[00:25] debugging how to at https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/usb/acm.txt [00:25] does Ubuntu not ship the acm driver by default in the server version? [00:26] if this is what you installed, and the package is not installed, then no. [00:59] hi [01:00] :-) [01:06] tomreyn, the -b option on systemctl didnt work for me. This didnt happen on other versions of ubuntu. I have only ever used ubuntu on this computer so i dont know about other distros. My computer is a system76 bonobo from like 6 years back.

And does anyone know how to disable Vsync? [01:28] mutter. how you disable vsync depends on your graphics driver, which depends on your hardware and chocies you may have made. [01:30] this will tell about your graphics drivers: lspci -knn | grep -A3 VGA | nc termbin.com 9999 [01:30] 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 disabled [01:31] Need vsync disabled for gaming [01:32] https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ConfigurationOptions/ "Synchronization with vertical refresh (swap intervals)" [01:33] Will unity/mutter actually respect ~/.drirc? [01:33] unity? you asked about a default ubuntu 18.10 [01:34] that's gnome-shell [01:34] Is the default DE that uses no longer called Unity? [01:34] !releasenotes | zzz_: not for a while now. you should read release notes [01:34] zzz_: 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/Releases [01:35] 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 ~/.drirc [01:35] if i recall correctly, the change from unity / compiz to gnome-shell / mutter took place with ubuntu 17.10 [01:36] it is an environment variable. you can place it in /etc/environment if you want it system-wide [01:37] i'm not sure whether ~/.drirc is actually still used. it may be, not sure. [01:37] I tell my friend to try that and see if it disables vsync [01:37] the easiest way to test is with glxgears [01:38] 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 vsync [01:40] not on my system [01:40] vblank_mode=0 glxgears -> 57232 frames in 5.0 seconds = 11446.311 FPS [01:41] vblank_mode=1 glxgears -> 61096 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12219.169 FPS [01:41] oops copy paste bug [01:41] vblank_mode=0 glxgears -> 300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.974 FPS [01:41] vblank_mode=1 glxgears -> 61096 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12219.169 FPS [01:41] thats correct [01:42] Yes the program runs with unlocked fps but the mutter compositor will force everything through vsync and refresh at your monitor's refresh rate [01:42] more environment variables you can use: https://www.mesa3d.org/envvars.html === tim_ is now known as Guest60007 [01:43] only if you don't run applications full screen, i would think [01:43] True it is supposed to bypass the compositor for fullscreen windows, [01:44] do you run your graphics heavy applications windowed then? [01:46] if 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) [01:47] 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 now [01:47] there 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) [01:48] so your friend can now finally run gnome-calculator with the full possible FPS === monojamoon|| is now known as monojamoon| [01:48] i'm sure that's what they wanted [01:49] as well as the company they pay their power bill too [01:49] *to [01:49] I'm assuming that the compisitor might not perfectly unredirect "fullscreen" Wine game windows with DXVK. [01:52] No idea, I recommend reading up on it if it matters. [01:52] Well it would just be a matter of testing it and seeing if it actually does I guess [01:52] I mean if you think it matters.

I will go with the vps solution, thank you [06:53] masterasia: 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.

[10:50] ryuo: I've asked easy question .. is there some repo for 14.04 that contains updated kernel ? [10:50] ntz: vbox is not a package availbale on Ubuntu 14.04, is it? What exactly did they do?

[11:11] systemd-networkd [11:11] slingamn: instead of netplan? [11:11] you can configure networkd to do this instead i believe. [11:11] see man systemd.network [11:12] hmm, i have an /etc/netplan [11:12] if you explicitly configured networkd directly [11:12] then go with the networkd approach [11:12] otherwise look at netplan [11:12] i have an /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml [11:12] this was handled automatically by the installer i think [11:13] https://netplan.io/reference [11:13] probably your best option is to configure netplan. [11:14] slingamn: or, failing that, configure networkd directly and disable netplan. [11:15] if i'm reading the output of `systemctl list-dependencies` correctly, there is no such constraint [11:17] slingamn: so why do you think it's required? configuring the network service itself should suffice. [11:17] the intent of those sysctls is that they should be applied before the network comes up [11:18] slingamn: ok... then you may need to customize the service. [11:18] actually hmm, i think i'm wrong and the dependency is there [11:19] all i know is networkd has options for privacy extensions and temporary addresses [11:20] https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.network.html#IPv6PrivacyExtensions= you're right [11:20] ryuo, Captain_Haddock .. thanks for your support ..

Our old CI docker image worked, but when rebuilding it it breaks [12:08] yvyz: ctrl+alt+f? wont work, think its an ubuntu issue. Will try the other option. thanks ;) [12:08] !ubuntu+1 | fiesh [12:08] fiesh: Disco Dingo is the codename for Ubuntu 19.04 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 [12:08] ubottu: ah thank you [12:08] fiesh: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [12:08] madelmoe: ctrl-alt-f or f2 or f3 etc etc [12:08] yeah well it's not really a 19.04 related question though [12:09] fiesh: you shouldn't be using 19.04 for any project. It's unreleased and still underdevelopment and unsupported [12:09] fiesh: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/410863 [12:09] but I'll give it a shot there, thanks leftyfb [12:09] if you are buildign a project, I suggest throwing in a source for your intended version and building it alongside your project. im assuming you can makefile [12:09] yvyz: yep, tried all those... [12:10] fiesh: I also suggest only sticking with LTS releases for projects/production [12:10] ^ [12:10] yvyz: you're suggesting I should build gcc from source to build my project with it? [12:10] yvyz: so as i get a black screen when logging, after installing nvidia drivers, cannot check the logs with virtual console... :( [12:10] Jumping to 19.04 right now is not a good idea.

[12:10] leftyfb: yeah but that wasn't really viable because of a couple of dependencies unsatisfied by anything <19.04, alas [12:11] yvyz: wow thanks for your attitude [12:11] fiesh: no attitude here bud. [12:11] fiesh: just trying to help [12:11] fiesh: consider leftyfb's suggestion and use a support/complete distro. [12:11] yvyz: I'm not looking to build gcc myself in our build docker, there should be no reason to [12:12] I think the phrase "don't bite the hand that feeds you" is important here.

I can login only using wayland but the sistem si so slow and crash most of the time [15:10] on 16.04 and 18.04 the problem is related tu grub-eif [15:10] realnot: can you say how it crashes, any error messages? [15:10] ah i'm too fast, sorry [15:10] tomreyn: can't complete the installation due to grub-efi [15:11] realnot: "grub-efi" is not a problem in itself. do you know the exact message? [15:11] I don't figure out why each time I install ubuntu, it add a new entry on grub/boot choice [15:11] during the boot when I press F12 i can decide to boot through ubuntu, ubuntu, ubuntu, NVME, Media Device, Windows boot manager [15:12] there's a way to kill splash screen during login to see whats going on?

[15:14] well the installer's kernel is newer. [15:14] as in 'comes with more recent patches', not as in 'higher version' [15:15] So i go with 18.04? [15:15] 18.04.2 is my recommendation. [15:16] for *very* new hardware something else may be needed. [15:16] ok I'm creating the media [15:16] the machine is a p52 chipped with a p2000 nvidia [15:17] the reason I can log-in only with wayland in 18.10 could be related to nouveau driver/xorg issue [15:17] the output from those above commands, run from an installer, will be more useful / precise [15:17] tomreyn: how I can run them? [15:18] !terminal | realnot [15:18] realnot: 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/UsingTheTerminal [15:18] tomreyn: can I trigger a terminal also during the installation process? [15:18] you start a terminal, copy and paste these commands, and copy and paste their output here [15:19] yes, i think so. but you'd better do it before [15:19] i don't have any OS installed right now [15:19] the installation process fails [15:19] the ubuntu installer is also a "live system", meaning you can run all kinds of applications from it as if it was a full installation [15:20] when booting up the installer it will ask you whether you want to install or try ubuntu. you can select to try it. [15:20] Hi all [15:20] Hi MonsieurBon [15:21] tomreyn: but only if I chose "try ubunut" insted of "Install ubuntu" during the bootstrap phase [15:21] right? [15:21] I think the link to src.zip in openjdk-11 package points to a wrong location. Can I report this somewhere? [15:22] realnot: 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. [15:23] realnot: 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. [15:24] i.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. === ayekat_ is now known as ayekat === BaW_ is now known as BaW === techmagus_ is now known as techmagus [15:25] MonsieurBon: can you pastebin whats happening when doing what?

[15:28] i'm still having trouble getting audio from a hdmi capture card - the audio isn't muted and i've tried all audio options from the vlc drop down box - ubuntu 18.04 [15:28] lotuspsychje, as you can see, the src.zip in /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64 points to ../openjdk-11/src.zip but I think it should point to ../openjdk-11/lib/src.zip [15:29] baako: for polls, discussion, please !register and /join #ubuntu-discuss. [15:29] tomreyn: cheers [15:30] MonsieurBon: where did you get java from? [15:30] kruug: umount , i would think, what happens when you try? what does the man page say? [15:30] realnot: okay, which installer was this? [15:31] tomreyn: `umount /dev/sda3` results in `not mounted`. Man page doesn't say anything about unmounting. [15:31] tomreyn: 18.04, same with 16.04 [15:31] kruug: what does "mount" say about what is mounted then? [15:31] the only working installer is 18.10 [15:32] tomreyn: Ah, nice! /dev/fuse [15:32] Now to test how well SATA hot-swapping works. [15:33] realnot: 18.04.0, 18.04.1, 18.04.1.0 or 18.04.2? And is this ubuntu desktop, kubuntu desktop, lubuntu desktop, xubuntu desktop? or ubuntu server, or ubuntu alternate server? [15:33] tomreyn: 18.04.2 [15:33] lotuspsychje, from the standard repository (ie. apt-get install) [15:33] tomreyn: ubuntu desktop [15:34] realnot: ok, can you also get me the output of the command i posted earlier? [15:34] no cause I can't run a shell :/ [15:34] let me try to play a bit [15:34] MonsieurBon: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-lts/+bug/1791219 [15:34] Launchpad bug 1791219 in openjdk-lts (Ubuntu) "Symbolic link to src.zip in openjdk-11-source points to an invalid location" [Medium,Confirmed] [15:38] realnot: you ran the installer, though? this means you can also run a shell. another option you have is to press ctrl-alt-f3 after the installer booted, and press a key to get a shell there., then run these commands i passed you. you will not be able to copy + paste then, however. [15:38] ok [15:38] realnot: also please consider disabling secureboot on your uefi configuration.

[15:43] ignore the video [15:44] 0 [15:44] So I just figured out the problem, the solution for anyone interested, is to follow this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jiaRJJ43kI&t=498s at the 5:51 (looks like it's an issue with power) [15:45] i only posted this latest link to suggest you disable hybrid graphics on your eufi configuration for now. but then, you don'T have a black screen, as far as i know, so maybe just ignore this, too. [15:46] realnot: i shouldn't have posted this link in the first place, sorry, it's just distracting, so please ignore it. [15:49] https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201806-26269/ [15:51] realnot: are you still working on posting the command output, or have you given up on it but not reported it? [15:52] still working, but I tried with 18.10, when the installation will be completed i'll ssh into, copy/paste commands, fix the issue about nvidia drivers [15:52] this way will be more fast givin an output to you [15:53] and also the grub installation will not fail [15:53] as discussed before, there's no need to install ubuntu to run these commands and get the output.

[17:45] baako, install it? it is in the document [17:46] OerHeks: am trying to remove ir [17:46] remove it [17:47] baako, or use the old fashioned way, first example on that page.. [17:47] sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:bla bla === jodie___ is now known as jodie [17:54] Hi, I have a USB stick which does not show up when I run `sudo fdisk -l`, `sudo lsblk` or check `dmesg` after plugging it in. Is it broken and I should throw it in the trash? [17:54] Or can I still somehow format it? [17:54] KarlM: tail -f /var/log/syslog and plugin the device plz [17:55] KarlM: see if you can pastebin us the errors [17:55] One second [17:56] depends if it is inserted in usb3 ( blue) or usb2 on some machines.. === tga0 is now known as Guest40272 [17:57] lotuspsychje: No new entries get added when I run tail. Only some rekeying completion stuff from my WLAN there as last entries. [17:58] KarlM: plugging a device should at least give something even when broken [17:58] OerHeks: I tried it on a USB 2, as they usually have less problems in my limited experience [17:59] then it is broken, test on an other machine [17:59] Guys, I want to bind keys to increase/decrease volume of the active program (active is the one which is in the front). [17:59] I wrote the script which works in terminal, but once I bind it, it doesn't. [17:59] lotuspsychje: I run this command (which just displays and updates the last log lines), but no new lines appear when I plug the USB stick in or out. Doing the same with my keyboard gives tons of new lines [18:00] This is my code: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ZFHdcwkMfG/ [18:00] It's one line. [18:00] KarlM: maybe a last test on gparted? see if your device gets recognized there, if not= probably dead [18:00] Why does it work when ran from terminal, and it doesn't when bound to a key? [18:01] OK, I install gparted and will have a look [18:01] Basically, I use xdotool to catch active window's pid, then I get it's name and from name I get it's sink number. [18:02] And I use the sink number to increase/decrease the app's volume. === Class7_ is now known as Class7 [18:06] lotuspsychje: The stick also does not show up in Gparted. I guess I have to throw it away then. Luckily, it is just a 2GB stick :) [18:07] KarlM: try some other ports perhaps, other machines if that doesnt work... [18:07] KarlM, nothing in dmesg? if so it's dead, given that the USB port is known to be good. [18:07] bump ;) [18:07] I tried it on another machine, same thing [18:08] I did not try gparted there yet, but will do [18:09] Also I tried multiple USB ports. Sometimes USB sticks do just break I guess [18:09] All other sticks I have work fine [18:09] KarlM: got another usb to test the ports? [18:09] Yep, already did, they all show up nicely in dmesg, lsblk and fdisk -l [18:10] allrighty [18:10] dead, broken, electronic waste [18:10] lotuspsychje, OerHeks, lordcirth: Thank you all for the help! :) [18:10] welcome and sorry for your lost [18:17] As a last resort, I tried my girlfriend's Windows computer. No reaction when I plug the stick in or out (I would have hoped for a "corrupted drive" window popup or something - nope). As OerHeks said, electronic waste [18:17] -> trash [18:18] KarlM: did you hope recovering data on it? [18:18] Only problematic thing is if there was still data on it, I think it was not encrypted. [18:18] But then again, noone can read it :P [18:18] do the hammer protection [18:18] KarlM: you could try to open it [18:18] KarlM, feel free to take a hammer to it [18:18] lotuspsychje: No, so no worries. It [18:18] lol [18:18] 5 hits [18:18] Or a drill [18:18] haha [18:19] wrap it with a towel first so you don't leave scratches [18:19] If it works, it's not stupid [18:19] I think it would be fun to use a hammer :) [18:19] jeremy31 +1 , scratches on a hammer is bad [18:19] NEver done it [18:19] I have an old rusty hammer which does not mind [18:23] i had or still have a stick where you have to press against on one side for it to be detected [18:23] fassl, that sounds more like a wonky usb port [18:24] * or wonky usb connector on the device itself === murthy is now known as murthy_ [18:26] OerHeks, yeah, on the device, as others worked well [18:27] Too late: https://imgur.com/a/ZLVgLEu [18:27] I think I missed the main ICs, but oh well [18:28] If someone really gets this thing to run again or any data out of it, it is deserved :P [18:29] just to find pictures of cats :) [18:30] yeah, "cats" :P [18:30] shaved pussies [18:30] next time I learned my lessons and encrypt the thing before it breaks [18:32] or gets stolen... been there done that, but it was a laptop :/ [18:33] realnot: i'm back if this is not yet solved (but then i notice you say it is).

After install, whenever I try to ping a subdomain of the server machine, I get 'temporary failure in name resolution' I've googled around, but nothing seems related. Any one have any insight into this?

[18:40] tomreyn: v4.19.0-041900 and on 4.18.0.16.17 [18:40] jamie_1: as a side note, the kernel you were just running is from october last year, if affected by known bugs including security vulnerabilities.

[19:12] 1MB? That is a lot of log. [19:12] Got a Dell D6000 displaylink dock on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS [19:12] USB inputs working fine. No monitors being recognized, HDMI nor DisplayPort. [19:13] nevodka: im using it right now [19:14] nevodka: you need to go and get the display link drivers [19:14] jamie_1: which driver worked for you? [19:14] nevodka: https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu [19:14] I did [19:14] the ones direct from displaylink [19:14] I installed the most recent one [19:14] Installation went fine === murthy is now known as murthy_ [19:15] have you rebooted since? also sometimes you have to go into settings and click the dropdown to select a different display and enable that display... at least thats what i had to do [19:16] Rebooted, yes. [19:16] System Settings -> Displays shows only my built-in display.. [19:16] lordcirth: its the whole boot log [19:16] Did you install the latest displaylink driver? [19:17] oh wait.... nevodka are you using wayland or xorg? [19:18] jamie_1: maybe togheter with your logs, re-ask your issue to the channel [19:19] lotuspsychje: i was reading the log and its a bios error/bug :( [19:19] jamie_1: xorg [19:19] !acpi | jamie_1 [19:19] jamie_1: to debug ACPI issues on ubuntu make sure your bios is up to date and follow the procedure here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingACPI [19:19] nevodka: okay, wanted to make sure as it will not run on wayland [19:19] ubottu: it is [19:19] nevodka: it is XD [19:19] lol ubuntu lol [19:20] i cant type today [19:20] \0/ [19:20] nevodka: go into the display settings and where you see below the diagram it says built-in-display click on that and see if you get a dropdown [19:24] The displays are definitely not being recognized jamie_1 [19:24] also nevodka just to run a double check run $ loginctl show-session 2 -p Type [19:25] nevodka: okay just wanted to make sure, i had mine appear and they were not auto enabling and were only present in the dropdown [19:25] also are you using a usb3 port? [19:25] Failed to get session: No session '2' known [19:25] The dock comes with usb3 and usb C, tried both [19:25] oof [19:26] $ loginctl show-session 1 -p type [19:26] sorry *Type [19:26] capitol t [19:26] Failed to get session: No session '1' known [19:26] well thats odd [19:27] run just loginctl [19:27] and see what comes out [19:27] Two sessions c2 and c4 run as my user with seat0 [19:28] Both are type x11 [19:28] hrm.... [19:29] so i have a thought [19:29] sudo cat /var/log/kern.log | grep usb [19:29] while plugging the device in [19:29] Isn't that just the output in dmesg? [19:29] I have looked in dmesg, the usb peripherals are recognized just fine.. just not the displays. [19:31] Ah [19:31] The displaylink-driver.service failed [19:31] nevodka: that'll do it [19:31] modprobe error, could not insert [19:31] 'evdi': required key not available [19:32] nevodka: one sec, let me check my startup script, there is a dependancy it has [19:33] nevodka: displaylink has a dependancy of dkms [19:34] if you didnt install dkms prior you might have to remove displaylink install dkms and reinstall displaylink [19:34] nevodka: result for> mokutil --sb-state [19:34] I think i've found the issue [19:34] I have secureboot enabled [19:35] and was not aware [19:35] that will do it nevodka [19:35] will secureboot affect display link? === murthy_ is now known as murthy [19:35] yep [19:35] jamie_1: it won't allow compiled drivers to be loaded [19:36] the module must be signed [19:36] if secureboot is enabled [19:36] jeremy31: good point [19:36] i never run secure boot since i distro hop some days and i have to use internal company stuff here and there [19:37] i was just handed a company laptop [19:37] didn't think about it [19:39] nevodka: what is it with companies and give us display link docks XD [19:40] I actually requested the displaylink dock because I read they have good compatibility with 16.04 lts [19:40] the 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 boot [19:40] as for giving me a laptop without the capability for dual monitors... [19:40] :p [19:40] Why would nvme and efi only be problems? [19:41] lordcirth: 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 .efi [19:42] and nvme is tricky when it comes to laptops sometimes depending on how the hardware manufacture decided to link it with the rest of the system [19:43] and 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 work === nat is now known as Natkeeran [19:46] well im off... gonna update my bios hopefully it will make a different on my boot times [19:51] Anyone here able to assist me with Netplan in 18.10? I'm running in in a KVM on a SoYouStart dedi and it seems the ipv6 gateway keeps dropping / removing itself. running ip -6 route add default via [ip here] resolves the issue, however give it say 24 hours and it breaks the default route again [19:51] CamBan69, you are using dhcp6? [19:52] no and to rule out any issues with that i've specified "dhcp6: no", yet I still have the issue [19:53] I can't work out if this is OVH's network being retarded or Netplan. I've not had any issues with my other Ubuntu / Debian VM's [19:53] OVH issue then... [19:53] CamBan69, anything interesting near the end of "journalctl --unit systemd-networkd"? [19:54] But yeah, I suspect the hypervisor is briefly downing the interface [19:54] the last entry is from yesterday with "systemd-networkd[864]: veth6d96abe: Gained IPv6LL" [19:56] I'll check my logs on the hypervisor (proxmox), see if that shows anything too. It's just hard to pin down as I'm not too sure at what time the ipv6 drops [19:56] bidily boo [19:59] I guess that veth doesn't have anything to do with it, a local docker network adapter [20:12] hi, how can I pass to cups the printer username and password ? [20:12] so i have a lenovo t420 laptop running 18.04 that can suspend but almost never resumes properly. i have 12gb of ram, 12gb of swap, and even tried upgrading the kernel to 5.0.5; same result. any other things i can try? === sinner is now known as Guest41655 === tga0 is now known as Guest53067 [20:36] Hi everyone. I've been using nix on the server for years now. Finally going to migrate my home machine from win7 (now there's no sec updates) to some kind of ubuntu variant.

[22:25] k [22:25] mra90: nothing for lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net [22:25] I have to add that I sue external device (usb one) [22:26] its called "Edimax" [22:26] mra90: post url from terminal for> lsusb | nc termbin.com 9999 [22:26] jeremy31: for that I got "Network controller [...]" [22:28] jeremy31: it failed [22:28] terrible how just attempting to install Hugo can become a nightmare [22:28] "getaddrinfo for host "addres..." [22:28] btw simple lsusb [22:29] returned 4 instances [22:29] mra90: what do you want to know about? The name of the USB device? [22:29] I want to find out my network card [22:29] I follow this article http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-networking-configuration-using-command-line.html [22:30] and in one place it says "replace eth0 with your network interface card" [22:30] mra90: paste results from lsusb to paste.ubuntu.com and post URL. ifconfig should show you what to replace eth0 with [22:31] wondows, time to read some manual https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/ [22:32] jeremy31: I am thinking how to give you the output, I do all this on other laptop with no internet access [22:33] just a seconf [22:33] ok works on a new terminal... some caching bs I guess... I had initially installed it with apt-get and it installed a really old version so I removed it and installed via snap [22:34] mra90: can you connect the other laptop with USB tethering to smartphone? [22:34] jeremy31: yes [22:37] jeremy31: "lsusb" returns 4 records 2x Linux Fundation hub, Intel Corp and Chicony Electronics Co [22:37] the last one is my eternal network card I guess [22:37] mra90: chicony would be a camera [22:37] the full record says "Bus 001 Device 002 ID 04f2:b758 hicony..." [22:38] mra90: you said you had an edimax device [22:38] jeremy31: make sense when I unplug it no change [22:38] Yes I do [22:39] mra90: what model? AC1750 Ew7833UAC [22:40] for test I plugge keyboard and lsusb listed it right away, so that external card is invisible however it works OK - i use it at work [22:40] maybe in order to be listed it must be connected to *live* network? [22:40] EU 4306 [22:40] mra90: any USB device plugged in should show in lsusb === murthy is now known as murthy_ [22:41] EU 4306 - thats the model I guess [22:42] mra90: That should be supported by r8152 kernel module [22:43] so why lsusb doesn;t list it? [22:43] mra90: try a different USB port [22:44] jeremy31: same story [22:44] oh wait [22:44] after a while it showed up [22:44] mra90: I have to go now [22:45] jeremy31: lol and then it disapiered again ;/ [22:45] what happened to make it disapeer [22:45] ok [22:45] Hello. I'd like to develop an app for android. What tools do I need on Ubuntu? I found and installed the "android-sdk" pkg but (except for some file system tools) there doesn't seem to be an executable. Anyone tried that before? [22:48] vlt: join #android, they can probably help better than this channel could. There's an Android SDK which is commonly used for development, I think. [22:48] poutine: non. it's a final post from G+. that service shuts down April 2. i imported to my GNOME blog, and should edit the post. etes-vous Quebecois(e)? [22:49] android studio, i would look for [22:50] https://snapcraft.io/android-studio [22:50] tomreyn: The first advice I got there was to download "Android Studio" but I'd rather not accept their terms and conditions and am looking for a more FOSS solution. [22:51] yes the good ones are prop software === murthy_ is now known as murthy [22:51] vlt: maybe the folks in #fdroid have a hint for you [22:51] Hi. 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 password [22:52] tomreyn, OerHeks: Thank you! [22:53] !noroot | halvard [22:53] halvard: 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] welcome [22:53] tomreyn: I am not changing the root password [22:54] halvard: you should probably not be logging in as root either [22:54] As it works with my ssh connection, but the ubuntu user interface doesnt accept it. "Sorry, that didn't work. Please try again". [22:55] and root should most likely not login on X [22:56] use the restricted user account you created when when installing ubuntu, or create another restricted user accoun tto login to. [22:56] Okay, 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 root [22:57] Does it matter if I run a blockchain node from another user on the same server? [22:57] it matters in terms of what level of access someone gets when they exploit vulnerabilities in it [22:57] do you prefere them to get root immediately, or just access to a restricted user account? [22:58] also if this virtual server is actually a container, root access on this container may mean root access to the host system, too [22:58] Of course not. So when I restart the server both the webserver and node will start -- although they are on different users? [22:59] maybe X11Forwarding yes and ssh -X server@name is more conveniant, why vnc [23:00] services (old term: daemons) will usually start either as a restricted user, or as root, then quickly drop permissions, becoming a restricted user. [23:01] which 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. [23:02] e.g. an apache2 httpd server will be running much as user "www-data" [23:03] a 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] !permissions [23:03] An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [23:03] That's right! But how does www-data get logged in when I start the server? I find that confusing [23:03] I believe my sense of what a "user" is, might be different than yours [23:05] www-data is not a user, but a group permission [23:05] the first user space process the kernel initiates runs as user root, it will then spawn other processes running under either root or other user accounts [23:05] what ubuntu forum is recommended? [23:06] halvard: run "ps uw 1" to see this process on your system [23:06] mra90, the one of your country or ubuntuforums.org [23:06] OerHeks: thanks! [23:07] askubuntu, launchpad, markshuttleworth.com/biography [23:09] test [23:09] halvard: 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] Guest94343: please do your tests elsewhere [23:10] Is 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? [23:11] halvard: 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] Guest94343: there's recordmydesktop [23:11] !info peek [23:11] Package peek does not exist in bionic [23:12] oh, cosmic it does [23:12] !info peek cosmic [23:12] peek (source: peek): Simple animated GIF screen recorder with GUI. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.1-3 (cosmic), package size 172 kB, installed size 775 kB [23:12] ppa:peek-developers/stable for bionic [23:12] Ok, so I have downloaded gnome and added a new user. When I create an ssh tunnel with that new user and again connect with vnc.. The only user I see in the login is "Root" [23:12] https://code.launchpad.net/~peek-developers/+archive/ubuntu/stable [23:12] 0erHeks peek only provides gif recording, doesn't it? [23:13] OerHeks [23:13] "Login as another user" doesnt work [23:14] halvard: "doesn't work" "doesn't work" for getting support. [23:14] !details | halvard [23:14] halvard: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. [23:14] guest yes, that is what you asked for, no? [23:16] OerHeks I meant one program for recording gifs and videos [23:16] I know peek is the best for gifs [23:18] there are tons of video applications, https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/ubuntustudio-video [23:18] there is no single best :-) [23:18] I've logged in to remote server as root, and created a new user (useradd w/ passwd), I closed the connection, and created an ssh tunnel "newuser@server -L 5901:127.0.0.1:5901" successfully. When I not use the vnc client and connect to 127.0.0.1:5109 the only user I see is "Root" not "Newuser". And clicking "Login as another user" doesn't do anything. [23:19] My only idea is that it has something to do with Gnome [23:20] halvard: this sounds like you ran the login daemon or xvncserver as root. [23:20] https://snapcraft.io/search?category=photo-and-video [23:20] halvard: how exactly did you set things up, which ubuntu version is this? lsb_release -ds [23:20] halvard: actually run this: nc termbin.com 9999 < <(lsb_release -ds;cat /proc/{version,cmdline};) [23:22] romreyn: -sh: 13: Syntax error: redirection unexpected [23:22] Its Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS [23:23] I followed this guide as root. https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/install-and-configure-tigervnc-server-on-ubuntu-18-04/ [23:23] So that might explain why === tga0 is now known as Guest54832 [23:23] thx OerHeks [23:30] trying out 19.04, is there a way to see if the install hung? [23:30] with htop/top or something? [23:32] !19.04 [23:32] Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco Dingo) will be the 30th release of Ubuntu, scheduled for April 2019 (). It will be supported for nine months. [23:33] if you can switch caps lock, the install is going on, just be patient, and seek support in #ubuntu+1 [23:33] halvard: this looks like it could work. maybe you just need to restart gdm to be able to login as the newly created user [23:33] !ubuntu+1 | designbybeck__ [23:33] designbybeck__: Disco Dingo is the codename for Ubuntu 19.04 - Support only in #ubuntu+1 [23:33] OerHeks: just press caps lock? [23:34] I guess it turns on and off caps lock..the light changes on the keyboard OerHeks [23:34] does the light go on/off , no = dead [23:34] OerHeks: it is on this screen: http://pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=b97acffdd85265b2d258e70ed2b2e786 [23:35] halvard: if you don't need (intend) to choose the user you will login to, you can just install vino and enable the 'desktop sharing' feature on 'settings' (available from the activity menu) [23:36] ./ubuntu+1 [23:36] *gnome activities [23:36] designbybeck__: it's: /join #ubuntu+1 [23:36] yeah typo tomreyn thanks [23:36] I got it [23:47] Tomreyn: Thanks! Ill try to restart the server and try once more :P
