Not the hard drive :( [00:36] :( [00:36] Bashing-om, so what should I do now? [00:38] brenster21: Show me ehat we are worjing with - from the liveUSB terminal; ' sudo fdisk -lu | nc termbin.com 9999 ' the result is a URL, pass that link back here. Then I provide you the fsck command to look at the drive. [00:38] working* [00:41] sudo fdisk -lu | nc termbin.com 9999 [00:42] brenster21: ^ that is the command - that results in a URL back in the terminal - pass that link back here.

[00:47] yes [00:48] scarletmarauder: Ack - now run from the liveusb ' sudo fsck /dev/sda8 '. See what gets related about the file system :) [00:50] I get clean [00:51] brenster21: Reboot and see where you get to :) [00:51] rebooting === bocaneri is now known as Sauvin [01:21] /usr/share/themes/Syscrash [01:21] from openbox [01:21] Bashing-om, things seem to be working again [01:21] i believe this shouldn't be in the public repository for openbox [01:22] brenster21: \o/ :D [01:22] I can't seem to get Firefox to do hardware decoding with vaapi. Could it be something specific to how the Ubuntu packages are built that disables it? [01:28] Anyone knows how to troubleshoot additional screen not being detected?

[02:15] tatertots, only once yet [02:16] Squarism: it is something reproducible ? [02:16] I dont think I did anything special. I guess Ill try to play again [02:16] Squarism: you should find out [02:17] Is it normal that port 53 is open to the outside with ubuntu 20.04.1?

I connect with tio, and I see: ATE1 E0TATE1 E0TATE1 E0Tr [02:46] good ol AT modem commands. um.. Where did they come from? [02:47] CarlFK: does that seem Ubuntu related to you? [02:48] tatertots: yes - I am guessing there is something installed that is resetting modems when they are plugged in [02:48] I skimmed the tio source, I don't see any AT things https://github.com/tio/tio/blob/master/src/tty.c [04:00] hey i know this unreal support but i cant connect to them because i dont have ssl on my home pc... im stuck with this Makefile:145: recipe for target 'build' failed [04:03] MrFreeze: who is "them"?

[04:13] what is the most stable version of GUI on ubuntu currently? I've tried the default ubuntu 20.04LTS on my machine with gnome and it crashes randomly. I've an Nvidia 2080ti+4k monitor - which I think is the issue. [04:13] sad part is it was working till i removed ubuntu 16.04 [04:14] MrFreeze: 16.04 only good until 2021 [04:14] im now on 18.04 [04:24] memtest 86+ - I have it installed, but on grub screen it wont show up [04:24] any ideas on how to show that up from live usb drives? [04:29] pyraindrop: UEFI system ? Then see; http://www.memtest86.com/ . [04:33] Bashing-om, I tried both uefi and legacy modes [04:33] it does not show up [04:35] pyraindrop: If UEFI - will require the proprietary memtest. [04:36] Bashing-om, is there a stress tester iso available somewhere to test the machine?

[04:59] which version? [05:00] pyraindrop: presently booting 18.04 - have xfce as the DE. [05:01] I think I'll have to goto 18.04 too - the GUI in 20.04 is too unstable [05:02] pyraindrop: Have seen no issues with 20.04 (xubuntu). [05:03] Bashing-om, you've not used it with an nvidia card - have you? 4k monitor? [05:04] pyraindrop: I do have Nvida - but no on the 4K monitor - 20.04 is supposed to have the better support.

Kerberos seems to be working as expected as if i do an 'id user@domain' i am returned uid and gid. https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bnKm2tY4d3/ Any pointers [07:46] appreciated as I have been googling and playing around with this for a few hours with no success. [07:48] ozcrn: good morning, you can try #ubuntu-server if you like [07:48] cheers lotuspsychje will do [07:49] ozcrn: have you already got a successful klist/kinit? [07:53] @tatertots: yep, klist returns a valid kerberos token [07:57] ozcrn: and you've already modified pam configuration to put DNS first before "files" and other entries? [07:58] hmmm no, haven't done anything in regards to pam config [07:58] I'm running ubuntu 20.04 and since the upgrade, when I type "killall firefox" into the command line, it'll tell me "firefox: no process found" even though firefox is clearly running. How do I kill firefox from the command line now? [07:59] ozcrn: what does your /etc/nsswitch.conf look like? [08:00] kaddi: what does 'ps aux | grep firefox' give? [08:00] tatertots: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/zmVnzNK96t/ [08:01] EriC^: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/N3ZjgQpnjP/ [08:01] ozcrn: does your /etc/hosts contain your FQDN? [08:01] alternatively if there's an easy way to find the PID that'll kill all of firfeox instead of just a tab, that would be useful too [08:01] kaddi: try "kill 104213" [08:02] if that doesnt work try "kill -9 104213" [08:02] tatertots: as in the FQDN on the server itself? [08:02] *of [08:03] that worked, thanks.. but any idea why killall no longer works? Firefox freezes once every couple of days (which is annoying in itself but is an issue as old as time, I guess).. no longer being able to easily kill it is very inconvenient [08:03] kaddi: i think maybe it wanted the whole path, eg killall /usr/lib/firefox [08:04] kaddi: an easy way to kill it is via 'xkill' launch it from terminal then click on the frozen window [08:04] ozcrn: yes [08:04] tatertots: it didnt, I have added it, behaviour does not appear to have changed though [08:04] kaddi: also make sure firefox is latest version 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firefox' [08:05] EriC^: just realise that my firefox now seems to live in /usr/lib/firefox/firefox.. which seems odd [08:05] thanks for hte xkill tip [08:05] ozcrn: run "getent hosts " [08:05] ozcrn: it should return the true IP and hostname NOT 127.0.0.1 [08:05] kaddi: no worries, if the problem continues it might be useful to launch firefox from a terminal so it's more verbose there and might show why its freezing [08:05] ozcrn: it should return the true IP and hostname NOT 127.x.x.x [08:05] tatertots: yepp, confirmed correct IP and hostname [08:06] EriC^: it's a memory leak.. it'll eat up my 16GB of RAM and become unresponsive [08:06] ozcrn: restart sssd and try to ssh with a AD user [08:06] and they always seem to fix one memory leak with two others.. so it never really improves [08:07] ozcrn: have you already changed /etc/pam.d/common-session ? [08:08] ozcrn: if pam isn't expecting AD users login in it will fail [08:08] ozcrn: even if the system is joined [08:09] tatertots: login still fails. All i have added to /etc/pam.d/common-session is the pam_mkhomedir.so line so as it creates the homedir for new users [08:10] ozcrn: you don't have sssd listed in your pam conf? [08:10] ozcrn: post your pam conf [08:11] EriC^: any idea why it can't find the process by name anymore? Others seem to work, but firefox doesn't get recognized [08:11] ozcrn: i'll post mine from a AD joined 16.04 [08:11] ll [08:11] ozcrn: then you can compare [08:11] tatertots: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3VVPWFFtv9/ pam_sso.so was already present [08:12] ozcrn: https://termbin.com/8ybr [08:12] ozcrn: notice the pam_sss.so [08:12] ozcrn: you should have this [08:13] tatertots: yeah, that is present, only difference i can see is the umask and your config has pam_mkhomedir.so as required whereas mine is optional [08:13] ozcrn: it's NOT session "optional" [08:14] ozcrn: it's session "required" [08:14] ozcrn: also move your line [08:14] ozcrn: mimic mine [08:14] ozcrn: of your keep your custom /etc/skel [08:14] ozcrn: of course your keep your custom /etc/skel [08:15] ozcrn: i notice you're using umask 0022, i use 0077 in my environment, keep your custom 0022 [08:17] ozcrn: you'll need to restart sssd with any change you make [08:18] tatertots: have copied across the changes from your configuration but still no good [08:18] tatertots: im going to give the whole server a reboot and see if this changes anthing [08:18] ozcrn: ok [08:20] ozcrn: i just noticed my /etc/hosts not only has my FQDN but has my domain controller FQDN and IP [08:21] tatertots: reboot didnt change anything, will add that in as well and test [08:21] tatertots: appreciate the help [08:21] ozcrn: i've got two different 16.04's joined to different AD domains so i'm comparing both /etc/hosts [08:22] tatertots: i've got plenty of centos / aws linux 2 machine joined without issues. This is the first ubuntu machine have attempted to add. If this doesn't work I might try and spin up a test 16.04 box and see if that works [08:22] ozcrn: i didn't make any edits to /etc/hosts on 1of2 and both are joined successfully [08:23] ozcrn: i'll link you the guide i used [08:23] ozcrn: it worked to get both my 16.04's joined to two different domains [08:24] ozcrn: it's something with your pam config [08:24] tatertots: appreaciated. will spin up a 16.04 when i get a chance. [08:25] tatertots: yeah, i figured that was the case, because everything else seems to indicate the machine is joined fine [08:26] ozcrn: https://www.kiloroot.com/add-ubuntu-14-04-server-or-desktop-to-microsoft-active-directory-domain-login-to-unity-with-domain-credentials/ [08:26] ozcrn: it says 14.04 but it's actually for 16.04 too since he's not using PBIS anymore [08:27] ozcrn: there was a tool called PBIS used in 14.04 that made joining a breeze but it's no longer supported in anything higher than 14.04 [08:27] ozcrn: actually i think they did open source PBIS and make it for newer versions..but i migrated to using realmd+sssd [08:28] tatertots: i've pretty much done everything through the use of realmd which seemed simple enough [08:28] ozcrn: PBIS was proprietary at the time i was joining Linux to domains [08:28] ozcrn: i like the realmd+sssd route myself also [08:29] ozcrn: that reminds me of your sssd.conf [08:29] ozcrn: poking through that link..something might stand out that you didn't do [08:29] tatertots: will give that guide a go when I am back in the office tomorrow. Will report back if you are floating around. Thanks again [08:30] ozcrn: no prob [08:30] ozcrn: i'll be joining a new 20.04 box to AD in the next week so i can we can compare steps [08:34] ozcrn: i wonder if you did the "realm allow" thing [08:37] is there any reason to use apt-get update instead of apt update ? === the_ant1 is now known as the_ant [08:44] hi [08:44] should i reboot when i change graphic driver ? === Norkle is now known as KevinBacon === KevinBacon is now known as Norkle [09:06] this is very strange, why the driver setting show nvidia-driver-450 as open-source ? i thought it was nouveau the name of the open source driver ? [09:06] kaddi: no idea [09:07] kaddi: perhaps try with pkill firefox ? [09:08] usually kills firefox for me [09:21] tatertots: doing a 'realm permit' allowed me to login [09:22] ozcrn: lol...good..i was trying to think of what you might have missed, "realm permit" came to mind [09:22] tatertots: with all the rest of my servers i've controller access using the 'ad_access_filter' directive in sssd.conf, using realm permit seems to add a 'simple_allow_groups' entry [09:22] ozcrn: "realm permit" is pretty strict in my environments [09:23] ozcrn: only Enterprise Admins can log in to my Linux AD systems [09:24] tatertots: we are pretty limited as well, mostly because we are a windows shop and *nix scares people... [09:25] ozcrn: same here with my shop..I'm the only one in the Enterprise Admin group that can log in to Linux lol [09:27] ozcrn: i've never used the ad access filter technique, i may have to try that [09:27] tatertots: thanks again for the help, knew it would end up being something stupid [09:28] ozcrn: out of curiosity you on 16.04 also? [09:28] tatertots: nope, only Ubuntu we've got is 20.04 [09:28] ozcrn: they keep switching from LightDM and it makes me have to do additional stuff to get AD users to GUI login [09:29] tatertots: i did some disgusting things to make gui logins useable on centos7/mate [09:29] ozcrn: i had LightDM in 16.04, upgraded to 18.04 and was using GDM3 all the sudden, wasn't expecting the change [09:30] tatertots: honestly the less i see of a linux gui the happier i am [09:31] ozcrn: you've motivated me to join my 20.04 earlier than planned [09:31] tatertots: good luck! [09:32] k, lets see if I can ask this here... Atm I cannot get into my router, seems I need to reset it, but rather not now. And all I wanted to do is check which port is open for Transmission. Is there an other way to find out? === Tabstar is now known as Tabmow [09:34] JeroenK: are you chatting from the computer right now? [09:34] yes, on my laptop [09:34] JeroenK: open terminal [09:35] JeroenK: in terminal> sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN|nc termbin.com 9999 [09:35] JeroenK: share url/link here...if you do not get a url/link..simply say so [09:36] Got nothing [09:37] JeroenK: in terminal> sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN|nc 5.39.93.71 9999 [09:37] JeroenK: share url/link here...if you do not get a url/link..simply say so [09:38] https://termbin.com/nnij [09:39] JeroenK: port # 51413 [09:40] Yeah, that' s the port which Transmission uses, default setting. Not the port I already had set in the routher. [09:40] tatertots: https://www.bu.edu/tech/services/security/iam/directory/ad/linux/ has a decent explanation of the two. [09:40] Unless Transmission automatically finds that port? [09:41] tatertots: access provider defaulted to 'simple' on ubuntu which explains why only 'simple_allow_groups' worked, centos defaulted to 'ad' [09:42] ozcrn: it defaults to 'simple' on ubuntu AND mint [09:43] tatertots: setting it to 'ad' doesn't seem to work either [09:43] Hence why I wanted to check in the router which port i had once set. Hm, if this is all that can be done then I need to reset my router afterall. Hoped I could do that much later... [09:44] ozcrn: it must be a ubuntu thing [09:45] is there a simple way to convert an install I did with BIOS mode to EFI? I forgot to change it before reinstalling the computer and had wanted to do it to get firmware updates working automatically [09:45] tatertots: Cons of Simple: Does not check if account is active and will still allow login even though the account may be in the “expired” state. [09:45] tatertots: doesn't seem ideal but if that's how it is just something to be aware of i guess [09:45] O wait, in settings there' s Test Port, tested it, port is closed indeed [09:45] pedrocr: can you pastebin 'sudo parted -ls' ? [09:45] k, thx ;) [09:46] JeroenK: good luck with your router [09:47] EriC^: https://gist.github.com/pedrocr/30f3e224bb18cb7d70755086a0a92208 [09:47] /boot as ext4 and then / and /home as encrypted partitions [09:47] ozcrn: i think they compensate for that issue in ubuntu [09:48] ozcrn: does your klist show a quick expiration? [09:49] ozcrn: here's how fast mine expires https://termbin.com/hxjk [09:49] pedrocr: what you can do is make the /boot an efi partition, and make /boot part of the encrypted root fs [09:49] i can guide you through the process if you want to do it [09:49] ozcrn: forcing it to validate the account no matter what the same day [09:50] tatertots: yeah, same 10 hours expiry [09:50] ozcrn: within several hours even [09:50] EriC^: is it complex enough that just reinstalling makes more sense? [09:50] ozcrn: so ubuntu is forcing validation every 10 hours...better than nothing i guess [09:50] I keep /home in a separate partition just so I can nuke /boot and / and be back up fairly quickly [09:51] ozcrn: i'm going to expire an account and test that out [09:52] tatertots: unsurprisingly ubuntu and centos are running different major version, ubuntu newer though so not like they've added the feature [09:52] ozcrn: gotta find a user to pick on to test with lol [09:52] tatertots: i'm going to have to do the same, our security guys enjoy nitpicking this kind of thing [09:52] pedrocr: i see, yeah reinstalling would be easier [09:52] tatertots: CEO usually works well hahah [09:52] lol [09:53] EriC^: and what do I need to do at install? Set the partition to /efi instead of /boot? [09:54] pedrocr: you need to boot the live usb in uefi mode, it should show a white/black grub menu instead of the menu in the middle, then in the installer you want to create an efi partition and /boot as usual [09:55] efi partition around 300mb would be good [09:55] if you know you wont be using windows with it, you might get away with like 50-100mb so you have more left over for /boot, but frankly it's easy to put boot inside the rootfs later and probably more secure [09:56] hello, question about the nextcloud snap. is it possible to mount a nfs share as the data directory easily with the snap? [09:56] pedrocr: (you'll need to add GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=y to /etc/default/grub and update-grub though) [09:56] i've never used snaps [09:58] EriC^: If I'm reading the UEFI page correctly I need to mount the EFI partition in /boot/efi, which doesn't seem too bad [09:59] pedrocr: yeah [09:59] but apparently it should be automatically detected [09:59] pedrocr: yeah if there's already an efi partition it would use it [10:00] Ok, I'll probably do the reinstall when I have some time then [10:00] having automatic firmware upgrades would be nice [10:00] thanks [10:00] alright, no problem [10:01] hi everyone [10:03] Hi everyone! I've recently upgraded to 20.04, and just today my bluetooth on my laptop completely stopped working. As in, it's not showing up with `rfkill list` as a hci device anymore. [10:04] So I can't use it at all. I can't start the bluetooth service manually, I can't connect using bluetoothctl, or anything. [10:04] question: when i open my laptop.. that open GNU GRUB 2.04 .. how i can back to boot and login as usual [10:04] necrophcodr: maybe turning the laptop off, removing the battery and holding the power button might help [10:04] You think draining the power completely might work? [10:04] Mr_x: you get a grub> prompt? [10:05] Unfortunately it doesn't have a removable battery. [10:05] yes EriC^ what should command i need to type [10:05] necrophcodr: worth a try, ive had some problems with wifi where doing that got it working, though it didnt disappear from the os in my case [10:05] necrophcodr: anything in "dmesg" relating to the bluetooth? [10:06] Mr_x: try "insmod normal" then type "normal" [10:06] EriC^, nothing in dmesg related to bluetooth at all, no [10:06] necrophcodr: could it be somehow disabled in the bios? [10:06] EriC^, I checked the BIOS and there's no Bluetooth settings at all [10:07] EriC^: but nothing happen [10:07] maybe it's worth it to check using a live usb that used to work to see if it's a hardware issue [10:07] My situation was that I was using bluetooth with a headset earlier today, left for a while, and when I came back, the headset wasn't connected anymore, and the bluman had hung. I tried to use `rfkill unblock bluetooth` but it didnt do anything, and `rfkill list` showed the device to be unblocked. [10:07] I then rebooted, and `rfkill list` no longer even shows the device. [10:07] Mr_x: type "echo $prefix" [10:07] what's it return? [10:08] (hd0,msdos1)/boot/grub [10:09] that is EriC^ [10:09] Mr_x: ok type "configfile $prefix/grub.cfg" [10:09] necrophcodr: can you boot LiveCD/LiveUSB and test? [10:10] tatertots, i dont have a USB available unfortunately, but i'll see if i can get my hands on one soon [10:10] EriC^: done .. but cant see anything output [10:11] necrophcodr: you can boot an ubuntu iso from grub [10:11] Mr_x: does "ls $prefix/" give any files called grub.cfg ? [10:11] Mr_x: is this a grub> or grub rescue> prompt? [10:12] ls $prefix/ [10:14] unicode.pf2 i386-pc/ locale/ fonts/ grubenv grub.cfg [10:14] that is EriC^ [10:14] this is grub> promt [10:15] Mr_x: ok, does "cat $prefix/grub.cfg" give a lot of text? [10:15] Hello all, how can I restrict users from running rm -rf * (or) rm -rf / in a system. At the same time, I would require all users to use rm command from shell script. [10:16] @nara [10:16] yes EriC^ [10:16] narakrish: don't give them root access [10:16] Is this guide current? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot [10:16] Mr_x: ok, type "echo $root" [10:17] hello [10:18]
