OrcD3vilamazing this issue still exist00:00
OrcD3vilcan't get grub to come up assuming timing is set to 00 due to not dual booting, so the grub menu isn't loading00:01
FaTaL_GBashing-om: the brcm is a broadcom driver, its also one that has "poor" or no support in linux, but there are a number of people who got it to work using a similar driver. It required kernel 4.4+ to work00:01
OrcD3vilcan only boot into livecd00:01
FaTaL_GSo for 16.04, it worked. I dont know why it wont work all of a sudden in 18.04, and there are a few articles about it for 19.04 saying "its supported properly" in the kernel now00:02
FaTaL_Gbut I see many articles stating it works on 18.04..... thus.. it should?00:02
FaTaL_GI'll go check out your links. thnks00:03
FaTaL_Gcorrect jeremy31 it does not.... not until 19.0400:03
FaTaL_GThis guy figured it out, so did others:  https://blog.cooperteam.net/post/2017-11-10-asus-ac88-wifi-on-linux/00:04
FaTaL_GI used it, on 16.04 successfully for 2 years00:04
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Well, from the liveDVD - we can look at the installed grub file and edit it if needed. A simple mount will do here :)00:05
OrcD3vilBashing-om, i'm in the livedvd just rebooted00:06
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: From the liveDVD - let's maje sure of the target . what shows ' sudo fdisk -lu - ? where we want to indentify the partition that contains grub.00:08
Bashing-ommake*00:08
OrcD3villooks like theyt ook out xchat in livedvd what a pain00:10
FaTaL_Ghmmm Bashing-om: so I should rebuid the kernel? ugh... is there any way I can confirm this is accurate? that link talks about 4.15, but I have been running 4.15 for ages00:10
OrcD3vil/dev/sda1 EFI00:10
FaTaL_Gand it worked for me with my wifi00:10
OrcD3vil/dev/sda2 Linux filesystm00:10
FaTaL_G(or wiki) hehehe00:10
OrcD3vil/dev/sdb1 linux file system00:10
OrcD3vilssd sda boot 2 partitions EFI and /00:12
OrcD3vilsdb is 3tb /home00:12
FaTaL_GSpecial Case #2 - For the ASUS PCE-AC88 AC310000:16
FaTaL_Gthat is the card00:16
FaTaL_Gtnx, ill try it00:16
FaTaL_Gmaybe upgrading to 18.04 rebuilt a new kernel and the old drivers were removed00:17
OrcD3vilBashing-om, ?00:18
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Show us, please in a pastebin ' sudo fdisk -lu | nc termbin.com 9999 '. The result is a URL back in terminal, pass that link back here .00:20
OrcD3villived=cd doesn't have irc client00:20
Bashing-omFaTaL_G: "  apt show bcmwl-kernel-source00:21
Bashing-om" is your devise listed in the description ?00:21
OrcD3vilBashing-om what was the command again?00:24
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: So ? How are you on irc at this time ? the result is only simple, like " https://termbin.com/fa4k " .00:25
FaTaL_GVersion: 6.30.223.271+bdcom-0ubuntu400:25
OrcD3vilgoogle search #ubuntu live cd and got a web client00:26
OrcD3vilwas on my surface tab00:26
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: sudo fdisk -lu | nc termbin.com 9999 '.00:26
FaTaL_GBashing-om: what am I looking for in that00:26
Bashing-omFaTaL_G: If your device is lisyed .. then a purge and reinstall of bcmwl-kernel-source might do the trick :)00:27
Bashing-omlisted*00:27
OrcD3vilhttps://termbin.com/e7ge00:27
coffeecowWhat's the best/easiest way to setup calendar synchronization from my phone to Calendar (included with Ubuntu) without using Google or any of those privacy-invading services? Can I setup some sync service on my Ubuntu server at home? I hear nextcloud is OK but it is a huge pain in the ass TBQH.00:28
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Looks good :) .. and which drive are we attempting booting ?00:28
OrcD3vilsda00:29
OrcD3vilsda has EFI and /00:29
OrcD3vilsdb has /home00:29
FaTaL_GBashing-om: it is not listed00:30
FaTaL_Gmy device is special case #200:30
FaTaL_GI have to use a "hack" by extracting a binary stream from a 4366b linux driver, which is not full featured00:31
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Then we can do from the liveDVD ' sudo mkdir /mnt/looksee ; sudo mount /dev/sda2 mnt/looksee ; cat /mnt/looksee/etc/default/grub ' .00:31
FaTaL_Ghttps://askubuntu.com/questions/1072676/asus-pce-ac88-on-ubuntu-18-0400:31
FaTaL_Gone person says it works full featured on 19.0400:32
FaTaL_Gwhich is a major driver for me wanting to go to 19.0400:32
FaTaL_Gbut I dont want to lose features if 19.04 is unstable00:32
OrcD3vilBashing-om https://termbin.com/zutb00:33
OrcD3vilok so nomodeset is already enabled but still getting black screen..00:34
FaTaL_Ginteresting Bashing-om & jeremy31: git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git00:35
FaTaL_Gfind linux-firmware/ -name brcmfmac4366c-pcie.bin00:35
Bashing-omFaTaL_G: jeremy31: is much better aware of WIFI than I . I take a back seat to him :D00:35
FaTaL_Gthat was posted by a commentor... maybe I canbuild REAL support for it00:35
OrcD3vilBashing-om during install i did select to install propriatary drivers also.  Not sure why this 970 has a issue with 1/2 the distros and half it doesn't00:37
OrcD3vilBashing-om what you think?00:42
FaTaL_Gany thoughts on that driver jeremy31? should I be able to use it on 18.04?00:42
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: I see no fault with how 'nomodeset' is set ... should workie .. booting the install - at that black screen, what results 'ctl+alt+F2" ? See if we can get to a terminal interface there.00:43
OrcD3vilno term shows pressed Ctl alt F2 - F600:43
OrcD3vilnothing but blank black screen00:43
sarnoldsome laptops don't have working f2 until you hit eg the Fn key00:44
FaTaL_Gjeremy31: I mean, unless I'm missing something, that is official upstream git?00:44
OrcD3vilThis is Desktop00:44
shakermakerThis is sparta00:45
OrcD3vilBashing-om booting into live CD literally took 5 minutes for some reason.  I can reboot give it 5 then try FN and CTL ALT F200:45
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: No, what we need now is a terminal on the installed system .. think'n about how we can avoid a full change root routine to gain access :(00:47
OrcD3vilBashing-om its amazing this issue is still around, I used to work with linux back 20 yrs ago when Slackware was like ver 4 lol and this was a issue00:48
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: A thought - in the liveDVD boot mneu is "boot from first hard drive" .. try that and see what happens ?00:49
OrcD3vilBashing-om some distro's are fine, some have this some dont its really weird00:49
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Nvidia support has really improved - and getting better all the time.00:50
OrcD3vilBashing-om there is no option for that just "Try Live DVD" then try safe, then install / install safe / OEM install00:50
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Boot the liveDVD and as soon as bios clears spam the escape key -> language screen, escape key to accept the defaults -> boot menu :)00:52
OrcD3vilBashing-om ok and once in boot menu?00:53
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Looking here -- I do expext that "boot from 1st hard drive" is an option there"00:54
OrcD3vilk lets see how it goes00:55
OrcD3vilBashing-om, booted to livecd, hit esc and now at grub prompt00:58
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: I can reboot into a 18.04 ubuntu liveDVD and confirm :(00:59
OrcD3vilwhen I boot it gives me optins to try, try safe mode, install, install safe mode, oem manufactuer, check disc for defects or press E to edit command01:00
OrcD3vilif I don't select any and hit Esc I get Grub term01:00
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Rebooting give me lots of time as this ole system is slow ..maybe a shift key vice the escape key ? getting to a grub prompt is unsettling :(01:01
OrcD3vilif i select install, not the safe mode screen goes into power save01:01
craigbass76I brought this laptop from 14.04 to 16.04 yesterday, then got it up to 18.04 today. Everything seems fine, but DNS. It's getting the same server IP as other stuff in my house, so I'm not sure what gives. If I echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" >> /etc/resolv.conf, it works, but that's not a real fix...01:02
craigbass76Oops, I tried something that didn't work. Did anyone answer me while I was gone?01:18
sarnoldcraigbass76: you didn't miss anything whil you were away01:23
OrcD3vilbashing got lost on that reboot lol01:24
craigbass76sarnold, thanks.01:24
craigbass76The plot thickens! If I run dhclient wlan0, I'm golden (after a reboot and having /etc/resolv.conf going back to normal) but if I reboot again, pffft.01:26
OrcD3vilBashing-om, wb01:30
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: I can confirm that "boot from first hard disk" is an option on the desktop installer. However, my attempt to use that option failed - maybe because I do not have a standard grub ?01:30
OrcD3vilBashing-om, how do you get that option?01:31
sarnoldI wonder: are one of you using uefi and the other legacy?01:31
OrcD3vilubuntu-19.04-desktop-amd64 is the iso i'm using01:32
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: At the installer splash screen I press a shift key -> language screen, escape to accept the default -> boot options screen :)01:32
OrcD3vilso you select install safe mode then shift?01:33
Bashing-omsarnold: OrcD3vil I am legacy as my install method - OrcD3vil is indeed EFI .01:33
OrcD3vilbashing going tto reboot sleect install safe modeandtab shift key as it loads?01:34
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: No, the ubuntu splash screen is just after the bios screen clears .01:34
OrcD3vilonce it asks what language hit esc?01:34
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: yup - . If you get the language screen you are on the right path :D01:35
FaTaL_GBashing-om: jeremy31 seems to have gone silent. So I did the modprobe load, and the syslog still shows a -2 error01:40
FaTaL_Gits the same file I loaded on 16.04 4.4 and 4.1501:40
FaTaL_Gnow on 18.04 its complains and doesnt load completely or something?01:40
Bashing-omgavinguo: Broadcom is not something I have experience with; I would really prefer others here pick up my slack.01:41
Bashing-omFaTaL_G: sorry gavinguo  - see ^^ .. I do not know off the top of my head.01:42
OrcD3vilBashing-om, something in grub is borked01:43
OrcD3vilBashing-om, went into bios forgot to plug in USB drive so I booted to UEFI SSD BAM loads01:44
FaTaL_Gyea but I really do not think this is a broadcom thing01:44
FaTaL_Gthese are all the errors I had in the past01:44
FaTaL_Git still worked, just not with full functionality01:44
OrcD3vilBashing-om, i'm now booted into system afraid to restart it lol01:45
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Well ! progress :) .. what whows ( pastebin) ' sudo lshw -C display ' ?01:47

OrcD3vilcrap it wants to restart01:50
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: We can delay the reboot :) .. ' sudo lshw -C display ' ?01:51
OrcD3vilwell if it doesn't boot i'll have to go in bios and point to the hard drive almost like the MBR never got wrote maybe01:51
=== turbotaco is now known as DetectiveTaco
OrcD3vilok its booting into the OS now weird01:51
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: I would like to see the graphic's hardware and if a driver is loaded before attempting a re-boot :)01:52
OrcD3vilBashing-om, i hit the reboot because i couldn't install a irc client to give you the output01:53
OrcD3vilBashing-om, give me sec have to register 2nd nick and join channel the reboot was sucessful and just got irc client installed01:53
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Ho-kay .. we can work through this - long as we have a terminal there is high hopes :P01:53
orcd3vil-deskBashing-om, ok what is the command you would like01:55

orcd3vil-deskBashing-om, thats what all the websites are saying is you ahve to add and different ppa02:10
sarnoldman the heck are users supposed to keep track of all this nvidia mess http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/yTRSqjQgPf/02:11
Bashing-omorcd3vil-desk: Lemme verify that - as I did expext the disco repo to now have the 430 version driver .. back in a tick.02:12
Bashing-omsarnold: Uh Huh - I agree --- nvidia drivers have become a mess to know what is :(02:14
orcd3vil-deskBashing-om, brb going to reboot.  sarnold it is a mess thats why I was saying earlier I used to play on Linux pretty well back 20 years ago and nvidia still had this nomodeset issues02:14
FaTaL_GAnother issue I want to solve, is redis-server is not working. It is used (among other things) for ntopng.... I was trying to fix it yesterday, and I deleted the dump.rdp02:14
Bashing-omFaTaL_G: I can help with the nvidia driver :) .. but redis-server is not in my range.02:15
FaTaL_Gguess that was stupid. I keep getting a sh: 0: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory error, and no idea what is throwing it02:15
FaTaL_Glol02:15
FaTaL_Gdid I mention a nvidia issue?02:16
sarnoldFaTaL_G: probably just apt purge redis-whatever and apt install redis-whastever and reconfigure it02:16
FaTaL_Gno worries, if I dont ask, I wont get help02:16
Bashing-omFaTaL_G: Ouch on me --- wrong thought process here :(02:16
FaTaL_GI didnt try reconfigure02:16
FaTaL_GI did purge tho02:16
FaTaL_GI did purge ans reinstall02:17
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: wb :)02:17
FaTaL_G.... sarnold... how do I reconfigure?02:17
orcd3vil-deskBashing-om, thnx let me try that command one more time see if output is better02:17
orcd3vil-deskhttps://termbin.com/kp0g02:18
sarnoldFaTaL_G: edit /etc/redis/redis.conf and /etc/default/redis-server -- I'm not sure if the /etc/default/redis-server file is still useful or not, but it appears to be packaged02:18
Bashing-omorcd3vil-desk: Removed 'nomodeset' and then ran ' sudo update-grub ' ?02:18
orcd3vil-desknot yet umm lets see how i do lol02:18
orcd3vil-desksudo /etc/default/grub right?02:18
orcd3vil-deskthen remove nomodeset after quiet splash02:19
FaTaL_Gsarnold: indeed the file is there, but I dont know what is throwing the error... or how to create a new dump.rdp02:19
FaTaL_Gthe file as in redis.conf (is there)02:19
FaTaL_Gsh: 0: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory  <----- doesnt really tell me anything02:20
FaTaL_Gits trying to find 0 lol02:20
orcd3vil-deskBashing-om, looks like i did it02:20
sarnoldFaTaL_G: what is giving that message?02:21
Bashing-omorcd3vil-desk: That last shows still with 418 files .. did you not 'autoremove' ? .. grub : ' sudo -H gedit /etc/default/grub ' // that 'H' IS important !02:21
FaTaL_Gsarnold: anytime the system tries to start redis-server02:23
orcd3vil-deskBashing-om, this is what I did https://askubuntu.com/questions/1147165/after-installing-nvidia-driver-430-ubuntu-19-04-does-not-boot-and-stuck-on-boot02:23
sarnoldFaTaL_G: can you pastebin logs?02:23
orcd3vil-deskapt-get purge nvidia*02:23
orcd3vil-deskapt-get autoremove02:23
orcd3vil-deskapt-get install nvidia-driver-43002:23
orcd3vil-deskBashing-om, did I do something wrong with those commands?02:25
FaTaL_Gah its working this time02:26
FaTaL_Gbut I had to disable ::1 in the config02:27
sarnoldaha :D02:27
FaTaL_Git just didnt work on reinstall because it puts ::1 in there, and I have ipv6 explicitly disabled02:27
eelstreborError: The backup GPT table is corrupt, but the primary appears OK - https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/WHh3MHQN3B/02:27
Bashing-omorcd3vil-desk: Nope -- I guess then that the 418 files are good - Lots has changed in nvidia recently that go over my head :( . Let's remove the 'nomodeset' and ' sudo update-grub ' reboot and see then what we have :P02:28
Bashing-omorcd3vil-desk: But I am concerned that there "might" ne a xorg.conf file at play here too.02:29
Bashing-omne/be*02:29
orcd3vil-deskBashing-om, k going to reboot brb02:30
FaTaL_Gnext question for my meddling....02:34
FaTaL_GWhat should I look at to discover the cause of this, when I try to install or start this service:   cento@* is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it.02:34
sarnoldFaTaL_G: try systemctl status cento or systemctl status cento@02:36
FaTaL_Glooks to be running02:36
FaTaL_Gbut I get that error?02:37
FaTaL_Gdo I just delete "cento@.service"02:37
eelstrebori guess i'll backup my drive and try to fix the gpt error without corrupting the entire drive02:38
orcd3vil-deskWell no more stalling to boot seems to have fixed it, but 418 and 430 drivers are still showing02:38
sarnoldFaTaL_G: I don't think I'd delete anything until I nuderstood what's going on and why..02:38
FaTaL_Glol, good point02:38
Bashing-omOrcD3vil: Abd is X happy " what now shows ' sudo lshw -C display ' ?02:39
FaTaL_Gbut my deleting things yesterday is waht got me into this mess02:39
FaTaL_Gmy ntopng install didnt work after upgrading to 18.0402:39
FaTaL_GI now know why02:39
FaTaL_Git was alllllllll because of the friggin ::102:39
sarnoldFaTaL_G: does systemctl list-unit-files  look sane?02:39
FaTaL_GI didnt even know I had that option02:41
FaTaL_Gmostly sane02:41
FaTaL_Gapache2.service                            enabled02:41
FaTaL_Gapache2@.service                           disabled02:41
FaTaL_Gthings like that dont02:41

orcd3vilBashing-om, the graphics look a whole lot worse after this reboot btw03:50
Bashing-omorcd3vil: Can not say .. but I have yet to know of a system that secure boot can not be disabled :( - and with secure boot enabled the 3rd party driver can not install !03:51
FaTaL_Gthanks for those sarnold, thats working again03:54
orcd3vilBashing-om, there we go.. I had to research it made me delete my Keys, then it disabled secure boot03:58
orcd3vil1600x900 resolution now I think the drivers are loaded03:58
orcd3vilBashing-om, thnx for the help ;)04:00
Bashing-omorcd3vil: Ho-kay ! - try this again ; ' sudo apt remove --purge nvidia* ; sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' :)04:00

orcd3vilBashing-om, thnx :) going to save next project for tomorrow of mapping my NAS Box/Kodi04:04
Bashing-omorcd3vil: Now you may re-enable secure boot :P04:04

FaTaL_GI have another issue... it has got to be something with the 18.04 upgrade, because this machine has been my router for almost 2 years now, and while I have had issues, this one is strange.... it randomly stops talking to the net04:12
FaTaL_Gcant ping an IP or anyhting04:12
FaTaL_Gsyslogd doesn't tell me squat04:12
FaTaL_GIt seems to last for 8 hours, 10 hours, etc... and bam, just stops talking. If I IFDOWN and then IFUP the internet facing adapter, it works again04:13
lakitu<lakitu> hey you guys - i've got this fruitastic little problem where when i don't have a dinky little SD card in my usb slot, my linux (Kubuntu 18) won't boot. to be fair, it's set to automount in the fstab. any way i can not be forced to keep this little SD card / working? <lakitu> i just spent 45 min thinking my harddrive had a corrupt journal or whatever the flip. turns out i just had removed the sd card at one point <lakitu> plugged it back in04:40
lakitu& i could get back into my OS (couldn't without)04:40
lakituit says "a start job is running" - shows a limit of 1:30 (1m 30s) for it to run, & when it doesn't complete by then, it throws me into emergency mode04:40
Bashing-omlakitu: The "nofail" switch ? see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fstab .04:54
lakituBashing-om: thanks.05:06
Bashing-omlakitu: Happy2help :D05:06
FaTaL_Gwell jeremy31, if ypu have a chance,I'd like to get this broadcom adapter working again as an AP. It worked on 16.04. So I hope u agree it should work on the 18.0405:10
rigel_how do i get my hp deskjet printer to listen to my ubuntu 18.04 for a print job?05:27
immuwhat is the ubuntu chit chat channel?05:27
rigel_i know this is a ubuntu issue, because both android on samsung galaxy s10 and a windows 10 on dell work with it05:28
rigel_the job is reported to be in the queue, but it doesn't actually send the printer any data, afaict05:28
m3ssiayou have all the hp printer libs?05:29
rigel_i do have hplip installed05:30
rigel_it just informed me rn that the print job is complete, but the printer doesn't have appeared to lift a single finger05:30
Bashing-omimmu: ##ubuntu-offtopic ,05:31
rigel_i can manually do it through hp-print, and even through lp/lpr, to zero degree of success05:32
immuBashing-om, thanks05:33
rigel_currently i'm trying to do it through the print dialog on firefox with a pdf document open on pdf.js, and the computer keeps giving me false positives of success05:33
m3ssiayou have cups installed?05:33
rigel_which package?05:33
m3ssiaidk for ubuntu... but cups and libcups and lib32-libxups05:34

rajrajraji am banned from ##linux, can someone please check what "lftp sftp://user:password@2001@10.131.78.17 -e cd /som/return_orders/images/; mput *; bye;" command would do05:34
rigel_doing a `apt --installed list '*cups*'`; i got the installed ones: cups,libcups2,libcupsimage2 and a lot of others i can't paste here05:35
rigel_do you want it as a pastebin?05:35
m3ssiamaybe take a look at your cups server and see if everything looks good there driver and ip of the printer05:37
rigel_i have these packages: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KK5FCGgGxG/05:37
rigel_m3ssia: it's a usb printer05:37
m3ssiamaybe it's old and unsupported?05:37
m3ssiaId check the cups server05:38
rigel_that my machine is running? i'm not familiar with that one, though05:38
m3ssiahttps://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/cups.html05:39
m3ssiaso should be 127.0.0.1:63105:40
rigel_there's three big headers: Cups for {users,administrators,developers}05:41

m3ssiait say connection usb?05:43
m3ssiadriver should be fine05:43
rigel_where should it say connection usb?05:43
m3ssiafor instance mine says05:43
OerHeksrajrajraj, that request would be a sort of ddos / hacking, anyway unwanted as support question, that might also be the reason why you are banned in ##linux05:43

OerHeks!coc > rajrajraj05:44
ubotturajrajraj, please see my private message05:44
m3ssiawhen you lsusb do you see the printer?05:44
rigel_i have a table with headers: [Queue Name, Description, Location, Make and Model, Status]; None of which mention anything about a connection in the table cells05:44

m3ssiaare there jobs in that list?05:46
rigel_about 12 of them05:47
rigel_some of them say canceled, aborted, held since...05:48
rigel_the primary error message catching my eye says "Unable to send raster data to the driver" and "Filter failed"05:48

rigel_cups-filters is installed05:53
m3ssiaUnless the printer is unsupported by hplip...idk you got me I guess05:53
rigel_yes, i found my printer twice. (which could be two different printers with the added name of ink advantage)05:53
rigel_under hplip 3.15.605:54
rigel_- HP DeskJet 2130 All-in-One Printer series05:54
rigel_under hplip 3.15.705:54
m3ssiamaybe try it over the network?05:54
rigel_- HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 2130 All-in_One Printer05:54
rigel_my printer doesn't support the network05:54
m3ssiai wonder if it is trying to send it in postscript or something05:56
immuthese all in one printers suck without a network option05:56
m3ssiaunable to send raster data...05:56
rigel_i actually tried to get the raster output through some filter or other, and tried to send that through lp. couldn't figure out the argv05:56
m3ssiaAre you printing text?05:57
rigel_what do you mean?05:57
rigel_a txt file?05:57
m3ssialike text or an image?05:57
rigel_i'm atm trying to print a pdf which is a scan, so an image, but the same thing happens on any document i try to print05:58
rigel_should i do cli hp-print with a .txt file or smth, to check things out?05:59
m3ssiawhy not05:59
rigel_now i see a new job on http://localhost:631/jobs/?which_jobs=all whose state is held since [a minute ago]06:02
rigel_and the printer just lays there like a bear in hibernation06:03
rigel_i turned on hp-print's debug output, to see that it only executes `lpr -P DeskJet_2130 -o page-set=all 10_lines.txt`, which i did, with an exit code of 0, and another job on the cups queue that printer doesn't feel obligated to respond to06:07
jonssonsI got an Ubuntu 18.04 image which was created on VMware imported into AWS. Upon boot the instance reports a hostname "ubuntu". when I do a "hostnamectl set-hostname test", the hostname does change for the active session, but not upon reboot.06:40
jonssonsThe final goal needs to be to get the default AWS hostname (which is the private dns address)06:41
rigel_jonssons: try /etc/hostname?06:41
jonssonsrigel_: yes, I did try to change it there, no luck06:41
jonssonsI have tried to change the kernel.hostname in the sysctl config. I do see it changing during boot to that hostname, but a few seconds later, it reverts to "ubuntu"06:42
jonssonssee pastelog: https://pastebin.com/ZfnT1PUH06:42
jonssonsin the pastebin log you also see at 6:34:33 the hostname is actually set to what I expect it to be, but the change is never effectuated06:43
jonssonsit appears the system is not listening to systemd-hostnamed06:43

foophoof_Hiya, I have an Nvidia eGPU connected to my laptop running Ubuntu 19.04, and it was working well up until an update 1-2 days ago. I'm not entirely sure what changed, but it looks like Prime has taken over. The eGPU is still used, but I can only get video on the internal display, the external ones don't work. If I launch in Wayland mode they all work, but mouse tracking is super slow.10:18
foophoof_Is there a way to just...disable prime entirely and check if that helps?10:19
james_brownhow do i add my laptop's public key to my server that has password connection disabled?11:11
BluesKajHi folks11:11
OerHeksjames_brown, copy key to usb, and walk to the server11:44
JimBuntujames_brown, put the pub key contents inside the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file, on a single line11:46
OerHeksthat requires a connection first..11:47
james_brownOerHeks exactly11:49
james_brownbut i cannot connect because password login is disabled and my key is not on the server11:49
james_brownis enabling password login the only way?11:49
wasanzyhello11:49
wasanzyis there any security implication using tmux on linux?11:50
TJ-wasanzy: no more than any other tool11:50
JimBuntujames_brown, don't you have any other login capabilities for the server?11:50
james_brownJimBuntu nope11:50
geirhayou must be able to get into it somehow, how else are you able to enable/disable password login?11:50
TJ-james_brown: for a remote server? no OOB access?11:51
JimBuntujames_brown, so, because of this, you can't even get in to change password authentication or anything?11:51
james_brownwell i have physical access to the server11:51
JimBuntuwasanzy, I have never heard of any issue and I also use tmux11:51
TJ-james_brown: ahhh, os OerHeks's solution is the one then11:51
james_brownTJ- I see, what is OOB tho?11:52
JimBuntuout of box, james_brown11:52
geirhayou can also put it on a pastebin somewhere, and wget/curl it on the server11:52
james_brownJimBuntu nothing to do with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out-of-band_management?11:52
JimBuntuoh, could be james_brown11:53
TJ-james_brown: Out Of Band11:53
wasanzyJimBuntu, ok11:53
james_browngeirha yeah thought about that one11:53
james_brownalright, thanks for the help folks!11:53
OerHeksoh, how did you do that ... anyway, boot in recovery mode, enable password again11:53
TJ-james_brown: if you have local console access you can SSH *from* the server to your client and pull your key that way11:54
james_brownTJ- thats what i was looking for!11:54
james_brownTJ- but the only thing i was finding on google was how to push the key into the server11:54
TJ-james_brown: assumes you're on the same network and no firewall/NAT to get in the way of course11:54
james_brownTJ- yeah theyre on the same lan11:55
geirhassh user@laptop 'cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys11:56
james_brownwait, but in that case i need to enable ssh on the laptop11:56
geirhayes11:56
james_browni see11:56
JimBuntuprobably need to install sshd and enable that11:56
james_brownalright thanks!11:56
TJ-james_brown: so you'd do "scp me@myworkstation.local:.ssh/id_rsa.pub ~/.ssh/myworkstation.pub" then " echo "$(cat ~/.ssh/myworkstation.pub)" >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys  "11:59
TJ-james_brown: make sure to append (>>) not over-write (>) !11:59
geirhacd "$(mktemp -d)" && cp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub . && python -mSimpleHTTPServer   now it's temporarily shared via http. On the server:   curl -s laptop:8000/id_rsa.pub >> .ssh/authorized_keys12:00
james_brownTJ- yup! thanks12:01
geirhaor, since it's just one file, nc would've sufficed12:01
james_browngeirha wow thats a cool one12:01
james_brownisnt my config file on the server supposed to be in ~/.ssh/config?12:03
OerHekslikely it is /etc/ssh/sshd_config12:06
OerHekshttps://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/openssh-server.html12:06
james_brownOerHeks that file does not have all the configurations i set12:06
TJ-james_brown: only if you have a per-user SSH config; for incoming connections the default system-wide is /etc/ssh/ssh_config12:06
james_brownOerHeks like port number, disabling password login etc12:06
ioriajames_brown, that  file overrides the settings in the global setup12:08
bad_catjames_brown: ~/.ssh/config (or the system-wide /etc/ssh/ssh_config) is for the client configuration - server configuration happens in /etc/ssh/sshd_config12:10
OerHeksif you did not edit sshd_config on the server, you might can get in with password12:11
james_browni remember configuring a config file changing the port it listens to, disabling password connection etc...12:11
james_brownand i cant find that file12:11
JimBuntuI would expect that to be /etc/ssh/sshd_config12:12
james_brownit is not the /etc/ssh/ssh_config file12:12
bad_catjames_brown: likely /etc/ssh/sshd_config12:12
TJ-james_brown: that'd be the server config as OerHeks pointed out, /etc/ssh/sshd_config (note the 'd' )12:12
JimBuntunote the 'd' please12:12
james_brownooooh12:12
james_brownok let me check12:12
james_brownomg im a retard12:12
james_brownmb12:13
james_brownthanks!12:13
JimBuntuno, mistakes are easy james_brown12:13
Sonderbladeon ubuntu 18.04, clang++ doesnt work. it cant find the iostream header12:28
chullHi I'm trying to help my husband recover from his hard drive crashing.  His backup is a bit messed up. We can't get firefox to see the internet and I have no idea where the tabs are to find out what version it is - it's Ubuntu 18.04?12:33
ioriaSonderblade, and g++ works ?12:35
chullcan someone please remind us how to get an updated version of firefox in ubuntu?12:35
geirhajust install any pending updates12:36
geirhafirefox is one of the few packages that actually gets bumped to higher versions. Most other packages are frozen12:37
geirhathough I doubt the firefox version matters that much. More likely something is wrong with the network settings12:40
Sonderbladeioria: yes12:40
ioriaSonderblade, what version of clang ?12:40
Sonderbladeioria: 6 default but i also have 7 installed12:41
ioriaSonderblade, and g++ ?12:41

ioriaSonderblade, can you try with clang6 ?12:42
Sonderbladeyes, same thing happens12:43
B|ack0phi.12:46
ioriaSonderblade, sudo find /usr -name "iostream"12:46

geirhaB|ack0p: microsoft's truetype fonts has crappy licence and can't be bundled with ubuntu's package, so instead, you have to accept their licence, then the package will download the fonts from sourceforge during install12:52
ioriaSonderblade, compile with clang++ -Wall -c -o etc. etc .12:53
B|ack0pgeirha:  ubuntu popped up that to me not microsoft12:53
B|ack0pi authorise with my password to install but it makes me wait long time..12:54
B|ack0pnothing happens12:54
ioriaSonderblade, sorry, compile with clang++ -Wall -c -E -o etc. etc .12:54
aLeSDhi guysd12:54
geirhaB|ack0p: I tried installing that package myself, and got the same message. sourceforge said "forbidden" in the logs12:54
aLeSDwhat 'set -x' command does ?12:54
B|ack0phmm12:54
B|ack0pwhat can i do?12:54
geirhaB|ack0p: do you need those fonts?12:54
geirhaaLeSD: it enables the xtrace mode of the shell, which causes the shell to output all the commands it runs on stderr12:55
B|ack0pi dont but if ubuntu requests maybe they are usefull somewhere12:55
geirhaaLeSD: useful for debugging shell scripts12:55
aLeSDgeirha, thanks12:57
ioriaSonderblade, i guess that for some reason clang picks the wrong directory and cannot find libstdc++.a12:57
geirhaB|ack0p: Did you install some other package recently, it might have had that font-package as a recommended package12:58
chullThanks! Updating seems to have worked wonderfully :)12:58
B|ack0pi installed codec pack and some graphics drivers12:58
B|ack0pmesa drivers etc12:58
geirhaB|ack0p: well, you can retry the installation by running   sudo apt install --reinstall ttf-mscorefonts-installer   in a terminal, but I don't think you'll get much problems from them missing; you just won't see ms fonts like Arial in font selectors, but there are many open source alternatives13:00
B|ack0pi closed now. if i receive same error i will try again13:00
B|ack0pthanks13:00
geirhamight just be a temporary hickup on sourceforge's part13:00
B|ack0pbut something is corrupting wallpaper13:01
B|ack0pi am running ubuntu 18.04 on an old laptop that graphics driver is not supported as i know13:01

hays_I was hoping to get help with making my ubuntu installation much smaller. I am running a raspberry pi 3 server image and its currently at 4.6GB13:41
hays_is there any way to figure out how to start removing/purging packages to bring it down smaller13:41
hays_maybe sorting the installed packages by size? something to give me a start at this13:42
pragmaticenigmahays_: The ubuntu RPi image is already as small as it can be. the packages that were included are necessary to operate your computer. There isn't anything to be removed.13:44
zfoohays_: look at ubuntu core, there's an image for the rpi and its much smaller13:48
hays_I will check it out13:49
leftyfbzfoo: ubuntu core is not ubuntu server13:50
hays_zfoo I think I shied away from this because it said I had to create an Ubuntu SSO account to make the first user, which seemed a bit much13:50
hays_what technical reason would there be for that requirement13:51
leftyfbubuntu core is not a drop-in replacement for ubuntu server. It's all based on snaps and mainly meant for IoT solutions13:51
zfooleftyfb: correct but you can still install what you need and use it as a server13:51
leftyfbzfoo: not true13:51
leftyfbzfoo: there's no apt package management so all your packages need to be snaps. Not all packages are available as snaps13:52
zfooleftyfb: my bad, I wasn't aware it was snap only, only recommended it as I knew it had a small install size13:54
hays_so it doesn't seem possible that both (1) ubuntu server is already as small as possible and (2) ubuntu core is much smaller13:55
leftyfbhays_: yes it does. ubuntu server != ubuntu core13:55
leftyfbthey are 2 completely different platforms13:55
hays_is there an option that is minimal, but includes apt and access to the core repositories?13:56
hays_is there any reason if I am not developing things, that I would need linux-headers, linux-modules14:03
hays_hm.. I'm guessing ripping out python3.6 is a bad idea14:06
hays_even though I actually want/need python 3.714:07
pragmaticenigma!latest | hays_14:15
ubottuhays_: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.14:15
B|ack0pon screen indicator signs not appearing on my desktop14:15
B|ack0pwhat could be the problem?14:15
pragmaticenigmahays_: And you would be correct, not wise to remove the version of Python that was included. A large portion of the system tools are written in python14:15
pragmaticenigmahays_: The kernel headers are not for development, they are used by other packages to check for compatibility. In Linux, many applications share libraries, the headers help applications know what environment they are a part of14:17
pragmaticenigmahays_: For computers like the Raspberry Pi, it's best to look for a distribution that meets your needs and requirements, than to attempt customize it. If you are looking for a smaller OS footprint, you might want to look at Raspian, It has many of the same familiar tools you are accustomed to on Ubuntu14:22
hays_there are many reasons one might choose a distro, which all need to be weighed14:24
hays_even if one facet is not ideal, it still might be the best choice14:24
hays_it seems like I installed linux-modules because something I am using wanted "modprobe config" to work14:28
thothcastel_hello guys14:32
thothcastel_I am using ubuntu and I would like to use rsync to transfer 100% of the data from source to my freenas14:33
thothcastel_I need it ot be accurate but I am struggling in getting the right command14:33
thothcastel_can you please help with the switches?14:33
thothcastel_amount of data is about 1TB14:33
=== lotus|i5 is now known as lotuspsychje
Cheezi mean on the face of it for that all you should need is rsync -a (and -v if you want to watch what it's doing)14:34
thothcastel_Cheez: thanks for that14:37
thothcastel_I will try it out14:37
thothcastel_is there a switch for outputing the -v to a text file14:37
thothcastel_instead of watching with -v I would like it saved to a text file14:37
leftyfbthothcastel_: man rsync14:37
Cheezit's just stdout, you can direct it same with any other command14:38
Cheezthere might be an output to file switch though, check the manpage as leftyfb said :)14:38
leftyfbthothcastel_: look for --log-file14:38
thothcastel_ok thanks14:39
thothcastel_I am there now14:39
thothcastel_I guess I will also need recursive for sub fodlers14:39
Cheez-a includes recursive, check the manpage for --archive14:39
Cheezit lists all of the flags it implies14:40
hays_anyone know what I might do to resolve "modprobe: FATAL: Module config not found in directory /lib/modules/4.15.0-1041-raspi2"14:43
thothcastel_rsync -av > log.txt will input into a file14:44
thothcastel_thanks fguys14:44

Some_PersonI was wondering if it's possible to get a Qt application installed using Snap to use the system's Gtk theme15:51
pragmaticenigmaSome_Person: You would have to reach out to the maintainer of the snap or the developer of the original application for that type of assistance.15:54
Some_Personpragmaticenigma: Sounds like the answer is "no" then :(15:55
Some_Personunless I uninstall the package and compile from source15:55
pragmaticenigmaSome_Person: Snaps are run in a containered environment. The snap maintainer needs to modify the snap so the application can read the settings file of the currently applied theme to the desktop. But also, the original developer may have removed that functionality as they desired the application to appear with a specific theme in mind15:57
=== dEvie is now known as vie
=== vie is now known as Evie^2
Some_Personpragmaticenigma: I suspect it's more of an oversight15:58
Some_PersonI have my system set up to use the current GTK theme for all Qt applications, and it works for everything I have except this one stupid application that uses snap15:58
pragmaticenigmaSome_Person: Snaps are by design defaulted to the most restrictive permissions. If I may ask, what is the application?16:00
FaTaL_Gis anyone on who is savvy with Ubuntu 18.04 + WIFI (As an AP) + ornory Broadcom drivers: Mind you, I had this working for nearly 2 years on 16.04, so I know it workED16:00
pragmaticenigmaFaTaL_G: Typically placing your question instead of asking for "anyone" is more effective. In this situation, I would recommend asking in #ubuntu-server or ##networking16:02
Some_Personpragmaticenigma: QXmlEdit16:02
Some_PersonI mean, it's obviously still functional, it's just a pet peeve of mine when an application doesn't fit in with the system's theme16:03

FaTaL_GI'll join those other channels too, but since it worked on 16.04......16:05
FaTaL_Gseems the upgrade to 18.04 broke it... so I'd suspect this is a right channel :D16:05
pragmaticenigmaFaTaL_G: This channel focuses on the desktop edition of Ubuntu... what you're requesting is more related to tools and features of a server. Do note that 16.04 to 18.04 made a change in how network connections are managed16:06
`mistnvm i hadn't pushed in the usb connector for the keyboard all the way in.....16:07

FaTaL_GBluesKaj, I am using the interfaces file for the 6 ports as a br0, which includes the w1p2s0 on that bridge. I let the system manage it auto up. But I do manually issue ifup ifdown when I have problems or when troubleshooting.16:16
FaTaL_GBluesKaj, are you mentioning the wifi issue I have or the occasional loss of forward facing traffic I posted last night?16:17
BluesKajFaTaL_G, no i missed your wifi issue, had to reboot into new kernel version a few mins ago16:18
FaTaL_Gno problem16:18
FaTaL_GI'd love to fix the internet facing issue. it seems to be working atm, but only time will tell16:19
FaTaL_Gsyslog doesnt contain anyhting useful about the "error"16:19
FaTaL_Gbut pinging name or ip of a known good source yields nill. If I ifdown then ifup, it works16:19
BluesKajFaTaL_G, I was just curious, not many users use the interfaces file anymore, most use NM16:20
FaTaL_GI may benefit from switching to it16:20
FaTaL_GI like having cml control.... so its the main reason I dont16:21
BluesKajFaTaL_G, I'm too lazy setup wifi in the interfaces, since it's somewhat complex so i use NM on my laptop16:22

pragmaticenigmarapidwave: If you are speaking to a specific person, it helps to prefix your messages with their name. It makes it easier to follow the conversation if someone is trying to help you with your issue16:41

rapidwaveNo one specific....16:41
rapidwaveI was talking about my problem, but also commented on B|ack0p's issue16:42
B|ack0pyes16:42
MrCrackPotB|ack0p, just download the theme and add it to your .theme folder16:43
B|ack0pok16:43
MrCrackPotif the theme doesnt show up check your index.theme and themerc files16:43
B|ack0pbetween budgie and xubuntu desktop which one is lighter?16:43
MrCrackPotxubuntu16:43
MrCrackPotits also more stable16:43
* rapidwave never heard of budgie16:44
MrCrackPotbudgie is quite new16:44
B|ack0pi finished installing budgie16:44
MrCrackPotlike this year or last16:44
B|ack0pbrb to reboot16:44
B|ack0pcan i install xubuntu desktop on 18.04 ?16:44
B|ack0pi mean ubuntu 18.0416:44
rapidwaveYes, xubuntu has been around for a while16:44
B|ack0pok16:45
B|ack0pbrb then16:45
=== foophoof_ is now known as foophoof
Casper26If /boot is it's own partion can it be unmounted without taking down the system?16:46
rapidwaveWow. Were all those names B|ack0p?16:46
daxrapidwave: all which names?16:47
rapidwaveA bunch of Connection reset by peer stuff16:47
daxrapidwave: no, that's just the matrix.org bridge restarting again16:47
rapidwaveWhat is that?16:47
pragmaticenigmarapidwave: a fancy proxying service16:49
=== gabkdlly_ is now known as gabkdlly
rapidwaveNot sure why that is needed, but okay16:50
dax*shrug* ask the people who decide to use it i guess16:50
pragmaticenigmarapidwave: best to read up on it on their site... does some really interesting connectivity features16:51
MrCrackPotCasper26, /boot is only needed when the system is booted thats why you can have boot partition on a usb device16:51
MrCrackPotonce its booted its no longer required16:52
MrCrackPotCasper26, https://www.crybit.com/linux-boot-process/16:52
Casper26Thanks that what i was thinking got a couple of servers i need to convert boot from ext2 to ext4 cant really take them down16:53
CatPasswdOk, fine. I've been poking around and searching docs, but can't find an answer... Pulseaudio always resets volume to 100% when I restart a paused video. I can't find a way to make my volume setting stick16:53
MrCrackPotCasper26,16:54
MrCrackPotyou do not need ext416:54
MrCrackPotext2 is enough16:54
g105bCan anyone help me understand why this disk is mounting as read only? Contents of /etc/fstab: /dev/disk/by-uuid/E8B81F44B81F10A4 /mnt/bigdisk auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show,x-gvfs-name=Big%20Disk 0 016:54
Casper26Just wanted to bring them inline with my other servers16:54
pragmaticenigmaCasper26: The differences between ext2 and ext4 wouldn't benefit the boot partition16:55
Casper26Ok so sounds like a waste of my time then16:56
pragmaticenigmaCasper26: I'd agree, and the risk to corrupting the boot partition seems a little high16:57
MrCrackPotpragmaticenigma, corrupting the boot partition shouldnt be a problem as long as he/she does a backup first16:58
MrCrackPotchanging the format from ext2 to 4 would need a format anyway16:58
MrCrackPotits one of the beautiful things of linux i love i can copy paste my partitions to another system with minimal change to get things running again without an install16:59
MrCrackPotalthough you must redo fstab16:59
dami0hi, i have netplan 0.36 on ubuntu 18.04, can i set a route through ifup scripts and have it work fine with netplan? i need a route with source defined which doesn't work on netplan 0.3617:03
tomreyndami0: /join #ubuntu-server17:04
Casper26MrCrackPot: So tune2fs won't work on /boot partiton without reformat?17:04
tomreyndami0: that's if this is a server / systemd-network backend, but maybe also with the NM backend.17:04
dami0tomreyn: thanks, joined ubuntu-server, it is17:05
dami0tomreyn: never mind, sorted it by a firewall rule for now17:09
sarnoldFaTaL_G: excellent! :D great news, thanks for reporting back17:11
kinghatif you were going to install a .snap locally would you just replace the store name with the local path-to-file?17:14
pragmaticenigmakinghat: I think you need to provide more information on what it is you're attempting to do17:17
tomreynMrCrackPot, pragmaticenigma: Personally, I like a journal on /boot, so upgrading to ext3/4 makes sense to me. And for what I can tell (not certain there) it's possible to upgrade ext2 to ext and ext3 to ext4.17:18
thothcastel_I am adding the below to etc/fstab17:18
thothcastel_/192.168.0.40/procopionas/DATA/'BLUE Usb Hard Drive - WD My Passport'/ /mount/PrococopioNAS/ cifs username=test1,password=test2,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 017:18
tomreyn*ext2 to ext3 and ext3 to ext417:18
MrCrackPottomreyn, wouldnt it need a format though to change17:18
thothcastel_https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/d5BpUwLE/17:18
kinghatdev is releasing snaps that are not in the snapstore yet. software.snap needs to be installed manually.17:18
thothcastel_but I am getting this error17:19
thothcastel_what is wrong with my line?17:19
tomreynMrCrackPot: i don*t think so, no. but again, not certain. why do you think it does?17:19
MrCrackPottomreyn because its like changing from nfts to fat32 or similar when ever i have done this its always needed to be formated17:20
MrCrackPottomreyn seems your correct https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/migrate-ext2-ext3-filesystem-to-ext4/17:21
MrCrackPotsorry for spreading miss info17:21
MrCrackPotive always done a nice clean format and then just copied over the files and updated fstab17:21
MrCrackPoti suppose im being anal though17:22
thothcastel_help please17:22
thothcastel_i need my ubuntu box to mount at reboot17:22
thothcastel_rying to add the below to the fstab - but it is giving me an error17:22
tomreynMrCrackPot: a format is probably the best choice if you can make it easily, since there are some file system properties which cannot be changed on an existing file system and may default to different values on mkfs.ext4 now than on mkfs.ext2 back then17:24
thothcastel_can somebody invite me to #linux channel please?17:24
thothcastel_join ##linux17:25
MrCrackPoti dont think there is a #linux17:25
thothcastel_one must be invited only17:25
MrCrackPotits ##linux17:25

tomreynCasper26: see the discussion above between MrCrackPot and me.17:25
MrCrackPotwhen you try to join it will auto send you to ##linux17:25
MrCrackPotfor an example thothcastel_ try joining #security it will redirect to ##security and warn you #security is invite only17:26
Casper26Got it thank you all for help much appreciated!!17:26
MrCrackPotCasper26, not a problem next try moving your boot to a usb thats always fun17:27
thothcastel_I understand thanks for that17:27
thothcastel_but I get a popup saying that it is a channel with 'invite only' joining17:27
Casper26I would imagine so lol17:27
pragmaticenigmathothcastel_: Did you join #linux?17:27
thothcastel_now after many attempts - although I wasn't in today17:28
thothcastel_now it says 'it cannot join channel17:28
MrCrackPotah pragmaticenigma it seems im wrong again and there is a #linux only i only get a warning after trying to join from ##linux17:28
MrCrackPotim not doing to well tonight with miss information17:28
tomreynthothcastel_: #linux redirects to ##linux. if you are already in ##linux then try to join #linux you will get this misleading message.17:29
tomreynthothcastel_: in other words, just ignore #linux, it does not exist.17:29

kinghatwhen manually trying to install snaps "error: cannot find signatures with metadata for snap "notable_1.7.0_amd64.snap""17:29
MrCrackPottomreyn, now im so confused is this because of the whole name change cchanel malarky17:29
thothcastel_##linux is refusing my connection17:30
thothcastel_anyway I thought ubuntu channel would help17:30
thothcastel_common issue i guess17:30
thothcastel_mounting at reboot17:30
thothcastel_editing fstab17:30
pragmaticenigmathothcastel_: STop17:30
thothcastel_getting a parsing error17:30
tomreynkinghat: how do you mean "manually installing snap"?17:31
kinghatsudo snap install software.snap17:31
MrCrackPotremove .snap ???17:32
tomreynkinghat: and "software.snap" is a snap available in the snap store?17:32
tomreynkinghat: if you're trying to do an offline installation, see https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/offline-snap-installers-and-possibility-to-update/275/217:34
kinghatthe snap is not provided in the store yet. dev just has it on his github: https://github.com/notable/notable/releases/tag/v1.7.017:35
tomreynso see the link i posted17:36
tomreynthothcastel_: which ubuntu version are you on (lsb_release -ds)?17:37
thothcastel_tomreyn latest stable17:37
tomreynthothcastel_: please run the command i provided if you don't know the exact version17:38
thothcastel_Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS17:38
kinghatumm how is it possible to do snap download x if its not in the store?17:38
tomreynkinghat: skip this step if you already have the file17:39
tomreynthothcastel_: show how you try to mount the cifs share, and what the error message is that is returned when you do. use a !pastebin17:41

kinghatif youre not doing ack command on the snap because you dont get updates anyways then the only think left is the install command?17:44
ioriakinghat, maybe you need the --dangerous flag : sudo snap install --dangerous  notable_1.7.0_amd64.snap17:44
thothcastel_tomreyn: https://pastebin.com/D9A9b5BK17:46
tomreyni don't think you'll be able to install a local .snap unless you ack it beforehand17:46
* Mac1ek says hello :)17:47
tomreynsince it involves declaring trust in its signer.17:47
kinghati think its working17:48
kinghatsays installed17:48
tomreynthothcastel_: and this is line 13 in your fstab?17:48
thothcastel_yes17:49
tomreynthothcastel_: when testing, don't use mount -a, instead specify the mount point defined in fstab, or specify all parameters in the beginning.17:50
Mac1ekthothcastel_: youe have wrong order in fstab17:52
tomreynthothcastel_: i think the issue here is that you will need to present the blank spaces differently. try escaping them ("\ ") after reoving the single ticks. if this doesn't work, try replacing them by url-encoded spaces ("%20") or plus characters ("+"). If neither works, maybe enclosing the *full* uri in single or double quotes will work.17:52
Mac1ekthothcastel_: //servername/sharename  /media/windowsshare  cifs  username=msusername,password=mspassword,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm  0  017:53
Mac1ekthothcastel_: "cifs" must be on third place, not second17:53
tomreynoh Mac1ek is right, i hadn't noticed17:53
kinghatdo appimages store their configs like any other style of packages in .config dir?17:54
russwI have `aptitude upgrade` and `apt-get upgrade` reporting wildly different actions. Why would this be?17:56
russwhttps://bpaste.net/show/7Fk017:56
russw(reason for eveb tryign this is that my normal go-to is aptitude, but it failed with a weird dpkg error... `apt-get update` did the same, though)17:56
tomreyn!aptitude | russw17:57
ubotturussw: Like apt and apt-get, aptitude is a terminal frontend for Ubuntu's package management system. Unlike the others, it is not recommended in Ubuntu because its behavior differs significantly from other Ubuntu package management tools and can cause issues.17:57
russwargh17:58
russwdidn't it used to be the recommended one?17:59
russwor am I mixing up with debian?17:59
tomreyncenturies ago, yes17:59
sarnoldrussw: weird. try deleting /var/lib/apt/archives/libdns-export1100* and try again17:59
tomreynit'll be the same on debian17:59
russwsarnold: was just going to try that17:59
russwso what is the recommended one? apt, or apt-get?18:00
thothcastel_Mac1ek: tomreyn I am trying all options you suggested18:00
tomreynyour specific issue there is just that the libdns-export1100 package you have there is probably broken. a bad third-party package source, i guess18:00
thothcastel_do I need -t switch before cifs ?18:00
sarnoldrussw: apt upgrade is better than apt-get upgrade or apt-get dist-upgrade -- but sometimes apt-get dist-upgrade is needed to sort out specific problems18:00
thothcastel_Mac1ek: the order of cifs doesn't seem to matter because if I mount with cifs as a second parameter, then the mount command it works18:02
thothcastel_but my problem is when adding it to the fstab18:02
Mac1ekthothcastel_: fstab is not a direct parameter for mount18:02
tomreynthothcastel_: in your fstab line, the "cifs" column needs to be moved one column to the right.18:02
thothcastel_tomreyn:18:03
thothcastel_https://pastebin.com/ufbyPMtT18:03
russwsarnold: I recall instructions like that (apt-get vs apt) in the guidelines for one of my last dist-upgrades18:03
thothcastel_I tried all of these options18:04
Mac1ekthothcastel_: try change the order in fstab... //192.168.0.40/procopionas/DATA/'BLUE Usb Hard Drive - WD My Passport'/  /mount/PrococopioNAS/ cifs username=myuser,password=mypassword,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 018:04
tomreynthothcastel_: not those i meantioned, though. i didn't suggest escaping the single quotes, but blank spaces, after removing single quotes.18:04
thothcastel_Mac1ek:  I have done that18:04
thothcastel_the same result18:04
thothcastel_tomreyn:  ok I will have it a go now18:05
tomreynyou don't want "-t" in fstab18:05
Mac1ekthothcastel_: have you tried: //192.168.0.40/procopionas/DATA/BLUE\ Usb\ Hard\ Drive\ -\ WD\ My\ Passport/  /mount/PrococopioNAS/ cifs username=myuser,password=mypassword,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 018:05
tomreyn^ looks good18:05
russwsarnold: I tried deletinf just the .list file first (per advice I saw elsewhere), and now I have the same problem with libpq5. This is not giving me a warm and fuzzy feeling. :(18:06
thothcastel_tomreyn   //192.168.0.40/procopionas/DATA/BLUE\ Usb\ Hard\ Drive\ -\ WD\ My\ Passport/ /mount/PrococopioNAS/ cifs username=myuser,password=mypassword,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 018:06
russwhttps://bpaste.net/show/LBum18:06
thothcastel_the same result18:06
thothcastel_by the way the SMB share is seating on a FreeNAS box18:07
tomreynthothcastel_: well try the other options i suggested when you get back to it. or read up on how to correctly handle blank spaces.18:08
thothcastel_so I wonder whether the sec=ntlm should be changed to something else18:08
tomreyn...in cifs mounts18:08
Mac1ekthothcastel_: look at http://www.simpit.com/wordpress/?p=62618:08
thothcastel_tomreyn: there is only one more option to try from your suggestions18:08
thothcastel_%2018:08
thothcastel_I will do that now18:08
Mac1ekthothcastel_: you need \040 instead of space18:08
sarnoldrussw: hmmmmmm. that's odd. maybe an apt install --reinstall libdns-export1100 -- *maybe* that will be enough to fix up the "assuming package has no files" issue18:09
Mac1ekthothcastel_:  //192.168.0.40/procopionas/DATA/BLUE\040Usb\040Hard\040Drive\040-\040WD\040My\040Passport/ /mount/PrococopioNAS/ cifs username=myuser,password=mypassword,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 018:09
Aavarare there any good text based browsers that can browse modern websites?18:12
Aavarthat supports javascript and so on.18:13
Mac1ekAavar: try w3m, elinks or lynx18:14
russwsarnold: I may have borked things. I deleted the all the libdns-export1100 files AND the lipq5 files (from /var/lib/apt/archies/)... and now my docker-ce is broken :(18:14
russwsarnold: https://bpaste.net/show/8Ux918:14
russwsarnold: (that state is after a few successive updates and upgrades, some with apt-get by mistake)18:14
tomreynAavar: not that i know of, "brow.sh" (not in ubuntu, i think) is an attempt to to achieve this.18:14
thothcastel_Mac1ek: thanks for the link18:15
thothcastel_I thought it would work now18:15
thothcastel_but now I have a  different error 218:16
Aavartomreyn, thanks. Let me check that.18:16
AavarMac1ek, as far as I know, non of them supports javascript. thanks anyway :)18:16
Mac1ekAavar: look at https://askubuntu.com/questions/34687/is-there-a-text-mode-browser-which-supports-javascript18:18
sarnoldrussw: what's your dmesg look like? this is *werid*18:18
sarnoldrussw: also weird. or wierd. I can't spell today. or any day.18:19
russwsarnold: definitely weird spelling :)18:19
sarnold:D18:19
russwsarnold: dockerd is segfaulting18:19
Mac1ekthothcastel_: what error?18:19
russwsarnold: (in dmesg)18:19
sarnoldrussw: just once? or over and over?18:19
sarnoldrussw: anything else segfaulting? io errors?18:20
AavarMac1ek, let me check :)18:23

mysticproper way to install tor browser please? ive tried many ways already18:24
bitx8mystic: have you checked out tails?18:25
mysticyes, but i want it in ubuntu also please18:26
mysticbut it wont start18:26
mystictails is great by the way18:26
mysticthere are at least three guides on the internet, copy and paste guide. and all three dont work.  very useless18:27
mysticanyone ?18:28
sarnoldrussw: ugh. this machine looks unhappy :( those ext4 errors are troubling; it's hard to judge if the dockerd errors are a simple programming error that you keep hitting or if it's eg bad memory. probably a programming error18:28
sarnoldrussw: I suggest checking smartctl stats on the drives.. maybe memtest86 or memtest86+ ..18:29
sarnoldmystic: hopefully this can help you get good help on irc http://rurounijones.github.io/blog/2009/03/17/how-to-ask-for-help-on-irc/18:29
mystici cant do the git hub stuff.. its too hard to use and navigate to the package etc18:29
mystici just use command pastes before and it worked.. but there are too many on google. i dont know what one works18:30
russwsarnold: I also did a double-atke on the ext4 error. This is actually for a VM running on a host with ZFS, so I'm a bit surprised about data errors.18:30
sarnoldrussw: double surprise :(18:31
russwsarnold: I think next steps are debugging docker stuff, and that is where I'm at.18:31

ubottuTor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en18:42

OerHeksdo not use our tor package.18:42

mystici think i did it.  nothing happened tho. but i got no errors at least18:51
MrCrackPotlotuspsychje, sorry thats my fault im trying to figure out if its his window manager or Desktop environment he needs to change18:52
plmAavar interesting that if I start a usb live choosing "try ubuntu without install" both screens works. After installed both  screens works. But after I do the login, one screen go to black and o other just mouse works.18:52
tomreynB|ack0p: /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults discusses the gdm defaults. if you want to reset those, use gsettings. example to list the current settings for /org/gnome/login-screen: gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.login-screen18:52
Aavarplm, are you on a laptop?18:52
MrCrackPotalthough its a little weird you pull him on it but not for the language thats been used here18:52

tomreynB|ack0p: i thin lotuspsychje is suggesting you mention my name when you're responding. this will help me notice your response.18:53
Aavarplm, you have to find a way to run the settings app, but I don't know the command.18:54
TJ-plm: is the log-in to a a fresh user profile, rather than one that has inherited settings?18:54

Aavarmystic, I said capital L, but that will do...18:56
mystici  did.. those are the results18:56
TJ-plm: the difference *may* be the type of session you have on the Live vs on Installed; it could be the Live is using X11 (Xorg) whereas installed may be (trying to) use Mutter, the Wayland display server in Gnome18:56
B|ack0pappearantly desktop or window manager is not working properly..18:56
B|ack0pon my old laptop18:56
Aavarmystic, no, that is the result if you run with a non capital l.18:56
Aavarmystic, run torbrowser-launcher18:56
plmAavar hey18:56
mystichttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/n9xwfGYdXF/   i did it18:57

lotuspsychjeB|ack0p: your current question is?18:58
tomreynB|ack0p: i see, sorry to hear this. i won't be able to support you there unles we (re)discuss those details. right now i'm just trying to help you restore the default gdm (graphical login manager) configuration, since this seemed to be what you asked for.18:59

Aavarmystic, did you download the tarball?19:00
mysticyea, ive zero chance myself19:00

Aavarok. in your Downloads folder?19:00

Aavarmystic, start your terminal and run cd ~/Downloads19:01

MrCrackPotmystic sudo apt install libcanberra-gtk-module libcanberra-gtk3-module19:02

AavarMrCrackPot, thanks. I'll wait with the tarball dor now :)19:02
mysticcommand not found mr crackpot19:02
MrCrackPotsudo apt install libcanberra-gtk-module libcanberra-gtk3-module19:03
mysticwhy wont hexchat let me copy..19:03
Aavarmystic, I think you need to know some basics of the terminal. use the tab key to complete commands for ease of use.19:03
MrCrackPotit works fine for me19:04
tomreynB|ack0p: you can reset-recursively those branches listed in /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults and then rename .config to .config_old in your home. by this time you should be able to login to a default gnome-shell again - and then cherry pick those directories from .config_old/ (to .config/) you still need19:04
mysticwell i cant type it right19:04
Aavarmystic, as I said earlier. Use your middle mouse button to paste.19:04
B|ack0ptomreyn: thanks19:04
Aavarmystic, just mark the text and use your third button in terminal to paste.19:04
mysticbut i cant copy from hex chat19:04
MrCrackPotmystic, so type it19:05
mysticim trying to type it19:05
russwsarnold: you may appreciate the "fun" of this... my ssytem was so messed up I rolled back to a zfs snapshot from hours ago (zfs rocks) and it was STILL a problem. The gust filesystem was mounting readonly due to orphaned inodes.19:05
mysticits hard to do it correct19:05
Aavarmystic, if you mark the text in hexchat and click your third button in terminal if will paste.19:05
russwsarnold: fsck time and this was the result: https://bpaste.net/show/50Rw19:05
mystici think i id it it installed something19:05
mystici did it *19:05
Aavarmystic, Btw. you can use ctrl+shift+c to copy from hexchat.19:06
russwsarnold: system is now working, but... fingers crossed and I do feel a bit nauseous :)19:06
mysticthanks i'll try to remember19:06
Aavarmystic, then try to run torbrowser-launcher in terminal again.19:06
* MrCrackPot falls asleep on keyboard19:06

lotuspsychjemystic: can you please not type random chat in the support channel, focus on ubuntu questions and patient please19:46
mysticim not.. i thought maybe peple can suggest something...19:46
lotuspsychjeAavar: still got gnome installed?19:47
Aavarlotuspsychje, yes. That is what I'm running.19:47
mystici will do a fresh install... maybe the 5 to install attempts messed the innards up19:47
Aavarlotuspsychje, le me check if it's working in xfce or unity7 (my desktop of choice these days)19:48
lotuspsychjeAavar: you installed several desktops ontop of ubuntu-desktop?19:49
mysticnow i get an error when i try to reinstal lthe os from usb..  some message then a 'grub'   prompt.   no menu or nothing19:50
OerHeksAavar, there are more claims that it does not work, maybe touchpad-indicater is your help, find your personal settings in timing, http://www.linuxandubuntu.com/home/how-to-disable-touchpad-while-writing-article-or-documentation-in-ubuntulinux-mint-or-derivatives-linux19:50
mysticwha thappened to my boot menu after installing ubuntu 19.04.3?  now i cant reinstall it19:51
Aavarlotuspsychje, working in xfce, but not unity7...19:52
mysticcant evne use ubuntu anymore.. ok, by efor now19:52
Aavarlotuspsychje, I even tried a different user... thats weird I think. I'll google a bit and see what I can find ;)19:55
lotuspsychjeAavar: maybe unity handles it differently, check unity-tweak-tool?19:55
OerHeksunity 7 .. missed that19:55
AavarUnfortunately there is no setting for that in unity-tweak-tool.20:00
AavarFuck... I installed touchpad-indicator and now it fucked my touchpad settings.20:06

OerHeksAavar, well, that guide is not written for unity7 ..20:18
AavarOerHeks, what guide? (i'm sorry, I believe I have lost some of the feed)20:19
OerHeksabout that touch inducator ..20:20
OerHeksso, remove that i guess20:20
AavarOerHeks, ok :) Yeah, I did. And I found a guide to reset the settings to normal. For some reason the fact that "dissable touchpad when typing" is not working is not as irritating in unity as it where in gnome.20:21

RojolaI installed Apache2 and PHP 7.0 on Ubuntu 16.0422:25
Rojolahow can I tell Apache to know that PHP exists?22:25
tomreynhow?22:25
coz_Is there a way to stop caja from writing the desktop as we were able to do with nautilus  in gnome 2? The only reason, for me, is the ability to use the compiz reloaded wallpaper plugin properly22:25
Rojolatomreyn, info.php  shows  <?php phpinfo(); ?>  in the browser22:26
tomreynRojola: i mean how did you install Apache2 and PHP 7.0 on Ubuntu 16.04?22:26
Rojolatomreyn, apt install php apache222:26
Rojolatomreyn, apt show php shows:  Depends: php7.022:27
Rojola# php -v22:27
RojolaPHP 7.0.33-0ubuntu0.16.04.5 (cli) ( NTS )22:27
OerHeksFinally, restart Apache to allow PHP to run: systemctl restart apache2.service22:28
tomreynRojola: there are a couple ways to connect the two. the easiest is probably mod_php, but it's not well suited for shared hosting. do you host multiplewebsites managed by different people?22:28
Rojolatomreyn, it's one single vhost on one single vserver22:28
Rojolaiptables and fail2ban are in place22:28
RojolaOerHeks, I already restarted Apache twice22:29
tomreynRojola: did you a2enmod php beforehand?22:29
Rojolano22:29
Rojolagood idea...22:29
Rojola# a2enmod php22:29
RojolaERROR: Module php does not exist!22:29

tomreynRojola: well, install it then ;)22:31
RojolaI installed php22:31
Rojolacan I trust ondrej ?22:32

Rojolaa private repository for php 7.222:32
Bashing-omMibix: What does the system see ' dpkg -l | grep -i nvidia ; lsmod | grep nvidia ' ?22:32
OerHeksMibix, make sure your motherboard is Pci Express 2.0, https://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-710/specifications22:32
tomreynRojola: you probably haven't installed libapache2-mod-php7.0. and you'll need to decide yourself whether want to go with ondrej's (apparently well done) php back-/forward ports or use ubuntus. i can't recomend one over the other.22:34
Rojolatomreyn, what is more risky?  Going with the old PHP 7.0, or trusting a private repository to get the newer PHP 7.2 ?22:35
tomreyni don't know, you decide22:35

Larco_scarsaHi guys, I would need some help with a live-usb ubuntu 18.04 boot problem on a ryzen 3700x + rtx 2080 super.... I do precise that i already installed several linux systems in the past22:36
Mibixits detecting it in the system details22:36
Mibixjust not in the nvidia x server settings :/22:37
Larco_scarsasee the thread here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2424497&p=13878577#post1387857722:37
Mibixwhen i do inxi -Gx it lists it too22:37
Rojolathank you tomreyn, everything works now!22:39
Larco_scarsaAnyone?22:40
tomreynLarco_scarsa: do a bios update, disable secureboot (you can enable it later if needed), make sure you use ubuntu 18.04.*3* (asterisks to stress) to install. boot the installer with !kernelparm amdgpu.dc=0 if still needed.22:40
tomreyn!kernelparm | Larco_scarsa22:40
ubottuLarco_scarsa: To add a one-time or permanent kernel boot parameter see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters22:40
Mibixgrrrrrrrr22:41
Rojolaone more question:  I created a huge, huge, huge file with md5-checksums before I will "rsync" a directory from one server to an other:22:41
Rojolafind . -type f -exec md5sum '{}' \; > ../md5sum.txt22:41
RojolaMy plan was, to run the _same_ command on the new server, and then use "diff" to compare "md5sum.txt" of the old server with the one from the new server22:42
tomreynLarco_scarsa: the  “Couldn’t get size: 0x800000000000000e”  message is most likely not an indication of the issue preventing the boot from succeeding. i have a ryzen 1800 with rx580 which prints this message every boot but works fine otherwise.22:42
Rojolahowever, I wondered, if the program "md5sum" can check the generated file against the directory recursively?22:42
Larco_scarsaI already did a bios update. I think that secureboot is disabled in my bios but i will check it. And i will try the  !kernelparm amdgpu.dc=0 fix22:43
Larco_scarsaAs i was saying in the thread: when i am getting the error message, the screen freezes so that I cannot go further in the installation process22:44
tomreynLarco_scarsa: make also sure that your iso image download is comlete and not corrupt (!checksum) and that the image wa properly written to your usb storage22:44
tomreynLarco_scarsa: you did not comment on which ubuntu version you used to install. also note that there are also non-graphical installers which may help getting the installation done and botting to the full non-graphical system, which can ease further analysis.22:46
Larco_scarsaYeah my bad I was trying to install ubuntu-mate-18.04.3-desktop-amd6422:47
Larco_scarsaAs for non-graphical installer, I am not familliar with22:48
Larco_scarsabut I will seek for informations on them22:48
tomreynLarco_scarsa: ignore the amdgpu.dc suggestion, i was somehow thinking you were using an amd gpu. with nvidia you may need to use nouveau.nomodeset=122:49
tomreynLarco_scarsa: oh mate, that's good to point ut since it's different to the default ubuntu installer, i think.22:50
brandonkalHello, I have a list with some non english characters. I would like to get a list with lines with only A-Z,a-z,0-9,-. I'm not familiar enough with awk/grep to know how to do this so I would appreciate some help.22:51
tomreynLarco_scarsa: for non-graphical installers, your choice is between ubuntu (live) server installer, ubuntu alternative server installer, mini.iso, debootstrap22:51
sarnoldrussw: oh my YES hal fixing a lightbulb describes my evening the other night *perfectly* :)22:51
sarnoldrussw: how's your machine looking?22:52
tomreynbrandonkal: /join #bash  (or your favourite shell)22:52
brandonkalWill do. Thanks.22:52
Larco_scarsaAs for the integrity of the iso file: I was able to boot on it on my laptop, so i think that it is indeed nvidia related22:54
tomreynLarco_scarsa: my guess, too. so try nouveau.nomodeset=1 or just nomodeset22:55
tomreyn!bootlog | Larco_scarsa: as a last resort on the graphical installer (before you try the text based ones)22:56
ubottuLarco_scarsa: as a last resort on the graphical installer (before you try the text based ones): To get a more verbose log of the boot process, add the following !kernelparm: debug systemd.log_level=info22:56
tomreynLarco_scarsa: and i'm off to bed (please repeat the issue / question / what you tried so far / answers to my questions to get help from someone else should all of this fail)22:58
Larco_scarsaoki thanks for the help, I will try those fix and if all goes well, I will mark my thread as solved22:58
Larco_scarsasee ya22:58
tomreyngood luck.23:00
