[00:00] it is a windows phone file, plain text. [00:00] what program do you use to generate that file? [00:00] What is a PBK file? [00:00] Data file used by the Network Connections utility in Microsoft Windows, which is also referred to as the Remote Access Phonebook; stores saved dial-up connection settings, which include phone numbers, logins, and passwords; can save data for multiple connections. [00:01] sounds like an Outlook address book? [00:01] pbk file is a vpn connection to access a espicial site [00:01] if you want to use it for a VPN connection, one needs to open that file in a text program, and use the info manually [00:01] https://askubuntu.com/questions/65040/setting-up-vpn-connection-only-pbk-file-windows-available === anon is now known as Guest27941 [00:02] oerheks to the rescue :) [00:02] or get a linux version from that VPN provider? [00:02] .ovpn or something [00:02] yea, that's OpenVPN file extension [00:03] no i dont want vpn i set it to connect a especial site is ssat.ir [00:04] the site is www.sset.ir [00:05] this site just open with his pbk connection [00:06] it is all the info i have. [00:06] sorry, I can't help with pbk files [00:06] hmm, are you sure that the pbk thing isn't actually creating a VPN for you on windows? I can't get to that site myself.. [00:10] pbk connections can use for vpn but you can set it to access sites for security reasons [00:11] this sites have private pbk to access it [00:11] it is just a phone number, site rl, user name, password? [00:11] did you open it in a texteditor? [00:14] yes anyone have user and pass . yes i open it buy text editor but 4 and 5 pages full of code [00:19] readable code or binary? [00:20] readable [00:23] I search the net but i can't solve this problem. not important.im use windows for it [00:23] but I have one question [00:25] Hi. What is the default version of gcc on ubuntu LTS at the moment? [00:25] my laptop Dell 5010 core i3 is very hot with ubuntu and CPU all the time is 100 [00:26] `echo 1024 | sudo tee sysctl.conf` is crazy, right? -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM%20-%20Using%20Hugepages [00:26] Aleric, easy t find on launchpad [00:26] https://launchpad.net/gcc/+packages [00:27] heh, is it easy? :) [00:27] it takes me forever to find it, even with a local archive mirror handy..

[00:28] nope.. not easy [00:28] I can't find it oerheks [00:28] oh, you gave the url anyway [00:29] That page doesn't load [00:31] So, can someone help me?

I try mint and elementary and all of them have this problem.at the end I install xubuntu and it's ok [00:32] Aleric: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/gcc seems to show 4.7.4.0 . [00:32] That is WAY too old :/ [00:32] Aleric: What are you trying to do? [00:32] I was discussing with a friend whether it was 7 or 8 [00:33] Trying to decide whether or not I want/need to support gcc 7.x for my project. [00:33] friend: Why would you want to support gcc 7.x? Me: that is the default in ubuntu LTS? friend: I thought that was 8. [00:34] I ask here.. and you tell me it's 4.7 [00:34] Aleric: gcc 8 is available in universe. I'm not totally sure that what is provided by the gcc metapackage is the "default". [00:35] Aleric: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/gcc-8 [00:36] 4.7.4.0 = 7.x.y [00:36] Aleric: It seems that the default is 7.4.0, I'm not sure what the 4: is from. [00:37] thanks sarnold .. wireless was not tickets.. hmm I ticked it and set it no change [00:37] Aleric: hopefully useful https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Fc9GZPjHhx/ [00:37] http://www.ducea.com/2006/06/17/ubuntu-package-version-naming-explanation/ [00:38] old but still valid [00:38] Yeah, I just figured that out too... 7.4.0. Which accepts -std=c++17 but doesn't provide std::from_chars :/ [00:43] oerheks: I don't understand how http://www.ducea.com/2006/06/17/ubuntu-package-version-naming-explanation/ explains the 4: in 4:7.4.0-1ubuntu2.3 . [00:44] yes, this 4.- is a mistery too.. [00:44] from upstream above debian? [00:49] Aleric: If you wait one month then the latest LTS release will be using gcc 9 :) [00:49] oh [00:49] *deleted what he was doing* [00:49] deletes* [00:50] Aleric: (Because 20.04 will be released, and thus will be the latest LTS) [00:50] Guess I'll only support compilers that are really C++17 then.

[02:45] Someguy123: that's probably a question for #ubuntu-mirrors -- BUT I suspect this changes way too quickly for it to make sense to try to rsync it all. it's meant to be consumed via simplestreams clients when images are needed [03:01] sarnold: hmm okay, I run a server host, and we also have file servers in the three european countries we operate in, so we like to mirror things that we might use, to save bandwidth [03:01] for cloud-images I couldn't find any mirrors, but at the least cloud-images.ubuntu.com does run rsync, so we can mirror directly from them [03:02] Someguy123: my guess is this would consume vastly more bandwidth than just pulling the images that your users need, when they need them [03:02] Someguy123: it might be worthwhile talking to our certified public cloud team if that is a lot more than I think it is ;) [03:05] sarnold: meh, we mirror a lot of random things :) [03:05] Someguy123: cool :D [03:05] I've limited our mirroring at least [03:05] e.g. no powerpc / armhf / s890x images etc. [03:05] Someguy123: that reminds me of many happy hours on sunsite or wustl back in the day...

[05:02] well you didn't really give enough information and only waited 17 seconds [05:02] heh, sorry [05:04] im used to msdos partitioning, but someone advised me to go GPT with this new ssd. Then it had bad partition error after i installed. I realized that I don't really know how to setup GPT, so I'm trying to get ubuntu to do it for me. I have 2 partitions of data that I was hoping to save and want to use the rest of the space for xubuntu 18.04. But, it only offers to wipe everything.

[07:39] while trying to install Ubuntu 18.04 from a live USB (the system was previously Windows and I opted to erase Windows) I encountered the issue described in this (https://askubuntu.com/questions/771899/pcie-bus-error-severity-corrected) post. As instructed in that post, I inserted the line "pci=noaer" into the GRUB and managed to finally install [07:39] Ubuntu. The issue is that it only allowed me install it in OEM installation mode. I would really like to have a traditional install route, and understand what exactly was initially causing me this install issue. Is there anything I can do now that I have installed Ubuntu on my system (albeit in OEM mode) to reverse engineer what was causing the [07:39] issues in the first place, that would then allow me to fix the installation issues and install Ubuntu normally ?

[14:57] oerheks: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/BbTm2wvwdz/ [14:58] each of the ones that failed got a new INRELEASE file today [14:58] ajm5700, maybe your mirror is in sync now; try again in a minute, if that does not fix,.. [14:58] sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists && sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PackageManagerTroubleshootingProcedure [15:00] this is a docker container pulled this morning, there is nothing actually in the lists folder to remove [15:01] oh docker, for that i have no clue .. [15:01] ajm5700: You will have to check with the docker maintainer... those images are customized and the volunteers here do not know where the documentation for those images are. They are usually developed by 3rd parties with no direction to Ubuntu or Canonical community [15:02] this is ubuntu:18.04 which is maintained by Canonical [15:03] yes, it is ubuntu, but not a canonical docker vm? [15:03] ajm5700: Canonical does not produce any docker images... they provide premade cloud images that can be made into docker images [15:05] and to make the cloud instances into docker, requires customization. Again, there is no published documentation, the volunteers here rely on the official documentation from Canonical to provide support. Without that, we don't know what is going on in that instance === deepend_ is now known as depepend === depepend is now known as deepend [15:16] i'm using a 4k tv as a monitor. is there a way to prevent some apps from opening maximized across the entire screen? [15:17] every time i open a spreadsheet in libreoffice it covers the entire screen [15:31] eindoofus: I think libreoffice remembers how it was opened from the last time... try opening it directly (not via a document/file) un-maximizing it, closing it, then open again directly [15:34] hey guys, i have an ubuntu 12.04 running on a VM that i want to upgrade, what is the best way to do that? [15:35] g0tcha: it will be faster to install 18.04 or 19.10 directly than to upgrade. [15:35] pragmaticenigma, i have a webserver and other web services running on it [15:35] !eol | g0tcha otherwise follow the instructions in the link: [15:35] g0tcha otherwise follow the instructions in the link:: End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [15:36] g0tcha: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades ... and good luck [15:36] pragmaticenigma, your 'good luck' doesnt sound very assuring hehehe [15:37] g0tcha: It's not... there have been significant architecture changes through Ubuntu since 12.94 [15:38] i was afraid of that [15:38] maybe i should look up on how to migrate apache etc from an older version to a new server install [15:40] g0tcha: if it were me... i would start up a fresh 18.04 and migrate stuff over. Apache specifically has a lot of changes (especially in directory permissions settings) ... there is legacy support, but you will be better off taking the migration approach rather than the upgrade approach [15:42] pragmaticenigma, yeah, i might have to do that [15:42] thanks [15:50] hi. in which directory does ubuntu store the default desktop background images? [15:56] imi: /usr/share/background [15:56] imi: * /usr/share/backgrounds === akem_ is now known as akem === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon === z4kst4r1 is now known as z4kst4r [17:02] Hello [17:02] I'm trying to make a custom Ubuntu ISO that can be installed. How do I go about doing that? [17:04] jvwjgames, there is cubic, https://askubuntu.com/questions/741753/how-to-use-cubic-to-create-a-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-image [17:04] but this channel is not about help to make your own ubuntu mission, good luck! [17:06] Ok thanks I have tried cubic [17:15] Is it a way to change to IEC prefixes instead of SI prefixes in Ubuntu? [17:46] halvors: is this useful https://github.com/HenrikBengtsson/Wishlist-for-R/issues/6 === anon is now known as Guest77594 [17:51] MonkeyDust: I was thinking more of changeing unit in Nautilus. [17:52] not the first time I've seen that question... and the rabit holes I've gone down... the units are hard coded by the Gnome team... there isn't a way to change them [17:52] *there isn't an easy way to change them [17:55] pragmaticenigma: thx :) [17:55] so not a ubuntu issue. [17:56] how do you execute a shell script on double click? [17:58] halvors: It could be proposed as a feature on launchpad, but Ubuntu tends to focus on the majority not smaller edge cases [17:59] CoolerX: start here https://askubuntu.com/questions/64222/how-can-i-create-launchers-on-my-desktop [18:01] MonkeyDust, command not found [18:02] I am on ubuntu 18.04, I get "command not found" when I do alt + f2 and then type gnome-desktop-item-edit --create-new ~/Desktop [18:03] I guess it isn't gnome desktop anymore? [18:03] CoolerX: it is gnome desktop, but those instructions are very old [18:03] the original post was 8 years ago [18:04] pragmaticenigma, "very old" anyone remember when the world was going to end in 2012? [18:04] CoolerX: "sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gnome-panel" will enable the command [18:05] CoolerX: I'm not a fan of this site, but in this case it seems to have a pretty accurate tutorial: https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-create-desktop-shortcut-launcher-on-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux [18:06] pragmaticenigma, that installed but [18:06] now when I run the command it does nothing [18:15] pragmaticenigma, I don't have an icon [18:16] the file is just an executable I downloaded [18:17] pragmaticenigma, I think the executable might have an icon embedded inside it [18:21] I don't know anything about selecting the icons... I know you can click the icon in the configuration tool to change it to something else. if the executable has one embedded you might be able to select the executable and see if the tool can automatically extract out the icon. otherwise, I think it will default to a collection of available icons that hopefully suit your needs [18:27] thanks [18:32] va [18:35] Client: HexChat 2.14.2 • OS: Ubuntu "eoan" 19.10 • CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3337U CPU @ 1.80GHz (2.53GHz) • Memory: Physical: 5.5 GiB Total (3.1 GiB Free) Swap: 5.6 GiB Total (5.4 GiB Free) • Storage: 318.0 GB / 486.8 GB (168.8 GB Free) • VGA: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller @ Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor DRAM Controller • Uptime: 1d 4h 47m 1 [18:35] 8s [18:41] hi there. I wonder what patches are applied to stterm package for building. Where could I have a look to check it? [18:44] elge: the 'easy' way to get it is to duplicate your 'deb' lines in /etc/apt/sources.list* files, adding matching deb-src lines; then you can run apt source stterm [18:44] elge: you can grab the files from launchpad, too https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stterm/0.8.2-1 [18:49] sarnold, thanks === Aleksander is now known as alxd [18:53] So now when I unlock my screen I get an "Authentication Required" dialog in the top left that cannot be moved or dismissed. It says authentication is required to run gvfsd-admin daemon. [18:55] Weirdly, I can "click through" the dialog and access GUI elements behind it. [18:55] This is on 19.10 [18:57] jonvonb: what release? [19:00] jonvonb: I have that too, for gvfs... I simply use 'anonymous' and it works for the exteran hdd... the ssd requires a password however [19:00] hey all, i have a really weird problem, my 18.04 stopped recognizing a lot of my installed programs that were working perfectly fine till this afternoon :O , last thing i remember doing was installing the chrome-gnome-shell [19:00] I noticed some updates available. Gonna apply those and reboot first to see what happens. [19:00] doing stuff like which firefox returns nothing! [19:00] anyone experienced something similar ? [19:01] This is new behavior. Been on 19.10 since the week it was released [19:10] Anyone know how to boot Ubuntu 19.10 into text mode? I made the mistake of installing the Ubuntu nvidia driver, so it now can't boot to the gui [19:10] the old grub 'e' method no longer works [19:12] Smashcat_: The recovery console from grub's boot menu exist for reasons like this. [19:13] It used to, yeah :) [19:14] Smashcat_: Under "advanced" there are no recovery kernels ? [19:15] No. After hitting ESC to get into grub, it now just shows "grub>" and waits for a command. [19:15] Meh, I'll just reinstall :) [19:16] How can I set a binary as ExecStart in systemd? [19:17] mlokpc, just point to it's absolute path. [19:17] It probably needs to be executable [19:18] lordcirth: thanks [19:19] anyone on my issue? I'm really clueless... [19:20] noob_on_rails: check /var/log/dpkg.log* files to see what changed recently [19:20] noob_on_rails: perhaps you accidentically uninstalled a bunch of important things [19:21] sarnold: hmmm, pff maybe you're right cause i was messing with openssl trying to figure out something [19:21] let's see [19:21] heh yeah, people trying to replace openssl for whatever reason is a common cause of busting things pretty badly [19:22] installed mysql-server-5.7 package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 [19:23] I'm trying to install mysql server but it's not working [19:24] relipse2: pastebin for the channel ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; dpkg -l mysql-server-5.7 ' .
