[00:50] <SynfulAck> on gnome there is a mouse slider option for mouse speed. I have that maxxed out but it still isnt fast enough. There must be some way to further increase it, its speed is slower than on windows?
[00:51] <sarnold> some mice have different 'dpi' settings and fiddling with that can drastically change the mouse speed
[00:52] <avenger> ubuntu 20.04 mine is right in settings
[00:52] <sarnold> my anker has a little button on the top that cycles through a few dpi settings and fiddling with it makes it go faster or slower
[00:52] <sarnold> some other mice may put those settings in their windows drivers and there may or may not be a way to change those settings from linux
[00:53] <avenger> SynfulAck: you don't have a mouse&touchpad option in settings?
[00:54] <avenger> SynfulAck: or am i misunderstanding that you have the slider up and you need more? What mouse are you on? Much like sarnold my mouse has a "precision" but i occasionally hit by accident
[00:54] <sarnold> this webpage has a lot of information on some specific models of mice but makes no effort to describe them all. but maybe it'll help you find something? http://cryto.net/~joepie91/areson/
[01:14] <glue11> Hi everyone, for some reason unattended-upgrade is not updating my package list, though if update manually, it installs packages for me. Any idea what's going on? I think I have the right option set to enable updating the package list: APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1"
[01:14] <quadrathoch2> glue11 it would help if you could post more than just that one line (as in the whole conf file probably)
[01:14] <quadrathoch2> using paste.ubuntu.com
[01:15] <glue11> sure
[01:16] <glue11> quadrathoch2: I pasted it here https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/pCT2qs4Djy/
[01:17] <quadrathoch2> glue11 could you also post the 50unattended-upgrades?
[01:18] <glue11> quadrathoch2: here's that file: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/r34T72QCSb/
[01:21] <quadrathoch2> glue11 what does the /var/log/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades.log file say?
[01:23] <Bashing-om> glue11: There too is: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/phased-updates.html .
[01:24] <glue11> quadrathoch2: these are the entries from the run today https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/26X3g2WcQC/
[01:26] <glue11> Bashing-om: how does it work? Because when I run apt update the packages appear and install on the next scheduled run. otherwise i've never seen anything install
[01:29] <quadrathoch2> glue11 since when did you have that issue?
[01:30] <sarnold> grep "Packages that will be upgraded:" /var/log/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades.log
[01:30] <sarnold> really nothing?
[01:30] <glue11> Probably a few weeks. I've never got it working on this machine
[01:30] <sarnold> so very strange
[01:31] <quadrathoch2> yeah
[01:31] <Bashing-om> glue11: If you run the update/upgrade from terminal - there is completion ?
[01:31] <glue11> yup
[01:31] <glue11> if I update, the security updates will install the next day
[01:32] <quadrathoch2> glue11 anything on 'sudo unattended-upgrade -d'?
[01:32] <glue11> If I upgrade, they install fine
[01:32] <glue11> Let me run it now
[01:32] <Bashing-om> glue11: Apt in terminal takes prcedence over unattended-upgrade. Else phased updates are in effect.
[01:32] <sarnold> I'm not surprised nothing happened today, this was the last security update https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/focal-changes/2020-June/019013.html
[01:33] <glue11> Does unattended-upgrade rely on my local package list?
[01:35] <glue11> I mean I can sit tight and wait but I've literally never seen it install anything unless I manually ran apt update
[01:36] <glue11> And the logs say nothing about retrieving a new package list
[01:36] <quadrathoch2> glue, well you shouldn't see too much, as you only have security updates active. and unattended upgrade does take your sources.list and sources.list.d/ files
[01:36] <quadrathoch2> glue11 that should be under another log file in the same folder (can't remember the name)
[01:40] <glue11> Is it unattended-upgrades-dpkg.log? If so the last timestamp is on June 16 and I probably ran apt update that day
[01:41] <Bashing-om> glue11: /var/log/dpkg.log .
[01:42] <glue11> Same thing there. Nothing after June 16th
[01:45] <sarnold> glue11: hah, thanks for raising this; I forgot I turned off unattended-upgrades on my laptop during the focal devel cycle
[01:45] <sarnold> glue11: maybe try sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades  -- if it says it's already on, maybe turn it off, then run it again and turn it on again?
[01:47] <glue11> sarnold: OK, I'll try it. Is there a way to test it after without waiting?
[01:49] <sarnold> glue11: nothing easy -- we're not going to publish a security update until monday, so you may not know until tuesday if this worked or not..
[01:49] <quadrathoch2> the command I gave you should give you the output glue11. hm on my pi, it is working (but I also update the 'normal' updates, not only security
[01:49] <sarnold> glue11: (well, I guess there's always a chance that there's a catastrophic problem that requires a weekend update, but those are very very rare)
[01:49] <sarnold> if you take the normal updates too, that might happen faster
[01:49] <glue11> I can try enabling normal updates
[01:50] <sarnold> you could also downgrade a package, but I don't like that idea very much..
[01:51] <glue11> What line do I change/add to get normal updates?
[01:52] <djustice> i have an old 16.04 install that's throwing "Releases file not found".. errors during apt upgrade.
[01:53] <sarnold> djustice: what mirror did you configure? does it still have 16.04?
[01:54] <quadrathoch2> glue11 //      "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-updates"; (remove the slashes)
[01:56] <SpeedrunnerG55> help, i cant move my mouse to the top of my screen or els it teleports tot he corner
[01:56] <glue11> OK so I did that. Ran sudo unattended-upgrade -d and it updated 1 package. Then I ran sudo apt update, and it says I have 28 new packages.
[01:57] <glue11> Is that normal?
[01:57] <glue11> Seems like no
[02:00] <quadrathoch2> really weird :/
[02:00] <Bashing-om> glue11: Providing your mirror is up2date: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/focal-changes/2020-June/date.html.
[02:16] <glue11> Bashing-om: so is something wrong with my mirror?
[02:18] <Bashing-om> glue11: Doubtfull there is anything "wrong" takes time for some mirrors to sync up with mother. See: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors .
[02:19] <sarnold> but some mirrors are worse than others :)
[02:19] <sarnold> still, *eventually* you ought to get updates ..
[02:22] <glue11> my sources.list has archive.ubuntu.com
[02:23] <glue11> I don't see that listed in the website from Bashing-om
[02:23] <sarnold> heh, that's the master, that's the one that the others are cloning
[02:28] <glue11> so i'm screwed?
[02:29] <Bashing-om> glue11: I have yet to see there is a problm :(
[02:31] <glue11> Bashing-om: if I run sudo unattended-upgrade -d and then immediately after sudo apt update, is it normal to get new packages available for install?
[02:31] <djustice> sarnold: yes, and us.archive.ubuntu
[02:34] <MoonKing1969> hello all. could anyone help me with displaying full path on nautilus/files
[02:34] <Bashing-om> glue11: "unattended-upgrade" is phased updates where only a certain percentage of what is available is released to a certain pertentage of the user base, Whereas apt is just "do it, please".
[02:34] <sarnold> djustice: pastebin your apt update output?
[02:44] <djustice> pastebin.com/0fY8CpQg
[02:45] <djustice> sarnold: ^
[02:46] <sarnold> djustice: aha! there's the problem. it isn't an 18.04 system; it's a 19.04 system. you haven't been getting any updates of any sort for five months: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2020-January/000253.html
[02:47] <sarnold> djustice: run sudo do-release-upgrade twice
[02:49] <Bashing-om> !disco | djustice
[02:54] <djustice> sarnold: thanks much. it's been awhile since i ubuntu'd.
[02:55] <sarnold> djustice: hehe, yeah, at least fivemonths is my guess :)
[03:15] <SynfulAck> avenger, Its a logitech g502 mouse. The slider is maxed already.
[03:19] <avenger> the 502 has dpi buttons. have you messed with them?
[03:21] <avenger> you need to use windows or osx apparently to set the settings/profiles in the mouse and then they're stored in the mouse itself, and you can use the functions in linux
[03:21] <avenger> allegedly.
[03:21] <sarnold> this may have support for that mouse if the dpi buttons don't go https://github.com/libratbag/libratbag/
[03:21] <sarnold> allegedly
[03:22] <avenger> for me, allegedly is short for "I googled this" ;)
[03:22] <sarnold> aww. here I thought it was a letterkenny reference.
[03:24] <avenger> sadly i need to watch it. i have failed you
[03:24] <sarnold> pitter patter
[03:44] <SynfulAck> avenger, sarnold any idea if i can use gnome boxes to create a windows vm and pass through the mouse to configure?
[03:44] <quadrathoch2> SynfulAck it should, if not you can also use virt-manager
[03:44] <sarnold> SynfulAck: I'd try the things that are packaged in the archive first, that's probably faster than installing a windows
[03:44] <SynfulAck> sarnold, what archive?
[03:45] <sarnold> SynfulAck: the ubuntu archive
[03:45] <sarnold> it'll probably take ten to twenty seconds to install and start piper and see if it works..
[03:46] <sarnold> how long will it take to download a windows iso? :)
[03:46] <SynfulAck> whats piper?
[03:46] <sarnold> the gui front end to the ratbag tool I mentioned
[03:46] <sarnold> s/the/a/g
[03:47] <SynfulAck> sarnold, I havent even begun to look at that. Im just checking to c if i can load a default profile cause everything on the mouse is customized and dpi switching is disabled.
[03:48] <sarnold> I just installed and ran it and found it couldn't touch my mouse..
[03:48] <sarnold> not bad for ~one minute of effort
[03:52] <SynfulAck> sarnold, idk how that software works but looking at https://github.com/libratbag/libratbag/tree/master/data/devices lists some of the g502 models so id assume it would work. Also im unsure if this will conflict with another piece of software I am running which allows me to change the scroll speed because that too was pathetic on gnome. :( . imwheel . It seems to disable mouse keys unless configured in some file. So much work for just two
[03:52] <SynfulAck> things lol....
[03:56] <sarnold> SynfulAck: heh, good question; it's been ~20 years since I've used imwheel, I don't remember much about it
[04:07] <Praeceps> Hey y'all. I'm trying to identify the cryptography in a file, takes the format of a 256 bit hexadecimal string with a dash after. I know i've seen it before in a ubuntu/linux installation before but where exactly escapes me, any ideas?
[04:08] <sarnold> $ echo hi | sha256sum
[04:08] <sarnold> 98ea6e4f216f2fb4b69fff9b3a44842c38686ca685f3f55dc48c5d3fb1107be4  -
[04:08] <sarnold> like that?
[04:08] <Praeceps> Exactly like that
[04:08] <Praeceps> That would explain where I've seen it then
[04:09] <Praeceps> big confirmation on my SHA256 hunch! Thanks :D
[04:11] <sarnold> you're welcome :)
[04:11] <sarnold> do note that this file format is pretty well established with md5sum, sha1sum, sha256sum, etc, so it could also be another hash of the same length output
[04:12] <sarnold> I don't know of any others but if you're doing a CTF this feels like the sort of thing they might be a smartass about and use blake2* or skein or something, you know? :)
[04:14] <Praeceps> Yeah it's a CTF
[04:14] <sarnold> nice nice
[04:14] <Praeceps> Good call, thanks for the heads up
[04:15] <sarnold> sometimes there's folks in ##crypto who are up for helping on CTFs; it's time for me to make some dinner and stop staring at the computer
[04:15] <sarnold> have fun :)
[04:15] <Praeceps> Thanks! enjoy your dinner :)
[04:15] <sarnold> :D
[04:38] <SynfulAck> sarnold, didnt even know about the piper frontend. I thought for a second I had to use this api and write something. I didnt try using piper without the library but so far the piper thing seems to be working despite weird bugs like having to apply several times to get things working.
[04:38] <SynfulAck> Also, i find it hard to believe but my dpi is at 12,000 right now sooo dunno if i believe that or that the gnome mouse settings are so bad thats what it takes. Thats also the max dpi i can go with piper.
[04:56] <SynfulAck> sarnold, thx though, i am 1 step closer.
[06:09] <dex1983> hi
[06:09] <dex1983> is it possible to install ubuntu desktop 20.04 on a software raid
[06:09] <dex1983> Is there an alternative installer
[08:04] <amuro> How to mount a usb stick if I plug it into the ubuntu server?
[08:07] <amuro> It didn't show up in fdisk -l neither
[08:13] <amuro> nevermind I can see it now but why the size is 900GB?
[08:13] <amuro> https://pastebin.com/45c0bgXT
[08:15] <seven-eleven> can I just do `sudo apt remove $(apt-forktracer)`?
[08:16] <seven-eleven> ehm I mean `sudo apt remove $(apt-forktracer | awk '{print $1}')`?
[08:16] <seven-eleven> or is that a bad idea
[08:18] <seven-eleven> apt-forktracer shows 182 packages after upgrading to ubuntu 20.04. i think last night I close the terminal without letting apt full-upgrade finish. i think it was around 90%
[08:19] <seven-eleven> but this morning I run autoremove, --fixbroken and full-upgrade again. i think all packages upgraded but i want to get rid of apt-forktracer packages
[09:41] <halfcs> Hi I am on an Ubuntu-Mate, which port do I need to open to allow the weather applet in the task bar to retrieve the weather data from weather.com?
[09:44] <Shillos> I think weather.com can give you the answer to that.
[09:45] <Shillos> If you don't know the port number, then try also asking them.
[09:45] <halfcs> Shillos: already tried but they asked me to sign up to get even to the documentation of their api :/
[09:48] <Shillos> So if it must be the only way. I would do that. Most of the time most apps give you the opportunity to use their api. Maybe there are some things that they explain more in their documentation.
[09:50] <Shillos> I made a weather app once with them for e107 cms and it needed the api took me sometime but it worked.
[10:22] <panorain> Hello bigtimers.
[11:29] <pinheadmz1> running ubuntu 20... i have a .desktop file and i have selected "allow execute file as program" but it doesnt work, still always open in text editor
[11:34] <stompykins> uh
[11:34] <stompykins> why dont you edit it in a terminal
[11:35] <stompykins> pinheadmz1: what desktop are you using?
[11:35] <stompykins> you'd have better luck asking in the DE irc
[11:35] <stompykins> if youre using xfce i could probably help tho :P
[11:36] <pinheadmz1> gnome i think
[11:36] <pinheadmz1> just vanilla ubuntu
[11:36] <pinheadmz1> Linux pintu 5.4.0-37-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 3 18:57:02 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[11:36] <stompykins> hmmm
[11:37] <stompykins> well
[11:37] <stompykins> i dont think update-alternatives would fix it
[11:37] <stompykins> and i dont know if gnome has a way to edit mime types
[11:38] <stompykins> oh i see
[11:38] <stompykins> i read that wrong pinheadmz1
[11:38] <pinheadmz1> the file is start-tor-browser.desktop and i *can* execute it from termiinsl
[11:38] <stompykins> you must've marked them to always open with a text editor
[11:38] <pinheadmz1> s/terminal
[11:38] <pinheadmz1> oh ok
[11:39] <pinheadmz1> hm how to undo?
[11:39] <stompykins> sudo apt-get install --reinstall shared-mime-info
[11:39] <stompykins> probably
[11:41] <stompykins> pinheadmz1: any luck?
[11:41] <pinheadmz1> dang realy?
[11:42] <pinheadmz1> not just a property on the singke file
[11:42] <stompykins> it should reset your mimetype settings
[11:42] <pinheadmz1> ill try
[11:42] <pinheadmz1> ty one sec
[11:42] <stompykins> well you could try sudo dpkg-reconfigure shared-mime-info but i'd think it would do the same, really :P
[11:45] <pinheadmz1> hm yeah no luck weird
[11:45] <pinheadmz1> even if i set default "open with" to "run software"
[11:46] <stompykins> seriously?
[11:47] <stompykins> what happens if you chmod +x it and run it in a terminal?
[11:47] <pinheadmz1> it works fine if i execute form terminal
[11:47] <pinheadmz1> just not GUI double clicky
[11:47] <stompykins> now this certain desktop file.. the Exec= line is correct right?
[11:47] <stompykins> and does it work if you execute it from the application launcher?
[11:48] <BluesKaj> 'Morning all
[11:48] <stompykins> i did some googling pinheadmz1
[11:48] <pinheadmz1> exec line looks right
[11:48] <stompykins> read this
[11:48] <stompykins> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1187934/cannot-launch-desktop-files-opens-with-text-editor-instead
[11:48] <pinheadmz1> ooh thanks lemme see
[11:48] <stompykins> actually this might be your problem too
[11:48] <stompykins> https://itsfoss.com/shell-script-opens-text-editor/
[11:49] <stompykins> could be a gnome-files setting that does it
[11:49] <stompykins> where it displays an executable instead of launching it..
[11:49] <stompykins> double check your gnome-files preferences first
[11:49] <stompykins> since it launches in a terminal and not in gnome, that could totally be the problem pinheadmz1
[11:50] <pinheadmz1> tha was it thank you!!!!
[11:50] <stompykins> aw yay
[11:50] <stompykins> <3
[11:50] <pinheadmz1> yeah preferences in file manager
[11:50] <stompykins> no problem homie
[11:51] <stompykins> yea i figured it was something simple
[11:53] <stompykins> pinheadmz1: feel free to hit me up if you have any other problems
[11:53] <stompykins> im not a gnome user but i'll do my best to help if i can
[11:55] <pinheadmz1> well i do have a complicated DNS issue
[11:56] <pinheadmz1> basically i have a DNS resolver that i run on an IP
[11:56] <pinheadmz1> but when i set DNS to that IP in the GUI settings, it jsut doesnt work
[11:56] <pinheadmz1> and itll work if i manually edit /etc/resolv.conf
[11:56] <pinheadmz1> but in this version of ubuntu that file gets overwritten on boot :-/
[11:59] <BluesKaj> pinheadmz1, dns should be set in /etc/systemd/resolved.conf
[12:20] <pinheadmz1> BluesKaj: so when i restart resolved or logout/in /etc/resolv.conf gets overwritten with 127.0.0.53
[12:20] <pinheadmz1> it ignores the settings in /etc/systemd/resolv.conf
[12:20] <pinheadmz1> and the wifi settings in the GUI ar elike, i dunno what the deal is with that
[12:20] <pinheadmz1> at this point i think im going to just disable "NetworkManager" or whatver the 127.0.0.53 proxy is
[12:20] <pinheadmz1> i was just hoping the GUI settings would just work
[12:21] <BluesKaj> NM config is probly over writing
[12:23] <pinheadmz1> going for this approach https://askubuntu.com/questions/1091653/how-do-i-disable-network-manager-permanently
[12:24] <pinheadmz1> death by fire, network manager!
[12:24] <pinheadmz1> brb, restarting...
[13:21] <pinheadmz1> BluesKaj: so i got this to work by editing /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
[13:22] <pinheadmz1> and adding dns=false
[13:22] <pinheadmz1> or dns=none sorry
[13:22] <pinheadmz1> then network manager stopping f---ing with my /etc/resolv.conf
[13:22] <BluesKaj> pinheadmz1, ok , good to know
[13:23] <pinheadmz1> still kinda wish the GUI settings pane worked
[13:23] <pinheadmz1> but more i use linux desktop
[13:23] <pinheadmz1> more i learn everything is a work around :-)
[13:25] <BluesKaj> I used ifupdown and commented renderer in netplan, and edited /etc/resolv.conf without NM in the mix for a while, but it's an etherenrt setting , not wifi
[13:26] <BluesKaj> ethernet rather

[14:37] <doomlist3> ubuntu netboot what's the easy way to learn it
[14:37] <doomlist3> do i need 2 pcs or just one?
[14:37] <younder> a dec vt220  terminal emulator
[14:37] <doomlist3> for a minimal iso download size
[14:38] <nbusrone> younder : runing as vm vbox for testing
[14:40] <younder> nbusrone, I'm sure it works fine. Do you have set it up to the correct display and what is it communicating to.
[14:41] <doomlist3> how is pxe different from netboot images
[14:41] <nbusrone> younder : communicating ? what do you mean ?
[14:42] <younder> nbusrone, well a terminal needs a screen and a serial source.
[14:44] <younder> nbusrone, Don't worry, I am used to stabbing in the bind at a problem i only half comprehend at a person I don't know.
[14:45] <nbusrone> younder : sorry , I am new learning on ubuntu so , i may not able to understand how it works
[14:45] <doomlist3> younder: nbusrone hi
[14:47] <younder> doomlist3, You a guinea or something ;)
[14:48] <quadrathoch2> doomlist3 with an netboot image, you need to 'burn' it to an usb stick, go to the pc and boot from it. with a pxe boot, you just tell the pc where to find the image
[14:48] <younder> nbusrone, Ok knowing you are a newbie helps.
[14:49] <nbusrone> younder : I did find the icon and drag into the top panel "gnome-screenshot --interactive" now I just want to click and auto save without asking for whole desktop.
[14:51] <lotuspsychje> MonkeyDust: ; )
[14:51] <MonkeyDust> hi lotuspsychje
[14:53] <younder> nbusrone, like this https://askubuntu.com/questions/1074289/ubuntu-18-04-shiftprintscreen-doesnt-offer-a-save-window-after-a-recent-upd?
[14:59] <tomreyn> doomlist3: pxe is a protocol which most mainboard (BIOS/UEFI) and network interface firmwares understand, allowing them to load and run a boot loader over a network connection.
[15:00] <doomlist3> tomreyn: do i have pxe support , which cmd to check if so
[15:00] <tomreyn> i.e. you don't need to prepare / attach storage to the computer to be booted this way.
[15:00] <tomreyn> doomlist3: check your mainboard manual
[15:00] <doomlist3> no mnaual sorry , linux cmd
[15:01] <tomreyn> doomlist3: what are you trying to do?
[15:01] <doomlist3> if there is no "storage" then after install how will the os boot?
[15:01] <doomlist3> clearly OS without storage is absurd
[15:02] <doomlist3> i don't know what you mean
[15:02] <doomlist3> os needs storage to isntall itself somewhere
[15:02] <doomlist3> as the root system has to exist somewhere
[15:02] <tomreyn> you can have a system always boot from the network via pxe, and have persistent storage attached via network mounts
[15:02] <doomlist3> does the OS exist in the cloud?
[15:02] <doomlist3> if there is no storage then where is the os stored?
[15:03] <tomreyn> on some other computer, usually one in the same LAN
[15:03] <doomlist3> ok so it's the user's pc
[15:03] <nbusrone> younder : where can I report bug on application ? gnome-season-flashback ?
[15:05] <MonkeyDust> !bug | nbusrone
[15:05] <tomreyn> doomlist3: another (probably the most common) use case for pxe is to just boot OS installers from the network via PXE *once* so as to install an OS on their (locally attached) persistent storage without needing to walk to all of these computers and attach bootable media.
[15:06] <tomreyn> doomlist3: so, knowing this, do you have an ubuntu question?
[15:06] <younder> nbusrone, ubuntu-bug
[15:06] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: before filing bugs, adviced to ask here first, maybe volunteers know a relevant bug or solution
[15:09] <younder> lotuspsychje, and here he is :)
[15:10] <lotuspsychje> younder: i mean ask/re-ask
[16:12] <lesshaste> I am trying to add a new column to a dataframe using:weekend = (pd.Series(testdf.index.weekday) // 5 == 1).astype(int)
[16:12] <lesshaste> testdf = testdf.assign("weekend flag"= weekend.values)
[16:12] <lesshaste> but it says SyntaxError: keyword can't be an expression
[16:16] <tomreyn> lesshaste: this doesn't seem to be an ubuntu support topic?
[16:26] <younder> cough, a lung sandwich, he said, before direction attention to global warming,
[16:34] <conr> curious if anybody uses macOS devices with ubuntu running nas, plex, torrents, vpn... etc.
[16:36] <conr> do you prefer to screen share into it or actually have dedicated monitor for it?
[16:36] <oerheks> conr, wrong channel to poll, do you have an actual support issue?
[16:37] <conr> oerheks: no then.
[16:39] <tomreyn> !discuss
[16:40] <conr> thanks
[16:49] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : thanks , at ubuntu season flashback bug on 18.04 would be the clock setting or indicator panel which did not show full date and time.I am not sure whether it's the indicator or gnome-season-flashback issue. https://imgur.com/DJBBIr0 vs https://imgur.com/w7vhJjC
[16:52] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: did you try tweaking clock/date with dconf-editor?
[16:52] <oerheks> gnome-tweak-tool gives those options too. date, week, seconds..
[16:53] <oerheks> !ff
[16:53] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : did that
[16:54] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : at Unity it works well but not in gnome flashback metacity
[16:55] <oerheks> you might need to logout/login to let those changes take effect?
[16:55] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: are you saying dconf does not influence/changes it?
[16:57] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : yep , for the full indicator .dconf only change the clock but not the indicator applet complete
[16:58] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: is this the default clock from flashback, or a gnome extension?
[16:59] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : default clock
[16:59] <lotuspsychje> ok
[17:01] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : not that important but somehow I think if It can fix it easily. I encounter different cases where gnome flashback cannot right click and arrange icon + new document and etc Maybe 20.04 is still new https://www.pc-freak.net/blog/linux-gnome-flashback-missing-desktop-icons-howto-fix/
[17:07] <lesshaste> tomreyn,  wrong window, apologies
[17:07] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: lemme go test that holdon
[17:10] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : they fix the icon display and right click on 18.04 but not on 20.04 while the indicator clock applet complete is fine on 20.04 but not at 18.04. :(
[17:12] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: installed flashback and i see only time
[17:12] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : though it some major problem on 18.04 but on 20.04 right click no document able to create and arrange.I will wait for the updates.Revert back to gnome unity.
[17:12] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: date tweak is enabled in dconf but it doesnt add it
[17:13] <oerheks> you might need to logout/login to let those dconf changes take effect?
[17:13] <nbusrone> oerheks : did that too
[17:14] <lotuspsychje> think flashback uses its own stuff
[17:14] <oerheks> i did not know gnome flashback  was still an option
[17:14] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : try adding clock on 18.04 , it does show full date
[17:14] <lotuspsychje> cause clicking the time, opens a time/date window
[17:14] <oerheks> gnome2 limitations.. i wonder if that ever will be 'fixed'
[17:14] <nbusrone> oerheks : I prefer older customize Ubuntu interface  :)
[17:15] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: try it perhaps with installing unity desktop on ?
[17:15] <lotuspsychje> 20.04
[17:16] <nbusrone> oerheks : though it's not something important that interferes with current works.
[17:17] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje :  20.04 clock works , but right click no document , not able to create and arrange icon.If you test it again.
[17:17] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: 20.04 has desktop icons disabled by default
[17:17] <lotuspsychje> thats a feature now
[17:18] <lotuspsychje> nbusrone: again with dconf-editor, enable show desktop icons
[17:21] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje :  20.04 did show the icon but on right click , you cannot arrange the icon, it set to auto and new document doesn't work even i add https://vitux.com/add-new-document-back-to-the-right-click-menu-in-ubuntu-18-04/
[17:24] <frad> how do I opne a .rar file?
[17:25] <nbusrone> lotuspsychje : on desktop interface. new document not working but at nautilus filer manager works.I will wait for flashback to fix since 20.04 is new just release last month.
[17:41] <littlepython> hi there, jenkins:x:996:994:Jenkins Automation Server:/var/lib/jenkins:/bin/false
[17:41] <littlepython> i have this user
[17:41] <littlepython> and he doesnt have login
[17:41] <littlepython> how can i generate the ssh keys
[18:00] <pymagic> on ubuntu 20.04lts, when i try fractional scaling - the screen goes dark - anyone knows how to debug this? I've an nvidia card (driver 440)
[18:04] <EriC^^> littlepython: he doesnt have a shell selected currently, it's set to /bin/false
[18:07] <EriC^^> littlepython: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-ssh-keys-on-ubuntu-1604
[18:08] <littlepython> sure thanks EriC^^
[18:09] <EriC^^> no problem littlepython
[18:11] <littlepython> EriC^^ one more question
[18:11] <littlepython> error: cannot open .git/FETCH_HEAD: Permission denied
[18:12] <EriC^^> littlepython: what command are you running that's giving that?
[18:13] <littlepython> i am trying to run this
[18:13] <littlepython> https://dpaste.org/9ZMu#
[18:14] <littlepython> it runs as a jenkins user
[18:14] <EriC^^> littlepython: what is the output of "stat .git/FETCH_HEAD && id"
[18:14] <littlepython> also  i have added the jenkins user to the root group
[18:15] <EriC^^> littlepython: that seems like a bad idea, why not give him privileges based on what he needs only
[18:15] <EriC^^> via sudo or so
[18:15] <littlepython> "stat: cannot stat ‘.git/FETCH_HEAD’: No such file or directory"
[18:15] <littlepython> i dont find a file called FETCH_HEAD
[18:17] <EriC^^> littlepython: is it the home dir of jenkins?
[18:17] <littlepython> no its in /tmp
[18:17] <EriC^^> oh, so /tmp/.git
[18:18] <littlepython> yes i found the directory but i dont see a file called FETCH_HEAD
[18:20] <littlepython> EriC^^ I have cleared the directory.. now i get this error
[18:21] <littlepython> https://dpaste.org/YzLC
[18:23] <EriC^^> littlepython: no idea, seems like git didn't create it for some reason
[18:23] <frad> im using locate (command) to find files, can I use it to list directories?
[18:23] <EriC^^> littlepython: or maybe you need to create it first, then git can use it
[18:23] <EriC^^> littlepython: try 'mkdir /tmp/dsag-sap' then try running it again
[18:26] <EriC^^> frad: doesn't seem like locate supports dirs only
[18:28] <dtux> i often feel hesitant to install things that aren't offered thru apt (e.g. ledger-live)... is that unfounded?
[18:29] <oerheks> dtux, one should be carefull, yes, we have PPA's for private rerpositories.. and now we have snap too
[18:29] <oerheks> https://snapcraft.io/ledger-live-desktop
[18:30] <filifunky> guys I can't do a sudo apt update.  I get a ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'apt_pkg'
[18:30] <oerheks> have fun ( you will get updates with snaps, opposite of installing stuff manual )
[18:30] <filifunky> is this the right place to ask?
[18:30] <EriC^^> frad: this seems like a quick workaround "sudo strings /var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db | grep -E '^/.*dirname'"
[18:31] <dtux> oerheks: ah, nice! ty... what is the primary concern with manual? compatibility? security?
[18:31] <oerheks> filifunky, what did you change in your install, python?
[18:31] <oerheks> dtux, check of the source/maintainer, and most important to me, updates
[18:31] <filifunky> oerheks, yeah I've been trying to do some things with python...kind of a long story but I suspect my python situation is messed up
[18:32] <frad> thanks EriC^^
[18:32] <EriC^^> frad: or this "locate --null <dirname here> | xargs -r0 sh -c 'for i do [ -d "$i" ] && printf "%s\n" "$i"; done' sh {} +"
[18:32] <EriC^^> frad: no problem
[18:33] <filifunky> https://bpa.st/SNIQ
[18:35] <dtux> filifunky: do/did you ever `sudo pip`?
[18:36] <filifunky> dtux I believe so :(
[18:36] <oerheks> installed python2?
[18:36] <filifunky> oerheks I believe so as well
[18:38] <oerheks> filifunky, maybe ths page is your fix too
[18:38] <oerheks> https://linuxconfig.org/ubuntu-20-04-python-version-switch-manager
[18:38] <oerheks> a few steps and reboot..
[18:38] <oerheks> ( or remove python2.7)
[18:38] <filifunky> oerheks thanks!  digging in
[18:40] <EriC^^> filohuhum: is "python3-apt" installed?
[18:41] <EriC^^> try "apt-cache policy python3-apt"
[18:43] <filifunky> EriC^^: https://bpa.st/DL3Q
[18:43] <filifunky> looks like its installed
[18:45] <EriC^^> filifunky: what does 'dpkg -S apt_pkg' give for you? do the python3 file exist if you try 'ls <filename>' ?
[18:47] <filifunky> EriC^^ a lot of stuff:  https://bpa.st/4EPQ  thats just a portion
[18:48] <filifunky> EriC^^ I don't understand your second part.  I have a python file called morning3.py that I wrote if I do ls morning3.py it shows up...are you asking about a different file?
[18:48] <EriC^^> filifunky: i feel like you put "dpkg -S apt pkg" without the underscore
[18:49] <filifunky> EriC^^ ahh yes underscores don't show up for me sometimes in that chat
[18:49] <filifunky> EriC^^ https://bpa.st/LGVQ
[18:51] <EriC^^> filifunky: i think this is supposed to be the apt_pkg module /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt_pkg.cpython-38-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
[18:51] <EriC^^> does "ls -l /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt_pkg.cpython-38-x86_64-linux-gnu.so" show a file?
[18:53] <filifunky> yep! https://bpa.st/2TKQ
[18:54] <EriC^^> filifunky: very odd, you could try to reinstall python3-apt, it might help, sudo apt-get install --reinstall python3-apt
[18:55] <filifunky> EriC^^ same issue, going to try that tutorial i think that oerheks posted  https://bpa.st/4XIA
[18:56] <ima9rd> I have to restart systemd-resolved literally any time I lose network connectivity or reboot my server... anyone else experience this? The service itself seems to be running fine on boot, but no WAN traffic works until I restart resolved. (Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS)
[18:58] <ima9rd> I've tried disabling / replacing resolved, but network traffic still fails unless I run "systemctl restart systemd-resolved"
[19:03] <EriC^^> filifunky: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1242009/modulenotfounderror-no-module-named-apt-pkg-appears-in-various-commands
[19:03] <filifunky> EriC^^ thanks, digging in
[19:04] <EriC^^> filifunky: note the post by 'Gal'
[19:05] <oerheks> reinstall would overwrite the stuff python2 did..
[19:05] <oerheks> hmmz
[19:09] <filifunky> EriC^^ it workeddddddddddddd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[19:10] <filifunky> EriC^^ now comes the part where I try to do what might have messed it up in the first place
[19:10] <filifunky> EriC^^ I'm trying to run this program called rednotebook and I get this error:  https://bpa.st/7UFA
[19:11] <filifunky> EriC^^ when I had this before I tried using different versions of python and am afraid that just made my life more complicated.  Would you recommend I try a sudo apt install python3-gi?  or is this no longer an ubuntu problem?
[19:13] <EriC^^> filifunky: yeah, i'd try to install python3-gi
[19:13] <EriC^^> don't see the harm in it since it's in the repos i guess
[19:19] <filifunky> EriC^^ hmmm any thoughts here: https://bpa.st/ABNA
[19:20] <EriC^^> filifunky: how did you end up fixing the apt_pkg problem?
[19:20] <EriC^^> remove then reinstall?
[19:21] <filifunky> Eric^^ yep, did the first answer in that link you sent
[19:21] <filifunky> Eric^^ did the purge lol
[19:22] <EriC^^> :D
[19:22] <EriC^^> filifunky: try 'apt-get remove -s python-gi'  what does it say it wants to remove (that's just a simulation/dry-run)
[19:23] <EriC^^> if it's just that python-gi package, maybe try 'sudo apt-get purge python-gi && sudo apt-get install python-gi' maybe it fixes it too
[19:23] <filifunky> EriC^^ https://bpa.st/IYUA
[19:23] <filifunky> EriC^^ ok will do that
[19:23] <zutat> does 20.04 support booting from 32-bit uefi?
[19:25] <EriC^^> zutat: i doubt it, also the .list doesn't show any 32bit efi files http://releases.ubuntu.com/focal/ubuntu-20.04-desktop-amd64.list
[19:26] <filifunky> EriC^^ hmmm didn't work: https://bpa.st/IR3Q
[19:26] <EriC^^> zutat: you could always modify the iso and include the 32bit uefi
[19:27] <zutat> EriC^^: ok. thanks
[19:28] <EriC^^> filifunky: maybe it's using some different python than the repo one currently?
[19:29] <EriC^^> filifunky: what happens if you do 'python3' then type "import gi"
[19:31] <EriC^^> filifunky: this seems to have some info on it, https://askubuntu.com/questions/80448/what-would-cause-the-gi-module-to-be-missing-from-python
[19:32] <filifunky> EriC^^ check this out:  https://bpa.st/Q53A   when I use python 3.7.7 it won't work but when i use 3.8.2 (which i used oerheks link to assign 3.8 to python thanks!) it works
[19:33] <EriC^^> ah nice
[19:33] <EriC^^> filifunky: try to assign python3 to 3.8.2 i guess?
[19:34] <filifunky> EriC^^ ok! will try that
[19:36] <pymagic> My fractional scaling goes to a black screen in display. Any ideas on how to debug this?
[19:45] <lesshaste> in 18.04 how do I find "the menu"?
[19:45] <lesshaste> as in the instructions "Hold "Alt" when in the menu, this will switch the power off button into suspend button."
[19:47] <Jordan_U> lesshaste: My guess would be this: https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2012/01/shutdown-ubuntu.png.webp
[19:48] <lesshaste> Jordan_U, that doesn't offer suspect
[19:48] <filifunky> EriC^^ it works whew!  changes my entire weekend with this fixed.  Thanks a million and also oerheks that link was awesome
[19:49] <zutat> lesshaste: hold down power off to turn it to suspend
[19:50] <ima9rd> ok I partially figured out my issue, but don't know the root cause.... apparently resolved is selecting 127.0.0.1 as the nameserver when my server boots, but properly selects the nameserver I specified in netplan after restarting systemd-resolved. anyone know why this would occur?
[20:11] <EriC^^> filifunky: great! no problem
[20:14] <oerheks> filifunky, have fun!
[20:33] <PETURBG> device tap0 is already a member of a bridge; can't enslave it to bridge br0.
[20:42] <Wicked> I think I've been hacked and someone is running crypto miners on my system. Any help of next steps?
[20:42] <Wicked> The system is so bogged down I can barely log in.(login process has been stalled for a few mins, previously system load was like 50.00+)
[20:43] <ThinkT510> Wicked: backup any files you need and reinstall
[20:43] <Ben64> log in on console or over ssh?
[20:43] <PETURBG> device tap0 is already a member of a bridge; can't enslave it to bridge br0.
[20:43] <Wicked> @Ben64, ssh
[20:44] <Ben64> oh you're trying ssh already
[20:44] <Ben64> reboot first
[20:44] <Wicked> @ThinkT510, *sigh* this machine is super old(started as 14.04 and I've upgraded via apt since then) so much work to reinstall
[20:45] <Wicked> @Ben64, I'm afraid if I reboot some additional "hacks" could come into effect.
[20:45] <Ben64> why do you think its hacks to begin with
[20:46] <Wicked> I logged in and saw user "test" running 2 "bash" scripts both using max cpu. It also seemed user "test" was running a "/sbin/systemd"
[20:48] <Ben64> disconnect network and reboot
[20:48] <Wicked> Now that I'm back at home I can't seem to login via ssh
[20:48] <oerheks> pull networkcable and reinstall
[20:48] <Ben64> idk i'd want to find out what they did and how they did
[20:48] <Ben64> if it's in fact true
[20:49] <Wicked> Only thing I can think of is plex/deluge
[20:49] <Wicked> No idea if there are any recent exploits for them but they are exposed to the open net
[20:49] <Ben64> unlikely
[20:49] <PETURBG> someone help
[20:50] <Wicked> But then they'd also need a local root exploit to add user "test"
[20:50] <PETURBG> device tap0 is already a member of a bridge; can't enslave it to bridge br0.
[20:50] <Wicked> Hmm
[20:51] <Wicked> I only worry it's actually a crypto locker shredding my files up lol
[20:51] <Wicked> That would...that would not be ideal lol
[20:55] <tomreyn> do you have out of band access?
[20:55] <tomreyn> Wicked: ^
[20:57] <Wicked> I got physical acceess not sure what oob access is
[20:57] <Wicked> I just unplugged it and hooked it up to my monitor. Gonna try to boot it
[20:57] <EriC^^> *BOOM*
[20:59] <Wicked> tomreyn, ^^
[21:00] <EriC^^> you could always boot a live usb to inpesct the damage
[21:00] <tomreyn> oh it's local to you, nice
[21:01] <tomreyn> right, don't boot it off the installed system, boot off a separate, known clean, system
[21:01] <Wicked> Too late lol
[21:01] <tomreyn> i don't know which plug you pulled, but you should have pulled both power and network plugs
[21:21] <frad> can anyone write 1/2 as one character?
[21:22] <EriC^^> ¼
[21:22] <EriC^^> ¾
[21:22] <frad> reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally funny...
[21:22] <EriC^^> lol
[21:22] <EriC^^> just teasing a little
[21:22] <EriC^^> here you go ½
[21:23] <frad> thanks. What keys do I have to press?
[21:23] <frad> 1/2
[21:23] <EriC^^> ctrl+shift+u then bd <space>
[21:24] <frad> 
[21:24] <frad> 
[21:24] <EriC^^> try ctrl+shift+u "00bd" then space
[21:24] <frad> ½
[21:24] <frad> wait
[21:25] <frad> how in the f)$* am I supposed to remember that combination?
[21:25] <EriC^^> frad: my irc client has a list of characters
[21:25] <EriC^^> window > character chart, that's where i got it from

[21:26] <oerheks> PETURBG, you might want to reask in #ubuntu-server ..
[21:27] <frad> EriC^^, but you memorized the key composition, correct?
[21:27] <EriC^^> which one? no i dont use the 1/2 thing
[21:27] <PETURBG> very bad rom ubuntu
[21:27] <EriC^^> i dont really have any unicode memorized, but it shouldnt be too hard
[21:28] <EriC^^> frad: you mean the ctrl+shift+u part?
[21:28] <EriC^^> just remember it's for "unicode"
[21:29] <frad> ok, got it
[21:29] <frad> 
[21:31] <Wicked> Doesnt seem like they have persistence, rebooted and I don't see my cpu spiking
[21:32] <EriC^^> Wicked: did you do "file /sbin/systemd" or such
[21:32] <Wicked> EriC^^, the file was in sbin but I'm not sure it was systemd
[21:32] <Wicked> That was going off memory
[21:33] <EriC^^> Wicked: when was the user test added? i think you can figure it out from /etc/passwd
[21:33] <Wicked> Looking around a bit, it looks like they logged in from italy(mob-37-176-46-11.net.vodafone.it)
[21:33] <Wicked> EriC^^, turns out I created the user test a long time ago
[21:33] <EriC^^> aha
[21:34] <Wicked> lol
[21:34] <EriC^^> tbh it was crossing my mind xD
[21:34] <Wicked> But it's got a cron of /tmp/.bash/bash
[21:34] <Wicked> Which doesn't exist anymore
[21:35] <EriC^^> oh
[21:35] <Wicked> * * * * * /tmp/.bash/bash
[21:35] <Wicked> ls: cannot access '/tmp/.bash/bash': No such file or directory
[21:35] <EriC^^> do you have an MTA installed? it would have mailed you the output of the cron job
[21:35] <Wicked> Wish I could have gotten access without the reboot
[21:36] <Wicked> umm Would that be in /var somewhere?
[21:36] <Wicked> User test also has no bash_history
[21:36] <EriC^^> Wicked: yeah /var/spool/mail
[21:39] <EriC^^> Wicked: if you wanted you could trace the first run of the cron job using the syslog.gz logs
[21:39] <Wicked> EriC^^, Thanks. Looks like there was another cron that is now gone
[21:39] <Wicked> Subject: Cron <test@Ether> /tmp/fld2
[21:39] <Wicked> So they worked out of /tmp for sure
[21:40] <EriC^^> Wicked: zgrep "CRON.*(test)" /var/log/syslog*.gz
[21:41] <Wicked> :o
[21:41] <Wicked> EriC^^, /var/log/syslog.5.gz:Jun 15 06:26:01 Ether CRON[27288]: (test) CMD (/tmp/.x/upd >/dev/null 2>&1)
[21:41] <Wicked> ls: cannot access '/tmp/.x/upd': No such file or directory
[21:44] <EriC^^> Wicked: what's currently in test's cron? crontab -l
[21:45] <EriC^^> Wicked: maybe also look for hidden files in places they can put them, /home/test and possibly /var/tmp for example
[21:52] <charms> I have 3 SSDs. One has 220GB left, the other two 250GB left. I would like to use all the space and have good sequential reads. Could I spread my home drive across two raid0 arrays? raid0 with 3x220GB and raid0 with 2x30GB. I know RAID0 has risks but they are mitigated here.
[21:52] <Wicked> EriC^^, CUrrent cron's for test are:
[21:52] <Wicked> * * * * * /tmp/.bash/bash
[21:53] <Wicked> Noting of interest in /var/log
[21:55] <charms> Could I just use 3 devices in btrfs? it says online that they will be automatically striped
[22:30] <pyraindrop> anyone can help me with scaling issues in display on 20.04lts - screen goes black
[22:37] <oerheks> pyraindrop, scaling 4K down ?
[22:54] <oerheks> must b crossposting ..
[22:54] <oerheks> good luck pyraindrop !
[23:15] <dex1983> hi
[23:16] <dex1983> I am using proxmox https://pastebin.com/H75LZVQ7 what I could do in ubuntu that the guest agent qemu will run?
[23:16] <younder> Any queations?
[23:23] <tomreyn> dex1983: your ubuntu version? installed how? what's the output of "journalctl -xe" after the service fails to start (on a pastebin)?
[23:23] <dex1983> output of tomreyn is pastebin above, 20.04 lts
[23:23] <tomreyn> dex1983: my output looks differently :)
[23:24] <dex1983> ;) great
[23:24] <tomreyn> "journalctl -xe" is not what you posted
[23:25] <tomreyn> i mean what you posted is not the output of "journalctl -xe"
[23:26] <dex1983> ups sorry https://pastebin.com/8FJ9KPma
[23:29] <tomreyn> "installed how?"
[23:30] <dex1983> ah solved
[23:30] <dex1983> I had to shutdwon the machine
[23:30] <dex1983> now it works
[23:33] <Jordan_U> dex1983: The problem might have been that you were trying to start a service by directly running the init scripts, rather than using "systemctl start SERVICENAME_HERE".
[23:33] <Jordan_U> dex1983: On reboot, systemd started the service itself, as it was presumably configured to do.
