| ^amra | When do I run the Docker with some container is taht resources for a system is more spent? | 00:45 |
|---|---|---|
| ^amra | I have the OpenProject docker container, and try to understand if I run it troigh Docker or just on Ubuntu system wo docker, what the difference it would be? | 00:46 |
| sarnold | ^amra: when run in docker, the application will use its own version of all necessary libraries | 00:52 |
| sarnold | ^amra: normally when running a program, common libraries will be shared among all the other programs using the same libraries | 00:53 |
| sarnold | ^amra: eg the "SHR" column in top or htop shows how much space could be shared among multiple processes | 00:53 |
| ^amra | sarnold: and does it mean that mem and ssd usage will be higher? | 00:53 |
| ^amra | Right? | 00:54 |
| sarnold | ^amra: (the smem tool does a better job of showing how much of this shared space is actrually shared, but smem isn't as easy or familiar as top or htop) | 00:54 |
| sarnold | ^amra: yes | 00:54 |
| ^amra | Thank you very much | 00:54 |
| sarnold | ^amra: but, some things like go applications are statically linked, and it won't make a huge difference either way | 00:54 |
| ^amra | Ok | 00:55 |
| ^amra | I do the choice | 00:55 |
| sarnold | so, really, it depends, but memory use of containerized things is usually highre than 'normal' things | 00:55 |
| parak0vsky | hi I made this wired connection modification now I want to revert it so I can connect trough wire to the internet that not required pppoe https://bhanu.io/creating-a-ppoe-connection-in-ubuntu-18-04-onwards-d4e2410aa707 | 01:14 |
| parak0vsky | what I should do? | 01:14 |
| sarnold | parak0vsky: wild guess -- try nmcli con modify “Desired Name of connection” connect.autoconnect=off | 01:19 |
| === skookum6 is now known as skookum | ||
| parak0vsky | i forgot the connection name | 01:21 |
| parak0vsky | ah I think I can see that | 01:21 |
| sarnold | nmcli con show will show them | 01:22 |
| parak0vsky | Error: value for 'connect.autoconnect=off' is missing. | 01:23 |
| sarnold | hah, then I guessed wrong; try replacing the = with a space -- so nmcli con modify “Desired Name of connection” connect.autoconnect off | 01:24 |
| parak0vsky | ok done | 01:24 |
| parak0vsky | lets see | 01:24 |
| parak0vsky | i don't think it works | 01:25 |
| parak0vsky | I plugged the cable but led no flashing or flashin very infrequently | 01:25 |
| parak0vsky | which I guess indicates that no data has been transmitted | 01:26 |
| sarnold | I think the autoconnect setting only determins if this connection is started automatically (which was what that blog post was about) | 01:27 |
| === skookum3 is now known as skookum | ||
| sarnold | parak0vsky: maybe make a new connection that's using ethernet or whatever type is appropriate for this device? | 01:27 |
| parak0vsky | nah in ubuntu 18 you can't just create pppoe authorization from gui apparently | 01:28 |
| parak0vsky | i have created it sarnold | 01:28 |
| parak0vsky | ok it works now | 01:28 |
| parak0vsky | apparently cable was not inserted full or something | 01:29 |
| sarnold | parak0vsky: yay :) | 01:31 |
| sarnold | parak0vsky: funny, I always thought network-manager gui would let you do that :/ afterall pppoe is (was?) required for a *lot* of people for a long time | 01:32 |

| jwash | if i were to buy 3 identical drives and want to set them up so they all wrote data redundantly with mdadm in raid 1. is it possible to shut the machine down, then pull the drives in a cage and put it in another server, and read the data? | 03:55 |
| lordcirth | jwash, yes, any machine with a new enough version of mdadm would be able to read the array. | 04:06 |
| jwash | so i'd load it in the new machine as an array of 1? | 04:08 |
| lordcirth | Oh, you mean splitting the array between two machines? | 04:12 |
| lordcirth | You would have to import it has a degraded array | 04:12 |
| jwash | yep | 04:18 |
| jwash | then add another disk so it could rebuild | 04:18 |
| jwash | is there a way to mount it read only? | 04:18 |
| lordcirth | jwash, you could mount the filesystem on it read only; or with mdadm --readonly | 04:20 |

| k_sze | ducasse, not really. I'm playing some 44.1 kHz, 32-bit FLAC from VLC and my DAC still says only 24-bit. | 07:16 |
| ducasse | vuurdraak: can 't you move it by holding alt and dragging it? | 07:20 |

| vuurdraak | its like its bonded together, im currently going through all gnome tweak tool settings, i cant find anything wwhle searching online, i get anwsers for how to dual boot with windows :'D | 07:22 |
| vuurdraak | it is doing this with all popup/setting windows of every program, its highly enoying | 07:23 |

| Ben64 | So I've had this problem for a while now, my audio input is going too quickly, everything sounds chipmunky and stuttery | 08:43 |
| Ben64 | Absolutely no idea where to start on diagnosis, but on a fresh boot it works fine, then switches for some reason and I haven't been able to reset and get it working without a reboot. Not much of an audio guy. Any suggestions would be appreciated | 08:44 |
| vuurdraak | Ben64 i have also sometimes mistery problems with recording/audio input, that in some misterious way audacity is replaying recorded audio at halve speed, no idea why to be honest, fiddleing arund with both alsamixer (CLI) and Pulso Audio Volume Control (GUI Pavu mixer) seems to to solve it although i have no clue what i have fixed | 08:50 |
| Ben64 | i haven't been able to fix it besides reboot so far | 08:52 |
| Ben64 | but it's very strange | 08:52 |
| vuurdraak | https://askubuntu.com/questions/50067/howto-save-alsamixer-settings | 08:53 |
| vuurdraak | PulseAudio Volume Control is a very usefull sound mixer utility, and also needed if you want to switch between HDMI sounds for a source to your tv and the sound card for instance, i use it as my main volume/sound mixer | 08:55 |
| vuurdraak | it can ste all kind of things for pulse audio | 08:57 |
| vuurdraak | set* | 08:57 |
| Ben64 | right, but that doesn't change the timing of recording | 08:57 |
| vuurdraak | well you are saying stuff works after boot and then it stops working, so maybe some setting is altered that can be fixed | 08:58 |
| vuurdraak | or maybe you can see other input sources, and you find out in pavu that your using the worng input source | 08:59 |
| Ben64 | there's no setting for this | 08:59 |
| Ben64 | there's no chipmunk mode engaged checkbox or anything, it's like the system is reading from the buffer 10x the normal rate | 08:59 |
| vuurdraak | chipmunk mode engage check box lol :D | 09:00 |
| vuurdraak | no put maybe you can try a different input source, as on my soundcard i used the wrong port first physicaly for the mic | 09:00 |
| vuurdraak | but* | 09:00 |
| vuurdraak | like line versus mic port | 09:00 |

| vuurdraak | Ben64 interesting, now that i read through it, i think I have solved a similar issue , by fiddeling with the recording sample rate in the audicity recording settings as this kind of stuff is not just ryzen chipset only necesairily | 09:38 |
| teasd | First thing that would be interesting... is that a dpkg error or an error from that package? If it's not dpkg, I might be wrong here | 09:38 |
| vuurdraak | but i did not have a 10x speed difference there was like a 2x pseed difference at some point in time | 09:39 |
| Ben64 | probably something different with a similar result | 09:41 |
| vuurdraak | yeh | 09:41 |
| vuurdraak | teasd , it looks like it doesn't want to upgrade, maybe you can remove the old package and then start fresh with the different type of package ? | 09:43 |
| vuurdraak | it says u used an rpm to install the first version (redhat package manager) | 09:44 |
| vuurdraak | and now ur usinf deb (debian) | 09:44 |
| vuurdraak | different style of package | 09:44 |
| teasd | Yeah... how the hell is it even possible to install rpm's on debian/ubuntu? I didn't even know... | 09:46 |
| vuurdraak | u can , i use alien to install rpm packages | 09:47 |
| teasd | vuurdraak, it isn't being listed in dpkg, so I don't seem to be able to uninstall it | 09:47 |
| vuurdraak | some programs dont have a .deb package and only rpm, and then u have to | 09:47 |
| teasd | Yeah, alien isn't installed either, that's what I thought... I have no idea how the previous admins got this on there.... | 09:47 |
| vuurdraak | it should be removable with apt-get regardless, at least when it was installed with alien it does | 09:48 |
| vuurdraak | or with synaptic | 09:48 |
| teasd | `apt-get remove managesoft` tells me it isn't installed. `apt list --installed | grep manage` also doesn't show anything... dpkg -l neither... | 09:50 |
| teasd | I'm so confused... | 09:50 |
| vuurdraak | maybe you can find it with synaptic ? | 09:51 |
| teasd | They're headless :/ | 09:51 |
| vuurdraak | or the other way around can't you find an rpm package instead of a deb :') | 09:52 |

| raddy | Setting up the environment using docker is the recommended way ? | 09:59 |
| raddy | Or shall I install ubuntu for windows and set it up in it ? | 09:59 |
| vuurdraak | you can always also run ubuntu from a live usb without installing it for testing perposes | 09:59 |
| vuurdraak | purposes* | 10:00 |
| JimBuntu | raddy: this really isn't the right place to get generic installation support for kubernetes nor the right channel for WSL support either. You might do better in one of the more generic Linux channels | 10:02 |
| raddy | vuurdraak: But I cannot multi-task in the live usb as well as the changes may not be preserved, would it be ? | 10:02 |
| vuurdraak | ah yeh true, if you want it to be persistent, it might be better to install ubuntu somewhere | 10:03 |
| raddy | JimBuntu: I am not looking for support on kubernetes installation not trying to troubleshoot wsl related issues if any, | 10:03 |
| raddy | JimBuntu: I was trying to find out whether ubuntu can act as a test bed for kubernetes | 10:04 |
| JimBuntu | raddy: Ubuntu for Windows is WSL based though, that's what I was getting at. | 10:04 |
| raddy | JimBuntu: I am not complaining about any platform related issues, actually I am not complaining about anything yet | 10:05 |

| Roland- | this is why :( | 10:37 |
| grawity | you're not allowed to use openconnect instead, are you? | 10:37 |
| grawity | it doesn't have such problems generally | 10:38 |
| grawity | but other than that... no, I don't think there's a way to make iptables read-only in that way | 10:38 |
| grawity | root is root | 10:38 |
| grawity | I'd either try confining the client in its own namespace/container, or ... try to trick it with the new nft-based iptables | 10:39 |
| === Aavar_ is now known as Aavar | ||
| Roland- | the client uses iptables command to re-create the rules | 10:40 |
| Roland- | I even tried adding a script to chmod -x iptables but that breaks other stuff... | 10:41 |
| grawity | a) switch clients: use openconnect | 10:42 |
| grawity | b) make a wrapper script for iptables that quietly ignores certain "bad" commands | 10:42 |
| grawity | b.1) use dpkg-divert to replace original iptables with the script | 10:42 |
| grawity | b.2) use unshare & mount --bind to replace original iptables with the script | 10:42 |
| Hamilton | Should config files of snap apps be put somewhere else than their predefined locations? | 10:44 |
| grawity | c) if you are using iptables-nft, create a chain named 'OUTPUT' *without a hook*, then its rules will just be ignored | 10:44 |
| Hamilton | For example Youtube-dl looks into ~/.config/youtube-dl/config ... I put my config there but it is not respected. Should I somehow create a config dir inside the snap folder of the app? | 10:44 |
| littlebit | I have a dat file from windows that contains text data but apprarently it is beimg malformed(formatted to be honest) so that I cannot read it properly in vim. is there a way how to convert it? | 10:45 |
| grawity | that requires knowing what format you need to convet *from* | 10:45 |
| grawity | mind showing an example? e.g. a hexdump | 10:45 |
| grawity | and is it 100% text? does it open in Notepad or similar apps on Windows? | 10:45 |
| Roland- | trying openconnect | 10:46 |
| littlebit | grawity: it is 100% text, it has at some points those small 2 (squared mathmatical sign) propbably indicating a CR | 10:47 |
| littlebit | grawity: one sec | 10:47 |
| Roland- | Openconnect is the best! | 10:48 |
| littlebit | grawity: this is what hexdump gives me : http://dpaste.com/0HPS98H | 10:48 |
| Roland- | Thank you grawity | 10:48 |
| === coffeeguy is now known as zenguy | ||
| grawity | I forgot to ask for hexdump -C (easier to read) | 10:54 |
| grawity | anyway, no, that doesn't look like CR at al | 10:54 |
| grawity | (it'd be at the *end* of lines, always immediately next to LF, and vim supports CR-LF just fine anyway) | 10:55 |
| grawity | looks like it's a special format that's only 99% text, tbh | 10:57 |
| grawity | littlebit: basically, it looks like a fixed-width format, no lines but instead fixed-width records | 11:01 |
| grawity | littlebit: you could extract text from it using: cat file.dat | fold -w 26 | LC_CTYPE=C sed -r "s/^..//g" | 11:01 |
| littlebit | another question, I have a webpage where -r "s/^..//g" | 11:04 |
| littlebit | another question, I have a webpage where it access a db.sqlite3. I chmodded db.sqlite file to 664 and i see rw-rw-r-- | 11:10 |
| littlebit | yet when using the page I get the error message that the database is readonly | 11:10 |
| littlebit | this is how the file looks like: -rw-rw-r-- 1 user www-data 200704 Apr 9 12:04 db.sqlite3 | 11:11 |
| grawity | probably means the *directory* is not writable to you, and so sqlite cannot create the temporary "db.sqlite3-journal" file alongside it | 11:12 |
| littlebit | ah ok | 11:14 |
| littlebit | fixed it | 11:15 |

| robinho86 | I receive the follow error when I try to check updates on Softwares: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/t8kpknKnDq/ | 14:42 |
| robinho86 | does anyone have a clue? | 14:42 |
| drleviathan | dunno robinho86, maybe try updating your software from the command line: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade | 14:45 |
| ioria | robinho86, can yo uplease reboot and check again ? | 14:48 |
| robinho86 | via cli everything works fine! | 14:49 |

| ducasse | robinho86: if you want help with 20.04 you need to ask in #ubuntu+1 | 14:53 |
| robinho86 | ducasse: thank you! | 14:54 |
| thal | ioria: mhm. i need 16.04 unfortunately. | 14:56 |
| drleviathan | thal, I find that statement intriguing: why would you need to actually install 16.04 rather than do your 16.04-necessary deeds in a 16.04 docker container? | 15:00 |
| drleviathan | I could imagine a new situations where one would need a real install, but I'm wondering if your case would work through other methods. | 15:01 |
| drleviathan | in short: what do you really need to do? | 15:01 |
| thal | drleviathan: i could do that, yes. Alright. I wanted to install 16.04 via netinstall and pointing to the remote installation url | 15:06 |
| thal | drleviathan: short version is: i want to install Ubuntu 16.04 via netinstall | 15:06 |
| thal | drleviathan: and this is the ubuntu-installer i am using: http://ubuntu.lagis.at/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64 | 15:07 |
| drleviathan | what I meant was: you want 16.04 on a box so you can do... what with it? | 15:07 |
| thal | drleviathan: $contracter wants to have it to run his software (bigbluebutton) on. his requirement is 16.04 | 15:08 |
| * drleviathan googles "bigbluebutton"... | 15:09 | |
| drleviathan | I see. And bigbluebutton runs on 16.04? | 15:10 |
| drleviathan | I recently acquired a deeper understanding of "docker containers". Have you heard of them thal? I ask because I see a potentially better way forward for you and your contractor using such containers. | 15:13 |
| drleviathan | but regarding your netinstall question... I will follow the link to the installer... | 15:13 |
| thal | drleviathan: yepp, container, i regularly use podman, but that's just an alternative | 15:14 |
| drleviathan | I haven't used netinstall since... 2004 or so, and wasn't an expert even then. I don't have much help to offer. Good luck. | 15:16 |
| thal | drleviathan: alright. thanks | 15:18 |

| onox | and why is packages.ubuntu.com showing 7.4? is it updated asynchronously? | 15:41 |
| pragmaticenigma | onox: looking into that now... because I have two up-to-date systems... one has 7.5 and the other has 7.4 | 15:42 |
| lotuspsychje | onox: could be handy to show your full apt output, to see whats all happening over there, volunteers could help you better | 15:42 |

| pragmaticenigma | onox: I just checked on my machine... when I attempt to install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth, it's already linked against the 7.5 release. I'm not sure how I have 7.5, as Source on the package is listed as /var/lib/dpkg/status ... and that doesn't help identify the source of that package for me | 15:53 |
| onox | I removed libpulse0 (and everything that depended on it) and reinstalled it, and that fixed the error when I try to install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth | 15:53 |

| pragmaticenigma | Renari: No need to purge... just manage it through the proprietary drivers panel | 17:20 |
| ioria | Renari, you need the ppa for 440 | 17:20 |
| lotuspsychje | Renari: check ubuntu-drivers list, to see wich are available for your system | 17:20 |
| lotuspsychje | onox: try the journalctl -f, then compare both on BT & usb | 17:21 |
| Renari | Thanks got it, did `sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers` and now it shows the 440 release in driver manager. | 17:21 |
| onox | lotuspsychje: only "input,hidraw2: BLUETOOTH HID" shows up | 17:23 |
| onox | lotuspsychje: I just read on reddit that for audio to work over bluetooth you need some "official adapter" | 17:26 |
| pragmaticenigma | onox: correct, Sony has a proprietary setup for the audio to controller feature. I think lotuspsychje thought you were having trouble pairing your controller generally | 17:28 |
| onox | pragmaticenigma: do you happen to know if the speaker is supposed to work over USB? | 17:29 |
| onox | the 3.5mm jack works, but I haven't been able to get it to output to the speaker | 17:30 |
| pragmaticenigma | onox: I have no experience with the PS audio stuff, just knowledge that you are not the first one to be in the channel with an issue regarding it | 17:30 |
| Jordan_U | onox: Also, just to asuage some of your earlier worries, while apt uses http to fetch packages and to fetch the release files that say what packages are available, all files downloaded through apt are signed and are verified before they are used. This means that a MITM attack can at most lead you to not get any updates from a given repository (by mirroring old signed info). Note, an MITM attack can't | 17:37 |
| Jordan_U | prevent you from seeing an update for just one package, it's all or nothing. And an MITM attack cannot push a newer package to you. | 17:37 |
| Jordan_U | onox: https://wiki.debian.org/SecureApt | 17:37 |
| onox | Jordan_U: ah, thx for that info, I was a bit worried because I didn't see any output that apt does verification | 17:40 |

| neoweb | why is lts holding back kernels on a normal upgrade? | 18:08 |
| lotuspsychje | neoweb: could you provide a bit more details of your current system, so volunteers can thinka long with you, ubuntu version, wich kernels all list in your system? | 18:09 |
| neoweb | https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/gPH2SSo3/image.png | 18:10 |
| neoweb | It is a default install of ubuntu lts | 18:10 |
| neoweb | why is this stuff held back? | 18:10 |
| neoweb | when I upgrade | 18:10 |
| lotuspsychje | neoweb: wich lts exactly, and wich kernels are on your system? | 18:10 |
| neoweb | going from 18.04.1 to 18.04.4 | 18:11 |
| neoweb | Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS \n \l - 4.15.0-43-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 6 14:45:28 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 18:11 |
| lotuspsychje | neoweb: current kernel should be 4.15 -96 | 18:12 |
| neoweb | right, so when I apt-get update/upgrade no dist-upgrade why is it holding back. the lts releases are different dists? | 18:12 |
| lotuspsychje | neoweb: did you add ppa's or add !mainline kernels? | 18:12 |
| neoweb | no. and dist-upgrade just upgraded it all. | 18:13 |
| lotuspsychje | neoweb: can you pastebin the full output of: sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade ? | 18:13 |
| neoweb | apt full-upgrade performs the same function as apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:14 |
| neoweb | I just told you, it is updating those held back packages now. | 18:14 |
| neoweb | https://pastebin.com/U2eCVrVd | 18:15 |
| lotuspsychje | neoweb: your pic was not the full output, can we see the entire apt happenings? | 18:15 |
| neoweb | My question is not how to fix it. | 18:15 |
| neoweb | WHY. Is this EXPECTED behaviour? | 18:15 |
| neoweb | https://pastebin.com/U2eCVrVd | 18:17 |
| ducasse | neoweb: yes. to do a full upgrade you need to use full-upgrade/dist-upgrade | 18:17 |
| neoweb | Is that for all ubuntu's. Is it expected behavior that kernels are always held back now? | 18:17 |
| sarnold | neoweb: apt-get upgrade will not install new packages to satisfy dependencies | 18:17 |
| neoweb | ahh | 18:17 |
| sarnold | neoweb: apt upgrade will install new packages to satisfy dependencies | 18:18 |
| neoweb | So that is the behaviour. | 18:18 |
| neoweb | Thanks! | 18:18 |
| sarnold | neoweb: apt-get dist-upgrade will *remove* any package it wants to, to try to satisfy a dependency | 18:18 |
| sarnold | neoweb: apt upgrade will *not* remove packages to satisfy dependencies | 18:18 |
| sarnold | neoweb: you should almost always be using apt upgrade, instead of apt-get upgrade or apt-get dist-upgrade | 18:18 |
| neoweb | Why would I do that sarnold. Why would I not want the kernel that comes w/ the latest 18 lts? | 18:19 |
| sarnold | neoweb: you would ;) apt upgrade would install it for you, without the risk of uninstalling something important | 18:20 |
| sarnold | I've seen dozens of bug reports filed by people; when apt-get dist-upgraded figured out how to "fix" a dependency problem by uninstalling their sudo package | 18:21 |
| neoweb | This is a vanilla ubuntu box installed/upgraded at the end of 2019. minimal, it is a template box...I cant see what I installed that would hold the kernel back. | 18:21 |
| sarnold | neoweb: nothing at all | 18:21 |
| sarnold | neoweb: kernel updates are delivered via new packages | 18:21 |
| sarnold | neoweb: apt-get upgrade won't install new packages | 18:21 |
| neoweb | ahh | 18:21 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: The one question I have in mind... which kernel are you expecting to be installed? | 18:22 |
| sarnold | neoweb: that's why you need to use either apt upgrade (better) or apt-get dist-upgrade (not as good, but works) | 18:22 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: that is... what version number | 18:22 |
| neoweb | The one default to Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS | 18:22 |
| neoweb | Which appears to be 4.15.0-96-generic | 18:22 |
| neoweb | I get it now. | 18:23 |
| neoweb | Thanks sarnold ! | 18:23 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: The default there is a 5.x series from the HWE ... that's why it's confusing for you to say latest/newest | 18:23 |
| Celmor[m] | after a crash of an application gnome-session exited unexpectedly, afteeer logging back in from gdm it seems certian GUI application no longer work giving this message "CRITICAL: Could not initialize SDL: No available video device" | 18:24 |
| neoweb | pragmaticenigma: well what the heck. | 18:25 |
| neoweb | why does ubuntu tell me in /etc/issue that I am one 18.04.4 when this version is shipping w/ 5.x | 18:26 |
| neoweb | and full-upgrade tells me I am good? | 18:26 |
| neoweb | https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/UtbopbGb/image.png | 18:27 |
| neoweb | This is super confusing, and does not make sense at all. | 18:27 |
| lotuspsychje | neoweb: 5.x kernel is on !HWE the users choice to install or not | 18:27 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: The kernel series that was part of the original install is persisted forward (HWE might not have been the right way to describe it) | 18:27 |
| neoweb | I have to opt in, to a kernel, that is the default for a release, that I should be one? | 18:27 |
| === ben_r_ is now known as ben_r | ||
| pragmaticenigma | So if you install 18.04.1 you will stick with that kernel series | 18:27 |
| cybercrypto | Hi there, when run 'apt update' I receive an error Ign for a repository InRelease (but it is ok for the same repository using Release). Anyone can point me to proper docs, so I can review it? | 18:28 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: This might help better describe the kernel releases than I can do it: https://ubuntu.com/kernel/lifecycle | 18:28 |
| neoweb | But, if I download and install Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS, I will not have hwe unless I enable it, so the default kernel for that release is: 4.15.0-96-generic | 18:29 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: incorrect | 18:29 |
| neoweb | okay | 18:29 |
| neoweb | so default is hwe enabled | 18:29 |
| neoweb | thanks! | 18:29 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: also incorrect | 18:29 |
| pragmaticenigma | I mentioned, I made a mistake in my comment neoweb | 18:30 |
| neoweb | what is the truth pragmaticenigma. | 18:30 |
| pragmaticenigma | Look at the link I just posted: https://ubuntu.com/kernel/lifecycle | 18:30 |
| neoweb | I did. | 18:31 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: That gives a chart of the Ubuntu LTS releases, and the installed kernels for each of those releases and point releases. | 18:31 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: HWE is something that needs to be enabled by the end user. | 18:31 |
| neoweb | It says: The Ubuntu LTS enablement, or Hardware Enablement (HWE), stacks provide the newer kernel and X support for existing Ubuntu LTS releases. These stacks can be installed manually, but are also installed with an Ubuntu LTS point release. | 18:32 |
| neoweb | "but are also installed with an Ubuntu LTS point release." | 18:32 |
| neoweb | ahh | 18:32 |
| neoweb | "The 18.04.2 and newer point releases will ship with an updated kernel and X stack by default for the desktop. Server installations will default to the GA kernel and provide the enablement kernel as optional." | 18:32 |
| neoweb | Nice. | 18:32 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: there ya go | 18:32 |
| neoweb | So if I switch kernels, how flushed out currently are the HWE packages? | 18:33 |
| sarnold | "flushed out"? | 18:33 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: I've enabled HWE on my media center machine and haven't experienced any issues. I have found them as stable as the -general kernel releases | 18:34 |
| pragmaticenigma | sarnold: "flushed out" => stable | 18:34 |
| sarnold | ah, fleshed out :) I've been thinking about data flushes to disk for weeks now .. | 18:34 |
| sarnold | I'm skeptical of our 5.4 kernels | 18:34 |
| pragmaticenigma | cybercrypto: Ign means that the source reported no change since the last time it was checked. | 18:36 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: according to apt docs, it meanss also a missing file. | 18:37 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: i got a request from apt towards http://address_repository and get http_404 back (when I snoop the interface) | 18:37 |
| pragmaticenigma | cybercrypto: since it appears you're masking the repo, I'm going to assume it is a PPA which are supported by the maintainer of the PPA. You should find their launchpad site and reach out to them directly | 18:38 |
| pragmaticenigma | cybercrypto: Also, InRelease versus Release, InRelease means the package includes it's signature verification, where Release provides a secondary file containing the signature. It's possible that out of tradition both addresses are provided but only one of them is maintained | 18:40 |
| ph88 | i installed mariaDB. how can i login with DB beaver ? | 18:40 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: I am not masking. It is a simple and popular repository (google-chrome) and it is no InRelease, so I had to load the key manually. | 18:41 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: the apt tool sends two requests torwards the same repository, the first request is for "InRelease" - and this one fails with Ign. The second request is Release- this one works ok with Hit. | 18:42 |
| pragmaticenigma | ph88: I suggest reading the helpfully put together documentation: https://github.com/dbeaver/dbeaver/wiki | 18:42 |
| ph88 | pragmaticenigma, the problem is not with DB beaver .. it's that i can't get a connection with the server | 18:43 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: i am investigating if it is possible to apt only trigger Release for that reqoposity | 18:43 |
| pragmaticenigma | ph88: MySQL and MariaDB are default configured to only accept connections from 127.0.0.1 (note, numeric not "localhost") | 18:46 |
| ph88 | ok but i installed it on my own laptop and i want to access the database from the same laptop | 18:46 |
| pragmaticenigma | cybercrypto: I don't believe there is a means to do that | 18:47 |
| pragmaticenigma | ph88: I literally just told you how to handle the exact situation | 18:48 |

| ph88 | that messaged must have gotten lost then | 18:48 |
| pragmaticenigma | ph88: MySQL and MariaDB are default configured to only accept connections from 127.0.0.1 (note, numeric not "localhost") | 18:49 |
| ph88 | i put at server host 127.0.0.1 and i can't connect | 18:49 |
| pragmaticenigma | ph88: Or if the product supports it... you can use the socket locally to connect. Lookup their documentation for making a socket connection to the database | 18:50 |
| ph88 | forget about DB beaver ... how do i just install normal mariadb ubuntu package and then login to database server | 18:50 |
| ph88 | i'm on 19.10 | 18:51 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: if you see the first trigger, it is for InRelease (and fails). The second is a Hit and it works because apt is using "Release". https://paste.debian.net/1139405/ | 18:51 |
| pragmaticenigma | cybercrypto: I don't think you can do it from your end. I believe that is something controlled by the host of the repository | 18:52 |
| ph88 | i ran this command `sudo apt install mariadb-server` is this the wrong package ??? | 18:52 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: I see. Where should I start looking for digging more and mitigate this? Any suggestion? | 18:53 |
| pragmaticenigma | cybercrypto: Why does it matter? I don't understand why this is a concern or why potentially breaking your computer's ability to fetch updates is worth this pursuit | 18:54 |
| Prolac | hi, how can I name the process when I put it in the background with "&"? | 18:55 |
| Prolac | so that I can kill it by name instead of PID | 18:55 |
| ph88 | https://bpaste.net/GNMA what's wrong with MariaDB service ??? | 18:56 |
| lordcirth | ph88, read it's logs | 18:56 |
| ph88 | where can i find those ? | 18:57 |
| pragmaticenigma | Prolac: backgrounded tasks do not support naming. you can use a tool such as screen or tmux to start the application and refer back to it with a freindly name | 18:57 |
| ph88 | https://bpaste.net/T47A | 18:58 |
| lordcirth | ph88, /var/log | 18:58 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: I am concerning about learning more about apt, why it is requesting both Release/InRelease for the same repository. If you have no suggestions about how manage this topic, it is ok. I appreciate you time. | 18:59 |
| pragmaticenigma | cybercrypto: By default apt checks for an InRelease package as it is preferred. Failing that it will default over to the Release packages, and will use the Release package assuming the proper signature file is found and validated | 19:00 |
| ph88 | netstat -tulpn | rg 3306 tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN - | 19:01 |
| ph88 | get some process listening on port without process id | 19:01 |
| ph88 | could it be docker interfering ? | 19:01 |
| pragmaticenigma | cybercrypto: It is built into apt to have the functionality. The repo owner is the one that manages the InRelease and Release branches of their repo. It is not something you can control from your side, at least not without breaking other repos in the process | 19:01 |
| pragmaticenigma | ph88: If anything is listening to the port MySQL/MariaDB would like to use, yes... it will fail to start | 19:02 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: that's great piece of intel :-) | 19:02 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: i will for sure take a look into it. | 19:02 |
| ph88 | i can't figure out what is using port 3306 | 19:02 |
| Prolac | pragmaticenigma, the problem is that I am starting screen inside while loop to keep it auto restarting when it crashes | 19:03 |
| ph88 | ah if i rerun netstat with sudo i can see tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 21581/docker-proxy | 19:06 |
| pragmaticenigma | Prolac: You might need to revisit your approach. Screen should not be placed in the background. I would set the application you're trying to have run inside a while loop to auto restart | 19:06 |
| pragmaticenigma | Prolac: I've never had screen crash... though it will terminate if the process launched inside of it terminates | 19:07 |
| cybercrypto | pragmaticenigma: debian wiki is describing more of those tools and default behaviours, i will take a look. thanks for your help. | 19:08 |
| pyusr | can anybody check for me if the function memem definition is different between "man memmem" and "man bstring" ? | 19:13 |
| pyusr | because on my 18.04 it seems so, but my friend tells me on his 18.04 it's ok .... | 19:14 |
| pyusr | (the order of the variables) | 19:14 |
| neoweb | sarnold: pragmaticenigma: i meant, w/ new kernels, come new packages/builds. See like a huge deal to have a LTS on a release kernel. | 19:14 |
| sarnold | pyusr: can you be more specific with what you're seeing? | 19:15 |
| sarnold | pyusr: see eg https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man3/memmem.3.html -- it looks pretty wrong | 19:15 |
| sarnold | pyusr: but what are *you* seeing? | 19:15 |
| pyusr | on man memmem: void *memmem(const void *haystack, size_t haystacklen, const void *needle, size_t needlelen); | 19:16 |
| sarnold | neoweb: yes, our kernel team has grown quite a lot to support LTS kernels for eight or ten years (depending upon release) | 19:16 |
| pyusr | on man bstring: void *memmem(const void *needle, size_t needlelen, const void *haystack, size_t haystacklen); | 19:16 |
| pyusr | I accidently took the bstring definition which ofcourse is wrong.... | 19:16 |
| pyusr | but how come my friend's bstring is not like mine, when we both are on 18.04 ? | 19:16 |
| neoweb | Is the HWE kernel always latests, like lets say rolling release archlinux, or? | 19:16 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: No | 19:17 |
| pragmaticenigma | !latest | neoweb , like all things ubuntu: | 19:17 |
| ubottu | neoweb , like all things ubuntu:: 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. | 19:17 |
| pragmaticenigma | neoweb: So what is offered is tested and determined stable for deployment | 19:17 |
| pragmaticenigma | Ubuntu has many commcercial users, which would not appreciate having system down time due to a kernel bug. Arch is more user focused where such risks are acceptable | 19:18 |
| Jordan_U | pyusr: On my 18.04 system the top of "man bstring" shows "void *memmem(const void *needle,...", like you seem to be seeing. | 19:18 |
| neoweb | It seems like a heavy modification to what is considered LTS, but somehow ubuntu has maintained the best of both worlds. | 19:18 |
| neoweb | Seems too good to be true. | 19:18 |
| pyusr | sarnold: when will your python team support LTS ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-pip/+bug/1864766 | 19:18 |

| pyusr | Jordan_U: yeah, seems like a big bug, I wonder where it comes from ... | 19:19 |

| pragmaticenigma | tripelbb: You might be able to install it via "sudo dpkg -i zoom_amd64.deb" from the command line. (courtesy of sixwheeledbeast) | 21:55 |
| pragmaticenigma | tripelbb: if that doesn't work, then I would make the assumption that their installer package is broken | 21:55 |
| sixwheeledbeast | oh | 21:55 |
| sixwheeledbeast | yer ^ | 21:55 |
| sixwheeledbeast | clearly the instructions for linux are usless | 21:56 |
| sixwheeledbeast | asks you to install gdebi but then gives you incorrect terminal commands | 21:56 |
| pragmaticenigma | !info gdebi | 21:57 |
| ubottu | gdebi (source: gdebi): simple tool to view and install deb files - GNOME GUI. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.5.7+nmu3 (eoan), package size 23 kB, installed size 169 kB | 21:57 |
| pragmaticenigma | I've never got the GUI tool to work with .deb files in the past. I will agree with others in the chat, in that I'd be really careful installing zoom to your machine. The company has done some less honorable things with their software in the past | 21:59 |
| tripelbb | pragmaticenigma, fyi that says dpkg error cannot access.. bla bla. --- not to worry. I have something and it is weird, too weird. I will use phone. meanwhile.I qill ewruen ro fix my elementary infected 18.04 mate or will install 19.10 on another partition and call it a day. -- maybe you you after my meeting. | 22:00 |
| tripelb | What is the path to the control for "how long it takes till I have to give my password again if I haven't touched the controls for a while?" | 22:20 |
| sarnold | which password prompt/ | 22:20 |
| tripelb | I have looked but haven't found the place | 22:20 |
| tripelb | Login prompt | 22:21 |
| tripelb | sarnold | 22:22 |
| sarnold | tripelb: do you mean, the automatic screen locking mechanism? | 22:22 |

| MikeRL | Currently having issues with Ubuntu server GUI on Pi 4 (ARM64 build of 19.10). I did an apt install mate-desktop* and apt-install ubuntu-desktop* and I get a blinking cursor. | 22:44 |
| MikeRL | Sometimes I get booted out of Xorg. I can get the log file, and startx works at times. | 22:45 |
| MikeRL | When I log out, I'm booted back to cli. No greeter. and gdm is installed | 22:46 |
| MacSlow | Greetings everybody! | 22:47 |
| lestac | Greetings MacSlow !! | 22:51 |
| MacSlow | any good pointers to 'debugging' problems with modprobe? I've seen with strace, that finit_module() fails with EPERM when trying to load a kernel module as root. | 22:53 |
| MacSlow | Never seen that before. | 22:53 |
| pragmaticenigma | MikeRL: I'm not certain the GUI packages have been well tested or optimized for the Rpi. The Rpi if you want a desktop experience, i would recommend using the recommended Raspian for RPi's which has better support for the device. | 22:53 |
| pragmaticenigma | tripelb: you still around? | 22:54 |
| sarnold | MacSlow: not really; try perf trace ? | 22:56 |
| MacSlow | sarnold: interesting output... a bit nicer to read than strace | 22:58 |
| MikeRL | it boots to X manually. | 23:06 |
| MikeRL | I wonder if I can get it to boot to X automatically. | 23:06 |
| pragmaticenigma | MikeRL: this should set it up: sudo systemctl set-default graphical.target | 23:09 |
| MikeRL | Thanks. I'll give it a try. | 23:10 |
| sarnold | MacSlow: strace and perf trace are both useful for their own things :) | 23:11 |
| MikeRL | I will read up on things that raspi-config does and edit the config files myself once it boots to GUI | 23:11 |
| sixwheeledbeast | MikeRL: maybe try ubuntu-mate for rpi? There isn't a rpi4 version yet but I believe you can get the rpi3 version working on rpi4 | 23:12 |
| MikeRL | Still boots to cli. I wonder if something is forcing it by default? | 23:12 |
| sarnold | MacSlow: /proc/cmdline? | 23:13 |
| alanbell | o/ el | 23:14 |
| MacSlow | sarnold: that reads... | 23:18 |
| MacSlow | BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-5.3.0-46-generic root=/dev/mapper/vgubuntu-root ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 | 23:18 |
| MacSlow | sarnold: that's not telling anything unusual to me. | 23:19 |
| sarnold | MacSlow: dang | 23:32 |
