=== Napsterbater_ is now known as Napsterbater [00:08] hi guys [00:08] o/ [00:09] can anyone tell me is there a virtual Linux software like VMware but free that I can install Ubuntu on MacBook? [00:10] qemu [00:10] VirtualBox [00:10] Use VirtualBox [00:10] it installs on MacBook? === mnemonic is now known as Guest5104 [00:13] VirtualBox installs in Mac OS? [00:13] All the places. [00:13] It runs on the JVM (Java) [00:13] ok but it preserves the Mac OS ? [00:14] you're asking questions about software which runs on OS X. this channel is about ubuntu. you'd better ask in a OS X related support channe / forum. [00:14] Yes [00:14] He wants to run Ubuntu on Mac OSX. Virtualbox. And now we are done [00:14] Success! [00:14] sorry about many questions [00:15] thanks yvyz I’ll give it a try [00:16] what is the link to VirtualBox software? [00:17] Please use google. [00:17] ok will do [00:17] Ttyl [00:20] OK I've got a way to do the ip address and it says Hi it's working. What good open source software is there for designing websites with like with a gui and spits out an html file? [00:24] for a simple static page, no css, libreoffice would do [00:25] wix.com no code knowledge needed [00:25] :) [00:25] probably NOT free though === pikapika_lunar_a is now known as pikapika [00:48] hi guys [00:49] I am having problem with the Virtual box it returns Kernel driver not installed (RCM=-1908) when I try to run Ubuntu [00:55] alexandrdvorkin: based on prior chat i assume this is either an issue with your host OS or the virtualbox installation on your host OS. and i assume the host OS is OS X? [00:55] /join #vbox [00:55] Mac OS Mojave [00:56] we only support virtualbox installed from ubuntu repositories here. and ubuntu (whether or not it's running in a VM, but this issue isn't about that) [00:57] it encountered some error about privacy [00:57] that also doesn't make it an ubuntu issue [00:57] but installed virtual box but it won’t run Ubuntu [00:59] you haven't reached a point where you're running into ubuntu specific issues. if / when you do, you're wrelcome to ask about it here. [00:59] VirtualBox the installation failed [00:59] message appears [01:00] contact software manufacturer [01:00] but it installs [01:03] how do install the Ubuntu iso inside VirtualBox === zbenjamin is now known as Guest19704 === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [02:16] exit [02:26] ok but generally spekaing Ubuntu installed on Virtualbox [02:51] Does a gui exist for strace analyses? [03:40] the last login displayed upon ssh login (Last login: Thu Sep 12 20:38:34 2019) doesn't show access when someone logs in from su, is that working as intended? [03:47] nshire: maybe the #openssh channel can help? [03:48] I'm under the impression that that info would be handled by the OS but I could be wrong [03:49] in this guide, https://gorails.com/setup/ubuntu/18.04 [03:49] if im using zsh, i'm assuming i should replace .bashrc with .zshrc? === richardpeters is now known as denningsrogue [04:10] does it sound reasonable to take ~50 seconds to get to graphical.target on a hard drive? this same drive used to boot much faster [04:11] https://pastebin.com/srdxAVP6 [04:30] nshire: ssd or spinner? === gry_ is now known as gry === MJCDawy is now known as MJCD === MJCD is now known as MJCDawy [06:24] good morning [06:25] i'm having trouble finding how to setup full disk encryption on ubuntu during install.

Is there any recent change with ppas or a problem with their servers? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/vQpjycMvHN/ [07:14] 6 repos failed to update this morning === gry_ is now known as gry [07:31] Anticom: we dont support external ppa's here [07:31] Anticom: instead, we reccomend to keep the official ubuntu repos clean, to avoid dependency issues [07:33] lotuspsychje: i'm only talking about "sudo apt update" [07:34] And to me it seems fishy that 6 external repos at once decided to break down [07:34] Hence i am asking whether some certificate etc. did expire or what ever else might be a plausible cause for that. [07:34] Anticom: you can always ask in #ubuntu-mirrors if your country repos have issues [07:35] Anticom: but we always reccomend first to debug, like external ppa's or own connection [07:35] lotuspsychje: I'm running updates every single day and in 3 years (- blame on me, still on xenial :D -) i never had this issue i've pasted [07:36] Anticom: cannot recolve host, sounds like a network problem to me [07:37] Anticom: did you try a direct connection to your modem/router yet with a cable? [07:39] Hm probably only was a hickup [07:39] now the updates go thorough w/o problems === Surakus is now known as surakus [08:02] ok, my dist-upgrade seems to have failed when I was a sleep... will be hard to recover I think. Not sure to start making a live usb now, or just trying something on the system first [08:02] 14.04 to 16.04 [08:02] grammoboy2: 14.04 is end of life [08:03] lotuspsychje, it still should upgrade not? [08:03] grammoboy2: lts upgrading from and end of life version can be tricky and can result into unwanted behaviour and security risks [08:03] grammoboy2: its reccomended to clean install 16.04 [08:04] lotuspsychje, I hope I still get access to the encrypted home partition then [08:04] ouch [08:05] can I install 18.04 and use the encrypted home partion of 14.04 as /home? [08:06] 18.04 might be wiser then 16.04 [08:07] grammoboy2: the ubuntu setup usually gives the option to keep/preserve the /home but im not the lvm exterm myself, so not sure about that [08:09] lotuspsychje, that wouldn't be a problem, the problem is that it is encrypted I think [08:10] or say I can imagine [08:12] might have to decrypt it first if that's possible [08:53] hi [08:58] welcome Funkmeldekopf [08:58] hi [08:58] how can we help you Funkmeldekopf ? [09:01] no help thanks my laptop work fine with 18. I look around :-) [09:01] Ok, so I need help [09:01] Json007: start with a question === peter-bittner1 is now known as peter-bittner [09:02] I've installed Ubuntu to Windows 10, WSL, but it seems bash can't find stuff. I get this [hold, gotta c+p] [09:03] !ubuwin | Json007 [09:03] Json007: Windows 10 has a feature called Windows Subsystem for Linux, which allows it to run Ubuntu (and other Linux distro) userspace programs without porting/recompliation.

It is changed during the years? [09:25] let's make a 16.04 live usb [09:41] grammoboy2: ecryptfs is considered legacy file system encryption, since it uses encryption which is now considered weak (as well as for some architectual shortcomings, i assume). [09:43] grammoboy2: there are file systems which natively support encryption, including an early implementation (may not be considered ready for production use, yet) in ext4. [09:43] grammoboy2: in the meantime, and beyond that, there is also dmcrypt-luks [09:45] for 18.04, if you would like to continue using ext4, i suggest you backup your data and reinstall choosing the dmcrypt-luks (encryption + LVM) option during installation. [09:45] *if you would like to continue using ext4 and would also like to have encryption (ext4 by itself is fine). === BrianG61UK_ is now known as BrianG61UK [10:26] is a encryption key for a ubuntu /home direction, 64 characters? [10:33] i am unable to understand this question. [10:53] grammoboy2, https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/39306/how-secure-is-ubuntus-default-full-disk-encryption [10:56] trying to get the dist upgrade going via chroot. At least it's setting up packages again, so there is hope [11:05] shoot, no space left message [11:06] I'm in chroot, dist upgrade in progress, what's wise? [11:06] how to create space? [11:09] grammoboy2: another shell on host, remove unwanted/cached large users of space, expand file-system if possible, or if theres some other file-system with space on it bind-mount it into the chroot [11:11] TJ-, so another terminal on the ubuntu live cd, chroot sda1 in that shell the same way as the other? (need it a different mnt point?) [11:11] TJ-, expanding is not possible I think [11:12] I can't run aptitude clean or so in the chroot? [11:12] grammoboy2: in which case stop and think; sounds like you don't have many options right now... I only just came into channel so not aware of what scenario you're trying to fixc [11:13] how do I make space during a dist upgrade, running chroot [11:13] from a live usb [11:13] Hi all [11:13] gpart should help [11:13] hi BluesKaj [11:14] Hi immu [11:14] how are you BluesKaj how is kubuntu doing? [11:15] immu, kubuntu is doing well...running Eoan 19.10 [11:15] oke [11:15] whats your exprience running KDE-Neon [11:15] <__Milencho> Hi guys, could you please help me, i'm trying to change the default SSH port from 22 to 22222 for example, i've change the Port conf in /etc/ssh/sshd_config [11:15] grammoboy2: if the root file-system has run out of space then you need to investigate options to move 'stuff' off it temporarily or 'loan' it some space from a USB Flash device with a bind mount whilst it runs [11:16] <__Milencho> but on every restart the default 22 port is applied by default [11:17] BluesKaj, opinion running KDE Neon? [11:18] <__Milencho> so any suggestions ? [11:19] immu, I tried neon on my laptop, and had to use nomodeset on the first boot and it went downhill from there :/ [11:19] TJ-, I cant do a apt clean? [11:21] BluesKaj,umm which GPU? [11:21] grammoboy2: surely, but dist-upgrade is then going to refetch packages into /var/cache/apt/ again so it can install them. "apt clean" removes package files from that location [11:22] immu, Intel UHD Graphics 630 driver: i915 [11:22] TJ-, but maybe it needs less now? [11:22] TJ-, then at the start of the dist upgrade [11:23] oke [11:23] grammoboy2: it may help *if* most of the space used in the cache was for the 'old' release's packages, not the 'new' [11:23] BluesKaj, but if you had a chance would you move to KDENeon? [11:24] immu, not yet [11:26] immu, I'm a kubuntu tester, so I'm sticking with kubuntu...not a distro hopper anyway [11:26] TJ-, at least it's setting up software again [11:27] and it stops disk full hmm [11:28] it says it used 81% of sda1 [11:29] immu, KDE-Neon might work for you since I don't know what hardware you have. Your experience with it could be totally different. [11:29] grammoboy2: "it" is? what does "df -h" and "df -i" report for space and inode usage, respectively? [11:29] i have hybrid GPU intel and Nvidia? [11:30] ahh Optimus [11:30] what is the default IRC chat app in ubuntu nowadays? [11:31] <__Milencho> anyone to help for ubuntu sshd? [11:32] immu, I have no idea about Optimus on Neon [11:32] i will have to try it then [11:32] grammoboy2: I use hexchat, it's an irc client written in gtk, so it themes nicely with whatever theme you use [11:33] sonOfRa, looking for something in the live usb [11:33] Might not have one preinstalled at all [11:33] grammoboy2: there is no default app. Feel free to search for one and install it [11:33] If you created a stick with a data partition, you can always install it in the live system [11:34] immu, why not ask about HW drivers in the #kde-neon chat first [11:35] BluesKaj, sure let me do that [11:36] TJ-, df -h says 81%, df -i 100% [11:37] grammoboy2: aha, so the file-system has run out of inodes... that is likely due to an extraordinary number of small files (<=4096 bytes) [11:37] TJ-, or old kernels? [11:37] grammoboy2: no, inodes is about the number of file entries [11:38] grammoboy2: try "sudo du --inodes -d 3 / | sort -n" to get an idea of where they are most [11:38] grammoboy2: actually, add "-x" to the 'du' arguments to stop if crossing file-systems [11:42] TJ-, IIRC that was the problem at start of upgrade too, fixed it with removing old kernels [11:49] grammoboy2: removing old kernels isn't going to free many inodes though [11:49] grammoboy2: there's files in /boot/ and /lib/modules/$VERSION/ [11:53] TJ-, https://pastebin.com/wHBqJmjL [11:56] grammoboy2: wow! no wonder, with all those /usr/src/linux-headers-* [11:56] TJ-, I'm a linux-header collector! :) [11:56] grammoboy2: by default Ubuntu only retains the last 3 kernels so somehow on that system you've managed to disable that! [11:57] grammoboy2: I'd guess you changed something under /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ [11:57] TJ-, for now the question is, how to get rid of it :) [11:58] grammoboy2: get rid of all those header packages? [12:00] grammoboy2: what Ubuntu version is that? those 3.13 are from Xenial 16.04 ? [12:00] !info inux-headers-3.13.0-170 [12:00] Package inux-headers-3.13.0-170 does not exist in bionic [12:00] !info inux-headers-3.13.0-170 xenial [12:01] Package inux-headers-3.13.0-170 does not exist in xenial [12:01] trusty [12:01] ioria: thanks! [12:01] :) [12:01] grammoboy2: are you trying to d-r-u from 14.04 to 16.04 ? [12:02] ioria: running the lastest mainline kernels means I'm out of touch with what the Ubuntu kernel versions are, especially for older releases [12:02] yeah [12:02] TJ-, yes 1404 to 1604 [12:03] TJ-, following this one? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RemoveOldKernels [12:03] TJ-, or is there a better way [12:04] TJ-, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RemoveOldKernels#Safely_Removing_Old_Kernels [12:06] grammoboy2: well you know you won't need those 3.13 headers so you could do something like "apt-get remove 'linux-headers-3.13*' " [12:08] Ok, what am I missing. I'm trying to get a cron job to run by, say, 5 13 * * * /usr/share/script/test.sh. When I check the output of 'date' the timezone, time and date are correct. But when I look in syslog to find out why the cron didn't run, the timestamps are different. [12:10] Hmm, /etc/timezone is set to UTC - is this where the problem is coming in? What's best practice here? === Surakus is now known as surakus [12:18] So I tried to setup firewall-cmd with source address="192.168.102.161/31" and it did not work. Using two separate rules ( .161/32 and .162/32) did. [12:20] NVM. I see what I did wrong [12:24] Changing /etc/timezone through dpkg-reconfigure tzdata and restarting cron seems to have fixed it. [12:27] "pacmd play-sample audio-volume-change bluez…" fails on one of my xenial netbooks. /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/audio-volume-change.oga exists. the sink name was auto-completed, so it should exist. what else could cause "Failed to play sample."? [12:28] regular music playback works on that sink. [12:28] also "pacmd play-file /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/audio-volume-change.oga bluez" works [12:29] +… [12:33] TJ-, can't remove a lot, running in a circle of no space left. So dpkg isnt working [12:39] grammoboy2: do it the raw way to clear space THEN use dpkg. As in "sudo rm -rf /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13* ; sudo apt-get purge 'linux-headers-3.13*' " [12:56] how can I configure Ubuntu xenial so it allows text console login even while systemd is still waiting for NetworkManager and accounts service? [12:58] i guess when account service not ready, you cannot? [13:00] can I make it so root is allowed to login with password until account service is ready? [13:02] "The accountsservice project provides a set of D-Bus interfaces for querying and manipulating user account information …" sounds like it's just sugar on top of "… based on the useradd, usermod and userdel commands." [13:02] so I guess even without that login should work. [13:10] TJ-, apt has done his work. Anything I need to do, to make the chance of a successful reboot higher? === genii_ is now known as genii [13:19] grammoboy2: ensure in the chroot that "update-grub" is successful, possibly do an "update-initramfs -u -k all" too [13:31] I have connected a new monitor to my ubuntu 18.04 which can go up to 4K resolution [13:32] however, I cannot increase to resolution higher then 1920x1200 in the settings [13:32] how can I increase it to 4k? [13:32] I have an nvidia quadro 4600 [13:32] zen_coder, what kind of display cable do you use? maybe it cannot go fast enough. [13:32] zen_coder: Does your graphics card support 4K display? [13:32] Sven_vB +1, hdmi is not always enough [13:34] I have display port [13:35] zen_coder: What graphics card are you using in your machine, and do you know if it supports 4K? [13:36] I just put in glxinfo [13:36] is this the right way to check? [13:37] Hi guys, I've issue installing python-boto on bionic: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/xbCyzrZW2K/. Is it an ubuntu bug I should report ? Any workaround ? [13:37] zen_coder, I'd try lspci [13:38] upgraded 1404 -> 1604 doesn't get me to the login screen [13:39] mounted /home [13:39] quadro 4600 specs say it is dvi/vga only, and Max External Resolution3840 x 2400 [13:39] a start job is running for dev-disk... [13:40] why is a start job running for Light Display Manager even though I put a symlink /etc/systemd/system/lightdm.service -> /dev/null just before I booted from that disk? [13:40] Then a recovery menu [13:40] via recovery mode [13:41] which is hard to control, cant select option really [13:42] grammoboy2, what makes it hard to control? are progress messages printed over the menu? [13:43] Sven_vB, yes [13:43] Sven_vB: `03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP102GL [Quadro P6000] (rev a1)` [13:43] yeah systemd isn't very smart about letting users fix broken systemds, sadly [13:44] 7680 x 4320 @ 30 Hz [13:44] should be enough I guess [13:44] zen_coder, so that's what your Ubuntu thinks you have. does it match what you really have? [13:44] ubuntu thinks? [13:44] I have ubuntu 18.04 [13:44] yeah P6000 seems to differ from 4600 you mentioned [13:45] no I meant whether Ubuntu identified the hardware correctly. :) [13:45] Quadro P6000 should work fully with the 384 driver and up https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/123215/en-us [13:45] Sven_vB: that was wrong, the openGL module was 4.60 [13:45] try reinstalling the drivers, sometimes that helps. [13:45] it is also showing 6000 [13:45] ok [13:45] so thats the card I have [13:46] OpenGL renderer string: Quadro P6000/PCIe/SSE2OpenGL core profile version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 410.72 [13:48] zen_coder, how about the machine, does it use PCIe 3.0 ? [13:49] how can I check? [13:49] OerHeks ? [13:49] see the vendor, type motherboard [13:49] Sven_vB, any fix for such a recovery menu? [13:50] grammoboy2, no sorry I've never used that. [13:51] what does console-setup mean with "framebuffer only" fonts? how do I check whether my console uses a frame buffer? [13:52] Sven_vB: framebuffer is what the TTY consoles use - as in, not the GUI [13:52] thanks! [13:52] is there a way to request MS DOS style 25x80? [13:53] a kernel param for that would be even better [13:54] Sven_vB: usually kernel inherits whatever mode GRUB is set to use. [13:54] yeah GRUB would be the next step to fix [13:54] Sven_vB: as in, /etc/default/grub has GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text [13:55] oh! thanks. I'll try that [13:55] and of course then "update-grub" [13:55] yeah [13:55] can I preview whatever I just did in console-setup or do I need to reboot for that? [13:56] reboot is probably best [13:57] well I'm not 100% sure my settings are an improvement [13:57] OerHeks: Can I not check it through ubuntu? [13:59] oh ok I discovered that changing fonts between "Fixed" and "VGA" is immediately visible, VGA giving bolder font [14:00] I could boot into 1604 using upstart option, no idea what it is [14:00] even more visible when I try the huge variants of VGA :) [14:00] this is pretty unrealistic great [14:05] tomreyn, TJ- thx, I'm in 16.04 at least now [14:10] grammoboy2, when you boot normally, what were the error messages, or what do you get instead of your login screen? [14:12] !info grub-efi-amd64-signed [14:12] Package grub-efi-amd64-signed does not exist in bionic [14:12] !info grub-efi-amd64-signed xenial [14:12] Package grub-efi-amd64-signed does not exist in xenial [14:12] !msgthebot > Sven_vB [14:12] Sven_vB, please see my private message [14:12] right, sorry. [14:21] grah. installed grub-efi-amd64, ran update-grub, and I say it really should have warned me that it's making a GRUB config where "System setup" will be the only menu option. >_> [14:24] Sven_vB, after mounting /home, a start job is running for dev-disk [14:25] Sven_vB, something with the encypted /home? [14:25] Sven_vB, what is upstart? [14:25] Sven_vB, never seen it before [14:25] grammoboy2: Upstart was the Ubuntu service manager before it switched to systemd [14:26] grammoboy2, yeah I guess it's related. Upstard is a deprecated boot mechanism. if you have systemd, better use that. [14:26] grammoboy2: went from sysv-init > upstart > systemd [14:27] grammoboy2, you could try to boot in runlevel 1 and investigate what exactly dev-disk is. [14:27] Sven_vB, how to do runlevel 1 [14:27] grammoboy2, or you could boot into a live session and chroot your broken system. if you're not familiar with this technique, today is a good opportunity to learn it. [14:28] Sven_vB, that's how I fixed the dist upgrade, via grub, using a howto, chroot [14:28] grammoboy2: you're missing the complete path, it'll actually be a systemd mount unit name of the form dev-disk-by\2duuid- [14:28] Sven_vB, err grub=live-usb [14:28] oops, that should be \x2d [14:28] grammoboy2, when you get the boot menu, press arrow key down to disable the countdown, then read below how to edit an entry. select the default boot enty, edit it, look for a line that starts with "linux", edit it, put " 1" (space + runlevel number) at the end, boot it. [14:29] Sven_vB: that's the sysv-init way, now we use systemd.unit=emergency.target [14:30] grammoboy2, nice! then chroot in again and verify all the disks listed in your fstab are accessible. [14:30] Sven_vB, thx, will try later, I'm tired. Working on the fix this whole day. :) [14:30] TJ-, thanks! still I'd rather type less in this case :) [14:30] grammoboy2: you can verify the fstab from chroot [14:30] Sven_vB, and now happy that I've at least my files back [14:30] Sven_vB: it might be ignored was my point :) [14:31] bbl [14:31] TJ-, then systemd should really get an abbreviated switch. [14:31] also, knowing about systemd.unit= means you can substitute "emergency.target" with any systemd unit, e.g. to avoid starting the GUI on a desktop system: systemd.unit=multi-user.target [14:32] or to prevent a unit starting, systemd.mask= [14:32] oh! now *that* is useful! [14:32] in grammoboy2's case .mask= could be used to prevent the dev-disk-??? from being started if its full name is known [14:33] Sven_vB: see "man kernel-command-line" for many other options [14:33] can't it do wildcards or regexp? [14:33] No, but .target units are better since a target controls which group of .unit/mount services are started for it to be reached [14:35] as in systemd.unit=graphical.target means start everything required for the GUI, whereas systemd.unit=multi-user.target won't start anything required for graphical but not required for a regular multi-user environment [14:35] I see, now that I think about it I could have known the kernel docs are just part of what's available. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt [14:36] https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/kernel-command-line.html has the systemd stuff [14:45] is there a chroot helper tool already that, given a block device, mounts it (default mount point: /target), reads the etc/fstab, prepares that and all the usual stuff, then chroots? [14:46] I hope I'm not the first programmer considering making that [14:47] also it should obviously ship on Ubuntu live ISOs [14:49] … or is my idea flawed in some way? [14:50] Sven_vB: no... all you do is "chroot /target mount -a" :) [14:51] Sven_vB: the one thing you have to handle which I'm not aware of a tool that does, is mounting procfs devtmps devpts sysfs inside the chroot [14:51] yeah I just double-checked because I couldn't remember seeing them in my fstab. :) [14:52] I'm trying to use vsftpd. When I enable SSL, it fails with status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT. How can I diagnose the issue? [14:52] you'd probably want to mount dev before trying to mount disks [14:53] Grobo, does vsftp have an error log? [14:53] Sven_vB: I can't seem to find one [14:53] Grobo, check the config for how to enable it [14:53] Grobo, and where it's placed [14:53] Grobo, what guide did you follow? [14:54] https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-vsftpd-to-use-ssl-tls-on-a-centos-vps [14:54] Grobo: first line: Warning: FTP is insecure! Consider using SFTP instead of FTP. [14:54] It works fine until I set: ssl_enable=yes [14:55] Grobo, do you use a centos VPS? [14:56] after "ssl_enable=ye" there are 6 more items to change.. [14:56] Sven_vB: No, I'm not using CentOS but the SSL procedure should be the same [14:56] that guide is pretty much the same as https://websiteforstudents.com/setup-vsftpd-on-ubuntu-16-04-lts-server-with-ssl-tls-certificates/ or better https://vitux.com/install-vsftpd-ftp-server-tls-ubuntu/ [14:57] pastebin your vsftpd.conf ? [14:57] Sven_vB: I just checked and using profiles schroot can be configured (via profile scripts_ to automate such things, but if you're expecting to mount devtpfs sysfs procfs etc. from a live environment with default settings I don't think there is a tool [14:57] TJ-, thanks! I feel a bit better now about making my own. and a bit worse about the state of humanity. [14:59] Sven_vB: there's likely a tool somewhere in the archive that does do it, but I don't see it in coreutils which is where chroot lives [15:00] oh, if I run directly (vsftpd) then it actually gives me an error [15:00] I don't know why they can't have that included with "INVALIDARGUMENT" [15:02] if you enabled vsftpd, systemctl status vsftpd [15:03] * OerHeks waiting for the .conf [15:05] Sovled... it expected a different cert.type. I just had to regenerate the pem. Thanks everyone [15:05] Grobo, good find, have fun! === peter-bittner1 is now known as peter-bittner [15:09] Sven_vB: I think I have (Good) news for you. Ubiquity, the Ubuntu graphical installer, contains /lib/chroot-setup.sh which has functions to do this... and will be available in the live images [15:09] Sven_vB: but not read the code in detail so not sure precisely how you'd call or utilise it [15:10] hi [15:10] to fresh install ubuntu i downloaded 18.04.3 from ubuntu.com and then created usb flash disk with rufus. but when i booted from usb it booted to live ubuntu session without bringing setup menu [15:11] is it new feature or have i done something wrong? [15:12] B|ack0p: were you able to repeat that happening? It could just be there was a key-press pending that immediately selected the option [15:13] TJ- it doesnt ask me to press any key.. i did installed before and it should boot to setup menu directly when i boot from usb [15:13] this happening first time [15:14] are you sure it booted in live session, not your installed ubuntu? [15:14] B|ack0p: if its a UEFI boot the GRUB boot menu should show for a few seconds [15:14] i dont remember.. [15:14] UEFI - MBR [15:14] as i remember [15:14] B|ack0p: if it is BIOS/Legacy boot then it'd use the syslinux loader which handles things differently [15:15] it is old laptop so must be BIOS [15:15] B|ack0p: if its started in the "Try" mode now use a terminal to check which mode it is in [15:15] maybe i created usb wrong [15:15] no never brought me Try or Install menu [15:15] B|ack0p: I cannot see how creating the image could go wrong, in that way [15:15] it directly booted to live session [15:16] i mean maybe i missed UEFI/ BIOS setting in there [15:16] unlikely that ever happens without a menu [15:16] in rufus [15:16] OerHeks it came without menu [15:16] just a line appeared in black screen told something syslinux [15:16] so you are in the installed ubuntu [15:16] B|ack0p: so it'd use syslinux... which initially will wait a few seconds for you to tap a key to choose the language (shows a little keyboard symbol bottom centre of display) otherwise starts the chooser [15:16] OerHeks not installed i am on live session at the moment [15:17] TJ- it was black screen not purple.. after that line linux logo appeared then logged in to live session [15:17] it never asked me to press a key [15:18] let me try again.. [15:18] see ya [15:18] with syslinux you'd see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Full_Disk_Encryption_Howto_2019#Syslinux_.28BIOS_mode.29 [15:19] Sounds like rufus write its own boot-loader [15:20] i heard this claim long time ago, it was just booting into an installed ubuntu [15:20] wow Ubiquity still has no progress on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1063186 [15:20] Launchpad bug 1051935 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Precise) "duplicate for #1063186 Fails with SystemError when too many files are open" [High,Fix released] [15:20] some ask for this feature, boot directly into live, not possible [15:20] Sven_vB: that says "Fix Released" [15:21] oh? I see it's a duplicate now [15:21] OerHeks: from what I see Rufus creates its own boot-loader and entries [15:21] why doesn't the comment thread show when it has become a duplicate? [15:22] also why is the status still "Confirmed" [15:23] why should it? At the very top, under the title, it shows "This bug report is a duplicate of: Bug #1051935: Fails with SystemError when too many files are open." [15:23] bug 1051935 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Precise) "Fails with SystemError when too many files are open" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1051935 [15:25] TJ-, I'm probably just spoiled by Github's better UX. I mean, when you're looking for the latest changes to a bug, it's not intuitive to compare the top section. especially a place in the top section that wasn't there before, so you had no indication there was something on the top that could update. [15:26] I'd disagree... I don't want to have to scroll down a list of comments to find out something like that... but I agree the status should match the duplicate's parent [15:26] how do you use peruse? rght click and open a .zip opens peruse, but there's nothing to read [15:29]
