| loxie | anyone suggest a iteration of linux for (32bit) an BenQ Joybook(Prehistoric laptop lol; its my late dads so need to get it going) | 01:43 |
| sarnold | loxie: what's your goal? | 01:43 |
| loxie | boot find photos transer to external via bash | 01:44 |
| catbeard | what's the easiest way to get the CAS timing and speed e.g. PC4-XXXX of my existing RAM so I can upgrade to bigger memory capacity | 01:44 |
| loxie | browse windows files from live linux | 01:44 |
| catbeard | my board can support 32G ram | 01:44 |
| catbeard | e.g. in Terminal | 01:44 |
| catbeard | right now all i know is that it's DDR4-2400MHz 2x4GB | 01:45 |
| sarnold | loxie: can you remove the drives and plug them into an external reader on a machine you've already got running? that might be easier | 01:45 |
| catbeard | in a desktop | 01:45 |
| sarnold | loxie: do you know if the system is 32 bit or 64 bit? | 01:45 |
| loxie | 32 | 01:45 |
| loxie | and yeah can do that (plug drive in my pc) | 01:46 |
| sarnold | loxie: if you want to try the live image route, 18.04 LTS is probably what I'd try first | 01:46 |
| loxie | but thought id give live usb a go | 01:46 |
| sarnold | makes senes, taking nothing apart :) | 01:46 |
| sarnold | but old machines are sometimes really frustrating to work with, too :/ | 01:46 |
| loxie | lol | 01:46 |
| loxie | amen | 01:46 |
| sarnold | catbeard: I think I'd try the dmidecode tool first; the manpage doesn't say it can do it, but it feels like a good chance | 01:47 |
| loxie | thanks sarnold and catbeard | 01:48 |
| catbeard | sarnold: so https://i.imgur.com/jgtCcxT.png .. does this mean i can get another 8G stick or 2 16G sticks, it says maximum capacity on the system board but not on the memory banks | 01:53 |
| catbeard | only 1 stick installed 8GB | 01:53 |
| catbeard | the other bank is empty | 01:53 |
| catbeard | or does that mean i'm actually capped for the entire pc at 8GB of RAM no matter how i mix them | 01:54 |
| catbeard | it's an AMD A9-9430 RADEON R5 (2C+3G) | 01:55 |
| sarnold | catbeard: excellent question; you might have success here https://www.crucial.com/store/advisor | 01:55 |
| sarnold | hah, I just selected some random gigabyte mobo to see how it does, and crucial no longer sells ddr2 ram | 01:57 |

| rjwiii | Ubuntu 20.04 ... Skype can't find my audio device ... Any help? | 02:29 |
| yotux | rjwii what audio devices are listed? | 02:29 |
| rjwiii | yotux: Several for HDMI, which I don't have hooked up ... I have speakers connected to the onboard sound card that aren't listed ... | 02:32 |
| yotux | rjwiii --> how did you install skype | 02:33 |
| rjwiii | yotux: Ubuntu Software Center ... | 02:33 |
| sarnold | rjwiii: sometimes running pavucontrol is enough for people to spot the problem and sort it out | 02:33 |
| rjwiii | sarnold: I did that ... Skype doesn't show up ... | 02:34 |
| oerheks | softwarecenter > installed > skype > PERMISSIONS | 02:35 |
| sarnold | rjwiii: oh :( | 02:36 |
| yotux | rjwii: what are the sound setting in skype | 02:36 |
| rjwiii | oerheks: No PERMISSIONS button ... :( | 02:36 |
| rjwiii | yotux: Speakers: Default device | 02:39 |
| yotux | are you using analog speakers? | 02:40 |
| rjwiii | yotux: Yes ... plugged into the sound card ... | 02:40 |
| yotux | rjwii: sound works outside of skpye? | 02:41 |
| rjwiii | yotux: yes ... watching TV now, system sounds are fine & you tube is fine ... | 02:42 |
| yotux | rjwii: there is a drop down on that defualt device what are your options? | 02:43 |

| yotux | rjwiii: Are you using Gnome | 02:46 |
| rjwiii | yotux: Ubuntu 20.04 default install. | 02:46 |
| yotux | rjwiii: that would be Gnome | 02:47 |
| yotux | rjwiii: when you click on sound control what do you see | 02:47 |
| rjwiii | yotux: My system is playing through "Line Out (Built-In-Audio" | 02:48 |
| yotux | rjwiii: that is what you need to have skype using also | 02:49 |
| rjwiii | yotux: That option is not in the Skype list ... | 02:49 |
| yotux | rjwiii: her is what happens when I go through the audio settings | 02:52 |
| yotux | rjwiii: photo https://pasteboard.co/JjdQk6c.png | 02:52 |
| sarnold | oh flatpak? that might explain why you didn't see permissions on it via the other interface | 02:54 |
| yotux | rjwiii: I'm also running fedora not ubuntu desktop sorry, not sure why your skype install doesn't show you proper audio settings | 02:54 |
| yotux | sarnold: I think that he is using the Ubuntu software store, I don't have access to that | 02:54 |
| tatertotz | rjwiii: does you sound function as expected "outside" of skype???? | 02:55 |
| sarnold | yotux: oh! | 02:55 |
| yotux | sarnold: Flatpak was the best way for me to show him what I am seeing via skype native package | 02:55 |
| sarnold | good thing I'm done for the day :) heh | 02:55 |
| rjwiii | tatertotz: yes. | 02:56 |
| yotux | tatertotz: user says yes, watching youtube | 02:56 |
| tatertotz | rjwiii: if so..consider you version of skype and it's source | 02:56 |
| tatertotz | rjwiii: do you know what version of skype you have this issue with?...you should find out...have you tried other sources?... | 02:57 |
| rjwiii | tatertotz: install from a package from Skype? | 02:57 |
| rjwiii | tatertotz: Skype version: 8.62.0.85 | 02:57 |
| yotux | rjwiii: If you goto help, and about skype it will tell the ver. | 02:57 |

| rjwiii | tatertotz: no ... that is the version from the repository | 02:59 |
| tatertotz | rjwiii: try other versions/sources | 03:01 |
| yotux | tatertotz: do you have to get skype via a snap ion ubuntu? | 03:01 |

| futureRich | hello can i ask a qustion? | 05:42 |
| futureRich | there is a way to install all app in kali linux? | 05:44 |
| tatertotz | no | 05:46 |
| futureRich | :( | 05:46 |
| futureRich | there is smart guy who can do it? | 05:46 |
| futureRich | there is no smart guy who can do it? | 05:46 |
| leftyfb | !kali | futureRich | 05:47 |
| ubottu | futureRich: The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle) | 05:47 |
| perroud | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 05:48 |
| futureRich | all app in kali can be installed to ubuntu | 05:48 |
| futureRich | :( | 05:48 |
| futureRich | it is only linux app | 05:48 |
| futureRich | leftyfb: | 05:48 |
| perroud | one by one, no? why no via brew? | 05:48 |
| leftyfb | futureRich: we cannot support kali or it's apps | 05:48 |
| futureRich | it is not kali’s app :( it is linux app | 05:49 |
| futureRich | but is is preinstalled | 05:49 |
| futureRich | only | 05:49 |
| leftyfb | futureRich: to install apps in ubuntu, run: sudo apt install <package name> | 05:49 |
| leftyfb | futureRich: we can only support installing "linux apps" that are available in the official Ubuntu repositories | 05:50 |
| perroud | many packages can be installed via apt, snap or, if you want a bleeding edge apps, brew. | 05:50 |
| futureRich | perroud: brew install something? perroud ? | 05:51 |
| perroud | if you know the all packages, hellyeah. but, into ubuntu, the best way: sudo apt install <package>, indeed. | 05:51 |
| futureRich | ok thanks but i recommend to make something that can install all app in kali at once | 05:52 |
| futureRich | only one command | 05:53 |
| futureRich | with only one command like : sudo apt-get install all-kali | 05:53 |
| perroud | futureRich, git clone to get katoolin3 and have phun. | 05:55 |
| futureRich | i can do it with katoolin3? | 05:56 |
| perroud | go to github and readme.md | 05:57 |
| perroud | anyway, my unique recommendation, enable the universe repository into ubuntu | 05:58 |
| futureRich | thanks perroud i will try it | 05:58 |
| futureRich | :) | 05:58 |
| leftyfb | futureRich: perroud: please take the kali/kali apps/linux apps discussion elsewhere. #kali-linux is probably a good place | 05:58 |
| futureRich | leftyfb: using brain. it is app instead of kali os :( | 05:59 |
| perroud | leftyfb, I'm talking about apps into ubuntu environment. thanks. | 05:59 |
| perroud | futureRich, got to github and read the instructions to install into ubuntu environment. ubuntu 20.04 is the best distro, of course. | 06:00 |
| futureRich | thansk perroud :) | 06:01 |
| perroud | ah, one thing | 06:01 |
| perroud | use snap to install python. if you can, enable the automatic kernel updates, using the ubuntu account. | 06:02 |
| futureRich | ok perroud :) | 06:02 |
| croepha2 | So, lets say I want the binaries of a package, but I don't want them configured (ie, like I don't want setup scripts to run, or setup the service to run automatically)... Is there a way to apt install a package and have it skip configuration for a package? | 06:27 |
| cluelessperson | When using a touch tablet | 06:34 |
| cluelessperson | sometimes it does this thing where it selects text or drags instead of just clicking | 06:34 |

| tatertotz | croepha2: sure...since configuration is a part of the installation procedure...simply don't install it...BAM! ..no configuration | 06:37 |

| bewees | i have both desktop and ubuntu server in my LAN, but the one with interfaces is a server | 10:16 |
| tomreyn | 18.04+ server defaults to systemd-networkd, 18.04+ desktop defaults to network manager | 10:17 |
| tomreyn | and server uses netplan for network configuration by default | 10:17 |
| bewees | hm its a long time i installed it the first time, not sure why I switched to interfaces | 10:18 |
| tomreyn | but configuration via interfaces file is still supported | 10:18 |
| BluesKaj | 'Morning all | 10:18 |
| bewees | i think i had trouble to configure vlans and bridges and with interfaces i had success | 10:18 |
| tomreyn | i don't know what's the state with netplan and bridghes, there used to be dragons | 10:18 |
| tomreyn | -h | 10:19 |
| tomreyn | bewees: so i've copied the relevant parts to this pastebin: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/46MZqjcwKN/ | 10:22 |
| bewees | i don't understand this part "This method may be used to obtain network interface configuration via stateful DHCPv6 with dhclient." | 10:23 |
| === ChattyMan2 is now known as ChattyMan | ||
| tomreyn | bewees: the main difference between "auto" and "dhcp" seems to be that "auto" receives configuration via RDNSS and additional configuration via stateless DHCPv6, whereas "dhcp" receives configuration via stateful DHCPv6 with dhclient | 10:25 |
| tomreyn | dhclient is a software, as is rdnssd, you'll need one of those if you're going to use stateless or stateful dhcpv6, i thnk | 10:26 |
| bewees | so I need to figure out if the dhclient hook i want to use is stateful or stateless. my guess is stateless, because it uses if and up hooks? | 10:26 |
| bewees | this is the hook I mean for dhcpv6 prefix delegation https://wiki.debian.org/IPv6PrefixDelegation#Assigning_the_prefix_to_another_interface | 10:26 |
| tomreyn | whether you'll do stateless or stateful dhcpv6 probably depends on what your dhcp server does. | 10:26 |
| tomreyn | and on whether it does RDNSS | 10:27 |
| tomreyn | or RA rather | 10:27 |
| bewees | i think it's stateless dhcpv6, it just sends out the PD to my downstream router, i think its not doing stateful IP assignments. the downstream router's WAN interface uses auto | 10:28 |
| bewees | so I think i have to use inet6 manual, because the dhclient hook manually changes the settings with if and up | 10:28 |
| tomreyn | maybe the easiest option is to just try it | 10:28 |
| bewees | before I asked i tried all variants without success :-) | 10:29 |
| tomreyn | i see. i'm still quite a noob in terms of ipv6, i'm afraid. | 10:29 |
| tomreyn | maybe someone else aroudn here is better at helping out there | 10:29 |
| bewees | but its good to know that we figured out that I don't need inet6 dhcp | 10:29 |
| tomreyn | :) | 10:30 |
| Lmouse | lol | 10:30 |
| bewees | also im not sure if I have to extrapolate to /64 from /59, /62 or /64. radvddump shows /59 and /64, quiet confusing https://dpaste.org/KFWU | 10:34 |
| bewees | at least my fritzbox shows /59 on the WAN interface | 10:34 |
| juanonymous | Hi guys i had a problem yesterday with filesystem. The issue was resolved with the help of mad guy, i forgot his nick. However i noticed that the process i really slow, so i reinstalled the os, since i couldnt find a fix but after reinstalling. Im directed to this screen | 10:53 |
| juanonymous | https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/QnyQDYjT/IMG20200725184818.jpg | 10:54 |
| tomreyn | juanonymous: the easiest fix for this is probably to reinstall again. some of configuration you made during installation must have failed, or you booted in a different boot mode than you installed in. | 10:56 |

| FutureRich | hello i m ubuntu user, but i need install app of kali, but i know that kali is not good to use because visual is not good. | 11:04 |
| BluesKaj | FutureRich, which app ? | 11:05 |
| FutureRich | so i can install all app of kali in ubuntu manually? | 11:05 |
| FutureRich | or almost | 11:06 |
| FutureRich | or 80% | 11:06 |
| BluesKaj | there might be an ubuntu equivalent | 11:06 |
| BluesKaj | FutureRich, not recommended, dependencies will be different, so the app won't work IMO. | 11:09 |

| leeijaw | hello, I got a new desktop and tried to install Ubuntu 20.04 but during installation, it cannot find my hard drive and complain my PC only has 8GB of storage. | 11:16 |
| leeijaw | https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201912-27625 | 11:16 |
| leeijaw | This is my PC and it says it was certified by Ubunu. | 11:17 |
| lotuspsychje | leeijaw: ubuntu wants 8GB+ space these days to be able to proceed | 11:17 |
| lotuspsychje | since 18.04 if i can recall | 11:17 |
| leeijaw | But I can boot into the live Ubuntu and it doesn't see my hard drive which is 512 GB of SSD | 11:18 |
| leeijaw | When I boot into the live Ubuntu "Try Ubuntu", it only shows my USB as the only block device out there. | 11:19 |
| === Gnexally0 is now known as Gnexally | ||
| lotuspsychje | leeijaw: is it an nvme? | 11:20 |
| leeijaw | there is only one /dev/sda which is my USB drive. This is definitely not right. | 11:20 |
| leeijaw | I don't know. I am out in the cafe with laptop now. | 11:21 |
| leeijaw | https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201912-27625 | 11:21 |
| leeijaw | The spec is pretty much the same as listed in the above link. | 11:22 |
| lotuspsychje | leeijaw: nvme yeah, try to click 'advanced partitioning' | 11:22 |
| leeijaw | The CPU is a i7 though. | 11:22 |
| lotuspsychje | !partitioning | leeijaw | 11:22 |
| ubottu | leeijaw: For help with partitioning a new install see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition | For partitioning programs, see !GParted (recommended) or !PartitionManager. Other partitioning topics include !fstab, !home, and !swap | 11:22 |
| WyZeGuY | instead of booting into live mode, try booting into Install | 11:23 |
| WyZeGuY | or when partitioning, try to delete all existing partitions first, and then install on the entire drive | 11:24 |
| leeijaw | I tried "booting into install" first it doesn't work so then I boot into the live to see what happened there. | 11:25 |
| BluesKaj | leeijaw, also contains a spinner drive ST500DM009-2F110A | 11:25 |
| leeijaw | My spec only has a SSD and there is no HDD | 11:26 |
| leeijaw | I did open GParted and it also shows only one USB drive. | 11:26 |
| WyZeGuY | did you try blowing in it? | 11:26 |
| BluesKaj | leeijaw, take a look at the disk spec in your list | 11:26 |
| quadrathoch2 | I guess that the SSD is in RAID mode and not AHCI :/ | 11:28 |
| tomreyn | leeijaw: ^ this would be the case if you bought it with windows pre-installed, not ubuntu | 11:29 |
| leeijaw | I will try your suggestions later when I am home since I am out. | 11:29 |
| leeijaw | Yes, it was pre-installed with Windows. I never heard of a PC preinstalled with linux here in my country. | 11:30 |
| leeijaw | I heard Free-DOS though. | 11:30 |
| leeijaw | I try to set up dual Windows and GNU/Linux setup. | 11:30 |
| leeijaw | My work requires me to have a Windows environment here and there. For example, SketchUp doesn't runs on GNU/Linux. | 11:31 |
| tomreyn | it probably would in a VM, but 3d performance would suffer | 11:33 |
| tomreyn | install windows first then, ubuntu second. | 11:33 |
| leeijaw | quadrathoch2: Do you suggest that I enter the BIOS setup and toggle some settings there? For example, the AHCI thing you just mentioned. | 11:34 |
| WyZeGuY | @leeijaw have you tried playonlinux? just found this, but haven't tested it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2wSXfnxMf0 | 11:34 |
| quadrathoch2 | leeijaw the AHCI mode should suffice. but idk if windows will need to be reinstalled after that :/ | 11:34 |
| quadrathoch2 | i also wanted to point out that there is an option for wine, but I didn't recommend it, as it's stuff for business, so it should rather work perfectly than some hacky way to install it on linux | 11:35 |
| WyZeGuY | it's been a while since i've used it, but wine used to piss me off | 11:36 |
| muh2000 | hi all | 11:38 |
| muh2000 | when i execute a binary with +x permissions, the error pops up "<filename> not found" | 11:39 |
| muh2000 | googleing gave me the hint of missing libs. | 11:40 |
| muh2000 | but right now i am unable to figure out which are missing. ldd lists all. | 11:41 |
| tomreyn | muh2000: which ubuntu version are you running? which architecture? does the software match the ubuntu architecture? how are you executing the software? | 11:41 |
| tomreyn | lsb_release -ds; uname -a | 11:43 |
| muh2000 | Ubuntu 20.04 LTS; Linux 4981c1293486 5.4.0-42-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 10 00:24:02 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux; amd64; in a docker container. on the same host without docker, executing works; docker works as well; for me it shows me that a lib is missing. i had this issue one year ago but forgot what i did. | 11:46 |
| tomreyn | muh2000: what'sthe software you'Re trying to run, where do you have it from? what's the full output when you try running it now? | 11:50 |
| tomreyn | and where'S this docker image from / which one is it? | 11:51 |
| muh2000 | i think lsb-core is just missing, testing. | 11:51 |
| muh2000 | tomreyn: https://github.com/finogeeks/Ligase/blob/develop/INSTALL.md this one | 11:58 |
| tomreyn | when you got answers to all the questions, ping me again | 12:00 |

| tomreyn | okay, i don't know this software, nor this script, so can't help there. try getting support from the developers. | 12:04 |
| muh2000 | the software works (without docker). with docker there is the issue of the binaryfile that "cannot" be found. for me it sounds like missing libs in the container. but i am too dumb to figure out which. | 12:07 |
| WyZeGuY | @muh2000 join #docker, the people there would know better, although the channel is sleepy | 12:13 |
| muh2000 | yeah, maybe some came accross a similar issue :) | 12:14 |

| reith | could anyone get openvswitch meter support with openvswitch kernel module shipped by bionic's linux-module? | 13:14 |
| quadrathoch2 | Sven_vB i guess it's just easier to browse packages.ubuntu.com (as it's also easier to depict info imho | 13:14 |
| reith | it seems to have meter support (4.15 version should have support and i see symbols in modinfo) but doesn't work for me with userspaec v2.13 | 13:15 |
| Sven_vB | quadrathoch2, thanks for pointing out the missing aspects in my question. :-) I should add: on CLI, to diff them with my wishlist of packages so I know which ones to postpone. | 13:18 |

| leeijaw | I am back home now and currently at the BIOS setup screen. The SATA option was indeed in RAID mode. The text says "SATA is configured to support RAID mode (Intel Rapid Restore Technology)".

| quadrathoch2 | I guess you are looking for fractional scaling ren0v0 | 15:07 |
| ren0v0 | quadrathoch2, ?? | 15:08 |
| ren0v0 | quadrathoch2, I don't think you have a clue what I'm referring to it seems | 15:08 |
| ren0v0 | It's quite simple, Gnome is showing my titlebars font as say 14px but the taskbar as 12px | 15:09 |
| ren0v0 | It means the system tray icons are also tiny, compared to say minimise and maximise on title bars. | 15:09 |

| oerheks | leeijaw, wrong channel | 16:05 |
| leeijaw | Definitely not. I was trying to install Ubuntu 20.04 LTS | 16:06 |
| leeijaw | Ubuntu installer won't recognize my hard drive when SATA mode is set to RAID. | 16:07 |
| younder | leeijaw, if it is a RAID it is not a drive. It creates a new device which involves all the devices in the RAID. Also are you using BIOS to set up the RAID or Linux? | 16:09 |
| leeijaw | I guess it was not a RAID since I only have one SSD. My new desktop pre-installed with Windows and the default BIOS setup is with SATA mode RAID on (Intel Rapid Restore Technology). | 16:11 |
| quadrathoch2 | younder he is talking about SATA mode, which is a intel thing (afaik) so nothing to do with actual RAID | 16:11 |
| younder | leeijaw, lol. OK. soory | 16:13 |
| Mat63 | When you install ubuntu, on the disk, it may be that you do not have default options, to use a logical partition that I create myself? | 16:17 |
| Mat63 | and that rather it is installed where "it feels like it"? | 16:18 |
| leeijaw | I am now in the installation wizard now. I tick the "install third-party software for graphics and wifi hardware and additional media formats". It asks me to set up Secure Boot. What is that? | 16:19 |
| Mat63 | I admit that I do not yet have the technical ability to know how to do certain things | 16:19 |

| FutureRich | help me plz | 16:34 |
| FutureRich | i m too tired now | 16:35 |
| leeijaw | I believe ex4 will be sufficient for most of my use case. | 16:35 |
| mmarconm | first, what is drifnet : ) | 16:35 |
| mmarconm | sorry for the question | 16:35 |
| leftyfb | FutureRich: you install it like any other package | 16:35 |
| coconut | FutureRich, you can check it with apt policy driftnet | 16:35 |
| FutureRich | oh | 16:35 |
| oerheks | hint: it is in universe | 16:35 |
| FutureRich | thansk leftyfb and coconut | 16:35 |
| mmarconm | leeijaw: use ext4, i think will be the best for u | 16:35 |
| mmarconm | i used zfs on freebsd a long time ago | 16:35 |
| leftyfb | FutureRich: i'm going to take a wild guess with all the discussion around kali, ip_forward, driftnet an your refusal to read documentation or explain your goals that your goals are either legitimate pentesting or the more likely, malicious behavior. Please take the time to read the almost infinite amount of documentation online about what it is you are trying to work out before asking here. And also, don't do stupid things. It's not worth it. | 16:38 |

| leftyfb | FutureRich: FutureRich: and since you refuse to tell us what you are doing, we cannot help you | 17:18 |
| oerheks | mr_lou, how about the regulare update tool? | 17:19 |
| oerheks | !ltsupgrade | 17:19 |
| ubottu | Regular upgrades from the last but one LTS release to the latest LTS release, 20.04 "Focal Fossa", are enabled days or weeks after 20.04.1 is released. This delay helps to ensure that any lingering issues are resolved before people upgrade production systems. If you'd prefer to upgrade now, use sudo do-release-upgrade -d | 17:19 |
| mr_lou | oerheks, Yea, sounds logical. But I'm not seing any "Upgrade available" anywhere when starting that. Weird. | 17:19 |
| leftyfb | mr_lou: the GUI upgrade tool will no allow you to upgrade to 20.04 till 20.04.1 is released | 17:19 |
| oerheks | afaik, after august 6 20.04.1 release, the upgrade path will be released | 17:20 |
| mr_lou | This is old 14.04 going to 16.04 and then to 18.04 (old Intel Compute Stick) | 17:20 |
| leftyfb | mr_lou: then I would highly recommend using the CLI | 17:20 |
| FutureRich | leftyfb, lol you did help me from yesterday lo | 17:20 |
| oerheks | oke, then you need the EOL upgrade method | 17:20 |
| oerheks | !eolupgrade | 17:20 |
| 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.

| oerheks | with the old-versions part.. | 17:21 |
| FutureRich | i don't need your help leftyfb | 17:21 |
| leftyfb | FutureRich: then stop asking | 17:21 |
| oerheks | FutureRich, then don't ask kali questions in here | 17:21 |
| FutureRich | i asked someone except you | 17:21 |
| oerheks | !kali | FutureRich | 17:21 |
| ubottu | FutureRich: The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle) | 17:21 |

| cfoch | hello | 17:53 |
| oerheks | :-) | 17:56 |
| cfoch | Usually official open-source projects publish their source code in git repositories (github, gitlab, their own servers) but many of them are distribution-agnostic, so don't provide .deb packages, but just instructions on how to build the program from source code. Who creates official .deb packages for these kind of projects? How can I repeat the process that Ubuntu maintainers do to create these .deb packages? | 17:59 |
| TJ- | cfoch: we usually recommend getting the packages into Debian first, with a maintainer, then they'll automically be synced into Ubuntu | 18:00 |
| === gnoob19 is now known as gnoob | ||
| TJ- | cfoch: Debian has a Mentor programme to help new maintainers/packages get included and to find maintainers for packges that don't have one. Another route is to contribute the debianisation to the upstream project to make its acceptance into Debian easier | 18:01 |
| cfoch | In specific, I want to build https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/+source/ffmpeg to figure out why a program I have behaves different in Ubuntu Bionic... how can I start? | 18:04 |
| TJ- | cfoch: but ffmpeg is already debianised! | 18:06 |
| cfoch | I know it. But as I said I want to repeat the process that Debian package maintainers did to create the deb package. | 18:07 |
| TJ- | cfoch: oh, well in such a complex package that'd take some doing ! | 18:08 |
| cfoch | Not because I want to contribute to Debian/Ubuntu repositories, but because I want to debug something. | 18:08 |
| cfoch | I want to put modify the code, package it, install it and see what happens. | 18:08 |
| catbeard | found a solution to the audio output switch issue | 18:10 |
| catbeard | https://github.com/adaxi/audio-output-switcher | 18:10 |
| catbeard | thought i would share | 18:10 |
| TJ- | cfoch: you can do that from the current package. Ensure the deb-src: stanzas are in APT's sources.list, 'apt update' then 'apt-get source ffmepg' then edit code. Best to make it a git repo locally to make handling it easier, then make Quilt-style debian/patches/ with the changes and bump the version with a ~$YOUR_VER in debian/changelog, or use "dch -i" | 18:11 |
| oerheks | and !build | 18:12 |
| TJ- | cfoch: see for Quilt https://wiki.debian.org/UsingQuilt | 18:12 |
| TJ- | catbeard: see also 3.2 of https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/modify.en.html | 18:14 |

| TJ- | cfoch: see also 3.2 of https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/modify.en.html | 18:14 |
| cfoch | TJ-: how do I do this part "Ensure the deb-src: stanzas are in APT's sources.list" | 18:18 |
| Mat63 | (y) | 18:19 |
| cfoch | mmm...ahhh... | 18:19 |
| cfoch | ok, I see | 18:19 |
| TJ- | cfoch: identical line to existing deb: but starts "deb-src:" instead | 18:19 |
| Mat63 | how are the steps to install google, from the terminal? | 18:20 |
| TJ- | Mat63: Google isn't installable | 18:20 |
| gnoob | install google? | 18:21 |
| cfoch | sudo apt install google | 18:21 |
| gnoob | do you mean chrome or something? | 18:21 |
| cfoch | I guess he/she refers to chrome | 18:21 |

| Mat63 | This is how the cookie breaks | 18:28 |
| coconut | bleh, since when "apt install chromium-browser" forwards to snap from inside apt? | 18:29 |
| quadrathoch2 | coconut since chromium is only snap (20.04) | 18:29 |
| Mat63 | Download the package, and double click, It seems that there is an administrator / program that installed everything correctly | 18:30 |
| Mat63 | This Ubuntu 20.04 looks great | 18:31 |
| coconut | quadrathoch2, bad bad bad if you ask me..., it even auto-installs it without confirmation if i really want to do that. | 18:31 |
| TJ- | coconut: several packages do that in their postinst script. LXD is another | 18:32 |
| quadrathoch2 | coconut yeah that's what I don't like about it. on the other hand what linuxmint does is also not correct (it blocks snap install chromium, and even snapd itself) | 18:32 |
| coconut | TJ-, i think it should at least ask me before doing snap things.(otherwise i would have just started snap by myself) | 18:33 |
| TJ- | coconut: I agree 100% - I disable snap via DNS now | 18:33 |

| oerheks | but that would be an awkward fix.. | 19:09 |
| TJ- | not necessarily; there seems to be a problem related to Ubuntu initramfs images having multiple parts, some uncompressed. Specifically, the early microcode part is not compressed so the kernel assumes the entire file is not compressed | 19:10 |
| TJ- | that early microcode part is prefixed to the compressed rootfs | 19:10 |
| quadrathoch2 | oerheks or rebuilding a new initramfs fixes it | 19:11 |

| furkan | Repeating this question that I asked maybe a couple of days ago: I have a strange issue on my laptop (Ubuntu 20.04), which popped up some time over the last few weeks (never experienced it before that): I open a text file in gedit or some other program, and type some stuff and just leave the laptop idle. After some random amount of time, it will backspace all by itself until the whole file is erased, and | 19:39 |
| furkan | starts to beep continuously like gedit does when you hit backspace on an empty file, until I mash some keys to make it stop. After that, my backspace key sometimes stops registering, until I hit shift+backspace which seems to "fix" it for a while. Does anybody have some tips on how I could troubleshoot this? Somebody here suggested that I create another user account to see if the same thing happens with that, | 19:39 |
| furkan | and it does. But when I boot into Windows I don't have this issue (nor did I with Ubuntu 18.04 to 19.10 for the past 2 years). | 19:39 |
| TJ- | cfoch: "sudo apt-get build-dep $PACKAGE" then in the base directory "fakeroot debian/rules binary" | 19:41 |
| gnoob | furkan: any chance you just need some compressed air to blow it out? | 19:41 |
| MrSteve | some time passes.. | 19:42 |
| furkan | gnoob: in Ubuntu it usually just takes a few minutes to happen, but I left Windows running overnight and nothing happened... so I don't think it's a physical issue | 19:42 |
| TJ- | furkan: could be an ACPI issue with newer kernels - a regression or possibly tighter implementation fo the ACPI interpreter. Possible workaround: https://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html | 19:44 |

| tomreyn | run chkdsk /F on it in windows | 20:56 |
| oerheks | sounds like dirty bit set; faulty filesystem or files, run a fsck | 20:56 |
| Intelo | oerheks: was working before dist upgrade | 20:57 |
| Intelo | actually all partitions | 20:57 |
| Intelo | I have 3 I think | 20:57 |
| oerheks | sure, and now it is not. | 20:57 |
| Intelo | ok, runing fsck | 20:57 |
| MrSteve | if any ask.. install distribution upgrade, compiz needs ALL settings rechecked. | 20:58 |
| Intelo | oerheks: how to check ntfs with fsck again? | 20:59 |
| oerheks | best do that from windows | 20:59 |
| oerheks | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilesystemTroubleshooting | 21:00 |
| MrSteve | about decode bug, do I just ignore and wait ? | 21:01 |
| tomreyn | MrSteve: if you 're hoping to get help with anything here, be sure to provide !details | 21:02 |
| oerheks | MrSteve, wait for what? compiz is a gnome2 relic | 21:03 |
| tomreyn | there are probably not a lot of people using compiz on anything later than and including 18.04 | 21:03 |
| === tds7 is now known as tds | ||
| Intelo | oerheks: corrected, thanks | 21:06 |
| Intelo | oerheks: I wonder why would an upgrade make partition dirty | 21:07 |
| MrSteve | Well..it works. | 21:07 |
| MrSteve | TJ said he/she updated the bug report for this.. | 21:08 |
| MrSteve | bug 1835660 in linux (Ubuntu) "initramfs unpacking failed" [High,Confirmed] | 21:09 |
| ubottu | bug 1835660 in linux (Ubuntu) "initramfs unpacking failed" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1835660 | 21:09 |
| MrSteve | so I just wait | 21:09 |
| Intelo | Isn't my / on /dev/sda<some> ? whats /dev/mapper?? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/C5N4CbRMmt/ | 21:16 |
| quadrathoch2 | Intelo you have installed ubuntu on a lvm partition. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lvm | 21:19 |
| Intelo | quadrathoch2: oh yes. | 21:19 |
| Intelo | so how do I fsck it? | 21:19 |
| quadrathoch2 | just normal which would be fsck /dev/mapper/kubuntu--vg-root | 21:21 |

| system619 | When using Linux-Mint virtual-box Do I need to have the ISO of the OS That I want to Emulate? | 22:22 |
| gnoob | system619: you want to run another OS inside linux mint? I am not an expert but I think you will need the .ISO. | 22:24 |
| tomreyn | system619: this channel supports ubuntu only | 22:27 |
| system619 | gnoob thx br0 | 22:33 |
| system619 | The only reason why I came in here is cuz linux-mint is ubuntu | 22:34 |
| jeremy31 | system619: try #linuxmint-help on spotchat IRC or forums.linuxmint.com | 22:34 |
| system619 | jeremy31: thank you | 22:34 |
| oerheks | people still using mint? | 22:34 |
| system619 | lol | 22:34 |
| jeremy31 | system619: if you have Mint installed, see the welcome window, support, irc chat | 22:34 |
| system619 | there is no welcome screen anymore, but thank again. | 22:35 |
| * gnoob going to joint #mint | 22:35 | |
| gnoob | so you can't leave us hanging what's wrong with linux mint? | 22:37 |
| jeremy31 | gnoob: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:38 |
| oerheks | they have their own issues. | 22:38 |
| gnoob | jeremy31: will do. Will stay more on topic from now on. | 22:39 |
| ondrejoda | Hello everyone! I have been trying to make Xdmx work with my two laptops, but I keep getting errors which go like this: "xinit: XFree86_VT property unexpectedly has 0 items instead of 1". Can anybody help me fix this issue? | 22:52 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: looks like you didn't configure correctly, at least 1 is expected where you have ZERO | 22:53 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: you probably should find some documentation to follow | 22:54 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: or reference | 22:54 |
| ondrejoda | tatertotz: i mean, i scouted through google and couldnt find anything | 22:55 |
| ondrejoda | tatertotz: no man page as well | 22:55 |
| ondrejoda | tatertotz: the command i am using is startx -- /usr/bin/Xdmx +xinerama -display licalhost:11.0 - display :0.0 -norender .ignorebadfontpaths | 22:56 |
| tomreyn | licalhost:11.0 | 22:56 |
| ondrejoda | just noticed it | 22:56 |
| ondrejoda | *localhost | 22:56 |
| tomreyn | - display | 22:56 |
| ondrejoda | also, everything is going through an ssh tunnel | 22:57 |
| Kon | If I'm upgrading from Bionic to Focal, is it necessary to ppa-purge everything? What about locally compiled software? | 22:58 |
| Kon | I've heard conflicting opinions on this | 22:58 |
| ondrejoda | I remember going from mint 18.1 to 19.1, i didnt do anything like that and everything worked just fine | 22:58 |
| tomreyn | Kon: i say, yes, i know others who do, too, and i have not seen anyone saying you don't need to. | 22:59 |
| quadrathoch2 | ondrejoda as long as your ppas are supporting the newer version, that should be fine. but it's not always teh case | 22:59 |
| tomreyn | ondrejoda: which ubuntu version are you running where you are trying to use Xdmx? | 23:00 |
| ondrejoda | ubuntu 19.10 and lubuntu 18.10 | 23:00 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: have you EVER successfully done xdmx before? yes / no | 23:01 |
| ondrejoda | never | 23:01 |
| ondrejoda | this is my first time | 23:02 |
| TJ- | "note that GLX support and default display bit depth are common issues that will prevent Xdmx from running correctly." | 23:02 |
| ondrejoda | i tried it with and without the -noglxproxy argument, both not working | 23:02 |
| ondrejoda | note: both of my computers dont have graphics cards | 23:03 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: hmm seems like a complex task that only very advanced users should attempt, many things need to be configured and verified excluding the additional layer of complexity of your tunnel | 23:03 |
| ondrejoda | damn | 23:03 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: good luck on that though | 23:04 |
| ondrejoda | i mean, i would love to do it without ssh, but the thing is i dont know how | 23:04 |
| tomreyn | ondrejoda: also please note that both of the releases yoiu quoted are !eol | 23:04 |
| TJ- | ondrejoda: if the PCs don't have graphics cards how are they able to drive a display!? | 23:05 |
| ondrejoda | APU | 23:05 |
| ondrejoda | AMD E2-7110 1.8ghz and Intel Celeron clocking at a whopping 1.6ghz! | 23:06 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: IMO ...you've bit off too much there...trial and error until success | 23:06 |
| ondrejoda | oh | 23:07 |
| TJ- | so there /is/ a GPU, just it's integrated Radeon R2 into the CPU package! | 23:07 |
| ondrejoda | jup | 23:08 |
| ondrejoda | pain to play with | 23:08 |
| TJ- | ondrejoda: also bear in mind that xdmx has very few casual users; mostly its used in combination with tools like Chromium for specialist/large display walls | 23:09 |
| ondrejoda | oh | 23:10 |
| analogical | I need a tool can do bulk rename of filenames | 23:11 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: there are six steps minimal for a xdmx configuration, only for advanced users especially if the terminology of the six steps reads like a foreign language to you | 23:11 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: To establish an Xdmx desktop involves the following steps automated so that the construction appears transparent: | 23:12 |
| quadrathoch2 | analogical doesn't the tool help where you have multiple files selected and then click rename? | 23:12 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: 1. on each system configure and initiate a minimal X session; a minimal twm session is enough | 23:12 |
| quadrathoch2 | don't know if ithas a name (but it's in nautilus - files) | 23:12 |
| ondrejoda | yes | 23:12 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: 2. authorise the master system to access X resources on each remote system (use xhost +) | 23:12 |
| ondrejoda | ok i will have to look that up | 23:12 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: 3. install xorg-server-xdmx[broken link: package not found] on the master system | 23:12 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: 4. initiate a minimal X session on the master system | 23:13 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: 5. configure the desired Xdmx session | 23:13 |
| ondrejoda | hold up | 23:13 |
| analogical | quadrathoch2, I don't understand how that tool works | 23:13 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: 6. initiate the Xdmx session with an appropriate window manager as a working desktop | 23:13 |
| ondrejoda | apt cant find the package on pint 3 | 23:13 |
| ondrejoda | *point | 23:14 |
| TJ- | !info xdmxconfig | ondrejoda have you tried using | 23:14 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: and if all that sounds like a foreign language.....you're in over your head....and you should probably find something else to do | 23:14 |
| ubottu | ondrejoda have you tried using: Package xdmxconfig does not exist in focal | 23:14 |
| ondrejoda | ubottu: i am using eoan | 23:14 |
| ubottu | ondrejoda: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:14 |
| TJ- | !info xdmx-tools | ondrejoda and use 'xdmxconfog' | 23:14 |
| ubottu | ondrejoda and use 'xdmxconfog': xdmx-tools (source: xorg-server): Distributed Multihead X tools. In component universe, is optional. Version 2:1.20.8-2ubuntu2.2 (focal), package size 54 kB, installed size 476 kB | 23:14 |
| ondrejoda | ok apt found that, thanks! | 23:15 |
| analogical | I need a tool can do bulk rename of filenames | 23:15 |
| TJ- | my typing is going to pot! "xdmxconfig" - see "man xddmxconfig" | 23:15 |
| quadrathoch2 | analogical https://www.how2shout.com/how-to/how-to-batch-rename-multiple-files-on-ubuntu-using-file-manager-or-krename.html maybe this helps | 23:15 |
| TJ- | grrr again! | 23:15 |
| ondrejoda | TJ: the command is working and dont worry about the tying | 23:16 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: At present either Xdmx itself or the current state of window managers do not work well together for complex arrangements of multihead set-ups; the server tends to crash as soon as window drawing is required after the integrated desktop has been established. | 23:16 |
| TJ- | analogical: you asked this question over an hour ago in ##linux and were given all the same suggestions then; in that time you've prevaricated and found excuses to not try them. | 23:17 |
| ondrejoda | tatertotz: that is exactly what happens, all screens go black, and then the error. | 23:17 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: that is expected | 23:18 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: very ambitious effort though | 23:18 |
| TJ- | ondrejoda: any logs in /var/log/ for it on any of the hosts? | 23:18 |
| analogical | quadrathoch2, thanks! | 23:18 |
| ondrejoda | TJ-, will check | 23:18 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: it's well known | 23:19 |
| ondrejoda | oh, a little detail, my ubuntu installation for the AMD APU is using budgie | 23:19 |
| ondrejoda | not gnome | 23:19 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: no matter what you're using it doesn't exempt you from the following | 23:19 |
| tatertotz | ondrejoda: At present either Xdmx itself or the current state of window managers do not work well together for complex arrangements of multihead set-ups; the server tends to crash as soon as window drawing is required after the integrated desktop has been established. | 23:20 |
| ondrejoda | yeah, but tatertotz, i am doing only 2 screens, nothing complex | 23:22 |
| TJ- | ondrejoda: get it working on a single screen to begin with | 23:24 |
| TJ- | I recall writing an xdmx config and I'm sure I published it somewhere | 23:25 |
| ondrejoda | TJ-, ok, ill attempt to do that :D | 23:26 |
| ondrejoda | TJ-, sorry i left, my computer crashed | 23:30 |
| ondrejoda | because of xdmx | 23:31 |
| ondrejoda | :( | 23:31 |
| tomreyn | !eoan | ondrejoda | 23:32 |
| ubottu | ondrejoda: Ubuntu 19.10 (Eoan Ermine) was the 31st release of Ubuntu, support ended July 2020. See !eol and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2020-July/005494.html | 23:32 |

| ondrejoda | oof | 23:32 |
| ondrejoda | ok | 23:32 |
| ondrejoda | i didnt know that | 23:32 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> ondrejoda: also please note that both of the releases you quoted are !eol | 23:33 |
| ondrejoda | welp, thats what you get when your internet speed is 256 kb/s | 23:33 |
| tomreyn | you miss lines on irc? | 23:34 |
| ondrejoda | TJ-, ok, new error for xdmx: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: An authentication agent already exists for the given subject | 23:35 |
| leftyfb | ondrejoda: I count at least 6 internet cafe's in your area | 23:35 |
| ondrejoda | nope | 23:36 |
| ondrejoda | define area | 23:36 |
| leftyfb | Gaborone | 23:36 |

| leftyfb | ondrejoda (~ondrejoda@41.223.73.187) has joined #ubuntu | 23:37 |
| ondrejoda | oh | 23:38 |
| ondrejoda | ok | 23:38 |
| leftyfb | ondrejoda: either way, I would recommend maybe hitting up one of those cafe's to download 20.04 | 23:38 |
| ondrejoda | ok | 23:38 |
| ondrejoda | wait, how do i upgrade again? | 23:40 |
| leftyfb | !upgrade | ondrejoda | 23:40 |
