sarnoldoh that'd be nice if it's "just" a funky cable00:00
boxrickYea, will see. If its just the CD drive bay its no big deal. If the actual MiniSAS connector is broken or the raid controller then that will suck since the entire reason I bought this was for throwing a tonne of 3.5" disks in :p00:01
sarnoldyeah I've heard those are nice little systems for zfs00:05
boxrickHmm interesting its still locking up on linux-firmware even without errors.00:08
sarnold:( :(00:11
thyriaensarnold, are you around ?00:11
sarnoldboxrick: here's the postinst script https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/S7HSxzPHsB/00:11
sarnoldthyriaen: yeah00:11
thyriaenwell, you won't like it but with the 4.20 kernel everything works flawlessly00:12
thyriaeneven the usbc-ethernet adapter works perfectly now00:12
sarnoldthyriaen: good news and bad news :) good news is, there's a chance for a fix :) bad news is, now you've got another twenty boots in your future...00:12
thyriaensarnold, well i'm quite happy to just run this version - or do you think i should really dig in deep and try to figure out what's the issue ?00:13
sarnoldthyriaen: some day you'll probably have a reason to want to run a newer kernel00:14
thyriaenand i dont have to run 20 kernels00:14
thyriaenits just log(20) :)00:14
thyriaenif i always half the steps00:14
thyriaenalright i will probably need about a week to make sure i get the right verion where it fails00:16
thyriaenso i'll be back :p00:16
sarnoldthyriaen: heh, that's the thing though -- twenty boots only covers around one million commits.. between 4.20 and 5.whatever is a *lot* of commits..00:16
thyriaenawh00:17
sarnoldhopefully the kernel team ppa gets you quite close00:17
=== OEIRAS is now known as OERIAS
thyriaenbut i can't be that thorough00:17
sarnoldactually building your own to bisect would be a lot less fun, but sometimes necessary00:17
thyriaen_a lot less fun_00:17
thyriaenanyways, ill do my digging - when i got more info - im gonna come back and report my findings00:19
bray90820Does ubuntu 20.04 support .desktop files00:42
quadrathoch2bray90820 yes00:45
bray90820Well as of right now my .desktop file opens in text editor00:45
bray90820https://pastebin.com/raw/F1GZjq6700:46
quadrathoch2well yeah that's the norm. I just put them in the applications folder and then they work :/ bray90820 sorry, can't help too much00:49
bray90820Anyone else?00:49
sarnoldbray90820: two questions: (a) do you need to set the executable bit on these things? (b) do you need to give a full path to nautilus?00:53
bray90820Not sure about ether of those but but it is set as exicutable00:55
spiffdaddywhere should the directory be located for a drive mounting automatically at boot?01:20
sarnoldcheck /etc/fstab, it should give the mountpoint01:21
spiffdaddyshould it be in /home/user/directory?  or /home/directory?01:21
sarnold(unless it's a zfs dataset or perhaps btrfs dataset, I don't know how btrfs works)01:21
spiffdaddyi mean, where should i create the actually directory for it to mount ?01:21
sarnoldwhereever you need it to exist, I guess01:21
spiffdaddysorry* it's going to be a network drive01:21

blebanyone know why wired networking would not be working?01:45
blebi just tested on void and openbsd, and this wire is able to provide an ip address via dhcp and then a connection to the network01:46
blebbut ubuntu 20.04 is failing to do that01:46
blebhow would i troubleshoot?01:46
tatertotzbleb: are you chatting from the computer right now?01:49
blebi'm chatting from my laptop booted to openbsd using the wired connection01:49
blebso i know the problem is not the network01:49
blebi guess i could try a livecd on the same computer, to see if it is a hardware issue or an os issue01:50
tatertotzbleb: logs, network manager, ping and tracepath and route01:50
tatertotzbleb: does wifi work? does wifi exist on the system?01:51
blebno wifi on the ubuntu computer01:51
blebping 9.9.9.9 says "ping: connect: Network is unreachable"01:54
blebtracepath says "1: send faild \ Resume: pmtu 65535"01:54
tatertotzbleb: you'd want to do some of the other things first only using ping when applicable01:55
blebthe networkmanager icon in the menu bar shows a wifi triangle icon with no bars01:55
tatertotzbleb: are the link/actt lights on the nic illuminated? how about the lights on the switch / router port?01:55
blebif i click it i can select "Wired connection 1"01:55
tatertotzbleb: that's "physical" layer stuff...check that off01:56
blebthen the icon turns into a spinny thing but never connects01:56
blebthe ethernet port has a green light and a blinking yellow light01:56
tatertotzbleb: what are the results for checking for link/act lights on all sides?01:56
blebrouter side also good01:57
tatertotzbleb: reseat cable while simultaneously checking logs01:57
blebhow do i check the logs?01:57
tatertotzbleb: i don't see anything is NOT acceptable answer or response from log viewing in the above context01:58

nuxilcan anyone reccoment a good editor. something like i have on windows. notepad++ . the default text editor in ubuntu is shait.02:05
newqHey, why does my laptop hang on this screen when I boot? https://i.imgur.com/Bk5Zl9R.jpg I had it booted to a full desktop before and now it does this. All I did last time was install Chromium and run some updates and set up the fingerprint reader. I'm at a loss. :(02:06
blebaight02:07
blebmaking a new installation usb02:07
blebthat didnt last long02:07
nuxilnewq, i had the same issue after i installed ubuntu on a virtual machine.  but im guessing youre not using a virtual machine. i installed some extension for the virual machine. upped the cpus to 6 cores and 4096 ram and 128mb video mem. and it whent away.02:13
newqWell that doesn't help much, but I appreciate your input02:14
nuxilcant you press esc or something during boot to get rid of the splash screen and see whats doing on in the background ?02:15
newqYeah, none of the keyboard shortcuts I've read about seem to do anything. I haven't specifically tried esc02:16
nuxili dont think esc works tho.02:16
nuxilbut give it a shot anyway :p02:17
newqOkay, not only did escape work to show me some text flying by, but I was actually able to get to the login screen now... but I'm sure it's going to do it again, since it's been intermittent before. So this still doesn't fix the issue.02:20
nuxilwill it allow you do go to tty2. "alt F2" or whatever it02:20
newqI'm gonna reboot and see if it does it again02:20
newq(and no, alt+Fwhatever didn't work when I tried earlier today)02:20
nuxilthe key combination was02:20
nuxiloki02:20
newqAlright, I rebooted and it's hung on that screen again. I'm gonna press esc and see if that "fixes" it.02:22
newqAlright, now esc doesn't even do it02:22
nuxiltry Ctrl C :p02:22
newqwill do02:23
nuxilim just guessing here. sound like you need a livecd to do some recovery02:23
nuxilso. can anyone reccomend a good editor for linux. this default "text editor" is awefull to use. lacks so many features.02:25
nuxil*linux -> ubuntu02:25
pavloshow about sumlime?02:25
pavlossublime02:25
* nuxil googles02:25
leftyfbnuxil: vim02:25
nuxilvim. heck no.02:26
leftyfbnuxil: this is a support channel. Try #ubuntu-offtopic for opinions02:26
newqAlright, it seems like esc only works if I press it immediately - as soon as that loading screen appears. Once it's up for long enough, it doesn't do anything. (also, ctrl + c doesn't work either)02:26
nuxiltheres a joke about vim.  take a person who never used it before. and open it for it him/her. now tell him to exit.. and volla you got a random char generator :p02:28
nuxilleftyfb, ok. i'll ask in there02:28
pavlosnuxil: https://www.sublimetext.com/02:30
nuxilpavlos, hmm im confused. is it payware or freeware. i see a buy button there02:31
leftyfbnuxil: sudo snap install sublime-text02:31
pavlosnuxil: you can run the freeware w/o issues.02:32
nuxilok. thanks02:32
newqSo how do I permanently fix it?02:36
futureRichif i install ubuntu, then there is no g++?02:49
glguyfutureRich: To have g++ in your Ubuntu install you'll have to install it. I believe a way to get a basic set of build tools (including a C++ compiler) is to install the build-essential metapackage02:51
futureRichhow can i install g++? glguy ?02:52

jackshi, we have a uat server running 18.04.4 but the prod server is running 18.04 is there an easyway to update prod to 18.04.4, i've tried dist-upgrade but nothing is available03:13
leftyfbjacks: sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade03:16
jacksoh right well thank you03:16
jackshi, i was in here earlier, i have a prod and uat server, uat runs 18.04.4 but prods runs 18.04 - i tried running dist-upgrade/upgrade as suggested, but it advises 0 packages to upgrade03:48
jacksis there another method of getting the prod server to 18.04.403:48
sarnoldjacks: what makes you think it isn't on 18.04.4?03:48
sarnoldjacks: are they running different kernels?03:48
sarnoldjacks: you could install the HWE kernel on both, or the release kernel on both03:49
jackssarnold: yes they are running different versions of kernel, prod is 4.4.0-186-generic, uat is 4.15.0-112-generic03:51
jacksi was checking the output of lsb_release03:52
sarnoldjacks: aha; the instructions on how to install hwe kernels are here, in case you want to move production forward: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack03:52
jackswould that also update the lsb release output?03:53
sarnoldI'm not sure03:53
sarnoldjacks: afaik it's undocumented how to roll back to release kernel, in case you want to leave producion alone but bring uat back to match03:53
sarnoldjacks: but this shold give a starting point of which packages to uninstall or install, depending upon which way you'd like to go03:54
jacksall i know is this certbot software the dev guys want works on uat but not prod and we suspect its because of different package releases03:54
sarnoldhmm somethingas mundane as certbot feels like it ought not care what kernel is running03:55
jacksthats what i thought too03:55
sarnoldbut still, if you'd like to try running the HWE kernel on prod, that's at least the easy direction :) heh03:55
jacksthanks03:56
icecube45question - why does clicking on an program in the sidebar show all programs if multiple of that program are running? (and is there any way to change that). Running 20.0404:13
icecube45i.e. if i have three terminal windows open, I click the terminal icon, it shows all my windows. I'd expect it to only show the terminals I have open04:13
gnoobthat seems strange04:14
icecube45see honestly i dont know if this is default behavior, or something that was messed up during my upgrade from 1804:15
gnoobcan't confirm. Not running ubuntu right now.  But I have been hanging out here and have not seen anyone else ask the question.04:16
icecube45https://imgur.com/a/de87JkD04:23
icecube45this is what I'm referring to ^04:23

littlebithi people, i'm setting up for the first time an https server based on apache and I wanted to know how to generate a certificate chain13:28
littlebitcan someone provide me a link of how to do that with a basic self signed certificate?13:28
leftyfblittlebit: just use letsencrypt. It's free13:30
littlebitleftyfb: yeah, but I have my domain for my local lan called: home.lab which isn't something used for the public internet13:33
littlebitleftyfb: or does letsencrypt generate certificates for that?13:33
leftyfblittlebit: it can. But why do you need an ssl certificate for a local domain?13:34
littlebitwell i have nextcloud installed on my local server, and the nextcloud app only wants an ssl connection13:35
npulittlebit, openssl req -new -newkey rsa:4096 -x509 -sha256 -days 365 -nodes -out MyCertificate.crt -keyout MyKey.key13:35
leftyfbgeirha: sshuttle does not support a feature to route all traffic through the ssh tunnel13:35
littlebitwhich forces me to do that\13:35
leftyfblittlebit: I would still go with letsencrypt. But yeah, you can generate one manually which you'll need to maintain13:36
quadrathoch2littlebit you could also use nextcloud without ssl, you would just need to force http://13:37
littlebiti'm able to generate the certificate. I'm using ubuntu snap and it has the snap package for nextcloud.13:38
littlebitthere i can enable the https with nextcloud.enable-https but it really insists on a chain13:39
leftyfblittlebit: https://www.digicert.com/kb/csr-ssl-installation/ubuntu-server-with-apache2-openssl.htm13:40

CtrlCgeirha, thank you so much!13:45
leftyfbCtrlC: sshuttle will not route all traffic through it's tunnel. It only allows you to access the subnets on the other side. There are tricks to use sshuttle and other programs, but sshuttle will not do it on it's own13:46

CtrlCI don't know what those subnet things mean.13:47
CtrlCleftyfb, what should I do then?13:47
leftyfbCtrlC: why do you need to route all traffic through ssh as opposed to setting up a proper VPN?13:48
oerheksall traffic over ssh is re-inventing vpn13:48

geirhaI use sshuttle to avoid vpn13:48
CtrlCleftyfb, I just want to hide my ip to some api server while I make calls to it using node and python libraries.13:49
CtrlCleftyfb, I thought it's easier than a VPN to setup.13:49
CtrlCI've tried wiregaurd but not much luck. It doesn't connect anything.13:49
CtrlCThe systemd service on the client starts but I can't access anything.13:50
CtrlCgeirha, is it any good at hiding IP?13:50
leftyfbCtrlC: you know what, a litle digging and I'm wrong. You can use sshuttle by specifying 0.0.0.0/013:50
geirhano idea, not what I use it for13:50
leftyfbCtrlC: sshuttle -r username@sshserver 0.0.0.0/0 -vv13:50

oerheksyou need to add option ssh-flag in order to connect to another port: ...16:00
oerheksthat is why we cannot answer correctly, we did not know16:00
bbhossI'm having no issues connecting on 2222, it works just fine. I don't want it running on 22.16:00
oerheksthat setting might be your fix?..16:01
bbhossgcloud compute ssh just looks up your instance's ip address and runs the ssh command. You don't have to use it at all16:01
bbhossso those other flags are just saying to use the new port. Nothing to do with the daemon16:02
leftyfbbbhoss: unless they've modified the ubuntu images to talk directly to their GCP API and listen on whatever address their ssh-flag system is configured for16:02
bbhossthat's not what that does. that stackoverflow isn't relevant because it's discussing how to connect to the instance. that is working fine for me16:03
leftyfbbbhoss: did you try it?16:03
bbhossThat's how I'm connected16:03
leftyfbbbhoss: so you already set the flag to be 2222?16:04
bbhossyes. --ssh-flag just allows you to pass options to the underlying ssh command16:04

bbhossman page says16:29
bbhoss> Specifies the port on which the server listens for connections (default 22).  Multiple port options are permitted.  Ports specified in the configuration file with the Port option are ignored when a command-line port is specified.  Ports specified using the ListenAddress option override command-line ports.16:29

leftyfbusero4eg: sysconf? for what?19:31
usero4egI need to find a "lines" in this file o_019:31
usero4egI know, it's sound so strange, but I need to find it.19:32
leftyfbusero4eg: for what? For what service? What exactly are you trying to do?19:32
sarnoldusero4eg: what does 'sysconf' mean to you?19:32
leftyfbbah, is it a nethack thing?19:33
usero4egokay, I try to google it. I don't know what is sysconf too, I have a strange task, and can't find it...19:33
leftyfbusero4eg: what do you need to add to "sysconf" and why?19:33
leftyfbusero4eg: please answer the questions19:33
usero4egat the first step I need to find it on a few machines and compare content.19:34
sarnoldusero4eg: pastebin the problem you're trying to solve?19:34
leftyfbusero4eg: you have not answered a single question19:35
usero4egguys, I don't know what is sysconf in ubuntu...19:35
usero4egits sounds strange, Im sorry.19:35
leftyfbusero4eg: what are you trying to accomplish?19:36
oerhekslocate <file> .. i think sysconf is a folder ??19:36
leftyfbusero4eg: what are you doing?19:36
leftyfbusero4eg: what do you need to add to "sysconf" and why? What/who is telling you do that and for what purpose?19:36
leftyfbplease answer any of these questions.19:37
usero4eg@leftyfb, Im understood you, Im asked one question and got five.19:37
leftyfbusero4eg: please answer any of the 519:37
oerheks:-D19:37
usero4egMy colleague gave me a task to compare sysconf file in ubuntu, and I don't understand where I can find it.19:37
leftyfbusero4eg: where did this sysconf file come from?19:38

leftyfbusero4eg: a file names "sysconf" does not exist in any package in the Ubuntu repositories other than a game called nethack.19:40
oerheksspoler alert !!!!  "This is an area where the Debian and Red Hat families really differ. Network interfaces in Debian/Ubuntu are not defined by files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts ( there is not even a /etc/sysconfig directory), but by /etc/network/interfaces "19:41
oerhekships .. you could have this answer earlier, if you answer questions19:41
leftyfboerheks: he said "sysconf" not sysconfig19:41
mbeierlusero4eg, it's possible that the request is to compare the set of installed packages, or even the network config, or who knows.  You will need to ask your colleague what "sysconf" means in this context19:41
usero4eg"a file names "sysconf" does not exist in any package in the Ubuntu repositories" , I don't understood what he is mean, and tried to ask here, Im newbie in Linux, and don't know what is exist or not exist.19:43
mbeierlusero4eg, what we are trying to say is that we does not know what sysconf is either.19:43
mbeierlLike me going into a kitchen and asking where the steering wheel is.19:44
leftyfbusero4eg: there is no sysconf file or older in ubuntu. If you want further help, you need to clarify what the sysconf file you currently have is used for. Network config? Game config? Something else?19:44
usero4eg@oerheks, thank's a lot, mb I can find a solve of my task :)19:44
mbeierlSorry we cannot help if we simply do not know what it is you are looking for...19:45
tomreynmaybe if you can copy and paste the original task your collegue gave you verbatim, we can maybe help19:45
oerheksmy answer could well be wrong..19:45
leftyfbtomreyn: I already asked for that. No response19:45
sarnoldleftyfb: hmm there should be *some* files with name 'sysconf' on ubuntu :) the sysconf(3) and sysconf(3posix) manpages, for example19:45
tomreynleftyfb: sometimes asking more than once helps. ;)19:46
oerheksi think pre-systemd era ..19:46
mbeierlsarnold, those are kernel subroutines for getting kernel info19:46
mbeierliirc19:46
sarnoldmbeierl: close, libc19:47
leftyfbsarnold: apt-file shows no file or directory called "sysconf" other than for nethack19:47
mbeierlsysconf could even mean something as simple as what kernel version is running...  That is the problem with the request from the colleague.  Not enough info19:47
oerheks.. could be windows?19:48
sarnoldleftyfb: very curious: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/DNCh4DHJdm/19:48
leftyfbthat's sysconf.3.gz, not sysconf :)19:49
