| mrdavidagroves | I need help. I used to dual boot Windows 10 and Ubuntu. I wanted Ubuntu off my laptop. I went into windows and I went to Disk Management. I deleted the partition containing Ubuntu then expanded my windows partition to reclaim that free partition. When I boot my laptop I get a grub shell, like a command prompt but for grub. I can still get into Windows by hitting ESC while booting and selecting boot options and scrolling to w | 06:15 |
| mrdavidagroves | indows, but how can I remove grub and just boot normally into windows without having to hit esc? I have tried everything I have found online with no avail... | 06:15 |
| Sveta | mrdavidagroves: did you try the suggestions from https://askubuntu.com/questions/429610/uninstall-grub-and-use-windows-bootloader/654913 , as well? | 06:17 |
| mrdavidagroves | one moment let me check this out | 06:17 |
| mrdavidagroves | I have tried the first one where you get into the EFI volume and remove the ubuntu boot directory, the second one when I try to do "bootsect /nt60 C: /mbr" the first thing cmd.exe tells me is that is updated the NTFS filesystem bootcode. It may be unreliable since the volume could not be locked during update, access is denied. Then it tells me Bootcode is only updated on MBR partitioned disks. A different partition scheme i | 06:22 |
| mrdavidagroves | s used on this diso, bootcode was successfully updated on all targeted volumes. The last one where I boot from windows 10 usb and try the bootrec /fixmbr command I always end up getting an access is denied error | 06:22 |
| Sveta | you need to run these commands as admin | 06:23 |
| mrdavidagroves | I have ran them as admin | 06:23 |
| mrdavidagroves | I always open cmd.exe as admin | 06:23 |
| Sveta | I suppose you already asked ##windows channel about this? | 06:24 |
| mrdavidagroves | the only thing i have not done is to reinsteall ubuntu and install the bootrepair using the ppa given and ran that command | 06:24 |
| Sveta | I am not sure how access works in that system | 06:24 |
| mrdavidagroves | I have an I get the same answers I have already tried, I was hoping someone here could help. I am about to pull my hair out | 06:24 |
| Sveta | they do not know why your access is denied, correct? | 06:24 |
| mrdavidagroves | yes and i cannot really find any answers online either and the ones i have found did not work | 06:25 |
| Sveta | mrdavidagroves, hmm, I have found https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6gB5Akuyms , maybe you would like to try that | 06:29 |
| mrdavidagroves | bruh bring it on, ill try anything | 06:29 |
| mrdavidagroves | one moment and ill check it out | 06:29 |
| Sveta | they open cmd from some advanced options thing, not like usual | 06:30 |
| Sveta | and also assign the volume a letter, and change to some correct directory first | 06:31 |
| Sveta | I don't know which of these steps is more important | 06:31 |
| Sveta | in any case you need to make a backup first | 06:31 |
| mrdavidagroves | I will have to reboot and try this, I shall report back | 06:34 |
| mrdavidagroves | Sadly that did not work, still getting the access is denied messages :( | 06:57 |
| mrdavidagroves | I wanna scream | 06:57 |
| Sveta | hmm | 06:59 |
| Sveta | https://www.maketecheasier.com/fix-windows-mbr-from-ubuntu/ <-- you could do this, but without installing (use live cd or live usb) | 06:59 |
| murlidhar | is there a gd software in our repositories that can help us send files from the desktop to a phone that is connected to the same network . say same wifi. ??? | 07:01 |

| mrdavidagroves | kinda | 07:52 |
| mrdavidagroves | That last one did not work so I started getting mad and screwing with every BIOS setting I had. Turns out there was a setting I did not see that allowed me to change the OS boot order, it was kinda hidden. But I changed it to boot to Windows first and now it works. The Ubuntu option is still there but it is now hidden. | 07:54 |

| stevenm | Hey, what is the generally accepted fix/workaround for dealing with keyboards that for some keys pressed (e.g. multimedia keys) they send keycodes higher than 255? | 11:11 |
| stevenm | I know it's a known issue, I just can't work out from 10+ years of people talking online about it - what is generally the most up to date workaround for it (and I say workaround as I don't think it'll get fixed, probably not until were all on wayland) | 11:12 |
| lotuspsychje | stevenm: do you have a bug ID on that? | 11:13 |

| leftyfb | stevenm: if you have a rare bug that is is over 12 years old and spans multiple distro's, this probably isn't the best support channel to get help with it. I would stick with the reported bug, mark yourself as affected and help out by providing information to the reported bug about your system and environment. This channel is filled with volunteers from the Ubuntu community who try to help with issues as best they can. | 11:27 |
| stevenm | "This channel is filled with volunteers from the Ubuntu community who try to help with issues as best they can" <-- this I know. And if all I got was no reply back, I'm fine with that. | 11:27 |
| stevenm | but if I happen to stumble upon someone reading the channel logs who knows of the same issue (I know a long shot)... then that'd be great. That's the only intention I had here. | 11:28 |
| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 11:29 |
| stevenm | so e.g. an old fix from what I can find was to install something called 'evrouter' to remap these higher keycodes - but as of the X.org that shipped with 8.10 that doesn't work now | 11:32 |
| lotuspsychje | stevenm: hence why the developer is asking new information... | 11:33 |

| pragmaticenigma | alekksander: I do not accept PMs, if you have an offtopic question, you can join #ubuntu-offtopic | 14:36 |
| brutser | how can i troubleshoot this after i completed that whole process, it took me long time | 14:36 |
| alekksander | pragmaticenigma: i think it is ubuntu related though. i have not noticed that kind of behavior with other distros | 14:36 |
| pragmaticenigma | brutser: How long are you waiting for the process to complete... My laptop takes up to 30 seconds to boot after I type in my volume decryption key (though I am not using LUKS on that particular volume) | 14:37 |
| brutser | well i waited 30 minutes | 14:37 |

| bane500 | i type my password and it acts like it wants to load the ui, but then redirects me back to the login screen | 14:44 |
| bane500 | like i don't have a profile or something | 14:44 |
| bane500 | any ideas? | 14:44 |

| Ryu22 | is there supposed to be some other chat for ubuntu mate? | 15:04 |
| genii | !mate | 15:04 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu MATE is a supported !flavor of Ubuntu that uses MATE as the default desktop environment. It functions similarly to older versions of GNOME. For more information, see https://ubuntu-mate.org/ | 15:04 |
| luna | Ryu22: #ubuntu-mate | 15:05 |
| genii | hm, channel isn't listed in that factoid | 15:05 |
| nacc | because it's also supported here? dunno | 15:05 |
| Ryu22 | uh | 15:06 |
| nacc | Ryu22: sorry, I don't immedaitely see it in backscroll, did you have a specific issue? | 15:07 |
| Ryu22 | I have issue with display drivers I can't really get to install it on any linux distro | 15:09 |
| Ryu22 | I'm on ubuntu mate tho | 15:09 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: whats your card chipset and mate version? | 15:10 |
| Ryu22 | Uh don't really know about chipset do you mean processor? and mate version is 1.20.1 | 15:12 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: could you pastebin this please: sudo lshw -C video && lsb_release -a && uname -a | 15:12 |
| Ryu22 | and? | 15:13 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: share with the volunteers in a pastebin please | 15:14 |
| lotuspsychje | !paste | Ryu22 | 15:14 |

| Ryu22 | yep so many | 15:18 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: like what kind of? | 15:18 |
| Ryu22 | lagging and half screen playing video little late Idk how to describe it and then after some time everything crashes down to black screen | 15:19 |
| Ryu22 | well it takes hours to crash tho | 15:21 |

| deadrom | heya | 15:24 |
| deadrom | xubuntu, xfce4-session-logout --hibernate won't hibernate. does not do a thing. no error, no nothing. what's wrong? | 15:25 |
| Ryu22 | I forgot to mention it haven't crashed on mate yet I just installed a few hours ago but it used to when I had mate in past and it does crash in other linux distros i.e. Ubuntu, Fedora, Cent OS | 15:27 |
| pragmaticenigma | deadrom: Are you asking about suspend-to-disk or suspend-to-ram ?? | 15:28 |
| deadrom | to disk. to ram actually works. swap has 48GB , system has 32, so should suffice. | 15:28 |
| bitx8 | deadrom: do you actually have a 48G swap partition? | 15:29 |
| gst568923 | Why Ubuntu 19.04 not support wpasupplicant with PMF capabilities??? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpa/+bug/1827757 | 15:31 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1827757 in wpa (Ubuntu) "PMF" [Undecided,New] | 15:31 |
| pragmaticenigma | deadrom: suspend to disk doesn't use swap. that said, there are hardware checks in place before either operation takes place, it is possible a component does not comply with the power state request | 15:32 |
| deadrom | where does suspend-to-disk write its data to, then? | 15:32 |
| pragmaticenigma | deadrom: Make sure you have at least 32 gigs of available, non-encrypted drive space available | 15:32 |
| deadrom | check | 15:33 |
| pragmaticenigma | deadrom: What is the result of this command: cat /sys/power/state | 15:33 |
| deadrom | pragmaticenigma: freeze mem disk | 15:34 |
| deadrom | 18.04 LTS, installed fresh, not an upgrade from older systems while I kept /home, though | 15:35 |
| deadrom | pragmaticenigma: wait, *where* does it need 32gb? on / ? | 15:35 |
| deadrom | pm-utils are obsolete in 18.04, systemd handels power matters, right? | 15:36 |
| Ryu22 | hey? | 15:37 |
| pragmaticenigma | deadrom: I'm trying to find documentation on suspend to disk, so far I was only able to find the command to verify the power state is supported | 15:37 |
| pragmaticenigma | !patience | Ryu22 | 15:37 |
| ubottu | Ryu22: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ | 15:37 |
| pragmaticenigma | deadrom: You should be able to execute the command "systemctl hibernate" | 15:38 |
| deadrom | pragmaticenigma: lemme try | 15:38 |
| deadrom | pragmaticenigma: asks for sudo passwd, then screens blank, then desktop comes back and "Failed to hibernate system via logind: Access denied" | 15:40 |
| Ryu22 | tbh I don't know what's the problem to begin with to check on internet I tried tho but ok I will have patience... | 15:41 |
| pragmaticenigma | deadrom: Because it was systemctl... there might now be something journald or syslog to help troubleshoot | 15:41 |
| pragmaticenigma | Ryu22: We are all volunteers here, and most are doing the same as you with web searches in attempt to help you out. The first place I start with is, did you have any of the experienced graphics glitches when you booted form the live install media? | 15:44 |
| qswz_ | help me guys, I've presed some keys, and got in a terminal, I can't manage to get back to the desktop view. All I could do is run irssi and come here | 15:44 |
| qswz_ | ctrl+alt+f5 I've pressed | 15:45 |
| thebishop | hi friends, i have a hp spectre x360 (late 2018 model). when i press F5 to toggle the keyboard backlight, *sometimes* it triggers the lock screen. | 15:45 |
| Ryu22 | uh wdym | 15:45 |
| thebishop | backlight off -> press F5 -> Ubuntu locks | 15:46 |
| deadrom | qswz_: alt+f7 | 15:46 |
| gst568923 | nothing ? | 15:46 |
| qswz__ | sorry back, I messed up again | 15:47 |
| deadrom | Ryu22: quick recap of the issue? | 15:47 |
| Ryu22 | Can't get desktop driver installed and experiencing lag and screen glitches | 15:48 |
| Ryu22 | same issue in every linux distro | 15:48 |
| qswz | ok, fixed | 15:49 |
| deadrom | qswz__: alt+fx switches to tty #x. the only exception is to *exit* from graphical to an tty, for that you need to add ctrl, so within X ctrl-alt-fx gets you a tty, alt+f7 gets you back to X | 15:49 |
| deadrom | Ryu22: hardware desciption please, cpu, gpu, possibly chipset or make/model of PC/laptop | 15:50 |
| pragmaticenigma | Ryu22: Let's lay down some foundations.. First, make sure while you are here, you post as much as you can in a single message, it makes it easier for everyone to read and follow along. Next, if you are replying to someone, make sure you start with their screen name, you can usually type a few characters followed by the tab key to auto completed. This will make it easier for those that are helping you to see that you have | 15:50 |
| pragmaticenigma | responded. Finally, do not use abbreviations. Use complete sentences and words. This is a global community and some abbreviations have different meaning to different culters. | 15:50 |
| pragmaticenigma | Ryu22: What I asked is, when you installed I assume you used the Live USB method. Meaning you can try Ubuntu (or its flavors) before installing. Did you experience any graphical issues while in the Live USB session? | 15:51 |
| jayjo | does anyone know of a toolbar way to use openvpn on ubuntu 18.04 LTS? I know the terminal command is very simple "openvpn --config /path/to/sample.ovpn" - but for how often I am switching on/off for work networks it would be really helpful for a toggle. Is there anything available? | 15:51 |
| pragmaticenigma | jayjo: I believe it is supported directly or through installing a package in Network Manager | 15:52 |
| pragmaticenigma | jayjo: sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn | 15:54 |
| crose | Is there a way to increase the default keyboard repeat rate in a virtual console (the one accessed by pressing `Ctrl-Alt-F1`), similarly to what `$ xset r rate 175 40` does under X? | 15:55 |
| pragmaticenigma | crose: kbdrate | 15:56 |
| crose | thanks | 15:56 |
| deadrom | pragmaticenigma: you petrified Ryu22. add a line to the "ropes talk" at the end "we are not mean, we are efficient" or something like that. | 15:57 |
| Ryu22 | deadrom, Processor: AMD APU A-4 6300, Don't have GPU only APU And Idk about chipset And it's a PC | 16:01 |
| === BurekzFinezt is now known as Burek | ||
| Ryu22 | pragmaticenigma, I'm sorry for posting too many texts and no didn't experience anything while installing except it was a bit laggy in test mode while installing | 16:04 |
| pragmaticenigma | Ryu22: Lag is normal. The reason I ask, in the live installer, the default opensource drivers are used. If you attempted to install the proprietary graphics drivers, they are likely the reason you are having issues. I would recommend removing them, or if you haven't gotten to invested in the system. A reinstall might be quicker. | 16:06 |
| Ryu22 | pragmaticenigma, I've been trying to install proprietary drivers but I always get errors and I did try reinstalling I tried several distros the only problem is I can't really install those drivers I don't have much experience either | 16:13 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: you might wanna test some higher !mainline kernels as a test or !hwe | 16:15 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, you mean try different kernal for my motherboard? sorry I don't really get much... | 16:17 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: your ubuntu-mate has now kernel 4.15 and you experience problems, so as a test you could try hwe or higher mainline kernels | 16:17 |
| jayjo | pragmaticenigma: i installed it, now in my 'Settings > Network' pane I see Wired and VPN, in VPN I have the option to use an OpenVPN setup. I see 'import from file' which seems to only populate the gateway. Not sure how to proceed with the "Authentication" options | 16:19 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, ok how? | 16:19 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: lets try HWE first: from a terminal: sudo apt install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-18.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04 | 16:20 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, alright it's downloading | 16:21 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: after that you can reboot, do you know howto switch kernels in grub? | 16:21 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, no I don't.. and first of all how do I get into grub? | 16:22 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: well after the installation it will automatic boot into the hwe kernel, but in case something goes wrong you might need to boot back into 4.15 | 16:23 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: to enter grub, hold shift at boot and you can switch ubuntu kernels | 16:24 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, oh ok so I just restart now and hold shift to enter grub menu? | 16:24 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: just restart now and if something would go wrong and you cant boot, try reboot and enter grub to load 4.15 | 16:25 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, Alright will do thanks~ | 16:26 |
| aruns | Hi, running Ubuntu 16.04, have php7.2-fpm installed, but /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php7.2 seems to be missing? I have php5.6-fpm and php7.1-fpm installed, where both /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5.6 and /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php7.1 exist. I just reinstalled php7.1-fpm and the binary still isn't showing. I have php7.2 set as my default version of the PHP interpreter through update-alternatives, and there is /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php, | 16:28 |
| aruns | which acts as a symbolic link to /etc/alternatives/php-cgi-bin. Any ideas as to what is going on? | 16:28 |
| \nilz | how did you install php | 16:29 |
| aruns | sudo apt-get install php5.6-fpm php7.1-fpm php7.2-fpm | 16:30 |
| KWhat4 | Why is my default ubuntu user have a umask of 002? Where is this set? | 16:30 |
| aruns | Plus any modules each version requires. | 16:30 |
| \nilz | KWhat4 i assume you find the right answer here: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/disco/en/man5/login.defs.5.html (global: /etc/profile, user ~./.profile) if im correct | 16:33 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, was it supposed to boot back normally? I mean I don't have experience with kernels.. | 16:33 |
| elektromacumba | hi, i'm trying to create deb packages for kernel 5.1.15 using "make deb-pkg", it create only linux-headers-*.deb, linux-image-*.deb and linux-libc-dev_*.deb but not linux-modules-*.deb. What's wrong? | 16:33 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: yes, check: uname -a please? | 16:34 |
| kinghat | any of you guys have firefox developer edition installed? | 16:34 |
| KWhat4 | Ryu22 I think its closer to /etc/login.def | 16:35 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/m8TrCFX43h/ | 16:35 |
| KWhat4 | Particularly USERGROUPS_ENAB | 16:36 |
| Ryu22 | wdym? | 16:36 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: yep looks good you booted on hwe 5.0.0.23 now please test your screen issues? | 16:36 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, alright | 16:36 |
| KWhat4 | If USERGROUPS_ENAB is set to "yes", that will modify this UMASK default value | 16:37 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, the problems doesn't seem to be resolved and I don't get what you mean KWhat4 | 16:39 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: ok, do you have time to file a bug? | 16:40 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, ok sure but I don't have desktop drivers installed of AMD?? cuz I think that's what causing the problem Idk for sure.. | 16:41 |
| KWhat4 | Ryu22 apparently the umask 002 (instead of the default 022) is auto applied if the uid == gid and USERGROUPS_ENAB is yes | 16:41 |

| Peanut | Hi folks - I've built the 'audacious' and 'audacious' plugins from source (apt source audacious, apply a small patch, dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -nc, sudo dpkg -i). This results in two packages: audacious, and audacious-plugins. Both with the same version number as the currently released. When I apt-update, it always wants to update audacious-plugins, and I don't understand why? | 16:52 |
| lotuspsychje | Peanut: we dont really support compiling from source, reccomended to use packages from the official repos | 16:53 |
| Bashing-om | Ryu22: Well so much for my thoughts :( | 16:53 |
| aruns | ? | 16:53 |
| Peanut | lotuspsychje: Ouch, is that the official policy? The issue is more with the apt tools, not compiling. What would be a good place to get help there? | 16:54 |
| Ryu22 | Bashing-om, lotuspsychje I also experience same sorts of glitches on other linux distros | 16:54 |
| physkets | Hi! | 16:56 |
| physkets | Does ubuntu use AppArmor by default? | 16:56 |
| lotuspsychje | Peanut: maybe #ubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-discuss | 16:56 |
| Peanut | lotuspsychje: Ok, thanks. | 16:56 |
| OerHeks | !apparmor | 16:57 |
| ubottu | For information about the AppArmor security framework employed in Ubuntu (since Gutsy Gibbon), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor | 16:57 |
| physkets | okay, so it does... so I was hoping I could ask about an issue I'm having | 16:58 |
| OerHeks | physkets, sure | 16:58 |
| physkets | (eventhough I'm not using Ubuntu rightnow) | 16:58 |
| OerHeks | oh | 16:58 |
| physkets | it is purely AppArmor, and my distro does not use it by default, so I wasn't getting any help on its cahnnel | 16:59 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: do you have a launchpad account please? | 16:59 |
| physkets | So I recently began using AA, and am now in the process of making a profile for Firefox | 16:59 |
| physkets | I do have a fairly populated profile right now, and am running it in complain mode | 16:59 |
| physkets | But I'm unable to view any Amazon Prime Videos... it tells me that the DRM plugin is unavailable | 16:59 |
| physkets | and when I switch off AA, then it begins to work | 17:00 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, what's that? | 17:00 |
| physkets | Anybody know why? And how I can fix this? | 17:00 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: its the website that handles bugs for ubuntu | 17:00 |
| physkets | lotuspsychje: why can't you make your own? | 17:02 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, wait up I'll check | 17:03 |

| lotuspsychje | physkets: sorry? | 17:03 |
| physkets | oh, nvm... | 17:03 |
| physkets | I thought you needed an account to do something, and idn;t have your own | 17:04 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, ok registered | 17:08 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: ok, now from a terminal: ubuntu-bug linux | 17:08 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: this will popup a new window, and you can send the bug report | 17:10 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, I did | 17:11 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: now it will open the launchpad in your browser, asking for the bug title, write something relevant, like screen glitches happen at... | 17:12 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, in summary? | 17:13 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: yes | 17:13 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, can you tell me what to put there? I'm confused 4 | 17:14 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: the bug title, think of something compact that happens to you.. like: screen glitches on the desktop (or where ever you have them) | 17:15 |
| pragmaticenigma | jayjo: It might ask you for credentials on first connect, I'm not certain though | 17:18 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: after the title, it will ask you to write a bug description, = your story of what happens and write also with kernels you have tested | 17:19 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, alright | 17:20 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: thank you for taking your time to file bug #1839864 | 17:25 |

| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, ok | 17:27 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: you can also save your dmesg to a .txt file and add it as attachment to your bug | 17:27 |
| ryusaku | Hi. I have many files in different subfolders. Some files are named "Name More Name 00", "Name More Name 01", etc. If I would like list all the files with that name structure, I could do "find /mnt/drive | grep "Name More" and it would list every file. What I want to do, is that I want to move those files; find /mnt/drive | grep "Name More" | xargs -I@ mv @ /mnt/drive/collected - but it does not work | 17:31 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, how do I attach the file? | 17:31 |
| ryusaku | xargs: unterminated quote | 17:31 |
| lotuspsychje | ryusaku: first create your dmesg.txt file by copy pasting it from terminal: dmesg, then at bottom of your bug, you can add an attachment | 17:32 |
| ryusaku | If I just used (...) | grep Name | xargs (...) it would work, but then it would collect other files as well, that does not have the same structure. e.g. "Name - Johnsen.txt" | 17:33 |
| ryusaku | oh, like, what for? sorry, i do not understand. for pasting it here on irc? :s | 17:34 |
| Ryu22 | uhh | 17:34 |
| ryusaku | lol | 17:34 |
| Ryu22 | alright I got it | 17:34 |
| ryusaku | lotuspsychje : you meant Ryu22 ? | 17:34 |
| ryusaku | sorry :) | 17:34 |
| lotuspsychje | ryusaku: yeah my bad | 17:35 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, done | 17:36 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: is that your complete dmesg and not only a part of it? | 17:37 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, that's all I got in terminal | 17:37 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: did you right mouse click in terminal, select all? | 17:38 |
| craigbass76 | Is anyone here on the "official" documentation team at Canonical? | 17:39 |

| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, no it doesn't have that | 17:41 |
| lotuspsychje | craigbass76: what are you looking for to do? | 17:41 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, it has edit in top thingy bar | 17:41 |

| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, deleted the old one and uploaded other | 17:47 |
| craigbass76 | lotuspsychje, I work at Linux Academy (tech writer) and we're doing a course on Ubuntu. I was just trying to make sure I've got the right caps schema. | 17:47 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: looks the same.. | 17:48 |
| craigbass76 | Actually, if there are any LA students in here, I've got different questions, but that's a whole other ball of wax. | 17:48 |
| lotuspsychje | craigbass76: caps schema? | 17:48 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, uhh Idk but I did update | 17:49 |
| craigbass76 | lotuspsychje, With the capital U | 17:49 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: right well.. now you can wait until developers update your bug, you will get emailed on changes | 17:50 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: if you do some tests yourself, please also update your own bug at the bottom | 17:51 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, oh alright I will | 17:51 |
| lotuspsychje | craigbass76: still not clear what you want/need... | 17:52 |
| craigbass76 | lotuspsychje, Subiquity, or SUbiquity? | 17:52 |
| lotuspsychje | craigbass76: what about them? | 17:53 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, is it ok if I change my os to windows for now after some testing? cause I need a working computer | 17:53 |
| lotuspsychje | Ryu22: you are the owner of your machine, your choice.. | 17:54 |
| Ryu22 | lotuspsychje, oh ok then thanks again for helping me~ I will leave now. | 17:55 |
| lotuspsychje | ok good luck | 17:55 |
| nabeelr | Hey all! I need some help with ubuntu and openssh-server. | 18:20 |
| nabeelr | I should say ubuntu server. | 18:20 |
| nabeelr | Long story as short as possible: I can’t authenticate with SSH. It always rejects my password. | 18:21 |
| nabeelr | After a whole bunch of testing, I found that if I chage my user password to something shorter, it will work | 18:21 |
| pragmaticenigma | nabeelr: what program are you using to connect to your SSH server, and how long of a password are you attempting to use? | 18:22 |
| nabeelr | So now I can log in, but if i try to do sudo -i it goes back to saying my password doesn’t work anymore. | 18:22 |
| nabeelr | ssh built into mac os x, and the password is..... | 18:22 |
| nabeelr | one sec.... | 18:22 |
| pragmaticenigma | "one sec...." is not a very secure password | 18:22 |
| Habbie | is it the length, or perhaps some special character that behaves weird on your keyboard? | 18:23 |
| nabeelr | the password is 40 char long. | 18:23 |
| nabeelr | the only special char is “-“ and it will otherwise pass through fine in ssh. | 18:23 |
| nabeelr | I made it a simple 4 digit password, can auth with ssh now, but sudo won’t work via ssh. | 18:24 |
| nabeelr | but will locally. | 18:24 |
| pragmaticenigma | nabeelr: For securing SSH I would look into setting up SSH to only allow Key authentication. That way it doesn't matter how long the user password is, the SSH server will only accept a key to gain access | 18:24 |
| nabeelr | That’s definately on the list of things to do, but right now I’m trying to figure out why I can’t use sudo when SSHing in. | 18:25 |
| nabeelr | It doesn’t seem to make any sense. | 18:25 |
| pragmaticenigma | nabeelr: Try the previous password when using sudo | 18:25 |
| nabeelr | I did. | 18:25 |
| nabeelr | Locally on the machiene, everything is fine. | 18:25 |
| nabeelr | sudo works | 18:25 |
| nabeelr | the password is the same for both sudo and login. | 18:25 |
| pragmaticenigma | sudo locally works with the same password used locally? | 18:26 |
| nabeelr | yep. | 18:26 |
| nabeelr | but when sshing in, it just says that it’s the wrong password. | 18:27 |
| pragmaticenigma | nabeelr: And you logged out and back in again via SSH after changing the password? | 18:27 |
| nabeelr | yep. | 18:27 |
| nabeelr | even rebooted. | 18:27 |
| nabeelr | restarted SSH. | 18:27 |
| nabeelr | the whole 9 yards. | 18:27 |
| nabeelr | it’s also a fresh install of ubuntu and openssh-server. | 18:28 |
| nabeelr | ubuntu server i should say. | 18:28 |
| nabeelr | 18.04.3 LTS to be exact | 18:28 |
| pragmaticenigma | nabeelr: Do try to keep as much as you can on a single post. The bot will eventually silence you for spamming | 18:28 |
| nabeelr | Sorry. | 18:29 |
| pragmaticenigma | nabeelr: Are both systems set to the same locale, meaning they have the same language and keyboard layouts? | 18:29 |
| brandor5 | hello everyone: can anyone tell me if it's possible for 1604 to support xfs reflink ? | 18:29 |
| nabeelr | pragmaticenigma: I beleive so, but I haven’t explicity checked. | 18:30 |
| nabeelr | ugg… one moment… | 18:31 |
| pragmaticenigma | brandor5: what do you mean by reflink? | 18:32 |
| sarnold | brandor5: this lwn post suggests that reflinks are "no longer experimental (as of 4.16-rc1)" but the newest xenial linux-hwe kernel has version number 4.15.0-55.60~16.04.2 -- I'm going to guess it's not supported in 16.04 | 18:32 |
| nabeelr | Fuck me… In changing the password to something simpler… in my case “1111” I failed to realize that at some point I had created a text replacement for “1111” to type the current date and time. | 18:32 |
| sarnold | oh I forgot the lwn link https://lwn.net/Articles/747633/ | 18:32 |
| brandor5 | pragmaticenigma: I have an xfs filesystem with reflink enabled, is it possible for 16.04 to read such a filesystem | 18:32 |
| lotuspsychje | nabeelr: please keep language family friendly here | 18:33 |
| Habbie | nabeelr, oh oh, that's almost "some character that acts weird on your keyboard" :> | 18:33 |
| nabeelr | Ok, so back to the original problem: Is there a char limit on passwords in ssh? | 18:34 |
| Habbie | if there is, it's not 40 | 18:34 |
| Habbie | or 100 | 18:34 |
| Habbie | i'm pretty sure of that | 18:34 |
| pragmaticenigma | brandor5: I can't see a reason why it wouldn't. XFS is a fairly mature file system. | 18:34 |
| brandor5 | reflink is a new xfs feature... testing with kernel updated now | 18:35 |
| pragmaticenigma | nabeelr: Password are not stored in the manner by which you enter them. They go through a cryptographic hashing algorithm, which means there is no real limit to the length of the password. Only what you can remember is the limit | 18:35 |
| pragmaticenigma | nabeelr: That said, an SSH client may have an artificial limit to what it will accept for a password. This is why I would focus more of your attention towards getting key based authentication working instead. Temporarily weaken your password until you have key based auth up and running. | 18:37 |
| zfoo | pragmaticenigma, this isn't really true, I'm encountered a system that used (I believe) md5 to encode passwords and it only used the first 6 characters entered, you could enter anything you wanted after that and it would work | 18:40 |
| sarnold | zfoo: wow that's horrible so many times over | 18:40 |
| zfoo | yeah, we switch to SHA256 which fixed the issue and allowed longer passwords | 18:41 |
| sarnold | I hope that's not the entire extent of the fix :) | 18:42 |
| sarnold | otherwise it's only a little bit less terrible | 18:42 |
| nabeelr | Wow, two for two… I’m just an idiot who can’t type correctly. | 18:43 |
| nabeelr | Thsi took me the whole morning. I think I’m going to find a ledge and jump off of it. | 18:43 |
| nabeelr | Well… Thanks for all your help everyone. | 18:43 |
| Habbie | sarnold, fixing the truncation did way more than switching the digest type, i'd say | 18:43 |
| sarnold | Habbie: full ack | 18:43 |
| Habbie | nabeelr, please don't jump off a ledge | 18:43 |
| sarnold | Habbie: it'd take a moment to bruteforce the old *possible* password space.. | 18:44 |
| Habbie | sarnold, yes | 18:44 |
| sarnold | nabeelr: aye, we've all typoed passwords. such is life. :) | 18:44 |
| sexy1233 | Hey this is a stupid question, but do phreakers still exist? And is it very common? Or not at all? | 18:44 |
| Habbie | sexy1233, are you sure you're in the right channel? | 18:45 |
| sexy1233 | yeah i'm sure i don't know where else to ask this question | 18:45 |
| coz_ | sexy1233, maybe #ubuntu-offtpic ? | 18:45 |
| lotuspsychje | sexy1233: try ##hackers | 18:46 |
| coz_ | ^^^ | 18:46 |

| gst568923 | hy guys I have ubuntu 19.04 and I downloaded wpa_2.6-21ubuntu3.1.debian.tar.xz to check if wpasupplicant on ubuntu have enabled PMF. Inside this archive there is a string `CONFIG_IEEE80211W=y` but in my distro PMF not works! | 18:47 |
| sexy1233 | do you think #security would be good too? | 18:47 |
| gst568923 | the error is: `NetworkManager[2484]: <error> [1565540278.7751] device (wlxe8de271e366c): Activation: (wifi) couldn't build wireless configuration: 802-11-wireless-security: Supplicant does not support PMF` | 18:48 |

| Intelo | Is it possible to encrypt full hard disk and require a password AND fingerprint at boot time? | 19:03 |
| Habbie | Intelo, random thought: can't your BIOS demand a fingerprint? | 19:04 |
| Intelo | Habbie, ya. cool thought. HOw? Dell xps is what I am using | 19:04 |
| Habbie | Intelo, don't know - that's for you to check | 19:04 |
| Intelo | but is it normal? | 19:04 |
| Habbie | Intelo, i honestly don't know | 19:05 |
| pragmaticenigma | Intelo: Unless your BIOS is able to process finger prints, no. I believe you can use something like a YubiKey for 2 factor authentication however | 19:05 |
| pragmaticenigma | Intelo: It is rare for a device to have fingerprint processing available in the BIOS. Typically, that is a feature found on military and government grade hardware. | 19:06 |
| Intelo | hm | 19:07 |
| Intelo | what is yubikey? | 19:07 |
| Intelo | pragmaticenigma, | 19:07 |
| pragmaticenigma | Intelo: This is a conversation better suited for the #ubuntu-offtopic channel. It is preferred questions here are regarding Ubuntu Desktop OS, and the software pacakages available through Canonical and Ubuntu's official distribution channels. | 19:08 |

| FatByte | Hello | 19:59 |
| FatByte | after upgrading ubuntu server 14.04 to 16.04 SSD utility increased from 8% to 100%. There is a raid6. Has anyone had a similar problem? | 20:00 |
| FatByte | all settings are the same for 14 and 16, but when start writing the disk utility jumps to 100% | 20:02 |
| lordcirth | FatByte, raid6 using what? mdadm? And what are you using to measure the SSD utilization? How long has it been happening? | 20:02 |
| FatByte | lsi megaraid | 20:02 |
| FatByte | i use sar and iostat | 20:03 |
| lordcirth | FatByte, Is it actually slower? Or is it just your utilization metrics? It could be that the kernel update just measures %util differently. | 20:03 |
| FatByte | no, it is not slower | 20:03 |
| FatByte | IOPS are the same | 20:04 |
| sarnold | FatByte: try installing iotop, it might be an easy way to spot what's going on | 20:04 |
| FatByte | so U think it could be a difference into kernel for measure? | 20:04 |
| === im0nde_ is now known as im0nde1 | ||

| transhumanist_ | Hi! with ubuntu remote desktop support is there a way to make access from a 4k monitor able to use the large format display? | 20:06 |
| transhumanist_ | even with the local system only using a 1080p | 20:06 |
| lordcirth | FatByte, I know on my 18.04 servers, SSD %util hits 100% long before the SSD is under heavy load. I wouldn't worry about it. | 20:09 |
| transhumanist_ | maybe a different way of asking what system does ubuntu use for remote desktop connect? is it NOMACHINE or vncserver or TIGHTVNC, etc. etc? | 20:12 |
| texla | Ubuntu 18.04.2 I have a desktop and a laptop both using 18.04..How can I transfer files from the laptop to the desktop when the desktop is hardwired and the laptop wireless | 20:14 |
| transhumanist_ | texla rsync | 20:14 |
| transhumanist_ | or filezilla if you need a gui | 20:15 |
| transhumanist_ | I hear filezilla has been back door'ed though so be warned | 20:15 |
| texla | transhumanist_, thanks for the info | 20:15 |
| FatByte | lordcirth, ok, thanks a lot | 20:16 |
| lordcirth | transhumanist_, a fake copy of FileZilla was backdoored and redistributed. I'm not aware of the real site ever having that problem. | 20:16 |
| transhumanist_ | rsync -avz -e 'ssh' /path/to/local/dir user@remotehost:/path/to/remote/dir | 20:16 |
| transhumanist_ | good to know lordcirth | 20:17 |
| FatByte | texla U can use scp as well | 20:17 |
| transhumanist_ | scp -r /path/to/local/dir user@remotehost:/path/to/remote/dir | 20:17 |
| transhumanist_ | anyone have an answer to either of my questions? | 20:18 |
| lordcirth | scp is simpler than rsync, and rsync's main advantage, incremental diffs, doesn't matter if you're doing it once. | 20:18 |
| lordcirth | transhumanist_, I have no idea about remote desktop, I don't use it. | 20:18 |
| transhumanist_ | I couldnt get NOMACHINE or any of the others to actually connect, so I decided to try remote desktop and it works just doesnt allow you to open a new session or enlarge teh current one | 20:19 |
| transhumanist_ | so it seems anyway | 20:19 |
| transhumanist_ | couple other rsync one lines I use | 20:23 |
| transhumanist_ | sudo rsync -ahPHAXx --delete --exclude={/dev/*,/proc/*,/sys/*,/tmp/*,/run/*,/mnt/*,/media/*,/lost+found} / /mnt | 20:23 |
| transhumanist_ | tar -zcf archive.tar.gz /some/path/to/a/dir tar.gz a file with relative paths | 20:23 |
| transhumanist_ | I didn't write it down but you can also compress it before sending it, perhaps lordcirth would have the one liner for this? | 20:25 |
| TJ- | transhumanist_: that --exclude can be reduced considerably if you use -x/--one-file-system | 20:25 |
| lordcirth | that tar command will compress it already | 20:25 |
| lordcirth | however, one thing that can improve speed over the network is to tar | buffer | ssh -> ssh | buffer | tar | 20:26 |
| transhumanist_ | second one is more like I remember using... thanks | 20:27 |
| helpmeplz00120 | sudo update-grub fails with "/usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 29: /etc/default/grub: /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume: Permission denied" | 20:40 |
| helpmeplz00120 | How do I fix it? | 20:40 |
| transhumanist_ | fyi for anyone interested this ultravnc autoscaling setting takes care of it (ALSO it connects over ssl | 20:43 |
| transhumanist_ | ) | 20:43 |
| transhumanist_ | helpmeplz00120: are you running from a live cd? | 20:44 |
| helpmeplz00120 | no | 20:44 |
| transhumanist_ | I would suggest for anyone to make it easier to use boot-repair | 20:44 |
| helpmeplz00120 | transhumanist_: I am trying to remove the extra entries boot-repair added | 20:45 |
| helpmeplz00120 | https://askubuntu.com/questions/938633/boot-repair-created-too-many-grub-menu-entries-for-windows/1022700 | 20:46 |
| transhumanist_ | helpmeplz00120: try from a live cd is my suggestion | 20:47 |
| transhumanist_ | mine currently looks like that, I didnt really care but I can see why it would be a bother. | 20:47 |
| transhumanist_ | for me I just don't care so long as it boots. I manually set it up the first time and it took forever. I also notice on older but not too old systems where UEFI first came out you can't mix UEFI and non UEFI systems | 20:48 |
| transhumanist_ | that might be part of your issue, I do not know for sure though | 20:48 |
| helpmeplz00120 | transhumanist_This should be fixable without a live cd | 20:51 |
| transhumanist_ | your absolutely right, but it might skirt the problem | 20:52 |
| transhumanist_ | also you might try passwd root ...enter password then su root then try the command again | 20:53 |
| transhumanist_ | oh my god this is so freaking funny! https://tech.slashdot.org/story/19/08/12/1827248/getting-cool-vanity-license-plate-null-is-not-really-a-cool-idea-infosec-researcher-discovers | 20:56 |

| ben-linux23 | hi all, so i got 18.04 with unity setup, and now im trying to respin it and i tried pinguy builder, it didn't pull in my customizations no matter what i try, i put the themes and etc. in .themes and .icons and /usr/share/icons it didnt pick them up in the live iso, so i tried systemback, but it gave me a 5+ gig iso, idk what to do about this, i ran bleachbit, removed some things i dont need, no fix. | 21:54 |
| ben-linux23 | this is just .. idk what to do | 21:54 |
| ben-linux23 | and i did check the ubuntu forums, and other ubuntu sites, no mention of similar issues | 21:55 |
| lordcirth | ben-linux23, have you tried Cubic? | 21:56 |
| ben-linux23 | i did, i couldnt figure it out | 21:56 |
| ben-linux23 | i saw videos, it didnt help | 21:56 |

| ben-linux23 | i didnt find one | 21:58 |
| ben-linux23 | and im looking at this cubic guide and im thinking to myself "this is CRAP" | 21:58 |
| ben-linux23 | and redundant | 21:59 |
| ben-linux23 | and tbh WAY too much work just to make a respin | 21:59 |

| elektromacumba | hi, i'm trying to create deb packages for kernel 5.1.15 using "make deb-pkg", it create only linux-headers-*.deb, linux-image-*.deb and linux-libc-dev_*.deb but not linux-modules-*.deb. What's wrong? | 22:28 |
| tarzeau | the modules are inside one of the created packages? | 22:29 |
| tarzeau | yep my standard deb system doesn't have linux-modules either :) | 22:31 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | Hey | 22:31 |
| tarzeau | dpkg -S /lib/modules/5.2.0-2-amd64/kernel/sound/drivers/snd-mts64.ko | 22:31 |

| tarzeau | that split is ubuntu only, and it already broke my heart several times | 22:32 |
| tarzeau | elektromacumba: all is fine. ubuntu is wrong creating linux-modules*.deb | 22:32 |
| TJ- | tarzeau: the reason is to reduce the footprint of the image files on systems that do not need the modules. Mostly that is virtualised OS on a hypervisor where we have minimal kernel images not kitchen-sink packages | 22:33 |
| elektromacumba | @tarzeau: yes thank you they are inside image package | 22:33 |

| Wikivoyage1029 | Sigyn: Hello? | 22:37 |
| tarzeau | TJ-: not yours, but i've got plenty own i have to support :) | 22:37 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | ash_worksi: Hey | 22:37 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | This channel is dead asf | 22:38 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | Another one that joins | 22:38 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | I don’t get it | 22:38 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | Hello? | 22:38 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | Hello? | 22:38 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | Is this a prank or something? | 22:39 |
| sarnold | Wikivoyage1029: that's just the way irc is. most people have work to do or are asleep or something and only check in occasionally | 22:39 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | Jesus christ | 22:39 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | I have been just away for a week and this channel is dead | 22:39 |
| dax | oh hey it's you again | 22:39 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | ^Peter^: Are you still there? | 22:39 |
| TJ- | tarzeau: the commercial customers deploying tens/hundreds of thousands of VMs (OpenStack) or containers (LXD) want as little overhead as possible in all aspects of those deployments. That is why we have customised linux-image* packages for hypervisors and 'cloud' services, e.g. linux-image-virtual, linux-image-aws, etc. | 22:40 |
| Wikivoyage1029 | Hello? | 22:40 |
| tarzeau | TJ-: when will eatmydata be default? is that preseeded installs? | 22:40 |
| goobs | Hi. I need a tool that will edit my fstab to automount my extra drives. | 22:55 |
| goobs | I don't feel comfortable doing it as the last time I did so, it broke my bootloader. | 22:55 |
| TJ- | goobs: that's what udisks2 is for, combined with udev, it can/will automount file-systems as they are detected (under /media/$USER/$FS_LABEL_OR_UUID | 23:00 |
| goobs | i think i got it, imma send it. | 23:01 |
| goobs | brb | 23:01 |
| TJ- | goobs: if these are permanently connected devices on the other hand they would likely need fstab entries | 23:01 |
| goobs | UUID=fefec9cd-ebbe-4ff5-a5b2-01aaa3596532 /mnt/more ext4 rw,user,auto 0 0 | 23:01 |
| goobs | just jammed that into the fstab at the bottom. | 23:01 |
| TJ- | goobs: OK, that looks reasonable | 23:02 |
| goobs | ay it booted. | 23:02 |
| TJ- | goobs: I'm not aware of any GUI tool that hand-holds you editing fstab though, that's very much seen as a sys-admin task with the expectation the sys-admin knows what not to do :) | 23:03 |
| === The_LoudSpeaker is now known as theloudspeaker | ||
| goobs | It's automounting and in the right dir now. <3 | 23:03 |
| FaTaL_G | I'm looking for a little help getting my broadcom adapter to work on 18.04 as an AP. It worked fine on 16.04. (if up gives me: Failed to create interface mon.wlp2s0: -95 (Operation not supported)) | 23:04 |
| goobs | I love you. Thank you for giving me the confidence to succeed. | 23:04 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: that *sounds* like it may be related to the firmware the device is loading. Do you know if/what firmware file the 16.04 installation used? | 23:05 |
| goobs | But now I can't create directories. :D | 23:06 |
| goobs | chown? | 23:06 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, yes | 23:07 |
| === theloudspeaker is now known as The_LoudSpeaker | ||
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, If you are aware of the games people played with the broadcom chipsets, Im in that boat. I did the hex edit rip of the driver from the source driver file. It worked on 16.04. On 18.04 itt does not seem to work. interestingly enough.... | 23:08 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, when I look at the github, it holds the same file committed to the kernel, and I see posts on a few websites where people claim to have it working at full speed on ubuntu 19.... I also see people saying they have it working on 18.04 | 23:09 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: hmmm, not sure about what it needs.. I stay well clear of proprietary drivers and firmware for just this kind of reason. Causes too many grey hairs! | 23:10 |
| FaTaL_G | some something is amiss, and I really dont know where to start to troubleshoot it. But Im assuming (and that may be a big ass-u-meeeee) that the files that worked on 16 would work on 18, and the posts I see tell me people have suceeded doing it. since I suceeded on 16, .... why on earth cant I on 18 lol | 23:11 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, indeed I am grey... definitely grey-er than last week. | 23:11 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: :p do you have any indications in kernel log of problems when you're trying to do this? | 23:15 |
| FaTaL_G | kernel log? as in dmesg? | 23:15 |
| FaTaL_G | I've looked at dmesg only. lspci and all that shows it laoded | 23:16 |
| goobs | thanks for the help tj- | 23:17 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, ok, apparently it is kern.log.... I will go investigate... thanks. (*im completely new in this area). Time to learn I guess | 23:19 |
| NegativeFlare | ew | 23:21 |
| NegativeFlare | Broadcom, don't even get me started | 23:21 |
| FaTaL_G | wow | 23:22 |
| FaTaL_G | people hate it huh? | 23:23 |
| FaTaL_G | its done alright for me on 16, but I guess I was lucky? | 23:23 |
| NegativeFlare | Yeah, not trying to get too offtopic, but as for me; Broadcom anything has been trash for Linux for years, mainly wifi/bluetooth adapters | 23:24 |
| NegativeFlare | Its all hit and miss | 23:24 |
| FaTaL_G | Thats disappointing, because for what I am doing, Im pretty sure they are the only game in town | 23:24 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: tip for quickly finding problems: "journactl -b -p warning" (-b means 'this boot', -p is --priority and the value is log level names, e.g. err, debug, info, notice, warning ) | 23:25 |
| fling | Which package for shifting uids/gids? | 23:26 |
| sarnold | fling: uidmap probably | 23:31 |
| fling | thanks | 23:32 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, thanks, that does list errors.... (kernel: brcmfmac 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for brcm/brcmfmac4366c-pcie.clm_blob failed with error -2) I wish I still had logs from 16.04, I might... and I wonder if it had errors too. It probably did | 23:33 |
| FaTaL_G | Can I force the kernel to unload and reload those bin files selectively? | 23:36 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: does that mentioned file exist under /lib/firmware/ ? | 23:36 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: only by unloading and reloading the module | 23:36 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, indeed. But thats because I put it there back in 16.04 days | 23:37 |
| FaTaL_G | and I put it there again last week..... but it didnt work | 23:37 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: so if you know what error -2 is that might help | 23:37 |
| FaTaL_G | It says it is channel numbers | 23:38 |
| TJ- | drivers/base/firmware_loader/main.c: "Direct firmware load for %s failed with error %d\n", | 23:40 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ- et.al; sudo lsmod | grep brcm returns: brcmfmac, brcmutil, cfg80211. (I'm not using network-manager). those make sense to be loaded/using the wifi driver? | 23:40 |
| Guest17 | Hi I am having problems with grub and boot-rescue failed | 23:41 |
| === [_] is now known as [itchyjunk] | ||
| Guest17 | Because it ignores NVMe drives and doesn't scan | 23:41 |
| Guest17 | I am unable to boot | 23:41 |
| Guest17 | I tried mounting my drives and running update-grub that failed as well | 23:41 |
| Guest17 | Also Ubuntu live cd doesn't have ifconfig anymore, that's really bad. The GUI interface is broken you have to hack it to get your ip correct | 23:42 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: include/uapi/asm-generic/errno-base.h:6:#define ENOENT 2 /* No such file or directory */ | 23:42 |
| Gerowen | Guest17: I think most distros are ditching ifconfig nowadays. | 23:43 |
| Bashing-om | Guest17: In Bios is SATA mose set to AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) ? | 23:43 |
| Gerowen | You can use the ip command to do a lot of things, ip addr show for example shows the same output that ifocnfig used to. | 23:43 |
| Guest17 | Yes I know | 23:43 |
| Bashing-om | mose/mode* | 23:43 |
| Guest17 | but it doesn't help me | 23:44 |
| Guest17 | how can I fix Grub on my system so I can use Ubuntu? | 23:44 |
| speeder39_ | Hello | 23:44 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, yea the -2 is: (kernel: brcmfmac 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for brcm/brcmfmac4366c-pcie.clm_blob failed with error -2) | 23:45 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: so it looks like the named file cannot be read at the point the firmware loader is asked to load it. You can use "modinfo <modname>" to discover the firmware files it might ask for | 23:45 |
| Guest17 | I have an encrypted root. I opened it with cryptsetup. I then run lvscan. I can mount my root. I then mount EFI partition. I then create the dev devices. I then chroot. | 23:45 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: use "modinfo -F firmware brcmfmac " | 23:46 |
| Guest17 | But when I run the commands to manually reinstall grub, it fails | 23:46 |
| TJ- | Guest17: what you've described so far sounds correct so we'd need more info, have you used in the chroot "grub-install -v ..." to get verbose output? always best to capture it to a file, as in "grub-install -v /dev/sda |& tee /tmp/grub-install.log " | 23:47 |
| fling | How do I actually use shiftfs for custom volumes? | 23:48 |
| Guest17 | Let me recreate the situation and do that | 23:48 |
| TJ- | Guest17: also, does the target you're recovering require other file-systems to be mounted. Usually when I enter a chroot the first thing I do is "mount -a" | 23:48 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, brcm/brcmfmac4366c-pcie.bin is in the results. That is the file I created | 23:48 |
| FaTaL_G | and it worked previously. I'm pretty sure I put the right file back there after the upgrade | 23:49 |
| TJ- | Guest17: I generally do: "mkdir /target; mount /dev/mapper/VG-rootfs /target; for n in proc sys dev etc/resolv.conf; do mount --rbind /$n /target/$n; done; chroot /target mount -a; chroot /target grub-install -v |& tee /tmp/grub-install.log " | 23:49 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: but your error has the suffix .clm_blob | 23:50 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: whereas here for that module I only see it listing "brcm/brcmfmac4366c-pcie.bin" | 23:51 |
| Guest17 | What pastebin does this channel use? I can post the output | 23:51 |
| TJ- | Guest17: paste.ubuntu.com ... you know we have the pastebinit tool in Ubuntu's that does it automatically for you? | 23:52 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: did you custom-build that brcnfmac module or is it the 'stock' Ubuntu module? Which kernel version? | 23:52 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, where ehre are you looking? That is the file I created in /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac4366c-pcie.bin (I also created a .txt of it as directed by the forum post I found last time I got it to work) | 23:53 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: you said: | 23:53 |
| TJ- | 00:45 <FaTaL_G> TJ-, yea the -2 is: (kernel: brcmfmac 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for brcm/brcmfmac4366c-pcie.clm_blob failed with error -2) | 23:53 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: note the "brcm/brcmfmac4366c-pcie.clm_blob" << .clm_blob | 23:53 |
| TJ- | FaTaL_G: but I do not see any firmware filenames of that type listed by 'modinfo -F firmware brcmfmac" | 23:54 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, https://askubuntu.com/questions/55868/installing-broadcom-wireless-drivers && https://tabre.com/post/2/ | 23:54 |
| Guest17 | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/tTfS7JQVGV/ Is the output | 23:55 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, modinfo -F yielded: brcm/brcmfmac4366c-pcie.bin | 23:55 |
| Guest17 | This seems to be the error, but I edited the file and put it in there: error: attempt to install to encrypted disk without cryptodisk enabled. Set `GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=1' in file `/etc/default/grub'.. | 23:56 |
| FaTaL_G | (amongst others) | 23:56 |
| Guest17 | CRYPTODISK and LUKS were setup with the Ubuntu installer | 23:57 |
| FaTaL_G | TJ-, it's 11 up from the bottom of the list of 'modinfo -F firmware brcmfmac' | 23:57 |
| TJ- | Guest17: oh, is that all... what that means is the /boot/ directory (that GRUB needs to read at start-up) is inside the LUKS container so you have to tell GRUB to include the crypto modules so it can ask you for the pass-phrase and unlock the device. | 23:59 |
