[00:13] question: I have some icons that keep disapearing off my launcher bar (ubuntu 16), any ideas? [00:16] DOSfan, ypu probably should be in #ubuntu channel [00:16] DOSfan, sorry [00:17] I was thinking I was in another channel [00:21] got disconnected ... a new version of the program came out so I guess that's why my icon dissapeared .. all is well. [00:25] help_wanted: https://github.com/RXT067/Scripts/pull/2 I need to make qemu to load userland+provided kernel in VM and i dunno how [00:25] Current: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/11302521/61836936-d724b780-ae82-11e9-8b51-0b498131c0d5.png [00:37] * uRock is never gonna give, never gonna give, never gonna give you up! [00:52] Hello [00:52] What does everyone use for an application launcher? I used Gnome-Do but it doesn't work with the latest XUbuntu [00:52] Synapse never seems to learn my habits [00:54] I've got dmenu_run bound to a key in my i3 config [00:54] sarnold, does that learn? Gnome-Do has a frecency list so it knows what I usually want to launch [00:55] stavros: no [00:55] Ah, hmm [00:58] I use gnome. It remembers what I've used and lists it in Frequent. [00:59] uRock, I see, thanks [01:10] hello, so i ran rsync in a screen on my computer. i am now sshing intino the computer and would like to check the output of the screen but cant access it [01:12] does screen -ls show it?

Restart,uninstall, reinstall, has not helped, engine still fails to start. Anyone have similar issue or can help ? [01:17] so I'm double-plus glad leftyfb know what to do with the result :) hehe [01:17] guess my googlefu is crap [01:17] hipitihop: anything in the logs? [01:17] thank you, now to figure out why sonarr is saying the files are missing stuff :( [01:18] Hey. Can someone tell me how to disable scroll lock? For some reason it's on and my laptop doesn't have that key [01:18] Larsson: maybe it does, but only by pressing a fn key first? [01:20] sarnold: if it has, it doesn't say in any key... [01:21] dang [01:21] I tried the "setleds -scroll" I found at google, but I get this error: setleds: Error reading current flags setting. Maybe you are not on the console? [01:22] yeah I don't think I'd expect that to work from X or wayland, just a virtual console [01:22] hmm. it's been so long since I've looked.. are those set per-virtual console? I'm pretty sure they are.. [01:23] sarnold, which log do you suggest.

It's Fn + C (Should've done that instead of complicating things) [01:25] thanks [01:25] I probably pressed that instead of ctrl C at some point [01:25] hipitihop: try journalctl -u docker.service [01:26] Larsson: wow, that'd be *really* frustratingly easy to hit [01:32] sarnold, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/CBnt92xRhh/ [01:33] hipitihop: woot: failed to start daemon: error initializing graphdriver: /var/lib/docker contains several valid graphdrivers: overlay2, devicemapper; Please [01:33] hipitihop: I'm going to guess that the rest of that line says something important [01:34] sorry it scrolled off the terminal [01:37] sarnold, "Please cleanup or explicitly choose storage driver (-s )" [01:40] hipitihop: cool :) now to poke around in /var/lib/docker and try to figure out if there's something new there, or if the restriction of "only one" is new [01:41] yup looking at posts like this seem related: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45103803/not-able-to-start-docker-on-ubuntu-16-04-2-lts-error-initializing-graphdriver [01:55] sarnold, stoping docker, adding "storage-driver": "overlay2" to /etc/docker/daemon.json then restarting has got it going.

[08:06] i need to setup wifi [08:06] oh sorry a moment [08:07] so the problem is i access wifi by a starbucks network with a login ok: i managed to click the login link with curl [08:07] and i can use irc or wget pages [08:07] but apt install fails with mismatch size / hash errors iirc [08:07] is there something additional i need to do to setup wifi in bash (my ubuntu currently only seems to enter the terminal tty [08:08] alexande1: is it possible to pastebin the errors? [08:08] this is very hard, as i need to create a curl POST request that does it [08:08] but luckily i might have ix , wait [08:09] wait a moment [08:13] Good UGT morning everyone! [08:13] welcome caroga [08:13] hi lotuspsychje. remember me from last time, you helped me with my touchpad. It's now working due to a kernel update :) [08:14] caroga: great to hear, wich kernel are you on now? did you have a bug on it? [08:15] lotuspsychje: 4.18, and yes I have a bug on it which still is open (also cannot be closed as the bug for switching the touchpad on/off still is active) [08:15] caroga: can i see your bug ID again please? [08:16] so basically mismatch size [08:16] mirror sync in progress? [08:16] unexpected size [08:16] lotuspsychje: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1813783 [08:16] Launchpad bug 1813783 in linux (Ubuntu) "Unable to toggle Touchpad by keyboard shortcut" [Undecided,Confirmed] [08:16] is my error [08:16] when i sudo apt install links [08:16] alexande1: did you sudo apt update first? [08:16] ok i see the error [08:17] basically my network login redirects to its "login" page when i try to apt update [08:17] but it doesnt do that e.g. for https:/google.com [08:17] my wifi network* [08:18] the same happens when i do http://google [08:18] is it possible that apt hits non-https pages [08:18] and i need to somehow fix my wifi settings with that network [08:18] alexande1: are you on that public wifi? [08:18] yep [08:19] i dont have access to another in the moment [08:19] alexande1: could be blocking things from there maybe [08:19] (and even if i had no idea how to lookup the other networks in bash) [08:21] caroga: seems like you tested alot already on that bug :p good job [08:21] thanks. It was kinda fun as well to get stuff to work, but mostly I'm now happy my touchpad is in working order. [08:22] so guys, the problem is all my http(not https) pages are redirected to a login page [08:22] is it possible to somehow use apt get in https-only mode [08:22] or to download package like links [08:22] by other way [08:22] alexande1: easy on the enter button please, you dont need to describe every step you try here [08:23] i am sorry, i usually write many short messages, will try to fix it [08:47] Is there any working manual to access Ubuntu through VNC viever from Windows, Centos works fine for me but an etire Google page of Ubuntu manuals seem to be corrupt, the Ubuntu Console window shows a perfect GUI, but the VNC always boots in a greysreen or a blackscreen, no metter startx config ! [08:49] mrch_: https://askubuntu.com/questions/800302/vncserver-grey-screen-ubuntu-16-04-lts [08:51] hello [08:54] otherwise, my problem is that i think i broke my python3: i might ve changed a file which now breaks imports and e.g. pip3 and many others cant start, so after that i cant seem to start my ui(x server) [08:54] is it possible that this is the reason, or is it not rela [08:57] ZaZaGX, if you have a Ubuntu support question, please just ask it (this room isn't for chit-chat) [09:02] Are questions about using Ubuntu in a VM OK? [09:08] ThriftyDillo, I think yes, just ask and you'll know. [09:11] I just installed VirtualBox on my Mac and Ubuntu 14.10. I might have some questions [09:12] Not sure Ubuntu 14.04 is supported in here, ThriftyDillo [09:13] it's out of the support lifecycle [09:13] 14.10* [09:13] even the lts 14.04 is out of support though, let alone the non lts 14.10 [09:14] Yeah, my I'm using a really old Mac with Snow Leopard, so that's the best version which would run [09:14] *I'm using [09:15] I do realize that the verson of VB I'm running is unsupported, and 14.10 is old [09:15] *version [09:15] anyway, another time :) [09:16] Just wanted to make sure we could talk about running Ubuntu in VM here [09:21] supported versions of ubuntu are supported in virtualbox. however ubuntu 14.10 is not supported anywhere, vb or not [09:21] how did you even find 14.10 iso? [09:22] older versions of Ubuntu are readily available at their site [09:22] but why 14.10? [09:23] and I have successfully installed an older version of VirtualBox in Snow Leopard and 14.10 [09:23] because I run Snow Leopard [09:23] SwedeMike: what exactly worked for you? [09:23] ThriftyDillo: the host OS shouldn't matter [09:23] that shouldn't matter. vbox is vbox right? [09:23] why not, say 14.04, or 15.04? I have many qyestions [09:23] 14.10 is the latest version the Snow Leopard version of VB will support [09:23] just download 18.04 and be done with it. I'm sure it will work. and if it doesn't, cross that bridge when you get there. [09:24] rory: 15.04 isn't any better, though - 14.04 was at least an LTS [09:24] ^^ [09:24] ThriftyDillo: does the latest version of VB not run on Snow Leopard? [09:24] does a later version of macOS not run on your laptop? [09:24] no, needs at least Mavericks [09:25] I have to run Snow Leopard because I run some old PPC code (Rosetta translator) [09:25] So I'm stuck with 14.10 in VM [09:25] I see [09:27] can the old PPC code not be replaced (or itself be run in an emulator)? [09:27] because it keeps you back by a decade (or half a decade, for the ubuntu VM) - is it really worth it? [09:27] but... what happens when you try to install a later version? [09:27] what changed between 14.10 and 15.04 that stopped it working in vb? [09:28] * ayekat assumes the vbox guest additions [09:28] i still think it's worth a try [09:28] you will struggle hard on 14.10 [09:29] ThriftyDillo: you could consider running a different operating system completely and then running your old MacOS version virtualised. I run MacOS in Parallels on my Mac, so I could run an older version of macos in that VM if I needed to. [09:29] it's not going to explode your mac. the worst you lose is your time, and a gigabyte download. [09:30] ThriftyDillo: you could consider running a different operating system completely and then running your old MacOS version virtualised. << interesting idea [09:30] Will bbl, thanks :) === Napsterbater is now known as Guest36397 === Napsterbater_ is now known as Napsterbater [10:21] SwedeMike: thx, sudo vim /home/ubuntu/.vnc/xstartup [10:21] gnome-panel & [10:21] gnome-settings-daemon & [10:21] metacity & [10:21] nautilus & [10:21] , did it but why no official manual is showing this?! === imsurit_ofc is now known as imsurit [11:25] is ubuntu supporting for wireless mouse indicator? [11:26] chieta: Ubuntu supports wireless mouse. It should. [11:28] Hi folks [11:30] how about the battery EoflaOE [11:30] battery wireless mouse? [11:34] chieta: Yes. I have ne, works fine [11:34] one* [11:37] hey guys, i created droplet on the digitalocean and normally i received ip adress on which i'm streaming my radio now. Since i have other website which is listening to that IP - how can i make that ip on digitalocean secure, i mean by declaring ssl certificate? If i want to import Let's Encrypt to i need also apache or something? [11:46] haiiokarin: i think for digital ocean questions, you better contact the digitalocean support [11:47] haiiokarin: whats your kernel version and ubuntu version there? [11:50] ok guys i messed up big im stupid so i pressed alt ctrl f1 while my screen was blank and other combos and my its all messed up like the screen is super zoomed in what do i do [11:50] ciby: did you try a reboot yet? [11:51] yes, it doesnt help [11:51] lotuspsychje: one moment :) [11:51] ciby: wich ubuntu version please? [11:52] 18.04.2 [11:54] ciby: check systemsettings/accesability/ if zoom is enabled or not? [11:54] lotuspsychje: Ubuntu 16.04.6 x64 , 4.4.0-154-generic [11:54] lotuspsychje: i should upgrade ubuntu also right? [11:54] haiiokarin: that looks pretty well up to date [11:54] haiiokarin: are you on server i presume? [11:55] zoom is off [11:56] lotuspsychje: i just installed icecast when i booted up droplet [11:56] lotuspsychje: sorry LibreTime [11:56] lotuspsychje: which depends on icecast [11:56] theres something up with the resolution, when this stuff first happened it was super zoomed in and it didnt have options for resolution at all [11:57] ciby: check systemsettings/devices/screen then, see if schaling is correct or resolution [11:57] haiiokarin: ubuntu desktop or server? [11:57] and i just did something on "advanced options for ubuntu" thing that at least gives different options for resolution, but they are both low [11:57] lotuspsychje: server [11:57] haiiokarin: come join to #ubuntu-server please where the experts are [12:01] what is alt-ctrl-f1 supposed to do though [12:01] Does ubuntu automatically renice processes now????????? [12:01] ciby: tty [12:01] longus_catus: elaborate please, whats happening? [12:01] Exactly what I said. Processes getting reniced automatically [12:02] Probabyl this package called 'and' [12:03] pretty afraid i totally ruined this thing, looks like i need to start over [12:03] ciby: check also: sudo lshw -C video to see if driver is still loaded [12:04] okay [12:05] just did that but im not sure what sense im supposed to make of it [12:05] ciby: at bottom driver=.... [12:08] im not seeing it say "driver" anywhere but it says "display UNCLAIMED" which sounds important to this [12:09] ciby: ok, thats what wrong the, your driver isnt loaded, do you have an nvidia card? [12:09] yes [12:09] ciby: ok, check ubuntu-drivers list, please [12:09] hello [12:09] I had been using Ubuntu with Gnome [12:09] Then I installed KDE [12:10] and now I don't have Xs xD [12:10] and now I don't have Xs* [12:10] i check it online? [12:10] ciby: no, from a terminal please: ubuntu-drivers list [12:11] ss942: you installed kubuntu-desktop ontop of ubuntu-desktop with gnome 18.04? [12:11] lotuspsychje: I wish, but it's my secoundary machine, and it was Ubuntu 16.04 [12:12] no idea if still supported [12:12] ss942: yes 16.04 is still supported, but you might give the channel more details of what you been doing, so volunteers can help you better [12:13] The hugest problem is that I don't have access to any other computer for next 5 days, and I have to end my job from it in 3 days... [12:13] lotuspsychje: ok, give me a moment [12:13] i entered "ubuntu-drivers list" in the terminal and got one result... what do i do with it [12:13] ciby: that command should give you driver versions, wich do you see please? [12:14] nvidia-driver-390 [12:15] ciby: ok good, first see if your system is up to date please: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [12:17] doesnt look like it is, and i dont think that updated it [12:17] ciby: getting errors?

[12:24] i dont know anything about virtualbox [12:24] or a ppa [12:24] ciby: your sources showing you have virtualbox, and thats where your issues came [12:24] ciby: are you the owner of your system? [12:24] yes [12:25] ciby: you cant recall installing virtualbox? [12:25] yes [12:25] ciby: remove it please and then try to update system again [12:25] how do i do that [12:26] did this happened when i did the alt-ctrl-f1 thing [12:27] ciby: before we focus on your tty thing, lets try to straighten your system a bit first [12:27] okay [12:27] !ppapurge | ciby [12:27] ciby: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [12:27] ciby: you can check your sources in software&sources icon aswell [12:28] whats repository-name and subdirectory for [12:29] ciby: thats where it fits the ppa name and subdirectory you added [12:29] ciby: that could have happened manual, or from installing it from the website [12:32] oh just noticed it says i need to install something called ppa-purge [12:32] ciby: yes, see the factoid i suggested above [12:32] how do i do that though.. [12:33] ciby: sudo apt install ppa-purge [12:34] So, I've got a question. I've added Flickr under Online Accounts, and installed Photos. But I don't see my flickr albums showing up ? [12:34] Am I missing something or am I assuming the wrong outcome ? [12:35] caroga: did it add a flickr icon to quick launch it? [12:35] To the ubuntu menu or the photos application ? [12:35] both: nope [12:36] so now do i just enter "sudo ppa-purge" or do i need to fill in the other stuff [12:37] ciby: look at the factoid i provided how to use ppa-purge, you need to add the exact ppa name/and directory [12:37] ciby: volunteers cant help you with that part though, as you should recall wich ppa you added [12:38] welp... i dont know what they are [12:38] might be stuck here [12:40] !sources | ciby [12:40] ciby: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories. === pavlushka_ is now known as pavlushka [12:43] um i think i just found something? i searched "virtual" in my files and i found a file called "virtual box" that was made a couple hours ago [12:44] ciby: try to recall wich steps you took, to add virtualbox to your system, maybe check browser history? [12:44] i dont keep browser history [12:45] ciby: after you removed the ppa, you have to update system again, then install that 390 nvidia driver [12:47] it was actually from june 25th so nevermind.. not sure what im doing with it though [12:48] but last thing that happened, i was trying to find out how to get ubuntu out of suspend because the screen stays blank when i do [12:49] ciby: i presume your screen problems are related to nvidia driver not loaded [12:50] maybe, hope i can fix this first though.. [12:50] theres this other filed called "virtual" with stuff from today [12:51] ciby: pastebin your sources.list please? [12:51] let me see what i can do [12:52] ciby: /etc/apt/sources.list or sources.list.d [12:53] oh um [12:54] in sources.list.d theres a file thats called virtualbox.list [12:55] ciby: pastebin please [12:56] the contents of virtualbox.list? [12:56] ciby: sources.list.d [12:57] not sure what you mean [12:59] well in sources.list, in "other software", theres a marked checkbox for virtualbox stuff [13:00] ciby: oh i see, it opened software&sources i presume? try to remove the virtualbox from list [13:01] Hello all! I'm using ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and I've got an encrypted $HOME. I've got a script in $HOME that needs to be run at boot. When I place it in /etc/rc.local, I get /home/$USER/script: Not found. Any ideas on how to get it to work? [13:02] I get that Not found error at boot time. [13:02] skyroveRR: can you place it outside of $HOME? [13:02] EriC^: I could, but I'd like to keep it clean. [13:02] I mean I've got no problems putting it in /root, but I don't understand why that isn't working. [13:02] skyroveRR: My clean solution is an /etc/cron-scripts dir on all my machines. [13:03] might have to brb [13:03] skyroveRR: cause your home dir is encrypted, it's only decrypted when you login [13:03] EriC^: I'm using SSH, the machine is running headless. [13:03] skyroveRR: So? [13:03] skyroveRR: ^ [13:04] Well.... so it'll decrpyt only on successful SSH login? I mean, SSH communicates with ecryptfs too? [13:04] * decrypt [13:04] skyroveRR: are you using password authentication? [13:04] Yes. [13:05] skyroveRR: when you login, the password you put is actually used to decrypt your passphrase wrapped file, which then is used to decrypt your dir [13:05] vlt: how are you doing the cron part? [13:06] i dont think he meant that works with an encrypted home [13:06] skyroveRR: Depends on *what* should work. [13:06] How to restart nautilus? [13:07] you'd have to write something that decrypts the home dir before running /etc/rc.local, which is then kind of defeating the point of encryption somewhat [13:07] The script inside $HOME should work at every reboot, that's what I'm after :) [13:07] skyroveRR: Then put it somewhere readable. [13:07] zetheroo, killall nautilus [13:07] then nautilus [13:07] uRock: ok [13:07] skyroveRR: And have an "@reboot" line in cron. [13:08] vlt: ok, will do. [13:09] i just unchecked it [13:09] so... now what [13:09] uRock: when trying to 'killall' I get: nautilus: no process found [13:09] ciby: now try: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [13:10] zetheroo, add sudo [13:11] uRock: I did. strange thing though ... I saw it in System Monitor and then just as I posted the previous sentence it disappeared from the System Monitor ... who knows ;P [13:11] vlt: I suppose putting it in /root and modifying /etc/rc.local should do the trick equally well? [13:11] lol, so it just took a minute to kill itself, [13:12] guess so [13:12] The real issue is that I am plagued by this message in Nautilus when trying to browse a samba network share: Failed to retrieve share list from server: Connection timed out [13:13] skyroveRR: Of course. I just told you about my "clean" solution ;) [13:13] looks like it upgraded [13:13] I have tried several things from forum threads but honestly at this point don't want to mess up my system trying stuff out [13:14] vlt: thanks man. I'll consider your suggestion for other things. [13:14] vlt: the other way to get it to work would be to remove ecryptfs entirely, right? [13:15] i cant look back on the chat to see if ive been told what to do next [13:15] ciby: sudo apt install nvidia-driver-390, then reboot [13:15] nvidia driver thing? [13:15] skyroveRR: Sounds to me like two almost entirely different problems. [13:15] ah yes [13:15] ill do that [13:17] skyroveRR: You can only run things you can read. How to achieve this is up to you. [13:18] done, so now... i restart my computer [13:19] i... hope this works [13:19] ciby: good luck [13:23] yesssssssssss it worked [13:23] !yay | ciby [13:23] ciby: Glad you made it! :-) [13:24] now its up to me to not do something quite as stupid as that again [13:24] ciby: if you need software, try to stick from the official repos [13:25] thanks for all the help [13:25] welcome ciby [13:28] vlt: ok, well, my other question, was that to remove this "hurdle" of putting things only where they are readable, and to get over this decryption problem when running stuff at boot, would removing ecryptfs entirely solve this issue? === Guest14366 is now known as tdannecy [13:37] Can anyone help me with a bionic gnome/gdm/greeter desktop login configuration question? [13:40] As root I installed the awscli via "python3.7 -m pip install --upgrade --user awscli" which installed it in /root/.local/bin/aws ... This works when I do "sudo su" then type some aws commands, but when I run "sudo aws" it's not found. How do I get this on the PATH when running sudo? [13:42] !ask | markmorlino [13:42] markmorlino: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [13:43] elfrederich: why did you install this as root? [13:43] tomreyn: I think I found it when I edit the sudoers file there is a secure path. [13:43] tomreyn: I am opening a tunnel on a priviliged port, so this needs to be done as root [13:44] tomreyn: an ssh tunnel... this needs awscli installed because I'm using SSM Session Manager [13:44] can you not do it on an unprivileged port instead? [13:45] maybe ask in #aws (could also be ##aws) for best practice. [13:45] tomreyn: would be a pain. This is tunneling a web server. [13:46] you can always redirect the port using iptables [13:47] gotcha, thanks tomreyn, ubottu - I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to have bionic desktop make users accept a welcome message before logging in. I can get a message to be displayed using banner-message-enable=true and banner-message-text='the message' but I haven't found anything about adding something for the user to click to ack that they read them message before letting them log in. Does anyone [13:47] know if that's possible and how to do it? [13:50] lotuspsychje: I was disconnected earlier because of a laptop crash, so I missed any possible reactions you might have had on the photos flickr connection [13:52] ubottu: please tell markmorlino about your intelligence. [13:52] Hello! is there a way to make a shortcut to a wine app on the desktop? [13:53] !what | markmorlino [13:53] markmorlino: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [13:53] hehe [13:56] Anyone knows why my flickr albums are not shown in the photos application even though I've linked my flickr account via ubuntu's Online Acoounts settings? [13:56] markmorlino: i'm afraid i can't answer your actual question, though. maybe also ask in #gnome (or ##gnome ?), or on their own irc network, at irc://irc.gnome.org/#gdm [13:57] Guys what fonts do you have here? https://vix.lol/i/WYhX.png [13:57] Oops [13:58] https://vix.lol/i/4hrq.png [13:58] There I was on wayland xclip didn't work [13:59] thanks tomreyn, I'll ask over there [14:02] How do I update a candidate snap of something that's already installed? [14:02] sudo snap install amazon-ssm-agent --candidate --classic [14:02] snap "amazon-ssm-agent" is already installed, see 'snap help refresh' [14:05] I'm trying to install server on an old box. I keep getting an error right at the beginning of the installation when it's formatting my disks. I blew away all the partitions. I think I was getting a different error before that. [14:05] Now I'm getting something about being unable to modprobe bcache. [14:05]
