[00:11] I followed a guide and made a .deb package. How can I submit it to be included in the Ubuntu repositories? [00:11] I think it's a hot mess! But I tested it and it does appear to work right now. [00:14] running ubuntu 18.04, trying the 2nd answer located here, python script in /bin/myscript.py isn't running. does it also need to be executable even if i call "python /bin/myscript.py" ? https://askubuntu.com/questions/814/how-to-run-scripts-on-start-up [00:15] ekaj: what errors do you get? [00:15] deadmund: You may want to start with searching and finding documentation that readily available: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Upstream [00:16] well i'm used to centos and there being a /var/log/cron log, but i don't see that file. also, i don't see the output in ps [00:16] so no errors that i've found yet sarnold [00:16] pragmaticenigma: thanks [00:16] ekaj: aha, cron usually mails errors to people, look in /var/spool/mail/root or similar [00:17] hold on [00:17] ekaj: which python version is your script targeting? Also, /bin is not where you should be placing your own stuff [00:17] in syslog i do see "CRON[413]: (root) CMD (python /bin/myscript.py &)" [00:17] 2.7 [00:17] it's currently in bin because i was following a different guide that didn't work [00:17] it's usually in /home/user [00:18] also nothing in /var/spool/mail [00:18] i went ahead and moved it back to /home and updated crontab [00:18] ekaj: try taking that & off [00:19] ekaj: You should be able to run a python script from your home folder. If I'm planning on something being more perm, I use /opt [00:19] rebooting, 1s [00:20] ekaj: Yes, sarnold is right... don't launch your script with "&" at the end until you have confirmed it is actually working, and for sure do not use & in a cron tass [00:20] *task [00:20] does anyone know how can i get the ip of a android phone connected thru kde connect from my computer? [00:21] no change removing the & [00:21] mattfly: Is the device connected via USB? [00:21] wifi [00:21] ekaj: does the script have any print statements? [00:21] ekaj: I think the systemd solution is more modern, maybe give it a try [00:21] pragmaticenigma yes [00:22] but it prints to a file as well [00:22] Ryvius: that's a nice suggestions, but we have to get the script executing first [00:22] ekaj: Is the script a direct copy from the CentOS box? [00:22] It executes if he runs it manually, yes? [00:22] Ryvius: no, it's not [00:23] pragmaticenigma no, no centos boxes were used. it was made on the box i'm trying to get it to run on boot [00:23] and yes it runs manually [00:23] So he's trying to autorun something that doesn't work at all? [00:23] ekaj: is it possible to post the script to paste.ubuntu.com? [00:23] the script runs and works fine [00:23] ekaj: or explain what the script does? [00:23] I didn't love how *one* line on crontab turned into multiple systemd files [00:23] essentially records video when a door is opened, uploads the script via scp when door closes, repeats [00:24] plus a bunch of error checking [00:24] so i noticed it's breaking when it tries to establish an ssh connection [00:25] ekaj: try adding something like writing the date to a file in /var/log/sarnold in the first or second line of the script -- maybe it's executing, but just not working when run through cron [00:25] it is executing, it's failing when it tries to establish an ssh connection [00:25] aha there we go :) [00:25] ekaj: what are you using to establish the SSH connection? A library or system call? [00:26] before i do the try/catch for my ssh connections i have an "Attempting ssh connection.." line, but nothing is written after that [00:26] paramiko [00:27] worst case scenario i can just autologin the user i think? But I'd prefer not to [00:28] ekaj: It might not be so much a difference in platforms as much as the progression of certain elements moving into userspace and attempts to ensure the system is secured when no user is active [00:29] ekaj: I'm not familiar with paramiko... I typically use subprocess to make an outgoing connection [00:30] i had assumed it was something userspace related === coffeeguy is now known as covfefe-guy === covfefe-guy is now known as coffeeguy [00:30] is there a way to just auto-login the user then? [00:31] ekaj: You can auto login a user... should be in the settings control panel, Users [00:31] no gui :p [00:31] oh [00:31] well... that's a bit trickier [00:31] intention is for this device (when it works) to just sit somewhere forever and do this [00:31] so didn't bother installing one [00:33] ekaj: I can understand that philosophy... the intention is for it to run as a system service though? [00:33] or "like" a system service [00:33] i don't know, i was just going to have the user run the process [00:33] doesn't matter which user [00:33] all of the paths in the file are hardcoded [00:34] ekaj: another possibility is to use incron or systemd units: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.path.html [00:34] i had just stumbled on this as well https://selivan.github.io/2017/12/27/console-autologin-systemd-ubuntu.html [00:35] ekaj: that way you could get the files a lot faster than waiting a full minute, *and* it wouldn't run the script every minute, 1440 times a day, just when needed [00:35] ekaj: in truth, if you could get that running, I suspect you could get your python script going [00:35] it doesn't run every minute, it runs a while true: loop and constantly runs [00:36] eek. that might be way worse, depending on what you're doing :) [00:36] it has to catch a door as soon as it opens, so if i had it on a timer i could potentially miss people [00:37] a reed switch is tied to some of the gpio pins on the pi [00:37] pragmaticenigma were you referring to the autologin? [00:38] ywa [00:38] yes [00:38] shoulda just bought a damn camera lol [00:38] :) [00:39] it's been fun though, learned quite a bit [00:39] ekaj: or look into the project "motion" which does a lot of that stuff [00:39] it doesn't need motion detection though.. i woulda used that one if it did [00:40] i use "motion" for my cameras to detect and record when it sense motion. I believe a camera can be configured to trigger with switches as well [00:40] the reason it's tied to a reed switch is that the only time people use this particular door is when something is being stolen, or an emergency [00:40] but traffic passes by it on a regular basis [00:42] kind of sounds like if it was working before... why change anything with the OS? [00:44] i had to manually run it before [00:44] also, this link worked, which is odd because i didn't set a password https://selivan.github.io/2017/12/27/console-autologin-systemd-ubuntu.html [00:48] well script runs but now there's a new error yay. [00:50] yay :D [00:53] interesting, receiving two errors, seems to maybe be some type of race condition [00:54] but anyways, my ubuntu specific part is solved, thanks all for the help [00:55] oh fixed it.. either the network service hasn't started yet is one cause, other cause is because i didnt' remove the script in root's crontab, so root made the file in /home/user/logfile.log, so it said permission denied and failed [00:56] when user tried to run [00:59] I recently installed the email client seamonkey and noticed that the icon does not remain in the dock after I close out of the app. I right-clicked the icon in the dock while seamonkey was running but there was no option to "add to favorites". Any ideas? [01:02] For context, this is SeaMonkey 2.49.4 on Ubuntu 19.04 x86_64 [01:13] The documentation is bit outdated. It mentions GNOME panel. [01:15] "gnome panel" it's been a while since I heard that one [01:16] elPuma, You're trying to add the launcher to the bar? [01:17] , uRock yes exactly [01:17] elPuma, This might give you a new gray hair or two. https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-create-desktop-shortcut-launcher-on-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux [01:19] , uRock word thanks. [01:20] elPuma, anytime [01:23] does the foo.desktop file have to be saved in `~/Desktop`? [01:25] whoops, ignore backticks. I ask because I try to remove or hide superfluous default directories so they don't clutter my home. But [01:28] elPuma, I'm looking. I am pretty sure they go somewhere else [01:28] this seems necessary. === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [01:32] elPuma, should be able to drop them in /usr/share/applications/ [01:32] That's where the rest of them are. [01:34] The .desktop files for the launcher icons are typically saved in /usr/share/applications/ ? [01:39] Update: Partial success. The icon is in the applications menu. So I can access it with the super button now. Still can't add it to the dock, but I'm good with this. I just wanted an easy option to launch the app in case I forgot the command I created for in .bash_aliases [01:39] elPuma: On xfce4 here - and yes /usr/share/applications/ :) [01:40] The logo is pretty ugly anyways lol [01:46] Wait nevermind. I can add to favorites from the super/applications menu. Everything is right again. It's weird how so much of what I learn about unix related tools stems from a desire to change some minor cosmetic thing, or to save a few keystrokes in bash === Vilegent is now known as kk4ewt [02:03] hunter [02:09] tomreyn any development for https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1833829 ?

[02:46] maxcell_: do you get any error messages? [02:47] sarnold, no it boots fine but when i type the command to show what's going on i only have MQ-Deadline and None activated. [02:47] I need bfq-mq or bfq for my rotate disk [02:47] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Reference/IOSchedulers [02:47] For Ubuntu 19.10 (Linux 4.20) onwards, multiqueue is enabled by default providing the bfq, kyber, mq-deadline and none I/O schedulers. [02:48] i don't have bfq here, only mq-deadline and none OerHeks [02:48] let me show you. [02:48] maxcell_: try "modprobe bfq" then try setting your scheduler again [02:48] sarnold, OerHeks https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/7PpZw6dPzt/ [02:48] sarnold, ok [02:49] yay worked [02:49] woot [02:49] how i can make bfq goes up on the boot? [02:49] thank you very much sarnold [02:50] hehe [02:50] maxcell_: sticking a file in /etc/modules-load.d/ with the module name will be enough to get it loaded, but I'm not sure if there's a similarly polite way to change it for all your devices automatically or not [02:51] sarnold, that is https://community.chakralinux.org/t/how-to-enable-the-bfq-i-o-scheduler-on-kernel-4-12/6418 an udev rule on this website to do that [02:52] maxcell_: oh cool! [02:52] i've used many times it works [02:53] you only need to make the code right by changing the deadline to mq-deadline and cfq to bfq [02:53] also the first bfq is actually mq-deadline [02:55] gonna reboot to test [02:58] sarnold, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Y6zSTkGjj6/ [02:58] huzzah! [02:58] o/ [02:58] thanks maxcell_ :) [02:58] i thank you haha [03:10] there is any way to activate top hot corner on ubuntu? [03:11] that's way outside my experience, but there's some extensions on https://extensions.gnome.org/# that mention hot corners and hot dogs [03:12] time to go grab some dinner, have fun :) [03:12] ok ok [03:12] have a good one [03:12] gnome-tweaks [03:12] https://www.fosslinux.com/4184/how-to-enable-hot-corners-in-ubuntu-18-04.htm [03:13] OerHeks, i'm on this website lol, but can we install gnome-extensions from outside on this new gnome? [03:13] i thought it was blocked (only way by downloading via apt-get or so) [03:14] OerHeks, i'm going to try [03:14] ‘custom hot corners’ in softwarecenter [03:15] and then enable / tweak it with gnome-tweaks [03:15] nice [03:16] worked [03:16] thanks dude [03:17] i love how friendly ubuntu are [03:17] and things just works the way you want to [03:36] On ubuntu18.04 do scripts in /etc/init.d will get run after a reboot? [03:37] yes [03:38] metacontent where in the boot sequence scripts in init.d get triggered? [03:44] mallu0987: I'm not sure, but check out `man systemd` for more information [03:44] ok thanks [04:09] I am trying to run a program thru crontab with - @reboot /bin/sleep 300 && /usr/bin/evebox -v -D /tmp --datastore sqlite --input /var/log/suricata/eve.json &>/dev/null but it didn't work, is the crontab syntax correct? [04:34] let me reboot and check modified crontab [04:58] uhh it didn't work [04:58] hey. is there a way i can make firefox NOT quit after the last window closes? very annoying. then it always opens the last tab i already closed when i open something else.... (ubuntu 19.04) [04:58] created a startup script from KDE and that failed too [04:58] script is working from console [05:01] looks like I need to create a service file and execute the script from there [05:03] running a script from crontab didn't work? [05:03] like... use a text editor, like vi [05:06] thanks, I finally managed to got it working [05:07] it's because I entered the wrong user name [05:07] thanks [05:10] Gallomimia: yeah, it didn't [05:12] howdy [05:13] Is System Profile reliable for benchmark tests when testing different system loads? [05:38] Guys I have just set up Ubuntu 18.04 dual boot alongside Windows10, everything was smooth when i was loging in Ubuntu after the last time I logged in Windows now when i try Ubuntu I am unable to reach the login screen [05:38] This is the error loghttps://ibb.co/Bg8YFwK [05:41] Why do people still recommend dual-booting? It's always safer to use a separate drive. [05:42] whenever I ssh into my Ubuntu server, the console prints "Computer reboot required", can I check why does it need to reboot? [05:42] CountryfiedLinux: Maybe coz they are scared of fucking up with linux and want smething to work with in times of crisis [05:43] *log https://ibb.co/Bg8YFwK [05:43] I've been dual-burned in the past and would never recommend dual-booting to anyone. [05:45] well now it works via systemd [05:50] @aneon how does it change the boot process? Does it make dual boot difficult to run? === Roy_Mustang is now known as A_D [05:51] lately, the dual boot stuff doesn't work [05:51] you need to delete secure boot keys and set it to "other os" from bios [05:51] secure boot is garbage [05:53] @aneon not relly my pc you just set it from hp keys to custom key [05:53] some people think adding "secure" to anything and then breaking the stuff is the right way [05:53] you dont need to deleted anything [05:53] gogeta: what should be done [05:53] ? [05:53] as a precaution, on my tower I removed keys [05:54] @sid21gyou bios under securty should have the abilty to set it to use custom keys [05:54] then it will booot under efi [05:54] relly depends on the pc [05:54] some you have to use legicy bios mode [05:55] anyway I get back to my tasks [05:55] also the usb stick should have been set to gpt efi [05:57] @aneon should not do that as that stores your windows key if you every wanna go back or dual boot [05:57] I'm confused with PC benchmark info. Which part is higher is better, or lower is better? Should I assume if an atom processor has a lower number in a benchmark than my i7 that higher is better, or vice-versa? [05:57] It shows my info and other hardware below mine in each category. [05:58] @CountryfiedLinux depends on the softwhere and yes the i7 is better lol [05:59] gogeta, I know it's better, but I'm trying to figure out how to read these benchmarks as to which benchmark parts are higher is better and which are lower is better. If the weaker processor has the lower number does that mean that higher is better, and if the weaker processor has the higher number does that mean that higher is better? [05:59] we dont take polls here CountryfiedLinux [05:59] That second part should be lower is better [05:59] focus on actual ubuntu support questions please [06:00] lotuspsychje, I'm not asking for polling, just trying to figure out how to read these benchmarks. It doesn't specify each part being higher is better or lower is better. [06:00] CountryfiedLinux: hardware & benchmarking there are other channels for, like ##hardware [06:01] @gogeta i7 is faster. "better" depends upon your criteria. @CountryfiedLinux it depends . some benchmark graphics have lower is better, others have higher is better. can you link us to an concrete example? [06:02] any ideas on how to kill a daemon & zombies, my program doesn't have exit or shutdown option [06:03] Sweedish, https://pastebin.com/faBpwdF6 I don't know which ones represent higher is better and which ones represent lower is better. [06:03] I assume that a lower powered processor with a higher number would indicate that lower is better, and if it has a lower number that would indicate higher is better. [06:03] !offtopic | Sweedish CountryfiedLinux [06:03] Sweedish CountryfiedLinux: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please register with NickServ (see /msg ubottu !register) and use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [06:04] move to the right channels please [06:04] I'm almost done lotuspsychje just give me a minute please. It's not very busy here right now. Not likely to get help elsewhere atm. [06:04] aneon: zombies are already "dead" - they just need to be reaped by their parent process (typically by calling wait/waitpid) - otherwise they'll keep occupying a PID [06:04] okay, I will try /bin/kill -9 $MAINPID [06:04] aneon: what's the program in question? is it a service/daemon? [06:05] CountryfiedLinux: its still not ubuntu related, if you want to continue, pm or meet each other in better channel [06:05] aneon: yeah no, don't do that [06:05] ayekat: dragonfly-mle [06:05] aneon: how do you start it? [06:06] ayekat: /usr/local/dragonfly-mle/bin/dragonfly-mle -r /usr/local/dragonfly-mle -p -v [06:06] aneon: does it background itself? or why do you need to kill it (i.e. does ^C not just quit it?) [06:06] kill it [06:07] doesn't bg [06:07] so where's the problem? [06:07] I cant start it later since it chroots [06:08] I can start it but it doesn't work well [06:09] that sentence about chroot doesn't make much sense to me - and what do you mean with "doesn't work well"? [06:10] when I try to start again it errors saying can not enter chroot, there are zombies [06:10] so I kill zombies first [06:10] I am trying to automate as much as possible [06:10] ... sounds like badly written software to me [06:11] primarily BSD-ish [06:11] not everyone get it working on Linux [06:12] there is a docker build but I am trying to avoid it since it destroys config files [06:14] does anyone checked installation current stable on laptops with eMMc already? [06:14] Hello aneon did what we discussed here but still no login screen for Ubuntu [06:14] uh... if something destroyed config files (or any files for that matter), I probably wouldn't decide to run it directly on my host rather than containerised or virtualised... [06:15] sid21g: do you get a GRUB menu when the system starts? [06:15] sid21g: (or if not, do you know how to make it appear?) [06:15] yes! problem starts after I choose ubuntu [06:16] sid21g: try hitting `e` (I believe? it's marked at the bottom of the screen) to get into the boot arguments editor, and pass systemd.unit=multiuser.target to the kernel command line [06:17] this way at least you get a TTY login, and can try to diagnose things from the command line (instead of staring at a frozen boot screen) [06:17] sid21g: wait, not [06:17] it's systemd.unit=multi-user.target (with a dash) [06:18] ayekat: I want it to not create directories in wrong places, when I change the config and initiate docker build, some strange stuff creates directories in /opt and causes confusion. Anyway, I am not using docker; it doesn't appeal to me [06:20] aneon: I see - but that program looks like quite a complex and fragile beast to me, so I'd consider using docker the lesser evil [06:20] but anyway, zombie processes are annoying, and I don't think you can simply kill them away [06:23] ayekat: this way at least you get a TTY login, and can try to diagnose things from the command line, i wish i could debug [06:23] lets see, I am tryin to figure out machine learning in security. It is shallow but I am trying to see what it does exactly [06:24] sid21g: well, do you get a login screen at least? or does it get stuck again? [06:25] Let me reboot and test [06:25] sid21g: you could look at the journal from the previous boot (i.e. `journalctl -b -1`), and maybe it tells you what happened when it reached the graphical stage [06:26] aneon: well, I have experience in neither one nor the other, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help further than "not waiting for child processes is bad" :-/ [06:27] hopefully I will fix it [06:28] hello , can i upgrade ubuntu 16.04 to ubutu 18 ? [06:29] yes [06:30] ayekat, what is the best way? [06:31] I'm not sufficiently proficient with ubuntu to give a good answer to that [06:32] ayekat, ok thanks [06:32] bryanroderyck: I know that there is the graphical upgrade tool, and there's a command line tool (`do-upgrade` or something), and they both seem to work fine [06:32] I mean... "fine" - modulo all the issues that may arise with an ubuntu upgrade, that is [06:33] bryanroderyck: ah, `do-release-upgrade`, apparently - https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/installing-upgrading.html [06:52] can someone please help me on how to chanche hostname on Ubunti 18.04.2 [06:54] nothing seems to work [06:54] I've tried both using hostnamectl set-hostname and also manually editing /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts, but when I reboot the hostname is back to the previous one [06:55] anonymip: so after editing /etc/hostname and rebooting, the content of /etc/hostname is back to the old one...? [06:55] yes [06:55] that... doesn't sound right [06:55] isn't that strange? [06:57] @ayekat failed to type anything [06:57] also when I do: sudo service hostname restart, I get: Failed to restart hostname.service: Unit hostname.service is masked. [07:00] sid21g: where? do you get a TTY login screen or not? [07:00] I did not [07:01] https://ibb.co/Bg8YFwK [07:01] When a user locks the computer screen, how would that affect rsync running in a terminal window (assuming computer is not set to suspend automatically)? [07:01] this is what i see [07:03] sid21g: that's what you see when you attempt to boot into the graphical session (at least that's the same picture you posted above) [07:03] sooo... someone posted a solution for a bug with 18.04 and Kodi https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kodi/+bug/1836828/comments/9 can anyone elaborate on this? It says I need to download a file and install it... How do I install it? [07:03] ... but I assume you see the same thing this time [07:03] Launchpad bug 1836828 in kodi (Ubuntu) "Kodi crashes when trying to play any video" [Undecided,Confirmed] [07:04] ayekat: I am unable to do anything [07:04] sid21g: yes, if you get stuck at the same place, you can't do anything [07:04] then whats the way forward? [07:04] I'm out of ideas - not being able to boot to the TTY is pretty limiting [07:05] hmm, I found this thread: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2389098&page=2 , and removing ubuntu cloud packages did the trick, now th new host name sticks. [07:06] sid21g: what graphics card do you have? [07:07] AMD Radeon R7 M360 and Intel HD Graphics 520 [07:07] ayekat: [07:08] oh, two... [07:08] Intel HD Graphics is the built in one [07:09] I'm a bit confused that it stays stuck like this, though [07:09] but it does stop at diferent stages [07:09] I'd expect it to either just turn blank (and then it's a graphics issue, and booting to a TTY *should* work), or that systemd starts the timeout counter for whatever service is blocking [07:09] i sent the similar one coz i thought it makes no difference [07:10] but that it just stays blocked in the boot screen like that... then again, I'm really not familiar at all with those dual-graphics-card setups and their quirks (mode changes, etc.) [07:10] let me sent you the latest [07:10] I also think its the timeout counter [07:11] https://ibb.co/1RwBqT0 [07:11] @ayekat this is how it looked this time [07:11] https://ibb.co/1RwBqT0 [07:12] unless someone else has a better idea, I'd probably also try passing `nomodeset` to the kernel command line - but that's just a random suggestion [07:13] but where can I do that? [07:13] I cannot type anything [07:13] ayekat: [07:14] sid21g: it's a kernel command line option - you put it the same place where you put systemd.unit=multi-user.target [07:14] but i was unable to put that too [07:14] AH! [07:14] so "boot to TTY" was actually never really attempted [07:15] I am so sorry if I wasn't clear at any stage! [07:15] sid21g: do you get a GRUB boot menu when you boot? [07:15] yes I do get that and now I know i should open it in recovery mode [07:15] uh... "recovery mode"? [07:15] Ok am quite, you tell. [07:16] grub is visible I have option to open Ubuntu/Windows [07:16] anyway, at the bottom of the menu, there's typically some text that tells you which key allows you to edit the kernel command line (I think it's `e`, or maybe F10, or whatever) [07:17] does it say anything there? if yes, press that, and you should be put into some minimalistic text editor interface [07:17] give me a few I will try that right away [07:17] tell me when you're there [07:22] hi everybody [07:22] does somebody have experience using cubic for live iso customization? [07:41] how to purge docker logs when using journald as log driver ? [07:41] https://ibb.co/qFwgyfR [07:41] https://ibb.co/qFwgyfR [07:43] i don't know what i'm doing wrong, but i'm having terrible performance in my ubuntu desktop [07:43] Output after running the journal comand https://ibb.co/jrymJNM [07:44] abbiya: truncate -s 0 /var/log/docker [07:44] and i seem to have the same problem with all my installations.. on the system i'm working on now loading a particular web page (probably with some js code) renders my computer totally useless.. the mouse cursor starts to freeze up and if i'm not quick to do ctrl + w to close the tab, the computer will spiral into a complete halt.. [07:45] /var/log$ ls docker [07:45] ls: cannot access 'docker': No such file or directory [07:45] it is somewhere /var/lib/ i think [07:45] search it [07:46] Output after running the journal comand https://ibb.co/jrymJNM aneon [07:46] sid21g: I a not familiar with secure boot [07:47] var/lib/docker is a directory full of different things [07:48] when I used to dualboot linux stuff on a single disk I used to install uEFI on MBR and other OS in legacy mode with their grub on / [07:48] abbiya: you need to run find and truncate [07:49] LOGDIR="/var/lib/docker" [07:49] sid21g: GDM failing means you're still booting into graphical mode - did you add the systemd.unit=… option correctly? (see /proc/cmdline) [07:49] sid21g: but anyway, now that you're in the journal, you can scroll down (with G you get to the end) - do you see anything useful there? [07:50] its a 20k line output [07:50] and later make a loop [07:50] sid21g: yeah, but the interesting part is at the end [07:50] I doubt there is anyway to create an output file of it [07:50] or try this = find /var/lib/docker -type f -iname '*.log' -print0 | xargs -0 truncate -s0 [07:51] sid21g: you can `journalctl -b -1 >boot.log`, and then paste that [07:51] @ayekat this is the end [07:51] https://ibb.co/qFwgyfR [07:51] @ayekat but where would that log saved and would it be accessible via windows? [07:52] sid21g: no, but you can just use a paste service from ubuntu [07:52] !paste [07:52] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [07:52] hm... how does this bot work [07:53] sid21g: journalctl -b -1 | curl -F 'f:1=<-' http://ix.io/ [07:53] someone posted a solution for a bug I have with with my 18.04 install and Kodi https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kodi/+bug/1836828/comments/9 it says to download and install libdrm-amdgpu1_2.4.95-1~18.04.1_amd64.deb but in the link provided I don't see that file, how do I get that file and how do I install it? [07:53] Launchpad bug 1836828 in kodi (Ubuntu) "Kodi crashes when trying to play any video" [Undecided,Confirmed] [07:53] wow did not know that @ayekat this is life changing [07:54] sid21g: there's dozens of paste services like those [07:55] ... oh, they left [07:56] * ayekat hopes they're not actually using IRC on the same machine that they're also debugging [07:57] hi [07:58] Hello [07:59] do you use ubuntu? [08:01] yes [08:03] ZaZaGX: what did you break? [08:03] what didn't he break? [08:05] can't find the place where "Try Ubuntu before installing" menu entry is defined on the live CD and cubic does not seem to create the correct auto boot entry for 19.04 [08:06] i broke my dd command [08:06] tuxinator: cubic isnt an official supported package on ubuntu [08:06] of ubuntu mate for the raspberry pi [08:06] it won't load [08:07] !arm | ZaZaGX for PI support [08:07] ZaZaGX for PI support: ARM is a specific (RISC) processor architecture used in a variety of applications such as handhelds and networkdevices. For more information see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM . For ARM specific support, stop by the #ubuntu-arm channel. [08:07] tuxinator: maybe you can contact the cubic maintainer/forum or seek a channel with !alis [08:08] i don't think i'm suppose to do sudo sync afterwards [08:08] ZaZaGX: type /join #ubuntu-arm [08:09] Mead: i was wondering yesterday, are you using official kodi from apt, or did you add a ppa? [08:10] lotuspsychje: any other officialy supported method? or any other idea for a bootable live cd which is easily customizable for a machine which will only be used by guests and should reset on reboot (some kind of kiosk mode) [08:12] tuxinator: we hear good things on cubic, think its a pro package, but we just cant support it here, i hope you understand [08:13] see also https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/secure-ubuntu-kiosk#0 tuxinator [08:28] lotuspsychje: I'm using 17.6 from the offical Kodi ppa [08:28] Mead: we dont support ppa's, this should really be tested from the 17.6 apt version on bionic only [08:29] This is how the output looks like http://ix.io/SP20 [08:29] of the journal command [08:29] it worked fine until the update yesterday... [08:30] Sorry ix.io/10SP [08:30] http://ix.io/10SP [08:35] sid21g: that doesn't look like the right output (kodi on windows...?) [08:36] dont know where did i make the mistake [08:36]
