johnfgI looked at preferences, but didn't see that choice (maybe i missed it?).01:08
sarnoldmany X applications let you give them parameters like -geometry 800x800+0+0 to stuff it at specific size and place01:11

friendlyguystill fighting with that vm...: ran out of space on /boot, cleaned old kernels manually from /boot, did a apt --fix-broken which went through nicely. after that i ran an upgrade and watched it fill up boot with very old kernels again09:35
friendlyguyits 18.04.4 lts... but has been dist upgraded several times09:36
friendlyguyi saw it try to download even a 3.13 kernel09:37
friendlyguylordievader: are you around by any luck? :) you did help me a lot yesterday09:38
tomreyn3.13 is not available on ubuntu 18.04 LTS for sure. unless you installed it from elsewhere or an ubuntu release upgrade faield in the middle, or you're working on a container and don't actually manage your kernel.10:17
tomreynfriendlyguy: ^10:17
friendlyguyhi there! well, its not a container. its a vm10:18
tomreynthis gathers some basic info on apt:  sudo /bin/true && cat &>/tmp/aptlog < <(sudo apt-get -y update 2>&1; apt-cache policy 2>&1; sudo apt-get -syV full-upgrade 2>&1;); nc termbin.com 9999 </tmp/aptlog && rm /tmp/aptlog10:18
tomreynadd this for basic OS info: nc termbin.com 9999 < <(lsb_release -ds;cat /proc/{version,cmdline};echo "Session: $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP ($XDG_SESSION_TYPE)";echo Shell: $SHELL)10:18

dsofeirHello, I am trying to get the ubuntu 18.04 cloud image to run on KVM on CentOS 7 and having no luck. I can resize the image, setup the cloud-init iso and start the VM however the console does not work and the machine does not get an IP address via DHCP.10:37
friendlyguytomreyn: currently trying that11:00
friendlyguyi removed all non 76 kernels and files from boot (deleted from filesystem), but once i run a purge it fills them up right away again11:01
tomreynfriendlyguy: i don't think dpkg -P would fill up /boot if that's what you're saying11:03
dsofeirCould anyone help me? I am trying to get the ubuntu 18.04 cloud image to run on KVM on CentOS 7 and having no luck. I can resize the image, setup the cloud-init iso and start the VM however the console does not work and the machine does not get an IP address via DHCP.11:05
friendlyguyi did a apt purge for the linux-cloud-tools11:07
friendlyguy(the xenial ones)11:07
friendlyguyhttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bkKTvGFGDx/11:08
tomreyndsofeir: does DHCP work with other VMs? by "console", do you mean VGA console or serial console?11:13
tomreynfriendlyguy: right, apt purge ia not dpkg --purge11:14
dsofeirtomreyn: Yes, DHCP works when I use a CentOS cloud image in the same Ansible playbook. I mean serial console11:14
tomreyndsofeir: i don't really know about how the cloud images are configured or setup but unless it's said anywhere that a serial console will work out of the box i wouldn't expect that to be the case11:16
dsofeirtomreyn: fair enough. Although the machine not getting any address via DHCP makes no sense. Do the cloud images still use cloud-init11:19
tomreyndsofeir: i don't really know, have never used those.11:22
tomreynmy guess is "yes"11:22
