Intelotomreyn,  or e.g you by vps, encrypt it with ubuntu encryption. can vps provider see whats going inside vps?00:00
tomreynthey provide your ram, they can dump it00:00
tomreynon a physical (bare metal) computer, the attacker would need to gain access to a root shell, or dump the memory from dimms.00:01
xoxocan someone point me to the documentation for the built in Intel WiFi drivers?00:02
xoxoi want to port one of them to macOS00:02
xoxoand i need to know whats happening and why00:02
tomreynkernel.org00:02
xoxoi tried that =/00:02
Intelotomreyn, to dump ram, they need to unplug ram00:03
Intelotomreyn,  how they can get root access?00:03

tomreynIntelo: by exploiting vulnerabilities, or physical attacks, such as a hardware keylogger. but this is pretty much beyond the scope of this channel.00:04
tomreynxoxo: yes?00:05
xoxotomreyn: just sharing my conclusion00:05
tomreynthat's not a conclusion, that's an amazon.com tracking link, pretty much OT here00:05
xoxooops00:06
xoxoi sent you the wrong link00:06
Intelotomreyn, ok. talking about ubunty encryption, is there any way other than hardware keylogger or ram dump, to get into a running or shutdown computer?00:06
xoxotomreyn: sorry, it's a book called "Essential Linux Devices"00:06
Intelotomreyn, I mean to say that when the computer is running, the disk is in unencrypted state. so it can be just read00:06
Inteloalso what bit of encryption does ubuntu does? can I have 1024bit?00:07
tomreynxoxo: this channel is about ubuntu support, we don't to driver development or porting support here.00:07
xoxotomreyn: sorry00:07
tomreynxoxo: maybe try ##linux00:07
Intelotomreyn, ^00:07
tomreynIntelo: ask in ##security please00:08
Intelotomreyn,  I think they won't know how ubuntu encryption works00:08
tomreynit's called LUKS, and they do00:10
eipip1e0how to list what packages installed recently?00:54
waltmanYesterday someone posted a shell command to return the original ubuntu version that was used to install ubuntu on a box. I didn't save it, and I've been unable to find it online. Does anyone happen to know what it is?00:59

spinningcatwhat is the command for distribution upgrade?01:23
Bashing-omspinningcat: Your intent here is to go to 19.10 ?01:26
spinningcatyeah or 20.0401:26
spinningcatis 20.04 buggy?01:26
Bashing-om20.04 is still a figment in the imagination. 19.10 is latest and is not LTS.01:27
=== mnemonic is now known as Guest74507
spinningcatBashing-om,  hmm how can i upgrade?01:29
spinningcatfound the command01:31
Bashing-omspinningcat: Check that /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades is set to any, and in terminal execute ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade ; sudo apt do-release-upgrade '. The upgrade path should now be open.01:32
eipip1e0i found a wierd issue with bash history which always eats any 'tar' command - no tar on history or the beginning 'tar' was eatten, so it does not appear in history expansion and isearch. any possible reason?01:34
=== zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin
eipip1e0maybe i should ask #bash01:35
Bashing-omeipip1e0: A leading space will cause the entry in the history file to be absent.01:35
eipip1e0does history record it if tar failed?01:37
eipip1e0Bashing-om: tested no leading space the same issue01:40
guiverceipip1e0, if leading space(s) are used commands aren't written to history (if local; if remote logged in usually commands get recorded but configuration can change this) - but local setup can vary this01:40
Bashing-omeipip1e0: Do not know as I have never yet had tar fail on me :(01:40
eipip1e0no matter what history does not record tar on my box/bash01:40
guiverceipip1e0, check ownership of ~/.bash_history  (if not owned by you, eg. `sudo` - your commands won't be able to overwrite the 'root' ownership so nothing new will be recorded)01:43
Bashing-omguiverc: Great thought ^^ from a great mind :P01:48
Polybius-if im using tor browser does my browser still look in /etc/hosts for domain names?02:06

doug16kdoes ubuntu 18.04 LTS installer automagically install the HWE kernel if you have a ryzen 2600G (integrated GPU)? My (linux novice) friend just did an install and it already had the hwe, I was shocked. he didn't install it03:35
lotuspsychjedoug16k: HWE kernel is now on the ubuntu-desktop iso 18.04 by default03:37
doug16kah ok, that explains it. thanks03:37
lotuspsychjedoug16k: only users that came from 18.04.0 start still have 4.1503:37
doug16kit works, but it's not quite perfect. there's a crash in dmesg every startup (in amdgpu code), but it works anyway03:38
doug16kit's fairly amazing how well linux tolerates kernel mode exceptions nowadays03:39

xpistosHey all03:48
kinghatif I installed 19.10 on my laptop with Bluetooth disabled in the BIOS and have turned it back on, how do you force it to go get the drivers for it?03:49
xpistosAfter I reboot my server my drive assignments are different. /dev/sdd is not long the 4tb drive. now it is /dev/sda/. Will this be fixed if I use the UUID info from blkid?03:49
guivercxpistos, the drive assignments is machine specific, thus why UUIDs exist & should be used03:50
guivercxpistos, the 'fix' for sdx (changing) would need to come from your BIOS/UEFI as it provides the order used by the booted OS for each boot; thus just use UUID03:53
xpistosguiverc: thanks a million!!!03:54
xpistosguiverc: I will make those changes right now03:54

rscarrascoHello. I'm having a problem with Ubuntu NTP server, as it's seems to be not configured to handle daylight savings at TZ America/Sao_Paulo. Official Brazilian DS started yesterday. Is this kind of issues handled here, or should I refer somewhere else?10:52
tomreynrscarrasco: what's your ubuntu release, is it fully updated, which ntp server do you use?10:55

zambaso how can i get that version for 18.04?11:40
lupulo@zamba you could mix repositories and it could generate dependencies problem11:41
zambalupulo: so what is the recommended way of doing this11:42
squeezyzamba: compile it yourself11:46
TomyWorkapt told me that lots of seemingly forensics-related packages are no longer required and can be removed. I thought have I been hacked? Turns out the "vagrant" package in bionic recommends vagrant-libvirt, which then drags in a shitton of dependencies. funny enough, virtualbox is only a "suggests". The standard use case for Vagrant is with VirtualBox, not with libvirt, this recommendation for libvirt makes no sense11:47

Fallenourive realized theres a major uptick in lxd outages since may of 2018, and has continued on for the entire 18 series of ubuntu, to include 18.04LTS12:04
Fallenourcentered specifically around lxd snap12:04
TomyWorkwtf is lxd snap even?12:05
FallenourTomyWork, its a baseline install of lxd service currently being recommended by many mainstream services, to include ubuntu12:06
TomyWorkah, well i don't use that, so what's the point in highlighting me?12:06
Fallenourtheres a collision from what ive seen so far from deb/snap, which is causing the database and backend core services with systemd to fail.12:06
FallenourTomyWork, you are part of the community yes?12:06
TomyWorkof the lxd snap community? no12:07
FallenourTomyWork, of the ubuntu community12:07
TomyWorkyes i use some of the 10000 other packages12:07
FallenourTomyWork, then this includes you, because it impacts you.12:07
Fallenourif you use ubuntu 18 series, you use snap, whether you realize it or not12:08
TomyWorki use kubuntu12:08
FallenourTomyWork, and other services on ubuntu 18 series are moving, migrating, or integrating snap, so are other deb packages, whether we want it to or not.12:08
Fallenourwhich is part of the problem.12:08
Fallenourside note, how do you like kubuntu?12:09
TomyWorkyeah on gnome ubuntu they're using snaps now, for whatever reason12:09
FallenourTomyWork, I think its a trainwreck personally12:09
TomyWorkif you want to do something about it, personally I'd welcome it12:10
FallenourTomyWork, thats part of what Im working on. Im currently rebuilding a production stack for I think the 5th time in 2 days from snap related issues.12:10
TomyWorksnap is nice, i get intellij from it, updated whenever i do os updates. but why move core os components to snap?12:10
FallenourTomyWork, my thoughts exactly.12:11
Fallenourcore services shouldnt be moved ever, unless ABSOLUTELY necessary for kernel specific requirements.12:11
Fallenourotherwise, its risking boundless issues for no reason other than...something, becauase its sure not convenience.12:11
TomyWorkFallenour, wait, why is your production stack dependent on snaps? on kubuntu i have exactly 4 snaps. that's core, intellij and 2 more that i installed myself12:12
TomyWorki dont see why ubuntu-server would have more snaps by default than kubuntu12:12
FallenourTomyWork, because I use LXD for most systems related deployments with Juju12:13
TomyWork(the "core" snap is "The core runtime environment for snapd" according to "snap info core", btw)12:13
FallenourMaaS > Juju > 18.04LTS > Openstack12:13
TomyWorkMaaS? Mess as a Service?12:13
Fallenouris my standard production flow. Everything is deployed in systems containers.12:13
TomyWorkwhy don't you use docker like everyone else?12:14
FallenourTomyWork, metal as a service, although mess does fit the bill from tiem to time. its one misclick away from disaster.12:14
FallenourTomyWork, because service containers dont possess the security features or capabilites a systems container does. its one of the core issues in the current trending fad Im looking to fix.12:14
ioriaFallenour, you know that lxd is available also as a .deb pkg in repository, right ? not only as a snap12:15
Fallenourioria, yeap, but the recommendation, and default deployment is snap12:15
ioriaok12:15
TomyWorki dont think any kind of container has adequate security12:15
tomreynactually lxd is snap only since disco12:15
Fallenourwhy? I have no idea, because theres a laundry list of issues following the path that hurricane has unleashed.12:15
TomyWorkbut it's a nice isolation12:15
FallenourIts not bad, dont get me wrong tomreyn but its causing a lot of issues.12:16
tomreyni have not made a statement of support for lxd as a snap12:16
FallenourI know tomreyn I think its a difficult argument for anyone to make honestly, but I can understand the modularity that snaps provide.12:17

Fallenourthat being said, I dont think everything should be a snap, like the calculator. someone thought that needed to be a snap?12:17

jeloumeI've windows and I think I installed on my windows like dual boot, but yesterday I add a new distro so..12:39
jeloumeI think uefi because when I did 'ls /boot/efi/efi/ it shows me my other distro12:40
jeloumeis it allright?12:40
tomreynit's alright as soon as you *know* which mode each of the OSs is installed in.12:40
tomreynotherwise you're likely to run into trouble12:41

jeloumeyesterday12:43
ioriaCDuv, try with --verbose12:47
jeloumemm I'm gonna check with os prober12:48
tomreynjeloume: don't multi boot unless you're happy to deal with the occasional breakage.12:48
tomreynand you really should install all OSes in either uefi or bios mode, not mixed12:49
jeloumeehm so what can I do? I wrote "os-prober" on the terminal to see what happens https://paste.debian.net/1108907/ it shows me 3 O.S but I've 412:49
tomreynin bios mode it will still break unless you separate OSes onto different storages, windows on the first one.12:50
tomreynah this is not worth the time, you'll just drown in this setup.12:50
jeloumeI don't understand at all :(  there's a distro that not appears there and it's what I'm using right now12:51
OerHeksjeloume, i think you need to seek help in that distro channel, it is not really an ubuntu issue, as ubuntu appears in your grub12:54
jeloumee.e but they told to come here because I'm using ubuntu that it's install on windows12:54
jeloumeI thought it will be easy u.u12:55
OerHeksNo, i don't do other distros.12:57
CDuvtomreyn, the /var/log/systlog was being filled by *lots* of "The Secure Boot key you've entered is not valid. The password used must be between 8 and 16 characters.": it was the "vboxdrv.service" systemD service that was still running.

pragmaticenigmaboktan: Ubuntu and other Linux distributions come with a large assortment of drivers already included and pre-tuned to work with the OS properly. It is better to verify the device does not work with those drivers before assuming you need to install a 3rd party driver16:49

boktanOerHeks i dont know if its working actually :/  and before i did install the driver from another source and im new on ubuntu if someone haves experience about alfa maybe can help me i was thinking16:56
JimBuntuboktan, You *may* get more help in ##linux, since it's not really an Ubuntu thing16:57
boktanokay thank you JimBuntu16:57
tonsofpcsboktan: did you confirm that the driver is correct for the pciid/usbid of the device you have?17:07
boktani dont know how to confirm it :(  but here have the driver https://files.alfa.com.tw/?dir=%5B1%5D%20WiFi%20USB%20adapter/AWUS036ACH/Linux and on ubuntu sources have a driver i dont know which one is the best choice17:08
boktantonsofpcs17:08
tonsofpcsboktan: what is this device?17:10
=== um1b0zu1 is now known as um1b0zu
boktanalfa-AWUS036ACH wifi adaptor17:11
boktantonsofpcs17:11
tonsofpcshow does it connect to the system?17:11
ioriaboktan, maybe paste the lsusb  infos of the  adapter17:11
pragmaticenigmaboktan: The best choice is what I already told you. The ones included in the Ubuntu repositories are already configured to work with Ubuntu. Any other source for a driver is not supported here as the volunteers in this chat rely on the official documentation for Ubuntu to be able to help you.17:12
OerHeksguys, he knows about  rtl8812au-dkms in our repos17:12
OerHeksboktan, stop trolling dude, this is abuse of volunteers17:13
Ilgazstrangest thing ever, I had to reinstall ubuntu 19.10 to get back "auto tablet mode" back in my 2 in 1 pc17:13
boktanim not trolling :/17:13
tonsofpcsboktan: how does it connect to the system?17:13
boktani did not understand the question i still did not plug the adaptor to laptop i dont want to do it before installing the driver :/17:14
boktantonsofpcs17:14
tonsofpcsboktan: so it's USB? builtin? PCI?17:14
boktanusb17:14
tonsofpcsboktan: ok, plug it in and run lsusb, then you should see a line that says ID 4444:5555 Name of device, paste that line here please17:15
boktanbut is it okay to plug in the device before installing the driver? in one youtube video one pakistan guy was saying dont plug it before installing the driver :/  tonsofpcs17:16
boktan?17:16
ioriabocan you read ?17:16
tonsofpcsboktan: yes, it is ok. The system might even work with it immediately without installing a third party driver17:16
OerHekswhy would he need to do that? he can tell that it is a 8812, and keeps on going to ask and gets the same answer over and over again17:17
tonsofpcslinux tends not to have the "system installed the wrong driver and now I can't install the right one" issue that a certain other OS has.17:17
boktanon kali linux i was installing realtek-rtl8812au-dkms for this device OerHeks17:18
boktandoes it means 8812?17:18
akemhpHey, isn't qbittorrent package for Ubuntu 18.04, there is a bot command to check i think?17:19

boktantonsofpcs17:21
boktanbecause of i did not installed the driver it is not showing on iwconfig tonsofpcs17:22
ioriaboktan, rtl8812au-dkms is the correct package unless you have installed manually anothe moduel; and consider SB17:22
boktanioria is also enough if i just do apt-get install realtek-rtl8812au-dkms ?17:22
ioriaboktan, yes, but disable SB17:23
boktani dont need to restart laptop just plug out the usb and install right?17:23
ioriaboktan, i suggest to reboot17:24
boktanioria okay thank you for your help and to you too tonsofpcs17:24

CorvetteZR1hello.  when i install chromium-snap transition package, snap times out18:29
CorvetteZR1there is no proxy, everything from apt mirror installs fine18:29
CorvetteZR1it's just when i'm trying to install chromium, it tries to connect for 30 minutes and times out18:29
CorvetteZR1is there any configuration for snap that needs to be done?18:29
OerHeksCorvetteZR1, on what ubuntu version?18:30
CorvetteZR119.1018:30
OerHekssudo snap install chromium18:30
CorvetteZR1is the transition package not working?18:31
CorvetteZR1in 19.10?18:31
OerHeksthat is the info on https://snapcraft.io/chromium18:31
CorvetteZR1reason i ask, is this installation is for a docker desktop container...i'm basically keeping the code the same, just incrimenting ubuntu version.  this worked fine in 19.04 where the default chromium was apt, no snap transition stuff18:32
CorvetteZR1but now in 19.10, because of this change, my pipeline breaks and i can't make a new image18:32
kur1jhas anyone had luck with p11-kit-proxy adding system wide certs automatically to firefox?18:32
OerHeksif you upgraded, some functions on chromium may not work immediatly, this bug is know https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/184862118:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1848621 in chromium-browser (Ubuntu) "[snap] lost all passwords on 19.10 when chromium-browser deb was replaced by a snap" [Undecided,Confirmed]18:32
CorvetteZR1i'll try snap install, but i have a feeling it's when snap is installed, there might be some extra config i need to add?18:32
OerHeksCorvetteZR1, oh, docker, not bare metal18:32
CorvetteZR1yes, docker.  not bare metal/vm18:33
CorvetteZR1ubottu: good to know, but this is not a concern since this is just building a base image with no previous settings/users18:33
OerHeksi have no clue about docker18:34
CorvetteZR1k.  well, in this case, process for installing packages and such is the same as bare metal18:34
CorvetteZR1i'll try your suggestion though, maybe the transition package is just not working or something18:34
CorvetteZR1does snap ask any questions?  is there a -y switch for it to just say yes to everything?18:38
CorvetteZR1can't find any documentation on this...18:38
OerHeksman snap gives no -y18:43
octav1aMy workplace provides a download page for their VPN which gives downloads of a pulse secure client for windows and mac. Is there any way to extract the config from either of these to use in another client like openVPN?18:44
OerHeksso, some packages that require the wine snap, might  fail :-P18:44
Habbieoctav1a, in general, things inside files can come out of those files; but i doubt pulse secure is openvpn-compatible18:48
octav1aThere is also a pulse secure client available for Linux, it seems, there is just not a pre configured one to download by my workplace.18:50
tomreynopenconnect works, there's also a network manager gui for it18:52
tomreynbut test with the CLI first18:52
tomreynpulse also offers linux clients, you could try to massage your admins to offer that, too. it's somehwat unreliable, though18:53
CorvetteZR1k, so using snap install chromium throws an error, can't connect to http://localhost/v2/snaps19:05
CorvetteZR1so is there some config that needs to be done first?19:05
boktani did reinstalled the ubuntu again :/19:07
boktanhow to install this stupid awus036ach driver :/19:07
sarnoldCorvetteZR1: do you have snapd installed and running?19:13
CorvetteZR1sarnold: installed yes, running i guess not...doesn't want to start in docker for some reason19:17
CorvetteZR1systemctl start snapd throws an error...i can't remember exact erro19:17
sarnoldCorvetteZR1: ah docker may be funny. try asking in #snappy about mixing snaps with docker19:17
CorvetteZR1yea, i just want to install chromium...wish there was a fallback to apt19:18
CorvetteZR1i'm creating a new image without chromium, will see if i can get it working manually...challenge is getting it to run/install during the docker build pipeline19:19
CorvetteZR1is there another way to start snapd besides systemctl?  the error i got before was systemd specific19:20
HabbieCorvetteZR1, you're not really supposed to do that outside of systemctl; it would help if you could show us the error19:21
CorvetteZR1Habbie: k, i'll have to add the systemctl command back into the pipeline and let it error out again.  will get it in a bit19:23
CorvetteZR1k, Habbie, so the error is:19:30
CorvetteZR1System has not been booted with systemd as init system (PID 1). Can't opperate19:30
CorvetteZR1Failed to connect to bus: Host is down19:30
Habbieoh19:30

regexpertiseI'm running the new 19.10 because its kernal works with some strange ACPI settings on my HP Envy x360.  This laptop has a AMD Ryzen 5, however I do not see the proprietary drivers lsited in 'find additional drivers'  Is this something I need to add manually?20:12
tomreynwhich proprietary drivers were you hoping to find?20:13
