=== imnitwit is now known as nitwit [00:06] hi all, I'm having a problem running the mmmx64.efi file (MokManager). The loading screen for MokManager doesn't draw entirely, only the text is drawn where it says "Press any key to perform Mok Management" and the countdown text, but the rest of the screen is not drawn [00:07] and when I press any key to continue, the counter stops but the next screen isn't drawn [00:07] *mmx64.efi [00:08] is, for example, `falkon &` the standard way to launch applications? [00:08] or am i misusing the & and should do something else? === captain__broken is now known as CaptainFixerpc14 [00:28] Randune: i think your best bet is to file a bug report. [00:32] sappheiros: & makes the newly started process detach off the shell you start it from, that's all it does. you don't normally need to do this, unless you want to be able to start mutliple sub processes from the same shell and keep the shell available for further commands in the meantime. [00:57] Whats is the current kernal version? [00:58] *kernel [01:18] <[rg]> what else is required on ubuntu for the virtualbox vga driver to show up? [01:18] <[rg]> i already have extpack installed succesfully [01:35] Hey all, running 18.10 and have no idea where the nouveau driver is *still* loading from after installing the nvidia kernel modules via dkms. Have blacklisted via modprobe, still loads. Have removed the nouveau.ko module from my /lib/module/${uname -a} path, still loads, rebuilt my initrd, still loads, have extracted my initrd to check that the driver doesnt exist in the ramdisk... doesnt exist! Dont have a single nouveau.ko on my sys [01:37] [rg]: you don't need th eextension pack, just the guest addoitions (see devices menu). there's also the #vbox channel for virtualbox questions [01:43] TrXtmp: maybe focus on ensuring that nvidia's driver is loaded, this should ensure nouveau is not. have a look at sudo gpu-manager [01:49] or is the goal not to load any driver at all for this hardware? then you could use pci_stub to unbind the pci device [01:49] @tomreyn Issue is nouveau is getting there first and wont cleanly unload, meaning the nvidia driver is never able to claim the card: [01:51] https://pastebin.com/WpwRqqSN [01:52] if i recall this properly (don't have such hardware), X will first load nouveau no matter what, to get a better idea of the hardware available, then, if nvidia suggests it supports the hardware, unload the nouveau driver and load the nvidia one instead. [01:53] please mention you're using an unsupported kernel image next time you ask such questions. [01:53] tomreyn: how is that possible if the system doesnt have a copy of the nouveau driver matching the kernel? [01:53] Apologies RE the kernel, wouldnt expect it would make much difference being a module issue? [01:54] it makes a difference. supported kernels are supported here, unsupported kernels are not. [01:56] Will see if the problem persists on the regular kernel. [01:57] <[rg]> tomreyn: yes but I usually get redirected since I am using ubuntu's build etc [01:58] <[rg]> on other systems where I see options for the video driver I can solve the small vbox screen issue [02:38] hello [02:38] s [02:38] hello edge563 [02:39] admin [02:46] Im looking for a means to deploy Ubuntu on a desktop in a similar fashion to a debian netinstall. Can Ubuntu server be used for this purpose, or is there a catch? [02:48] You want to look at mе without clothes, sweetie (EXCLUSIVE FREE FOR NEXT 3 PEOPLE!!) ;-) follow the link and add me as a friend -----------> https://cutt.ly/3tYwHa [02:50] I have a cron script that runs find /directory -type f -mtime +7 -name "*.log" -delete. To get rid of some log files. How can I log the names of the files getting deleted? [02:51] newdimension, add -print to your cron command, then redirect the output (use >>, not >) into a log file of your choice. [02:51] And now you have a new log file to manage. ;-) [02:51] haha :) [02:53] Isn't there a log file for cron? I read post about that, but all I can find in my logs is just a oneline for anacron [02:53] ive heard of some mini iso, whats the difference between that and the server [02:53] maybe? The only facility I know of is MAILTO= and that's probably not what you're after. Maybe there's something like that for logging? Maybe man crontab? [02:53] i just wanna drop into a shell on boot, install my window manager and go from there [02:54] I'll look into it [02:55] ebisu, the server installer will probably give you the experience you want: pretty light, without being crippling. [02:56] i already run it on a VPS so I figured it would serve the same purpose on the desktop [02:56] ebisu: Any sane distro has a "mininal install". [02:56] what exactly is the "mini iso" [02:56] that Ive read about [02:56] IMO, the desktop edition is way too annoying. I use the server installer to get a minimal environment, then install MATE. [02:57] ebisu, the link is in an obscure place. One moment. [02:57] I use windowmaker so I have no reason to use one of the standard desktop distributions [03:00] also is it true that 18.04 is going to be supported for 10 years or is that hearsay from distrowatch [03:01] ebisu, you're running x86_64, right? If so, this is the link: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/18.04.2/release/ubuntu-18.04.2-server-amd64.iso [03:01] yes [03:01] Has Ubuntu really killed support for 32 bit? Quite a shame. [03:01] I run Devuan on my X60 [03:02] also thank you naptastic I will install it [03:03] ebisu: Nott dead yet .. there is still xubuntu that has a 32 bit install. [03:03] Can I install LILO on Ubuntu in the text installer like on Debian or will that have to come later? [03:03] ebisu, I've never used LILO so I have no idea, but I hope that works out well for you. [03:03] sorry for all the stupid questions I havent used Ubuntu since pre-unity [03:04] heh, you missed out on the correct parts ;) [03:04] Bashing-om: No, not anymore either - same with Lubuntu. [03:05] another question, if I remove dash will ubuntu respect ym bash declarations> [03:05] because it sure doesnt on my VPS [03:10] krytarik: xubuntu and lubuntu 18.04 lts support i386, i doubt they'll end support prematurely. [03:11] krytarik: 18.04 xubuntu still with a 32 bit image: https://xubuntu.org/download . [03:12] "Has Ubuntu really killed support for 32 bit?" [03:13] oops, sorry [03:15] krytarik: So, if you understood "Ubuntu" as vanilla Ubuntu, not one of the flavours, then you're right, otherwise, there's still support in some flavours. [03:15] No, I took that as a general question pertaining to current releases. [03:17] i see. [03:20] Is there a way to just go back to using /etc/network/interfaces ? [03:21] I'm just flabbergasted at these systems, which are so much more complicated, and yet capable of so much less, and I have to ask... where did we go wrong? === ubuntu is now known as Guest73642 [03:56] What is the best place to add a kernel module parameter? /etc/modules, modules-load.d/modules.conf, or just create my /etc/modprobe.d/module.conf file?

[04:01] reynolds10: ubuntu 19.04 is supported here, vmware solutions are not (unless someone volunteers to). please contact vmware. [04:01] Ugh, alright. Thx [04:03] raub: the easiest option is probably to place it in /etc/default/grub 's GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT and to update-grub [04:05] reynolds10: I have to say any time I needed to run vmware I just got ESXi and put it in a physical box. If I wanted to run vms in a linux box, I would either get virtualbox or kvm [04:06] No, because I looked on VMware's website and it says 19.04 is not supported, but 18.04 is. [04:07] And after I installed the bundle file for 15.0.4 and tried to open workstation I was getting an error about certain modules needed to be installed. [04:07] So I clicked install and it said unable to stop services and couldn't continue any further. [04:08] Was having the same problem while doing the same thing on my Manjaro system. [04:09] But anyway, I'm downloading 18.04 Ubuntu version and see if it fixes the problem [04:09] THere is #vmware [04:10] thx [04:11] sorry about complaining about a problem that you guys have no control over.

I want it to be at top? [07:57] Ouyes, at the top you have the status bar right?? [07:59] Sup Lads [07:59] What yall doing [08:06] Hi all, I've installed 19.04 a couple of days ago and I'm having problems with DNS resolution over wifi, I'd need some assistance diagnosing and fixing the problem. First I'd like to verity that the problem is indeed DNS resolution over WiFi. Any help is appreciated [08:08] Hi, I'm trying to save environment variable at a user level to be used in a Spring boot application. i was told that I need to set it in .pam_environment. I opened the file using a text editor and added my variables, and saved the document. However the application does not recognise them. I am not sure if I did it right as it's my first time doing so. [08:10] when I type env into the terminal I do not see the variables I added. [08:12] JohnGavr, what do you mean by status bar? [08:14] Spring resolved external config like this: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/boot-features-external-config.html [08:14] Ouyes: on unity you can only set the dock to left bottom or right i think [08:14] Ouyes: you might wanna take a look into dconf-editor [08:14] You could for instance use the jvm parameter --spring.config.location to point to your config location [08:17] hi [08:18] lotuspsychje, you mean dconf-editor is a tool could move launcher to the top [08:18] skuuter, thank you! I will try to read it. [08:18] Ouyes: dconf-editor is a GUI tool to tweak your settings ond esktop [08:19] thanks [08:20] geronimogarcia: to track down your problem, you might wanna: tail -f /var/log/syslog then disable and enable wifi again, then pastebin us the errors [08:21] lotuspsychje, I did open the app of dconf-editor, but for unity, it seems nothing I can configure [08:23] lotuspsychje on it! Thanks for your help! [08:25] Ouyes: check here: https://www.ostechnix.com/move-unity-launcher-bottom-ubuntu-16-04/ [08:34] lotuspsychje, it is a little bit strange, I did open dconf-editor but in unity there is no launcher settings at all [08:35] Ouyes: did you browse to: com.canonical.Unity.Launcher ? [08:37] lotuspsychje here is the pastebin https://pastebin.com/yfUFqpYv [08:37] lotuspsychje, yeah, now it is showing, but only two options, bottom, left. [08:37] Ouyes: yes, thats what i suspected, so thats your answer [08:38] lotuspsychje, so there is no way to move it to top. I remember it can be moved to top when I was using 14.04 [08:39] geronimogarcia: whats that network js thing, are you using something specific related to network? [08:40] looks like a gnome shell widget message [08:41] geronimogarcia: wich ubuntu version and wifi chipset please? [08:41] Ouyes: just checked in 18.04 you can set dock to top [08:42] ubuntu version is 19.04 with the chipset I'll need some help [08:42] geronimogarcia: is it an usb adapter or built-in? [08:42] geronimogarcia: sudo lshw -C network [08:42] built-in [08:42] it's a Dell Precision 5530 [08:43] Intel AC-9260 [08:43] that's the wireless chipset [08:44] ok tnx geronimogarcia [08:44] At some point, middle-click to close tab in Chrome stopped working, and I can't work out if it's Ubuntu 18.04 related or Crome related [08:49] lotuspsychje, that is nice. but my development env is too much binded to 16.04. [08:49] lotuspsychje, mr or ms hanks a lot. [08:49] geronimogarcia: at line 243 there are starting some dns lines [08:50] lotuspsychje, thanks a lot. [08:50] Ouyes: welcome [08:50] yes, I added those in NetworkManager manually [08:50] geronimogarcia: maybe thats where it goes wrong? [08:51] geronimogarcia: im not really the dns expert, but you might want to share some more info to the channel what you did there, for what purpose [08:51] hi all [08:51] it was happening before I added those entries, hoping it was my ISP and my wonky router configuration [08:52] this is pretty much a fresh ubuntu install, I [08:52] geronimogarcia: for the weirdness in your router, you could take a look in ##networking === beaver is now known as angelnewbie [08:53] geronimogarcia: for the ubuntu part, perhaps wipe the dns settings, or try an LTS release to compare? [08:53] geronimogarcia: a router reboot ca also do some magic in some cases [08:54] I only added openconnect, and set those DNS to bypass the router DNS [08:54] I've found some threads that mention this WiFi chipset and some problems with 4.17 kernels [08:54] !info docky | Ouyes you could try if this goes to top too [08:54] Ouyes you could try if this goes to top too: docky (source: docky): Elegant, powerful, clean dock.

I'm trying to figure out what's the purpose and how to use the "filter-type" option of a pocket. Anyone knows that? [09:13] Hi there, does anybody know when Kernel 5.1 is planned to land for Ubuntu 19.04? [09:14] i am to dumb to know where and what file i need to replace all the ::= lines with := , https://github.com/imapsync/imapsync/issues/162 . [09:14] anyone? [09:14] Pronoe: landscape is not supported by us, but by canonical [09:15] ducasse: thanks for the clarification [09:15] Siilwyn[m]: it's not, 19.04 won't get a newer kernel version [09:16] ninto: I think all of them. [09:16] ducasse: ah okay, that's a bummer. Is it risky to install it following this guide? [09:16] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [09:17] Siilwyn[m]: not necessarily risky, but totally unsupported. note that those kernels are meant for testing, not daily use. they don't have the ubuntu patches, so some functionality might be lacking [09:18] exit [09:19] ducasse: alright, thank you for your detailed reply, much appreciated! [09:20] I really want to use it since it fixes a bug that causes my laptop to be unable to suspend, making it very frustrating to use Ubuntu on. [09:20] !mainline | Siilwyn[m] [09:20] Siilwyn[m]: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds [09:20] Siilwyn[m]: in that case i would file a bug, see if that patch can be backported [09:21] oh I didn't know that backporting in the kernel is possible [09:21] I have bug open: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1812561 for some time now [09:21] Launchpad bug 1812561 in linux (Ubuntu) "[MacBookPro11,5] wakes up and suspends in a loop while closed" [Low,Incomplete] [09:22] but the maintainer doesn't want to confirm it for some reason === SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_Afk [09:22] let me take a look [09:24] just posted the link to the commit that resolves this issue [09:24] Siilwyn[m]: yea, i got that. but i dont know what file to edit :x [09:25] ninto: the 'makefile' [09:27] Siilwyn[m]: there's no mention there of whether or not it works in 19.94 that i can see? [09:29] ducasse: 19.94? do you mean Ubuntu 19.04? [09:29] hey, in isc-dhcpd I have set two options: 'option host-name "test";' and 'option tftp-server-name "";' but the option tftp-server-name is not included in the dhcp packet if I check with dhcpdebug. Anyone had this problem before and know how to solve it? [09:29] Siilwyn[m]: yes, sorry [09:30] I don't explicitly say it doesn't work on 19.04 since we're talking about upstream kernel versions in the thread. Should I post that it doesn't work out of the box on 19.04? [09:31] that's essentially what they ask for in #28, as the developer thinks it should be fixed there === beaver is now known as angelnewbie [09:33] ooooh [09:33] I see it now, I didn't understand what was meant with #28 [09:35] thanks a ton ducasse! [09:35] really hope this gets backported [09:36] chl_: come join in #ubuntu-server please [09:37] lotuspsychje: will do, thanks [09:38] Siilwyn[m]: just for the feedback, i had great experiences with 18.04 lts on several mac types working like a charm [09:39] lotuspsychje: thanks for the tip, that is probably because it uses a kernel version below 4.19.8 which contains the regression. [09:40] Siilwyn[m]: you might want to compare kernel versions/ubuntu releases yes [09:40] I'm kinda stuck on a 5 though since I use the wayland scaling with external monitors almost daily. [09:40] Siilwyn[m]: 18.04 will get later kernels, though [09:40] ducasse: an older version does get the new kernel? [09:41] Siilwyn[m]: lts releases do [09:41] !hwe | Siilwyn[m] [09:41] Siilwyn[m]: The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack [09:42] hmm so the release cycle is not as simple as I think it is [09:43] I actually switched from 18.04 LTS to 18.10 to get a newer kernel version if I remember correctly [09:43] maybe stupid in hindsight [09:43] Siilwyn[m]: lts releases get the x stack and kernels from all later releases [09:43] it takes a while, though === SimonNL_Afk is now known as SimonNL [09:43] but probably shorter than waiting months, e.g. in my case for 19.10 right? [09:44] Siilwyn[m]: next in line is 19.04 [09:44] Siilwyn[m]: 19.10 is still in development atm [09:45] lotuspsychje: I am on 19.04 already, but it won't get the new kernel 5.1 if I understand it correctly [09:46] Siilwyn[m]: iirc v5 is in -proposed for 18.04 atm, it will arrive soon [09:46] Siilwyn[m]: ah i see, well as 19.10 is in very early stage now, its reccomended only if you want to help testing, not daily driver yet [09:47] Siilwyn[m]: a later kernel than that will not arrive until well after 19.10 is released [09:48] ducasse: so to clarify: v5.1 will be in 18.04 soonish(tm) but 19.04 will stay at v5.0? [09:48] Siilwyn[m]: you can use the mainline team kernels to get a 5.1 kernel [09:49] https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.1/ [09:49] Siilwyn[m]: no, 5.0 will be in 18.04 soon - the kernel from 19.04 [09:49] Seveas: we've covered that, now we're talking about supported options :) [09:50] yeah Seveas to catch you up, this is the downside: "those kernels are meant for testing, not daily use. they don't have the ubuntu patches, so some functionality might be lacking" [09:50] there's no supported option [09:51] How do I get nvidia drivers working again on 19.04 [09:51] (or kernel 5.0) [09:51] just wanted to type that haha [09:51] until 19.10 atleast [09:51] MrSassyPants: wich graphics card chipset do you have, with wich driver loaded?

[09:53] gf660, before the upgrade to 19.04 I ran 415.27 on kernel 4.18 I think. [09:53] aLeSD: you're looking for the golang-go package [09:53] MrSassyPants: what does ubuntu-drivers list suggest for you? [09:54] lotuspsychje, 430, but it doesn't let me install that because I have "held back defective packages" or something [09:55] MrSassyPants: then let's fix that first :) what's the command you're running and its full output?

[09:58] ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa [09:58] I had the similar thing happening before I added the repo, I added the repo to see if that fixed it because I probably was using the repo before [09:59] MrSassyPants: the ubuntu graphics ppa should not interfere with apt, do you have other ppa's enabled? [09:59] !alis | TomyWork [09:59] TomyWork: Alis is an IRC service to help you find channels. For help on using it, see "/msg Alis help list" or ask in #freenode. Example usage: "/msg Alis list http" [09:59] lotuspsychje, I just did a dist-upgrade, that usually disables all custom PPAs, correct? [10:00] MrSassyPants: take a look into your sources.list [10:01] lotuspsychje, that is hard to parse, is there some easy list-repositories command [10:01] any suggestion on how to approach this known bug from a total noob perspective? thanks https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-bionic.git/commit/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c?id=c91729972ac67983a37270d0856f1ee93af54913 I have quite a long pastebin compiled stuff but for the moment with just an initial direction it would be fine [10:01] MrSassyPants: seems to be working for me, try a 'sudo apt-get update' [10:02] !pastebinit | MrSassyPants [10:02] MrSassyPants: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit [10:02] MrSassyPants: dist-upgrade does not disable ppa's, do-release-upgrade does. [10:02] well I did that one [10:02] lotuspsychje, i found #ubuntu-packaging in the wiki [10:02] TomyWork: neat [10:03] not many people there, though [10:03] my problem is, i can't install a package that depends on gdb:i386, because the gdb:amd64 package conflicts with my equivs package that provides gdb:i386 [10:03] TomyWork: there's also #ubuntu-devel if you like [10:04] I can try something entirely different and purge all nvidia [10:04] MrSassyPants: well with the ubuntu ppa, its more reccomended to switch instead [10:04] thanks, i'll try there. [10:05] lotuspsychje, I'm assuming the do-release-upgrade without the ppa installed drivers which conflicted with the ppa drivers I had installed before and that's why now activating the ppa didn't fix anything [10:05] MrSassyPants: you could try to switch to a lower version for example, aka 418 [10:05] I tried that, didn't work either [10:06] MrSassyPants: the ubuntu graphics ppa is well maintained, should not give dependency issues [10:06] MrSassyPants: so if apt gives errors, it has to come from something else [10:07] argh, even the purge seemingly leaves packages installed [10:08] i.e. trying to install 430 with a supposedly nvidia-less system still tells me it's going to remove various 415 things [10:08] MrSassyPants: lets have a look at your sources.list plz? === yash is now known as Guest99710 [10:09] http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/d2grfwpcHJ/ lotuspsychje [10:09] MrSassyPants: and the files in /etc/sources.list.d [10:09] thats a truckload of files [10:10] you only need the ones ending in .list [10:10] if I am on 18.04, and edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades to set prompt=normal, then will the upgrade from 18.04 to 19.04 go OK? Or should I upgrade via 18.10 first? [10:10] the others are backups from when things disable ppa's [10:10] rory: you'll need to go through 18.10 [10:10] oibaf-ubuntu-graphics-drivers-bionic.list <- These are in there, they're old [10:10] OK thanks Seveas [10:11] MrSassyPants: more /etc/sources.list.d/*.list | cat [10:11] pastebin the output of that, it'll be all files including their names [10:12] rory: keep in mind you are going from lts to a non-lts [10:12] well after purging nvidia and attempting to install 430 again, it seems to have worked (no errors, attempting to install 430 again doesn't tell me anything suspicious) [10:12] MrSassyPants: great :) [10:12] I'm gonna give it the old reboot [10:12] to see if it now boots up as it should [10:12] :fingers_crossed: :) [10:16] update: It looks fine, I guess? [10:16] I like that update [10:24] I changed to the wrong nVidia display driver and now my gfx is super laggy [10:25] I want to restore the norveau driver again but dont know how on the CLI or the GUI [10:26] I would research the web, but I have to right click and bring up a context menu to refresh the new webpage content as I scroll down, its pretty painful [10:27] HELLO :) [10:27] hey [10:30] Tankburn, think removing the nvidia driver in use shouid restore nouveau after a reboot, if not use the vt/tty and install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau [10:32] i am using ubuntu 19.04 with using cinnamon desktop (latest version, PPA) and can not install the package "cinnamon-screensaver-x-plugin"! [10:33] "cinnamon-screensaver-x-plugin : Depends: cinnamon-screensaver (>= 3.1.0) but it is not going to be installed" ... BUT it's installed: Package: cinnamon-screensaver, Version: 4.0.3-1~disco0 [10:33] ... what can i do??? [10:35] what are the problem!? [10:39] Oh no, I can't run a VM in Ubuntu if Ubuntu is already a VM [10:39] that sucks [10:41] Tankburn, for vt/tty use ctl+alt+F2-F6 if you don't get a desktop, if you do then open the cli and do: sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau [10:41] to make sure [10:48] interrobangd: we dont support external ppa's, contact the maintainer please [11:09] for those who waited the firefox updates, they are out, update your systems [11:09] !uptodate [11:09] To ensure you have all the latest known patches and security updates for your ubuntu installation, please update with the following command: `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade`. See also !upgrades and !security; you may also need to run `apt full-upgrade`. === Nimrodel_ is now known as Nimrodel [11:29] hello === yash is now known as Guest74205 === zulgaban_ is now known as zulgaban === M_A_Y_A_T is now known as m_A_y_A_t [11:48] help [11:48] !ask | kaneki [11:48] kaneki: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily).

I have tried installing it: apt install openvpn and running it: openvpn vpn.ovpn and it's saying I have no Internet when I try and run "curl icanhazip.com" ? [11:51] ping doesn't work too! [11:52] using a free vpn server or a commercial one, ChunkzZ? [11:52] torguard so paid. [11:54] did you download a gui client to install? [11:54] no, command line. [11:55] so you added the .ovpn files to /etc/openvpn ? [11:56] BluesKaj dont you have to make a password file too? been a while since i used ovpn on ubuntu [11:56] BluesKaj, no [11:57] the .ovpn is in my home dir. [11:57] urgodfather, it asks for a username/password; I enter them and it connects but doesn't allow Internet. [11:57] urgodfather, yes, username and pw in a textfile usually in /etc/openvpm [11:57] BluesKaj, ^ [11:58] ChunkzZ can you verify that it actually connects? [11:59] yes, it connects. [11:59] ChunkzZ do you get an ip from the vpn server? [11:59] yes. [11:59] ChunkzZ, normally you need to add the .ovpn files which point to the servers to /etc/openvpn IME [11:59] are you able to ping the vpn server? [12:00] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4wJZbSVSTf/ [12:00] no urgodfather [12:00] see the paste, it connects. [12:00] sounds like the routing isnt allowing traffic to pass [12:02] ChunkzZ what method did you install ovpn client? [12:02] command line. [12:02] link to instructions followed? [12:02] what? [12:03] "apt install openvpn" [12:03] ok [12:03] thats what i wanted to knwo [12:03] if you pulled from ubuntu or if you installed via wget [12:04] pulled from ubuntu... [12:05] curl: (6) Could not resolve host: icanhazip.com === paul` is now known as dzion [12:06] our company lan's domain has the (unfortunate) TLD ".local". I can't look up DNS names in that. I already stopped avahi-daemon (which usually fixes the issues), but I still can't resolve these DNS names. what else might be intercepting .local name resolution? [12:06]
