| CQ | hello, I'm running Disco... how can I switch toteh 5.0 kernel series? | 05:32 |
| CQ | if I just install the 5.0.0-29-generic image, will it keep upgrading from there or will it be set to manually installed? I would want the kernels to keep automatically updating | 05:33 |
| Ben64 | CQ: disco comes with 5.0 | 05:38 |
| CQ | yes, but moving from LTS to Disco still has me at 4.15.0-55-generic | 05:39 |
| CQ | ...so how do I kick it over to the 5 series? | 05:39 |
| Ben64 | nah it doesn't work that way unless something went wrong | 05:39 |
| CQ | well, I did have a mobo failure in the middle of upgrading ; ) | 05:39 |
| Ben64 | what does 'lsb_release -a' say | 05:39 |
| CQ | X, grub and networking are all repaired | 05:39 |
| CQ | Description: Ubuntu 19.04 | 05:40 |
| Ben64 | do you have any bionic sources in your /etc/apt/sources.list still | 05:40 |
| CQ | nope, all disco | 05:41 |
| Ben64 | do a 'sudo apt update' and 'sudo apt full-upgrade' and paste the results on http://paste.ubuntu.com | 05:41 |
| CQ | to get the desktop and dm working I had to --reinstall a bunch of stuff | 05:42 |
| CQ | whats the diff between dist-upgrade and full-upgrade? | 05:42 |
| Ben64 | better name | 05:42 |
| CQ | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 05:42 |
| CQ | ah. or do you want to see the sources? | 05:43 |
| Ben64 | eh couldn't hurt | 05:43 |
| CQ | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/GP5dPk744H/ | 05:43 |
| Ben64 | how about... 'dpkg -l | grep linux-image' | 05:45 |
| CQ | something else I remember now, I was a litle low on space, so I had deinstalled libreoffice and also the latest 4.15 kernel and was running an older 4.15 kernel at upgrade time, not sure if that makes a difference | 05:45 |
| CQ | ii linux-image-4.15.0-55-generic 4.15.0-55.60 amd64 Signed kernel image generic | 05:46 |
| CQ | just the one | 05:46 |
| CQ | I had removed the two others for space reasons before being able to upgrade, I need to make a bigger root partition | 05:46 |
| Ben64 | ok try sudo apt install linux-image-generic | 05:47 |
| CQ | aaah, success! 5.0.0-29 coming in | 05:49 |
| Ben64 | will probably work | 05:49 |
| Ben64 | just checked stuff to be reasonably sure nothing else was too wonky | 05:50 |

| Ben64 | awesome, no problem! | 05:55 |
| CQ | is there a better graphical partition manager then gparted? That doesn't seem to work with ZFS... it only shows the ZFS part, not all of the partitions | 05:56 |
| CQ | else its back to fdisk | 05:56 |

There's a security update today: linux-image-generic/bionic-security,bionic-updates 4.15.0.64.66 amd64 [upgradable from: 4.15.0.62.64] and I am trying to get my head around where the changelog for that is.

| Antoine| | Hello, I'd like to make an offline copy of a website. What tool can I use? | 09:20 |
| ph88^ | Antoine|, httrack | 09:25 |
| sarnold | Antoine|: I've used wget --mirror but that only works for simple things | 09:26 |
| Antoine| | ph88^: That's the one I have been trying to use. I need to log in before I can make a copy but I haven't been able to log in with httrack | 09:26 |
| ph88^ | Antoine|, you can login with a POST request or alternatively import cookies from the browser so you don't have to login | 09:27 |
| ph88^ | you can also try this software https://github.com/pirate/ArchiveBox | 09:28 |
| Antoine| | Ok I'll try to import cookies | 09:28 |
| Antoine| | So I need to figure out how to export them from firefox first then how to import them to httracks | 09:28 |
| martijnv3 | DOMAIN=$1 ROOT=$2 wget -e robots=off --recursive --no-clobber --page-requisites --html-extension --convert-links --restrict-file-names=windows --domains $DOMAIN --no-parent $ROOT | 09:30 |
| ph88^ | Antoine|, there is an extension for firefox that lets you export cookies to a file | 09:30 |
| Antoine| | ph88^: That one? https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/cookie-import-export/ | 09:31 |
| martijnv3 | that command downloads and archives a page nicely in a directory | 09:31 |
| martijnv3 | gets all other resources too | 09:31 |
| martijnv3 | converts the links to point to the local copy | 09:31 |
| martijnv3 | it's great | 09:31 |
| ph88^ | Antoine|, i used this one https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/addon/cookies-txt/ | 09:31 |
| martijnv3 | you can see cookies in devtools of any browser | 09:32 |
| martijnv3 | they keep a table | 09:32 |
| martijnv3 | you copy pasta | 09:32 |
| martijnv3 | no addons required | 09:32 |
| Antoine| | martijnv3: I did ctrl maj c in firefox, I'm under storage, I can see the cookies but couldnt figure out how to copy them | 09:33 |
| Antoine| | martijnv3: In your command, what should I put in $1 and $2? | 09:34 |
| martijnv3 | aha $1 is the domain name of the website you want to copy | 09:36 |
| martijnv3 | so subdomain.mysite.com or something like that, and the crawler will not archive anything outside of that domain | 09:36 |
| martijnv3 | $2 is the link to the page you want to start at | 09:36 |
| Antoine| | Oh ok great | 09:36 |
| Antoine| | What if I want to give it a cookies.txt file? | 09:37 |
| ace_me | I see I have a /usr/bin/postman and I want to uninstall this postman but apt-get uninstall fail also snap remove postman fail. Please help | 09:37 |
| martijnv3 | man wget and look for --load-cookies | 09:37 |
| martijnv3 | you can give it a file | 09:37 |
| Antoine| | ok nice :) | 09:37 |
| martijnv3 | otherwise there is --post-data for providing eventual login information | 09:37 |

| ph88^ | hey guys, i don't get to see the desktop at boot. But then when i go to the console and type "startx" it boots anyway. How can i fix this so it starts immediately ? | 09:43 |
| ace_me | however if I postman and enter on a terminal it starts postman 7 sarnold | 09:44 |
| sarnold | ace_me: did you build it from source? did you install it via python-pip or npm or something similar? | 09:44 |
| ace_me | huhu... not sure ... thought was installed with snap but just removed snap | 09:45 |
| sarnold | if it were snap the path probably would have included /snap/ somewhere in it :) | 09:45 |
| ace_me | there is no way to find what /usr/bin/postman calls ? | 09:46 |

| super_koza | I have absolutely no idea what to do, or what else to check... | 10:39 |

| super_koza | I did that so in case 1 drive fails, I would still have swap on other disk. | 10:45 |
| super_koza | I could have done RAID 1 or 0 on all three swap partitions... | 10:45 |
| super_koza | But other than that, there are no red lines. | 10:46 |
| export | super_koza: uh, if a drive fails will swap be the issue? O.o | 10:46 |
| export | better phrasing, what good will swap be if the hdd fails? | 10:46 |
| super_koza | export: I have a 3 disk RAID 5 setup. So if a drive fails, I have efi and swap partitions on other drives. | 10:47 |
| super_koza | This should keep me going until I get a replacement drive and restore RAID. | 10:47 |
| super_koza | But anyway, I could just delete the swap partitions and use swapfiles... | 10:47 |

| tomreyn | dollarWoman: here you go (took me a while to find it): https://distrotest.net/ | 10:49 |

| super_koza | Yes | 10:55 |
| super_koza | :D | 10:56 |
| export | super_koza: again why? | 10:56 |
| export | why not just install the desktop or install the server, what is the real reason for doing "both" | 10:56 |
| Antoine| | I copied my cookie file off firefox. I run `wget --load-cookies cookies.txt $URL` yet I still see that url as if I wasn't logged in. What am I missing? | 10:57 |
| super_koza | I figured I could use the GUI every now and then. No special reason, other than that. | 10:58 |
| super_koza | Some things I find easier/faster to do with GUI and I have enough resources to run it. | 10:58 |
| export | super_koza: so this is gonna sound crazy... but why not install something like debian? | 10:58 |
| lotuspsychje | export: i dont think suggesting debian fits the #ubuntu way | 10:58 |
| super_koza | What do I gain by installing debian? | 10:58 |
| export | lotuspsychje: installing ubuntu server and then trying to hack together a full desktop is? | 10:59 |
| super_koza | export: Why hacking? | 10:59 |
| export | super_koza: you start with one thing designed as a server and try to make it into a desktop. leaves a very mixed signal... | 11:00 |
| super_koza | The difference between them is the GUI, as the server is intended to run headless. | 11:00 |
| super_koza | Other than that, they are the same. | 11:00 |
| super_koza | When installing debian I would have the same dilemma. | 11:00 |
| export | super_koza: but maybe see what lotuspsychje has to say, i don't really use ubuntu. | 11:00 |
| lotuspsychje | perhaps move this to #ubuntu-discuss | 11:01 |
| lotuspsychje | lets focus on actual ubuntu issues here | 11:01 |

| RonaldsMazitis | I can't upgrade version of wine | 11:11 |
| RonaldsMazitis | on ubuntu 19.04 | 11:11 |
| RonaldsMazitis | using repo from Wine HQ | 11:11 |
| RonaldsMazitis | ubuntu getting less user friendly every day | 11:11 |
| lotuspsychje | RonaldsMazitis: we dont really support external ppa's try to contact the maintainer of the ppa instead | 11:13 |
| RonaldsMazitis | then why version is 3.6 in main repo | 11:13 |
| lotuspsychje | RonaldsMazitis: we advice to install packages from the official ubuntu repos | 11:13 |
| RonaldsMazitis | yeah | 11:13 |
| lotuspsychje | !latest | RonaldsMazitis =why | 11:13 |
| ubottu | RonaldsMazitis =why: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 11:13 |
| RonaldsMazitis | this morning I tried to play game | 11:13 |
| RonaldsMazitis | it started to update | 11:13 |
| RonaldsMazitis | and it asked for dotned 4.6 | 11:13 |
| RonaldsMazitis | which I could not install on wine 3.6 | 11:14 |
| lotuspsychje | RonaldsMazitis: if something doesnt work on ubuntu like its suppose to be, file a !bug please | 11:14 |
| lotuspsychje | RonaldsMazitis: wich game is this? | 11:15 |
| RonaldsMazitis | thug pro | 11:16 |
| RonaldsMazitis | it's a mob | 11:17 |
| RonaldsMazitis | mod | 11:17 |
| geirha | given the earlier error message you posted, it looked like you were trying to install disco packages in bionic | 11:17 |
| RonaldsMazitis | I have 19.04 | 11:18 |
| geirha | ok, other way around then maybe | 11:18 |
| RonaldsMazitis | I did everything as Wine HQ asks | 11:19 |
| RonaldsMazitis | it does not work | 11:19 |
| geirha | though in disco, the wine-development package has version 4.2 of wine | 11:19 |
| geirha | in the official repos, that is | 11:20 |
| RonaldsMazitis | ubuntu gives me 3.6 | 11:21 |
| RonaldsMazitis | I could use it, but I can't get dotnet 4.6 to work | 11:22 |
| geirha | Hm. Could you pastebin the output of this? apt-cache policy wine wine-development | 11:22 |
| RonaldsMazitis | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/NqgZmmxnpt/ | 11:24 |
| geirha | so that suggests you're running ubuntu 18.04 (bionic), not ubuntu 19.04 (disco) | 11:26 |
| RonaldsMazitis | that means upgrade did not upgrade packages | 11:26 |
| RonaldsMazitis | cause I definetely have 19.,04 | 11:26 |
| geirha | lsb_release -sd says 19.04? | 11:27 |
| RonaldsMazitis | oh no | 11:27 |
| RonaldsMazitis | sorry | 11:27 |
| RonaldsMazitis | time is flying | 11:28 |
| geirha | ok, so if you go with a ppa to install wine, make sure you add it for bionic, not disco | 11:28 |
| tomreyn | also make sure you remove this duplicate apt source configuration (in lines 50 and 51 of /etc/apt/sources.list by the time you posted https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/9T7B4CFC8d/#) and either configure the spotify apt source properly (import the signing key) or remove it. | 11:32 |
| tomreyn | RonaldsMazitis: ^ | 11:32 |
| tomreyn | generally, i'd recommend not editing /etc/apt/sources.list at all and making changes only in files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 11:33 |
| multifractal | I added `sudo /usr/local/bin/fusuma` to Startup Applications as was proposed here https://askubuntu.com/questions/1029903/run-fusuma-on-startup but it still won't run on login | 11:34 |
| ioria | multifractal, nevewr used that app; probably the issue is with sudo ; try pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY fusuma (or whatever the binary name is) | 11:37 |
| multifractal | ioria: It's an app for enabling multitouch gestures like a mac. I'll try that. Sudo is necessary when running it manually, otherwise it throws some error about the touchpad not being found. Out of interest, what doesit mean? | 11:39 |
| ioria | multifractal, what does it mean, what ? | 11:40 |
| === sonOfRa is now known as registered-swagg | ||
| === registered-swagg is now known as sonOfRa | ||
| multifractal | i hadn't heard of pkexec | 11:41 |
| ioria | multifractal, pkexec is a way to run gui apps with privileges | 11:41 |
| dollarWoman | thanks tomreyn | 11:43 |
| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 11:47 |
| elias_a | BluesKaj: How is your morning (?) there? | 11:58 |
| BluesKaj | elias_a, fine here. How about yours? | 11:59 |
| elias_a | BluesKaj: Thank you for asking! A lovely autumn day in SW archipelago corner of Finland. :) | 12:02 |
| BluesKaj | elias_a, nice :-) I'm in Northern Ontario, Canada, and it's a lovely summer like morning here . | 12:04 |
| Antoine| | martijnv3: Figured out how to get passed the login form. Your wget command works well, thanks a lot :) | 12:09 |
| BluesKaj | elias_a, check PM | 12:09 |
| MibixFox | if I have Ubuntu loaded in Raid 1 on a Intel Rapid Storage Technology RAID controller is there a way to get RAID alerts in the OS? or email alerts? | 12:16 |
| tomreyn | MibixFox: we don'T recommend fakeraid setups here, but i think intel rst is supported by mdadm | 12:22 |
| MibixFox | so i can create the raid array in the iRST menu at boot and then monitor it in mdadm? | 12:23 |
| tomreyn | this is likely so. but i have no hands on experience with it. | 12:24 |
| MibixFox | ahh ok | 12:24 |
| tomreyn | are you aware of what fakeraid is and why its use is usually discouraged, though? | 12:24 |
| MibixFox | i mean its essentially just software raid pretending to be hardware raid right? | 12:26 |
| tomreyn | it's potentially software assisted firmware raid pretending to be hardware raid, i'd say. | 12:28 |
| tomreyn | and you usually loose all your data if your mainboard breaks | 12:28 |
| tomreyn | (of course, you have backups, since RAID is not backup, but still, error isutations are mor elikely to be fatal than on a software RAID) | 12:29 |
| tomreyn | *situations | 12:30 |
| MibixFox | i mean I have real raid cards for my storage drives I was just looking for a little redundancy on my OS drive | 12:31 |
| MibixFox | and i do take weekly backups too | 12:31 |
| tomreyn | the only situation where i'd not discourage fakeraid are multi boot systems where all systems can use the fake raid. | 12:31 |
| MibixFox | https://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/archive/QPI/5500/X8DTL-3F.cfm | 12:31 |
| MibixFox | that is my mobo | 12:31 |
| MibixFox | i think both that SAS and the SATA controller are fake raid haha | 12:31 |
| MibixFox | and im just using onboard for the OS | 12:32 |
| tomreyn | hmm the sas controller may be real, but it's certainly entry level, and old, and problematic. | 12:34 |
| tomreyn | the linux admin utility for it, lsiutil, was never released under a proper license, thus isn't packaged and hard to find. | 12:36 |
| tomreyn | and they only support <=2 TB storages | 12:37 |
| hodo22 | Hey guys, can u tell me how can i disable scripts to run from runlevel 5? | 12:37 |
| hodo22 | renaming does not works | 12:37 |
| tomreyn | which ubuntu version are you oin, hodo22 ? | 12:37 |
| hodo22 | still loads after reboot | 12:37 |
| hodo22 | 18.04.3 LTs | 12:38 |
| tomreyn | how have you tried to disable it, which script? | 12:38 |
| MibixFox | I think I will be fine with raid 1 on the intel controller and mdadm as long as I take backups as well | 12:38 |
| hodo22 | cd /etc/rc5.d | 12:39 |
| hodo22 | and than renaming to S to K | 12:39 |
| hodo22 | also | 12:39 |
| hodo22 | using update-rc.d | 12:39 |
| tomreyn | you're aware that ubuntu 18.04 uses systemd as a service manager? | 12:39 |
| hodo22 | but after reboot evrything goes same | 12:39 |
| tomreyn | also for the init system | 12:39 |
| tomreyn | the sysv-rc compatibility is just a wrapper, you should manage services via systemd | 12:40 |
| hodo22 | ok thanks i will try so and can i disable | 12:41 |
| hodo22 | systemd and use init scripts? | 12:41 |
| tomreyn | you can't really disable systemd, no. | 12:41 |
| hodo22 | so whats the point of /etc/init... | 12:42 |
| hodo22 | ? | 12:42 |
| pragmaticenigma | hodo22: hodo22: To disable a service from running on boot, "sudo systemctl disable <servicename>" will prevent the service from starting... or perhaps, what specifically are you trying to disable and perhaps we can better help you out | 12:42 |
| hodo22 | or etc/rc5.d? and others? | 12:42 |
| tomreyn | it's for backward compatibility to software which does not understand systemd but understands sysv-rc | 12:43 |
| hodo22 | well i need to speed my boot tiem | 12:44 |
| hodo22 | its too big 45+s | 12:44 |
| tds | systemd is very handy in that case :) - `systemd-analyze critical-chain` may be a useful starting point | 12:44 |
| pragmaticenigma | hodo22: There are tools to help identify what is slowing down boot. A draconian approach of just shutting down services is not recommended as you may disable required services for your system to run | 12:45 |
| hodo22 | thanks guys | 12:48 |
| Antoine| | I am trying to download a website using wget. I want to get all the pages of the form for i in {1950..2019}; do wget example.com/$i/; done. I use the option --convert-links to get relatives link but if I have a link from example.com/1978/ to example.com/1979/, then it won't get converted. How can I do that? | 12:49 |
| Antoine| | I don't want the whole site so I don't want to do wget example.com/ | 12:49 |
| ph88_ | hey guys, i don't get to see the desktop at boot. But then when i go to the console and type "startx" it boots anyway. How can i fix this so it starts immediately ? | 12:50 |
| hodo22 | which runlevel are u in? runlevel 3 or 5? | 12:50 |
| tomreyn | hodo22: runlevels are a legacy concept, replaced by systemd targets | 12:51 |
| hodo22 | eh, alot has changed | 12:51 |
| hodo22 | i am a decade late | 12:52 |
| tds | ph88_: what's the output of `systemctl get-default`? | 12:52 |
| tomreyn | yes, you really should familiarize yourself with systemd | 12:52 |
| hodo22 | iliked inits it was too eazy | 12:52 |
| ph88_ | tds, graphical.target | 12:52 |
| tomreyn | ph88_: which ubuntu flavour are you using? the default ubuntu gnome-desktop? | 12:54 |
| tomreyn | ph88_: with the default login manager, gdm? | 12:54 |
| ph88_ | tomreyn, Lubuntu 18.04 with dist upgrade to Lubuntu 19.04 | 12:54 |
| ph88_ | login manager sddm | 12:54 |
| tomreyn | so sddm doesn't seem to start properly. have you reviewed your log files? | 12:55 |
| ph88_ | i have looked at the Xorg log file ... but i didn't see anything that speaks clearly to me | 12:55 |
| ph88_ | about sddm log file .. i couldn't find it | 12:55 |
| tomreyn | look at journalctl -b | 12:55 |
| tomreyn | when was it last working, what changed in between? | 12:55 |
| ph88_ | tomreyn, this is journalctl -b http://termbin.com/yubw | 12:56 |
| ph88_ | the OS was booting to desktop when it was version 18.04 of Lubuntu. When i dist upgrade to 19.04 it stopped working | 12:57 |
| ph88_ | Also Lubuntu 19.04 fresh installation doesn't work | 12:57 |
| tomreyn | so that's a qemu VM | 12:57 |
| ph88_ | yes | 12:58 |
| ph88_ | same system as 12 hours ago ^^ | 12:58 |
| tomreyn | which graphics driver are you using in the qemu configuration? | 12:58 |
| ph88_ | vmvga, i don't know how to specify that further | 12:59 |
| tomreyn | what'S the host system? | 12:59 |
| ph88_ | Synology DS918+ with DSM 6.2.2 | 13:00 |
| ph88_ | there is also the choice of "vga" and "cirrus" | 13:00 |
| ph88_ | to change graphics driver | 13:00 |
| tomreyn | oh right, that seemed to be an issue yesterday. but then you say graphics can work in general, i.e. you get graphical output with startx, so let's ignore this for now. | 13:00 |
| tomreyn | vga is what current versions of wemu use for linux guests | 13:01 |
| tomreyn | *qemu | 13:01 |
| ph88_ | i can try to switch graphics driver from "vmvga" to "vga" | 13:02 |
| tomreyn | i don't know your host system so i'm not making a recommendation there. | 13:03 |
| tomreyn | also, we onlly support ubuntu here, so let's focus on the guest system again | 13:04 |
| ph88_ | now it boots to login screen and then to desktop .. | 13:04 |
| ph88_ | ok | 13:04 |
| tomreyn | so switching from vmvga to vga made sddm start properly? | 13:04 |
| skylite | how can I run the ubuntu server installer remotely? I started the installer from virtualbox, pressed ctr+alt+f2; apt install openssh-server and I was even able to connect to the machine remotely, but all I hav is a shell. How can I launch the ubuntu installer? | 13:05 |
| ph88_ | tomreyn, yes that's right | 13:05 |
| tomreyn | so you seem to have overcome this issue as logged in your system log now "vmwgfx: probe of 0000:00:02.0 failed with error -38" | 13:05 |
| tomreyn | skylite: /join #ubuntu-server | 13:06 |
| ph88_ | tomreyn, i guess i could leave it just as using the other driver in qemu .. however if i can help upstream by reporting a bug i would like to do it | 13:07 |
| tomreyn | ph88_: i just pointed you to the error message. | 13:08 |
| === gry_ is now known as gry | ||
| ph88_ | tomreyn, yes but the "vmvga" setting worked with Lubuntu 18.04 so the newer version caused a conflict with this driver .. | 13:10 |
| tomreyn | ph88_: that, or the outdated and incomplete virtualization or driver implementation does, yes. | 13:11 |
| ph88_ | should i report it somewhere ? | 13:12 |
| tomreyn | you could check whether there are bug reports against the vmvga driver and this error message on 19.04 on launchpad already | 13:13 |
| tomreyn | s/vmvga/vmwgfx/ | 13:14 |
| hodo22 | do you know how to get rid of .... bytes from the file? i am trying to dd lzma from .Bin file but .lzma file gets broken | 13:14 |
| muhaha | does anyone know how works microk8s ? it does not use dockerd, right? cuz I dont see any containers | 13:15 |
| tomreyn | ph88_: 1832138 sounds similar, but i'm not sure it's the right bug report. it's also marked as solved. | 13:17 |
| Cheez | the actual kubelet etc doesn't usually run in a container (unless you use coreos / container linux or something) but pods running in it wil use whatever container platform you tell it to, usually docker. | 13:17 |
| ph88_ | tomreyn, bionic .. isn't that 18.04 ? it works fine for me there | 13:18 |
| muhaha | Cheez: its using containerd directly, not dockerd | 13:20 |
| tomreyn | ph88_: bionic is 18.04, yes. | 13:20 |
| ph88_ | i could file a new bug for 19.04 and point to 1832138 as reference | 13:21 |
| tomreyn | or to 1037606, yes | 13:24 |
| tomreyn | but i'm not sure anyone will want to try and fix or work around the deficits of this driver in 2019. i think the real issue is your host OS | 13:25 |
| tomreyn | (it is actually well possible this got fixed in a later version of qemu than you're running) | 13:26 |
| ph88_ | is this driver deprecated ? or why don't people want to work on it ? | 13:27 |
| tomreyn | that's a question which is specific to your host Os and the qemu version it runs. neither of which is supported here. | 13:29 |
| ph88_ | qemu version 2.12.1 | 13:32 |
| DeafGoose | Hi all | 13:49 |
| DeafGoose | is anyone here used to Squid? | 13:49 |
| sarnold | maybe... it's probably better to be more specific | 13:50 |
| DeafGoose | I am looking for a solution best described with this flow I drawn: https://ibb.co/KV46B5M would squid be helpful in this scenario? | 13:52 |
| pragmaticenigma | DeafGoose: This channel focuses it's attention on Ubuntu OS... setting up services like that would be better answered by forums dedicated to Squid | 13:52 |
| sarnold | it feels a bit like something a vpn would do a lot better than ssh tunnels | 13:53 |
| DeafGoose | yea just not sure if there is something off the shelf | 13:53 |
| DeafGoose | I did ask on #squid | 13:54 |
| pragmaticenigma | DeafGoose: From the diagram, it almost looks as if you're interested in a reverse proxy. Perhaps investigate that route. Again though, the volunteers here are focused on the Ubuntu OS, this channel is better suited to help with services and applications that are already installed on your machine. | 13:57 |
| DeafGoose | no worries!! I just thought I would ask around, but I appreciate the feedback | 13:57 |

| sarnold | hydrian: anyway yeah you need a rule to allow writing /var/www/pv-prod/ldap/DUMMY | 14:13 |

| B|ack0p | hi | 14:38 |
| dollarWoman | hello | 14:43 |
| dollarWoman | when i install ubuntu, i got this message : I get a message"use parameter "forcepae" to enable at your own risk". | 14:44 |
| dollarWoman | what's wrong? | 14:44 |
| ioria | dollarWoman, wha's your cpu ? | 14:44 |
| dollarWoman | intel duo | 14:45 |
| dollarWoman | ioria, ? | 14:45 |
| EoflaOE | dollarWoman: Does it prevent Ubuntu from booting? | 14:45 |
| dollarWoman | what's wrong? | 14:45 |
| dollarWoman | i have 512 mb ram | 14:45 |
| dollarWoman | this is problem? | 14:46 |
| akem__ | That's not enough RAM for Ubuntu. | 14:46 |
| lordcirth_ | dollarWoman, that's very little. Ubuntu should boot, but it won't be very usable. Perhaps Lubuntu? | 14:46 |
| OerHeks | cpu issue, but you can use forcepae .. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE | 14:46 |
| dollarWoman | xubuntu :) | 14:46 |
| dollarWoman | heh | 14:46 |
| ioria | dollarWoman, we need the exact model | 14:46 |
| OerHeks | lubuntu should do fine | 14:46 |
| dollarWoman | cpu? | 14:47 |
| dollarWoman | ioria, ? | 14:47 |
| ioria | dollarWoman, yes | 14:47 |
| dollarWoman | i can't log in to compter now | 14:47 |
| dollarWoman | when i boot computer, it stop | 14:47 |
| dollarWoman | ubuntu 14 is installed but it stop when i boot | 14:48 |
| dollarWoman | :( | 14:48 |
| OerHeks | 14.04 lts is EOL, dead, use a supported version | 14:48 |
| dollarWoman | so i tried to install xubuntu 18 | 14:49 |
| dollarWoman | but i can't for this message : e"use parameter "forcepae" to enable at your own risk". | 14:49 |
| ioria | dollarWoman, you can safely use that parameter (if it still works) | 14:49 |
| dollarWoman | how? | 14:50 |
| ioria | forcepae -- forcepae | 14:50 |
| dollarWoman | but terminal don't know it | 14:50 |
| ioria | dollarWoman, what ? | 14:50 |
| dollarWoman | wait min | 14:51 |
| dollarWoman | i will try it again | 14:51 |
| dollarWoman | no such a file or directory | 14:52 |
| dollarWoman | ioria, :( | 14:52 |
| EoflaOE | dollarWoman: Not in a terminal, but reboot it, open the Expert options, and use forcepae if available. | 14:52 |
| ioria | dollarWoman, you know has no sense installing a modern desktop ubuntu version on that machine, right ? | 14:52 |
| dollarWoman | expert option? | 14:53 |
| dollarWoman | what is expert option? | 14:53 |
| lordcirth_ | How will PAE help? They don't have more than 4GB of RAM. | 14:53 |
| ioria | it's a cpu thing, not ram | 14:54 |
| hydrian | forcepae is then the kernel doesn't detect PAE but your CPU really has it. | 14:54 |
| dollarWoman | linux must work on old device :( | 14:54 |
| EoflaOE | dollarWoman: This site will probably help you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE | 14:54 |
| ioria | dollarWoman, non-pae dropped with lubuntu 12.04 | 14:55 |
| dollarWoman | ioria, you meant that i must install lubuntu 12.04? | 14:55 |
| ioria | dollarWoman, you could, but don't do it | 14:55 |
| dollarWoman | yeah but i don't know what is expert option? | 14:56 |
| lordcirth_ | dollarWoman, if you have 512MB RAM, your computer is so old that nothing is going to work *well*. | 14:56 |
| hydrian | dollarWoman: I wont even bother with Ubunut. It is way too heavy. Try a current version xbunutu and or lubuntu. If your CPU doesn't have PAE, that going to be a very big issue. | 14:56 |
| dollarWoman | lordcirth_, :( | 14:56 |
| hydrian | What CPU do you have? | 14:56 |
| lordcirth_ | Lubuntu with forcepae will probably work ok. | 14:56 |
| dollarWoman | dual cpu of intel hydrian | 14:56 |
| hydrian | dual cpu or duo-core cpu? | 14:57 |
| akem__ | At some point with old machines, you better stick with the software of that time i think. With very old you have no choice anyway :) | 14:57 |
| dollarWoman | duo-core cpu hydrian | 14:57 |
| dollarWoman | :( | 14:58 |
| dollarWoman | but hardware is new almost because my dad don't use it at all | 14:58 |
| EoflaOE | dollarWoman: OK. You can force PAE by folloeing the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE It should work OK. | 14:59 |
| akem__ | I would try an old knoppix version, or maybe things like puppy linux maybe or slitaz. | 14:59 |
| hydrian | If we had the cpu model, that would be great. | 15:00 |
| dollarWoman | EoflaOE, i can't see screen of ubuntu at all :( | 15:00 |
| dollarWoman | it is not ram problem? | 15:02 |
| trench | model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5870 @ 2.00GHz | 15:03 |
| trench | works fine here | 15:03 |
| trench | dollarWoman: you have the option to add more ram? | 15:04 |

| dollarWoman | this said that it is problem of ram | 15:04 |
| dollarWoman | trench, no ram :( | 15:04 |
| akem__ | trench, How much RAM you got, and which Ubuntu flavor you use? | 15:04 |
| trench | akem__: now I use kali linux | 15:04 |
| lordcirth_ | At the risk of being off-topic, Puppy Linux might work well. | 15:04 |
| trench | with pae | 15:05 |
| trench | 32 bit on this | 15:05 |
| trench | but I run ubuntu or openbsd on most of my things | 15:05 |
| lordcirth_ | dollarWoman, this may be useful: https://docs.lubuntu.net/lubuntu_installation_on_old_computers.html | 15:05 |
| dollarWoman | lubuntu is better than xubuntu? | 15:08 |
| hydrian | They are both low resource ubunut based distros. After that, it is about what UI you like better. | 15:09 |
| dollarWoman | i will install lubuntu instead of xubunt then now | 15:09 |
| dollarWoman | but i m too tired now :( | 15:09 |

| unimatrix9 | whats the most used gui programming lang used for ubuntu desktop ? | 15:12 |
| hydrian | It is sort of standardize per desktop environment you use. | 15:12 |

| sarnold | there's a bunch of information on your process, you can learn a bit more about what it supports | 15:19 |
| dollarWoman | thanks but when it is made? | 15:20 |
| trench | dollarWoman: it says on the page | 15:20 |
| tomreyn | "Launch Date Q1'11" | 15:20 |
| tomreyn | Q1 means 1st quarter, so january to march. | 15:21 |
| dollarWoman | i can't find it | 15:21 |
| sarnold | I don't think they say when it was discontinued, but it's probably a window of two years or so | 15:21 |
| dollarWoman | 2011 ? | 15:21 |
| trench | yes | 15:22 |
| trench | should work fine | 15:22 |
| dollarWoman | thanks | 15:22 |
| dollarWoman | almost 10 years :( | 15:22 |
| sarnold | at least it has AES-NI instructions | 15:23 |
| sarnold | aes is impossible to securely implement in software | 15:23 |
| trench | just download the 32 bit version of the iso and use rufus or https://unetbootin.github.io/ to make the usbdrive bootable | 15:23 |
| mguy | unimatrix9: are you taking a poll? | 15:24 |
| unimatrix9 | not really no , why do you ask ? | 15:24 |
| mguy | unimatrix9: well why did you ask | 15:24 |
| sarnold | that's a 64 bit machine, don't use the 32 bit iso | 15:24 |
| unimatrix9 | i was programming some stuff in guizero, and was asking myself whats "normally" used to program gui for gnome ubuntu desktop | 15:25 |
| OerHeks | rufus can give issues, unetbootin is also depreciated https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 15:26 |
| mguy | unimatrix9: QT or GTK | 15:26 |
| trench | OerHeks: https://docs.lubuntu.net/lubuntu_installation what does it say there? | 15:28 |
| dollarWoman | oh it works | 15:29 |
| dollarWoman | with command : install forcepae -- forcepae | 15:29 |
| dollarWoman | lol | 15:29 |
| dollarWoman | :) | 15:29 |
| lordcirth_ | Great | 15:29 |
| dollarWoman | thanks it is lubuntu | 15:29 |
| dollarWoman | i will be back again when it is completed | 15:30 |
| OerHeks | trench, good spot, still rufus does something weird on their own, but the dd-option works | 15:30 |
| unimatrix9 | ok | 15:30 |
| trench | OerHeks: dollarWoman is in windows not in ubuntu now, so it's even listed on the page you posted :) | 15:33 |
| GinkgoFJG | Hello. I'm running 18.04. Yesterday I applied whatever updates were available and deferred the reboot. At the end of the day, I shut down. This morning when I started up, I couldn't decrypt my disk. I get: "cryptsetup (sda3_crypt): cryptsetup failed, bad password or options?" Is anyone experiencing similar problems after an upgrade? | 15:51 |
| leftyfb | GinkgoFJG: caps lock on? | 15:53 |
| GinkgoFJG | Kinda of hard to validate, since I can't see what I'm typing, but I've tried it both ways, several times. | 15:54 |
| leftyfb | GinkgoFJG: just for fun, boot up a live cd/usb and test typing in the password | 15:55 |
| GinkgoFJG | After a few failures I pressed escape, which I've never bothered to do on this screen, and I get this additional info: | 15:56 |
| GinkgoFJG | A TMP error (2314) occurred attempting the self test. | 15:56 |
| GinkgoFJG | and | 15:56 |
| GinkgoFJG | Warning: failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to device scanning. | 15:56 |
| GinkgoFJG | and Volume group "ubuntu-vg" not found. | 15:56 |
| leftyfb | which means you skipped trying to decrypt your volume, so it's not mounted and doesn't exist | 15:57 |
| leftyfb | GinkgoFJG: there's been no update in the past few days that would affect LUKS encryption | 15:57 |
| GinkgoFJG | btw, was already working on your suggestion re live usb... will be a minute or two | 15:58 |
| trench | GinkgoFJG: did you try a backup kernel? Same thing has happened to me | 16:01 |
| GinkgoFJG | trench: i haven't. never needed to do that before. how would i go about that? | 16:02 |
| ioria | GinkgoFJG, from the Grub screen ->Advanced Options | 16:04 |
| GinkgoFJG | leftyfb: what do you think it means that I can't mount it from Live USB either? | 16:04 |
| ioria | GinkgoFJG, has been decrypted ? | 16:05 |
| GinkgoFJG | that's the problem, ioria, i can't seem to decrypt it. from live USB i opened up the file browser, double-clicked the drive in "other locations," pasted in my password to preclude typos, and no dice | 16:07 |
| ioria | GinkgoFJG, paste sudo parted -l | 16:07 |
| GinkgoFJG | ioria: https://pastebin.com/vRztgquj | 16:10 |
| leftyfb | GinkgoFJG: did you try typing your password into a text editor? | 16:12 |
| GinkgoFJG | Yes, and then I pasted it into the prompt given me by the file manager. | 16:12 |
| ioria | GinkgoFJG, sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda2 sda2_crypt | 16:12 |
| GinkgoFJG | ioria: doesn't seem to have done anything... no password prompt | 16:13 |
| === SimonNL is now known as SimonNL_Afk | ||
| ioria | GinkgoFJG, sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 sda3_crypt | 16:14 |
| GinkgoFJG | Done. Prompts for password. I enter it, and it says, "No key available with this passphrase." | 16:15 |
| ioria | GinkgoFJG, boot an older kernel | 16:16 |

| lotuspsychje | GinkgoFJG: please stick to ubuntu support | 16:22 |
| GinkgoFJG | lotuspsychje: sorry, didn't know that was a channel... for future reference, would this have been the appropriate channel for an upgrade-related issue, since that's what i thought i had here? | 16:23 |
| lotuspsychje | GinkgoFJG: if its an ubuntu support issue, it fits here correct | 16:23 |
| OerHeks | GinkgoFJG, just stick to technical support, and easy on the enter, thanks. | 16:24 |
| OerHeks | i just worried about the alignment:: Warning: The driver descriptor says the physical block size is 2048 bytes, but Linux says it is 512 bytes. | 16:24 |
| leftyfb | GinkgoFJG: lotuspsychje was just referring to your neurologist being offtopic | 16:26 |
| leftyfb | comment^ | 16:26 |
| GinkgoFJG | OerHeks: I guess it has always been like that, re the block size. Should I be concerned? | 16:26 |
| GinkgoFJG | Yes, I see I got a little off-topic with the self-deprecation, there. Thanks to all who have helped me, even if it wasn't technical help that I needed. It has been informative nonetheless. | 16:27 |
| Guest_87 | hi | 16:48 |
| Guest_87 | which i cannto fix due to pkgProblemResolver failed due to possible held back packages | 16:48 |
| Guest_87 | i need help | 16:49 |
| lordcirth_ | Guest_87, I don't understand what you said. What is your first language? There are channels for other languages. | 16:49 |
| Guest_87 | yes, i am sorry | 16:49 |
| Guest_87 | its a bit confusing | 16:49 |
| Guest_87 | somehow apt is broken | 16:50 |
| Guest_87 | telling me that apt_pkg is missing | 16:50 |
| Guest_87 | which i can not install due to apt | 16:50 |
| Guest_87 | telling that i have unresolved dependencies | 16:50 |
| Guest_87 | potentially due to held back packages | 16:50 |
| Guest_87 | i am helping a friend on a german ubuntu system | 16:51 |
| lordcirth_ | Guest_87, please keep things on one line if possible. Have you tried 'apt install -f'? | 16:51 |
| ioria | Guest_87, are you just upgrading your system or are you upgrading to a new release ? | 16:51 |
| B|ack0p | when will be next LTS version released? | 16:52 |
| Guest_87 | i did : result: nterruption due to pkgProblemsresolver::Resolve...could be due to held back packages | 16:52 |
| Guest_87 | coould not correct dependencies | 16:52 |
| Guest_87 | i did upgrade from 12 to 14 | 16:53 |
| Guest_87 | and from 14 to 16 | 16:53 |
| Guest_87 | its a standard dekstop | 16:53 |
| ioria | Guest_87, so the problem is a broken/interrupted upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 ? | 16:54 |
| Guest_87 | not 100% sure | 16:54 |
| Guest_87 | could be the case | 16:54 |
| OerHeks | Blackop in april | 16:55 |

| lordcirth_ | Guest_87, nc termbin.com 9999 < /etc/apt/sources.list | 16:58 |
| OerHeks | upgrading will be fine, prepare a fresh usb with the iso first. | 16:59 |

| Guest_87 | cant locate <> either | 17:00 |
| Guest_87 | not sure why they are not coming up | 17:00 |
| super_koza | Actually the whole system seems too slow. I do not know if this has something to do with my RAID 5 setup. Ubuntu installation is completely new... | 17:01 |

| eHAPPY | Siamaster could be hardware related | 17:19 |
| OerHeks | Siamaster, just be patient? writing an usb can take a wile, check if caps lock is still working. | 17:19 |
| Siamaster | no, it was almost done once. 4 seconds away from finishing and computer hangs | 17:20 |
| Guest_87 | https://pasteboard.co/Iy9W9fh.jpg | 17:20 |
| Siamaster | it a hard drive. not usb | 17:20 |

| Guest_87 | something about subkey | 17:20 |
| ioria | Guest_87, try sudo dpkg --configure -a | 17:20 |
| Siamaster | almost a minute | 17:20 |
| Siamaster | I could hear my computer when into dead mode | 17:21 |
| OerHeks | oh, a minute.. just be patient | 17:21 |
| Guest_87 | it says it stopped because too many erros | 17:21 |
| Siamaster | it progressed to being 4 seconds away from done | 17:21 |
| Siamaster | then I could hear my computer going into dead mode | 17:22 |
| lordcirth_ | Siamaster, the whole computer freezes? Can you open another terminal, run 'dmesg -w' and see if it prints anything when copying? | 17:22 |
| Siamaster | and then I waited for almost a minute | 17:22 |
| Siamaster | no | 17:22 |
| Siamaster | alt F4 not working | 17:22 |

| lordcirth_ | Siamaster, and dmesg didn't print anything when the copy was running? | 17:30 |
| Siamaster | Why would computer become totally unresponsive anyway | 17:30 |

| Guest_87 | i can do that | 17:35 |
| Siamaster | yes. It gave some output | 17:35 |
| Guest_87 | you mean reinstall? | 17:35 |
| lordcirth_ | Siamaster, but does it say it's installed? | 17:35 |

| ioria | Guest_87, your cpu does not matter indeed | 17:38 |
| lordcirth_ | Siamaster, are you plugging this USB into a USB hub, front of the PC, or the back? | 17:39 |
| Siamaster | it's to another HDD | 17:39 |
| Guest_87 | i could format ething and reinstall, but there aare settings on there like email client, skype settings etc etc | 17:39 |

| ioria | Guest_87, 32bit support (on ubuntu) is almost dead | 17:39 |
| Guest_87 | so i should reinstall? | 17:40 |
| ioria | Guest_87, in the worst case, yes | 17:40 |
| lordcirth_ | Siamaster, oh ok. "apt install smartmontools" | 17:40 |
| Guest_87 | do u know how to fix this broken system? | 17:41 |
| lordcirth_ | Siamaster, Then "smartctl -a /dev/sdb | nc termbin.com 9999" (substituting sdb for whatever the drive is you are writing to) | 17:41 |
| Siamaster | what does this do? | 17:42 |
| Guest_87 | how can i resolve these dependcies if apt doesnt work? | 17:42 |
| nshirelaptop | is there a way of setting my login screen background? like the screen behind the password text box, not the lock screen | 17:42 |
| nshirelaptop | I tried opening the "login screen" app but nothing happens after I enter my password | 17:43 |
| lordcirth_ | Siamaster, it asks the hard drive for it's error logs and health info, then pastebins it. | 17:43 |
| Siamaster | cool! https://termbin.com/g6a1 | 17:45 |
| ioria | Guest_87, usually, manually with dpkg | 17:46 |
| Guest_87 | that tells me that there are too many erros | 17:47 |
| Siamaster | So the hard drive is healthy? | 17:51 |
| ioria | Guest_87, press control + shift +u ; then type '01c0' ; you'll get the pipe symbol ; so you can paste sudo apt full-upgrade | termbin.com 9999 | 17:51 |
| Guest_87 | trying .. | 17:56 |
| nshirelaptop | so I was just modifying some stuff in /gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css | 18:03 |
| nshirelaptop | just finished writing my modifications to disk when I noticed the line that says "DO NOT EDIT". Is this a big problem? | 18:04 |
| lordcirth_ | nshirelaptop, usually that means that upgrades could overwrite your changes. | 18:05 |
| nshirelaptop | is there a place where I should place my modifications? | 18:06 |
| nshirelaptop | like how apache has the default config and you place your custom config file in the same directory | 18:06 |
| nshirelaptop | where it first reads your custom values | 18:06 |
| Kaladin90 | Hi guys I am new to Linux and am kind of confused about installing some things. I want this game https://sites.google.com/site/broguegame/ unlike with Windows there isn't a simple install it seems. I downloaded and extracted the folder, navigated to it in terminal and entered ./brogue. But I get this error: error while loading shared libraries: | 18:08 |
| Kaladin90 | libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 18:08 |
| OerHeks | !find libSDL1.2 | 18:10 |
| ubottu | Found: libsdl1.2-dev, libsdl1.2debian | 18:10 |
| OerHeks | install find libSDL1.2debian i guess | 18:10 |
| OerHeks | sad that this game does not give install instructions | 18:10 |
| Kaladin90 | OerHeks Thanks but how do I do this sorry? | 18:11 |
| OerHeks | in terminal: sudo apt-get install <package> | 18:11 |
| OerHeks | but update first, properly | 18:11 |
| Kaladin90 | OerHeks okay, to update do I just do sudo apt-get update | 18:12 |
| lotuspsychje | !uptodate | 18:13 |
| ubottu | To ensure you have all the latest known patches and security updates for your ubuntu installation, please update with the following command: `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade`. See also !upgrades and !security; you may also need to run `apt full-upgrade`. | 18:13 |

| === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon | ||
| OerHeks | Kaladin90, i don't think so, i have no clue what you need in that game, there is an unofficial IRC channel at QuakeNet #brogue | 18:50 |
| OerHeks | ( from their wiki) | 18:50 |
| OerHeks | or ## brogue here on freenode, i spot | 18:51 |
| tomreyn | and the download has C source code, too. | 18:51 |
| Kaladin90 | Okay thanks | 18:51 |
| Siamaster | Sorry, https://termbin.com/o932 | 18:53 |
| OerHeks | Siamaster, snap remove gnome-system-monitor # and reinstall perhaps fixed this issue? | 19:00 |
| tomreyn | Siamaster: you're wasting RAM (though you have plenty) there, amongst other: "AGP: Your BIOS doesn't leave an aperture memory hole. Please enable the IOMMU option in the BIOS setup. This costs you 64MB of RAM. Mapping aperture over RAM [mem 0xc4000000-0xc7ffffff] (65536KB)" | 19:05 |
| tomreyn | your BIOS version is outdated, both HW rev 1.0 and rev 1.1 have newer versions with newer AGESA code. | 19:06 |
| tomreyn | you have many ACPI errors there ("AE_NOT_FOUND, While resolving a named reference package element"), it's possible a newer bios would fix those. | 19:07 |
| tomreyn | search also for "Firmware Bug" | 19:08 |
| Siamaster | Thanks alot! | 19:09 |
| Siamaster | I will try update my BIOS | 19:10 |
| tomreyn | the graphics card may be seated in the wrong pcie slot, limiting overall pcie bandwidth | 19:10 |
| Siamaster | Ok. I will look into that as well if upgrading BIOS doesn't work. Thanks | 19:11 |
| tomreyn | Siamaster: the gnome-system-monitor (graphical process list / monitor) you have installed from a snap may slow the system down. it keeps running into an apparmor restriction. you can replace the snap by the package installed from apt (if it's still available there) | 19:21 |
| brianx | i have a cloud box on 16.04 and it's root has gone read only. other filesystems are still mounted but systemd is not happy. systemctl reboot just returns: | 19:21 |
| brianx | Failed to connect to bus: Connection refused | 19:21 |
| brianx | is there an alternate way to get a reboot? | 19:22 |
| fedorafan | hey there is there something like a session manager as in mac os? | 19:22 |
| tomreyn | Siamaster: other than that i don't see an immediate reason for some storage being slow, but i also don't know which one you were reading and writing to, | 19:22 |
| fedorafan | everytime I restart all my open windows I lost | 19:22 |
| tomreyn | !sysrq | brianx | 19:23 |
| ubottu | brianx: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing slowly, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 19:23 |
| Aavar | how can I test gnome 3.34? Is there an easy way? | 19:24 |
| brianx | tomreyn: how do i do that in the cloud, i'm 800 miles from the box? | 19:24 |
| tomreyn | brianx: this *may* not work over the network with key presses, though. but you can send these keys to the sysrq-trigger in /proc | 19:24 |
| brianx | thanks tomreyn, trying that.... | 19:25 |
| tomreyn | brianx: make sure the system is in a good condition to reboot, though | 19:25 |
| Siamaster | Thanks, it's not slow. It makes computer freeze | 19:26 |
| tomreyn | brianx: i.e. / doesn't become read-only just for fun, but due to critical errors. review "dmesg" to understand what happened. | 19:26 |
| brianx | tomreyn: i can't. systemctl can't stop services and gives the above error for every command. root is ro, but other volumes are busy. | 19:26 |
| brianx | tomreyn: yes, it's a cloud box... they have the occasional hickup and go read only. happens a couple times a year but it's always back to normal after a reboot. | 19:27 |
| tomreyn | Siamaster: i see. well try the bios upgrade first. | 19:27 |
| tomreyn | brianx: hmm this doesn't speak for your host, this is pretty serious, may cause data loss, certainly interrupts any services you run / provide. | 19:28 |
| linuxr | hello everyone...so, I just started up my ubuntu computer, launched firefox and...total system freeze. How can I find out what was going on? thanks | 19:29 |
| brianx | tomreyn: yep. sucks. hasn't caused data loss yet, fortunately my end goes ro immediately so the disk is in a pretty consistent state. | 19:29 |
| OerHeks | brianx, does this cloud box vendor give an admin console to run a filesystem/filecheck? | 19:30 |
| fedorafan | linuxr do you have dualboot | 19:31 |
| brianx | OerHeks: sorta, if it doesn't come up when i get to a computer capable of running it i can use their console. | 19:31 |
| linuxr | fedorafan, nope | 19:31 |
| tomreyn | brianx: which host is it? which kind of virtualization? | 19:32 |
| brianx | kvm | 19:32 |
| fedorafan | linuxr maybe its a hardware issue but I dont know how to check it efficiently there are different tools to do like memtest for ram | 19:35 |
| linuxr | fedorafan, never had issues on this machine...is there a specific log file I could check? | 19:36 |
| tomreyn | linuxr: start by investigating your logs. journalctl -b | 19:36 |
| fedorafan | I dont know sorry but its a good idea | 19:36 |
| tomreyn | actually "journalctl -b -1" to see the log from last boot | 19:36 |
| linuxr | is that a -1 (one) or -l (L)? | 19:37 |
| tomreyn | a "one". you can add -e to jump to the end of the log | 19:37 |
| brianx | tomreyn: it's kvm and i was only able to quiet and reboot. it wouldn't unmount. but everything came up clean. the files that appeared corrupt before the reboot are back to a consistent state. | 19:38 |
| tomreyn | alternatively pressing upper case G also does it. | 19:38 |
| tomreyn | brianx: how did those files appear corrupt? | 19:39 |
| tomreyn | brianx: did you check your system logs, yet? | 19:39 |
| brianx | tomreyn: cat. | 19:39 |
| linuxr | so the last entries before the crash are: Sep 19 21:24:19 mymachine systemd[1]: Starting Flush Journal to Persistent Storage... | 19:39 |
| brianx | tomreyn: i checked them before the reboot, the disk had errors. after the reboot, no errors, not even marked dirty. | 19:39 |
| linuxr | and: systemd-journald[381]: Time spent on flushing to /var is 102.786ms for 775 entries. | 19:39 |
| tomreyn | brianx: what does "the disk had errors" look like? | 19:40 |
| tomreyn | linuxr: so the journal was properly flushed to disk apparently, that's not an issue. | 19:40 |
| brianx | tomreyn: many errors in dmesg, including for example: [3708047.655272] EXT4-fs (dm-0): initial error at time 1566043763: ext4_find_entry:1456: inode 137905 | 19:41 |
| linuxr | tomreyn, what was the issue then? | 19:41 |
| tomreyn | linuxr: i.e. the real issue did not make it into the logs | 19:41 |
| tomreyn | brianx: you should really reboot from a recovery system and run offline file system checks against all those file systems you have. | 19:42 |
| brianx | tomreyn: it always looks like someone kicked the san cable. it's always the same and happens a couple times a year. | 19:42 |
| tomreyn | oh if it's just the rats in the datacenter occasionally tripping the san cables then i guess it's fine. | 19:42 |
| tomreyn | have you considered switching to a serious host? | 19:43 |
| brianx | tomreyn: yeah, i should. but i'm not. the box just isn't that important and i have a backup. | 19:43 |
| lordcirth_ | brianx, if your block devices have a habit of going away, maybe you should be using ZFS. | 19:43 |
| tomreyn | thats if you also have spare ram | 19:44 |
| brianx | tomreyn/lordcirth_ which i don't. it's only got 4gb. | 19:45 |
| lordcirth_ | brianx, how IO-intensive is your workload, though? | 19:45 |
| brianx | usually i loose all volumes at once. this one was unusual that it left some volumes mounted. maybe they plugged the cable back in quickly this time. | 19:46 |
| tomreyn | linuxr: you should probably stress test your hardware. memtest86+ for RAM, cpuburn or similar for cpu etc. | 19:46 |
| linuxr | Can't find anything suspicious | 19:46 |
| brianx | lordcirth_: not at all. reads from memory mostly. writes to logs but there isn't a lot of activity on it. | 19:46 |
| lordcirth_ | brianx, then ZFS would probably not use very much RAM. Perhaps you could test it on a VM locally? | 19:47 |
| brianx | lordcirth_: if it were a more important box, i probably would. i may actually play with it to learn for boxes that are more important. | 19:48 |
| linuxr | tomreyn, yes I'll do that | 19:48 |
| tomreyn | linuxr: you could also post the full system log now for us to review, if you like. journalctl -b | nc termbin.com 9999 | 19:48 |
| lordcirth_ | I only keep production data on ZFS, if I can help it. | 19:48 |
| tomreyn | linuxr: or -b -1 if you want to post the one from last boot | 19:49 |
| tomreyn | i mean form the previous boot, the one where it failed in the end. | 19:49 |
| brianx | zfs really is something i should be learning how to use at some point soon, not for the problem box from today though. | 19:49 |
| robertparkerx | how do I find out what port ssh is listening on | 19:54 |
| robertparkerx | rsync for 22 doesn't seem to work | 19:55 |
| robertparkerx | It sits there | 19:55 |
| raver | netstat - tulpen | 19:55 |
| raver | Lists all ports used | 19:55 |
| brianx | anyway, thanks tomreyn. up and looking clean. | 19:55 |
| OerHeks | robertparkerx, opened the ufw firewall? sudo ufw allow ssh | 19:56 |

| carpediembaby | Hello, I am on a Live CD session after my computer with dual boot windows 10 and ubuntu 18.04 stopped working. When I try to boot, i get: error failure to read or write to hd0 | 20:11 |
| robertparkerx | Yes I am 100% certain its swedish | 20:13 |
| robertparkerx | It has the accents | 20:13 |
| robertparkerx | It's this layout https://forums.crackberry.com/blackberry-keyone-f445/keyone-swedish-keyboard-layout-1102928/ but I am missing keys on my keyboard -- the key next to z | 20:13 |
| tomreyn | robertparkerx: did you try what i suggested? | 20:14 |
| robertparkerx | Yes it just typed 007c | 20:14 |
| carpediembaby | I tried to open gparted and reformat the partitions but it doesn't work . I get input/output error while writing on /dev/sda1 | 20:14 |
| tomreyn | ctrl+shift+u didn't write an u with an underscore? | 20:14 |
| robertparkerx | no sir | 20:15 |
| Aavar | robertparkerx: It looks to be as you say... next to the z-key... weird... | 20:15 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: what is it you're trying to doo now? delete everything on the hard disk you normally boot from? | 20:17 |
| carpediembaby | i was thinking i can delete the ubuntu and another extended partition and reinstall ubuntu | 20:18 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: did you run gparted with sudo? | 20:19 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn, no. I didn't think sudo would be required when in live mode. let me try that | 20:19 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn : got the same error again with gparted running in sudo | 20:21 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: hmm, yes, indeed those errors you got to see sound more like a potential hardware issue. can you dmesg | grep ' ata' | nc termbin.com 9999 | 20:22 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn in gparted, there is a red exclamation mark on the data partition (without explaining what it means). But I can't do anything with any partitions | 20:23 |
| tomreyn | yes, not very telling, we need more info. | 20:23 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn https://termbin.com/721k | 20:23 |
| tomreyn | there you go, this looks like a hardware issue. | 20:24 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: did you open or move your computer recently? | 20:24 |
| FlyingPersian | hello people. I kinda messed up the wifi on my laptop running ubuntu 18. I wanted to flash one of my smart devices with another firmware and installed a few things to make my laptop simulate the update server for tuya. after a reboot my wifi stopped detecting any wifi networks | 20:24 |
| carpediembaby | its a laptop and i move it often | 20:24 |
| FlyingPersian | I removed all software that was installed with the script, but it's still not fixe | 20:25 |
| FlyingPersian | d | 20:25 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: i guess you'll likely need to buy a replacement drive then. | 20:25 |
| FlyingPersian | it installed these tools: dnsmasq hostapd screen curl python3-pip python3-setuptools python3-wheel mosquitto haveged net-tools | 20:25 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: that's an internal drive, right? | 20:26 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn i see. anything else i can check before doing that? its an ssd that i haven't even used very much. | 20:26 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn yes, its internal | 20:27 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: what'S the output of readlink -f /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000\:01\:00.1-ata-2 | 20:28 |

| tomreyn | carpediembaby: hmm this doesn't actually look so bad. but your system logs did. can you post all of journalctl -b | nc termbin.com 9999 | 20:40 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn https://termbin.com/bwlfg | 20:41 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: i see you (or someone else) did several smart test runs on this disk in the past. is this because you experienced similar issues before? | 20:41 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn i don't think so. I just installed smarttools now and yesterday i tried to use this command but it wasn't installed and i didn't try to install it | 20:44 |
| Mibix | can i just clone the ext4 partition my ubuntu install is on to another drive and have it work fine or do i need some kind of partition table | 20:44 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn how much in the past are we talking about? | 20:44 |
| OerHeks | Mibix, you asked yesterday too? after cloning reinstall grub with the correct uuid's | 20:45 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: 23 days of your computer running (not 23 real days, but more) | 20:46 |
| thirdender | Hey, is there a channel specific to security? | 20:46 |

| thirdender | tomreyn: thanks! | 20:47 |
| tomreyn | thirdender: if you mean IT security, there's ##security (yes, double hash) | 20:47 |
| OerHeks | i would just reinstall, much faster | 20:47 |
| thirdender | Nah, specifically looking at a CVE and whether it still applies to the currently available packages for Ubuntu 18.04 | 20:47 |
| towlie_ | hi, my software center is complaining about ssl handshake | 20:48 |
| towlie_ | i have a mitm proxy and have the pem | 20:48 |
| towlie_ | where do i put it so that it will trust it? | 20:48 |
| thirdender | That may fall under IT Security, not sure. I'm assuming there's an Ubuntu security team that moves these things around though. | 20:48 |
| Mibix | lol it would take me weeks to recover from a reinstall | 20:48 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: and three more times before that, roughly 2 days of uptime between those earlier tests | 20:48 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn it is unlikely in the last 23 days. I am the only user for several years and i didn't. that is weird... | 20:48 |
| Mibix | probably longer | 20:48 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn maybe it is run automatically? where do you see this info? | 20:49 |
| towlie_ | oh also i already put it in etc/ssl/certs | 20:49 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: in your smart log. there's a chance that this data is is incorrect, since this storage is not fully supported by this version of smartmontools | 20:49 |

| johnsmith92 | Hello! I am trying to install Qbitorrent on Ubuntu 18.04 by adding a PPA and then doing a apt-get update and then trying to install the package but it says not found, any idea why? | 20:55 |
| johnsmith92 | Here's the commands I have to run: https://launchpad.net/~qbittorrent-team/+archive/ubuntu/qbittorrent-stable | 20:56 |
| johnsmith92 | And the package name is qbitorrent, but aptitude says package not found | 20:56 |
| OerHeks | johnsmith92, did you run apt update after adding that pps? | 20:57 |
| OerHeks | c/ppa? | 20:57 |
| akemhp | johnsmith92, Did you write qbittorrent with 2 t and 2 r? | 20:57 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: i'm not sure what to do with this, hdparm and smartctl succeeded in communicating with the drive, but your kernel reports a lot of errors while communicating with it. this could be a firmware bug, could be a broken connector (though there ar enot a lot of connectirs between the mainboard and the storage in a laptop). you have a very old mainboard firmware installed, and lenovo has also provided a firmware update for the storage. i | 20:57 |
| tomreyn | would recommend you install both, in this order. | 20:57 |
| OerHeks | i would go for deluge, instead of a ppa bittorrent version | 20:58 |
| johnsmith92 | oups | 20:58 |
| johnsmith92 | forgot a t, I always thought it was called qbitorrent | 20:58 |
| johnsmith92 | thanks lol, i feel really stupid | 20:59 |

| carpediembaby | tomreyn I will try, but i don't think i will be able to install them without being able to boot into windows | 21:00 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: for the bios update, they provide an iso image, which you could write to a usb key, i would think. your current bios version is Version: R02ET59W (1.32 ), Release Date: 09/01/2017. scroll down on the page i pointed you to for a release history. | 21:01 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn also i'm not sure if and old firmware would have caused the disk to stop running abruptly | 21:02 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: i agree this seems not so likely. on the other hand, i also wouldn't rule it out. | 21:02 |
| tomreyn | https://support.lenovo.com/de/en/product_security/ps500118 | 21:03 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: there's a much newer storage firmware for your drive here: https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/gb/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-x-series-laptops/thinkpad-x260/20f5/20f5s0w232/pc0jd5tr/downloads/DS540231 | 21:05 |
| tomreyn | s/drive/SSD/ | 21:05 |
| tomreyn | this one does seem to require windows, though | 21:05 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: current INTEL SSDSC2KF480H6L firmware version: L37P available firmware version: L43P | 21:07 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn yes i should have been updating them but I haven't | 21:07 |
| carpediembaby | i will try to update the bios but i will still have to resolve the disk issue before updating the disk firmware | 21:08 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn also, the version L37P is not in the list of affected versions in the article you shared | 21:10 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: the article i shared? if you're referring to https://support.lenovo.com/de/en/product_security/ps500118 then this is an unrelated issue, but yes, your firmware version is affected by this, too. | 21:12 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: your ssd is a SSDSC2KF480H6L, where affected firmware versions are "L38P and below" (according to the article), and yours is L37P, and the latest HP offers is L43P | 21:14 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn: yes i was talking about that and yes, you are right. I conveniently ignored "and below" | 21:14 |
| carpediembaby | Nonetheless, I can't upgrade it without first resolving this issue and having a windows os running | 21:14 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: why not? | 21:15 |
| tomreyn | yes, you'd need windows to use the lenovo firmware update for the ssd. you would not need to install windows to this very disk, though. | 21:16 |
| tomreyn | also, you can try this iso which is intels' version of the firmware updater: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28749 | 21:16 |
| carpediembaby | tomreyn: the upgrade is a windows executable and i can't boot into Windows | 21:17 |
| carpediembaby | let me try the iso from intel | 21:17 |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: intels' product / marketing name for this product series is "Intel SSD Pro 5400s Series" | 21:23 |
| tomreyn | they actually list version 042P as the latest at https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000017245/memory-and-storage.html | 21:24 |
| akemhp | Can any of you recommend a sturdy laptop that is Ubuntu certified? | 21:26 |

| frib | *or into fluxbox with a different user | 21:55 |
| phillipsjk | twocarlo, that would only work if the files were simply renamed. If they were actually encrypted as well, I file utilty would not help much. | 21:55 |
| === ben_r_ is now known as ben_r | ||
| tomreyn | twocarlo: this is really not an ubuntu support topic, you are looking for support with fixing your windows installation. i don't just want to send you away, though. /join ##windows and maybe ##security and use https://id-ransomware.malwarehunterteam.com/ to identify the ransomware (apparently it belongs to the family called "STOP Ransomware") and read up here https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/704271/domn-ransomware-attack/ - more help on | 21:57 |

| wjlafrance | Hello #ubuntu, I recently upgraded from 18.04 to 19.04 (I know this is unsupported but I couldn't figure out how to install 18.10). Worked great, except now when I'm booting I see "Begin flushing journal to persistent storage" as the last console item, and then I need to mash a combination of Ctrl+Alt+Super+F[1|2|7] until I'll get video. Any ideas on where to start debugging this? | 22:29 |
| OerHeks | 18.10 is EOL, 19.04 is fine | 22:30 |
| wjlafrance | I mean 18.04 -> 19.04 skipping a release is not supported. | 22:30 |
| OerHeks | i think do-release-upgrade does that? | 22:31 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: so you mean you have to FIND the GUI? That sounds like by skipping over 18.10 you didn't receive the releas-upgrade that switched the kernel command-line setting of the GUI's tty from 7 to 1 | 22:32 |
| wjlafrance | That sounds about right. Do you know where I can hack that in? | 22:33 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: what does it show for "cat /proc/cmdline" right now? | 22:33 |
| wjlafrance | TJ-: BOOT_IMAGE=/ROOT/ubuntu-1@/boot/vmlinuz-5.0.0-29-generic root=ZFS=tank/ROOT/ubuntu-1 ro acpi_enforce_resources=lax | 22:33 |
| TJ- | OerHeks: can you recall what the variable is, set in grub, that controls adding the vt=7/1 is for Gnome? I'm on Xubuntu so don't use need that and cannot find the applicable code right now | 22:37 |
| wjlafrance | Was it changed from 7 to 1, or 1 to 7? I have `vt_handoff="1"` in /etc/grub.d/10_linux | 22:40 |
| tomreyn | 7 to 1 | 22:41 |
| TJ- | oh that's the name! vt_handoff... wonder why I got zero hits for "vt" ! | 22:41 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: which tty is the GUI actually on right now? | 22:41 |
| tomreyn | $ rgrep -Fl vt /etc/grub.d/ | 22:41 |
| tomreyn | /etc/grub.d/10_linux | 22:41 |
| fallenour | hey guys | 22:42 |
| wjlafrance | I'm logged in and using tty4 right now. tty1 has a login screen. | 22:42 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: helps to type a dot not a comma! Perils of typing in the dark, in bed! | 22:42 |
| tomreyn | hehe | 22:42 |
| fallenour | im looking to use /snap/bin/lxd init to setup lxd to use a pre-existing ceph cluster, but I cant seem to get it to work. Im following the prompt, but its just not working, or givin gme options to connect to a previously existing one. Thoughts? | 22:42 |
| tomreyn | fallenour: there's non-snap'y lxd, too. | 22:44 |
| TJ- | tomreyn: do you have a line "set vt_handoff=vt.handoff=7" in "if [ "$vt_handoff" = 1 ]; then" stanza in that file? | 22:44 |
| fallenour | I already removed lxd and lxd-client as per the instruction set, so only /snap/bin/lxd exists now | 22:45 |
| tomreyn | TJ-: //termbin.com/taij | 22:45 |
| tomreyn | + "https:" | 22:45 |
| TJ- | no, you have set vt_handoff=vt.handoff=1 (this is in function gfxmode | 22:46 |
| wjlafrance | I have the same, set vt_handoff=vt.handoff=1, but it doesn't show in my /proc/cmdline | 22:47 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: show us "pastebinit <( grep -n gfxmode /boot/grub/grub.cfg )" | 22:47 |
| tomreyn | TJ-: i am convinced this is an unmodified file from 18.04's grub-common package | 22:47 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: tomreyn I maintain my own custom grub build and don't use Gnome so my 7 is intended to be different :) | 22:48 |
| tomreyn | i see | 22:48 |
| wjlafrance | TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/jd4VHfvt7X/ | 22:49 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: So we now need to trace what linux_gfx_mode is being set to: "grep linux_gfx_mode /boot/grub/grub.cfg" | 22:55 |
| fallenour | Inside the LXD preseed yaml file, how do I configure LXD to use a previously existing Ceph Cluster? | 22:56 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: that is controlled from /etc/default/grub by GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=<something> which I suspect we'll find isn't being set. | 22:59 |
| robertparkerx | I figured out a way! | 23:00 |
| wjlafrance | TJ-: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/k23w8XcNHt/ <-- output from the grep. Looking in /etc/default/grub, I don't have a GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX= line as you suspect. | 23:01 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: here's an overview and the values you can use https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub/html_node/gfxpayload.html#gfxpayload | 23:02 |
| TJ- | wjlafrance: you'd add to /etc/default/grub "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=auto" (or maybe "text") then "sudo update-grub" to have it written to /boot/grub/grub.cfg. On next boot it'll take effect | 23:03 |
| tomreyn | fallenour: /join #ubuntu-server or /join #ubuntu-core pending on what you're using there. | 23:03 |
| tomreyn | * DEpending ;-) | 23:04 |
| wjlafrance | TJ-, thanks for the help. Made that change and installed, rebooting now. Wish me luck! | 23:07 |
| * TJ- hides | 23:07 | |
| tomreyn | carpediembaby: oh you're back, or still here? i hadn't noticed. any luck with those firmware upgrades? | 23:10 |
| tomreyn | (only) if those don't help, see also this https://superuser.com/questions/1064488/hard-resetting-link-after-ssd-firmware-upgrade | 23:10 |
| wjlafrance | TJ-, I added `GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=auto` to /etc/default/grub, ran `sudo grub-install /dev/sda` and rebooted. No such luck. Now looking at /boot/grub/grub.cfg I see the gfxmode function and the `if [ "${1}" = "keep" ...` stanza where it would assign vt_handoff, but I'm not sure what that references. | 23:20 |
| wjlafrance | /proc/cmdline remains unchanged | 23:20 |
| wjlafrance | I was disconnected after the last thing I said, sorry. | 23:21 |
