| Phruis | what is the point of having npm in the repos if you aren't suppose to install npm packages as root? | 00:20 |
|---|---|---|
| vlt | Phruis: To install them as non-root? | 00:21 |
| Phruis | vlt, then install the same package for every project? | 00:21 |
| vlt | Phruis: I’d say yes. Because something something encapsulation. | 00:22 |
| pragmaticenigma | Phruis: are you asking aobut the apt package repos? | 00:24 |
| Phruis | ya | 00:25 |
| Phruis | python has virtual environments | 00:25 |
| pragmaticenigma | Phruis: many pip packages for Python are also available through apt... The understanding that I have, is if the package is in the repo, it's been modified to work within the environment provided by Ubuntu. Though my experience with this is in Python, the python packages are typically ones for connecting to services like MySQL, and other similar servers, where the version provided by Ubuntu may be older than the one supported by | 00:28 |
| pragmaticenigma | the offering from pip | 00:28 |
| Phruis | ahh ya ... need like OS repos and user repos | 00:30 |
| pragmaticenigma | right | 00:30 |

| wad | I'm working on installing Ubuntu 18.04 64-bit on an HP Proliant DL360p that I just picked up. I installed it just fine on a 500GB hard drive, stuck in one of the bays. The install just finished, but it's acting very strange. | 01:10 |
| wad | I can't log in via the GUI. I CTRL-ALT-F2 and log in on the console, and that works. | 01:10 |
| tomreyn | the GUI? you installed on a server. | 01:11 |
| wad | The machine has an IP address on my LAN, I can ping it from another computer. But when I'm logged in, I can't see any network! Don't even have "ifconfig". | 01:11 |
| === XV9 is now known as XV8 | ||
| wad | Yeah, it's a server machine. I installed the desktop edition of Ubuntu. | 01:11 |
| tomreyn | ok, just... why? | 01:11 |
| wad | I'm going to set it up to be a minecraft server. | 01:12 |
| tds | ifconfig is old and deprecated, and you most likely won't have net-tools installed on a fresh box - does `ip a` get you what you want instead? | 01:12 |
| wad | Oh, cool! | 01:12 |
| wad | I'll try that. | 01:12 |
| wad | Nice, that works here. I'll try it on the server in a minute. | 01:12 |
| wad | So, you think I should install the server edition of Ubuntu on that pizzabox machine? | 01:13 |
| tomreyn | i could be wrong on this, but assume a minecraft server won't need a GUI. | 01:13 |
| wad | Naw, it won't need any GUI. | 01:13 |
| wad | I usually just run the server in a screen session. | 01:13 |
| tomreyn | then waste all your resource son java, not on the gui | 01:13 |
| riskymanag3ment | My kids minecraft server doesn't use a GUI. | 01:13 |
| wad | In the past, I've installed server edition on machines intended to only be used as servers, and it didn't go well. | 01:14 |
| wad | I'll try it again, though, I guess. | 01:14 |
| riskymanag3ment | What problems did you have? | 01:14 |
| wad | It was a very long time ago. I memory. | 01:15 |
| wad | Okay, downloaded server image. Writing to USB stick. I'll be back in a bit, and let you know the result. | 01:16 |

| wad | This machine has a regular ethernet port, which I have plugged into my LAN, which has been assigned an ip address by my DHCP server. But the OS can't see it for some reason. | 01:52 |
| lotuspsychje | wad: please dont use this channel to describe the steps you did, instead focus on actual support questions | 01:53 |
| wad | The OS does see two 10-GB ports, with nothing connected to them. | 01:53 |
| wad | Oh, sorry. | 01:53 |
| wad | So, does anyone have ideas for me? Why doesn't Ubuntu see my regular ethernet port? | 01:53 |
| wad | The two 10-GB ports don't take regular patch cables, seems like. They look like some other tech. | 01:54 |
| wad | I took screenshots of all the steps trying to install Ubuntu on it. | 01:54 |
| wad | Here's the error I'm getting: http://wadhome.org/~wad/files/pizza/20190916_195001.jpg | 02:00 |

| leftyfb | wad: can you show what the ports look like? | 02:06 |
| leftyfb | I'm guessing it might be fiberchannel | 02:07 |
| tatertots | wad: are you sure you're not plugged into the iLo | 02:07 |
| leftyfb | copper fiberchannel that is | 02:07 |
| leftyfb | wad: also, try the regular ubuntu server installer, not the live installer | 02:07 |
| tatertots | wad: if you plugged your cable into an iLo and not the nics on a Proliant and didn't have the other nics connected. I would expect you to be in your current circumstance | 02:09 |
| tatertots | wad: lol you bought a used server without the 4x ethernet adapter | 02:12 |
| tatertots | wad: if you don't have the 4x adapter, you're actually plugged into the iLo and you don't have any nics | 02:13 |
| tatertots | wad: you can always purchase the 4x adapter if you need it | 02:14 |
| tatertots | wad: 331FLR adapter | 02:15 |
| tatertots | sucks if you bought that used server but the 331FLR adapter had been pulled prior to sale | 02:16 |

| wad | 331FLR will work? Doesn't look expensive. | 03:27 |
| wad | I don't need 4 ports, though, just one is fine. | 03:27 |
| tatertots | wad: yeah i kinda figured you did something like that | 03:28 |
| tatertots | wad: that HP has quad nics in it's default build configuration | 03:29 |

| tatertots | wad: kinda sucks someone sold it to you without the network adapter | 03:31 |
| wad | It has the 2-port 10GB adapter. | 03:35 |
| wad | Not useful for me, though. :) | 03:35 |

| dongbag | hi, i'm a little confused with /bin/sh - what exactly uses this? if I run a script from a terminal I start using ctrl+alt+t it's using bash | 04:04 |
| dongbag | I'm reading that "the system' uses dash under the hood | 04:04 |
| dongbag | but I'm still a bit confused | 04:05 |
| guiverc | dongbag, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh | 04:06 |
| gebbione | i am getting error - libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by filezilla) - but if i try to sudo apt-get install libc6 i get `libc6 is already the newest version (2.27-3ubuntu1)` :/ | 04:06 |
| EoflaOE | gebbione: What Ubuntu version are you running? | 04:07 |
| gebbione | 18.04 | 04:07 |
| guiverc | gebbione, 18.04 uses the package you mention, https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all&searchon=names&keywords=libc6 the filezilla was probably intended for a later ubuntu release | 04:08 |
| guiverc | (2.28 is cosmic on url; 2.29 disco etc) | 04:08 |
| gebbione | even i try to compile filezilla from source i get all sorts of other errors :/ | 04:08 |
| guiverc | gebbione, why don't you `sudo apt install filezilla` & use 3.28 available for bionic? | 04:09 |
| guiverc | https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all&searchon=names&keywords=filezilla ^ | 04:10 |
| gebbione | so how do i, & use 3.28 available for bionic? | 04:10 |
| guiverc | `sudo apt install filezilla` which you've probably already tried; my guess is you've added non-bionic sources into your mix creating the issue | 04:10 |
| gebbione | well, possible ... i had upgraded ubuntu from 16 at the beginning of the month | 04:11 |
| gebbione | i disabled a bunch of xenial stuff but I have not added any other repositories | 04:12 |
| guiverc | 16.04 would have older sources, I suspect you have something non-Ubuntu that has packaging versions which conflict with official Ubuntu packages. if you `apt-cache policy filezilla` does it come from a Ubuntu source? (don't paste here except via pastebinit please) | 04:13 |
| gebbione | looks legit to me https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wRg9cYKwRH/ | 04:15 |
| gebbione | i just removed it | 04:16 |
| gebbione | so it is not installed but as you can see it is the bionic source in there | 04:16 |
| gebbione | so that wont fix it | 04:17 |
| tomreyn | depends on which version you had installed previously | 04:17 |
| gebbione | which version of what software? i had ubuntu 16.04 and moved to 18.04 . I was using my own compiled filezilla before and I am not also unable to compile from source | 04:20 |
| gebbione | so basically either from source or from the repo i am still stuck with a version that wont work | 04:21 |
| tomreyn | just make sure you remove any *filezilla* packages which don't belong to ubuntu 18.04, then install filezilla using apt. you should no longer get to see the "libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by filezilla)" error message then. | 04:22 |
| papin | Hello. Is this thing on? I am using weechat | 04:24 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: apt list --installed '*filezilla*' should report this http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/HYf6hFnsmQ/ | 04:24 |
| tomreyn | hi papin, we can read you. | 04:24 |
| gebbione | tomreyn, the list is empty | 04:25 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: install filezilla first | 04:26 |
| gebbione | tomreyn, i see the same list but keep getting the `GLIBC_2.28' not found error | 04:27 |
| papin | Is there a channel for kubuntu? | 04:28 |
| tomreyn | !alis | papin | 04:28 |

| gebbione | https://termbin.com/6rsk https://termbin.com/5t73 | 04:32 |
| gebbione | interesting i see those packages might need upgrading? | 04:33 |
| gebbione | i am wondering if it is really needed though to fix this | 04:34 |
| tomreyn | there are 8 pending updates, but i don't think those are the cause of whast you're seeing. | 04:35 |
| gebbione | indeed | 04:35 |
| tomreyn | i suggest you run https://github.com/tomreyn/scripts#foreign_packages and share the output | 04:36 |
| gebbione | https://termbin.com/83p5 | 04:43 |
| tomreyn | what's the output of this? sudo ldconfig --verbose 2>&1 | grep -F libc. | 04:45 |
| gebbione | thre lines showing `libc.so.6 -> libc-2.27.so` | 04:46 |
| gebbione | three | 04:46 |
| funspace | Hi i am not able to load my ubuntu 16.04 desktop with default gui desktop it is shows empty GUI screen | 04:46 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: okay, clean up those packages as reported by foreign_packages, it's a mess. | 04:46 |
| funspace | it was working fine one week back rite away sudden it was happening and i am using Google two factor authenticaton on it as well but i am ble to login ssh but not GUI | 04:47 |
| gebbione | tomreyn, are you referring to the ones in No available version in archive? | 04:47 |
| gebbione | sounds like a lot, any safe way of doing this? | 04:48 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: both sections can be problematic. you have apparently leftover packages from some ppas for different ubuntu distros, as well as packages which don't actually exist in ubuntu | 04:49 |
| tomreyn | and many leftover packages from xenial | 04:49 |
| tomreyn | altogether this can put the apt dependency resolver in a very difficult position | 04:50 |
| gebbione | in some case i can just remove them, like the php5 ones | 04:50 |
| gebbione | but in some cases I feel unsure if they are still providing some useful functionality | 04:50 |
| gebbione | like chrome | 04:51 |
| tomreyn | start with those you don't actually need, apt purge them | 04:51 |
| gebbione | ok i ll give it a try | 04:51 |
| tomreyn | those you think you still need you should find a compatible (to your current ubuntu release) apt source to, then up-/downgrade to that. | 04:51 |
| tomreyn | looks like you even have leftover packages from ubuntu 14.04 | 04:52 |
| gebbione | java6 :/ | 04:53 |
| tomreyn | funspace: i'd like to help but i'm also very tired, so i'll just suggest you provide more details on this system. what may have changed (packages updates, installed new third party software?) and could have caused this? which graphics hardware do you have there? | 04:53 |
| gebbione | mhhh not sure about python, the moment i remove that hell is going to unleash on earth | 04:55 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: python itself is not listed, just apt packages providing outdated python libraries | 04:58 |
| gebbione | tomreyn, for some packages like python is there a way to force their re-install from universal/bionic so it is not outdated? | 04:58 |
| gebbione | rather than just remove it? | 04:58 |
| gebbione | oh ok | 04:58 |
| tomreyn | bionic (18.04) doesn't have libpython3.5*, libpython3.6 and libpython3.7 | 05:00 |
| tomreyn | bionic doesn't have python-pypdf but python-pypdf2, etc. | 05:01 |
| tatertots | release upgrades coming back to haunt lol | 05:01 |
| tomreyn | it helps when people do them as documented. | 05:02 |
| tomreyn | your python-gnupginterface package is a leftover from 12.04 or 14.04 | 05:03 |
| tomreyn | if you recently built software on this system it's likely it got linked against insecure library versions. so be sure to replace those releases you made, if any. | 05:04 |
| funspace | tomreyn, Thanks for your reply mine is default OS came along with dell desktop optifplex | 05:04 |
| tomreyn | funspace: this posts info on your graphics card online so you can share the link with us: lspci -knn | grep -A3 VGA | nc termbin.com 9999 | 05:05 |
| funspace | https://termbin.com/642h | 05:07 |
| tomreyn | !recovery | funspace: okay so just intel graphics. try booting to recovery | 05:09 |
| ubottu | funspace: okay so just intel graphics. try booting to recovery: If your system fails to boot normally, it may be useful to boot it into recovery mode. For instructions, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode | 05:09 |
| tomreyn | just resuming the boot from the recovery menu should at least get you back to a graphical mode. | 05:10 |
| funspace | on recovery mode do i neeed to select any option | 05:11 |
| funspace | tomreyn, ? | 05:11 |
| gebbione | tomreyn, i have pretty much removed all the old stuff apart from gcc as it was giving me some errors https://termbin.com/mjvr | 05:11 |
| tomreyn | funspace: the one where it resumes the boot, i think it's the one on top or bottom | 05:11 |
| funspace | ok | 05:12 |
| gebbione | about the newer than version packages how can i force it to install latest | 05:12 |
| funspace | but as soon as i gnome login it showing default blank GUI screen will it be fix | 05:12 |
| funspace | in such case | 05:12 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: apt install PACKAGENAME=PACKAGEVERSIONINYOURUBUNTURELEASE | 05:13 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: apt policy PACKAGENAME shows which versions are known / default in your ubuntu release, as well as the one you have currently installed (which can be the same) | 05:14 |
| tomreyn | the "Candidate" version is the one you should have installed, and should downgrade to as explained above. | 05:15 |
| funspace | tomreyn, yes resume is top one and i have selected it and it showed login screen and same error repated after login into my user i am not seeing any desktop icons | 05:16 |
| tomreyn | funspace: hmm no recovery won't help there. so you do get a graphical login screen, but a black (?) screen after login? | 05:16 |
| funspace | after login it showed me onlin mouse cursor thats all background is color one only and but no desktop icons | 05:17 |
| funspace | nothing | 05:17 |
| funspace | i am using LightDM | 05:17 |
| tomreyn | !xauthority | funspace | 05:18 |
| ubottu | funspace: If the .Xauthority file in your home directory has the wrong permissions (usually due to misuse of sudo), you may be unable to log in. To fix, change to a virtual terminal with Ctrl-Alt-F3, log in with your normal username and password, run rm ~/.Xauthority* and then reboot. | 05:18 |
| tomreyn | your description sounds like it may be yet another issue, though, and you should maybe post a full system log: journalctl -b | nc termbin.com 9999 | 05:18 |
| funspace | ok done rebooting it now | 05:18 |
| tomreyn | do that after the reboot | 05:19 |
| funspace | sure | 05:19 |
| funspace | https://termbin.com/oz6q4 | 05:20 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: for an example, to downgrade the "lib32stdc++6" package to the proper bionic version, you should: sudo apt install lib32stdc++6=8.3.0-6ubuntu1~18.04.1 | 05:22 |
| gebbione | just install wont do it ... any reason why it should be downgraded? i guess the newer version is not compatible with 18.04 | 05:23 |
| funspace | i tried with different desktop version like xubuntu and kubuntu but no use as soon as i login it is shwoing only mouse cursor thats it | 05:32 |
| tomreyn | gebbione: ubuntu releases come with specific package versions whose dependencies have been tested are known to work fine. what you do is use versions from different ubuntu releases and / or 3rd party repositories. and this needs fixing now | 05:32 |
| funspace | also i have enabled Google two factor authentication could that is conflicting with GUI gnome login? as it is working perfectly on ssh i dint touched it for gnome settings | 05:34 |
| tomreyn | funspace: you can create a new user account and try logging into that: sudo apt adduser USERNAME --gecos '' --disabled password | 05:34 |
| tomreyn | i assume this new user would not have the same issue. | 05:35 |
| funspace | E: Command line option --gecos is not understood in combination with the other options | 05:35 |
| tomreyn | i really need sleep, though, so'm saying goodbye, gebbione and funspace | 05:35 |
| funspace | oh ok | 05:36 |
| funspace | sure take rest | 05:36 |
| funspace | thanks for the help tomreyn | 05:36 |
| tomreyn | yw. and probably missed single quotes from my command line. | 05:36 |
| tomreyn | ttyl | 05:36 |
| tomreyn | actually i had a typo, sorry: sudo apt adduser USERNAME --gecos '' --disabled-password | 05:37 |
| * tomreyn afk | 05:37 | |
| gebbione | tomreyn, bye | 05:37 |
| gebbione | ok packages are clean and i still get a broken filezilla :/ https://termbin.com/34eu# | 05:58 |

| lotuspsychje | afidegnum: so your best bets are, lubuntu, xubuntu ot tweak gnome more | 09:06 |
| lotuspsychje | *or | 09:06 |
| Ascavasaion | afidegnum, I run Lubuntu on a Dual Core laptop and it runs fine. | 09:07 |
| afidegnum | what do i in install in adition to have lxde desktop? or l/xubuntu ? | 09:08 |
| lotuspsychje | afidegnum: you can install lubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop from your current install to test, but we reccomend if you like one, to clean install the flavour of choice | 09:08 |
| lotuspsychje | !flavours | afidegnum see also | 09:09 |
| ubottu | afidegnum see also: Recognized Ubuntu flavors build on Ubuntu and provide a different user experience out of the box. They are supported both in #ubuntu and in their flavor channel. For a list, see https://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu-flavours | 09:09 |
| Seveas | /win 32 | 09:09 |
| afidegnum | which is lighter one? between them? | 09:09 |
| akemlenovo | BTW swap will not really help speed up things, it's here to help if you get low on RAM mainly and it's on the hard drive so it's not that speed. Maybe your system could support another 4GB ram stick inside. | 09:09 |
| lotuspsychje | afidegnum: in normal cases lubuntu is lightest, but i had machines before running smoother on xubuntu | 09:09 |
| afidegnum | ok | 09:10 |
| lotuspsychje | afidegnum: testing it on your personal hardware is reccomended to see | 09:10 |
| akemlenovo | You can also try Cinnamon instead of Gnome. | 09:11 |
| Ascavasaion | afidegnum, I am running Lubuntu on four of my computers here at home, and Xubuntu on another Asus Transformer Book | 09:16 |
| Ascavasaion | For what that info is worth. | 09:17 |
| mfoo | Hi, is there a channel specifically for Landscape? My server is unresponsive and is returning OperationInProgress (has been for about a day). I can see it's writing what looks like binary data to postgres and I can see postgres has ~10 landscape-user queries running ROLLBACK, but otherwise I don't have much information. | 09:27 |
| sarnold | mfoo: I haven't seen one, #ubuntu-server exists but it's kind of hit-or-miss about these things; a bug report or support request would be better, I think | 09:31 |
| afidegnum | ok | 09:31 |
| mfoo | sarnold: thanks | 09:31 |
| lotuspsychje | !landscape | mfoo | 09:34 |
| ubottu | mfoo: Landscape makes the management and monitoring of Ubuntu systems simple and effective by combining world-class support with easy to use online management tools. https://landscape.canonical.com/ | 09:34 |
| raddy | Hello Everybody | 09:36 |
| raddy | I would like to learn kubernetes and Helm charts in Linux | 09:36 |
| raddy | I have a laptop with HyperV support from hardware and software | 09:37 |
| raddy | So, shall I install ubuntu on top of that and explore or better to install directly / | 09:38 |
| sarnold | raddy: excellent question; the ubuntu-on-windows thing is still pretty new. if you like to try and test and fiddle and file bug reports, running it there would be nice :D but if you just want sometihng to work, then installing ubuntu directly would probably be better | 09:40 |
| pomeha | is there a way to figure out reboot reason? | 10:01 |
| elias_a | pomeha: Would this be of any help? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/9819/how-to-find-out-from-the-logs-what-caused-system-shutdown | 10:17 |
| pomeha | elias_a: unfortunately no. I had googled that too. | 10:18 |
| pomeha | there's no /var/log/acpid, there's no /var/log/messages/ and journalctl remembers only 1 (current) boot :/ | 10:19 |
| pomeha | `last -x` seems to be kinda useless | 10:19 |
| tds | did your system cleanly reboot, or just reset out of the blue? | 10:19 |
| tds | and you probably want /var/log/syslog rather than messages | 10:19 |
| natten | Anyone got any suggestions why this request just sits there until it times out when running from google cloud function but not from local? | 10:32 |
| natten | Curl from cloud function -> https://hastebin.com/xijisizono.txt | 10:32 |
| pomeha | tds: that's what I'd like to figure out. And no, syslog is useless :( | 10:32 |
| tds | oh? it should normally be quite obvious in syslog if the machine rebooted cleanly or not | 10:33 |
| TJ- | pomeha: what Ubunty release is it? | 10:33 |
| OerHeks | natten, don't crosspost, you know what -vk does ? | 10:38 |
| natten | OerHeks: Well yeah, verbose and to not verify the ssl connection | 10:39 |
| natten | It doesn't work without them if thats what you're asking | 10:39 |
| natten | Also tried to copy the capath and cacert locally to see if that did anything. Nothing happened | 10:40 |
| natten | Sorry for the crosspost but im at a loss here, and really need to get this working somehow | 10:40 |
| OerHeks | oh oke, that would be my 2nd question | 10:40 |
| OerHeks | i have no clue then :-( | 10:42 |
| tds | natten: most of the times I've seen tls hang after the handshake like that is mtu issues | 10:46 |
| tds | http is often fine, as is ssh until you send a load of text at once and hit the mtu | 10:47 |
| natten | tds: Sounds likely, how would i go about debugging / fixing it? | 10:48 |
| tds | a dump check would be to drop the mtu on your default route | 10:49 |
| natten | tds: not really sure on how to check what the mtu is in the cloud function. Its ubuntu, but ifconfig and ip are not there | 10:52 |
| tds | hmm, missing ip sounds odd | 10:52 |
| tds | can you `dpkg -l iproute2`? | 10:53 |
| natten | i lied ip is not missing, but it returns "EOF on netlink\nDump terminated" | 10:53 |
| natten | when calling ip addr | 10:54 |
| natten | tds: seems like you were correct though. When lowering my mtu to 1400 locally i experience the same behavior | 10:59 |
| natten | Do you know what i can do to fix this? I guess increasing the mtu on the cloud function is difficult | 10:59 |
| tds | can you add iptables rules on this "cloud function"? | 10:59 |
| tds | a typical solution would be to do mss clamping in iptables | 11:00 |
| natten | tds: i highly doubt i can do anything about it if it is not on application level in the cloud function | 11:00 |
| natten | Isn't there anything the api/server can do to "fix" lower mtu's? | 11:02 |

| MrMojit0 | Good morning/afternoon/evening | 11:27 |
| MrMojit0 | I am wondering what I am doing wrong. I am new to Linux world so also for Ubuntu. But I have a two running Ubuntu machines with both Nagios on it and running smoothly. | 11:27 |
| MrMojit0 | But I cannot seem to get e-mails from one machine. So I tried to send a fake e-mail using: /usr/bin/printf "%b" "test" | /usr/bin/mail -s "test subject" user@xyz.com | 11:28 |
| MrMojit0 | But I don´t get any email in my inbox | 11:28 |
| MrMojit0 | So I looked into /usr/bin and I see that on the working machine I have the following installations "mail, Mail, mailq, mailx". | 11:29 |
| MrMojit0 | But on the other machine where the email functionality is not working I only have "mailx" | 11:29 |
| MrMojit0 | Does anyone here can help me to get on the right road? | 11:29 |
| papin | I don't know if `mail` is available on apt repo or not | 11:31 |
| MrMojit0 | How can I verify that? | 11:36 |
| ducasse | MrMojit0: try installing mailutils | 11:36 |
| MrMojit0 | I have installed it with: apt-get install mailutils | 11:37 |
| MrMojit0 | Do I need to look into the help files to send a fake email to see if it is working | 11:39 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 11:40 |
| MrMojit0 | Hi | 11:42 |
| MrMojit0 | @Papin @ducasse, I don have the e-mail working but I did installed mailutils on both machines and on the one it is falling and on the other works. So I guess it has to be something on network level / firewall. | 11:45 |
| MrMojit0 | Thanks for helping me out I got a bit further here :D | 11:45 |
| ducasse | MrMojit0: what does /etc/alternatives/mail point tò? | 11:49 |
| === juboxi is now known as jubo2 | ||
| nate | Figure there may be someone awake now to answer; Anyone know what the switches for booting straight into a non-GUI (console/terminal) mode from grub would be in current ubuntu builds? It used to be something along the lines of `nomodeset splash` but it doesn't seem to work anymore. I tried `nomodeset text` I saw in some posts as well to no avail | 11:49 |
| MrMojit0 | ducasse: I don´t know what to do in: /etc/alternatives/, if I open the mail with nano I get random symbols | 11:51 |
| ducasse | MrMojit0: 'ls -l /etc/alternatives/mail' | 11:52 |
| MrMojit0 | It points to the correct installation: /etc/alternatives/mail -> /usr/bin/mail.mailutils | 11:53 |
| MrMojit0 | As for my other machine it points to: /etc/alternatives/mail -> /usr/bin/bsd-mailx | 11:53 |
| MrMojit0 | The one that works is the bsd-mailx. | 11:53 |
| ducasse | MrMojit0: ok, i'm not sure what to suggest, try asking in #ubuntu-server. you might have to wait a bit for an answer. | 11:58 |
| MrMojit0 | You helped me already more then enough. I will look further my self and find my way through this magical forest. Thanks Cheers! | 11:59 |
| ducasse | MrMojit0: look at the update-altenatives man page | 12:04 |
| TJ- | MrMojit0: sounds like you need to install "bsd-mailx" and ensure it is the choice for "update-alternatives --display mail" | 12:06 |
| MrMojit0 | I can do that no worries let me handle that TJ- | 12:06 |
| MrMojit0 | ducasse I don´t know what update-alternatives man page is, sorry for this question but I don´t know what it is. Still noob with linux | 12:07 |
| TJ- | MrMojit0: on Debian-derived distributions like Ubuntu there is a policy to provide [man]ual pages for every command. The tool to read them is called "man", so "man update-laternatives" will give you an overview and is usually more explanatory than doing, for example, "update-alternatives --help" | 12:10 |
| TJ- | oops, typo, "man update-alternatives" | 12:10 |
| MrMojit0 | I tried to understand but I do not get it. Shall I not first look into the firewall/network | 12:16 |
| rigel_ | in my alsamixer, There is [Master] [Headphone] [Speaker] [PCM]... volume bars. The [Headphone] bar controls both the laptop's external earplugs/headphones and the internal speakers. The [Speaker] label/volume bar does jack. How do I align them properly? | 12:16 |
| rigel_ | This is only a problem because when i unplug the headphones that level gets set to 0 and i have to manually turn it up everytime. | 12:17 |
| BluesKaj | rigel_, after setting your levels in alsamixer run, sudo alsactl store, that should hold the volume settings | 12:19 |
| rigel_ | but the [Speaker] bar should control the internal speakers, that's my real gripe here | 12:20 |
| __monty__ | Hi, I'm trying to install an i386 package (ghc) on a CI ubuntu box that seems to have a ton of held packages. Is there a better way to get this installed than iteratively adding whatever dependency apt-get complains about to the command and rerunning? | 12:21 |
| sarnold | __monty__: dpkg --get-selections should let you find what's held, you can sed those to install or whatever, then feed that back into dpkg --set-selections, then an apt-get install -f will probably upgade everything. but you might want to talk to whoever held all those packages first. | 12:23 |
| __monty__ | sarnold: There's no "hold" in --get-selections output. Only install/deinstall. | 12:24 |
| sarnold | __monty__: hmm. am I misremembering or are there no held packages? :D | 12:24 |
| BluesKaj | rigel_, I don't have speaker vol ctl so I'm not sure how it interacts with other ctls, but make sure the automute ctl is disabled | 12:24 |
| sarnold | I've only done that once or twice in twenty years.. | 12:24 |
| rigel_ | no it's enabled, because when i disable it and plug in the headphones, both the headphones and the speakers play | 12:25 |
| __monty__ | sarnold: I'm not sure. I read the --get-selection advice elsewhere. All I know is apt-get install complains about held packages and --get-selection doesn't actually list any as "hold". | 12:25 |
| sarnold | __monty__: apt also has some repo pinning, that *might* show the same thing, but I've never actually usd pinning, so I'm less sure of what it looks like | 12:27 |
| __monty__ | Well, manually adding packages to the command has gotten me further along. Though now it's failing because dpkg can't start the php 7.3 fpm? | 12:36 |
| __monty__ | I don't think I care about php-fpm in this instance so can I simply remove it before? Or will it be pulled in as a dep anyway? | 12:38 |
| sarnold | that depends entirely upon your local configuration / application | 12:39 |

| codedmart | I see you can order the Dell Precision 5540 with Ubuntu installed. It has a Quadro T1000 nVidia card. Does that mean it is using the propietery drivers probably? Are those very reliable in linux these days? | 14:19 |
| codedmart | Haven't had a nVidia card for years. | 14:19 |
| lotuspsychje | codedmart: the nvidia drivers are decent on ubuntu these days, alot of version choices too | 14:20 |
| lotuspsychje | !nvidia | codedmart see the ppa | 14:20 |
| ubottu | codedmart see the ppa: For nvidia and matrox graphics cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto . For AMD/ATI graphics cards, see « /msg ubottu ati » and « /msg ubottu fglrxmissing » For the latest Nvidia drivers see https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa | 14:20 |
| pragmaticenigma | codedmart: that sounds like a question you would have to ask Dell as far as how they configured the machine | 14:21 |
| codedmart | Right I get that. I assumed that because nouveau doesn't have OpenGL support for those cards yet. | 14:21 |
| sarnold | codedmart: I understand nvidia drops old cards pretty quickly | 14:21 |
| sarnold | codedmart: depending upon the age of the card it may go easier or worse | 14:22 |
| OerHeks | the 430 supports Quadro T1000 and T2000 https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/148435/en-us | 14:22 |
| codedmart | I really want a new thinkpad and am looking at the p1 just cause I want the power. Which also comes with the Quadro T1000. | 14:22 |
| OerHeks | you might want the driver ppa https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa | 14:22 |
| codedmart | sarnold: What is old? I mean after a few years or...? | 14:23 |
| lotuspsychje | codedmart: well lets say graphics cards that go below the 390 version, might have bad luck | 14:24 |
| sarnold | codedmart: no idea :) I don't follow nvidia real close, I just know I've seen a few complaints from people who find their cards are no longer supported before they expected | 14:25 |
| lotuspsychje | codedmart: but then there's always lubuntu/xubuntu | 14:25 |
| codedmart | So anyone have suggestions/recommendations on a thinkpad? Is the p1 a good one? Should I consider something else? I at least need 32gb of ram which cuts out my original thought of x1c. | 14:25 |
| lotuspsychje | codedmart: the hardware choice is really what you need it to be | 14:26 |
| lotuspsychje | codedmart: we can only help with the ubuntu side of things | 14:26 |
| sarnold | yeah :( I really like my x1c but I wish it had 32 or 64 gigs of ecc... | 14:26 |
| codedmart | Well I am always concerned with getting the most compatible laptop for linux as well which is why I ask | 14:27 |
| codedmart | I prefer just the intel gpu, but it is hard to find powerful laptops with just that. | 14:27 |
| lotuspsychje | codedmart: alot of machines will run fine with ubuntu, if you choose latest ryzens there might be some kernel fights.. | 14:28 |
| codedmart | I considered the T460s as well since I can get 32gb of ram. But the CPU is much less then the P1. Just trying to weight everything out. | 14:28 |
| codedmart | OK so even with a Quadro T1000 I should be ok? I mean ideally I could just turn that card off and use the integrated, but I suspect the external will require the nVidia for that. | 14:29 |
| ioria | codedmart, that card is based on the Turing architecture (TU117 chip), so it should be supported by nouveau too | 14:30 |
| rexwin_ | i set the DNS as | 14:30 |
| rexwin_ | nameserver 127.0.0.53 nameserver 52.36.5.248 | 14:30 |
| rexwin_ | in /etc/resolv.conf | 14:30 |
| rexwin_ | but it doesnot resolve using the windows DNS server | 14:31 |
| Sven_vB | can I have a script be triggered each time someone tries to login on text console with a non-existing username, and have that username passed to the script? | 14:31 |
| codedmart | ioria: I was told it was, but without OpenGL. | 14:31 |
| ioria | maybe | 14:31 |
| codedmart | OK thanks for all the info everyone. | 14:31 |
| ioria | codedmart, i suggest the 5.3 kernel in any case | 14:33 |
| TJ- | Sven_vB: yes I think there is a PAM module to do things like that | 14:34 |
| ioria | only Turing TU116 in 5.3... | 14:35 |
| Iarla | I have a laptop running 18.04. It's Core 2 Duo so it can't really handle the desktop. What's an alternative desktop environment I can download that wont interfere too much with the users who stay on Unity/Gnome Shell? | 14:37 |
| tonyt | larla you can try lxde desktop enviroment by doing sudo apt-get get update, sudo apt-get install lxde lxsession | 14:38 |
| tonyt | then reboot the machine and log in with the lxde option | 14:39 |
| codedmart | ioria: Only TU116 in 5.3? Didn't you say Quadro T1000 is TU117? | 14:42 |
| ioria | yep | 14:43 |
| ryuo | Iarla: you can't move to something a few years newer? even an ancient ivy bridge would be a real improvement. | 14:43 |
| rexwin_ | resolve.conf get overwritten. how to avoid that? | 14:44 |
| ryuo | rexwin_: you don't necessarily but you can work with whatever is managing the settings. | 14:45 |
| tds | what's it being overwritten by? most tools that do that will leave a comment at the top of the file | 14:45 |
| rexwin_ | i want to set dns servers and it gets overwritten after 5-10 minutes | 14:45 |
| ryuo | rexwin_: for what matter, what version are you using? | 14:46 |
| ryuo | that* | 14:46 |
| rexwin_ | 18 | 14:46 |
| ryuo | desktop? server? | 14:46 |
| DigbyMW | What name does Ubuntu use for X/X11/X Window System? I have installed xorg and now i just want to run x on it | 14:46 |
| ryuo | DigbyMW: The X server is called X but you don't usually start it that way. | 14:47 |
| ryuo | normally use a display manager or startx for manual starts. | 14:47 |
| DigbyMW | Well, usually i'd do "startx fluxbox" | 14:47 |
| DigbyMW | But for once i'm not using fluxbox and don't know what name to use | 14:48 |
| ryuo | it'll fallback to whatever is defined in your .xinitrc | 14:48 |
| rexwin_ | desktop | 14:48 |
| ryuo | rexwin_: you're probably using network manager. you can't configure the DNS from there? | 14:49 |
| DigbyMW | Ryuo, is x installed by default with xorg? | 14:49 |
| ryuo | DigbyMW: ... it *should* be. 'X' is the server. you can't start it without it. | 14:50 |
| ryuo | DigbyMW: but you normally use another method to start it. | 14:50 |
| ryuo | e.g., start or a systemd service | 14:50 |
| ryuo | startx | 14:50 |
| DigbyMW | i am aware. this is an unusual usecase | 14:50 |
| TJ- | DigbyMW: usually there's a display manager, and it is controlled via "systemctl start display-manager.service" | 14:50 |
| DigbyMW | i'm using ubuntu server, so no display manager or any such thing is installed at the moment | 14:51 |
| DigbyMW | and i don't want to use one | 14:51 |
| BluesKaj | rexwin_, in systemd the dns settings can be setup in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf | 14:51 |
| tds | on most ubuntu desktop installs resolved has its config pushed to it from network-manager over dbus - so do what ryuo said :) | 14:52 |
| DigbyMW | just to be clear, i'm talking about trying to run the x window system, the window manager traditionally provided with x server. i have always been able to do this with fluxbox, openbox etc. i'm just not sure what the package for x window system is called | 14:53 |
| Sven_vB | or can I bind scripts to function keys in the text console login prompt? currently F1 just prints ^[[[A, I'm sure pretty much no-one uses that as part of their username. would be much more useful if that ran my script. | 14:53 |
| DigbyMW | startx just goes to black and then brings me back to my tty so it isn't defaulting to x window system if it *is* installed | 14:54 |
| Iarla | ryuo: not in this case, no. I know there are smaller-footprint desktops, just not sure how theyl'l affect the Unity user. | 14:56 |

| shreds | Hi! I'm using uswsusp to hibernate my XPS laptop. But for the past weeks, it hibernates without actually shutting down so I need to manually reboot my laptop and lose everything that was supposed to be "saved". I noticed I'm all over the place trying to reconfigure uswsusp properly, do I really need pm-utils for this? I noticed I can trigger hibernation via systemd, pm-utils, s2disk, etc. What is really THE tool I need? | 15:36 |
| shreds | thx | 15:36 |
| shreds | I tried setting hibernate_mode to shutdown, also set /sys/power/disk to [shutdown] I noticed it always sets itself back to [platform] could that be part of my problem? | 15:38 |
| tomreyn | you should mention which ubuntu and kernel version you're on, whether there are related logs (and if so, share them). | 15:42 |
| shreds | good idea! I'm currently on Ubuntu 19.04 with Kernel 5.3.0 but the problem has been happening for the past month or so and back then I was on Ubuntu 18.10 with kernel 5.1.* and 5.2.* | 15:45 |
| shreds | that's the damn thing, there's no s2disk logs at all, I can't see anything in syslog/dmesg/pm2-suspend says everything is okay, I cannot find any logs or erroneous messages to get a hint from :( | 15:46 |
| tomreyn | https://askubuntu.com/questions/16239/how-to-debug-suspend | 15:49 |
| tomreyn | i know hibernation (to disk) is not suspend (to ram), but debugging should be similar | 15:49 |
| tomreyn | also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend | 15:50 |
| shreds | I'll check these out thanks! @tomreyn | 15:52 |
| tomreyn | also consider setting up a serial console (if that's possible on this system, probably not on a laptop) to see late and early kernel output which cannot be logged to disk (yet during early boot, or no more during suspend) | 15:55 |
| tomreyn | shreds: the first think you shouldprobably do, though, is to ensure you have the latest 'bios' installed, and to inspect your system logs, looking for (not only, but especially) acpi issues during boot. | 15:57 |
| tomreyn | https://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html may help you work around a buggy / windows version centric acpi impementation of your mainboard firmware. | 15:59 |
| shreds | @tomreyn I'll see what I can do to debug this as best as I can. I'm fairly new to that kind of kernel level debugging but I want to learn more about it so I can debug these kind of issues in the future. About the bios, that's what I suspect to be honest, I did a bios upgrade not long ago and I don't know if I'm just crazy but it seems to stem from that upgrade :-/ | 16:00 |
| shreds | I'll keep that close, thanks a lot, that's a good beginning. At least if I can debug it myself I'd be very happy hehe | 16:00 |
| tomreyn | shreds: you can post journalctl -b | nc termbin.com 9999 if you like, and (while i'm not really qualified either), i'll be happy to put a second pair of eyes on those logs. | 16:02 |
| shreds | @tomreyn I have nothing to lose so here it is: https://termbin.com/yuym hehe xD thx a lot for your help I appreciate | 16:06 |
| Lutinmalin | Hi, can anyone help a noob with a lxqt-powermanagement issue? My battery is not detected, but seen by lshw | 16:06 |
| Lutinmalin | I tried some acpi_osi fix script but that didn't solve the issue | 16:08 |
| === gry_ is now known as gry | ||
| lotuspsychje | Lutinmalin: for acpi related issues, you can also try to update bios to latest, some cases can solve aswell | 16:15 |
| Lutinmalin | lotuspsychje: thx, will look into that | 16:16 |
| lotuspsychje | Lutinmalin: the fwupdate project has also some recent updates, you might wanna check that first on your own system to update bios | 16:17 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, you can install conky to test if it' s an acpi issue or a lxqt issue | 16:21 |
| Lutinmalin | acpi command doesn't show any battery | 16:21 |
| tomreyn | shreds: sorry, been afk for a bit, looking now | 16:22 |
| Lutinmalin | only lshw does ioria | 16:22 |
| shreds | tomreyn: np :P | 16:23 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, upower -i `upower -e | grep 'BAT'` | 16:24 |
| Lutinmalin | no, upower neither :/ ioria | 16:25 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, you mean command not found or blank output ? | 16:25 |
| Lutinmalin | blank ioria | 16:25 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, is it plugged ? | 16:26 |
| Lutinmalin | right now, yes, but I tried unplugged too | 16:26 |
| shreds | tomreyn: I noticed something weird. Running s2disk does not the SAME as running `echo disk > /sys/power/state` (this prints PM related messages but still works alright) | 16:26 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, what laptop is that ? | 16:27 |
| Lutinmalin | hp pavillon x2 tablet pc | 16:27 |
| Lutinmalin | I tried that too ioria: http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html | 16:28 |
| Lutinmalin | no luck | 16:28 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, what kernel ? | 16:31 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, uname -r | 16:33 |
| tomreyn | shreds: i think you should try to make systemd's hibernation work, if any. | 16:34 |
| Lutinmalin | ioria: 5.0.0-27-generic | 16:34 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, a bug probably | 16:34 |
| ioria | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upower/+bug/1606159 | 16:34 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1606159 in upower (Ubuntu) "Battery not recognized on HP Pavilion Detachable X2 10-N123NF" [Medium,Confirmed] | 16:34 |
| tomreyn | shreds: i assume video.only_lcd=0 is to overcome a backlight issue? i only see few mentions of it online, and a kernel patch which i assume made it into 4.17 (so you should no longer be affected) | 16:34 |
| Lutinmalin | ah... reported in 2016 :/ | 16:36 |
| Lutinmalin | I'll try a bios update, and if that doesn't help, is there a lightweight distro that might not have this issue ioria ? | 16:37 |
| shreds | tomreyn: yes it was for a backlight issue. I also noticed my /swapfile partition does not have any UUID but for example in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume I have a UUID so maybe a partition misconfiguration? I have a hard time figuring out the difference between systemd hibernation, pm-utils and the rest of the different ways of hibernating. I'd like to keep only one of them and make it work. | 16:37 |
| shreds | What worked before was having uswsusp handle it all with systemd, I had pm-utils installed but I don't believe I used it | 16:37 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, you 're already using lxqt ; you can try lxde .... | 16:38 |
| shreds | FYI I have the same parition UUID in /etc/default/grub and /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume | 16:38 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, less charge, but the issue will be the same | 16:38 |
| tomreyn | shreds: make sure the UUID listed in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume is correct, or that you remove the file, then run sudo update-initreamfs -k all -u | 16:39 |
| Lutinmalin | a pity... okay big thanks anyway ioria | 16:39 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, read this (not sure about the fix btw): https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/Battery-recognition-Linux/td-p/7040710 | 16:39 |
| tomreyn | shreds: it is correct when it points to a swap partition which has this same UUID, is active (swapon), and is at least slightly larger than your installed physical RAM | 16:40 |
| shreds | tomreyn: I'm getting dizzy from going in circles lol sorry about that but I just realized I don't HAVE a partition since I use a file on the disk to hibernate! it's on my main parition in /swapfile. | 16:40 |
| shreds | tomreyn: my /swapfile is about 17GB and my ram is 16GB. swapon still says /swapfile file 17G 0B -2 which seems to be okay | 16:41 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, in few words, he states that it works on Fedora but not on ubuntu | 16:41 |
| Lutinmalin | guess I'll try Fedora then ioria, is that somewhat light? | 16:42 |
| tomreyn | shreds: i guess a swapfile should also work. be sure to remove the incorrect resume configuration then and to update-grub and update-initramfs | 16:42 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, idk fedora, but i guess you can install anothe desktop env on it | 16:42 |
| Lutinmalin | desktop env is gnome kde and the likes? | 16:42 |
| shreds | tomreyn: the UUID I point to is my own linux parition which seems right since the /swapfile is on there | 16:43 |
| tomreyn | shreds: and an offset is given, then i guess it is fine. | 16:43 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, yes, go with lxqt or lxde | 16:43 |
| Lutinmalin | is that something I have to choose before downloading the iso, during install or later? ioria | 16:44 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, as i said, i don't know fwdora; sorry try its channel | 16:44 |
| shreds | tomreyn: resuming always went fine so I guess that part is okay, it's the whole hibernate that won't shutdown thing that messes everything up for me :-/ here's the GRUB line with the offset: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="resume=UUID=cc859e63-da11-476d-b094-62d8a834e851 resume_offset=26736640 video.only_lcd=0" | 16:44 |
| Lutinmalin | understood thanks ioria :) will try bios update first | 16:45 |
| ioria | Lutinmalin, sure, gl | 16:45 |
| shreds | I guess I could get rid of pm-utils altogether since I don't seem to use it at all | 16:45 |
| tomreyn | shreds: it's in universe, so can't be essential, so i guess that'll be fine. | 16:48 |
| tomreyn | the same goes for uswsusp (which provides s2disk) | 16:50 |
| shreds | but to hibernate on disk I read often that I explicitly needed uswsusp otherwise there was no support for on disk hibernation. maybe I just read something outdated though | 16:50 |
| shreds | I'll try to find more about it though, if I can remove pm-utils and uswsusp to keep it as light and simple as possible it'd be great | 16:51 |
| shreds | that's a good first step, I'm trying to remove everything that isn't needed. I will try to do as you said and make the basic systemd hibernation works by itself and go from there trying to debug. I was trying to debug everything at once and got lost but now I should be able to make some progress thanks to you :P @tomreyn | 16:51 |
| marcoagpinto | guys?! What is this on 19.04?: https://i.imgur.com/iWBMdSH.png | 16:51 |
| marcoagpinto | lots of lines of text while booting | 16:52 |
| marcoagpinto | and so far it didn't get to the login screen | 16:52 |
| lordcirth_ | marcoagpinto, that doesn't tell us much. Have you tried recovery mode? Did 19.04 boot on this machine before? | 16:55 |
| Sven_vB | marcoagpinto, it's progress information so you can see what your system is doing. with a bit of experience this can help you estimate how much longer it will need until you can do stuff. | 16:56 |
| lordcirth_ | Yeah, the boot text is normal; and it doesn't tell us what's preventing you from getting a login | 16:56 |
| Sven_vB | marcoagpinto, if you prefer a greeter image, try press F2, that should switch between greeter image and progress info. | 16:57 |
| lordcirth_ | Sven_vB, I think he wants help getting it to finish booting, first... | 16:57 |
| marcoagpinto | yes | 16:58 |
| marcoagpinto | it doesn't show login | 16:58 |
| Sven_vB | marcoagpinto, it might need more time to prepare | 16:58 |
| marcoagpinto | but? it is the first time it happens? | 16:58 |
| Sven_vB | marcoagpinto, what happens usually instead? | 16:58 |
| marcoagpinto | I never seen this text before? | 16:58 |
| lordcirth_ | marcoagpinto, So 19.04 booted normally before? How long ago? | 16:59 |
| marcoagpinto | day 10 | 16:59 |
| willksm | marcoagpinto, try and press F2 | 16:59 |
| lordcirth_ | F2 isn't going to start gdm | 16:59 |
| marcoagpinto | F2 does nothing :(((( | 16:59 |
| lordcirth_ | marcoagpinto, see if you can boot into recovery mode. | 16:59 |
| Sven_vB | marcoagpinto, is the text a problem for you? it's not harmful if that's what you were worried about. especially if most of them are green and "OK". | 17:00 |
| lordcirth_ | Sven_vB, the problem is, as he said, it's not finishing boot | 17:00 |
| Sven_vB | marcoagpinto, when there's something to worry it will be shown in orange or even red | 17:00 |
| Sven_vB | lordcirth_, that's why I asked what happens usually instead | 17:00 |
| tomreyn | shreds: you may be right when you say some of these utilities are required - i really do not know. if you read up on systemd-special(7) looking for "hibernate" you'll see how systemd instruments it, and can then inspect those targets. | 17:00 |
| marcoagpinto | Buaaaaaaaaaaa | 17:01 |
| tomreyn | ... to see how hibernation actually works. | 17:01 |
| marcoagpinto | Buaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | 17:01 |
| lordcirth_ | marcoagpinto, not helpful. Does recovery mode work? | 17:02 |
| marcoagpinto | well, I still see the text and no login screen... should I poweroff the VM? | 17:03 |
| lordcirth_ | marcoagpinto, yes, reboot it and boot to recovery. | 17:03 |
| marcoagpinto | how do I boot to recovery? | 17:03 |
| Sven_vB | marcoagpinto, so is your problem that it doesn't boot quickly enough? you could SSH in and check the logs | 17:04 |
| marcoagpinto | Sven_vB: I have 19.04 since .04 (April) and it is the first time I see this text | 17:04 |
| marcoagpinto | usually it takes a few seconds to the login screen | 17:04 |
| Sven_vB | it take that as "yes it doesn't boot as quickly as expected" | 17:05 |
| marcoagpinto | yes, it doesn't boot as quickly as usual | 17:05 |
| marcoagpinto | I have updated the two VMs with 18.04 and I didn't see any text on them | 17:06 |
| === Etua_ is now known as Etua | ||
| lordcirth_ | marcoagpinto, at the grub menu, you choose advanced options, then recovery. | 17:10 |
| marcoagpinto | ahhh... let me try | 17:10 |
| marcoagpinto | ohhhh... no GRUB :) I don't know how to make it appear... but in the reboot it said "recovering journal... orphanated something" | 17:12 |
| marcoagpinto | and now it got to the login screen | 17:12 |
| lordcirth_ | marcoagpinto, hmm, so it only happened once? That's interesting. What's the most recent change in /var/log/apt/history.log? | 17:13 |
| tomreyn | shreds: so, upon further inspection it doesn't seem like systemd needs any of these extra utilities to carry out hibernation, it provides its own. see also systemd-hibernate.service(8) | 17:13 |
| marcoagpinto | let me check | 17:13 |
| shreds | @tomreyn really? even for on disk swapfiles? that's interesting, I'll go check these docs out. sorry I got out to grab something to eat hehe | 17:16 |
| marcoagpinto | lordcirth_: https://pastebin.com/4ahGRs72 | 17:18 |
| MibixFox | can someone help me with formatting a drive so I don't lose a bunch of space to reserved root and too many i-nodes | 17:18 |
| tomreyn | shreds: yes. "Note that scripts or binaries dropped in /lib/systemd/system-sleep/ are intended for local use only and should be considered hacks." however, those 'hacks' seem to ususlly work. ;) enojy your food. | 17:18 |
| MibixFox | I used to have a command I used but I cant remember it | 17:18 |
| Sven_vB | MibixFox, tunefs can adjust the number or percentage of reserved blocks | 17:18 |
| Sven_vB | MibixFox, tune2fs | 17:19 |
| lordcirth_ | marcoagpinto, hmm, there was a systemd update on the 11th, that might be related. But if it doesn't happen again, you can probably ignore it. | 17:19 |
| marcoagpinto | ahhhhh | 17:19 |
| marcoagpinto | lordcirth_: thanks :) | 17:19 |
| Sven_vB | MibixFox, also mkfs.ext3 should have an option to do so initially | 17:19 |
| marcoagpinto | what is systemd? | 17:19 |
| marcoagpinto | :) | 17:19 |
| Sven_vB | marcoagpinto, systemd is the services manager that manages what needs to be done to prepare your computer for interactive use. | 17:20 |
| MibixFox | Sven_vB im doing it intially the drive is empty im just not sure on the exact make2fs command | 17:20 |
| shreds | @tomreyn that's very interesting, I'll try to strip all extra tools out and go from there to see what happens. I never took the time to read systemd docs properly, that's a quite good learning experience so far :P | 17:20 |
| Sven_vB | MibixFox, man mkfs.ext2 (or …3 or …4= | 17:21 |
| marcoagpinto | ahhhhhhhh | 17:21 |
| MibixFox | ok one sec let me make the line and you tell me if its right lol | 17:21 |
| Sven_vB | MibixFox, how about you just try it on a small file and check the result? :) | 17:22 |
| Sven_vB | MibixFox, you can use "truncate --size=20M diskfile" to create a 20 MB file named "diskfile", then use that as the target "disk" for mkfs | 17:23 |
| shreds | i.e. s2disk is part of the uswsusp package, s2disk is what seems to be used by my systemd config at the moment: /etc/systemd/system/systemd-hibernate.service.d/override.conf = https://termbin.com/5o49 | 17:23 |
| shreds | so I guess if I get rid of uswsusp I'll need to remove that override.conf but still I don't know if it will still suspend to disk like it used to, I'll have to try it out | 17:24 |
| tomreyn | shreds: it should still be able to do so, if systemd's implementation is sound. i assume /etc/systemd/system/systemd-hibernate.service.d/override.conf exists on your system as a result of installing and enabling uswsusp | 17:29 |
| shreds | @tomreyn: just tried to echo disk > sys state to test hibernation on the kernel level and it did exactly the issue I talk about: everything is suspended but the laptop is still powered on the keyboard lighting works but nothing respond so I need to reboot | 17:30 |
| shreds | I got rid of the override.conf after removing uswuspsp | 17:30 |
| tomreyn | shreds: if "got rid of" == "rm" that's maybe not the right approach. | 17:31 |
| tomreyn | the issue you're describing is most likely a firmware issue, though | 17:32 |
| shreds | I commented the code I side it. But I don’t think I ran the tool to update systemd on an after thought | 17:32 |
| shreds | Yeah sounds like that most definitely | 17:32 |
| MibixFox | Sven_vB I think this is what I want mkfs.ext4 -L R -m 0 -b 4096 -N 1000000 -E lazy_itable_init=0 -V /dev/sdf1 | 17:33 |
| shreds | Really sounds like 1) kernel update messed it up or 2) bios update messed it up | 17:33 |
| MibixFox | label it as R, 0 reserved, 4096 block size, 1 million i-nodes, the fast way, location of device to format | 17:33 |
| tomreyn | shreds: since no bios update is available for this system at this time, you could try to experiment with http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html in the meantime. and try a supported ubuntu kernel, too. | 17:33 |
| Sven_vB | MibixFox, in case you hoped so, I won't go to the hassle of decoding short options. | 17:33 |
| Sven_vB | it's a shame mkfs.ext3 still doesn't have descriptively named long options even in bionic. | 17:35 |
| Sven_vB | I take that back, it was xenial I chacked | 17:36 |
| Sven_vB | *checked | 17:36 |
| shreds | I could try to downgrade kernels to Ubuntu’s last supported version. I’ll check the acpi debug too at this point I really want to find out what’s wrong. It used to work so well a few weeks ago | 17:36 |
| MibixFox | that seems right though | 17:37 |
| MibixFox | i specify the device location at the end like that, correct? | 17:37 |
| tomreyn | !bootlog | shreds: you may also want to set these (and remove 'quiet', add 'nosplash') in /etc/default/grub's GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to get visible output when your system shuts down and boots up. | 17:37 |
| ubottu | shreds: you may also want to set these (and remove 'quiet', add 'nosplash') in /etc/default/grub's GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to get visible output when your system shuts down and boots up.: To get a more verbose log of the boot process, add the following !kernelparm: debug systemd.log_level=info | 17:37 |
| shreds | tomreyn: I already have them removed, I hate splash screens :P I like to see if something goes wrong on boot hehe | 17:39 |
| shreds | I don't have the info kernel param though, that's nice to know! | 17:39 |
| shreds | !kernelparm: debug systemd.log_level=info | 17:39 |
| ubottu | shreds: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 17:39 |
| tomreyn | !kernelparm | 17:40 |
| ubottu | To add a one-time or permanent kernel boot parameter see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters | 17:40 |
| B|ack0p | hi | 17:41 |
| shreds | thx! | 17:41 |
| tomreyn | no need to *downgrade* the kernel, i'm just suggesting you also try the supported one, such as by making sure it's still installed, and choosing to boot it from the grub menu | 17:43 |
| entry_lvl_dev | is there a linux terminal program that can detect an multiple images in one image file and give the ability to crop them. | 17:44 |
| shreds | since I removed uswsusp I see PM: restoring the suspended image instead of s2disk but it still works | 17:44 |
| shreds | it still bugs out from time to time (same issue) but it still fully hibernate and resume half the time | 17:45 |
| entry_lvl_dev | for instance, lets say i have one png file that haves 4 pictures in them... can the program detect those 4 images and then give you the ability to crop all four out? | 17:45 |
| shreds | so only need to go bug hunting now! at least I got rid of extra utilities I didn't needed at all | 17:45 |
| shreds | tomreyn: I'm using ukuu to manage kernel versions, so reinstalling, switching, removing any versions is very easy to do, it's worth a try | 17:46 |
| tomreyn | shreds: i prefer simple shell scripts over somewhat complex third party C code for this task. | 17:47 |
| shreds | one question though: the logs I see when the system is hibernating and resuming: I don't find it in dmesg, etc | 17:47 |
| shreds | oh one thing weird in journal logs: Sep 17 13:45:37 xps kernel: Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 20 on CPU 0. | 17:47 |
| shreds | Sep 17 13:45:37 xps kernel: Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled? | 17:47 |
| shreds | Sep 17 13:45:37 xps kernel: Dazed and confused, but trying to continue | 17:47 |
| tomreyn | !paste | shreds | 17:47 |
| ubottu | shreds: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 17:47 |
| shreds | sorry about that, I meant to paste a link and not the whole thing | 17:47 |
| tomreyn | dmesg only returns the currently running kernels' logs, and only those which fitted its buffer. at some point during shutdown / suspend / hibernation file systems are unmounted, which effectively prevents logs from getting written to disk. | 17:49 |
| tomreyn | so you may get to see more output on screen than end up on logs. | 17:50 |
| shreds | oh that's what I thought, makes sense | 17:50 |
| tomreyn | shreds: whats the context in which this NMI is triggered? is it while entering hibernation? | 17:58 |
| MibixFox | Sven_vB mke2fs -L R -m 0 -t ext4 -b 4096 -N 1000000 -E lazy_itable_init=0 -v /dev/DEVICEADDRESS ended up working :D | 18:00 |
| shreds | @tomreyn it was when booting up between 2 network/wifi related messages, seems unrelated but also another reason to debug for hardware issues like you suggested. I got hibernate to work a few times via echo shutdown > /sys/power/disk & echo disk > /sys/power/state but I'm still unsure what should be the proper command to execute. Does `sudo systemctl hibernate` make the same as manipulating /sys/power/disk & state? I | 18:01 |
| shreds | guess so? | 18:01 |
| shreds | I learnt so much about the kernel and systemd today, I hate to debug such things usually but I'm learning so much that I actually enjoy the ride hehe | 18:01 |
| tomreyn | shreds: "systemctl hibernate" is the command you should run to hibernate on 18.04 LTS and newer. altewrnatively triggering hibernation using the GUI also works, it should run the same command. as the systemd documentation i pointed you to earlier states, you should not write to /sys/power/* directly, but let system handle it. | 18:05 |
| shreds | tomreyn: ok thanks, I'm still going through all the docs I opened earlier, I'll get there eventually hehe I also read there's similar issues for NVMe M.2 PCIe SSD users which I have. Surely is related to hardware but why didn't this happen before? I'm also looking for any devices acting weird i.e. /proc/acpi/wakeup = https://termbin.com/utauu | 18:11 |
| tomreyn | shreds: you mentioned something which sounded like "before" was "before bios upgrade". if you think that's the case, maybe try downgrading the bios and compare (using the identical OS configuration and kernel version). | 18:15 |
| === raj_ is now known as raj | ||
| shreds | @tomreyn good point. so far it seems to work since I got rid of pm-utils/uswsusp. Now I even have better logging in dmesg. I have a hint pointing me hardware is messing with the hibernation: [ 2513.203392] ACPI: Hardware changed while hibernated, success doubtful! it still worked but it's the first time I see this message. Full logs here: https://termbin.com/ygys Getting closer and closer :D | 18:22 |
| tomreyn | shreds: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_make_ACPI_work#ACPI_S4_hardware_signature_mismatch lists a workaround to ignore the hardware signature mismatch. | 18:28 |
| tomreyn | shreds: in case you have a docking station, be sure to test hibernation first with the least complexity, which is without the dock, but with power cable plugged (ie. not running from battery). | 18:30 |
| alexandrdvorkin | hi guys | 18:34 |
| immu | hi | 18:35 |
| alexandrdvorkin | have a question I uninstalled the VB 6.10 and installed 6.0.12 but now my ubuntu installation is taken 6 gb not 3 gb I deleted the previous install of Ubuntu with ram -rf why ? | 18:37 |
| shreds | @tomreyn so far so good, I tested with or without the battery (I don't have a docking station), rebooted to a new session, etc and it works all of the time so far using only systemd directly :D :D :D I don't want to party just yet but hey that's progress! :D thanks a whole lot for your time and patience. I'll be reading the docs anyway just to make sure I'm better next time I need to debug something like that | 18:37 |
| shreds | so far so good without any downgrades whatsoever, let's hope it remains like that. Also it's FASTER than s2disk / uswsusp | 18:37 |
| alexandrdvorkin | is ubuntu install inside the VB6.0.12 ok to take 6Gb ? | 18:39 |
| tomreyn | shreds: you're welcome. looking at you latest log i notice your cpu temperature reaches 97°C, that's too hot. make sure you reduce the temperature soon. | 18:41 |
| tomreyn | (those readings could be wrong, of course, check also on the bios setup in case it lists the values there) | 18:42 |
| lordcirth_ | alexandrdvorkin, not sure I understand your question. You installed virtualbox in Ubuntu, or Ubuntu in virtualbox? | 18:45 |
| alexandrdvorkin | ubuntu in Vb | 18:46 |
| lordcirth_ | alexandrdvorkin, ok, and what exactly is the problem? The virtual disk is growing? | 18:46 |
| alexandrdvorkin | I made 10gb for ubuntu now only 2.6 go is free after I made an install | 18:47 |
| shreds | tomreyn: that's weird since I juggle between 40C-80C when working with the machine. I rarely get to 100C but it's a known issues with XPS 9370 since they're too tiny for their CPUs to properly cool itself :-/ I noticed this too but touching the laptop with my bare hands don't make it seem THAT hot. That's weird, I wonder if these readings are right or not. I'll keep an eye open for this! | 18:48 |
| alexandrdvorkin | and I deleted the previous install of ubuntu that was installed with Vb6.0.10 | 18:48 |
| alexandrdvorkin | so just an install taken up 6gb not 3gb as it says it should | 18:48 |
| CarlFK | I'm trying to make .config/autostart/foo.desktop - it 'works' (the thing runs) but it is ignoring Path=/home/runr/score/ (and yes to Type=Application here is the thing: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/5Y4PGSNmfT/ | 18:49 |
| CarlFK | bash because everyone has it and its shows what the curdir is | 18:49 |
| EriC^^ | CarlFK: are you running it as the user runr? | 18:51 |
| alexandrdvorkin | is there another Ubuntu folder inside the Vb directory that I need to delete | 18:51 |
| CarlFK | EriC^^: 'yes' as in it runs when that user logs in | 18:51 |
| immu | hi EriC^^ | 18:53 |
| EriC^^ | hi immu | 18:53 |
| immu | remember me EriC^^ :) | 18:53 |
| EriC^^ | yeah sure buddy :) | 18:53 |
| immu | can we install KDE in Ubuntu 19.04 along with gnome? | 18:53 |
| immu | side by side | 18:54 |
| lordcirth_ | you can install kubuntu-desktop | 18:54 |
| immu | but won't it mess up gnome? or your default installation? | 18:54 |
| ioria | a bit | 18:54 |
| EriC^^ | it might need some tweaking | 18:55 |
| immu | like?> | 18:55 |
| ioria | immu, your /etc/xdg/autostart will be full of kde processes when you run gnome | 18:55 |
| lordcirth_ | And some of your default applications might change. | 18:56 |
| EriC^^ | not 100% sure but for me lubuntu + unity on 16.04 used to cause lubuntu notification style appearing in unity stuff like that | 18:56 |
| icharlz | Hello all, Ubuntu 18.04 ships with a bug (https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2810) I need to address. Is there a safe upgrade other than the openSSH package for Cosmic? | 18:56 |
| ubottu | bugzilla.mindrot.org bug 2810 in sshd "Broken compatibility with old SSH clients sending 1.99 identification" [Enhancement,Resolved: fixed] | 18:56 |
| immu | can't i containerze the kde install? | 18:57 |
| EriC^^ | alexandrdvorkin: can you reiterate your problem? | 18:57 |
| EriC^^ | immu: i dont think so, you could save the list of everything apt had to pull in and add in case you want to revert later i guess | 18:58 |
| ioria | immu, kde better to run alone in my op (you can always use kvm) | 18:58 |
| immu | ok | 18:58 |
| immu | i will stick with gnome for now :) | 18:59 |
| EriC^^ | or possibly try it in a vm if you have one already, make a snapshot, install kde, then see how it goes | 18:59 |
| avanasear | that's a solid plan, using a vm to find out if you enjoy it first | 18:59 |
| immu | i know kde | 19:01 |
| immu | but i like gnome, before i use to like kde ,but i like the apps that KDE has | 19:01 |
| immu | goodnite foks | 19:04 |

| MibixFox | im confused why my OS on my server has this partition structure.... https://imgur.com/a/Yi2rF2Q | 19:17 |
| MibixFox | can i just resite my file system partition? | 19:17 |
| MibixFox | *resize | 19:17 |
| lordcirth_ | MibixFox, you should be able to, but you should make sure you have backups first. | 19:18 |
| MibixFox | what is that extended partition for? | 19:19 |
| EriC^^ | MibixFox: extended partition is where the logical partitions are | 19:20 |
| tds | MibixFox: what's the output of say `fdisk -l`? that extended partition is probably just a container for logical partitions, to let you go past the 4 partition limit from an mbr partitioned disk | 19:20 |
| EriC^^ | MibixFox: it's not an actual partition that has a filesystem | 19:21 |
| MibixFox | yeah i mean its not actually taking up any space | 19:21 |
| EriC^^ | MibixFox: what are you trying to do? integrate the free space into the OS? | 19:22 |
| MibixFox | https://pastebin.com/6SGF6eW8 | 19:23 |
| MibixFox | yeah that is what i was thinking | 19:23 |
| MibixFox | I am going to migrate this single drive in to two new drives in RAID 1 in a few days though | 19:23 |
| blb4393 | on my new computer the headphone jack plugged not recognized, so I have to switch manually. ubu 18.04. It never happened before so i'm kind of clueless. What could I check first? | 19:25 |
| MibixFox | EriC^^ I may just wait till I get the new drives installed and use Clonezilla to clone this over to the new RAID 1 array then try to expand it there if everything is working | 19:30 |
| MibixFox | easiest backup solution heh | 19:30 |
| bray90820_ | How would I view what samb shares my 18.04 system has | 19:37 |
| ioria | net usershare info | 19:37 |
| bray90820_ | ioria: That returns a blank line | 19:40 |
| ioria | bray90820_, then check your /etc/samba/smb.conf | 19:41 |
| bray90820_ | Aaahhh there it is thanks | 19:42 |
| ioria | ok | 19:42 |
| bray90820_ | Would I remove the entry in that file to remove the share | 19:42 |
| ioria | bray90820_, normally, yes | 19:43 |
| bray90820_ | Ok thanks | 19:43 |
