[00:06] * Sven_vB goes study the manpage. [00:11] I renamed my server (a year ago) but i'm still seeing the old name come through in certain situations (like for example how it identifies itself to my router/DHCP) can anyone help me figure out how to scrub the traces of that old name? [00:12] actually, maybe I'm confusing this with a different machine [00:12] ignore me pls [00:12] sometimes those 'remembered bits' are actually on the dhcp server [00:13] router lease .. [00:14] I once had such a huge problem getting some *hardware* to work that I named the server 'lilbastard' or something similar, figuring it'd be five minutes to change it when it was all set up... it was not. I couldn't track down all the places that knew that name, and wound up needing to reinstall from scratch after wiping the disk. great fun. great lesson. [00:14] no it's a new connection (switched router), maybe I never changed it at all, /etc/hostname has the old name still [00:15] ahh :) [00:15] do you usually set the hostname to an fqdn, or just the first bit? [00:17] i bet before I just ran sudo hostname foo and it only lasted until the restart [00:19] I only ever set the first part -- none of my machines have internet-reachable names anyway :( [00:20] sarnold btw re: lilbastard, if you think linux has lots of places, mac is worse [00:20] GunArm, the default (boot time) hostname is in /etc/hostname afaik [00:20] i had to port an client application to mac one time, part of it was about reporting it's pc name to an application server, which on windows is like there THE HOSTNAME [00:21] mac has like 3 different competing things that want to be that, and can have independant values [00:21] GunArm: this was an SCO system; not even their UnixWare product, but the horrible thing that predated UnixWare [00:22] GunArm: sudo hostnamectl set-hostname [00:22] GunArm, one of my VPS has h28#####.st###r.net in /etc/hostname so I guess FQDN [00:23] leftyfb Sven_vB thanks! [00:24] GunArm, same format in /etc/mailname [00:24] oo didn't think to look at that one [00:25] best ls /etc/*name :) [00:25] good call === KindTwo is now known as KindOne [01:16] i installed guiscrcpy, enabled debugging, connected my android phone to my laptop ubuntu 20.04 sees the phone i can move files, but clicking the start button on the gui says scrcpy dosnt find any devices [01:17] Greenfrog, via snap? [01:17] yes [01:17] ver 3.9 [01:17] check softwarecenter > installed > snapname > permissions [01:17] ok thanks === Israphel is now known as Guest5057 [01:18] * universal answer to connection and permission issues, files/mic/webcam.. === Israphel_ is now known as Israphel [01:21] should work ootb, adb build in .. https://snapcraft.io/install/guiscrcpy/ubuntu [01:27] wow, that was it. i didnt know i needed to give permissions in ubuntu, it works now big THANK YOU :) [01:27] have fun! [01:27] you made my day :) [01:28] oh is that a gui thing to connect the snap things? [01:28] * sarnold things ALL the things [01:28] yes, unhandy place for snap permissions, some give a dozen... [01:29] I didn't even know we had a gui for it. whatever it is is probably easier than trying to find the snapcraft page about it, hehe [01:29] yeah, no install --classic anymore [01:30] still, there are a lot of options for snap package developers [01:31] where does flatpack store these credentials? hmm? [01:34] oerheks: something like this? https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/issues/311 === coffeeguy is now known as zenguy [01:35] hmm that would be nice too, to keyring. [01:36] not sure snaps have that option too.. [01:39] https://snapcraft.io/docs/password-manager-service-interface [01:39] I wonder what it grants [01:43] is "desktop containment" meant as a sandbox in the security meaning? [01:43] or rather just compatibility? === zbenjamin is now known as Guest63092 === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [01:46] Sven_vB: I think the hope is that when wayland is more mature, it'll be able to provide some security [01:46] Sven_vB: but in the meantime, this probably still works https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/42320.html [01:46] ok === conjo is now known as spagettios [02:09] does anyone know what landscape on premise price is, for more than 10 machines? [02:13] cgi: I *think* that landscape on-prem might be as low as $25/year for desktops, https://buy.ubuntu.com/collections/ubuntu-advantage-for-infrastructure-essential -- servers and vms are more [02:23] Is there someplace I can look up package version numbers that were in EOL ubuntu releases? I'm trying to isolate a bug that was introduced in ubuntu disco, and it would help if I knew the version numbers of a certain package in both cosmic and disco, so I could narrow down the search in the package's upstream git. [02:24] forest: https://packages.ubuntu.com/ [02:24] forest: old packages are on http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/ [02:25] forest: and it's not super convenient, but each release has a mail list like this one https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/disco-changes/ [02:26] forest: the ../dists/ directory of that mirror link would let you get to the Packages files with the version number to release mapping.. that may or may not be less pain than the -changes/ lists [02:32] sarnold: Thank you. http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/**/Packages.xz contained the version numbers I needed. [02:32] nice [02:32] * mason mopes. [02:32] aww :( [02:32] sorry mason [02:32] heh [02:38] sarnold, I thought if i am running on premise, it wont be per instance based - it would be per server that runs landscape - I am guessing that is not true? [02:51] Can you help with rfkill: input handler disabled and then enabled and loosing keyboard input in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS? When it happens I have no choice but reboot. === leaftype2 is now known as leaftype [03:26] Hey everybody Ubuntu 20.04 Cinnamon Remix rocks [03:26] Anybody in here from that project [03:31] Hello [03:34] hello, i'm trying to get a dual boot setup going and i'm having a bit of trouble. windows boot manager is an option in my grub, but it only brings up the recovery mode diagnostics screen, and the only way to get into windows is to manually boot it from the bios [05:25] Can I install a browser only on top of ubuntu-server? A browser only I mean? [05:25] and then run it via putty too as in terminal? [05:28] Intelo: a graphical browser using X? [05:28] Intelo: or would a text mode browser suffice? [05:29] matsaman, graphical browser [05:29] like firefox, chrome [05:30] Hi all, I posted about this issue here a couple of days ago but I have some more information. More often than not, when I log in, I get an error message saying that Samba has crashed. The title is "smbd crashed with SIGABRT in __strlen_avx2()" I've only been getting this crash since I installed the latest update about a week ago. The share still [05:30] seems to be up but I've experienced some issues when transferring files to the share from Windows where it will tell me that the transfer has failed and would I like to retry. [05:30] Intelo: you can install one, but it's a huge faux pas on a _server_ [05:31] matsaman, why huge? [05:33] !info xvfb [05:33] xvfb (source: xorg-server): Virtual Framebuffer 'fake' X server. In component universe, is optional. Version 2:1.20.8-2ubuntu2 (focal), package size 758 kB, installed size 2208 kB [05:33] matsaman, I want to keep it minimalistic [05:34] oerheks, so I do not need X11/xorg? just xvfb (which I assume is lightweight) and firefox? thats it? I can browse with putty? [05:35] for static and 2d effects, it can be doen.. [05:35] c/done [05:35] Am I experiencing this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1514766 [05:35] Launchpad bug 1514766 in samba (Ubuntu) "smbd crashed with SIGABRT in strlen() while accessing a share from a W7 client" [Medium,Confirmed] [05:36] oerheks, I want real browser experience. Youtube, videos, etc [05:37] https://dingyuliang.me/ubuntu-run-xfvb-systemd/ [05:37] Intelo, youtube? no [05:37] Intelo: because it won't be minimalistic [05:37] Intelo: and the more software you have the less secure or reliable a system is [05:37] and on top of that [05:37] oerheks, why not? [05:37] if you put a graphical browser on a server -- people will use it [05:37] to go to torrent sites and porn sites and malware sites [05:37] ehm, go try it out. [05:38] oerheks, matsaman actaully I am doing it for my laptop. I am sick of GUI chashes. and heavy load. My main work is browser that i cannot replace. I can replace all other things with terminal [05:38] I don't need a desktop [05:38] Just browser [05:40] Intelo: you should try Debian, then; Ubuntu doesn't have a stable branch [05:40] the server branch is not a stable branch, it's just a server config [05:40] but heavy load, you could try lubuntu or something [05:43] oerheks, matsaman ok, what performance difference will I get if I delete kde and only have xorg/x11? [05:44] Intelo: on an older system you might see a real difference [05:44] but you may as well have a window manager and some things; perhaps you weren't actually planning on omitting those [05:45] not much point loading just X without a window manager unless you're trying to squeeze every last bit for a game or some kind of nonsense [05:45] yes, x11, handfull of things like dolphin, ktorrent, firefox, chrome, hexchat, thats it [05:46] oerheks, matsaman what do you think? [05:46] well you can't really run dolphin or ktorrent probably without KDE stuff [05:47] but you could get workalikes that are lighter [05:47] people have done that for ages, it's always been a sound approach [05:47] light wm, just the gui apps you need [05:47] try deluge for a fairly agnostic GUI torrent client [05:48] for a file manager ... man, maybe pcmanfm? [05:48] or spacefm? [05:48] there are a few GUI ones with staying power that are DE agnostic [05:49] hm [05:49] thanks [05:49] will read [05:49] good night === you_see_me is now known as beaver [07:54] I know there was this command where I can have bash run multiple commands at the same time. Like sharding.. but I can't remember what it was [07:54] anybody have an idea? [07:57] command1 & command2 & command 3? [07:57] nah [07:57] gnu parallel? [07:57] I found gnu parallel [07:58] yeah [07:58] probably that [07:58] yup that was it - I remember the icon for that project [07:58] thanks mgedmin [08:17] one thing im still confused about is whether linux terminal emulater and command prompt are both what you would call "cli" can some one explain please [08:17] can anyone test this on focal? 1) start gnome-terminal. 2) start vim with "gvim --clean". it will launch and detach itself from the terminal. 3) quit gnome-terminal while gvim is still running. result: there will be a delay of 5 seconds before the terminal will quit. [08:17] also are they both shell [08:20] found a man all gud [08:21] spagettios, they're mostly synonymous, but in actuality a terminal emulator is just understands how to receive input and display text. a "shell" is the program you run in a terminal which lets you type and run commands [08:21] http://linuxcommand.org/lc3_lts0010.php [08:21] acurate historically but not now, fair assesment [08:22] and thanks for repying [08:23] it wasn't accurate historically. terminals used to be computer-like machines (a screen and a keyboard) that communicated with a remote computer that ran your shell [08:23] thats strictly speaking what a termial is right [08:23] the only difference now is that terminal emulators are programs, and you run the shell on the same machine [08:23] an computer and keyboard in one lol saw a pic [08:23] they're still separate things [08:24] yup [08:25] whats the diff between the different ones like ksh and bash sh zsh etc [08:25] a shell reads the commands you type, indicating a program, and asks the operating system to execute that program. the various ones lets you have command history, command completion, have their own internal scripting languages with different syntax, have different keyboard shortcuts [08:26] if you're a programmer, you can try writing your own shell to read commands and run them, to see what it takes to make even a simple shell, and how far it can branch off from there [08:26] interesting the part about scipting syntax [08:27] e.g. csh uses a c-like syntax. bash uses the classic bourne-shell-like syntax. they're quite different [08:27] where can i learn more about that and how it relates to why you would choose one over another [08:27] usecases and stuff [08:28] is bash a programing lagnuage === mateen1 is now known as mateen [08:28] spagettios, it's more a matter of preference than usecase. all shells have their own internal programming language [08:28] C is re C like syntax no? [08:29] I don't understand the question about C [08:29] csh reference [08:30] sorry, please write a whole question [08:31] I was inaccurate about it being a matter of preference. if you want you "shell script" to be compatible with many different machines, you need to write in "bourne shell". this shell is what most computers have at /bin/sh and are likely to have it. bash is "bourne shell" compatible with some added stuff. in ubuntu, the bourne shell program used is called "dash" but it's also available as to /bin/sh [08:33] thanks for that i was trying to refrase the question but getting bogged down i blah blah and getting no where [08:33] CSH is supposedly C-like syntax. I don't think it's very C-like... also it's not really common on linux. It's more of a BSD thing. #! /usr/bin/env tcc is as C as it gets for a shell. [08:34] got ya [08:34] webmind: hey, I was away yesterday - virt-manager will be able to see the Multipass-driven VMs [08:34] webmind: let me know what's your use case and I can hopefully suggest whether Multipass is a good fit :) [08:34] InnovAnon-Inc, yes. sorry for being vague [08:34] if its C like in syntax, does that mean something written in C would work on that shell [08:34] csh [08:35] no [08:35] or just bits [08:35] o [08:35] not even bits. it's just syntax inspired by c [08:36] use tcc as a shell if you're trying to run C as a script. CSH isn't C. [08:36] could you please give me an example am a little confused [08:36] about the syntax inspired [08:37] do you mean like for instance some config files conform to regex standard (perhaps bad example but im only learning the basics) [08:38] spagettios, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_shell#More_like_C [08:38] sorry cheers man [08:40] you can csh is still similar to bourne, by using $ in front of variables, but it uses parentheses instead of square brackets, and different keywords for code blocks (endif instead of fi) [08:41] cool [08:42] my scripts are pretty lol one line with a tee or a | i have used if of before in dd, what does fi and endif do in those programs [08:42] also bourne shell uses a separate command called /bin/[ (also called /bin/test) to evaluate expressions. it's a fake-out. it's not really "square brackets" syntax. in csh, this evaluation with parentheses internal to the shell [08:42] fi and endif just tell the shell "this is where the 'if' block ends" [08:42] is it just stoping the program from looping=allow it to end [08:42] Saviq: wat are multipass vm's? [08:43] not the program.. just the code that you want to run if the "if" expression is true (or false, if you use "else") [08:43] webmind: basically http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/ (and then some) - have a look at https://multipass.run/docs [08:43] webmind: rather than downloading images and/or installing from .isos you `multipass launch 18.04` [08:44] spagettios, these are called "flow control": http://linuxcommand.org/lc3_wss0080.php [08:44] i could kiss you [08:45] been on my todo list for ever [08:45] im bookmarking this page and finishing it [08:45] lol i meant site [08:46] hi [08:46] i just installed ubuntu 20/04 but grub doesnt show up at boot [08:46] dual booting with windows [08:46] i think some packages changed in new version [08:46] how can i restore grub?

Am I looking at the wrong place? [14:09] the only thing i hate about gnome is that there is no "show desktop" icon on dock/panels.. [14:10] well, in gnome the desktop is empty and there's nothing to see there; it's a bit strange that ubuntu patches in the desktop icons extension but no dock button for showing the desktop [14:17] Hi everyone.. I've been having some problems with my laptop (running Kubuntu 20.04). I suspect they are actually hardware issues and am just looking for tips on how to diagnose them. It started with my NIC.. sometimes the interface would just disappear. Now the same is happening with my Bluetooth.. it just disappears (hcitool dev shows no devices). [14:17] Sometimes when I reboot they will show for a little while. This is lower than my standard level of knowledge.. How can I try to debug this? [14:29] afternoon. I am trying to find a guide to booting a Raspberry Pi3 using an NFS mounted root disk running Ubuntu 20.04 [14:32]
