Biessiei updated my apache and this is the error i get while updating. https://pastebin.com/TiRRNfUJ00:04
BiessieI used sudo apt upgrade00:04
sarnoldBiessie: apt-file search /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp7.3.so  doesn't return any packages on my focal system; is that path correct?00:06
Biessielocate doesnt see it00:07
Biessielet me updatedb real quick00:07
Biessieyea that file doesnt exists apparantly00:08
sarnoldwell, the nice thing about apt-file is that it searches packages that you *could* install :)00:09
sarnoldoh! https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php7.300:09
sarnold7.3 was packaged for eoan00:09
sarnoldfocal has 7.4 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php7.400:10
Biessiei do have 7.4.so00:10
Biessiein that folder it's looking for 7.300:10
sarnoldBiessie: so take a look at your /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php7.3.load file and if it's got local changes, save them aside, or not, as necessary, and try a2disable php7.3   and then a2enable php7.4 and re-do any local configuration changes that might be necessary00:12

zechariahhey guys/gals, i'm trying to setup a jailed user and i'm getting "pledge: network, broken pipe" -- what am I missing? I've setup the user's base directoy as owned by root, setup the forcecommand for internal-sftp, configured the group.. a bit stuck.03:06
sarnoldzechariah: pledge() is an openbsd interface; are you sure what you're doing is supported on linux?03:09
zechariahI've never specifically had an ssh client return a pledge failure in verbose output, but as far as jailed user on sshd_config, sure, I definitively know that is supported and have set it up a few times in the past.03:11
zechariahthe pledge error is from ssh client, while trying to connect to the jailed ssh server, if that helps.03:11
zechariahhere is the last couple of lines of the failed ssh connection: debug1: Entering interactive session. > debug1: pledge: network packet_write_wait: Connection to ** port 22: Broken pipe > Connection closed03:12
zechariahutilizing sftp command*03:12
zechariah(pardon, I said ssh, but I suppose sftp !== ssh..)03:12
zechariahon that note though, ssh is returning the same error..03:13
sarnoldzechariah: aha! how about the server logs?03:15
zechariahinitially when my auth was failing, i had some logs in auth.log or syslog, can't recall; but now that my auth is passing, nothing is being recorded;/03:15
zechariah(i didn't have my folder permissions properly setup on the user's home directory, so it was complaining to me and not authenticating) -- but since than, no logs.. Just that output immediately following "authentication succeeded (pubkey)"03:16
zechariahas far as config; I have: Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (also tried internal-sftp...), and than: "Match Group jailedUserGroup", "ChrootDirectory %h, ForceCommand internal-sftp, AllowTcpForwarding no, X11Forwarding no". I've tried with UsePam no/yes, AllowGroups jailedUserGroup, and a few other configurations but they all give me the03:21
zechariahsame thing. Just for clarity sake, I did restart sshd after each config change before attempting.03:21
zechariahIf it would be helpful, I can paste this somewhere to be a bit more readable with proper formatting03:22
sarnoldhmmm that %h reminds me of something03:25
sarnoldI wonder what03:25
zechariahI believe it represents the user's home directory03:25
zechariahSo when used in conjunction with ChrootDirectory, it should reference the users home directory, which is suppose to be owned by root (for jail to properly work)03:25
sarnoldhmm maybe I'm remembering something in a systemd unit file, I think %h was removed from some directives in one of those...03:26
zechariahand than you make another folder, which is owned by the user, in that user's "home directory" which is.. owned by root. Seems a bit contrived, but that's the setup, as I understand it (and I've set it up before.. I bet I'm missing something obvious..)03:26
zechariahhurm. I could be off base for sure as well, worth noting, but from a bit of digging I did on the ol goog, it does seem to be the way to specify the jailed users home directory. (unless i'm greatly confused, which is definitely possible!!)03:27
zechariahwell, i'm obviously confused, as i'm asking for help, but yeah heh03:27
zechariahat any rate, i definitely don't wanna pester ya if you're not sure. I appreciate the feedback either way ^_^03:28
zechariahSomeone suggested perhaps trying to use a folder that isn't the jailed user's home directory. Let me give that a go, will report back either way <303:33
sarnoldzechariah: sorry, it's just the usual trying to do too many things at once03:35
zechariahOh no worries at all, I appreciate your time.03:36
sarnoldzechariah: so, my next guess -- when you set up a chroot, probably openssh is going to execute the sftp program *after* doing the chroot03:36
sarnoldzechariah: .. at least I'm 60% sure I'd read that once03:37
InteloIs OBS studio enough to record an echoless sound and highest quality video? Can echo be completely eliminated by software instead of forms/hardware on walls?03:38
sarnoldIntelo: I have to wonder, if you'd started trying things out when you first asked, if you would have found the answer by now :)03:43
sarnoldzechariah: sorry, it's time for me to head out :( good luck, and I'd be curious to hear the resolution once you get it :) thanks03:46
Intelosarnold: I didn't found; so kept asking03:47
sarnoldIntelo: ah, okay03:48
zechariahHrm, so trying a jailed directory that *isn't* the users home directory didn't net any improvement.04:10
=== chessking_ is now known as chessking
zechariahAs soon as I implement the ChrootDirectory %s it stops working with that broken pipe. If I comment *just* that line out it works. What in the heck ... hurm04:11
masonzechariah: Are you remembering that your paths are relative to the chroot you set?04:13
masonSo, if your home directory is /foo/bar, /my/chroot/foo/bar must exist?04:13
zechariahso i'm using %h, which should be the user's home directory, or so I thought..04:17
zechariahbut when I tried to explicitly define another directory, I just defined the path as /some/path/here -- perhaps that was a problem?04:17
zechariahOn that note, I did just manage to get it working. I'm not sure exactly what I did differently this time, but I had to be looking something obvious over previously, as my config is essentially the same (I'm just using the user's home directory, which this time is in /home/user, versus /var/www/project/userhome04:19
zechariahSo I really appreciate y'alls time and feedback, even if I'm not sure why in the heck it's working now ^_^04:20
zechariahto hell with changing it though, i'm just going to symlink it and move on lol04:20

ax562does anyone know the reason ubuntu left the old init.d way?15:57
oerheksax562, it is not an ubuntu thing. it is linux-wide15:58
oerheksFedora did this as first, iirc.15:59
ax562curious to why though15:59
oerheksevolution. init had its limits.15:59
ax562i really don't see any limits, maybe security...16:00
oerheksgo take a read, search for pros and cons systemd.16:01

Sven_vBAbhi1802, it will probably help the pirate if you explain your experience with the quick start guide, what other install methods you tried, and what their errors were.16:14
Abhi1802i am feel to tired and furustated today so i will do all my stuffs tomorrow now, and i will try docker that will probably work Sven_vB16:20
Sven_vBok good luck with it :)16:21

uberushaximusConfig file is here http://ix.io/2u9Y16:32
uberushaximusCan someone tell me why -DCONFIG_DRIVER_MACSEC_LINUX -DCONFIG_DRIVER_MACSEC_QCA -DCONFIG_MACSEC is still being set?16:33

xheimlichI have the darndest problem.16:50
xheimlichI've been using Ubuntu with spectrwm for a while.16:51
xheimlichspectrwm is just a window manager, right.16:51
xheimlichso we sent for faster cable internet because home office zoom calls and whatnot.16:53
xheimlichthey gave us a router that sends out two wi-fi networks, one "2.4G" (I assume Ghz) and one "5G".16:54
prominentpotatoelias_a Another way is to just run Libre Writer and look through. ;]16:55
xheimlichso on my old window computer the 5GHz wi-fi network is fine. on Ubuntu too.16:55
xheimlichon Ubuntu with the default GUI. I switch to spectrwm and it doesn't work.16:56
xheimlichwtf...16:56
xheimlichI can confirm with  iwconfig that it's connected to the 5ghz network. But it doesn't work.16:56
tatertotzxheimlich: do you have a ethernet cable to use when using "spectrwm"?16:56
xheimlichwifi.16:57
xheimlichahh. I understand.16:57
tatertotzxheimlich: if you cannot hardwire to connect when using "spectwm" to aid you in troubleshooting in realtime, you'll have to just go over there and see what you can do16:57
xheimlichI basically came to get out of my chest that this is even happening. Maybe rubber duck it. I understand there's a hundred specific things you cant possibly debug over IRC.16:58
xheimlichrubber duck = rubber duck debug. Happens to me a lot.17:00
tatertotzgood luck17:03
Sven_vBwhat's a good terminal emulator that can run on Ubuntu focal, can run terminal windows as their own process (so I can use their process IDs), and has command line options to control: window posititon, window size (pixels or rows/colums), window title, icon (same for window and taskbar), window name or class (ideally both), and command line to execute inside?17:05
elias_aprominentpotato: Thanks but the takes ages. :)17:10
rfmSven_vB, pretty sure good old xterm can do all that17:14
Sven_vBrfm, how can I make it load the window icon from an image file?17:17
Sven_vBor is there a way to replace the window icon later by window id and/or process id? (assuming xterm at least won't "defend" itself against that)17:23
christophergrayxterm -n iconname17:27
christophergraychange later with wmctrl -I iconname17:28
Sven_vBseems to not work with SVG, I'll try a PNG.17:30
christophergrayI have a keyboard shortcut set to xterm -fa 'Ubuntu Mono' -fs 14 -geometry 105x24+960+24 -e /usr/bin/ncmpcpp17:31
Sven_vBwhat I tried but got the default xterm icon: xterm -n /usr/share/icons/HighContrast/48x48/categories/applications-science.png -e sleep 4h17:31
Sven_vBsame with just xterm -n applications-science -e sleep 4h17:32
rfm Sven_vB  I believe most modern window managers don't honor the old X icon property, assigning the icon from the .desktop file or something17:33
Sven_vBrfm, creating a temporary .desktop file would be an option. I'll try that.17:33
Sven_vBdefault icon even with that approach. (in xfce 4)17:35
Sven_vBmaybe it just needs another graphics format, neither SVG nor PNG.17:36
Sven_vBalbeit it would sure be nice to have a terminal emulator that can do the above things *and* load PNG icons.17:38
Sven_vBits own packaged icons seem to be in xpm, but even that doesn't work. (converted with ImageMagick's "convert", then xterm -n /home/sven/science.xpm -e sleep 3h)17:41
TuorI do have 2x 4K displays at work (I would prefer 1440p, maybe I find someone to switch in the future). The company I work for does buy a new lenovo laptop and dokin for me. I'm the only guy using linux is the company. I would love having a 2.5" SATA slot and 1 nvme (for OS and programms). It should work well with linux and just do it's job. Some programming, browsers, communication slack teams zoom, and some VMs with virtualbox. What do you use or what17:44
Tuorwould you buy?17:44
Tuor(hi first of all, sorry)17:44
Sven_vBTuor, you mean what notebook to buy?17:45
oerheksTuor, we don't do recommendations for hardware buying. just technical ubuntu support.17:45
Tuoroerheks: sad. :(17:45
oerhekstry #ubuntu-offtopic or ##hardware?17:46
Sven_vBchristophergray, wmctrl -I succeeds (exit status 0) but I cannot find any visible effect.17:47
christophergraySven_vB: docs say to use -I with -r but even that doesn't work here also in xubuntu17:50
Sven_vBchristophergray, yes I used wmctrl -xir 0x0e600034 -I ???17:51
gargantuatrying to remove package emacs26 from kellyk repo, this is the error im getting http://frezr.com/paste/emacs.html17:57
gargantuakeep trying to remove the dependencies but it gets larger and larger the more I add...17:57
Sven_vBgargantua, did you mean remove the packages that depend upon emacs26?18:00
Sven_vBgargantua, you could try apt instead of apt-get, I think that should suggest some solutions.18:00
gargantuathink I got it18:01
christophergraySven_vB: It seems than it is not the name of the icon, but the name FOR the icon18:02
christophergraytwm had big icons with labels18:03
christophergrayyou could iconify a window and it would appear on the desktop with a label, and xterm can changes its own label with -n18:06
Sven_vBchristophergray, yes I think a long time ago I had used that in a session with no window manager to set the label18:06
Sven_vBchristophergray, from another project I also investigated modifying the icon with xset, but I was only able to access a legacy fallback 1-bit black/white icon that way.18:08
Sven_vBlooks like finding an easy-to-customize terminal emulator is a hard problem after all.18:09
Sven_vBback then I also researched ways to swap icons for any window, under the impression that it should be an easy feature of any "full" window manager, but at least in xfce it seemed it's not.18:11
Sven_vBmaybe it's time I investigate that LD_PRELOAD approach more.18:12
xheimlichso I came in earlier claiming that my new 5Ghz wi-fi network functioned on the  default ubuntu gui but not in spectrwm for whatever inscrutable reason18:25
xheimlichbut then I switched back and it does work.18:25
xheimlichbut I have a script that pings google every five seconds to update my menu bar thing gizmo. and that was reading 100% packet loss.18:26
xheimlichfor whatever inscrutable reason "ping google.com" fails.18:26
xheimlichbut something like speedtest.net goes vroom vroom18:26
Sven_vBxheimlich, usually ping should print an error message when it fails.18:26
xheimlich(on a browser. ping speedtest.net also fails.)18:27
Sven_vBxheimlich, maybe the browsers uses a proxy?18:27
Sven_vBor the remote site just doesn't offer ping replies18:27
xheimlichSven_vB: yeah. it was a simple script with tail and awk.18:27
Sven_vBor you might have a firewall issue.18:27
xheimlichSven_vB: I don't think it's a browser proxy because I'm on irssi here.18:28
Sven_vBif there's something strange on your network, usually wireshark can identify it.18:28
xheimlichok. ping is using ipv6 addresses. I've never seen this.18:29
Sven_vBxheimlich, maybe you hadn't had IPv6 connectivity earlier?18:34
OnkelTemFolks, how to configure autologin into tty1 on Ubuntu 18.04? I tried the guide from https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/401759/automatically-login-on-debian-9-2-1-command-line but it doesn't really work as expected: I don't get into terminal18:39
OnkelTemI just see a black script with blinking cursor on tty118:39
OnkelTemscreen*18:39
xheimlichSven_vB: possibly. I upgraded my cable internet plan and they supplied one of those combined cable modem + wifi router things. but the wifi router now produces two wifi networks, one at 2.4ghz and one at 5ghz.18:41
xheimlichmaybe the combo router does something weird.18:41
xheimlichprevents me from tracerouting?18:43
tatertotzxheimlich: so internet is working after all...good18:46

BlueShark_Hi. Do bluetooth headphones have a bad history with Ubuntu, or is it just me?19:41
BlueShark_Especially the microphone part.19:41
BlueShark_Audio is really bad if it's in the A2DP mode. Microphone doesn't work in that mode, so I switch to HFP/HSP mode - then audio becomes worse, and the mic voice on the other end is also equally bad (to the point that the other person can't even recognize the person).19:43
oerheksnot generally.19:43
oerheksmake sure you have the highest BT dongle/chipset..19:43
BlueShark_oerheks: how do I confirm that?19:44
oerhekslspci, or lsusb will show details, and 8 digit hex number19:46

derek0883yes,21:09
derek0883Currently we have some software running on 16.04,21:09
tomreynderek0883: anything before grub is hardware / firmware, really21:17
tomreynmaybe the grub menu just doesn't show and you haven't tried to bring it up?21:18
\malex\might want to check if it's some weird uefi issue and if bios mode works better. or grub is trying to use a graphics mode that isn't working21:23
oerheksWhat GPU is in that dell 7920?21:24

Kereshi, i have a Texas Instruments PCM2900 Audio Codec device that is hard wired with no input gain21:55
Keresi cant adjust the device, since it is a record player needle21:56
Keresspecifically, the old  needle has less gain than the replacement21:56
Keresso the driver has no way to compensate for this21:56
Keresand i cant just rock the arm back because the needle is designed for a specific weight21:57
Keresin the alsamixer, there is a PCM gain for listening back, but no slider for input gain21:57
Keresalso in Audacity there is not input gain as well.21:58
sarnoldKeres: how about pavucontrol?21:59
sarnoldKeres: you may also need to go somewhere more specialized; the folks in #lau may have more ideas22:00
Kereswell the driver in this turntable is the same as the one in my tape deck22:23
KeresI dont need to adjust the tape deck since it is perfectly matched to the output level of the tape22:24
Keresbut the thing about turntables is that they have a needle with a lifespan only so long.22:24
Keresand some needles are more heavy than others22:24
Keresor... the weight on the arm and record is specific to each needle... shouldnt be changed or you get skips22:25
Kereson this needle, it gaINS up the level just a tiny bit so that it clips the peaks off22:25
LunchThiefHi there! Canonical used to provide live ubuntu cds / dvds / usb drives from its store ( shop.canonical.com ), which however has closed now. Is it still possible to get live ubuntu media from official sources?22:45
tomreynLunchThief: there are certainly still some shops selling those, but nothing 'official', i guess. what's your use case?22:47
sarnoldnot that I know of; I heard they were nice little usb sticks22:47
oerheksLunchThief, no, find a community member in your area. they are happy to help creating an USB22:52
LunchThieftomreyn: mostly recovery, however from security perspective I presume its best to get official media from official sources. Too bad that canonical shop had to go :(22:53
oerheksthose fancy canonical usb devices are no longer available, shop is closed.22:53
oerheksLuone should always do a check, or use the buildin checksum22:53

oerheksmwa, there is sha too22:55
tomreynLunchThief: if you can get to a place with good internet access, like na internet cafe, maybe you can download an iso there and write it yourself after verifying the checksum, and the gpg signature on the checksum22:56
sarnoldcould someone who knows the bot well amend these things to use https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-verify-ubuntu instead? :)22:56
LunchThiefYes, I am aware of checksums & gpg signatures. However, u need to have a trustworthy system to begin with.22:56

sarnoldhggdh: hello :) is the bot factoid !md5sum easy to change to mention https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-verify-ubuntu instead? :)22:57
tomreynLunchThief: true. there are a lot of different levels of trustworthy when it comes to computers, and you'll hardly get along without compromising.22:59
tomreynLunchThief: i haven't heard of a malware infecting .iso files, though. so i guess even if you download an iso from a compromised computer and write it to a usb stick, it can still be safe. no promises, though. ;)23:02
Kevinin ubuntu 16.04 there was a popup when I attached something to the 3.5mm audio jack to ask what type of device is it. on the same computer model with ubutu 18.04 there's no dialog and it always works as headphones. how can you switch this?23:03
donofrioanyone know what server/channel HypriotOS lives?  want to see if flash --config will allow static ip setting on my rpi (https://www.tinyurl.com/donofriovines/photos/tech/turing-pi-adventure) that I'm setting up.  the console doesn't seem to have a working keyboard (dunno why)23:04
LunchThiefI am just a casual user, who is concerned about security / bootkits / rootkits especially for banking. Recently my laptop hdd died, and I am exploring best ways to rebuild it. Also I do not have access to any other trustworthy system right now except for my phone :(23:05
donofriotried the 20.04.01 armhf server image aand keyboard still didn't start ;(23:06
Kevinan android phone can write to usb but it would have to already be rooted to allow you to do it23:07
Kevinotherwise, having no computer, you could order install media from a trustworthy source23:08
LunchThiefKevin: there r some apps in playstore that do it for unrooted phones too. Not sure how *trustworthy* they are though.23:09
LunchThiefFor now I am just living within termux :(23:10
KevinI don't think the os gives apps enough access to directly reformat a storage device23:10
LunchThiefYou just need a pre-formatted pen drive, which I have. I probably will have to find a way to install the bootloader though.23:12
Kevinif your computer is using uefi it's possible to boot from a file on a fat32 formatted msdos partition23:14
Kevinwhich the standard file manager on a phone can write to23:15
Kevinbut extra work needed to copy all the installer files in the right format instead of as an image23:15
LunchThiefOkay, can you point to some guide to boot from a file. I do have uefi.23:16
Kevinthe file (for eg grub) needs to be at /efi/boot/bootx64.efi on the drive23:17
Kevinthere's a copy of this in any modern linux installer, but they usually use a complicated disk format for the images23:18
Kevin(to allow booting as a cd or dvd also)23:18
LunchThiefOkay, thanks for the tips Kevin. I will look into this and get back. As I said, I am currently living inside termux without keyboard & mouse :(23:19
