| daregap | Hello, I'm looking for a linux backup solution for Desktop PC -> Remote Server. Preferably I'd use something that doesn't just sync a folder to a remote location, overwriting everything in the process. So for example, if I accidentally erase everything in a local folder and it gets synced to the server then I'll lose data on both ends. | 06:29 |
| Jordan_U | daregap: rsync is the traditional solution for things like that. It can be configured to only add and never remove files when syncing to your backup server. | 06:36 |
| Jordan_U | !rsync | daregap | 06:36 |
| ubottu | daregap: rsync is a fast remote file copy and synchronization program - For more see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync | 06:36 |
| ducasse | daregap: if you want a gui solution, look at back-in-time, it uses rsync to do the work | 06:49 |

| ducasse | daregap: if you use back-in-time, each backup run gets a separate folder. unchanged files are hardlinks, so you can access individual versions of files | 07:19 |

| michagogo | Am I missing something, or does pip for python 2 not exist in focal? | 10:13 |
| quadrathoch2 | michagogo python2 is eol | 10:21 |
| quadrathoch2 | but there is still python in universe | 10:21 |
| michagogo | Yes, I see that | 10:38 |
| michagogo | But it seems pip is missing? | 10:39 |
| michagogo | Or am I overlooking something? | 10:39 |
| quadrathoch2 | michagogo i just told you that there is python2 in universe, but canonical deliberatly didn't package pip, but there are ways to get to it. their stance is, if you want it, you need to know how to get it | 10:51 |
| quadrathoch2 | michagogo and if you really need python2 there are still other versions of ubuntu which support it (going up to 12.04) | 10:53 |
| michagogo | I see, thanks | 10:53 |
| michagogo | That last point was the clarification I was seeking - that python2 still exists as a package but pip intentionally doesn’t | 10:54 |
| quadrathoch2 | michagogo oh sorry, then I misunderstood you first | 10:54 |
| michagogo | Np :-) | 10:55 |
| tribaal | I'd like to upgrade from bionic to focal, but would like to do so the "normal" way before I go ahead and edit my sources.list by hand. do-release-upgrade -d (with /etc/upgrade-mananger/release-upgrades set to "lts") fails to authenticate the release tar.gz however, is there a known problem/workaround? | 11:28 |
| tribaal | reinstalling e.g. ubuntu-keyring doesn't seem to help | 11:28 |
| cousteau | Hi! Are Ubuntu versions intentionally named in a way that reflects their intent? I've noticed that LTS versions are always named something synonymous with "stable" or "reliable" (hardy, lucid, precise, trusty, focal...) whereas the versions right after those are named in a way that suggests "adventurous" or "brave" (edgy, intrepid, maverick?, utopic, groovy...). I assume this is intentional, right? | 11:33 |
| tribaal | cousteau: I think it is, but only Mark knows for sure :) | 11:34 |
| BluesKaj | 'Morning all | 11:35 |
| cousteau | Well yeah but the names are somewhat croudsourced, right? | 11:35 |
| cousteau | Morning | 11:35 |
| cousteau | tribaal: btw, I don't know if things have changed a lot but last time I tried to upgrade via sources.list it was a disaster :) so I would advise against that if it can be avoided | 11:36 |
| quadrathoch2 | tribaal did you make sure that your sources are correct? | 11:36 |
| tribaal | yeah, I think -updates was disabled for I don't know how long on this machine, so that's probably the source of the problem | 11:37 |
| tribaal | cousteau: no, I think names are Mark's exclusive privilege (although the community does maintain lists of possible/wished names :) ) | 11:38 |
| tribaal | quadrathoch2: yep, that was it (no -updates enabled since god-knows-when) so of course ubuntu-keyring was at the release version... :) | 11:46 |

| adrian_1908 | I've tried the 20.04 server image for my notebook as base to build upon. So far this worked well. I noticed however that some cloud-related messages fly past during starting. I assume most of these are related to CloudInit. Does anyone know if I can simply get rid of that for my workstation, or it intertwined with crucial functionality? | 12:08 |
| cluelessperson | How do you disable cpu throttling? | 12:08 |
| cluelessperson | adrian_1908, find where they're coming from | 12:09 |
| cluelessperson | then you can address them | 12:09 |
| quadrathoch2 | adrian_1908 no, you can delete it, as it's mostly just telling the right services how they should be configured. but make sure that you know how to get internet (especially with a laptop) | 12:12 |
| quadrathoch2 | cluelessperson buy a better cooler? or what specifically do you mean? mitigations? | 12:12 |
| cluelessperson | quadrathoch2, My cpu keeps throttling constantly down to 800mhz from 1.6, so I manually configured my fan to run full blast and my temps are only around 56C | 12:13 |
| adrian_1908 | quadrathoch2: Ok, thank you! | 12:13 |
| cluelessperson | quadrathoch2, so, I want to disable cpu throttling because it's obviously wrong somehow. | 12:13 |
| Ben64 | how is it wrong? | 12:13 |
| quadrathoch2 | cluelessperson look into cpu govenor, but as far as I understand what you want to do, it doesn't work, as all modern cpus clock down, to save energy not because of throttling | 12:15 |
| quadrathoch2 | (in your case) | 12:15 |
| cluelessperson | quadrathoch2, well, I'm in chrome and everything gets freaking slow | 12:16 |
| Ben64 | does cpu usage spike and everything kinda pauses for a second? | 12:17 |
| cluelessperson | Ben64, I believe so. | 12:17 |
| Ben64 | seems to be a chrome bug | 12:17 |
| cluelessperson | is that the issue you were talking about before? | 12:17 |
| cluelessperson | Ben64, it occurs with other applications as well | 12:17 |
| Ben64 | i've been using google-chrome-beta lately it's been great | 12:17 |
| Ben64 | it's not gonna be your cpu scaling though unless you're stuck on powersave governor | 12:19 |
| alien-redfish | I want to use a hard drive across Linux (Kubuntu) and Windows, the drive needs to be encrypted but with only one partition - anyone any ideas of the best way to do this? | 12:26 |
| three | Well your single partition should be formatted ntfs but idk about the encryption | 12:27 |
| quadrathoch2 | yeah and I am not sure about ext4 support on windows (in regards to encryption) | 12:28 |
| cluelessperson | quadrathoch2, well, it seems stuck now at 800Mhz | 12:28 |
| quadrathoch2 | at what temps cluelessperson | 12:28 |
| Ben64 | cluelessperson: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_governor | 12:28 |
| three | alien-redfish a better solution is to just go buy another drive and throw in in your computer | 12:29 |
| quadrathoch2 | three that doesn't makes any sense :/ | 12:29 |
| _BIGSHOT_ | how to select fast mirros? my mirror is too slow | 12:30 |
| _BIGSHOT_ | i can't download fast | 12:30 |
| three | quadrathoch2 youre right i was thinking he wanted to boot off this drive but that wouldnt make sense as he said it needs one partition | 12:30 |
| alien-redfish | @three I presume you're on about bootable drives / OS. I'm trying to share data back and forth but want to encrypt it. | 12:30 |
| cluelessperson | Ben64, "performance" | 12:32 |
| cluelessperson | quadrathoch2, 56C ? | 12:32 |
| Ben64 | then it's already at maximum | 12:32 |
| Ben64 | and you've already messed with the governors | 12:32 |
| cluelessperson | make that 46C | 12:32 |
| quadrathoch2 | what type of device are we talking about? desktop or laptop? | 12:33 |
| three | alien-redfish why dont you just separate the files into different directories (like windows and linux) and then have a shared directory and just encrypt the linux directory in linux and the windows one in windows and when you need to move files decrypt them and put them into the shared directory. You could also do this with partitions instead of directories but you said you only want one | 12:33 |
| _BIGSHOT_ | anyone? | 12:33 |
| cluelessperson | Ben64, cpu usage is low, I don't think this is chrome | 12:33 |
| Ben64 | cluelessperson: but you already have it at performance, you can't go higher | 12:33 |
| adrian_1908 | alien-redfish: never used it, but I think VeraCrypt would work for both? | 12:33 |

| quadrathoch2 | dex1983 is there more to that error? | 12:53 |

| === V7 is now known as HornyPixel | ||
| quadrathoch2 | dex1983, at what step did the error occur? | 12:57 |
| Random_User | After upgrading from 18.04 to 20.04 i have run into issues using btcarmory software. The software no longer installs due to dependencies (qt4 python stuff) that are not met. I am not able to find an installation candidate for pyqt4-dev-tools for instance - that is stopping me from compiling from source. the .deb pkg refuses to install due to missing package python-qt4. Is this software too old to run | 12:58 |
| Random_User | on ubuntu 20.04? | 12:58 |
| dex1983 | after finishing the setup I finished the hdd raid the rest installaton began and failed then | 12:58 |
| quadrathoch2 | Random_User yes, qt4 is way end of life | 12:59 |
| quadrathoch2 | dex1983 software raid1? | 12:59 |
| three | dex1983 the arch wiki had extensive documentation on grub and installing/re-installing. If youre certain its grub thats mucking up after an install I'd just reinstall it https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB | 12:59 |
| dex1983 | and raid 5 like ovh tutorial | 12:59 |
| Random_User | that is unfortunate :( i liked this ubuntu alot. thanks | 13:00 |
| three | wait dex1983 the installation failed or grub failed? You're going to need to be more specific about your issue | 13:01 |
| dex1983 | grub failed the rest of ubuntu 20.04 lts installer works | 13:01 |
| quadrathoch2 | dex1983 still software raid or? | 13:01 |
| dex1983 | software raid | 13:02 |
| three | try chrooting into your installation and installing grub manually | 13:02 |
| dex1983 | reboot and with which live cd? | 13:02 |
| three | dex1983 boot into the live cd and mount your root partition on /mnt and your boot partition to /mnt/boot and the run chroot /mnt and you should be able to run the grub installation. This page goes into detail on how to do that https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB | 13:04 |
| quadrathoch2 | dex1983 there should be an option for entering a shell (in the installer) | 13:04 |
| dex1983 | yeah quadrathoch2 right but with the installer shell no grub etc. is working :-( | 13:04 |
| quadrathoch2 | dex1983 but you should be able to chroot into the installed system | 13:05 |
| dex1983 | ah and n the chrooted path grub should work | 13:06 |
| three | dex1983 you should be able to press ctrl+alt+f5 to get to a tty | 13:07 |
| quadrathoch2 | three hope you can take over ;) need to take a call | 13:07 |
| three | dont worry I could install grub in my sleep | 13:08 |
| dex1983 | ok thanks please help three so changing to tty5 should work and then | 13:10 |
| dex1983 | ? | 13:10 |
| three | mount the root partition of the installed OS to /mnt and if you have an efi partition mount it to /mnt/boot | 13:11 |
| dex1983 | on ctrl + F2 I get an console | 13:11 |
| three | should be able to do this with like (mount /dev/sdx# /mnt) | 13:12 |
| dex1983 | ok in my case it was/is /dev/md1 that worked | 13:12 |
| dex1983 | and now the efi part | 13:12 |
| three | do you know if you are booting with uefi or legacy | 13:13 |
| three | you can do fdisk -l to see if the installer made you a boot partition it should have either a label like "efi boot" or "boot" | 13:14 |
| dex1983 | not working with ubuntu shell from installer I will try to boot a live cd :-) | 13:14 |
| dex1983 | which one is good archlinux? | 13:15 |
| dex1983 | I booted with UEFI | 13:15 |
| three | no do this from the ubuntu live cd | 13:15 |
| dex1983 | can I restart? | 13:15 |
| three | what isnt working? | 13:15 |
| dex1983 | reboot? | 13:15 |
| three | yes go ahaead reboot if you wish | 13:15 |
| dex1983 | fidsk command is not working | 13:15 |
| three | fdisk -l | 13:15 |

| three | you can install the desktop environment after the installation but it requires very basic terminal usage | 13:17 |
| dex1983 | only the ubuntu lts stick | 13:17 |
| rudeguy | terminal usage is no problem | 13:17 |
| rudeguy | as long i can install a desktop | 13:17 |
| three | dex1983 boot into a live usb of ubuntu even if its the server version it should work | 13:18 |

| touil76 | Hello. I have a question about using ubuntu 20.04 with an old graphics card. | 13:29 |
| three | rudeguy go with something like arch then sound like exactly what you want | 13:30 |
| three | touili76 whats your question | 13:30 |
| touil76 | I installed ubuntu 20.04 on my old Dell E520, with radeon X1300 graphics card, | 13:30 |
| touil76 | and whenever I boot, after the normal grub with text and all, when it comes to the login screen, all I can see are a bunch of diagonal lines that change somehow when I hover the mouse over them. | 13:31 |
| Deano59 | touil76: shoot the question. | 13:31 |
| oerheks | touil76, pretty old card, radeon is good supported from 4xxx and up. | 13:31 |
| oerheks | not a youtube card, i say./ | 13:32 |
| touil76 | All works perfectly with my old ubuntu 16.04 installation. | 13:32 |
| three | could be the card do you have another lying around you could try | 13:32 |
| touil76 | What should I try to get it work ? | 13:34 |
| touil76 | Maybe, from login screen on, it's wayland that is in use, and my old card only supports Xorg ? | 13:34 |
| three | was it artifacting with the green lines in the installation usb too? | 13:34 |
| touil76 | No, all went well with the usb installation. The screen worked and everything. | 13:35 |
| touil76 | That is why I find it so weird. | 13:35 |
| three | that is strange. I know this is a simple suggestion but did you try reseating the card? | 13:35 |
| touil76 | All is still working good with 16.04 so the card health is not the culprit. | 13:36 |
| three | is this 20.04 gnome youre on or a different DE? | 13:37 |
| touil76 | It's a vanilla install. | 13:37 |
| touil76 | I don't remember trying to uninstall gnome. | 13:37 |
| === HornyPixel is now known as Voxel | ||
| three | I'm not sure what could be causing it but I'd bet a desktop environment like xfce probably wouldn't experience this issue. The issue could just be with gnome as 16.04 used unity not gnome | 13:39 |
| three | consider trying to install xubuntu. xfce is great anyway | 13:41 |
| three | plus a DE like gnome will run like sh*t on your Dell e520 its a very heavy piece of software | 13:42 |
| touil76 | I know, I was hoping to customize a unity installation. | 13:45 |

| oerheks | jonfen, did you add i386 archtecture? | 14:07 |
| jonfen | yes | 14:07 |
| oerheks | and run proper updates, sudo apt dist-upgrade? | 14:07 |
| jonfen | yes | 14:07 |
| jonfen | the issue comes down to those cpp conflicts | 14:07 |
| jonfen | but i am not sure how to resolve them | 14:07 |
| quadrathoch2 | well it literally says: You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these. | 14:08 |
| oerheks | looking at cpp:i386, it is part of gcc-defaults | 14:09 |
| oerheks | what guide are you following? | 14:09 |
| jonfen | quadrathoch2: but if I try --fix-broken, it just uninstalls i386 for the latest | 14:09 |

| jonfen | but 20.04 has dropped more 32 bit support | 14:13 |
| jonfen | x11-apps:i386 is the last dependency i need to resolve, but its dependencies (cpp) have me stuck | 14:13 |
| jonfen | is there a way to do a --fix-broken that forces an architecture? | 14:14 |
| oerheks | cpp is part of gcc-defaults; try installing gcc-defaults:i386 | 14:15 |
| jonfen | oerheks: will do | 14:15 |
| oerheks | good luck with that prop paid software | 14:15 |

| jwr | I know that I can use a tool like `top` to examine system load with process-level granularity in real time. Is there any tool which provides process-level granularity retroactively?

| quadrathoch2 | fassl it is possible, is it recommended? no | 15:29 |

| oerheks | fassl, follow the eolupgrade factoid, 19.04 is dead for some time now | 15:29 |
| oerheks | !eolupgrade | 15:30 |
| ubottu | 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 | 15:30 |

| abtm_ | fwupd-signed: Depends: fwupd (= 1.3.9-4) but 1.3.9-4ubuntu0.1 is to be installed | 15:30 |
| fassl | thanks quadrathoch2 oerheks | 15:30 |
| quadrathoch2 | fassl make sure to have backups ;) | 15:31 |
| fassl | quadrathoch2 hm i might just reinstall as oerheks suggests, as zfs on root is now possible from the installer right? i already had issues with this in a previous upgrade iirc | 15:34 |
| oerheks | abtm_, reload the lists with sudo apt update, then try upgrade again or upgrade -f | 15:34 |
| quadrathoch2 | fassl imho, makes more sense. and (at least for me) it doesn't take that much longer to configure everything + install the programs i need (have it all written down) | 15:35 |
| abtm_ | imes | 15:35 |
| abtm_ | will try upgrade -f | 15:35 |
| abtm_ | is the f before or after upgrade | 15:35 |
| oerheks | after, sudo apt upgrade -f | 15:36 |
| abtm_ | didnt work | 15:36 |
| abtm_ | The following packages have been kept back: | 15:36 |
| abtm_ | fwupd | 15:36 |
| ioria | abtm_, sudo apt full-upgrade | 15:37 |
| abtm_ | doesnt that upgrade to next OS release? | 15:37 |
| ioria | nope | 15:37 |
| oerheks | !distupdgrade | 15:38 |
| oerheks | !distupgrade | 15:38 |
| ubottu | A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. | 15:38 |
| oerheks | dist-upgrade and full-upgrade do not bring the next 'buntu | 15:38 |
| abtm_ | ok thanks | 15:39 |
| fassl | quadrathoch2 agreed. | 15:41 |

| chaotix | i am gonna try to add the last two resolutions listed there first i think.... i hadnt tried this yet | 17:40 |
| chaotix | only the first two show upo in the gui as of now | 17:40 |
| pavlos | chaotix: maybe there is a setting on TV (using the TV remote) to set up resolution | 17:45 |
| chaotix | pavlos there isnt unfortunately | 17:46 |

| luckylinux | Hi. Did anybody have success setting up ubuntu 20.04 LTS with ZFS on LUKS? I am struggling (install using debootstrap) and it basically cannot resolve rpool/ROOT/ubuntu during update-initramfs. There was a patch on launchpad bug tracker by one user, but it didn't work for me :(. Could it be due to the fact that I created the pool from Debian (ZFS 0.8.4) while ubuntu has only ZFS 0.8.3 ? | 17:53 |
| chaotix | pavlos no | 17:53 |
| chaotix | i just tried it using xrandr --size 480x720... its way too big and too much overscan | 17:53 |
| pavlos | chaotix: so use 1080 or 720 for your res ... settings>Displays | 17:53 |
| chaotix | pavlos i am not sure what you mean | 17:56 |
| chaotix | pavlos | 17:56 |
| chaotix | pavlos sorry... anyway there were only two initial resolutions available and they were both 16:9 resolutions... thje other ones i am ading in the terminal... but no matter what i try there is overscan | 17:57 |
| chaotix | a ton of it | 17:57 |
| chaotix | at least in kodi you can just resize the screen, same with android tv... but i | 17:58 |
| chaotix | cant figure out what to do in linux | 17:58 |
| pavlos | chaotix: you wrote, "in displays are 1920x1080 and 1280x720" (I drop the 1st number) so settings>Displays let you use either 1080 or 720. You dont want either of those res? | 17:59 |

| chaotix | pavlos i appreciate you trying | 18:03 |
| kyle__ | chaotix: What connection? The connection type will dictate the resolutions available. | 18:03 |

| chaotix | pavlos i really appreciate all the help | 18:04 |
| kyle__ | chaotix: And the more modern ones like DP/HDMI should always list available resolutions to the OS, and many of the older ones /usually/ do as well. | 18:04 |
| chaotix | kyle__ it's HDMI | 18:04 |
| chaotix | there were only two available res, both showing up bigger than the tv so there was a ton of oversdcan | 18:04 |
| kyle__ | xrandr should tell you. | 18:05 |
| kyle__ | Ohh. You can fix the overscan to some extent. arch wiki is often helpful. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xrandr | 18:05 |
| kyle__ | But I don't know how much. | 18:05 |
| chaotix | kyle__ i have been trying... the closest i ever got with it was with xrandr --trnasform but i couldnt get it to fit right and it also made everything really buggy on the system | 18:06 |
| kyle__ | Damn. Well there goes all my good ideas :) | 18:06 |

| Eryn_1983_FL | hi guys.. | 19:41 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | so im trying to tftp boot ubuntu server, | 19:41 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | and there is an option for a nic id, what should i put? em1 doesnt work eth0, ens? | 19:41 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i already got a pxe server working fine | 19:46 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i just dont want to use nfs, i want to use http, | 19:46 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | atm i am getting nic error and no /dev/sr0 | 19:47 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i think that cause i use the initrid and stuff from the iso | 19:47 |
| three | run "ip a" it'll show your network config and the names of your network adapters | 19:51 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | mmm | 19:52 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | its a vm | 19:52 |
| three | it sill will have network adapters | 19:52 |
| three | where do you need the nic id? | 19:52 |
| pavlos | could be vbr0 | 19:52 |
| three | btw what kind of tftp boot service are you setting up? | 19:53 |
| oerheks | a vm, interesting. | 19:53 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i just want it to install ubuntu | 19:53 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | for our centos we use kickstart, | 19:54 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i dont really want that part i just want it to load ubuntu install and i can manually set it up | 19:54 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i just cant attach an iso in the current env, | 19:54 |
| oerheks | .. without nfs ofcourse | 19:54 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | yeah that would be nice,, | 19:54 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i got http already setup.. | 19:55 |
| three | what hypervisor are you using? | 19:55 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | its ovirt, | 19:55 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | but the iso add bs is broken and i cant get it working | 19:55 |
| three | i've never heard of it. but thats really dumb that you cant mount an iso | 19:56 |
| three | you could just dd the iso to whatever format it uses for the virtual disks and then boot to that lol. that would be a very roundabout solution | 19:56 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | im tempted... | 19:57 |
| three | like just make a blank raw file and dd the iso over it then just mount and boot and boom | 19:57 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i even tried to upgrade over the weekend and it wont let me connect new nodes cause there is not python2 | 19:57 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | ok | 19:58 |
| three | whats the reason for that hypervisor. does it have some specific use case | 19:58 |
| Dr_Coke | Hi Eryn_1983_FL | 19:58 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | hello | 20:00 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | the reason? | 20:00 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | not sure, its prod atm, | 20:00 |
| three | hey, thats a fine answer | 20:00 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | we are trying to move off the openstack, but juju keep messing up | 20:00 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | im trying to appease the Devs with a new ubuntu server for docker, | 20:01 |
| three | i mean if its only one server just dd to a raw or something and see if that will do the trick. if its multiple servers you have to create on this hypervisor id stick with the pxe booting. cant you also like install ubuntu some other wacky way over a network | 20:02 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | its just one but they been wanting a few for openstack and stuff so i was thinking long term | 20:03 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | its a virtio disk not sure what that mean | 20:03 |
| oerheks | maybe #ovirt is a help, grinn | 20:04 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | lolol | 20:05 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | not really | 20:05 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | i been fighting with it for weeks, | 20:05 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | my nfs server is great for that, yet i cant get ovirt to connect to it, i can manually | 20:08 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | sigh | 20:08 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | so im dding it to a second hdd | 20:08 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | now | 20:08 |
| kyle__ | Anyone know of a good way of tracking the per-application active time on desktop? Most of what I'm finding are time-trackers that the user interacts with, but in this case it's more about monitoring how much time my kids are using on their machines. | 20:08 |

| rjb | hi, in some earlier ubuntu releases i think the validity fingerprint sensor worked out of the box (not sure though). in 20.04's settings manager i just got an error message when trying to setup fingerprint login. lspci and lsusb don't show anything related to validity fingerprint sensor. how can i make it working (if at all)? | 20:19 |
| oerheks | fingerprint never worked OOTB, without the fingerprint gui ppa, with 20.04 it is build-in. still, check the ppa page for supported deviced IDs | 20:25 |
| oerheks | https://launchpad.net/~fingerprint/+archive/ubuntu/fingerprint-gui and https://fprint.freedesktop.org/supported-devices.html | 20:25 |
| === beaver is now known as la_petite | ||
| rjb | oerheks: ok, thanks. then there's probably a hardware issue with the fingerprint reader as it won't show up in lsusb at all :( | 20:29 |
| oerheks | i think you want lspci, for internal devices | 20:29 |
| matsaman | as far as security, I can only imagine using a fingerprint reader as a red herring | 20:30 |
| rjb | oerheks: it's neither listed there :/ | 20:31 |
| rjb | matsaman: since there's no encryption on the disk it doesn't really make a difference. | 20:35 |
| === la_petite is now known as la`petite | ||
| matsaman | rjb: heh, even better | 20:38 |
| tomreyn | and fprint just stores RAW images of your fingertips on disk, convenient. | 20:39 |
| oerheks | yeah, there is encryption between device and port in progress.. | 20:42 |
| rjb | either way it's good enough to keep noobs or little children out. fprint would however speed up logins :) | 20:42 |
| tomreyn | or you can have it even faster, just remove the logins! | 20:43 |
| dex1983 | Hmm I have no ideas :-( why I cannot install Ubuntu LTS with software RAID :-( | 20:45 |
| matsaman | dex1983: what kind of raid setup were you thinking of? | 20:48 |
| dex1983 | like this one https://support.us.ovhcloud.com/hc/en-us/articles/360006076940-How-to-Configure-Software-RAID-on-Ubuntu-18-04 | 20:49 |
| dex1983 | does not work with ubuntu 20.04 lts | 20:49 |
| dex1983 | Also in Debian I cannot make it | 20:49 |
| dex1983 | EFI sucks but UEFI boot is enabled | 20:49 |
| matsaman | which part doesn't work? | 20:50 |
| dex1983 | the grub install fails | 20:51 |
| dex1983 | or seems to work after rebot grub command line appears thats all :-( when I try to install on usb stick | 20:52 |
| tomreyn | dex1983: did you partition manually? | 20:59 |
| dex1983 | yep | 20:59 |
| tomreyn | do you still have the logs? | 21:00 |
| dex1983 | nope :-( | 21:00 |
| dex1983 | I'm about to give up. :-( | 21:01 |
| Jordan_U | daregap: You might also be interested in using btrfs. The combination of snapshots and btrfs send / receive allows incremental backups that are CPU efficient, Time efficient (snapshots are almost instant), and Network efficient (like rsync, only changes are sent. But unlike rsync, btrfs send can actually calculate the diff to send itself, without needing to check what the backup server has / timestamps | 21:01 |
| Jordan_U | on files on the backup server). | 21:01 |
| Jordan_U | daregap: All of the above is equally true of zfs, but I like btrfs because it's upstream, has no licensing issues, and is IMHO more flexible and well suited to consumer needs. | 21:02 |
| edoceo | I've got this odd issue on T420s Lenovo -- usuall xrandr shows one DVI output -- but after I come back from Hibernate it shows TWO there is a new phantom VGA-1 device added | 21:09 |
| edoceo | it's not real | 21:09 |
| edoceo | How can I force the system to not enable that phantom device? | 21:12 |
| matsaman | edoceo: could you just say xrandr --output VGA-1 --off? | 21:15 |
| edoceo | Yea, but how to make that run on every boot, and on ever time I come back from hibernate | 21:19 |
| edoceo | Cause somehow, this new thing gets added when we go into hibernate. | 21:19 |
| edoceo | Maybe it's this nvidia drviver? | 21:19 |
| matsaman | there are some filesystem spots you can drop scripts to run on wake | 21:19 |
| oerheks | i am sure that 520 has a vga port too, left side | 21:19 |
| matsaman | edoceo: which Ubuntu version? | 21:20 |
| edoceo | Then then after the failed restore from hibernate, which addes this phantom VGA-1 then next proper boot has the resultion all to heck. | 21:20 |
| edoceo | Latest xubuntu w/Xfce 4.12 | 21:20 |
| oerheks | oops 420 | 21:20 |
| edoceo | It's a fresh install | 21:20 |
| matsaman | edoceo: latest isn't a version | 21:20 |
| edoceo | matsaman: but you know which version I mean right? Latest version; which is Xubuntu 20.04 LTS | 21:21 |
| edoceo | The docs call it "Latest LTS release: 20.04, Focal Fossa" | 21:22 |
| matsaman | I do now | 21:22 |
| matsaman | 'latest' is an English word that is arbitrary, it's unfortunate if they use it against versions on download sites | 21:22 |
| edoceo | I'll let the folks who operate xubuntu.org know | 21:23 |
| * matsaman shrugs | 21:23 | |
| matsaman | edoceo: https://askubuntu.com/questions/92218/how-to-execute-a-command-after-resume-from-suspend | 21:23 |
| edoceo | Ok, that's good - but how can I fix the ubuntu display detection issue for-real, rather than an on/boot/resume/hibernate/thaw process. | 21:26 |
| edoceo | Like, why is the machine adding "VGA-1 connected" when no-such thing is happening? Then adding DP-1,2,3 too (after a reboot). Shouldn't this display configuration be pretty static and not change each boot? | 21:27 |
| matsaman | edoceo: I assume a deep dive into xrandr source might help you figure that out | 21:31 |

| aum | Does the server version of Ubuntu 20.03 not have boot-from-zfs option? | 21:42 |
| sarnold | aum: it does not; that'll probably come later, but afaik there's no timetable for it | 21:45 |
| mason | aum: It's entirely possible to do a debootstrap install that'll get you a ZFS root. | 21:57 |
| Severs | what would be a reason that PDFs are printing properly, do i need a different PDF reader than the default that comes with ubuntu? | 22:00 |
| matsaman | Severs: are or aren't printing properly? | 22:01 |
| Severs | arent, the first couple ive tried have had none of the fill in information on the print, and then another one printed blank pages | 22:03 |
| Severs | for instance, one of the things i am attempting to print out right now is a filled in form 1040 regarding my taxes... and its just printing a unused form 1040 | 22:04 |
| matsaman | Severs: talking about for fillable forms? | 22:05 |
| Severs | yeah | 22:05 |
| matsaman | Severs: that's all Adobe proprietary BS, IME | 22:05 |
| Severs | so theres no good way to print it from linux? | 22:05 |
| matsaman | Severs: I've heard okular might do better | 22:06 |
| matsaman | Severs: pdfedit obviously, but that's more editing than filling | 22:06 |
| matsaman | Severs: what you really "want" is adobe's actual acroread | 22:06 |
| matsaman | Severs: actually I've read evince can do it under _some_ circumstances | 22:06 |
| Severs | i installed that off the Ubuntu store, when i go to print it just brings up a blank error box | 22:06 |
| Severs | ill try evince | 22:07 |
| matsaman | what I usually do | 22:08 |
| matsaman | and I usually do this even for fillable forms when I have acroread | 22:08 |
| matsaman | (because usually fillable forms reformat things terribly fugly) | 22:08 |
| matsaman | is open the PDF in Inkscape and put in my digital text however I like | 22:08 |
| matsaman | it's more time consuming, but the finished product can be as perfect as I want | 22:08 |
| oerheks | how about libreoffice? | 22:08 |
| matsaman | and you even eliminate certain restrictions | 22:08 |
| Severs | everything is already filled in, its not printing the filled in info when i click print | 22:09 |
| matsaman | fastest way would be to take a screenshot & print it | 22:10 |
| Walex | LibreOffice can edit PDFs too | 22:21 |
| Severs | editing isnt the issue, printing is | 22:22 |
| Severs | thanks for the help guys | 22:22 |
| matsaman | Severs: take a screen shot & print it, or seek out acroread, or edit it | 22:22 |
| matsaman | those are your straightforward options | 22:23 |
| Severs | yeah i converted them to images | 22:23 |
| matsaman | or print it out and fill it in by hand =) | 22:23 |
| matsaman | PDFs on websites always sucked, for forms too | 22:23 |
| Severs | problem with that is one of the PDFs wouldnt even print out any of the document whatsoever, it would print completely blank pages | 22:23 |
| matsaman | yeah there are at least a couple different form standards in adobe's proprietary bs | 22:24 |
| Severs | all i can say is... its just so dumb | 22:25 |
| carcamovski | puedes en 15 min? | 22:32 |
| Severs | but again, thanks for helpin me out guys i appreciate it | 22:34 |
| forgotmynick | hello. i followed this guide to create a notification for when a user logs in and it works great (https://askubuntu.com/a/448602). i'm now using putty on windows and adding an environmental variable (acceptenv set in sshd config) which is available in the shell when logged in but not with the script. is there something i need to change? | 22:35 |
| sarnold | forgotmynick: the PAM module pam_env is often configured for services and may cause the environment variable set by the remote client to be discarded during the authenticatino process | 22:40 |

| giaco | I have 2 ubuntu machines. In one I write an utf8 encoded txt file with vim, and it works correctly. When I rsync that file to second ubuntu machine, when I open it with vim I see special characters replaced with _ | 22:55 |

| miu5 | hi, Im looking for this version of crontab in the Ubuntu Manpages, specifically for the MAILFROM that is used in here: https://linux.die.net/man/5/crontab . Anyone can help? | 23:19 |
| matsaman | man 5 crontab ? | 23:20 |
| miu5 | matsaman, man 5 crontab does not have MAILFROM inside the pages. | 23:22 |
| pavlos | matsaman: there is a MAILTO | 23:23 |
| matsaman | miu5: what's your cron implementation? | 23:24 |
| miu5 | yes i know theres MAILTO. i want to set MAILFROM. My question is, why is MAILFROM discussed on https://linux.die.net/man/5/crontab, but its nowhere to be found in the Ubuntu manpages? | 23:25 |
| matsaman | maybe the particular single cron implementation you're using | 23:25 |
| matsaman | doesn't support it, or doesn't mention it in _its_ man pages | 23:26 |
| matsaman | there are tons of cron implementations | 23:26 |
| sarnold | miu5: there's a bunch of different cron implementations: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/DKCGNjtrs6/ | 23:26 |
| matsaman | try cronie | 23:26 |
| sarnold | miu5: try some of the other packages | 23:26 |
| sarnold | miu5: there's a chance that debian/ubuntu doesn't have *that* cron implementatino packaged | 23:26 |
| sarnold | miu5: if you find out whast implementation it *is*, you can check if we have a package for it, or package it yourself if we don't | 23:26 |
| miu5 | sarnold, how can i find out the exact version of cron i am using? and how do i find out what implementation it is? | 23:27 |
| matsaman | dpkg -l | grep -i cron | 23:27 |
| pavlos | if MAILFROM is defined, it will be used else "root" will be used | 23:27 |
| sarnold | miu5: man cron, scroll to the end. it *probably* says author, paul vixie.. | 23:28 |
| matsaman | vixie's man page covers MAILFROM, IME | 23:28 |
| matsaman | I doubt Ubuntu would ship vixie by default though | 23:29 |
| miu5 | sarnold, scrolled to the end but doesnt say version. i found it with dpkg from matsaman. its 2.3-24 | 23:31 |
| matsaman | miu5: okay 2.3-24 but what package? | 23:32 |
| miu5 | and 3.0pl1-128.1ubuntu1 | 23:32 |
| matsaman | just 'cron'? | 23:32 |
| miu5 | anacron | 23:32 |
| miu5 | anacron 2.3-24 | 23:32 |
| miu5 | cron 3.0pl1-128.1ubuntu1 | 23:32 |
| matsaman | it's probably bcron, then | 23:33 |
| pavlos | apt list cron | 23:33 |
| matsaman | I think Debian is moving to cronie, so that should happen in Ubuntu after a while, too | 23:33 |
| matsaman | and of course systemd has some kind of thing | 23:34 |
| miu5 | cron/bionic,now 3.0pl1-128.1ubuntu1 amd64 [installed,automatic] | 23:34 |
| === Voxel is now known as V7 | ||
| === V7 is now known as Voxel | ||
| miu5 | so what implementation is MAILFROM in then? matsaman | 23:35 |
| matsaman | more than one implementation supports it | 23:36 |
| matsaman | I would suggest 'cronie' if it's available | 23:36 |
| matsaman | not sure it is | 23:37 |

| miu5 | hmm interesting | 23:38 |
| miu5 | no wonder its not there. | 23:39 |
| matsaman | bit weird the commentors are trying to patch the existing cron instead of just making the version that supports it available =P | 23:41 |
