tomreynkeep in mind you could also go directly to 18.04 then00:00
mousesIt's usually the 'best bet' in my experience, but I have not played with recent upgrade options - much may have improved and I may be very ignorant of it00:00
herouxmayep, another very good point00:00
herouxmaFeeling like starting a new life00:00
herouxmalol00:00
herouxmaThanks for the inputs, will go from scratch to 18.0400:01
herouxmaGnome is the default environment for 18.04? Is there any Unity legacy?00:01
Bashing-om!unity | herouxma00:02
ubottuherouxma: Unity is a graphical shell for the GNOME desktop environment. Ubuntu used it by default from 11.04 to 17.04. For more information, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity00:02
Bashing-omherouxma: unity is still maintained in the universe repo by the community :)00:03
herouxmaSorry, I meant the Unity Launcher00:04
herouxmahttp://unity.ubuntu.com/ server not found00:05
herouxmaUnity Homepage first link00:06
Bashing-omherouxma: "https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity" ? completes for me.00:07
herouxmaOkay, will let go of Unity and get Gnome at work like I have on others00:08
dev1cefsociety00:08
herouxmayes, the wiki first link in wiki failed just saying00:08
herouxmaBut I am good, won't install Unity as my desktop00:08
herouxmawill go with Gnome, will miss rotating my desktop...but for what it really served...00:09
Bashing-omherouxma: In 18.04 there is also Wayland. YMMV but I found it smoother and faster than Gnome.00:10
herouxmaoh, good to check that then...I have ran XFCE on Fedora for a while, was pretty speedy00:11
Bashing-omherouxma: I too have my preference as XFCE as my daily driver.00:12
mousesXFCE + i3 here :)00:13
mousesi3 is love, i3 is life :)00:14
herouxmaI see, but Wayland isn't it a replacement of X11Free86?00:14
mousesherouxma: Wayland is a alternative to xorg00:14
herouxmaI see, well, xorg is relatively stable I've found00:14
herouxmawith years...I wonder if still maintained though00:15
herouxmajust kidding00:15
herouxmaStable release: 1.20 / 10 May 2018; 11 months ago00:16
autojackI have a service that uses init scripts, rather than systemd unit files. if I make changes to the init script and then start the service using 'systemctl start,' systemd notices that the init script has changed and tells me I should run 'systemctl daemon-reload.' I understand what daemon-reload does, but it is not clear to me what happens if I don't run it in this situation.00:17
autojackare my systemd unit files then not picking up the changes to the init scripts? that does not seem to be the case.00:18
=== warehouse is now known as cheesecake
AssociateXHello all00:33
=== cheesecake_ is now known as cheesecake
AssociateXCtrl+alt+F1 does not bring me to a VT. What is the solution?00:34
Bashing-omAssociateX: ctl+alt+F2 ? ... maybe F1 is the GUI ?00:35
rfmautojack, you need to run systemd-sysv-generator after editing the init scripts (it's normally done at boot)00:35
rfmautojack, possibly daemon-reload will run it for you, I haven't checked00:36
AssociateX@Bashing-om, ctl+alt+F2 no worky.00:37
=== SuperL4g is now known as SuperLag
rfmautojack, yup systemctl man page says daemon-reload will "rerun all generators"00:38
=== Noisette is now known as Plumette
Bashing-omAssociateX: Will take one with greater skills than I to know what is not taking place :(00:41
autojackrfm: thanks! but I still don't understand what happens if I *don't* do that. as far as I can tell, the changes to the init script still get picked up. or am I wrong about that?00:47
ChunkzZanyone around?00:47
ChunkzZI'm trying to do an ssh tunnel: ssh -N -D 1080 ayescott66@165.227.231.75 but I'm still seeing my default ip in deluge and other apps. 127.0.0.1:8112 and 127.0.0.1:808000:50
ChunkzZam I doing something wrong?00:51
rfmautojack, it may depend on just what change you are making in the init script,.  Since the generated .service runs the init script to start/stop/reload if you're just chaniging, say, args on the demon command, the changes will seem to take effect00:54
rfmautojack, other changes (like dependencies or the run levels it should start/stop in, would not take effect until the generator is run00:56
AssociateXHow do I access my VT?00:57
autojackrfm: thanks a lot for clarifying! in this case the service doesn't depend on any others, and I'm not changing the run level, so that explains why the changes seem to take effect on the systemd side.00:58
autojackmuch appreciated.00:58
ChunkzZanyone?01:01
qwebirc58543hi01:06
qwebirc58543my wifi only works if i unplug and replug the adapter... Has anyone ever experienced this?01:08
rfmChunkzZ, i've never used the -D forwarding, but it seems that specifying to forward port 1080 wouldn't (and shouldn't) affect any other ports so I don't see why you expected :8122 and :8080 to be affected.01:10
ChunkzZwhat?01:10
ChunkzZssh -L 8082:www.ubuntuforums.org:80 ayescott66@165.227.231.75 and it says it cannot chdir01:11
ChunkzZwth01:11
ChunkzZCould not chdir to home directory /home/ayescott66: No such file or directory01:12
ChunkzZwhat am I doing wronmg  rfm ?01:12
ChunkzZwrong*01:12
rfmChunkzZ, sounds like the user doesn't have a home directory on the remote system01:16
ChunkzZyeah I don't01:16
ChunkzZit's a server from a vpn provider01:17
ChunkzZrfm, all I want is traffic to go through localhost01:24
ChunkzZlike.. through localhost to the remote ssh tunnel.01:24
ChunkzZor is it the other way around?01:25
ChunkzZrfm, any ideas?01:27
rfmChunkzZ, well, ssh tunnelling will let you do that for specific ports, but it has to be able to log into the remote system, thus needs a (writable) home directory to get through login01:28
ChunkzZno.01:28
ChunkzZssh -N -D8112 ayescott66@165.227.231.75 that connects after I enter my password.01:29
ChunkzZrfm, ^01:32
ChunkzZIf I use my browser, my ip has changed to the ssh tunnel but I can't connect to localhost rfm01:33
rfmChunkzZ, what do you mean "my ip has changed?"01:35
ChunkzZlike I say.. not the ip from my isp.. it's the IP from the tunnel.01:36
rfm ChunkzZ what IP has changed, where, how are you observing that?  I still don't have an idea what you mean01:37
ChunkzZrfm, my damn external ip has changed from my isp's one01:37
ChunkzZsigh01:37
ChunkzZgoogling my ip[01:38
ChunkzZlol01:38
autojackChunkzZ: -D creates a SOCKS proxy listening on port 1080.01:58
autojackyou would need to tell your applications to then use that proxy in order to route their traffic through it.01:58
autojackor else set that as a system-wide proxy setting.01:59
ChunkzZyeah I think I need a systemwide proxy setting but that's proving to be hard autojack02:11
ChunkzZthe tunnel is no good because sab+ won't allow to use a proxy02:11
ChunkzZany ideas on a system wide proxy autojack ?02:12
autojackChunkzZ: well,  you also said "it's a server from a vpn provider." are you even able to open that SSH session or not?02:13
ChunkzZyeah I can02:13
ChunkzZbut...02:13
autojackok.02:13
ChunkzZthe tunnel is no good.02:13
autojackI don't know offhand how to set a system wide proxy in Ubuntu. I would expect it to be in the network config/control panel.02:13
autojackI don't know what sab+ is.02:13
ChunkzZI wish I could tunnel everything without using an app that supports proxies02:14
ChunkzZcan that be done autojack ?02:14
autojackalso, if you are using a VPN, why do you also need the SSH tunnel?02:14
ChunkzZbecause my isp is throttling openvpn02:14
ChunkzZ:/02:14
autojackweird.02:14
ChunkzZcan I just not tunnel everything on localhost?02:15
SonOFazagood morning. am i missing something or does the askubuntu.com website have no logout option?02:15
ChunkzZautojack, ^02:15
autojackI don't know what you mean by that. when you use SSH -D to create a SOCKS proxy, nothing will use it until you tell it to.02:15
ChunkzZautojack, yeah but basically, apps I use don't have a proxy setting to use it.02:15
autojackeither your app needs to have a proxy setting, or you need to set the proxy to be used system-wide in the network settings.02:15
autojackyeah so, system-wide proxy.02:16
ChunkzZdamn02:16
SonOFazaautojack: ++02:16
SonOFazaso when i just close the browser tab with askubuntu.com its secure enough?02:17
autojackChunkzZ: why "damn?" it should be 5 seconds of configuration setup.02:17
ChunkzZsocks_proxy="socks://ayescott66:passwordhere@46.23.78.25:1080/"02:22
ChunkzZbut my internet isn't working autojack02:22
ChunkzZsay bad port number02:22
autojackif you are using the SSH -D 1080 approach, you would want to set that config to just localhost:1080, no username or password.02:23
autojackand no public IP.02:23
ChunkzZnope, I'm using: nano /etc/environment02:24
ChunkzZso it's system wide02:24
autojackthat has nothing to do with what I am saying.02:24
autojackyour proxy is not listening on 46.23.78.25 and it shouldn't need a username and password. you are providing those when you open the SSH tunnel.02:24
ChunkzZwhat? no ssh tunnel no more bro02:25
autojackyou are confusing the shit out of me.02:25
ChunkzZwhy?02:26
autojackwhat are you trying to do? I understood that you were trying to route your internet traffic over an SSH tunnel to your VPN provider.02:26
ChunkzZno, I'm trying to do a system wide proxy.. the tunnel was ages ago.02:26
autojackok sorry, when I said tunnel I meant proxy. the -D. SOCKS proxy.02:26
autojackmy point stands. that proxy is going to listen on localhost, and is not going to need a username and password.02:27
ChunkzZbut it needs my user/pass.. right?02:27
ChunkzZhow else would it connect?02:27
autojackit isn't going to connect it for you. you have to run the 'ssh -D 1080 ...' command somewhere.02:27
ChunkzZso confused02:28
autojackthat is what opens the network connection to your vpn provider and creates the SOCKS proxy.02:28
ChunkzZyou've lost me brother02:28
autojackthat makes two of us.02:28
ChunkzZI'm not tunneling now. I'm trying to setup a system wide proxy.02:29
autojackok. where is that proxy going to send traffic? to your VPN provider?02:29
SonOFazawithout "ssh -D" you need an additional software that provides the proxy functionality02:29
autojackChunkzZ: perhaps you should read the ssh man page, specifically around the -D option. it might make things clearer for you.02:30
autojackas I said earlier, the -D option creates a local SOCKS proxy, listening on the port you specify, which will route traffic through the SSH session to the network you are SSHing into.02:31
autojackthat sounds like what you want.02:31
autojackonce you have that SSH connection created, you then need to tell your apps, or your whole system, to route traffic through the proxy. otherwise they will ignore it.02:31
linuxgeckohey guys, trying to install 18.04.2 desktop on my laptop with a busted screen. i have an external monitor, but it's not using it exclusively. as such, it's displaying thei installed prompts on the busted screen. how do i force it to switch?02:31
linuxgeckos/installed/installer/02:32
ChunkzZhow do I tell the whole system to do that autojack ?02:32
autojackChunkzZ: I don't mean to be rude, but have you googled for "ubuntu system wide proxy?"02:33
ChunkzZthat's defo what I want.02:33
ChunkzZyeah I have02:33
ChunkzZand it's broke my system02:33
ChunkzZlol02:33
ChunkzZcurl: (5) Could not resolve proxy: ayescott6602:33
autojackyeah, so the setting you pasted used some public IP, and a username and password. that makes no sense if you are using ssh -D to start up the proxy.02:34
autojackthat's why I told you to use localhost instead of the public IP, and leave out the username and password.02:34
autojackbut you need to first run the 'ssh -D' in a terminal somewhere. otherwise the tunnel is not running.02:34
autojacksorry PROXY02:34
autojackWHEN I SAY TUNNEL JUST CHANGE IT TO PROXY02:34
autojackfuck's sake02:34
ChunkzZlmao02:34
autojackanyway that's as good as I can explain it!02:35
autojackI've only done this a few thousand times over the last 20 years.02:35
autojackif I can't make it clear, well...02:35
autojackthe reason it broke your internet is because your system tried to route everything over a connection that didn't exist.02:36
ChunkzZssh -N -D 8112 ayescott66@165.227.231.7502:36
ChunkzZwhat part of that don't I need?02:36
autojackthat looks good if you run it in a terminal and it successfully connects you to that remote IP.02:36
ChunkzZyeah it's connected02:37
autojackbut when you said you configured socks_proxy="socks://ayescott66:passwordhere@46.23.78.25:1080/" that looks wrong to me. you are telling your system to connect to the SOCKS proxy at this IP: 46.23.78.2502:37
autojackinstead, it should be localhost.02:37
autojackbecause the SSH connection has the proxy listening for you on localhost.02:37
autojackand the SSH _proxy_ does not require a username and password. only your initial ssh command you already ran needed that.02:38
autojackso you can leave those out too.02:38
ChunkzZlike this? ftp_proxy=http://127.0.0.1@127.0.0.1:5050/02:41
ChunkzZautojack, ^^02:41
autojackthat looks weird to me, and it's setting an FTP proxy only instead of a SOCKS proxy.02:42
autojackso it is saying only send FTP connections through that.02:42
autojackand I don't know why it would be 127.0.0.1@127.0.0.1.02:42
ChunkzZso what should it be?02:43
autojackbased on what you pasted before (I don't know where you got that) I would do socks_proxy="socks://localhost:1080/"02:43
is_nullhi all, after apt upgrade it won't boot anymore: Failed to mount /var/lib/docker, when i try manually it fails because of unknown filesystem typebtrfs, i think i let the package maintainer version of a config like grub config or something and overwrote the kernel command line where was btrfs support for stage2 or something is that possible ?02:45

pipegeekSo, I'm trying to migrate a VM from virtualbox to libvirt/kvm on disco03:23
pipegeekI exported to ova and used virt-v2v to import into libvirt03:24
pipegeekwhen I try to run it from virt-manager, I get "Error starting domain... Could not open '/home/libvirt/images/my-vm-sda' Permission denied03:24
pipegeekI've steadily relaxed the permissions on that path until out of exasperation I did chmod -R 777 /home/libvirt03:24
pipegeekand still I am seeing the same error.03:25
pipegeekAny idea what is going on here?03:25
pipegeekthat path corresponds to a storage pool.03:25
pipegeekcould this be an apparmor thing?03:26
pipegeekit's gotta be apparmor.03:32
pipegeekexcept that stopping apparmor entirely doesn't seem to solve the problem03:38
is_nullpipegeek: should be in journal if apparmor ?03:40
pipegeekoh.  yes.03:41
is_nullpipegeek: no, i think you need to permission for libvirt user or something like that03:41
pipegeekand so it is.  And it is definitely apparmor, though I've theoretically updated the profile for libvirt to include that path03:41
pipegeekis_null: like I said, I chmodded it all 777.  All users should have access03:41
is_nullwell there's also acl that would come at play indeed03:42
pipegeekI also set the acl to allow that user03:42
pipegeekand I see apparmor="DENIED" for that path repeatedly in journalctl.03:42
pipegeekdoing aa-teardown unfortunately just causes virt-manager to complain that it can't query apparmor profiles03:43
pipegeekdoing systemctl restart apparmor fixed that, but then apparmor started blocking access agian.03:43
pipegeekbind-mounting that path into /var/lib/libvirt/images and then reconfiguring the vm to use that path fixed it03:49
pipegeekbut that's frustrating03:49

TJ-ygk_12345: one thing to check is that the dmesg link config is always the same when it comes up - flapping can be caused by auto-mdix problems, which could show up as the link negotiating different speeds/duplex/ etc08:03
TJ-ygk_12345: right - you've a timeframe when this started, so investigate what changes were made on the network at the time (change in config somewhere, new devices added, cables 'tided', cleaner pulled wire out, etc!)08:04

PeanutHi, good morning. I would like to distribute a newer version of the i40e driver (Intel network card) to the servers that I manage. As this is a kernel module, how would that conflict with the existing i40e driver in the Ubuntu kernel? Can I distribute the compiled module as a package, or should it be distributed as a DKMS ?09:17
TJ-Peanut: Yes, DKMS09:17
TJ-Peanut: DKMS will handle moving the built-in module out the way, and restoring it should the DKMS module be removed09:18
PeanutTJ-: OK, thanks. I found some information on making and distributing a DKMS, I'll see if I can work my way through that.09:18
TJ-Peanut: if you distribute the binary then you've got to ensure you build a new version and install it each time the kernel requires an upgrade - tha's what DKMS manages09:18
TJ-Peanut: if you need help shout out - it is pretty simply as long as the module code will build out-of-tree. Some modules have requirements to pull in private headers and therefore will fail to build09:19
PeanutTJ-: Yes, that's what I'm trying to prevent - having to build a new package for every kernel package. I hope that by the next LTS, this driver version will have made it into the regular Ubuntu kernel.09:20
TJ-Peanut: I use DKMS extensively to test modification to modules so I pull the code from the kernel tree into my /usr/src/<module>-<version>/ , create a dkms.conf there, and test09:20
PeanutOh, just found an i40e-dkms on github. Awesome.09:21
TJ-Peanut: your only challenge is if the kernel API/ABI and driver aren't in sync09:22
PeanutTJ-: They are, I've already built the module and tested it on a single server. But now I need an efficient way to roll it out over 80 or so servers.09:22
TJ-Peanut: sounds like a 5 minute job then :)09:23
PeanutTJ-: Ansible will make it a 5 minute job once I have the package. Although in retrospect, I wish I could have returned these network cards.09:24
TJ-Peanut: you mean you want to debianise the dkms source?09:25
PeanutA DKMS isn't distributed as a .deb? Bummer.09:26
TJ-Peanut: you just need to add a basic ./debian/ directory to the source with some basic files in. I'd highly recommend using the wireguard-dkms package as an example09:31
TJ-Peanut: that is: https://github.com/EggieCode/wireguard-ppa09:37
roboircwhats the difference between kubuntu and ubuntu? and which one does kwin work on?09:38
lotuspsychjeroboirc: discussions about ubuntu you can ask in #ubuntu-discuss09:38

PeanutTJ-: thanks, I was just dissecting the package. It seems that a DKMS can indeed be retrieved/installed with the standard Debian/Ubuntu packaging tools.09:40

awrighthi guys I need some help with ubuntu 18.04 and nginx with CORS I have followed guide after guide but feel like I end up with the same issue09:43
lotuspsychjeawright: the guides on linuxconfig are mostly clean, compare perhaps? https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-setup-the-nginx-web-server-on-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux09:45
awrightlotuspsychje: nginx is setup correctly its a CORS cross origin resource sharing that eludes me09:46
awrightso its not setup correctly per se09:46
lotuspsychjeawright: perhaps if you elaborate deeper on it, volunteers might have ideas here09:46
awrightI have a cors configuration that works for nginx v. 1.11.1 but doesnt work with nginx v 1.14.0 I have tried alot of the recommended workarounds and cant figure it out09:47
tomreynawright: how do you know "it does not work", what exactly does not work?09:48
tomreynand how is it supposed to work09:49
awright https://pastebin.com/8jb2Zb8x here is the configuration. the error is that even though the cors pre flight stuff is there i still receive errors saying the request header field token is not allowed by access-control-allow-headers in preflight response09:49
awrightthe application would allow the use of a javascript file that is being blocked by CORS currently09:50
awrighttomreyn: it should actually allow my application to communicate properly with algolia and it can't09:50
thsnrawright: which header is getting blocked? x-csrf-token?09:51
tomreynawright when you compare headers returned now with headers returned previously, what changed exactly?09:52
awrightthsnr: it says token, I thought it was x-csrf-token09:53
tomreyndon't test this from your application debugging whatever thing, but just making curl requests.09:53
tomreynhttps://securityheaders.com/ may also help if that's easier.09:55
awrighttomreyn: i see this command recommend to test: curl -H "Access-Control-Request-Method: GET" -H "Origin: https://www.google.com.au" --head http://www.example.com.au09:56

ekarlsoHi huys10:00
lotuspsychjewelcome ekarlso how can we help you?10:00
ekarlsoanyone here having issues with ubuntu 19.04 and lenovo laptops (I have a P1 which is very new) and sleep / suspend ? My laptop basically reboots or doesnt suspend properly10:00
lotuspsychjeekarlso: on lenovo's we reccomend checking if your firmware is up to date to avoid acpi issues as first10:01
awrightthsnr: checking that now10:02
tomreynawright: turns out i've fallen behind on those specs, would need to read up. so i can't help. it's obviously not really an ubuntu issue, just because you run some server which uses some modern web technique on ubuntu. but maybe awright can still help. you could also try #nginx (though it's also pretty unrelated there IMO) and some http related channels you can spot using !alis10:03
lotuspsychjeekarlso: some models might have firmware updates in the software centre10:03
tomreyni mean maybe thsnr can still help you, awright ;-)10:03
awrighttomreyn: thanks for help I do appreciate the effort10:05
tomreynekarlso: if you run this, it should return your specific lenovo model and current firmware version:   journalctl -b | grep 'DMI:'10:08
tomreyn"current" as in the one you have installed currently.10:08
ekarlsoDMI: LENOVO 20MES0YN00/20MES0YN00, BIOS N2EET35W (1.17 ) 12/21/201810:09
ekarlsolooks to be the latest tomreyn10:17
tomreynekarlso: no, the latest would be 1.21, released apr 2019: https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/LAPTOPS-AND-NETBOOKS/THINKPAD-P-SERIES-LAPTOPS/THINKPAD-P1-TYPE-20MD-20ME/20ME/20MES0YN00/downloads/DS50495610:17

tomreynlvfs depends on vendors cooperating10:18
ekarlsowell they have released stuff before there :/10:19
BluesKajHowdy folks10:19
thsnrawright: it also seems to me that nginx is only including the CORS headers for preflight requests. afaik they also need to be present for the actual request10:23
awrightok10:24
lotuspsychjeekarlso: after the firmware is up to date, you could also try an LTS version of ubuntu, to compare with the suspend issues on 19.0410:32
lotuspsychjeekarlso: if those are the same, you can deeper look into logs to troubleshoot10:33
ekarlsolotuspsychje: just tried, same issue on both, laptop seemingly goes into suspend with LED going off into the suspend fading cycle then it goes out of suspend without me doing anything10:34
ekarlsolotuspsychje: what stuff to look at ?10:34
lotuspsychjeekarlso: dmesg would be a good start10:34

tomreyni think ubottu's point is that you're asking a WSL specific question, qhich means you should be asking it in #ubuntu-on-windows or ##windows11:49
qwebirc91906 cfhowlett end goal is to set environment variables to install Golang: mkdir -p $HOME/go/bin echo "export GOPATH=$HOME/go" >> ~/.bash_profile echo "export GOBIN=\$GOPATH/bin" >> ~/.bash_profile echo "export PATH=\$PATH:\$GOBIN" >> ~/.bash_profile source ~/.bash_profile11:53

tomreynbeerstein: which, and why do you need to?13:19
beersteini need amd last opengl drivers on oder version of linux i had 4.5 now i got 3.513:26
pragmaticenigmabeerstein: Most of the focus here is on the applications, drivers, and os that is presently available through Canonical and Ubuntu's official software channels. Can you please explain what you are trying to do so it might be possible to provide you with better support or direct you to a more appropriate channel for help?13:29
kreyrenis `try ubuntu` running on ramfs ?13:34
kreyren-> can i remove USB stick and expect it to work?13:34
pragmaticenigmakreyren: The USB drive needs to remain attached to the system for the session13:34
kreyrenmeh13:35
pragmaticenigmakreyren: It only loads into RAM what it needs at the current moment. The system will lock up if something goes in search of an application not already in the ramfs13:35
kreyrenis it expected to lock up if USB stick is removed then?13:36
kreyrenend-user need said USB script to fix corruption13:36
kreyrenand it only boots try ubuntu atm13:36
pragmaticenigmakreyren: It might work out better for the end user to connect here directly instead of going by proxy13:37
kreyrenhe cant go by proxy since this is the only system he has13:39
kreyrenbut ty for info i have an idea13:40
pragmaticenigmakreyren: That's not what I said... I referred to you as the proxy. It would be better if this end user would directly connect to IRC themselves for assistance. There are plenty of way to connect via another computer or mobile device13:40
kreyrenworks for me, sent him here13:42

BonbonGuys! Help me again! Now I am trying to install Ubuntu again from the bootable flash drive. It gives me this warning `Error fsyncing/closing/dev/sda1: Input/output error`. Because of that, I can't install Ubuntu. Please guys, help me. Please13:45

kreyrenTLDR: he has /dev/sdb which he confirmed beeing his flash disk which is used to install ubuntu (https://i.imgur.com/Z1DLhqN.png) and which has https://i.imgur.com/hjM3NL7.png ... recommending to provide instructions to fix it so that it can be used to install ubuntu13:47
BonbonOk, then I ain't gonna install it there13:47
kreyrenalso recommending to verify that /dev/sda doesn't have important data13:48
BonbonOk, since the thesis of my sister is on her drive alreay, i'm ready to wipe anything in the sda13:49

Bonbonreally...13:51
kreyren>  Ok, since the thesis of my sister is on her drive alreay, i'm ready to wipe anything in the sda => dont be insane then13:51
leftyfbBonbon: make backups elsewhere. Remove ALL drives except the drive you are installing to and your install media13:51
cfhowlettfirst priority : data backup13:51
kreyrenor he can make a new partition using gparted that he has open already and install ubuntu on it13:51

cyberbobhi all14:20
cyberbobsomeone using azure-cli on ubuntu 18.04 ?14:20
cyberbobWhile installing, it takes forever and never progress Progress: [  4%] [######. for the last 10min or so . . .14:21
cyberbobkilled and tried like 5times and same issue, so thought to check if someone else faced same issue14:21
leftyfbcyberbob: how are you installing it?14:22
tdaslow repo maybe14:22
cyberbobtda, actually it downloads and takes forever on unpacking so i believe not related to slow repo (Unpacking azure-cli (2.0.64-1~bionic) over (2.0.64-1~bionic) ...14:23
cyberbob)14:23
leftyfbcyberbob: how are you installing it?14:23
cyberbobleftyfb, using official doc https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli-apt?view=azure-cli-latest14:24
leftyfbcyberbob: ok, you'll need to contact Microsoft for support. We cannot support their repo and software.14:25
YounderAZURE... how quaint. There is always Amazon Web serviseces (AWS) or google has their Cybernetes.14:30
pragmaticenigmaYounder: please stay on topic14:30
cyberbobThanks leftyfb, I'll try some other ways and then get back to azure support if needed :)14:33
leftyfbcyberbob: there is a snap for it: sudo snap install azure-cli14:34
Younderpragmaticenigma, Yeah with the overwhelming traffic on this channel we are headed for congestion.14:34
lotuspsychjeYounder: discussing goes to #ubuntu-discuss14:35
leftyfbYounder: there are guidelines for a reason. Take it up with the IRC council if you have concerns with the guidelines14:35
YounderI'll try #ubuntu-pedantic14:36
sappheirosis there something like iMessage or Google Hangouts that I can use in lubuntu 18.10 to message a macOS laptop?14:37
sappheirosdon't want to use hangouts.google.com because google documents crashes this i386 laptop14:38
sappheirosoh, and my mother refuses to use it14:38
sappheiros(i mean i can't just sign on to google hangouts to message her)14:38
* sappheiros didn't sleep well.14:38
* sappheiros looks into 'MessagePak'14:39
sappheiros*ck14:39
leftyfbsappheiros: google hangout is not google docs14:40
sappheirosi mean, i'm searching the muon package manager for 'messag' to see if there's any closs-platform service working with i38614:40
sappheirosleftyfb: yeah but i realized the reason i wasn't using it with her is she refuses Google products14:40
tomreynthere are xmpp clients, irc clients etc.14:40
leftyfbsappheiros: sounds like signal-desktop might be more her style14:41
Youndermost use hexchat here14:41
sappheirosis there signal for i386?14:41
sappheirosoh, she could get on hexchat, true ...14:41
leftyfbsappheiros: that I'm not sure. Though, with i386, your options are only shrinking as time goes on.14:41
sappheiroserm, maybe ...14:41
leftyfbsappheiros: I can guarantee you, a $5 Raspberry Pi computer would perform better than that i386 you've got there.14:42
sappheirosleftyfb: yeah. i decided to take the advice of ##linux, microsoft's visual studio code group, golem.network, and basically try not to buy any more cheap laptops14:42
sappheirosbut i can't get a new laptop for ~5 months14:42
sappheiroslol14:42
sappheirosleftyfb: so is the message here, "don't try to buy cheap laptops on amazon.com -- learn how to actually build one yourself"?14:43
popey_sappheiros: no, signal don't build for i38614:43
leftyfbsappheiros: I never said anything about building a computer yourself. Unless you mean a pi. Which doesn't require "building" a computer, just plugging in cables14:45
popey_sappheiros: what is the laptop spec / model?14:45
TJ-popey_: this came up yesterday in ##linux; it's core a 32-bit core-2 duo chip!14:47
popey_ok, so a bit old, but usable14:47
pragmaticenigmasappheiros: Most if not nearly all providers of messaging services offer very little if any support for a desktop computer. The few remaining clients out there are mostly hacked together attempts to connect to various services, with frequent bugs and crashes as the provider frequently changes their APIs to lock out unauthorized 3rd party clients.14:47
TJ-here's the link for the CPU itself, that confirmed it. I believe the make/model is something like Dell D620 https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/27233/intel-core-duo-processor-t2300-2m-cache-1-66-ghz-667-mhz-fsb.html14:48
pragmaticenigmasappheiros: The better option is to find a messaging platform that works via a mobile device cross platform. Signal, WhatsApp, and others offer secure messaging device to device, with the option to interface via a computer if needed14:48
sappheirosT2300 cpu, i think, not core 2 duo14:49
sappheirosyes, dell latitude d62014:50
sappheirosso basically IRC won out by default for desktop as messaging migrated to smartphones?14:50
sappheirosi kinda miss AIM and Yahoo! Messenger and MSN Messenger lol14:50
popey_whats the actual goal here?14:50
sappheirosyou could play minesweeper on MS....... i guess to message my mother's laptop on IRC now, is the solution we've come to, popey_14:51
sappheirosshe install hexchat, we message on freenode, problem solved. i guess.14:51
thsnrsappheiros: is text the only requirement or do you also want to send files, voice/video call, ...?14:51
sappheirospopey_: i was wondering if there was an open-source alternative to iMessage14:51
pragmaticenigmasappheiros: Just remember that IRC is NOT SECURE. Anyone on freenode can potentially intercept your messages14:52
popey_you could use bonjour14:52
TheSHAD0WHelp?  Doing a dist upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04, the screen died in the middle of the upgrade (changing sysctl).  No screens to reconnect to.  I'm running over ssh.  Anyone have ideas on how to reconnect?14:52
popey_ichat on the mac and a chat client on linux14:52
tdaeveryone's moved into their walled gardens. guess everyone's ok with a couple different chat services14:52

TJ-!info mumble | sappheiros14:52
ubottusappheiros: mumble (source: mumble): Low latency encrypted VoIP client. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.19-1ubuntu1 (bionic), package size 2447 kB, installed size 5263 kB14:52
TJ-sappheiros: you can also run a private mumble server, it supports text/voice and is very performant. I've run a server for several years. You'd just have the client on yours and your mum's systems14:53
sappheirosneat, thanks14:53
tomreynTheSHAD0W: so that's an ubuntu server you're upgrading? and you used "do-release-upgrade" to start the upograde?14:54
TJ-!info mumble-server | sappheiros14:54
TheSHAD0WYes.14:54
ubottusappheiros: mumble-server (source: mumble): Low latency encrypted VoIP server. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.19-1ubuntu1 (bionic), package size 587 kB, installed size 2676 kB14:54
TheSHAD0WIt was complaining about changes I'd made to etc/sysctl.conf, I was copying that info down to restare that, and then the screen session just died.14:55
tomreynTheSHAD0W: if you start that via ssh, a second ssh server is started listening on a different port (i forgot which, but we can look it up).14:55
TheSHAD0Wrestore *14:55
TheSHAD0WI'm still connected via ssh, and that port is currently blocked via firewall.  Is there a need to connect to that?14:55
tomreynTheSHAD0W: hmm, this sounds like maybe you accidentially pasted something into the screen session which included commands to kill the session14:56
TheSHAD0WI don't think so...14:56
TheSHAD0WBut it's possible.14:56
YounderTheSHAD0W, I use etckeeper. THat way I have arevision control system on /etc and cad see changes, restore old settings etc when I see fit.14:56
TheSHAD0WDon't have that, unfortunately.14:56
tomreynTheSHAD0W: i think the other ssh server is just there so you can still reconnect when the original ssh server is restarted / replaced during the upgrade.14:57
tdacheck top, see if the upgrade is still running. or try apt update14:57
TheSHAD0Wtomreyn: Yes, that's what I'd thought.14:57
TheSHAD0Wtda: The upgrade is still running, apt and dpkg are locked out currently.14:57
TheSHAD0WQuestion is, at the point where sysctrl.conf is being replaced, is the system in a bootable state?14:58
tomreynTheSHAD0W: but there should still be a screen session since the upgrade runs in a screen session if initiated over ssh, so if that vanished that's unusual.14:58
TheSHAD0WI can drive 25 mines to get to the main console if I have to.14:58
TheSHAD0Wtomreyn: IKR?14:58
tomreynhow did you check for terminal multiplexer sessions?14:59
TheSHAD0Wscreen -list on both root and my user accounts.14:59
TheSHAD0Wdrive 25 miles * :-P14:59
tomreyn"sudo screen -list" should have listed it15:00
Guest48Hi, not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but on ubuntu 18.04.2 (LTS), despite the latest gnome-online-accounts being installed, the online accounts tab in Settings is empty, it doesn't show different types of accounts, just "Add an account" and underneath that, a white box with a the three little black squares in the middle15:00
popey_Guest48: is it a clean install?15:01
tomreynTheSHAD0W: is there anything in /var/run/screen ?15:01

Guest48thanks popey_, I entered the command (including the ` at start and end) and it is now sort of thinking things over, no result so far15:07
popey_no, don't use the `15:07
popey_Guest48: kill it, and run without those15:07
hggdhgrep Younder15:08
lordcirth_popey_, in future it would be safer to use single quotes ',  not backticks15:08
popey_lordcirth_: force of habit15:08
TheSHAD0WSo, in the middle of do-release-upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04, screen session terminated and cannot be resurrected, it's stuck with a lot of packages half-installed...  Process is still outstanding, I doubt the system is in a bootable state.  How do I recover from this?15:09
Younderhggdh, ?15:09
Guest48it says the following packages will be installed: aisleriot cheese gnome-mahjongg gnome-mines gnome-sudoku libgnome-games-support-1-3 libllvm6.0 libreoffice-pdfimport libreoffice-style-breeze notification-daemon shotwell shotwell-common   ubuntu-web-launchers xserver-xorg-input-all xserver-xorg-input-wacom15:09
tomreynTheSHAD0W: i guess your best way forward is to review the the process tree, identify the process which is probably waiting for input, and kill it. then keep watching the process tree and see to it that all processes in volved in the release upgrade quit. once that's done, review your sources.list file, see where it points to, and if it still points to the previous release, just start the release upgrade again. if it already points to the new15:10
tomreynrelease, use    apt update && apt -f install && apt full-upgrade   to complete the upgrade (at least the most critical part of it).15:10
popey_Guest48: good, so you did have some missing packages15:10
hggdhYounder: wrong command, sorry -- forgot to "/" at the beginning15:10
ills15:10
ilhello15:10
lordcirth_il, hi15:10
tomreynTheSHAD0W: but the better and cleaner approach there is a new install really, so i recommend that.15:10
ili cant login to my ubuntu15:10
iland cont use tty15:10
Guest48popey_ mostly stuff about games though... I'll try to browse through apt show of that list and see which one is the relavent one.15:10
popey_TheSHAD0W: you should be able to kill the upgrade and "dpkg --configure -a" to make it continue15:11
ilwhen i login in tty its run a dm15:11
popey_Guest48: well, you ideally should just let all of them install15:11
tomreyn!enter | il15:11
ubottuil: Please try and keep as much of your info as possible on ONE line - easier to follow for everyone.15:11
TheSHAD0Wtomreyn: The process that it's specifically hanging on is a less session showing the diff of sysctl.conf.  I haven't killed that yet because it will then hang on dpkg asking whether to replace it with the installers version, and killing that would derail the entire upgrade.15:11
popey_TheSHAD0W: nah, killing it can be continued as I mentioned above15:11
TheSHAD0WLet me try that.15:12
lotuspsychjeil: to be able to help you, we need more details like ubuntu version, kernel version, graphics card chipset,..15:13
TheSHAD0WOkay, it's now hung on dpkg.  Shall I kill that?15:13
popey_TheSHAD0W: the dpkg that was already running or the one you started?15:13
tomreynil: also discuss what changed between when it worked and now.15:13
YounderIs this a good time to mention 'killall' that allows you to give the name of the process. (If there are several it kill's all hence the name.)15:13
TheSHAD0WThe one that's part of the dist-upgrade.15:13
popey_I would kill dpkg and start it again with --configure -a, yes TheSHAD0W15:13
TheSHAD0WRoger.15:14
popey_Younder: stop15:14
TheSHAD0WIt opened a new dpkg session.15:14
TheSHAD0WI think it's undoing the upgrade.15:14
popey_no15:14
popey_it wont15:14
TheSHAD0WIt says dpkg --auto-deconfigure15:15
popey_that's not what I said to run :)15:15
TheSHAD0WI haven't run anything, just killed.15:15
TheSHAD0WIt was started by the dist-upgrade process.15:15
popey_ah okay. is it killed now?15:15
TheSHAD0WIt looks like it may have restarted itself.  Letting it run a bit longer...15:16
ilok , guys when i login my ubuntu with sddm its just show me a black screen and anfter a sec i go back to sddm login page , and again and again this happend , and when i try login in tty its happend like in login page sddm , now i am use live boot to come here , please help me :(((15:16
TheSHAD0WLooks like dpkg is doing stuff right now via top, not gonna interrupt it right now.15:16
ili use kubuntu 18.02 lts before its works but now its dont work , i have to many de15:18
Younderil do you use a NVIDIA drives?15:18
ilno15:18
popey_TheSHAD0W: nice15:18
TheSHAD0WOkay, it looks like the dist-upgrader bailed out.15:18
Younderil well usually when this happens, you have installed a new graphics driver and the compiler hasnt compiled in the modifications to the kernel. The two have to be in sync.15:20
TheSHAD0WNow running dpkg...  And it died, "processing was halted because there were too many errors"15:20
popey_TheSHAD0W: more than one is too many errors usually :)15:20
deancHi. I am running the following command sudo chown <myuser> foldername/ but the folder remains owned by root15:20
deancno errors or anything15:20
ilhow can install new graphic driver15:21
TheSHAD0WRunning apt-get install -f15:21
ilits works before i logput15:21
ilout15:21
popey_TheSHAD0W: i wouldn't. I would dpkg --configure -a, to make it finish what it was doing15:21
TheSHAD0WLOL too late.15:22
tomreynil: what do you mean by "when i login in tty its run a dm"? what does 'dm' stand for? what haopens exactly when you switch to a text terminal (tty) and login?15:22
popey_Why ask for help then not take it :(15:22
Guest48popey_ i did the 'sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop^' command and then I did sudo apt update && sudo apt upgradeand it installed a bunch of additional samba stuff.15:23
TheSHAD0WOkay, well, dpkg is now reporting everything completed...15:23
Guest48or rather, it upgraded a bunch of samba stuff15:24
tachikomasDid you read before upgrading anything ?15:24
=== SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_Afk
TheSHAD0WOkay, so dpkg is reporting nothing left to do, dpkg --configure -a returns with no comment.  aot-get upgrade reports a crapload of upgrades which I'm hesitant to do right now.  Shall I try a reboot?15:27
tachikomasTheSHAD0W: What are you trying to do ?15:27
TheSHAD0Wapt-get upgrade *15:27
tachikomaswhy ?15:27
TheSHAD0Wtachikomas: Had a distribution upgrade that went awry.15:27
pragmaticenigmaTheSHAD0W: You have a back up ... right?15:27
TheSHAD0WLOL15:27
TheSHAD0WYou have a point.15:28
tachikomasmhh, so what is the problem now ?15:28
tachikomasyou dist upgrade, it didnt work15:28
TheSHAD0WNo idea if the system is in a bootable state.15:28
tachikomaswell15:28
tachikomasdo you have stuff in /boot ?15:28
tachikomasinitrd kernel etc ...?15:28

qwebirc65317leftyfb thanks, but seems very complex to partititon hard drive to install linux..15:48
popey_qwebirc65317: an alternative is to use it in a Virtual Machine, such as VirtualBox or VMWare15:49

qwebirc65317popey, hmm but isnt that like WSL?15:49

lordcirth_qwebirc65317, no need to repeat your question. What about the choice is confusing?17:01
jcottonlordcirth_: he was adding some information to it17:01
jcottonnot just a straight repeat17:01
lordcirth_Ah, true17:01
qwebirc65317because if it is in Virtualbox why is there option of erasing harddisk? i dont want to erase harddisk just install ubuntu in virtualbox17:01
jcottonb/c there's a virtual harddisk17:01
jcottonthat the MV sees17:01
lordcirth_qwebirc65317, it's the virtual hard drive inside the VM.17:02
qwebirc65317are you sure? if true harddisk is erased it will be catasthrophe17:02
lordcirth_qwebirc65317, yes. That's how VM's work.17:02
jcottonit can't see the actual disk17:03
OerHeksqwebirc65317, as you can reinstall that vm, that option is valid17:03
lordcirth_qwebirc65317, VM's emulate hardware. The "hard drive" is actually a file on your real hard drive.17:03
qwebirc65317ok17:04
qwebirc65317so i choose the erase hardisk option then?17:04
jcottonyes17:04
qwebirc65317lordcirth i opened the VM again and that option was not there anymore so i guess was install, next step is: "After a successful installation we have to remove our installation .iso image from the virtual optical drive before we reboot.

tewardChunkzZ: you configure that in the proxy string...19:37
ChunkzZ?19:37
tewardhttps://user:password@proxy:PORTNUMBER/19:37
ChunkzZlmao19:37
leftyfbChunkzZ: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/TransparentProxy-6.html19:37
teward^ general 'functional' behavior for a general proxy, same applies for SOCKS proxies you just need to append port numbs to the strings.19:37
Ben64uh the link leftyfb says how to do it, with ports, and it's not just apt19:37
tewardalternatively, DNAT as was suggested19:37
tewardand that's global19:37
ChunkzZI'm lost19:38
leftyfbChunkzZ: follow the last link I gave you.19:39
ChunkzZI am19:39
ChunkzZdoesn't work left19:42
ChunkzZleftyfb,19:42
ChunkzZTry `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.19:42
ChunkzZBad argument `nl.torguardvpnaccess.com'19:42
tewardwell yeah you can't do that in DNAT/SNAT19:42
tewardyou need the IP(s) themselves.19:42
leftyfbChunkzZ: you need an ip, not host19:42
leftyfbChunkzZ: 88.202.177.19919:42
tewardfunny I get 88.202.177.184 for that lookup19:43
tewardand other ones19:43
leftyfbteward: it's regional I think19:43
ChunkzZBad argument `88.202.177.199'19:43
leftyfbteward: I get different ip's from different hosts19:43
* leftyfb sigh19:43
ChunkzZfrom: root@odroidxu4:/etc/openvpn# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -s ! 88.202.177.199 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 88.202.177.199:109019:44
leftyfbChunkzZ: may I ask why you're doing this? Why do you need a web proxy for all your traffic? It's not what it's meant for really19:44
leftyfbodroid?19:44
ChunkzZbecause I can't use a vpn because my isp throttles it.19:44
=== Noisette is now known as Plumette
leftyfbChunkzZ: it's not supported here, but maybe look into https://www.wireguard.com19:46
zubuntuhi19:47
leftyfbChunkzZ: wireguard is a different protocol than openvpn or ipsec. I'm guessing your ISP hasn't fingerprinted the traffic to throttle yet19:47
zubuntuhow to enable firewall in ubuntu?19:47
leftyfbzubuntu: are you behind a NAT(router)?19:47
zubuntui am using normal adsl connection19:48
zubuntui mean something like windows firewall19:48
tonahello eveyone19:48
tonahow could I know if my repositories are connected19:49
tonahow could list my repositories19:49
zubuntutona: i wish i knew..19:50
leftyfbzubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW  though, if you are behind a router, you don't really need it19:50
leftyfbtona: open up the "software and updates" program19:50
tonabut how could I do it using the console19:50
bb36etona `apt update` will try to fetch from each repo19:51
leftyfbtona: grep -v -- "#" /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*19:51
zubuntuleftyfb: i have a modem but not sure if it protects good enough19:51
tonais there another way to list only the repositireoes on the console19:51
leftyfbzubuntu: on your pc, in a terminal, run: ip addr   # does it show an ip starting with 24.113? Or something like 192.168?19:53
zubuntu1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 100019:54
leftyfbzubuntu: please do not paste the entire thing here19:54
zubuntuinet 192.168...19:54
tonausing yum repo info give me ,  one response everything is connected  is there one similiar command for ubuntu19:54
leftyfbok, that is a private ip. You are protected behind a NAT'd router. There is no routing to your machine from the internet19:55
zubuntuoh good then19:55
zubuntuthx leftyfb19:55
leftyfbtona: apt-cache policy | grep http | awk '{print $2 $3}' | sort -u19:56
tonaok leftyfb it give me many http , but I tried to use curl url and told me server not found but it is retrieving packages , then something I am missing :) ?19:58
OerHeksusing yum repo info ???19:59
leftyfbtona: what exactly are you trying to accomplish?19:59
leftyfbOerHeks: he was giving a comparison19:59
zubuntuis there any cleanup app like windows disk cleanup?19:59
tonaI am trying to check the connnectivity from each repositores in order to verify everythign is working19:59
leftyfbzubuntu: none that are suggested20:00
leftyfbtona: sudo apt update # this will verify everything is working20:00
OerHekszubuntu, bleachbit is a heavy tool, use with caution https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/02/download-bleachbit-2-020:00
tonaok and how could I check or compare the response of this output command20:01
zubuntuOerHeks: i used that once and erased many things necessary. i am afraid to use it20:01
zubuntuso is there any way to clean unnecessary things recommended?20:02
OerHekszubuntu, that is why we warn against it, without knowledge it is a dangerous tool indeed20:02
lordcirth_zubuntu, what do you want to do? Free up space?20:02
leftyfbtona: sudo apt -q update ; status=$? ; if [ "$status" = "0" ] ; then echo "Everything is fine!" ; else  echo "Something isn't working correctly" ; fi20:02
linuxgeckois there a way from console, that i can force a display shift from extend to mirror?20:02
leftyfblinuxgecko: randr20:03
zubuntulordcirth_: not only freeup just want to remove if there are unnecessary things behind20:04
lordcirth_zubuntu,20:04
lordcirth_zubuntu, ncdu can help20:04
zubuntui mean if there is a way to do it on terminal it is ok even20:05
zubuntuno need program or not recommended app20:05
zubuntuor a way to fix/delete broken things20:05

ChunkzZteward, you know much about danted?20:13
ChunkzZI'm trying it on ubuntu 18 before I do my server.20:13
oddcoderis this the right place to ask about upstart ?20:15
ChunkzZor anyone else?????20:16
oddcoderI wanted to upstart a service whose conf is not in init dir20:16
leftyfbChunkzZ: that will not help your issue with routing all traffic on your client through a proxy20:16
leftyfboddcoder: what version of ubuntu?20:17
jbasehello20:17
ChunkzZleftyfb, danted is a proxy server, no?20:17
leftyfbChunkzZ: correct20:17
ChunkzZso then IT should be fine./20:17
lordcirth_oddcoder, what Ubuntu version? Isn't upstart 14.04 and earlier?20:17
leftyfbChunkzZ: that will not help your issue with routing all traffic on your client through a proxy server. Regardless of which server you run20:17
ChunkzZleftyfb, then what will?20:18
oddcoderlordcirth_: it is not that I am using old ubuntu20:18
leftyfblordcirth_: did you look at wireguard?20:18
leftyfboddcoder: what version of ubuntu?20:18
oddcoderI installed upstart because that is what the project was using20:18
lordcirth_oddcoder, don't change your init system just for one program. Adapt what the project does to systemd.20:18
oddcoderI guess it is 16.0420:18
jbaseSomehow I ended up with a box with a different network adapter than that used during installation. So, I have no connectivity. Current network adapter is Atheros E220x killer gigabit adapter (1969:e091). Kernel is 4.4.0.146-generic. I need to enable (or download) the ALX network driver module. How can I do it ?20:18
jbaseplease :)20:19

oddcoderI wanted to avoid that xD20:19
ChunkzZyes20:19
ChunkzZmy vpn provider doesn't use it20:20
leftyfbChunkzZ: If you require the proxy services provided by your VPN provider, what you do think running your own proxy server is going to give you?20:20
jbasePlease help: is it possible to extract a certain driver from an Ubuntu distro, to install it on a target machine? I am missing the alx networking driver module20:21
leftyfbChunkzZ: https://greycoder.com/a-list-of-wireguard-supporting-vpns-in-2019/20:21

elm_do Ubuntu smartphones still exist?20:21
leftyfbelm_: no20:21
oddcoderbzck20:21
oddcoderleftyfb: confirmed Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS20:22
leftyfbChunkzZ: danted is a proxy server20:22
oddcoderso you suggest moving that app to systemd20:22
oddcoder?20:22
oddcoderis there manuals for the porting or somethign ?20:22
leftyfboddcoder: as suggested, why not create a systemd unit calling the same binary as the upstart script?20:22
lordcirth_oddcoder, it shouldn't be complicated. it's just starting and stopping a program.20:22
oddcoderI never used upstart or systemd before20:23

elm_leftyfb: can I hack an existing Android smartphone to run with ubuntu?20:23
jbaseok, i don't mind partaking in your conversation20:23
leftyfbChunkzZ: they do provide a client, but I think it would only work with the dante server. I also do not think it's going to provide you anything more than what you have now. Also, there's dante no client provided by ubuntu.20:24
leftyfbelm_: It's not supported here20:24
OerHeksjbase, installing an ubuntu driver on what exactly?20:24
lordcirth_jbase, are you sure you don't have the driver? 4.4 should have nearly every gigabit driver20:24
elm_leftyfb: is that software still developed or not? what does that mean: not supported here?20:25
leftyfbelm_: it is not developer anymore, nor supported here. As in, it's offtopic here.20:25
jbaselordcirth, problem is this installation was done on a different box with a Realtek network adapter. I had to move it to another mobo.20:26
daxelm_: try /join #ubports20:26
jbaseSo the driver is missing. If I try a fresh install, network card is immediately detected and working20:26
leftyfbjbase: why do you say the driver is missing? Are you sure the NIC name didn't just change and you need to update your netplan settings?20:27
jbaseI need to force the system to update network drivers according to current setup20:27

apb196316.04 My root was 10GB (sdb1) and the system warned me I was low on space - 100MB left.  So I decided to resize it larger.  My /usr/local was mounted on another partition, also 10GB (sdb2 I think), I had another partition with 30 GB, unallocated.  And additional space/partitions carved up in various ways probably not relevant.  I backed up /usr/local and then deleted partition 2 on someone's advice.  After, I could no longer boot.20:33
apb1963 I'm typing from a live disk.  The partition table appears to have merged all of the contiguous unallocated space into one partition (i.e. 10GB + 30GB=40GB).  On someone else's advice I attempted to restore the partitions to how they were originally.  This result follows.  You'll notice on the first entry I typed in the wrong info due to sleep deprivation but finally accepted the default.  The next entry it wouldn't let me enter20:33
apb1963and I finally went with the default as others recommended.  I ended up with this: https://snag.gy/pcVRd2.jpg   Now I've been told to reorder my partition labels... and I decided to come here instead to talk to people that know partitions and the tools inside & out.20:33
lordcirth_apb1963, is this a virtual machine?20:34
apb1963lordcirth_: no20:34
lordcirth_apb1963, why only 40GiB then?20:34
apb1963apb1963: because of math20:34
apb1963lordcirth_: because of math20:34
apb1963gotta stop typing to myself20:35
lordcirth_Anyway, with that little space you can't really afford to divide things up too much. It's probably simplest to reinstall and use only /.20:35
apb1963next!20:35
lordcirth_18.04 will use a swap file, so that's flexible20:35
apb1963someone that bothers to read what I wrote please20:36
lordcirth_apb1963, I did read it. Why can't you reinstall?20:36
jbaseleftyfb, is it possible to find a module by pci id and do insmod on it20:36
jbase?20:36
jbaseor is there some driver repository for ubuntu? the kernel DOES have this driver, but it's not installed during installation20:37
jbaseI install using dpkg -i linux-image*.deb linux-headers*.deb20:37
leftyfbapb1963: I read what you wrote. Lose the attitude and reinstall and restore from backup20:37
is_nullapb1963: there is no such thing of "merging all of the contiguous unallocated space", there's j"just more contiguous space when you remove a partition from the table"20:37
is_null*next to contigous space20:38
is_nullapb1963: contigous spaces does not deserve an entry in the partition table that stores the list of partitions including start end sectors20:38
apb1963When you take two partitions and end up with one partition that includes both, I call that merging.20:39
apb1963I had 1 10GB partition and one 30GB partition.  I now have 1 40GB partition.  That, is a merger.20:40
is_nullapb1963: also post your fstab20:40
is_nulllordcirth_: you don't reinstall linux20:41
is_null*need to20:41
leftyfbapb1963: you mean you deleted the 30G partition and expanded that 10g. That is a deletion and expansion. Merging would not require deletion and restoration of data20:41

apb1963root@kubuntu:~# journalctl -D /mnt/var/log/journal -b -1 | nc termbin.com 999921:16
apb1963Using --boot or --list-boots with --file, --directory or --merge is not supported.21:16
TJ-apb1963: what version of kubuntu live are you using? That should work on 18.0421:16
apb19631621:16
TJ-apb1963: Arghhh!21:16
apb1963TJ-: could have sworn I mentioned it... sorry21:17
TJ-apb1963: you did, but I thought we were talking about the broken install :)21:17
TJ-apb1963: lets try an alternative: "tail -n 1000 /mnt/var/log/kern.log | nc termbin.com 9999 "21:18
apb1963TJ-: that's more my speed.  :D  https://termbin.com/iwt721:19
TJ-apb1963: nothing helpful there, it is all just network DHCP21:21
TJ-apb1963: lets go back to you describing where it gets to. 1. Does GRUB start? 2. Does GRUB load the kernel? 3. Does the kernel start to boot?21:22
apb1963TJ-: just to be clear....  the broken install is ubuntu 16.04.  I'm running a kubuntu 16.04 live disk.  The 18.04 ubuntu that sits there is in an unremembered state - i.e. I don't remember, but I do know I wasn't ready to upgrade, that was a bit of a test.21:22
apb1963TJ-: I'll have to reboot to be 100%, but I believe grub starts... I don't think the kernel loads but again... I was half asleep at the time.  Shall I reboot?  I was trying not to since I'd lose all my pastes but I think you have the relevant ones.21:24
TJ-apb1963: we could experiment by using QEMU virtual machine to boot the broken install, that way you can see where it gets to and repeatedly test it without physically rebooting the PC21:24
apb1963TJ-: sounds good.  I've never used it though.21:24
TJ-apb1963: give me a moment to figure out the command you need here21:26
apb1963TJ-: this seems reasonable: https://www.how2shout.com/how-to/qemu-ubuntu-tutorial.html21:28
ChunkzZanyone know how to use openconect with tcp/udp? I can connect with "iphere:22" but idk if it's using tcp/udp. I need udp.21:30
TJ-apb1963: yes, but doesn't cover what I want to do, so looking at my notes. We want to add a serial console and capture it to a log file21:31
TJ-apb1963: as well as the other options we'd need "-serial tcp:127.0.0.1:9999 -monitor stdio" and have a separate process doing "nc -l -p 9999 | tee boot.log" - and on the kernel command-line we'd have to add "debug console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8"21:34
apb1963TJ-: kewl  give me a minute to put that together21:35
AdmiralAsshatHello! Can anyone enlighten me as to what Ubuntu is doing on the backend to let you execute a java binary natively on the command-line without invoking the java interpreter?21:37
TJ-AdmiralAsshat: binfmt21:37
ryuoAdmiralAsshat: it still is using the java interpreter. it's just like an automatic shebang line.21:38
ryuoAdmiralAsshat: using binfmt, a feature that identifies file types by some magic byte sequence and can execute the correct program to run it.21:39
AdmiralAsshatTJ-, so if I wanted to dupe the behavior on another Linux OS that doesn't have it, what would you recommend? An alias/script like so?  `java -jar myJar.jar $@` ?21:39
ryuoAdmiralAsshat: if you need a command to be portable, write the full one out. don't rely on kernel behavior to be present. it's a configuration option.21:40
apb1963is anyone else following my conversation with TJ and wants to see the rest?  If so... message me, we're going to a private channel so as not to disturb others here anymore.21:40
TJ-AdmiralAsshat: it uses the kernel's binfmt_misc support, look that up21:40
AdmiralAsshatI unfortunately have to maintain compatibility with a python script that expects /usr/bin/foo to be able to execute directly, as if it were on Ubuntu. So if I need it to work on Fedora, I'm expecting that I need /usr/bin/foo to be a symbolic link to /usr/bin/foo.sh that would then call java and all the param options, yeah?21:41
ChunkzZanyone know how to use openconect with tcp/udp? I can connect with "iphere:22" but idk if it's using tcp/udp. I need udp.21:42
ryuoAdmiralAsshat: why a symlink? you can use a shebang script. those are usually enabled on Linux.21:42
ryuolargely guaranteed outside of embedded Linux which might disable it for some reason.21:42
TJ-!info binfmt-support | AdmiralAsshat21:43
ubottuAdmiralAsshat: binfmt-support (source: binfmt-support): Support for extra binary formats. In component main, is optional. Version 2.1.8-2 (bionic), package size 52 kB, installed size 207 kB21:43
AdmiralAsshatryuo, yeah, it could be a script. Do you think the one-liner above will pass muster?21:43
AdmiralAsshatIf a script will work for Fedora users, I'd probably prefer to do that rather than add another dependency.21:44
ryuoAdmiralAsshat: probably. be sure to use exec with it or you'll have a shell hanging around for no good reason.21:44
ryuoapb1963: sure?21:44
AdmiralAsshatryuo, TJ-, thanks for your help. I'll probably just go the script route.21:47
ryuoAdmiralAsshat: most portable option. binfmt is a convenience.21:48
ryuoAdmiralAsshat: for it to work, each system would have to be configured to do the same.21:48
ryuobut shebang scripts are almost always available and require no system configuration.21:48
AdmiralAsshatThanks!21:49

jbaseSo... Im back22:53
jbasethe problem I am getting is network driver lost when installing another kernel22:53
jbaseIs there a way to force installation of a specific driver when installing a kernel?22:53
tomreynjbase: usually, network interface drivers come with the kernel. there are exceptions. which hardware (NIC), ubuntu version and kernel version is this about?22:57
jbasethe driver I need DOES come with the kernel, I cant make my machine install it22:57
jbaseit's networking drivers. They are normally installed on fresh install.22:58
jbaseBut I moved the harddisk from another machine which had a different network adapter.22:58
jbaseSo i have no connectivity on new machine22:58
jbaseIf I install fresh from usb stick, it's working. If i install with dpkg -i linux-image-nn.deb, its not getting installed!22:59
tomreynif this NIC driver is supported by linux, then it should work out of the box, even if you moved disks around.22:59
jbaseyes, I moved the disks, but the machine where it was installed, did NOT have this network adapter.22:59
tomreynif you need a separate module, which needs to be built for the very kernel version you have, then that will need to be built.23:00
jbaseso it's not activated in this install. How can I activate it? module name I need is "alx"23:00
jbaseit's atheros network adapter.23:00
tomreynalx is the Qualcomm Atheros AR816x/AR817x PCI-E Ethernet Network Driver23:01
jeremy31jbase, alx has been part of the kernel for years23:01
tomreynright23:01
jbasejeremy31, yes it is! but its absent if you move the disk from the machine that didn't have that adapter during installation!23:01
tomreynand on linux you don't need to install new drivers when you moved the mouse pointer23:02
jbaseI've previously had exactly the same problem with rtl8168 card, but I found a separate install script for it.23:02
jeremy31jbase, it should work as nothing is really saved, hardware is scanned during boot23:02
jbaseanyway, I have no idea why it's not installed automatically, can you help me out? :)23:02
ChunkzZleftyfb, you around?23:03
tomreyncheck your logs, reconsider answering the questions i asked above.23:03
jbaseIf I do a fresh install from usbstick, it's working!23:04
leftyfbChunkzZ: ?23:04
ChunkzZleftyfb, my isp does support wireguard. I've just set it up but still seeing my isp's external ip. is that normal?23:04
ChunkzZmy vpn*23:04
leftyfbChunkzZ: where you you seeing your isp's external ip?23:05
ChunkzZI followed this:https://www.ckn.io/blog/2017/11/14/wireguard-vpn-typical-setup/23:05
ChunkzZcurl icanhazip.com23:05
leftyfbChunkzZ: #wireguard might be a good place for you to ask23:06
jeremy31jbase: The only reason I can think of is that you may have blacklisted alx in /etc/modprobe.d or there was a regression in the kernel23:09
jbasejeremy31 I'll check that. But the alx dir is absent from /lib/modules/*/kernel/net/23:10
jbaseit's supposed to be there, right?23:10
jeremy31jbase: check in terminal "modinfo alx"23:10
jbasemodule alx not found23:11
leftyfbjbase: modinfo alx23:11
tomreynwell, if you'd run ubuntu and an ubuntu kernel, you'd have it.23:12
jbasewell, I see ath_pci is blacklisted23:13
jbasenot sure it's the one23:13
Arnaud2hi nerds23:13

tomreynjbase: it will depend on this one, yes.23:14
jbasetomreyn: should I run anything after removing this line for it to come in effect?23:15
Arnaud2as in booting from the stick23:16
tomreynArnaud2: so what *is* your question?23:16
Arnaud2Mind you, I have a new computer -dell- apparently, I cannot boot from the USB stick23:16
jbaseoh, update-initramfs, I remember :)23:16
tomreynjbase: modprobe alx23:16
xamithanUh most all new computers should boot from usb23:17
Arnaud2well this one doesnt23:17
xamithanWell what happens when you try23:17
Arnaud2and there s no need to be rude23:17
Arnaud2Well.. Actually, my first version was Kali as for my studies23:18
Arnaud2but then I installed a lite Ubuntu23:19
