[00:14] <Vooloo> how do I limit ufw to only accept ssh connections to all clients on 192.168.1.0-255?
[00:24] <melatonina> Hello. I'm using Ubuntu 19.04. In the last few weeks, I need to press Control-C two or three times to actually copy something. It didn't use to be so. Do you know why?
[00:32] <Bashing-om> melatonina: ruled out a bad 'c' key ?
[00:33] <melatonina> Bashing-om: the "c" key works fine by itself. Never had one prioblem with it. The keyboard is quite new, too, in general.
[00:34] <Bashing-om> melatonina: Sorry, no other thought :(
[00:34] <melatonina> Bashing-om: thanks for trying
[00:36] <Bashing-om> melatonina: 'xev' reveal any abnormality ?
[00:42] <melatonina> Bashing-om: there are the four events displayed when I press Control-C: https://gist.github.com/mel4tonin4/45e2d809be3870deb8f46559b5814926
[00:42] <melatonina> Bashing-om: I always get all of them
[00:51] <Bashing-om> melatonina: Hummm ..my return for "ctl" - state 0x0, keycode 133 (keysym 0xffeb, Super_L) - ' where I do not see in your post.
[00:54] <melatonina> Bashing-om: can it depend on the kind of keyboard and get mapped in the proper way? There is an event for Control_L and since the copy work the second time, this is being mapped correctly.  Otherwise it would never work.
[00:55] <melatonina> I'm don't know much about keyboard mappings.
[00:57] <Bashing-om> melatonina: Lot's to I do not know - my return for the right ctl key "  state 0x0, keycode 134 (keysym 0xffec, Super_R), ".
[00:57] <newdimension> I'm trying to figure what this command does openssl x509 -sha1 -noout -fingerprint -in user.pem | sed -e 's/^.*=//;s/://g;y/ABCDEF/abcdef/'
[00:58] <newdimension> man openssl mentions x509 but doesn't really say anything
[01:23] <Bashing-om> melatonina: I beg your pardonon my last --- 133/134 are the "windows" return codes on my system :)
[01:39] <radkos> Eduard_Munteanu, ftp i guess
[01:57] <rfm> newdimension, the details for each subcommand for openssl are in separate man pages.  try "man openssl-x509"
[05:52] <mathgrad> HI I'm curious about the ubuntu wine package, I seem to get better performance in ubuntu with a game in wine than I do with gentoo and am wondering how to compile in gentoo to achieve parity of perfomance
[05:53] <mathgrad> I have an nvidia 1070 and usually with ubuntu if I install wine and configure it for the game it works awesomely.  HOwever because of other applications I've had to go to gentoo but am not receiving the same performance in wine
[05:53] <coz_> mathgrad, wouldn't the #gentoo channel also be helpful with that?
[05:54] <mathgrad> No one is on that seems to be able to help so was hoping for someone who knew how ubuntu compiles wine so that I might get the same performance
[05:54] <coz_> mathgrad, not sure I can help right now, I am on Fedora
[05:55] <mathgrad> There seems to be a belief that d3d9 is not compatible with nvidia even though it works awesomely on ubuntu
[08:01] <lotuspsychje> i dont really like gnome-shell-extension-workspaces-to-dock and im looking more for the unity style workspaces GUI switcher icon, anyone knows an alternative for that on gnome?
[08:20] <imi> hi I installed ubuntu 19.10 on a usb hdd on a windows 10 machine, and now I'm completely able to boot it from the UEFI (or whatever) boot menu, but I'm not able to boot the hdd directly (which is bad given that that's the whole point: to boot the same system from a different computer)
[08:21] <imi> how do I fix this? how do I make this USB hdd self-bootable?
[08:44] <Monotoko> installed Linux on one drive... going to put a Windows drive back in, is there a way to regenerate the grub config? I remember update-grub but searching for stuff only gets me results from 2012

[09:08] <lenny_lemon> i'm experiencing issue install tor...
[09:09] <xdiff0rke> what kind of issues...? Be more explicit...
[09:09] <lenny_lemon> after launching new window it wants to download itself and after fail on verify and over and over again...
[09:09] <lenny_lemon> ubuntu 18.04
[09:10] <xdiff0rke> are you downloading it from the oficial site?
[09:10] <lenny_lemon> signature verification failed! error code:generic_verify_fail
[09:11] <lenny_lemon> yes I follow the guide
[09:11] <lenny_lemon> https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-install-tor-browser-on-ubuntu-18-04/
[09:14] <lotuspsychje> torbrowser-launcher is on the ubuntu repos
[09:14] <lenny_lemon> so can i install it by sudo apt-get install torbrowser ?
[09:14] <lenny_lemon> or torbrowser-launcher
[09:15] <lenny_lemon> torbrowser-launcher is already the newest version (0.2.9-2).
[09:18] <lotuspsychje> lenny_lemon: https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-tor-browser-in-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux
[09:19] <lotuspsychje> we always reccomend to use packages from the official ubuntu repos lenny_lemon
[09:20] <lenny_lemon> did I not downloaded from official?
[09:21] <lotuspsychje> lenny_lemon: you tell us?
[09:21] <lenny_lemon> seems to be official to me...
[09:22] <lotuspsychje> lenny_lemon: wich one did you download, the tor ppa, or the ubuntu repo one with apt?
[09:22] <lenny_lemon> as when I try sudo apt install torbrowser-launcher I had it installed...
[09:23] <xdiff0rke> I have not read the article but Tor is one of such things that you really want to download from official source. In your case you use ubuntu which already has an updated tor packagr avaible
[09:23] <xdiff0rke> if not just download it from the official site, chech checksum and install it
[09:24] <lenny_lemon> lotuspsychje, when I had ubuntu 16.04 I did tor ppa as I remember but this one I think repo...
[09:24] <lotuspsychje> lenny_lemon: we dont support external repos really here, so we cant really advice that

[09:26] <lotuspsychje> lenny_lemon: there's a difference between 'official' and the ubuntu way

[10:36] <billyfourfour> hi does anybody know how I might go about installing php7.1 on a Ubuntu 20.04 system I'm testing out? ppa:ondrej/php is not supported yet
[10:43] <N3sh108> Hello!
[10:45] <N3sh108> I am having some weird networking issues and they are driving me crazy... Why would a port, say custom port for SSH, be seen as open but not work when one tries to connect to it?
[10:46] <N3sh108> if it is seen OPEN from outside that means that the port forwarding works, so why would it reject my connection? The connection works in LAN but not with public IP. And all the setup worked before I had some DNS issues that I solved with resolv.conf
[11:08] <badcloud_> I'm trying to create xorg.conf file that will force system wide 2560x1440 resolution when a specific monitor is connected. https://pastebin.com/tCAZ2k0q
[11:09] <badcloud_> Feels like I have a loose end in the xorg.conf file
[11:16] <Ben64> badcloud_: your video card is a monitor?
[11:18] <N3sh108> How is possible that both SSH and non-80 port for Apache2 stops working remotely but works perfectly in LAN and it also seen as OPEN from a portchecker? Makes no sense to me :(
[11:19] <badcloud_> Ben64 Whoops, so I should change the "Option" value in the "Device" section?
[11:19] <Ben64> badcloud_: you should scrap the xorg.conf idea all together
[11:20] <badcloud_> Ben64 What route would you suggest?
[11:20] <Ben64> the system display setting
[11:20] <badcloud_> I need something that will stick for all users
[11:22] <badcloud_> The resolution for specific monitor is too big
[11:23] <Ben64> can you change it with the setting application
[11:23] <badcloud_> Sure
[11:24] <badcloud_> but that works per user
[11:24] <Ben64> then you copy the xml to all users
[11:26] <badcloud_> That sounds good for 10-20 users, this computer is used by a few hundred users
[11:26] <Ben64> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1043337/ubuntu-18-04-login-screen-display-settings/1043627
[11:26] <Ben64> should work
[11:36] <_Sean_> anyone here a grand wizard with preseeds?   Trying to figure out if it is still possible to prompt end-user for hostname during install and I've gone nowhere. Even commenting out the hostname lines as per the little google related results is a no-go
[11:36] <_Sean_> just ends up with hostname == ubuntu
[11:41] <badcloud_> Ben64 Thanks
[11:57] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:10] <badcloud_> Ben64 It worked for a few seconds when logging in with different user, but then changed back to previous resolution
[12:11] <PeGaSuS> does anyone here uses Windows and Ubuntu in dual boot? if yes, did anyone had any issues recently when updating Windows, that it messed up GRUB?
[12:12] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: Windows may have just removed the ubuntu efi entry
[12:13] <PeGaSuS> so, booting from a live USB and using boot repair would be sufficient?
[12:13] <PeGaSuS> s/would/should/
[12:13] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: It can be fixed from Windows if it is UEFI install
[12:14] <PeGaSuS> and why the hell would Windows remove the Ubuntu efi entry?
[12:14] <PeGaSuS> I've never seen an OS so broken -_-
[12:14] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: To fix UEFI, see https://itsfoss.com/no-grub-windows-linux/
[12:17] <PeGaSuS> ehm. my problem is somewhat different. it doesn't boot to any of the OSes
[12:17] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: HP laptop?
[12:18] <PeGaSuS> jeremy31: indeed. but an old one (about 9y old)
[12:18] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: That old may not support EFI, might be legacy boot
[12:19] <PeGaSuS> I'm booting from the live USB and use boot repair
[12:21] <PeGaSuS> thankfully I have always an USB with the latest Ubuntu I've installed in my laptop
[12:22] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: Just a double boot on a single drive?
[12:22] <PeGaSuS> but honestly I still fail to understand why Windows would have messed up the bootloader.
[12:23] <PeGaSuS> jeremy31: yes. two OSes in one disk
[12:23] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: Don't know how Windows managed to mess it up to were Windows wouldn't boot
[12:25] <PeGaSuS> jeremy31: neither do I. that's what I find weird though. but boot-repair is already doing its job ;)
[12:29] <PeGaSuS> now, I'm confused.. I've formatted the HDD using "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=4M status=progress && sync". then I've installed Windows, I've partitioned the disk with Windows Disk Manager. I've installed Ubuntu in the new partition. but now I have 2 Windows and one Ubuntu when I should only have one Windows and one Ubuntu. what's wrong here?
[12:30] <PeGaSuS> oops. I should point out that I'm using Xubuntu -_-
[12:30] <PeGaSuS> probably better to ask there or still covered here?
[12:30] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: 2 Windows entries in Grub?
[12:30] <PeGaSuS> jeremy31: yep
[12:30] <jeremy31> PeGaSuS: Saw that with Win7, I think one entry might be Win Recovery
[12:31] <PeGaSuS> probably some Windows backup (that Windows have done itself while updating?)
[12:31] <PeGaSuS> well, boot-repair didn't show any errors and it's booting normally now
[12:41] <PeGaSuS> oh right. using `fdisk -l` it says /dev/sda3 has type of `Hidden NTFS WinRE`
[12:42] <PeGaSuS> so, you're correct jeremy31. it's the Windows Recovery thing.
[14:11] <Noboru55> hello, please someone can help me? Everytime i copy files to usb pendrive it stucks at the end, after few minutes it finish.... it happens to files like movies and other big files like iso. is there someway to fix it?
[14:13] <badcloud_> Ben64 What I think it did was only change the resolution for lightdm login page but not for the x session resolution
[14:38] <croraf_> Noboru55 yes I noticed that also
[14:38] <croraf_> Like it has a long verification stage at the end
[15:16] <zeroes> I just installed chromium on Ubuntu 18.4. I had an inconvenient experience with opening a Download folder via Chromium. Whenever, I try "Show in folder" I get prompted 'Allow snap "chromium" to open file "/home/username/Downloads"?'. How I can grant the permament permission to open the Download-folder?
[15:17] <zeroes> The moment I click "Show in folder", I expect the folder to appears.
[15:18] <zeroes> Seems like, there is discussion without solution: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1051207/snap-how-to-grant-permament-permission-to-read-folder
[15:24] <ioria> zeroes,  you can remove the snap and install the .deb version
[15:33] <Ignacy> I'm on Ubuntu 19.10. I'm attempting to install wine-staging from winehq ppa. (want to run LoL which requires some latest patches to wine). wine-staging depends on libfaudio0 that is not in Ubuntu main repos. I have another repo containing it, but it's only in the 19.04 (disco) version of the repo. Is there a way to force APT to use disco instead of eoan version of the package? Package hasn't changed.
[15:34] <Ignacy> Is it proper to email maintainers of that repo and ask them to move the package there too?
[15:36] <ioria> Ignacy, have you check this ppa : https://launchpad.net/~cybermax-dexter/+archive/ubuntu/sdl2-backport
[15:36] <ioria> *ed
[15:36] <Ignacy> thanks!
[15:37] <ioria> ok
[15:38] <Ignacy> Do you have any forum post or tutorial that points to the usage of that PPA? Does it support some other dependencies?
[15:38] <Ignacy> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[15:38] <Ignacy>  wine-staging-i386:i386 : Depends: libfaudio0:i386 (>= 19.06.07) but it is not going to be installed
[15:39] <Ignacy> But I've just installed the disco i386 version by hand.
[15:39] <ioria> Ignacy, you don't install disco pkg on eoan
[15:39] <Ignacy> Is there a way to tell apt to point libfaudio0:i386 at the libfaudio0 that I've installed by hand?
[15:39] <Ignacy> ah
[15:40] <Ignacy> That's why the system doesn't see it then.
[15:40] <Ignacy> oh, sorry
[15:40] <Ignacy> I forgot to run apt update after adding the ppa
[15:42] <Ignacy> I've enabled i386 architecture with sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386, tho I still get
[15:42] <Ignacy> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[15:42] <Ignacy>  wine-staging : Depends: wine-staging-i386 (= 4.20~eoan
[15:43] <Ignacy> well, nvm, don't want to take your time on sunday, I'll dig deeper into the internet. I need the i386 version of the packages as the wine libraries that I need are only in x86 version.
[15:45] <ioria> Ignacy, https://www.linuxuprising.com/2019/09/how-to-install-wine-staging-development.html
[15:46] <Ignacy> thanks a lot!
[15:47] <Ignacy> That's exactly the issue I had. I'll try to link this post on stack overflow, since it's what shows on the top of the search for that error
[15:51] <zeroes> ioria: did you mean "sudo apt remove snap" then wget snap.deb from somewhere and install it?
[15:54] <lenny_lemon> after upgrading to ubuntu 18.04 i can't launch steam...
[15:55] <Ignacy> How did You upgrade lenny_lemon?
[15:58] <lenny_lemon> normally, after update it asked me that I can upgrade so i did...
[15:59] <Ignacy> You can either update an existing installation, or do so called nuke&pave installation, and just format the root partition and do a clean new install.
[15:59] <lenny_lemon> that was update existing installation
[15:59] <Ignacy> Did you upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 or did you download an iso with 18.04 and install that?
[15:59] <lenny_lemon> had 16.04
[16:00] <lenny_lemon> sorry upgrade
[16:00] <Ignacy> There is a certain amount of "scruff" that you need to deal when upgrading an existing installation. It might have something to do with that.
[16:00] <lenny_lemon> so it's better to do fresh new install instead right?
[16:01] <Ignacy> Usually. There are tools like for example Aptik, that make it easier. It backs up all your files, repos and config changes. After a clean install you pull all your stuff from backup into a newer version of Ubuntu.
[16:01] <lenny_lemon> will uninstalling steam and installing again sort the issue?
[16:02] <Ignacy> I would try that.
[16:02] <Ignacy> Since steam backs up save games in the cloud, you could even try purging the steam
[16:03] <Ignacy> sudo apt remove --purge steam
[16:03] <Ignacy> To make sure it got rid of old config files and other settings.
[16:04] <lenny_lemon> ooops, i forgot my config... :(((
[16:06] <lenny_lemon> and install it same way as sudo apt install steam ?
[16:12] <zeroes> ioria: need clarification for "install the .deb version". Is it same as "apt install snap"?
[16:12] <ioria> zeroes, have you installed the 'snap' version of chromium ?   'snap list' willtell
[16:19] <badcloud_> Is there a config file which supersedes ~/.config/monitors.xml? I'm running 14.04 with lightdm
[16:20] <SimonNL> someone forgot to read topic
[16:21] <badcloud_> Sorry, will do now
[16:21] <badcloud_> Thanks
[16:26] <zeroes> ioria: "snap list" prints me chromium indeed. So
[16:28] <ioria> zeroes,  but if you run  'apt-cache policy chromium-browser' you'll see that ,on 18.04, that pkg is also in the official repo
[16:28] <zeroes> ioria: I installed chromium via Ubuntu Software, so is "apt install package" recommended way? :/
[16:29] <ioria> zeroes, in few words, there are 2 versions of the same app ; you installed the snap version
[16:30] <Ignacy> http://www.linuxandubuntu.com/home/snap-vs-deb-package
[16:37] <lenny_lemon> Ignacy, I have reinstalled and it works now, actually it launches. I'm trying to search for any folder of steam but I cannot find any. what is the best way to find cfg file for counter strike 1.6, how can I search for it?
[16:37] <Ignacy> it's possible it got removed while you uninstalled steam
[16:37] <Ignacy> but you can try to `find` it
[16:38] <lenny_lemon> no I have it, but I mean for any files of freshly installed steam...
[16:38] <Ignacy> find / ! -readable -prune -o -name "*.cfg" -print
[16:39] <Ignacy> or if you know where in / it could be, and you are not searching in / but in directory you have access to than cd into that dir and do `find . -type f -name "*.cfg" -print
[16:40] <lenny_lemon> that's the thing I have no idea where I can find it under / ... will try... thank you
[16:42] <zeroes> thank you ioria and Ignacy. Reinstalling chromium-browser with apt solved. Though I don't quiet understand why deb-version didn't ask permision to open. I can only guess that line 182 ( https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/blob/6c5dd2b3a925ec78264ba5c965545ca4f44da8d3/userd/launcher.go#L182 ) code got executed in deb-version
[16:44] <Ignacy> lenny_lemon, I'm going out, ask here if you need help running a modified version of the find command.
[16:45] <Ignacy> eventually use man find for help
[16:45] <g105b> Since I've reinstalled, a couple of keyboard shortcuts are not working in my IDE.

[16:46] <lenny_lemon> Ignacy, will do, thanks for help... i'm digging now... I think I'll got it...

[19:33] <Guest_7018> Hello, I've noticed something strange when trying to install Eoan Ermine from a USB Stick
[19:34] <pedrud> Any font that has an icon or symbol will not render.
[19:34] <pedrud> Any help is appreciated.
[19:35] <albech> how do i get rclone to ignore lost+found? If lost+found is present a sync fails every time unless root.
[19:35] <Guest_7018> ...Booting from the stick, Ubuntu recognizes my GPU and Wifi, and so it connects and displays at 1080p.  But after installing, I have to tether from my phone, and it'll only display at 800 by 600, even after updating the drivers.
[19:36] <ncuxo> PeGaSuS: https://www.vps.net/community/knowledgebase/display/VP/How+to+setup+dedicated+IP+on+a+vps
[19:37] <pedrud> I've been searching all over for font rendering problems and not found anything recent
[19:38] <akk> pedrud: In what app? What are some example characters? You might just need to install a fallback font that has those characters.
[19:42] <pedrud> akk: Well I have almost 600 fonts installed
[19:44] <pedrud> akk: Anything that is a symbol or icon only shows up as the box with unicode id inside
[19:44] <pedrud> akk: any app at this point, including Gnome-fonts
[19:45] <PeGaSuS> ncuxo: I can't connect to that URL
[19:46] <pedrud> regular fonts display correctly, including non-english characters. it's just icons and symbols.
[19:47] <jeremy31> Guest_7018: Why do you have to tether to a phone after install?
[19:47] <Guest_7018> Oh, because it doesn't recognize my USB Wifi device
[19:48] <akk> pedrud: Do you have the noto fonts installed? aptitude search fonts-noto -- adding those got me a lot of the characters that weren't rendering for me in IRC (emojis and such)
[19:48] <akk> though I still occasionally, rarely, see something not render.
[19:48] <pedrud> akk: yes, all of the noto fonts.
[19:50] <jeremy31> Guest_7018: Open terminal and post URL for this command with USB wifi plugged in>  lsusb | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:50] <pedrud> examples of ones that won't render include (but aren't limited to): typicons, microns, materialicons, fontawesome
[19:50] <PeGaSuS> probably some emoji font needed?
[19:51] <pedrud> I have ttf, svg, woff, and woff2 installed
[19:51] <PeGaSuS> like fonts-emojione? but this is a wild guess since I'm pretty much null in dealing with linux
[19:51] <Guest_7018> the strange thing is that the little peek at 19.10 on the usb stick works better out of the box than the full install does
[19:52] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: haha, that's one that I don't have installed
[19:53] <PeGaSuS> pedrud: keep in mind that I'm just throwing an wild guess
[19:54] <pedrud> i hear you, thx
[19:55] <Guest_7018> jeremy31 I just did a full wipe of the OS drive and reinstalled windows so I could dual-boot.  I'll be back in a long while to report on that :D
[19:55] <zorcon> Hi All, new here - I am trying to boot Ubuntu 18.04 or 19.10 on a new machine, but it hangs on an ACPI error before booting. I tried setting acpi=off and it boots (with drawbacks). I tried setting acpi=ht and it has the same error as before. How can I debug further?
[19:56] <akk> I've never even heard of those things you say don't render. Seeing emoji was a big step for me. :)
[19:56] <pedrud> zorcon: what other settings do you have in your bios?
[19:56] <akk> (but I'm sure there's some font you can install that has them)
[19:57] <pedrud> akk: thanks.
[19:57] <pedrud> akk: those are all fonts
[19:59] <akk> pedrud: I would recommend finding a couple of the most common symbols that don't render, then googling those (with OR) plus font ubuntu OR linux.
[19:59] <akk> pedrud: It's hard to answer "lots of symbols don't render" but if there are some specific and common ones that don't, probably someone else has figured out what font is needed.
[20:00] <pedrud> akk: I can appreciate that.
[20:00] <jeremy31> Guest_7018: are you using the USB wifi now in Windows?
[20:00] <zorcon> Motherboard is ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (WI-FI). Tried an earlier bios version as well as the latest. I searched for ACPI settings with minimal results. APM also had minimal results
[20:00] <Guest_7018> yeah
[20:00] <pedrud> akk: The odd thing is that those are all font files.
[20:01] <pedrud> akk: I'm guessing you've heard of Dingbats?
[20:01] <jeremy31> Guest_7018: somewhere in control panel/device manager you can get to the properties of the wifi device and one of the tabs should show you the Hardware ID of the device
[20:02] <pedrud> jeremy31: Guest_7018: you should also be able to see it in the BIOS settings
[20:02] <akk> pedrud: I have, but that's a specific font, isn't it?
[20:02] <pedrud> Apologies.
[20:02] <pedrud> akk: Yes, it is a specific font.
[20:03] <pedrud> akk: here is an example of one font https://github.com/google/material-design-icons/tree/master/iconfont
[20:05] <pedrud> I have most of those loaded and none of them render. As you can see, there are truetype, embedded opentype, web open font (& 2), and svg
[20:06] <akk> pedrud: I'm not sure enumerating fonts that don't work is going to solve your problem, unless you're sure that the fonts you have include the characters you're after and are still not rendering.
[20:06] <pedrud> one of them should render something.
[20:06] <akk> pedrud: For instance, paste one of the non-rendering characters here, let's see if people here can see it.
[20:06] <pedrud> akk: I see your point. Just a second.
[20:08] <Guest_7018> D-Link DWA 171 dual band adapter, I think that's the one
[20:09] <jeremy31> Guest_7018: see https://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/04/sln121527/how-to-find-drivers-for-devices-using-a-hardware-id?lang=en
[20:09] <pedrud> ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
[20:09] <pedrud> abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
[20:09] <pedrud> 123
[20:09] <pedrud> that wasn't supposed to happen - haha
[20:11] <Guest_7018> ah, okay.  USB\VID_2001&PID_3314&REV_0200
[20:12] <akk> pedrud: Those all rendered fine. :)
[20:12] <jeremy31> Guest_7018:https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux should work good for it in Ubuntu
[20:13] <pedrud> akk: ;) I see that
[20:14] <pedrud> So I can get them to render in my terminal/irc and in vscode
[20:14] <pedrud> I just tried that last one
[20:15] <pedrud> yet they don't show in gnome-fonts
[20:15] <pedrud> I'm using them to change some icons in my toolbar but they are just rendering as an empty space there
[20:15] <Guest_7018> allright thanks!  I'll report back here once I've got the dual boot all set up again.
[20:16] <akk> pedrud: In that case, better google on the symbols that don't work plus the app name, gnome-fonts or the window manager/desktop, plus maybe titlebar
[20:17] <akk> since it seems it's not a general problem, just certain apps
[20:17] <oerheks> some fots and icon themes get activated after logout/login
[20:17] <pedrud> akk: thanks. I had been doing that and not getting very far and came here.
[20:18] <pedrud> oerheks: thanks. done that multiple times.
[20:18] <pedrud> I'm quite familiar with fonts and have rarely had problems with them in Xubuntu. Just started trying Gnome after all the new changes of recent and now having problems.
[20:19] <PeGaSuS> so, I've tried to find a decent tutorial in how to give a specific IP to a specific user inside a Ubuntu VPS, but I'm still stuck
[20:19] <PeGaSuS> :/
[20:21] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: are you trying to do that within the VPS or from outside?
[20:21] <pedrud> what about IPTables?
[20:22] <PeGaSuS> pedrud: within the VPS. let's say that I want to give a few "shell accounts" to some friends. but I'd like them to have a specific IP assigned (in this case only IPv6)
[20:24] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: a three second search brought this up. https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-to-use-iptables-with-multiple-source-destination-ips-addresses/
[20:24] <pedrud> Is that the idea you are thinking of?
[20:27] <PeGaSuS> not really. I want any user to be able to receive data from any IP but the outgoing connections to be bound to a specific IP (if this is more clear)
[20:29] <PeGaSuS> so, any process launched by said user will always use IP xxxx:xxxx:xxxx to connect to the outside
[20:30] <ioria> PeGaSuS, yuo can look at 'network namespace' , dut not idk much about it
[20:34] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: Why don't you just set up a VPN like WireGuard?
[20:35] <pedrud> https://www.wireguard.com/
[20:35] <pedrud> You can have multiple users connect to the same VPS from where ever they are.
[20:39] <PeGaSuS> pedrud: currently I have like 150 IPv6 addresses configured in netplan. my idea is to do: 'adduser USERNAME' and then limit that user to only use 1234:5678:9012::1/64 for outgoing connections (IRC, etc)
[20:39] <PeGaSuS> my problem is not the incoming but the outgoing traffic
[20:41] <PeGaSuS> ioria: thanks for the tip. I'll take a better look at that, but it seems quite complex
[20:42] <ioria> PeGaSuS, yuo can look at 'network namespace' , dut not idk much about it
[20:42] <ioria> PeGaSuS, sy, https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/391295/how-can-you-assign-one-ip-per-user/391297
[20:43] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: I think what you are asking is likely rather complex.
[20:44] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: In some ways it seems a bit like an internal network. Just follow me here.
[20:44] <rana_ans> hi when I catkin_make I get this error and Im unable to find any solutions online: https://pastebin.com/13rtvwpn
[20:46] <pedrud> As an example (if I understand you): Say you have an office with 10 computers (like your 150 friends) who all want access the web
[20:46] <PeGaSuS> yes. exactly that
[20:47] <pedrud> You can use a router with DHCP set for each computer to have a specific internal IP address
[20:47] <pedrud> DHCP can set it to happen automatically or you can manually assign IPs
[20:48] <pedrud> and that can be associated to a specific computer with a specific name.
[20:48] <rana_ans> anyone who can help me?
[20:48] <pedrud> Is that the idea that you are trying to do?
[20:49] <oerheks> rana_ans, catkin is available in our repos https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=catkin and as snap
[20:49] <rana_ans> when I catkin_make I get this error and Im unable to find any solutions online: https://pastebin.com/13rtvwpn
[20:49] <rana_ans> lemme see
[20:50] <PeGaSuS> pedrud: in this case i want to assign a static ip addr (ipv6) for said user for outgoing traffic (internal traffic doesnt matter in this case)
[20:50] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: But the office only has one external facing IP (like your VPS)
[20:51] <PeGaSuS> pedrud: mine has 150 IPS (accessible from the outside)
[20:51] <rana_ans> @oerheks: Im new to this, could you tell me what to do?
[20:52] <pedrud> Hold on a sec. Are the 150 IPs coming from the outside?
[20:52] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: Are you trying to restrict access to the VPS to only those 150?
[20:53] <pedrud> Or whatever number you set?
[20:53] <oerheks> rana_ans, i think you better seek help in #ros  here on #freenode,
[20:54] <rana_ans> ok thanks
[20:55] <tds> PeGaSuS: you've got a few options, and a few problems you need to solve - you could run a full separate network stack (ie a netns) per user, or try and persuade source address selection to make specific users use specific addresses and add iptables rules using the uid module to restrict what IP they can send from
[20:56] <PeGaSuS> pedrud: lets say i want to "bind" a user to a specific ip
[20:56] <PeGaSuS> tds: i need something simple, tbh :X
[20:56] <PeGaSuS> i'm pretty dumb
[20:57] <pedrud> tds: that was what I was trying to explain earlier. thx. having a recent concussion has screwed my ability to explain stuff recently.
[20:57] <PeGaSuS> my current netplan config: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/tBY4w9ZdFw/
[20:57] <pedrud> PeGaSuS: I doubt that. However, you are asking something complex.
[20:57] <tds> ugh, assigning addresses like that is horrific
[20:58] <tds> get a subnet routed to you and just anyip bind the entire subnet to lo
[20:59] <PeGaSuS> i dont know if the subnet is routed (i know i own it since the host said so)
[20:59] <pedrud> I agree with tds. Doing it that way is going to quickly become a mess.
[21:00] <PeGaSuS> well. this is how someone told me to assign the IP addresses
[21:02] <pedrud> Sure. No one is saying you did anything wrong. It's just complex. Some ways make it harder and others less so.
[21:03] <PeGaSuS> but this way I can check which IPS I have (and which ones are assigned to a specific BNC user)
[21:33] <ice9> from where to download older live cd's like ubuntu 16.04?
[21:34] <oerheks> here, but not all of them AFAIK .. http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/
[21:57] <ncuxo57> Hello I have a problem with my graphical drivers on ubuntu 19.10
[21:57] <ncuxo57> Its a fresh install
[21:57] <ncuxo57> I didn't have any problems before while using mint
[21:58] <ncuxo57> I've tries installing the nvidia and nouveau drivers but it didn't helped
[21:58] <ncuxo57> My problem is that my icons and clock digits gets on top of each other
[21:59] <ncuxo57> for example the digits on the clock they go on top of each other and after 10 20 min the clock is unreadable
[21:59] <ncuxo57> its the same with the icons in the application menu
[22:00] <jeremy31> ncuxo57: If it worked in Mint, I would recommend Ubuntu 18.04
[22:00] <ncuxo57> LTS?
[22:01] <compdoc> ncuxo57, try a different screen resolution
[22:01] <jeremy31> ncuxo57: Ubuntu 18.04 is LTS.  All Mint versions have been based on Ubuntu LTS since 2014
[22:02] <akk> But if 18.04 works while 19.10 fails, that sounds definitely worth a bug report.
[22:03] <ncuxo57> compdoc didn't helped
[22:03] <ncuxo57> I haven't tough about that
[22:03] <ncuxo57> I have two other systems working just fine with 19.10
[22:03] <ncuxo57> I guess its the graphic card:/
[22:04] <jeremy31> ncuxo57: older Nvidia graphics?
[22:04] <ncuxo57> I have dual display not sure if this is relevant
[22:04] <ncuxo57> geforce 6600 LE
[22:05] <gry> remove the second display and check for the issue
[22:05] <ncuxo57> I've installed the drivers from nvidia and had to reinstall the whole distro
[22:05] <ncuxo57> gry Will try it
[22:05] <gry> do you need that graphics card? go you game or watch blu rays?
[22:07] <ncuxo57> still have the problem
[22:07] <ncuxo57> I will swap it tomorrow its almost 1am here
[22:08] <ncuxo57> I use the graphic card for the double monitor setup
[22:09] <lenny_lemon> any program for downloading YT videos?
[22:10] <ncuxo57> with cli or gui
[22:11] <Ben64> youtube-dl
[22:11] <lenny_lemon> youtube-dl I think is cli, isn't it? maybe I still have it somewhere...
[22:11] <ncuxo57> this is cli program ;D  I wasn't sure if he will manage it
[22:12] <lenny_lemon> followed by url, right?
[22:12] <lenny_lemon> youtube-dl http://www.youtube.......
[22:12] <ncuxo57> https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/blob/master/README.md#readme
[22:12] <bprompt> lenny_lemon:  yes is CLI, you can update it by just -> youtube-dl -U
[22:13] <bprompt> lenny_lemon:  I use it at the shell with CLI, however you could use a frontend like -> https://www.xvideothief.com
[22:14] <bprompt> lenny_lemon:  not trying to call you anything, that's just the name of the frontend =)
[22:15] <bprompt> lenny_lemon:  usually -> youtube-dl -f 18 http://youtube....... -o "the name I prefer for this vide file.mp4"
[22:15] <lenny_lemon> what's the easiest call for downlaod?
[22:15] <lenny_lemon> ah, thanks
[22:15] <ncuxo57> :D
[22:15] <lenny_lemon> mp4 me too...
[22:15] <bprompt> lenny_lemon:  you can check how many formats are available for the file url with -> youtube-dl -F <- -f 18 is for mp4 with audio
[22:17] <bprompt> but videos usually have about 8 choices, bearing in mind that some are just "video" namely you get the muted vide file only, no audio, because the file is streamed separately for those format
[22:17] <Ben64> i just do "youtube-dl -f best <id>"
[22:17] <Ben64> and it picks the best one that has vid and audio
[22:20] <lenny_lemon> nothing works... need to reinstall it...
[22:20] <lenny_lemon> upgraded to ubuntu 18.04 few days ago...
[22:20] <gry> what happened when you tried to use youtube-dl?
[22:21] <bprompt> lenny_lemon:  you mean, ubuntu is not working, or just youtube-dl is not working?

[22:46] <cognition> Hi slightly off topic question, what is the cheapest laptop/chromebook etc that I can use putty with?
[22:46] <lenny_lemon> i will next time... :)
[22:46] <bprompt> lenny_lemon:  now and then, when I have to download a few files, like hmmm say 30 videos or more, I simply make a quick bash file with a bunch of -> youtube-dl -f 18 ....... <--- on each line, so if say I'm getting 50 videos, I have 50 of those lines, make the file executable, run it, youtube-dl gets one file after another after another, I simply check later on when it's done
[22:46] <gry> nice
[22:47] <lenny_lemon> bprompt, automated process, nice...
[22:50] <bprompt> cognition:  doesn't that go with distribution? instead of hardware per se
[22:50] <cognition> bprompt: Thank you
[22:51] <cognition> I will look at alternatives to putty
[22:51] <bprompt> cognition:  now, what' the cheapest mobile desktop  you can find? depends, craighlist has some very viable ones, but that's dependent on location and budget and preference
