing the patches takes place on canonicals' systems
[19:48] <tomreyn> kreyren: that's also why you can only use this with the standard kernel images ubuntu provides
[19:49] <tomreyn> kreyren: just give it a try, download and inspect the snap, and you'll know how it works exactly. there's a free usage tier.
[19:49] <tomreyn> but in general we don't support caononical services here, you should get support from them directly.
[19:49] <kreyren> ok ty
[19:52] <qkqk99> is there a cd-until command? like if im at "a/b/c/d/e/f" i want to say "cd-until c" and that should put me back to "a/b/c"
[19:52] <qkqk99> i see myself in need of this command a lot
[19:58] <lunatikos> re, jmerce pour l'aide =)
[20:19] <Forkbomb_> Hey everyone! I just installed 18.03 Bionic on my tablet, and have a problem with it's keyboard cover: from boot, the keyboard and integrated touchpad work perfectly, but if I suspend/thaw or disconnect and reconnect, the keystrokes are ignored, and only the touchpad keeps working. Have to force-reboot the system to keep using it every time I close the tablet at the moment
[20:20] <Forkbomb_> How can I investigate this issue?
[20:22] <Beast_> hi all
[20:24] <Beast_> tilda just closed duing an upgrade evoked through itself. can i just kill apt and restart it? its still running in the background.
[20:26] <qwebirc27950> Hi all, i'm trying to run ubuntu core on my NAS, and have trouble logging in when booting from USB. Even though i added my public key to ubuntuOne, when connecting over SSH i still get asked for a password...
[20:27] <leftyfb> #snappy | qwebirc27950
[20:27] <leftyfb> #snap | qwebirc27950
[20:27] <leftyfb> !snappy | qwebirc27950
[20:27] <qwebirc27950> thanks ubottu :-)
[20:28] <qwebirc27950> lets see...
[20:28] <qwebirc27950> join #snappy
[20:28] <qwebirc27950> na
[20:28] <OerHeks> you should login with password, and change the sshd deamon
[20:28] <qwebirc27950> ya, but which password? the standard user doesn't have one
[20:28] <leftyfb> OerHeks: that's not a thing with Ubuntu Core
[20:29] <qwebirc27950> xactly
[20:29] <leftyfb> qwebirc27950: type: /join #snappy
[20:29] <qwebirc27950> thanks, did that, see you on the other side (maybe)
[20:32] <Barones> how can I see boot long while booting?
[20:33] <OerHeks> Barones, remove quiet and splash from the grubline
[20:33] <OerHeks> !grub
[20:34] <Barones> OerHeks: is there any way to do display it while booting? I can't access to OS
[20:35] <OerHeks> hold shift @ boot, and press 'e' to edit the grubline, easy to do
[20:36] <OerHeks> sometimes 'nomodeset' helps if you do not get to login/black screen
[20:36] <OerHeks> !nomodeset
[20:38] <Pandadub_Lostshi> thanks OerHeks
[20:38] <OerHeks> have fun!
[20:41] <Forkbomb_> Do you know what I could to to diganose my keyboard issue?
[20:41] <OerHeks> Forkbomb_, i searched around, no other ubuntu nor linux user has asked about the same issue, Dell Latitude 7212 & keyboard cover
[20:41] <jeremyb> Forkbomb_: check syslog to see what happens when things quit working
[20:42] <Forkbomb_> I'm sorry, jeremyb, how would I do that?
[20:43] <jeremyb> Forkbomb_: If you use a Live ISO, you should be able to mount the install and look at the files in /var/log
[20:44] <Forkbomb_> jeremyb: Can I only do this through a live ISO, or also while running Ubuntu normally?
[20:45] <jeremyb> Forkbomb_: you can use the install to look at the syslog and other logs
[20:45] <OerHeks> type logs in dash, and the logs util shows up
[20:46] <Forkbomb_> jeremyb: I'll restart my system to get the keyboard working again, tail syslog and see if something comes up as I reconnect the cover
[20:46] <Forkbomb_> I will be back shortly, thank you
[21:02] <Forkbomb_> I have returned. I will now commence testing with the keyboard
[21:04] <Forkbomb_> Sadly, the syslog does not seem to react to my re-attaching of the keyboard
[21:05] <qwebirc69286> Hi, i am still struggeling with not being able to resolve any domains due to a DNS issue. Is there a way to use IP addresses for /etc/apt/sources.list instead of the URL's this would help so i can install additional packages to troubleshoot. I have digged some of the URL's but get errors about security and TLS handshakes
[21:17] <mra90> what is the best tool to prepare boot from flash disk (pendrive)?
[21:20] <OerHeks> !usb
[21:20] <OerHeks> depends on what os, linux, mac, windows ..
[21:21] <mra90> OerHeks: thanks
[21:42] <asenssy> hi there
[21:42] <asenssy> could someone advice how to make "find" to search for files less than 200b
[21:44] <asenssy> find -type f -size 200b (or less, not more)
[21:44] <OerHeks> easy to find, such action find . -type f -size -200c
[21:44] <asenssy> thanks
[21:45] <OerHeks> b would be 512-byte blocks
[21:45] <asenssy> so "-200c" is for less than 200b, how can i make range, lets say from 200b to 500b
[21:47] <tomreyn> think abou tit a little, read the man page, it'll get obvious
[21:47] <rk3y> hi can one skilled unix scripter explain how this ( command ) for one-liners is called and how to get it to work? example here: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/one-liner-adblock-using-pi-hole-source-list-unbound-and-dnsmasq/23584
[21:48] <leftyfb> rk3y: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[21:48] <leftyfb> rk3y: pastebin the output of lsb_release -sa
[21:48] <rk3y> does it matter for the name of this command?
[21:48] <leftyfb> rk3y: this is an Ubuntu support channel. You might be better served in #openwrt or #raspberrypi or ##linux
[21:49] <rk3y> leftyfb: kk thx
[21:49] <leftyfb> rk3y: you could also try #bash
[21:55] <mra90> I have a problem booting ubuntu using virtualbox
[21:55] <mra90> "Raw-mode is unavailable courtesy of Hyper-V"
[21:56] <mra90> whats wrong?
[21:56] <OerHeks> hyperv issue, not ubuntu
[21:59] <mra90> OerHeks: quick googling reveled that I need to enable virtualization in bios, possible?
[22:00] <asenssy> yes do that first
[22:01] <OerHeks> a sionple search gives tons of posts, i have no idea what would be the right answer, try ##windows
