mudkipso I'm using vagrant/virtualbox to run bionic64, and I'm having issues getting a USB serial modem to work00:12
mudkipsudo modprobe cdc-acm ; modprobe: FATAL: Module cdc-acm not found in directory /lib/modules/4.15.0-46-generic00:12

mudkiphow do I get the kernel module loaded, since modprobe isn't working00:15
OerHeksthat would be a virtualbox issue, usb passthrough00:18
tomreynmudkip: sudo apt install linux-modules-extra-$(uname -r)00:24
mudkiphow do I know the issue is with the hypervisor, and not with the VM itself00:24
mudkipbecause the VM can see the hardware, and virtualbox claims it's passed through00:24
mudkipit just isnt loading as a tty device00:24
tomreynyou just dont have the module installed, yet.00:24

zzz_Hi does anyone know what compositor Ubuntu 18.10 uses by default, is it Compiz or Mutter? And does anyone know how to disable Vsync?01:27
tomreynmutter. how you disable vsync depends on your graphics driver, which depends on your hardware and chocies you may have made.01:28
tomreynthis will tell about your graphics drivers: lspci -knn | grep -A3 VGA | nc termbin.com 999901:30
zzz_AMDGPU/mesa, RX580. So the compositor doesn't handle Vsync? Moving windows on the desktop shows it has vsync enabled, running a standalone WM like openbox I can move windows around and get tearing (which I want), which shows Vsync is disabled01:30
zzz_Need vsync disabled for gaming01:31
tomreynhttps://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ConfigurationOptions/ "Synchronization with vertical refresh (swap intervals)"01:32
zzz_Will unity/mutter actually respect ~/.drirc?01:33
tomreynunity? you asked about a default ubuntu 18.1001:33
tomreynthat's gnome-shell01:34
zzz_Is the default DE that uses no longer called Unity?01:34
tomreyn!releasenotes | zzz_: not for a while now. you should read release notes01:34
ubottuzzz_: not for a while now. you should read release notes: For release notes of a given Ubuntu release, please refer to the 'Docs' column on the 'List of releases' table at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases01:34
zzz_I wish there was an option to easily globally disable vsync. I don't remember the XML spaghetti with vblank_mode=0 to put into ~/.drirc01:35
tomreynif i recall correctly, the change from unity / compiz to gnome-shell / mutter took place with ubuntu 17.1001:35
tomreynit is an environment variable. you can place it in /etc/environment if you want it system-wide01:36
tomreyni'm not sure whether ~/.drirc is actually still used. it may be, not sure.01:37
zzz_I tell my friend to try that and see if it disables vsync01:37
tomreynthe easiest way to test is with glxgears01:37
zzz_I know you can run "vblank_mode=0 glxgears" in a terminal and see it has unlocked fps, but problem would be that the mutter compositor still forces everything through vsync01:38
tomreynnot on my system01:40
tomreynvblank_mode=0 glxgears   -> 57232 frames in 5.0 seconds = 11446.311 FPS01:40
tomreynvblank_mode=1 glxgears   -> 61096 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12219.169 FPS01:41
tomreynoops copy paste bug01:41
tomreynvblank_mode=0 glxgears   -> 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.974 FPS01:41
tomreynvblank_mode=1 glxgears   -> 61096 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12219.169 FPS01:41
tomreynthats correct01:41
zzz_Yes the program runs with unlocked fps but the mutter compositor will force everything through vsync and refresh at your monitor's refresh rate01:42
tomreynmore environment variables you can use: https://www.mesa3d.org/envvars.html01:42
=== tim_ is now known as Guest60007
tomreynonly if you don't run applications full screen, i would think01:43
zzz_True it is supposed to bypass the compositor for fullscreen windows,01:43
tomreyndo you run your graphics heavy applications windowed then?01:44
tomreynif you consider mutter to be an issue in general, you can run a compositor-less desktop environment, or a compositor which does not use graphics acceleration (which is now rare)01:46
zzz_I just don't like Vsync ever personally. This was actually for a friend who installed Ubuntu. I've used openbox myself for years where there's no compositing. Setting vblank_mode=0 in /etc/environment did seem to work though, Vsync is disabled globally now01:47
tomreynthere is gnome-flashback (not sure whether this is supporte don ubuntu), and i suspect lubuntu may have a way to disable a compositor, if there is one (not sure)01:47
tomreynso your friend can now finally run gnome-calculator with the full possible FPS01:48

tomreynNo idea, I recommend reading up on it if it matters.01:52
zzz_Well it would just be a matter of testing it and seeing if it actually does I guess01:52

masterasiaor is that not the use-case for jumphosts06:50
masterasiacan't mitigate, power-outages / dynamic ip from isp. I will go with the vps solution, thank you06:51
ikanoborimasterasia: The openssh-client takes a -J parameter for a 'jump host' but if your internet is being shabby it might be wise to just ssh into your vps and run a terminal multiplexer such as screen or tmux there.06:53
ikanoboriYou can also put these in your ssh-config with the ProxyJump directive.06:54

Peter_GriffinHi guys. I have a strange case. Last night when I left the office my laptop was turned on as I always leave it. This morning I found it turned off. It is impossible to be a power issue because it has a pretty strong batery, the cable is inserted and it goes trough an UPS. Other devices on the same UPS have not been rebooted in days. My OS is Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS. Do you know of any bug in Ubuntu that can cause this? Or should I get paranoid09:06

slingamni'm having trouble enabling ipv6 privacy addresses on ubuntu server11:04
=== tga0 is now known as Guest75251
slingamn /etc/sysctl.d/10-ipv6-privacy.conf ships with these lines:11:05
slingamnnet.ipv6.conf.all.use_tempaddr = 211:05
slingamnnet.ipv6.conf.default.use_tempaddr = 211:05
slingamnbut somehow my actual interface (net.ipv6.conf.ens5.use_tempaddr) comes up with that value set to 011:05
slingamna workaround is to rerun `systemctl restart systemd-sysctl.service` after the network is up11:05
slingamni think it's because systemd isn't enforcing that systemd-sysctl.service loads before systemd-networkd.service, but i'm not sure how to confirm11:10
ryuoslingamn: what are you using for networking?11:11
slingamnsystemd-networkd11:11
ryuoslingamn: instead of netplan?11:11
ryuoyou can configure networkd to do this instead i believe.11:11
ryuosee man systemd.network11:11
slingamnhmm, i have an /etc/netplan11:12
ryuoif you explicitly configured networkd directly11:12
ryuothen go with the networkd approach11:12
ryuootherwise look at netplan11:12
slingamni have an /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml11:12
slingamnthis was handled automatically by the installer i think11:12
ryuohttps://netplan.io/reference11:13
ryuoprobably your best option is to configure netplan.11:13
ryuoslingamn: or, failing that, configure networkd directly and disable netplan.11:14
slingamnif i'm reading the output of `systemctl list-dependencies` correctly, there is no such constraint11:15
ryuoslingamn: so why do you think it's required? configuring the network service itself should suffice.11:17
slingamnthe intent of those sysctls is that they should be applied before the network comes up11:17
ryuoslingamn: ok... then you may need to customize the service.11:18
slingamnactually hmm, i think i'm wrong and the dependency is there11:18

ntzryuo, Captain_Haddock .. thanks for your support .. FYI the problem is/was this: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/1850011:20
slingamnthe default is to override the kernel's setting (that's not confusing at all /s)11:21
ntzwe even didn't install new kernel but I've rather patched memobj-r0drv-linux.c and it works now11:21

fieshis there a way to explicitly install gcc 8.3.0-2ubuntu2 instead of 8.3.0-3ubuntu1 in 19.04?  It seems to me there's a bug in 8.3.0-3ubuntu1 that keeps our project from building, but it might also be some other package that introduced a bug, and I'm trying to pin point it.  Our old CI docker image worked, but when rebuilding it it breaks12:07

fieshyeah well it's not really a 19.04 related question though12:08

yvyzfiesh: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/41086312:09
fieshbut I'll give it a shot there, thanks leftyfb12:09

tomreynah i'm too fast, sorry15:10

realnotyes, let me to install it again (going with 18.1015:13
tomreynyou can run both commands from a temrinal on the installer15:13
tomreynno need to install15:13
tomreyni recommend using ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS rather than 18.10, since it is newer.15:13
tomreynwell the installer's kernel is newer.15:14
tomreynas in 'comes with more recent patches', not as in 'higher version'15:14
realnotSo i go with 18.04?15:15
tomreyn18.04.2 is my recommendation.15:15
tomreynfor *very* new hardware something else may be needed.15:16
realnotok I'm creating the media15:16
realnotthe machine is a p52 chipped with a p2000 nvidia15:16
realnotthe reason I can log-in only with wayland in 18.10 could be related to nouveau driver/xorg issue15:17
tomreynthe output from those above commands, run from an installer, will be more useful / precise15:17
realnottomreyn: how I can run them?15:17
tomreyn!terminal | realnot15:18
ubotturealnot: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. In Unity or GNOME, search the dash for "terminal" and press ENTER. Other desktops: Applications -> System Tools -> Terminal (MATE), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal15:18
realnottomreyn: can I trigger a terminal also during the installation process?15:18
tomreynyou start a terminal, copy and paste these commands, and copy and paste their output here15:18
tomreynyes, i think so. but you'd better do it before15:19
realnoti don't have any OS installed right now15:19
realnotthe installation process fails15:19
tomreynthe ubuntu installer is also a "live system", meaning you can run all kinds of applications from it as if it was a full installation15:19
tomreynwhen booting up the installer it will ask you whether you want to install or try ubuntu. you can select to try it.15:20
MonsieurBonHi all15:20
VimarHi MonsieurBon15:20
realnottomreyn: but only if I chose "try ubunut" insted of "Install ubuntu" during the bootstrap phase15:21
realnotright?15:21
MonsieurBonI think the link to src.zip in openjdk-11 package points to a wrong location. Can I report this somewhere?15:21
tomreynrealnot: that's the recommended way to play with ubuntu applications while you have not installed, yet. technically, running a terminal should also work while you're already installing.15:22
tomreynrealnot: but it could cause the installation to fail in the worst case (if you run some demanding applications or interfere with what the installer does / needs in other ways), so i'm not recommending it.15:23
tomreyni.e. i'm not recommending running the terminal next to an in-progress installation. running it from a live system in "try ubuntu before installing" mode is perfectly fine.15:24

jamie_1the work laptop they gave me turned into a huge headache due to nvme storage, dgpu, and efi only -_- so it to so much tweaking to get it to even boot19:40
nevodkaas for giving me a laptop without the capability for dual monitors...19:40

lordcirthWhy would nvme and efi only be problems?19:40
jamie_1lordcirth: the laptop itself only wanted to let me install to the spindisk, and the bios itself i had to manually go in and add the boot parameter aimed at the usb .efi19:41
jamie_1and nvme is tricky when it comes to laptops sometimes depending on how the hardware manufacture decided to link it with the rest of the system19:42
jamie_1and the dgpu because ubuntu coudlnt figure out what to do with itself so i had to go in and disable hardware acceleration then after install go back in with tty and install the nvidia drivers only. and even then for some odd reason it wouldnt work in xorg only on wayland, which took like 10 different driver version to finnaly get it to work19:43

Looking at lubuntu (not due to hw requirements) but I'd prefer to start with a small base and build up. Is there anything I should be aware of?20:36
OerHeksdeanc, do not use 14.04 lts, as it goed EOL in a month, else have fun !20:37

ubottuThe Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.  The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD).

mra90for test I plugge keyboard and lsusb listed it right away, so that external card is invisible however it works OK - i use it at work22:40
mra90maybe in order to be listed it must be connected to *live* network?22:40

halvardHi. I just download vncserver on my remote ubuntu 18.04. And opened an ssh tunnel with root@server.. I'm successfully conneced and have access to the user interface login page, but when I write the same root password as the ssh connection, it just says I am typing the wrong password22:51
vlttomreyn, OerHeks: Thank you!22:52
tomreyn!noroot | halvard22:53
ubottuhalvard: We do not support setting a root password. You're free to do it on your own machine, but please don't offer instructions on how to set a root password or ask for help with setting it. See !root and !wfm for more information.22:53
tomreynwelcome22:53
halvardtomreyn: I am not changing the root password22:53
tomreynhalvard: you should probably not be logging in as root either22:54
halvardAs it works with my ssh connection, but the ubuntu user interface doesnt accept it. "Sorry, that didn't work. Please try again".22:54
tomreynand root should most likely not login on X22:55
tomreynuse the restricted user account you created when when installing ubuntu, or create another restricted user accoun tto login to.22:56
halvardOkay, got you. There is probably some restriction. The thing is I want to run a blockchain node on my virtual server.. Its running a webserver on root22:56
halvardDoes it matter if I run a blockchain node from another user on the same server?22:57
tomreynit matters in terms of what level of access someone gets when they exploit vulnerabilities in it22:57
tomreyndo you prefere them to get root immediately, or just access to a restricted user account?22:57
tomreynalso if this virtual server is actually a container, root access on this container may mean root access to the host system, too22:58
halvardOf course not. So when I restart the server both the webserver and node will start -- although they are on different users?22:58
OerHeksmaybe X11Forwarding yes and ssh -X server@name is more conveniant, why vnc22:59
tomreynservices (old term: daemons) will usually start either as a restricted user, or as  root, then quickly drop permissions, becoming a restricted user.23:00
tomreynwhich user should be used to run a certain service as is a matter of how you're setting up file system ownership and permissions. there are default restricted (system) users and file system ownerships / permissions for most common services.23:01
tomreyne.g. an apache2 httpd server will be running much as user "www-data"23:02
tomreyna mysql server will mostly run as user "mysql", and access file system objects which are setup to be owned or accessible by this user,23:03
tomreyn!permissions23:03
ubottuAn explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions23:03
halvardThat's right! But how does www-data get logged in when I start the server? I find that confusing23:03
halvardI believe my sense of what a "user" is, might be different than yours23:03
OerHekswww-data is not a user, but  a group permission23:05
tomreynthe first user space process the kernel initiates runs as user root, it will then spawn other processes running under either root or other user accounts23:05
mra90what ubuntu forum is recommended?23:05
tomreynhalvard: run "ps uw 1" to see this process on your system23:06
OerHeksmra90,  the one of your country or ubuntuforums.org23:06
mra90OerHeks: thanks!23:06
OerHeksaskubuntu, launchpad, markshuttleworth.com/biography23:07
Guest94343test23:09
tomreynhalvard: so when you boot your server, commonly the firmware runs the boot loader (grub?), which runs the kernel, which then runs the init process with process ID 1, which then runs other processes, (which may spawn more processes on their own).23:09
tomreynGuest94343: please do your tests elsewhere23:09
Guest94343Is there any program in the repos providing screen recording in GIF format as well as any video format? Or maybe two separate programs are required for this?23:10
tomreynhalvard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_startup_process - current Ubuntu releases (by now all supported releases but 14.04 LTS, which looses support next month) use systemd.23:11
