[00:00] probably tomreyn it's giving an example: ipp://cups-servr/printers/printer-queue [00:00] i don't know what it needs [00:00] does it list several protocols to choose from, like ipp http tcp lpadmin [00:01] tomreyn, yes. what's it after on our local lan? [00:01] we know the printer's ip [00:01] you need to have the ip address of the printer. and the router needs to aways assign this same ip address to it [00:02] is this setup in the router, yet? [00:02] tomreyn, i don't know. [00:02] or is there a static ip address configured on the printer? [00:03] i.e. did one of you set this on its website? [00:03] tomreyn: it's probably using DHCP if they didn't configure it. [00:03] tomreyn, i don't know. it worked with the last printer. [00:03] anyone for my question please? [00:03] he says there is a static ip address assigned to the printer. [00:03] ryuo: yes, most likely. [00:04] chull: i'd see if it's reachable through ping. [00:04] if it's not even detected, then the driver problem is a side issue. [00:04] chull: great, ipp:// would be the standard protocol to use. there is also ipps:// which is encrypted, but for home, if you go through a wire (not wireless) you probably don't need this. [00:05] thanks tomreyn - ryuo bingo. it doesn't respond to pings. what now? [00:06] Is there a reliable php7.3 repository for ubuntu 18.04? [00:06] The distro only contains php 7.2 I think [00:06] PHP 7.2.17-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 [00:06] Other than compiling from source, is there a packaged way? [00:07] chull: hmm, then i guess i'd refer to its setup instructions [00:07] chull: there was surely some quick setup manual which came with it. [00:07] chull: no idea, but a factory reset might be in order. [00:08] but a printer should respond to pings. [00:08] chull: if your router has a web interface, it'd be good to check whether it can see the printer, and whether its ip address is really the one you think it is [00:09] stoned: only the version in ubuntu is supported here. you may find a ppa which supports other versions. Ondřej Surý's PPAs are often used for this purpose, but are not supported here. [00:09] soulisson: not that i know of. why would you need to? [00:09] Hm. [00:10] tomreyn, i'm doing a ctf and I can run sudo apt-get update without password :) [00:12] soulisson: i see. good luck. [00:12] chull tomreyn ryuo windows sees that printer [00:13] tomreyn, thanks [00:15] chalcedony: so i guess it just doesn't respond to ping, or not until it is setup maybe. [00:16] chalcedony: i suggest you take the approach i discussed above, incas ethat'S not what you did. [00:18] tomreyn, it says it's printing a test page, we will see [00:20] tomreyn, there is a difference between 130 and 230 ;) [00:20] it does see pings with the right address [00:21] :) === thethe is now known as theothe [01:00] hi all..has anyone used mokmanager to sign a third party (proprietary) driver with secure boot? [01:05] how do I type in unicode characters on Ubuntu Desktop? [01:06] On Windows I can hold down alt, use the numpad and let go of alt to virtually type the unicode character, and most applications would accept it. [01:10] Goop: ctrl-shift-u + hexcode [01:10] What is the minus mean? [01:10] I hold all of them at out? [01:10] at once* [01:10] I tap them? [01:11] altogether, then release when u is printed [01:12] then space or enter to finish composing [01:13] 002B [01:14] That didn't go as expected. [01:14] use lower case characters, pressing shift may break the sequence [01:15] no need for leading zeros [01:15] Hello [01:15] exit [01:16] I'm trying to be able to say the German "Weiß" without copy-and-paste. [01:16] I am American English, so I do not have that character on my keyboard. [01:16] [01:16] What? [01:17] 0080 [01:19] Goop: https://www.ascii-code.com/ lists extended ascii codes. hex for ß is DF [01:22] tomreyn, if I try [control + shift + u] - 0223 or [control + shift + u] - 223, I get ȣ [01:22] not ß. [01:22] Goop: do you know what decimal and hexadecimal are? [01:23] base 10, base 16? [01:23] tomreyn, I know what decimals are. Not really hexadecimal. [01:23] I know what binary is, but I have never understood hexadecimal is. [01:23] binary is base 2 [01:23] look it up on the web, [01:25] Goop: the input to ctrl-shift-u needs to be hex(adecimal), not dec(imal) codes. the table i pointed you to lists both on separate columns [01:27] hello friends? [01:27] hi [01:28] tomreyn, oh that is much easier. [01:28] khoze, hello [01:29] tomreyn, Okay, now I understand. You've taught me something new. [control + shift + u] - DF gives me ß. [01:30] Goop: glad it makese sense now. [01:30] can someone fix sql error mandationary? [01:31] khoze, I do not understand. Do you want someone else to fix your error? [01:31] khoze: i don't think this question makes sense to me. [01:32] khoze, are you asking if it is possible for a person to fix a particular MySQL error? [01:32] are you asking for help with fixing a "mandationary" error? [01:32] In which case, I do not know what a "mandationary" error is. You will need to clarify. [01:33] i have problem when i excute, mysql, [01:33] khoze, okay, you have a problem when executing a MySQL command. Can we get the query you tried? [01:35] sqlmap.py: error: missing a mandatory option [01:35] khoze, okay so you have a Python error, that is not a MySQL error. [01:36] yes my python? why to upgrade? [01:36] khoze, will you post the Python script on Ubuntu paste? [01:36] https://paste.ubuntu.com/ [01:36] There is the link ^ [01:37] khoze: we don't support hacking here. [01:37] tomreyn, I don't think he is hacking. [01:37] Goop: i do [01:37] tomreyn, why is that? [01:38] khoze, if you need some help, you can send me a PM. I am not sure tomreyn is right on his assessment that you are hacking. [01:38] search the web for the name of the script [01:38] tomreyn, could be a coinsidence. [01:38] sql and map are words in the English language. [01:39] It could be a map between Python objects and MyQSL objects.

I guess my start would be to piece together some hardware and software [03:12] Quit [03:12] since ROS is recommended to use with ubuntu, is there any recommendation for making ubuntu real time [03:12] should i do a kernel patch [03:12] I'm now on Disco Dingo and reports that kernel 5.0 gets along with nvidia drivers at boot are greatly exagerated [03:14] how are people planning on dealing with LTS-only upgrades as it pertains to postgresql? postgresql is only on version 10 for 18.04 and upgrading from 18.10 to 19.04 forced me to upgrade to postgresql 11 and i lost my old database during the upgrade [03:15] are postgresql users expected to install postgresql 11 from a ppa on their 18.04 installation prior to the next LTS? [03:17] I don't see an option to boot into recovery mode off a live USB? [03:32] is mkinitcpio just an arch thing or will instructions work for me too? [03:34] hello [03:36] how to chatting?

[03:48] ask a question first tripd [03:55] When I use Firefox, I press Alt+left to go back to a previous page, but now when I do so I find myself looking at the login screen. If I press Alt+right, I get back to my session. If I press Alt+Left multiple times, I find myself looking at the virtual terminals. I can't find this shortcut set anywhere, though. Any idea what is going on? [03:55] Normally I only see this happen if I press Ctrl+Alt+F1 or something like that. [03:56] I'm using Ubuntu 18.04. [03:59] Okay does ANYONE know how to enable KMS with Nvidia's drivers? [04:25] clear [04:27] 1 === tripd is now known as tripd- === tripd- is now known as trip_ === trip_ is now known as tripd [04:57] I'm hours down this rabithole [04:57] I've wasted half the day [04:57] HOW DO I FIX THE BLIND MODE THING [04:57] Like why is it so hard for linux to give me a goddamn console on boot [04:58] !language | Scottbert [04:58] Scottbert: Please avoid any language that may be considered offensive, including acronyms and obfuscation of such - also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines || The main channels are English only, for other languages, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList [04:58] I wouldn't be swearing if it wasn't 6+ hours of work for no result to get a console [04:58] Does anyone know what to do? [05:00] googling ubuntu blind mode indicates that it's hardly an unknown problem [05:01] Scottbert: this is not the complain channel, if you want help its best to ask your question all in one line with all details and be patient until volunteers reply [05:02] Scottbert, are you working with Ubuntu server? What console are you talking about? [05:02] Scottbert: What results with the grub boot parameter: systemd.unit=multi-user.target. And for the whole process see: ' man bootup ' . [05:03] Oh geez. I love problems that are as deep as the Grub boot loader. [05:03] kubuntu disco dingo. On initial install, it says invalid video mode (paraphrasing), booting in blind mode... No boot text. once plymouth comes up, can press a key to watch the boot sequence. However... [05:04] Once nvidia drivers are installed, plymouth never comes up. There's no boot sequence until the login screen comes up. This is bad, because if the GUI ever breaks, I'm hosed. (ctrl+alt+f2 shows the blind mode message, it MAY work as a blind terminal but I can't see what I'm typing or responses) [05:05] Scottbert, if you want things to work well, I would highly recommend using a more "settled" version of kubuntu. I recommend using LTS 18.04, so you get that support. [05:05] Scottbert: systemctl set-default multi-user, completely disables starting X on startup so you get a console interface. [05:05] So, to be clear, I'm not trying to boot to console INSTEAD of x. I'm trying to make sure a console is THERE, so that I can see if there are any problems during boot, and so that I can reach a console if the gui ever fails. [05:06] I've had the gui fail me once so far and I ended up having to reinstall [05:07] Scottbert, what physical hardware do you have? [05:07] I am reasonably concerned that if I changed my config to boot to console without solving this problem first, I might end up stuck at the 'blind mode' screen forever. [05:07] For your video card, let's be specific. [05:08] an old intel mobo (just new enough to have UEFI) and a Radeon 750 Ti [05:08] The graphics card does not supply any information over GOP -- as far as grub is concerned it supports no video modes [05:09] Scottbert, but you were able to go through install just fine. Just the boot after install is screwing up? [05:09] Yes. I don't think it did blind mode during liveusb boot. [05:09] What I don't understand is why linux can't start in text mode, then load the nvidia drivers when x starts [05:10] I am no expert in hardware issues, just so you know. When I get computers that don't magically work with Ubuntu, I give up out of ignorance. [05:10] Or, alternatively, why KMS doesn't work and let it start in graphical mode [05:10] Luckily, this laptop magically works with Ubuntu. :) [05:10] Yes, well, windows broke and refuses to reinstall on this computer and I have no money, so 'give up' is not a choice [05:11] Scottbert, go with [k]Ubuntu 18.04 [05:11] It is more stable and has more support. [05:11] Or go with [k]Ubuntu 16.04. [05:11] I heard somewhere that kernel 5.0 is better for graphics support, though [05:12] Unless your problem is also that you don't have another flashdrive/medium to put another OS on. Lol [05:12] I only have one working flash drive large enough to hold an OS install image -- it's kubuntu 18.10 on it at the moment [05:13] Also, google searching indicates that one form or another of this 'blind mode' issue has been a bugbear of Ubuntu's for years [05:15] Scottbert, oh so it might not even fix the issue by switching to a more stable operating system. [05:17] I believe I have cause to be hesitant, yes. Although it seems like everyone has a different reason for this bug to occur4.

[05:44] Goop: qwebirc75194 "failed encrypted password", Carefull here as this is not the system password. [05:44] only 3 options "ubuntu" "advanced options for ubuntu" "system setup" [05:45] Bashing-om, maybe I misunderstood this situation. However, qwebirc75194 is struggling with English. Maybe he meant "password hash" instead of "encryption", so I take it he is trying to log into his computer and forgot his password. [05:46] hi, I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu. After the installation process, I'm booted into the EFI shell and can't seem to get past it. [05:46] Bashing-om, I understand that there is a difference, but if you see the dialogue, I asked him.

[05:54] qwebirc75194, try "echo hello" [05:54] yes "echo hola" [05:55] qwebirc75194, did nothing happen or did it say "hola" after that?

[05:56] volume group "ubuntu-vg" not found [05:57] cannot process volume group ubuntu-vg [05:57] qwebirc75194, I am not sure I can help much. It sounds like you encrypted your volume. If you cannot remember your password you encrypted the volume with, you cannot get back the volume. [05:57] please unlock disk SDA3_crypt: [05:58] If you have an insecure password, you may be able to hack into it. [05:58] But I cannot really give hacking advice, sorry. Not really my field of expertise. :\ [05:59] if that is the detail that uses numbers and letters and we can not make it match the original. Well thank you very much for the time and excuse my English: D I will try to improve it [05:59] qwebirc75194, if it were a plain password issue, you could just change the password, but it looks like you've encrypted the volume. [06:00] There is no maximum number of attempts, if I keep trying, nothing bad happens? [06:00] qwebirc75194, there is no maximum number of attempts. Try as many times as you want. [06:00] yes, it is the encryption of the volume [06:01] great, I'll keep trying [06:01] Again, thank you very much Goop [06:02] qwebirc75194, you're welcome. [06:02] SleepyTurtle, okay tell me more about your problem. [06:03] Goop: I seem to be stuck at the EFI shell [06:03] even after a successful ubuntu installation [06:04] SleepyTurtle, I have no idea what the difference between UEFI/EFI/Legacy is, have you made sure that your motherboard settings allow for your installation type/ [06:04] ?* [06:04] I get 4 partitions (blk0 to blk3) but when doing ls they all seem to be empty [06:05] Goop: My motherboard has no setting for UEFI/EFI/Legacy === gms is now known as Guest50053 [06:06] the datasheet says it has AMI EFI 64 bit [06:06] SleepyTurtle, not sure what all this means. I'm kinda taking shots in the dark here. [06:07] SleepyTurtle, so you're able to get into a shell? [06:07] the EFI shell, yes [06:07] Not sure what an EFI shell is. [06:07] SleepyTurtle, have you tried Googling your issue? [06:08] yes [06:08] SleepyTurtle, so where did you get stuck? [06:08] at the beginning [06:08] I seem to have nothing to work with [06:08] other people have some sort of filesystem [06:09] I see nothing but the black void of the pc's heart [06:09] SleepyTurtle, can you grab a livecd and run Ubuntu off of a USB stick? [06:09] yes, I tried that and was able to see the ubuntu installation [06:10] but can't boot into it [06:10] SleepyTurtle, there should be an option somewhere that says "try Ubuntu without installing" or something to that effect. [06:11] yes, I did that to take a look at what was on the computer and was able to see the ubuntu installation [06:11] But I can't boot into the installation on the computer [06:11] It takes me directly to the EFI shell whenever I power it up [06:12] SleepyTurtle, okay if you have a Ubuntu operating system running, then you will have a better chance of things properly working when you try to list your volumes. [06:13] SleepyTurtle, have you considered a hardware failure of the storage volumes? Mechanical hard drives are more likely to fail if they are placed in extreme temperatures, change in temperatures, are bumped or dropped, or are physically opened and exposed to the elements (air). [06:13] storage devices* [06:13] not volumes [06:14] Goop: It's a new computer [06:15] SleepyTurtle, have you considered the other factors I have mentioned? Have you treated the computer with care, and put it stable and good temperature, and not bumped it? [06:16] A new mechanical hard drive is still susceptible to damage. [06:16] I received it yesterday [06:16] I haven't had time to mistreat it yet [06:17] SleepyTurtle, okay I suggest installing a new operating system then. Keep it simple. [06:17] SleepyTurtle, wipe the old one and put it on again. [06:17] That's what I did with ubuntu === lotuspsychje__ is now known as lotuspsychje [07:51] hi [07:52] Do you need a static ip adress to ssh into a machine if you are both on the same network? [07:52] SleepyTurtle: that question doesn't make much sense. [07:52] why not? [07:54] SleepyTurtle: all the things you ask about are orthogonal. [07:55] not really [07:55] SleepyTurtle: this is also not really an ubuntu question [07:55] Is having a static ip adress still necessary when connecting computers via ssh in the same network? [07:57] sometimes i wonder why i even bother... [07:58] bhuddah: please, with that attitude, don't bother. [07:58] SleepyTurtle: dont tell volunteers what to do or not [07:59] SleepyTurtle: your question is not about ubuntu, move on please [08:00] hello, i want to move from ext4 to btrfs and have copies the entire filesytem, updated grub and select the new menu entrie (ubuntu on the btrfs partion) .. but it runs from ext4 [08:00] whats wrong [08:02] lotuspsychje: being a volunteer does not exempt you from basic decency [08:02] SleepyTurtle: feel free to discuss that in #ubuntu-discuss [08:02] I will, however, take your advice and move on [08:24] interrobangd: your grub config might still point to the old drive as root fs [08:25] ducasse, yes! but why... [08:26] i have a GPT table and EFI partiton .... could that be the problem? [08:26] no, that should not matter [08:27] .. any idea why grub add new menu entries but boot from old ext4? [08:28] .. using the old "root fs"!? [08:28] hi, I have two partitions (ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04) I can access the files in 18.04 from 16.04 but I cannot access my files in 16.04 from 18.04 [08:29] interrobangd: can you pastebin your /etc/fstab and the output from 'blkid'? [08:30] hi [08:30] hi, I have two partitions (ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04) I can access the files in 18.04 from 16.04 but I cannot access my files in 16.04 from 18.04 [08:30] abdeel, you should find the partition fdisk -l [08:31] abdeel, do you have lvm or something? [08:32] ducasse, fstab -> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Dq6gmcQsRw/ blkid -> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/pVF85Wn2bS/ [08:33] old ext4 -> ac4c432c-ad75-4d3c-bfa6-e67850e8efb9, new btrfs -> bc31f0ab-dfbd-4c35-9c60-70776aeb0242 [08:34] fstab is still pointing to ext4, it needs to point to the root btrfs subvol [08:34] lupulo, I don't have. I can access both drives but 16.04 drive is usually empty [08:34] interrobangd: grub needs to match that too [08:34] when I access the drive of 16.04 from 18.04, its usually empty but I can access the files of 18.04 from 16.04 [08:35] fdisk: cannot open /dev/loop24: Permission denied === jetgirl is now known as tuxi [08:36] abdeel, say to me the output of "mount | grep "/ " [08:37] abdeel, mount | grep "/ " | cut -d" " -f1 [08:37] ducasse, i think it is because fstab is from old ext4!? [08:38] interrobangd: well, did you edit in on the btrfs volume? [08:38] *edit it [08:38] ... no [08:38] damn! [08:39] right. that won't happen by itself [08:40] interrobangd: you also need to add "subvol=@" to the mount options in fstab [08:43] abdeel@abdeel-eebraheem:~$ mount | grep "/" | cut -d" " -f1 [08:43] sysfs [08:43] proc [08:43] udev [08:43] devpts [08:43] tmpfs [08:45] /var/lib/snapd/snaps/gnome-3-28-1804_23.snap [08:45] /var/lib/snapd/snaps/gnome-3-26-1604_74.snap [08:45] /var/lib/snapd/snaps/gnome-calculator_352.snap [08:45] /var/lib/snapd/snaps/gnome-logs_57.snap [08:45] /var/lib/snapd/snaps/gtk-common-themes_1122.snap [08:45] /var/lib/snapd/snaps/core18_782.snap [08:45] uhoh [08:45] abdeel, not that mount | grep "/ " | cut -d" " -f1 [08:45] that [08:45] abdeel: pastebin.com [08:45] https://paste.ubuntu.com/ [08:45] or that [08:46] ducasse, like this? UUID=bc31f0ab-dfbd-4c35-9c60-70776aeb0242 / ext4 errors=remount-ro,subvol=@ 0 1 [08:47] .. sorry for the whitespaces ...:/ [08:47] that looks good, now grub just needs to match [08:47] i will try it now! thank you!!!!!!!!! [08:48] grub also needs to point to the subvol, iirc [08:50] interrobangd: you need "set prefix=($root)'/@/boot/grub'" [08:50] I have done that on pastebin @ lupulo [08:50] interrobangd: that @ sign is important [08:50] abdeel, paste the link of pastbin [08:50] ducasse, where to add this? [08:51] interrobangd: if you hang on a minute, i'm trying to get our resident grub expert to pitch in, he just arrived [08:52] the config file is /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grub.cfg, but i'm not sure if you should edit that directly [08:53] .. who has created the subvol? i have just formated btrfs and copies all the files from ext4 to btrfs [08:53] that happens when you create the volume (format it) [08:54] so /boot is always a subvol? ... sry the question ... i am new to btrfs :D [08:54] no, @ is [08:54] it's the 'root' subvol [08:56] hi :) [08:57]
