[00:01] <bdiddy> upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04 yay or nay?
[00:02] <sarnold> bdiddy: I'd say most folks I've seen here seem happy with the upgrade
[00:02] <bdiddy> ok cool thanks
[00:02] <sarnold> bdiddy: but certainly some wished they stuck with the previous release, as with all new LTS releases :)
[00:03] <bdiddy> BAH
[00:03] <bdiddy> lol
[00:03] <bdiddy> seems most negativity i read is about snap
[00:05] <zerocode> how can i remove passwd using for apps like skype and chromium-brows
[00:06] <zerocode> and save it
[00:09] <Bashing-om> zerocode:
[00:09] <Bashing-om> Close Chrome. Open the file manager, press ctrl+H or show hidden files from menu, go to .local/share/keyrings, move the content to some backup place. Then logout and log back in. Open Chrome, there will be a pop up asking you to set a keyring password, leave it blank, confirm, then it shouldn't bother you anymore. If everything works, you can delete the backup you saved earlier.
[00:10] <zerocode> pam?

[00:46] <sarnold> mm tacos
[00:46] <tacomaster> :D they are good
[00:50] <tacomaster> I am trying to figure out what is going on here. I am running ubuntu 20.04 and when running "systemctl status" I get the status is degraded. When I just run "systemctl" I see that the service that is failing is vboxweb.service but I do not even have the vboxweb.service because it is stopped and virtualbox works. When running "journalctl -xe | grep vboxweb" I see vboxweb.service: Failed with result 'protocol'. Does anyone know how t
[00:50] <tacomaster> o dig into this issue more to figure out what is going on?
[00:52] <bayman> how to ufw allow from 10.10.10.0/24 to 443/tcp
[00:52] <sarnold> tacomaster: try systemctl status vboxweb
[00:53] <tacomaster> bayman, sudo ufw allow from 10.10.10.0/24 to any port 443
[00:53] <tacomaster> sarnold, I get the same error. I can post the entire thing on paste.ubuntu.com if you want
[00:54] <bayman> thanks. do I need to save?
[00:54] <tacomaster> bayman, that will save it
[00:54] <sarnold> tacomaster: I can give it a look, anyway, but no promises, I've not used vbox in a dozen years or more
[00:54] <tacomaster> bayman, and for your information I got the answer from here https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/ufw-essentials-common-firewall-rules-and-commands
[00:55] <tacomaster> sarnold, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/zJ7sBr64Ks/
[00:56] <tacomaster> sarnold, I would not use vbox except I have 2 apps from my job that do not work correctly in wine.
[00:58] <sarnold> tacomaster: hmm, curious; is there anything in dmesg? could you pastebin the output of systemctl cat vboxweb.service  ?
[00:58] <tacomaster> sarnold, I will run any command you ask unless it is dangerous
[01:00] <tacomaster> sarnold, Here is the output you were asking for https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/b5SjyQd9Wj/ . I am about to look at dmesag now
[01:02] <amazoniantoad> Hey I'm trying to run the xen hypervisor on ubuntu 20.04.1 but when I try to boot up into xen I get "panic on cpu 0" and then reboots
[01:02] <tacomaster> dmesg does have information about other virtualbox services but not the web service
[01:02] <amazoniantoad> Can anyone help me figure out how to fix this issue?
[01:02] <sarnold> tacomaster: hah that's simpler than I expected; I was expecting something like a ProtectSystem= directives... hmmm
[01:03] <tacomaster> sarnold, stupid question but do you think it could be ufw blocking the ability to connect to a port?
[01:04] <sarnold> tacomaster: probably not
[01:04] <tacomaster> sarnold, nvm forget what I said. I just did an sudo ufw disable and still having the same issue
[01:04] <sarnold> ohhhhhhhhhh
[01:06] <sarnold> tacomaster: current guess: sudo sysctl -a | grep fs.pro
[01:07] <tacomaster> sarnold, Do you mind explaining that command to me?
[01:07] <sarnold> tacomaster: it'll show the value of four sysctls that control filesystem operations
[01:08] <amazoniantoad> Can anyone help me with my issue? :/
[01:08] <tacomaster> sarnold, I should have just looked at the man page. It was very descriptive
[01:08] <sarnold> amazoniantoad: sorry, not me, I haven't used xen in something like fifteen years ..
[01:08] <sarnold> tacomaster: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sysctl/fs.txt
[01:08] <sarnold> tacomaster: ah :)
[01:08]  * Examknow hasn't a clue either
[01:09] <amazoniantoad> thanks anyway guys
[01:09] <Examknow> Sorry :)
[01:09] <sarnold> tacomaster: try sysctl -w fs.protected_regular=0
[01:09] <tacomaster> sarnold, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Wh7rzvDM9F/ this is the output
[01:11] <tacomaster> sarnold, One second while I read up on what this will do exactly
[01:16] <tacomaster> sarnold, I get sysctl: "fs.protected" must be of the form name=value"
[01:16] <tacomaster> and sysctl: cannot stat /proc/sys/regular: no such file or directory
[01:16] <sarnold> tacomaster: hmm, did you miss the =0 or did I screw up my command? :)
[01:17] <sarnold> tacomaster: hmm.. or did you retype the thing and miss the _ ?
[01:17] <tacomaster> I copy and pasted it
[01:17] <sarnold> $ sudo sysctl -w fs.protected_regular=0
[01:17] <sarnold> fs.protected_regular = 0
[01:18] <tacomaster> sarnold, nvm I just copied it again and it worked. I bet I had some white space in the copy
[01:18] <sarnold> aha good good
[01:18] <sarnold> now try restarting that service
[01:18] <tacomaster> sarnold, Same error
[01:19] <sarnold> :( :(
[01:19] <tacomaster> sarnold, Is there a way to remove it as I will never use the web service?
[01:20] <sarnold> tacomaster: heh that's another option :D systemctl disable vboxweb.service    ought to do the trick
[01:20] <tacomaster> sarnold, Its already disabled and I am still having the warning message. I mean actually remove it
[01:21] <sarnold> tacomaster: try systemctl mask vboxweb.service  ?
[01:22] <tacomaster> sarnold, is there an issue with just doing a "sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/vboxweb.service" ?
[01:25] <tacomaster> sarnold, Well it seems that the rm command made the state show running again instead of degraded
[01:25] <sarnold> tacomaster: that file 'just' has your local customizations; if it is still in /lib/something then it'll still be run
[01:25] <sarnold> o_O
[01:28] <tacomaster> sarnold, I swear linux can be such a pain to setup but once it is setup everything works like a dream.
[02:27] <ckb> can someone help me figure out why supervisord won't launch my config file in conf.d?
[02:28] <sarnold> what's supervisord?
[02:28] <ckb> sarnold, http://supervisord.org/
[02:29] <sarnold> ckb: how did you configure it? how did you set up supervisord to run?
[02:30] <ckb> sarnold, https://hastebin.com/apojukeray.ini
[02:31] <sarnold> ckb: try giving the full pathname to your php executable
[02:32] <ckb> sarnold, still nothing :(
[02:33] <ckb> interesting: CRIT Server 'unix_http_server' running without any HTTP authentication checking
[02:34] <sarnold> ckb: okay, so, next question, how are you starting supervisord at boot?
[02:34] <ckb> service supervisor start? when I installed it, it set up the init for me...
[02:35] <ckb> so supervisor will start on boot.
[02:35] <sarnold> check its log files and see if it had problems starting?
[02:35] <ckb> sarnold, that what I pasted: CRIT Server 'unix_http_server'
[02:36] <ckb> I got it :D
[02:37] <sarnold> oh good, what was it?
[02:37] <ckb> it just wanted a http authentication in supervisor.conf
[03:18] <truexfan81> in 2 days i will be switching from nvidia to amd with ubuntu 20.04 what do i need to do to have it ready before i power it off to swap the cards?
[03:20] <sarnold> truexfan81: I've not done it yet myself, but i think install xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu and linux-firmware
[03:20] <truexfan81> if i go ahead and do that now will it break anything? i'm running the nvidia proprietary driver
[03:21] <sarnold> I suspect it's probably fine
[03:22] <truexfan81> oh, it's fine, apt says both are already installed lulz
[03:22] <truexfan81> so just remove all nvidia packages and then poweroff i guess
[03:25] <sarnold> hooray :)
[03:33] <k_sze> Oh no. A new grub update. (fingers crossed)
[03:34]  * truexfan81 uses systemd boot
[04:19] <chikkoroll> hi all =), Would someone please recommend a (recent/relevent) link to a page that details how to use logs in cli/bash to look for errors/problems- my pc tends to lock up at times and no combination of key presses will allow me to open shell/bash-i want to find out why but am not experienced in the area of inspecting logs(but id like to learn) thanks for help/links comments
[04:27] <akem> chikkoroll, The logs are in /var/log have a looks in kern.log thats the kernel or syslog, you can use the command 'grep' to search for strings inside of the files. Also the dmesg command can be handy to print some log infos.
[05:34] <MzR_Massey> Goood evening to all
[05:38] <MzR_Massey> how would someone mount 2 separate drives to a ubuntu 16.04.7 server?
[05:42] <matsaman> MzR_Massey: for what purpose
[05:43] <MzR_Massey> for storage, via FTP
[05:43] <MzR_Massey> I have 3 drives total on my dedicated server, a Main  SSD 240GB, and two 1-TB HHD drives
[05:43] <matsaman> probably you'd want to add an entry in /etc/fstab for it, similar to but not exactly matching the line you have for the '/' partition
[05:44] <matsaman> that'll ensure it's mounted at boot, if done right; and without rebooting you can 'mount LABEL=whatever' to mount it, again if done right
[05:44] <matsaman> and then there are fancier things you can do to pretend they are one storage medium
[05:44] <matsaman> like using mhddfs, or LVM, or a ton of other things
[05:47] <MzR_Massey> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mDF4vtwkgz/  this is what that file looks like
[05:48] <matsaman> MzR_Massey: okay so your root FS is using LVM
[05:50] <MzR_Massey> Okay,  not entirely sure if that's a good thing or not
[05:50] <matsaman> it's what the installer defaulted to probably
[05:52] <matsaman> I don't use LVM, though, so I can't offer you personally acquired info.
[05:52] <matsaman> MzR_Massey: https://askubuntu.com/questions/458476/adding-disks-with-lvm
[05:53] <matsaman> the traditional way would be to look at lsblk -f, find the device you're intersted in, make sure it's formatted the way you want (mkfs.ext4, etc.) and give it a label (e2label, etc.); then add a line like 'LABEL=whatever /mnt/whatever ext4 defaults 0 2'
[05:54] <MzR_Massey> thanks for that,  that link helps
[05:56] <MzR_Massey> If the drive is using LVM, would that be running on the system already?
[05:56] <tatertotz> MzR_Massey: you could actually look at see
[05:57] <tatertotz> MzR_Massey: do you have access to the computer right now?
[05:57] <MzR_Massey> Yes its a dedicated server, i'm logged in as Root currently
[05:57] <MzR_Massey> through putty
[06:00] <tatertotz> MzR_Massey: lsblk -f|nc termbin.com 9999
[06:01] <MzR_Massey> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/y3PcSzQKpn/  this is what I see when I run sudo fdisk -l
[06:05] <tatertotz> MzR_Massey: give some thought to what you want to do, then do some research on it
[06:09] <MzR_Massey> sorry - I got disconnected (Thanks to the modem here)
[06:10] <tatertotz> MzR_Massey: give some thought to what you want to do, then do some research on it
[07:13] <mkopriva> noob here so maybe what I'm asking don't make no sense; How can I upgrade the kernel from 4.15.0-99-generic to 4.15.0-112.113?
[07:19] <Maik> mkopriva: the 4.15 kernels are EOL afaik
[07:20] <Maik> mkopriva: which version of Ubuntu are you on, 18.04?
[07:20] <mkopriva> Maik: yup, Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS
[07:21] <Maik> i'd go HWE: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[07:23] <guiverc> Maik, 4.15 is the supported GA (generic) kernel for 18.04 (ie. without HWE) and is supported the lifetime of 18.04 LTS
[07:24] <Maik> guiverc: thanks, i totally forgot about. My bad.
[07:24] <guiverc> :)
[07:43] <samuelrajan747> guys how to setup auto restarting a failed service in upstart?
[09:02] <Exterminador> hello guys. I've messed up when installing mongodb-org package and now I'm wondering if there's a way to force it to reinstall the /etc/mongod.conf
[09:04] <chikkoroll> thanks akem
[09:04] <chikkoroll> akem, thanks
[09:05] <_vaibhavingale_> any pointers i can make network change listener in the c ?  like when wifi or ethernet interfaces changes their states
[09:11] <furycd001> @Exterminador: You could try reinstalling the package with >> apt-get --reinstall install mongodb-org
[09:15] <Exterminador> furycd001: will give it a shot,thanks
[09:23] <Duality> hi i need help with compiling something it tells me that a include is missing is this the right place to ask?
[09:24] <Duality> I installed the package gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf
[09:24] <Duality> and it's telling me that <sys/io.h> is missing
[09:25] <Duality> maybe i am missing glibc
[09:25] <Duality> or something
[09:26] <jeremy31> Duality: is build-essential installed?
[09:30] <Duality> I installed it but it is still not found
[09:33] <Duality> i'll be right back
[09:37] <Duality> Tried a reboot just to see if that would work
[09:39] <jeremy31> All I can find is to use #include <sys/uio.h> instead
[09:41] <Duality> jeremy31: yea but i read that was for osx?
[09:41] <Duality> could give it a try
[09:43] <Duality> it works though
[09:43] <Duality> i don't know what changed this used to compile on a different system but the compiler was a bit older though
[09:44] <Duality> maybe that's the problem
[09:49] <jeremy31> Duality: trying to build kernel modules?
[09:52] <Duality> no
[09:52] <Duality> but i just figured out if i comment out the include <sys/io.h> it compiles fine
[09:59] <zetheroo> So I updated the firmware on my mobile broadband device (EM7345) in Windows 10 and tested it in Ubuntu 18.04 and it worked like a charm. Back in Ubuntu 20.04 now and it's still not working
[10:00] <zetheroo> https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/SrY6pWT7FK/
[10:00] <apw> zetheroo, did you update the firmware on the device or just in windows; as it is most likely loaded on initialisation on all OSs
[10:02] <zetheroo> apw: on the device. As I said, it's working perfectly in Ubuntu 18.04
[10:03] <apw> zetheroo, for clarity it was not working in 18.04 then you updated it in windows 10, and then it was in 18.04?
[10:03] <zetheroo> In the info I posted above you can also see the new FW version:    firmware revision: FIH7160_V1.2_WW_01.1616.01
[10:05] <zetheroo> apw: no. It wasn't working in 20.04 and it was complaining that there was no SIM inserted when there was, then after a lot of digging around online it became apparent that I had to upgrade the FW on the module, so I did that in Windows (no other way). Then I tested it in 18.04 and it worked.
[10:05] <zetheroo> Now in 20.04 and no dice - but at least it's no longer complaining about there being no SIM
[10:05] <apw> zetheroo, so we don't know if it made 18.04 work; it may have been working before too
[10:06] <pikapika> Is there any way to disable unattended-upgrades without uninstalling it?
[10:06] <zetheroo> apw: sure
[10:06] <pikapika> 18.04 lts btw
[10:07] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[10:07] <apw> zetheroo, it is important to have accurate information.  sounds like you should file a bug against linux with this information; get a dmesg of it in the working state in 18.04 and non-working state in 20.04
[10:07] <apw> with luck there will be a clue in the difference
[10:08] <apw> once you ahve a bug filed, mention it in #ubuntu-kernel by number
[10:08] <pikapika> How do firmware upgrades on such obscure hardwares work?
[10:08] <pikapika> Do they have like some proprietary cable or interface through which the software communicates with the device>
[10:09] <zetheroo> apw: I just took it back out of the 18.04/Windows dualboot laptop and put it back in the 20.04 laptop ... so not moving it again :/
[10:10] <pikapika> How much did it cost?
[10:12] <zetheroo>  pikapika: you asking me?
[10:12] <pikapika> Yes
[10:15] <zetheroo>  pikapika: how much did the module cost?
[10:15] <pikapika> Yes
[10:15] <chikkoroll> hi all having trouble adding usb to a VM whether i try to add with the machine running then restart, with it powered off. what gives guys-it only shows usb 1.0 no 2.0 or 3.0, I have installed the guest-addon cd run it in the VM, not joy-any ideas
[10:15] <zetheroo>  pikapika: about 30USD
[10:16] <zetheroo> why?
[10:18] <pikapika> I was curious
[10:24] <apw> zetheroo, as noone wants to touch these kinds of broadband interfaces (due to the regulatory risk) they are normally exposed over a serial style port as a modem so i predict a driver difference in the kernel.  but without logs it will be near impossible to diagnose
[10:25] <zetheroo> apw: what kind of logs do you need?
[10:25] <apw> zetheroo, the ones i mentioned above as a minimum i would think
[10:26] <apw> which is why i asked about them, but if you can't get them, then life is difficult
[10:26] <apw> if switching is hard, then also the modem-manager logs too
[10:27] <zetheroo> I mean I have the 18.04 laptop running right here as well
[10:27] <apw> you might also want to checkw hcih kernel you are using in the 18.04 one which is working.  if it is the HWE kernel (at 5.4) then that likely means it is not a kernel issue and may point elsewhere
[10:28] <zetheroo1> apw: this is me on the 18.04 laptop
[10:28] <zetheroo1> kernel info: Linux eab-ux 4.15.0-112-generic #113-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jul 9 23:41:39 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[10:28] <zetheroo1> what other info can I dig out from this system for you?
[10:29] <apw> ok so it could be kernel related, then as you do have a differnet one
[10:29] <zetheroo> apw: 20.04 kernel info Linux eb-T420 5.4.0-45-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 26 13:38:52 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[10:29] <apw> zetheroo1, i can't say for sure, it needs to be all put in a bug; irc is too fleeting
[10:30] <zetheroo1> apw: ok, but what info should I put into the bug?
[10:31] <apw> zetheroo1, a description of the issue, dmesg and modem-manager logs (i guess) from when it worked and when it does not
[10:31] <zetheroo1> where are the modem-manager logs?
[10:32] <zetheroo1> can't find them in /var/log/
[10:33] <apw> zetheroo1, your pastebin implies it is a systemd unit which has logs via journalctl iirc
[10:34] <apw> zetheroo, your pastebin implies it is a systemd unit which has logs via journalctl iirc
[10:34] <zetheroo1> ok
[10:35] <zetheroo1> do you know off the top of your head how to limit the output to the last 3 hours?
[10:36] <apw> sorry no
[10:38] <zetheroo1> I did
[10:39] <zetheroo1> sudo journalctl --since "2020-09-01 23:00" --until "2020-09-02 12:00" | grep Modem
[10:39] <zetheroo1> and there was no output
[10:41] <EriC^^> zetheroo1: maybe with grep modem?
[10:41] <zetheroo1> even though I had the module in this laptop and connected in 18.04, there seems to be no entries today from ModemManager
[10:41] <zetheroo1> the last entry was yesterday
[10:42] <zetheroo1> Sep 01 17:40:17 eab-ux NetworkManager[1294]: <info>  [1598974817.8979] modem-manager: ModemManager no longer available
[10:42] <tatertotz> zetheroo1: did the firmware update resolve SIM not detected?
[10:42] <zetheroo1>  EriC^^: you mean as opposed to grep for Modem?
[10:43] <zetheroo1> tatertotz: yes
[10:43] <zetheroo1> now it no longer complains anywhere about the SIM not being present
[10:43] <zetheroo> tatertotz:  https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/SrY6pWT7FK/
[10:44] <tatertotz> zetheroo1: looks like it still is unable to load carrier config
[10:44] <zetheroo> tatertotz: it worked perfectly in 18.04
[10:45] <tatertotz> zetheroo: maybe it's not supported in > 18.xx
[10:46] <tatertotz> zetheroo: couldn't load carrier configuration or couldn't load Supported Bands: 'Unsupported'
[10:47] <tatertotz> zetheroo: interesting the carrier config is received on 18.xx just not on 20.xx
[10:47] <zetheroo> :/
[10:47] <zetheroo> disappointing more like
[10:47] <tatertotz> zetheroo: maybe it needs even a further update to work on 18.xx
[10:47] <zetheroo> It's got the latest FW already
[10:48] <tatertotz> zetheroo: maybe it needs even a further update to work on .xx
[10:48] <tatertotz> 20
[10:49] <tatertotz> wow even failed
[10:49] <tatertotz>  couldn't load list of Emergency Numbers: 'Failed to parse CRSM query result '+CRSM: 105,129'
[10:50] <tatertotz> zetheroo: in my country emergency numbers are required by FCC, a device like that has to receive 911/e911
[10:53] <tatertotz> zetheroo: it's not being blocked in any way is it?
[10:53] <zetheroo> by?
[10:53] <tatertotz> rfkill
[10:53] <zetheroo> no idea
[10:54] <tatertotz> sudo rfkill list
[10:54] <tatertotz> it's not good to see "yes" anywhere
[10:55] <zetheroo> 1: tpacpi_wwan_sw: Wireless WAN
[10:55] <zetheroo> 	Soft blocked: yes
[10:55] <zetheroo> 	Hard blocked: no
[10:55] <tatertotz> oh its just blocked...that's all
[10:55] <apw> according to both the focal and groovy versions of modem-manager, that CRSM query result is malformed
[10:55] <tatertotz> zetheroo: unblock it
[10:56] <zetheroo> why is it blocked? I didn't do that ... how to unblock?
[10:56] <apw> it should have the form +CRSM: nnn,nnn,<hex>
[10:56] <tatertotz> zetheroo: you should unblock it then try again
[10:56] <apw> so i assume it is just being reported more in groovy; rather than a symptom
[10:57] <zetheroo> I don't know if this was the right thing to do
[10:57] <zetheroo> eb@eb-T420:~$ mmcli -m 0 -e
[10:57] <zetheroo> successfully enabled the modem
[10:57] <apw> did the soft-block change in rfkill
[10:57] <tatertotz> zetheroo: did you get it unblocked?
[10:57] <zetheroo> nope :(
[10:57] <zetheroo> 	Soft blocked: yes
[10:57] <tatertotz> zetheroo: you'll need it to show all "no"
[10:58] <apw> unblock it with rfkill itself
[10:58] <apw> if that works, you can try and figure out who thinks it should block it later
[10:59] <tatertotz> zetheroo: sudo rfkill unblock all
[10:59] <tatertotz> zetheroo: then check if it still shows blocked
[10:59] <zetheroo> 	Soft blocked: no
[10:59] <tatertotz> zetheroo: now try again
[10:59] <zetheroo> should I restart the ModemManager service?
[10:59] <tatertotz> zetheroo: you can if you want, it won't hurt
[11:00] <zetheroo> ok
[11:01] <apw> MBIM support is new in 1.14 so that might be related if this does not work
[11:01] <zetheroo> seems the same https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/DtmbmYDHSq/
[11:03] <zetheroo> Mobile Broadband in Network Manager says Not Available
[11:04] <tatertotz>  MBIM device wasn't explicitly closed
[11:04] <tatertotz> zetheroo: unplug and replug and try again
[11:04] <zetheroo> unplug what?
[11:04] <apw> well i think this modem is using AT commands in bionic, and attempting to MBIM in groovy; perhaps the MBIM support is broken
[11:04] <apw> in the device
[11:05] <zetheroo> should I reboot?
[11:05] <zetheroo> :P
[11:05] <tatertotz> zetheroo: maybe reboot
[11:05] <zetheroo> ok
[11:05] <zetheroo> bbs
[11:07] <zetheroo> 	Soft blocked: yes
[11:07] <zetheroo> it's blocked again after a reboot
[11:07] <tatertotz> unblock and test
[11:07] <zetheroo> unblocked
[11:08] <zetheroo> but how to test exactly?
[11:08] <zetheroo> nothing seems different in the network manager
[11:08] <tatertotz> zetheroo: journalctl -b 0 -n 200|nc termbin.com 9999
[11:10] <zetheroo> after restarting network-manger the device is blocked again
[11:10] <zetheroo> so seems like network-manager is blobking it
[11:10] <zetheroo> blocking*
[11:11] <tatertotz> file a bug report then, not much else you're going to be able to do
[11:13] <zetheroo> This is the full output after restarting ModemManager https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/N2cgFsb5pP/
[11:13] <tatertotz> file a bug report then, not much else you're going to be able to do
[11:15] <apw> that fuller log from when it works might tell one if it is MBIM brokenness on the modem or in the kernel driver
[11:17] <apw> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/modemmanager/+bug/1169117
[11:18] <apw> that very anchient but talks about how you might convince the kernel to use AT commands rather than MBIM; that might be informative, it also might not
[11:18] <zetheroo> maybe I can just boot Ubuntu 18.04 from USB  on this laptop and use the LIVE Session to get the logs of it while its working
[11:19] <zetheroo> then I would not have to crack open both laptops again
[11:42] <Duality> Is there a way to install the linaro gcc through the package manager? does anyone know?
[11:49] <zetheroo1> ok so I have it working in Ubuntu 18.04
[11:54] <zetheroo1> I have the output here https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/hJSv9b3Jrv/
[11:57] <zetheroo1> and this is with kernel 5.4.0.42
[11:58] <him-cesjf_> Is there a loginctl/systemctl like command to turn off screen?
[11:59] <tatertotz> most LCD "screens" have a power button to turn them "off"
[12:00] <him-cesjf_> tatertotz:  Most "laptops" don't have a power button to turn them "off"
[12:01] <mra90> how can I ask ping to show the connection proxy server and other connection details
[12:01] <mra90> my proxy server has changed, I have exported them in the local bash session but it looks like ping doesn't care about it and still use some others
[12:01] <mra90> even though echo $proxy_server shows correct ones
[12:02] <tatertotz> then you might articulate that you have ubuntu on a "laptop" but don't want the screen to be on
[12:03] <tatertotz> (they can be set to turn off or dim screen after given amount of time passes)
[12:03] <khurram> hi all
[12:04] <khurram> i want to get REQUEST & RESPONSE from nginx before  RESPONSE is sent back , need help can anyone please throw light if this can be done and what could be the easiest way to achieve it
[12:06] <him-cesjf_> tatertotz:  My question was clear enough to understand that I was looking for a `command` irrespective of whether my system is a desktop/laptop/mobile. Try avoiding answering in quotes if you want to help. I find it rude. I found the answer anyway - `xset dpms force off`.
[12:22] <tatertotz> +1 for self sufficiency
[12:22] <him-cesjf_> lol
[12:28] <mra90> how to force ping to show where it connects top
[12:28] <mra90> to*
[12:28] <mra90> I mean I use proxy server but it doesn't show it
[12:29] <mra90> and of course 100% failes packets
[12:29] <mra90> because of that
[12:29] <mra90> so I want to see what proxy server it sues
[12:29] <Doc-Saintly> Any advise on how to get an integrated web cam working under Ubuntu? It's a lenovo laptop and lspci / lsusb / lshw don't seem to show anything that looks like a webcam to me.
[12:29] <Doc-Saintly> Any advice on how to get an integrated web cam working under Ubuntu? It's a lenovo laptop and lspci / lsusb / lshw don't seem to show anything that looks like a webcam to me.
[12:30] <tatertotz> mra90: do you know any details on the proxy you use?, it's hostname, ip, and what port?
[12:30] <mra90> sure I do
[12:30] <mra90> just want to print that in ping
[12:31] <mra90> wheree this tool is connecting to
[12:32] <tatertotz> mra90: ping command syntax, the IP/name that is to be pinged is provided to the command,
[12:32] <mra90> yes but it doesn't show the proxy it uses
[12:32] <tatertotz> meaning if you ping x.x.x.x it's not going to show that you pinged y.y.y.u
[12:33] <mra90> base on this https://superuser.com/questions/175428/how-to-ping-when-behind-a-proxy
[12:33] <mra90> it looks liek we can not ping when behind the proxy
[12:34] <mra90> ok so wwhere should I change system proxy setting on ubuntu?
[12:34] <tatertotz> you might need to admit what the real problem you thought you'd trouble shoot by ping
[12:36] <mra90> the real problem is no internet at all
[12:36] <mra90> so I was changing the proxy setting in local bash session and pinging for test
[12:36] <mra90> but it always fails
[12:37] <mra90> due to ping not using proxy I guess
[12:37] <tatertotz> mra90: you are chatting from the computer with connectivity problem right now? or chatting from another computer?
[12:37] <mra90>  /etc/environment - is it global/system proxy setting place
[12:37] <mra90> tatertotz of course differerent
[12:38] <multifractal> Within my monero wallet I have 2 accounts A and B. I need to send someone a payment of X coins, but each of these accounts holds less than X coins. But together they add up to more than X coins. My question: can I send the contents of account A to account B (by selecting account A, going to the send panel in the GUI, and inputting the address of account B, and sending the entire contents), so that all the coins are consolidated into
[12:38] <multifractal> account B? Then I have enough to make the payment of X to my friend.
[12:38] <multifractal> oh whoops sorry wrong channel
[12:39] <tatertotz> mra90: if you have access to the problematic computer right now, do you have any way of transferring trouble shooting info or logs to the computer you are chatting from?...like a working USB flash drive ?
[12:40] <mra90> tatertotz: sure but what logs/info wwould you like to see?
[12:42] <tatertotz> mra90: the info used to trouble shoot connectivity is of interests, you may have to get through this with self sufficiency if you're concerned about that information
[12:43] <mra90> where does ubuntu set system proxy?
[12:43] <mra90> what a shit is it
[12:43] <mra90> I have changed /env/envinroment settings but still doesn't work
[12:46] <tatertotz> mra90: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Proxy   /etc/environment is mentioned
[12:48] <tatertotz> mra90: all is working without proxy? have you verified proxy is in production and operating as expected?
[12:49] <mra90> how can it work without proxy?
[12:49] <mra90> the whole point of proxy is provide the brige oterwise your reequest won't go outside
[12:50] <tatertotz> hmmm interesting, so you're in a non home/home office networking environment? the majority of home users do NOT need a proxy to use their internet service
[12:51] <tatertotz> heck even commercial environments exists that don't use a proxy
[12:52] <tatertotz> have you contacted the IT or responsible party for your environment?....you probably should
[12:52] <tatertotz> actually you REALLY should
[12:54] <tatertotz> and if your IT doesn't support your Linux...you need to think about what impact that will have on your productivity.....you might need to sleep on it
[12:55] <tatertotz> mra90: are you able to confirm you're not in the home/homeoffice/consumer environment?
[12:59] <uzee> I've asked this in #ubuntu-server also, but thought to try my luck here too
[13:00] <uzee>  I cloned a Ubuntu 18.04.4 VM in VMware but all the clones have the hostname as the source VM. We register hostnames with mac addresses and the VM picks up the IP and hostname from DNS/DHCP, but for this cloning case, it does not seem to work
[13:00] <uzee> ESXi 6.5
[13:00] <uzee> I've tried seting 'localhost' in /etc/hostname and commenting out the 127.0.1.1 line in /etc/hosts but now the hostname says 'localhost'
[13:00] <uzee> I don't have any cloud stuff as mentioned in a number of posts online
[13:00] <lotuspsychje> uzee: please try avoid crossposting
[13:01] <uzee> lotuspsycheje: Sorry, I thought since both channels also have quite a few participants different, so it might be helpful
[13:01] <uzee> If its considered wrong, sorry, my bad
[13:02] <tatertotz> uzee: i would expect a 1:1 clone to have same information as original, that doesn't seem odd at all
[13:11] <zetheroo> how does one report an Ubuntu bug?
[13:11] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo: ubuntu-bug packagename
[13:12] <zetheroo> and if there is no package name or it's unknown?
[13:12] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo: before filing the bug, please first ask here, you never know volunteers know a dupe already or have the solution
[13:12] <zetheroo> lotuspsychje: I have been asking about the problem and people have tried to help
[13:14] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo: whats your bug about?
[13:16] <zetheroo> the em7345 device
[13:16] <zetheroo> works in 18.04 but not in 20.04
[13:17] <zetheroo> I have been posting pastebins of info from it working and not working here
[13:17] <zetheroo> I have to run, but will be back in about 30min
[13:17] <tatertotz> uzee: my bad if you were informed your issue is out of scope or off topic for here...i cannot see those communications
[13:19] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo: pastebin your dmesg please
[13:21] <uzee> tatertotz: thanks and no worries, lotuspsychje said that it shouldn't be cross-posted as I had asked the same in #ubuntu-server. Thanks for your comment. You're right that the clone is and should be identical, but in our case it doesn't take the hostname provided by dhcp
[13:57] <Carnal> Hi! I am running Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS on LXC. I am getting setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, 65535) failed (1: Operation not permitted)
[13:57] <Carnal> Any idea's?
[13:58] <Carnal> My DNS and web server is down
[13:58] <Carnal> I also use VestaCP
[13:59] <Examknow> Carnal: Where are you seeing this error?
[14:00] <zetheroo>  lotuspsychje: sorry, I am back now.
[14:01] <zetheroo>  lotuspsychje: dmesg from 20.04?
[14:01] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo: version not working
[14:02] <zetheroo1> lotuspsychje:  https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/WmrNKnmG3k/
[14:06] <Carnal> okay so
[14:06] <Carnal> update
[14:06] <Carnal> http works
[14:06] <Carnal> https doesn't
[14:06] <Carnal> DNS does work
[14:06] <Carnal>  /var/log/nginx/error.log btw
[14:06] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo1: you have a switch to enable or disable the modem?
[14:09] <zetheroo1>  lotuspsychje: like a physical switch?
[14:09] <zetheroo1> not that I can see
[14:09] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo1: or a Fn+ F combo
[14:09] <zetheroo1> hmmm
[14:11] <zetheroo1> lotuspsychje: F8 ... but that switched off my WiFi (I guess it's a switch for all wireless devices)
[14:11] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo1: try this please, journalctl -f and switch off/back in your wireless and pastebin all the output
[14:14] <zetheroo1>  lotuspsychje:   https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/sQX5GsCzfh/
[14:14] <zetheroo1> hey, wait a sec
[14:14] <zetheroo1> something is different now ...
[14:15] <zetheroo1> hey, it's working!!!
[14:16] <geosmile> on my ubuntu 20.04LTS - dpkg --list | grep nvidia shows this -> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/6FJNVwVDxy - why do i see two versions of nvidia drivers? How do I clean this up?
[14:16] <zetheroo1> Wow ... so it was just switched off with the F8 button!?
[14:16] <zetheroo1> strange though that WiFi and BT were on
[14:16] <lotuspsychje> zetheroo1: maybe some glitch
[14:17] <zetheroo1>  lotuspsychje: yeah, I wonder if it will work after a reboot ... only one way to know ... bbs
[14:18] <lotuspsychje> geosmile: did you add external ppa's to your system?
[14:22] <zetheroo>  lotuspsychje: it's still working after a reboot
[14:22] <FrankyGov> heya
[14:22] <lotuspsychje> lovely zetheroo
[14:23] <zetheroo>  lotuspsychje: thanks so much - I cannot believe the solution was that bloody simple :P
[14:23] <FrankyGov> Dear all
[14:23] <FrankyGov> I wanted to install some android apps on Linux. Do you know any app in this regard?
[14:31] <nikolam> I got this in my dmesg, after I had sort of screen freeze and coming back after switching to F1 console and back to F7:  https://pastebin.com/c64ZdVS5
[14:43] <mefistofeles> hey
[14:44] <mefistofeles> trying to get the package I need to install for boost libs in ubuntu 16.04, is there a single package/metapackage or do I need to install many of them individually?
[14:44] <geosmile> lotuspsychje, i did graphicsppa
[14:44] <lotuspsychje> geosmile: thats why several versions are available to your system, cause ubuntu has built-in drivers for nvidia aswell
[14:45] <lotuspsychje> geosmile: ubuntu-drivers list, to see wich versions are available for your card
[14:47] <lotuspsychje> mefistofeles: to search packages on your ubuntu release: apt-cache search keyword
[14:48] <mefistofeles> lotuspsychje: yeah, I know that, I see a lot of boost packages, I was wondering if there's a single package or metapackage for all of them
[14:49] <lotuspsychje> mefistofeles: can you elaborate more about your endgoal, what are you trying to get working? volunteers can think along with you
[14:49] <mefistofeles> lotuspsychje: I want to set up an ubuntu containr for a specific application that needs boost libs to compile
[14:49] <mefistofeles> *container
[14:50] <mefistofeles> and it needs/recommends an older glibc version, that's why I'm using 16.04
[14:50] <lotuspsychje> mefistofeles: well apt is pretty smart, if you install something it will pull depends anyway
[14:51] <lotuspsychje> or you got several libs?
[14:51] <Sven_vB> hi! in focal, syslog is cluttered by entries from network interface p2p-dev-wlp*, which I don't use anyway, I only use AP-based wifi. is there a way to disable it?
[14:51] <mefistofeles> lotuspsychje: I need boost libs, probably not all of them but they don't specify how many, so I want to go to the safe side and install them all
[14:52] <mefistofeles> and then build/compile the package
[14:52] <lotuspsychje> mefistofeles: the guide you follow must specify wich libs its about no?
[14:53] <mefistofeles> lotuspsychje: not really, it just say "boost", http://vina.scripps.edu/manual.html#installation
[14:54] <mefistofeles> the thing is that not all distros separate the boost libs as ubuntu does
[14:54] <mefistofeles> so it's probably thinking about those cases
[14:55] <amazoniantoad> Can someone help me with my xen hypervisor installation on Ubuntu 20.04.1? I tried to boot into it but all it says is "panic on cpu 0" and "timer doesn't work!" and then reboots
[15:10] <lotuspsychje> mefistofeles: maybe this? libboost-dev - Boost C++ Libraries development files (default version)
[15:17] <mefistofeles> lotuspsychje: yeah, those would be the header files but not the libs objects... though I does suggests the libs objects, how do I make apt to install the suggested packages again?
[15:21] <mefistofeles> ah --install-suggests :)
[15:25] <lotuspsychje> mefistofeles: https://github.com/skodapetr/autodock-vina git forwards to boost 1.67 so it seems here
[15:26] <mefistofeles> lotuspsychje: I see, though it's not exactly autodock-vina but a modified version of it that I'm trying
[15:26] <lotuspsychje> ah right
[15:27] <mefistofeles> we'll see, I think I already have my container file set up
[15:27] <mefistofeles> lotuspsychje: thanks for the help
[15:27] <lotuspsychje> mefistofeles: seems there's a version on the repos too
[15:28] <lotuspsychje> !info autodock-vina
[15:29] <lotuspsychje> mefistofeles: and seems like it wants to pull: libboost-program-options1.71.0
[15:31] <mefistofeles> https://packages.ubuntu.com/eoan/autodock-vina I see also system and thread
[15:31] <mefistofeles> but yeah, then those 3 should be enough
[15:38] <mra90> how to check what are system proxy settings? For example http_proxy?
[15:45] <ses1984> i have a system and im not sure if it's stable, is there a stress test i can set up from the live usb, including stressing the gpy
[15:45] <ses1984> gpu*
[15:51] <lotuspsychje> ses1984: to see system errors in realtime: journalctl -f
[15:52] <ses1984> lotuspsychje: i actually haven't see any errors in logs related to the instability. the system either freezes, reboots, and also sometimes fails to post
[15:53] <Examknow> ses1984: I don't know that there's any way to test the gpu from an ubuntu live usb/cd, but there is some software you can run on the OS itself.
[15:53] <ses1984> over the last few years i would get POST failures sometimes, but that was pretty much it, suddenly in the last month the POST failures became much more frequent and that's when it started freezing/rebooting sometimes
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> ses1984: if your system acts weird, there should be something logging somewhere
[15:54] <Examknow> ^
[15:54] <Examknow> ses1984: Do you think the problem is only with your GPU?
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> ses1984: so try to pastebin us your dmesg after boot, or an output of your realtime journal
[15:55] <ses1984> i ran furmark in windows for a few hours and there were no problems, i ran memtest overnight twice and there were no problems. i also recently replaced the cpu and motherboard so the only thing left really is the PSU?
[15:55] <ses1984> it's relatively high end, seasonic focus plus gold 650, and it's rarely ever been stressed hard
[15:56] <ses1984> i'm booted into a live usb environment now, i can probably find the logs from the last crash
[15:56] <Examknow> If you can, please paste them here.
[15:58] <ses1984> is the info in dmesg from the last boot stored on the file system anywhere
[15:59] <lotuspsychje> ses1984: current dmesg could also hold useful info
[15:59] <Rapture> I'm running a standard Ubuntu 16 EC2 instance on AWS and my aot-get autoremove isn't removing the linux-headers. I've tried clean, --purge, and some other flags but nothing seems to clean them up. Any suggestions?
[15:59] <Examknow> ses1984: /var/log/dmesg is where the current one is
[16:00] <Examknow> Rapture: Do you mean apt-get?
[16:00] <Rapture> oops yeah
[16:00] <Examknow> Hmm
[16:00] <Examknow> Rapture: What is the output when you run autoremove?
[16:00] <Rapture> yeah...I can't figure out why. It's about 20-ish headers taking up ~2gb space
[16:00] <Rapture> ```0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 79 not upgraded.```
[16:01] <ses1984> termbin.com/vx9b current dmesg
[16:01] <mefistofeles> Rapture: so it seems that they are required for something or that you may have installed them manually
[16:01] <mefistofeles> I believe
[16:01] <Examknow> Yeah did you install them via apt-get?
[16:02] <Rapture> mefistofeles - def not manually installed (at least by a human) - This is an AWS EC2 instances managed via chef.
[16:03] <BluesKaj> Rapture, sudo apt-get remove --purge 2.6.24-25-* (example)
[16:03] <ses1984> termbin.com/e5jcm -- last kern.log -- looks interesting
[16:05] <ses1984> authentication error, process crashed, x11 connection broke, fatal io error, there's something here
[16:07] <Examknow> The thing that stands out to me is: Jun 30 08:17:32 stachurski-desktop at-spi-bus-launcher[21282]: XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0"
[16:07] <lotuspsychje> ses1984: your current dmesg seems pretty sane to me, just a few kvm: disabled by bios
[16:07] <ses1984> the system is stable in the live usb so far, no stress tho. and stable in windows under a stress test. i think my current hypothesis is that my ubuntu install doesnt like my new hardware or the old bad hardware trashed the install somehow
[16:08] <Examknow> What ubuntu version?
[16:08] <ses1984> 18.04.5
[16:08] <lotuspsychje> ses1984: well Ryzen might need some kernel dances
[16:09] <ses1984> i can just do a clean install and see what happens
[16:09] <Examknow> Maybe try that
[16:11] <Rapture> anybody use purge-old-kernels? That seems to have found and removed a bunch
[16:12] <Rapture> even though I'm on ubuntu 16
[16:25] <kemot> I want to connect to my home server using SSH and a non standard port. At the moment I do: ssh user@192.168.1.x -p 12345. But it puts me to a default location and I have to cd .. out of it. I want to get to: 192.168.1.x:/share/files -p 12345
[16:25] <kemot> but that does not work
[16:25] <kemot> any ideas?
[16:32] <leftyfb> kemot: change your home directory to /share/files
[16:33] <pavlos> kemot: LC_CDPATH=/share/files ssh -o SendEnv=LC_CDPATH user@server -p 12345
[16:35] <leftyfb> kemot: what's the purpose of this?
[16:36] <kemot> the purpose is to login to my qnap straight to a desired location instead of having to log in and them move around
[16:36] <kemot> not sure if tha can be done with qnap?
[16:37] <leftyfb> kemot: as pavlos pointed out ... here's some more info https://serverfault.com/a/880238
[16:39] <kemot> will do thanks guys. I'm not very advanced with linux but I like to dig into it sometimes :)
[16:52] <pavlos> kemot: here's another way ... ssh user@server -p 12345 -t "cd /share/files; bash --login"
[16:57] <kemot> wow that works great @pavlos
[16:57] <kemot> now I will just make a short alias for that command :)
[17:06] <bostongeek36> is there a version of xubuntu for the raspberry pi 3?
[17:10] <pavlos> kemot: alias myssh="      ssh user@server -t 'cd /share/files; bash --login'       "
[17:19] <ComputerTech> um
[17:19] <ComputerTech> sorry for my silly questions
[17:19] <ComputerTech> but what is the command to list all ips on a vps?
[17:22] <leftyfb> ComputerTech: ip a
[17:22] <ComputerTech> thank you :)
[17:22] <ComputerTech> and am i right about this
[17:22] <ComputerTech> each ip has it's own ports, e.g 6667
[17:22] <ComputerTech> is this correct?
[17:23] <leftyfb> ComputerTech: what exactly are you trying to accomplish?
[17:23] <ComputerTech> to run 2 ircds on one server
[17:23] <ComputerTech> with both ircds having port 6667 for each
[17:24] <gildarts> Don't think you can do that. Can't have two processing binding the same port, iirc.
[17:24] <leftyfb> ComputerTech: you can't unless your server has the ability to host 2 different public ip's from your VPS provider
[17:25] <leftyfb> ComputerTech: why do you need to run 2 of your IRC servers?
[17:25] <TenCate> Is it possible that both lxd and virtualbox can mess up an intel wireless card to the point of losing internet and unclean reboot? this has happened to me both on 18.04 and 20.04
[17:26] <TenCate> LXD was intalled with snap, and virtualbox with apt.
[17:27] <TenCate> And I mean, this happens when either of them is installed, not necessarily simultaneously.
[17:27] <ComputerTech> hmm i have actually done that on a other server
[17:27] <leftyfb> TenCate: no, since I have both of those installed on my laptop
[17:27] <leftyfb> ComputerTech: no you haven't since it's not possible
[17:27] <TenCate> after remove purge, problem goes away.
[17:28] <ComputerTech> i will ask unrealircd support
[17:29] <TenCate> leftyfb, maybe we don't have the exact same hardware.
[17:47] <MzR_Massey> Good afternoon everyone
[17:48] <ComputerTech> Afternoon :)
[17:50] <MzR_Massey> Good afternoon ComputerTech! I am working on trying to mount 2 drives on a dedicated server, and I'm not sure what's the best way to add them for the mount (so they're available for FTP access)
[17:50] <ComputerTech> :)
[17:51] <MzR_Massey> currently working with Ubuntu 16.04.7
[17:54] <conr> does anybody use a mac desktop/laptop and vnc into their 20.04 ubuntu deskop/server at home for nas/plex/etc reliability?
[17:57] <conr> i enjoy using macOS and ubuntu desktops but don't want to have hardwired connections to both.
[17:58] <lotuspsychje> conr: are those machines connected to the internet?
[18:00] <gebbione> is there any way to improve nfs/afp/smb connectivity in ubuntu? I experience so many troubles with the default nautilus experience. List on certain shares returns empty when the folder is clearly full of files, smb is unable to authenticate regardless of the namespace/user/pass etc
[18:03] <gebbione> run another refresh on a folder using afp and finally displaying :/ not sure what happens sometimes
[18:07] <leftyfb> conr: look into synergy (requires a monitor on both)
[18:10] <conr> lotuspsychje: yes but ubuntu is behind vpn
[18:11] <dtux> i'm trying to mount an NFS (v3) export from my server. the server exports /export (without insecure) and /export/the_dir_i_want (with insecure), and I am getting "mount request refused... illegal port". isn't the insecure option supposed to avoid that?
[18:13] <blaster> How do I find the right name for a service when using systemctl restart?
[18:15] <sarnold> blaster: systemctl list-units is handy
[18:16] <lotuspsychje> blaster: or if you like GUI, stacer from the 20.04 repos
[18:16] <blaster> awesom thnaks
[18:19] <pavlos> dtux: mount with nfsvers=3 ...     server:/path   /mount/point   nfs   nfsvers=3   0 0
[18:22] <Sven_vB> in focal, how can I prioritize or restrict which of logged in users may run pulseaudio? because it seems my bluetooth headphones are by default grabbed by the wrong session's PA.
[18:23] <Sven_vB> ör at least which may load module-bluez5-device
[18:28] <dtux> pavlos: i'm trying with nautilus... v4 isn't supported yet, so it's definitely trying v3 afaik
[18:40] <pavlos> dtux: can you add the share in /etc/fstab and see if Nautilus sees it?
[19:02] <mra90> how can I check system proxy settings?
[19:02] <EriC^^> mra90: system settings > network probably
[19:04] <mra90> EriC^^, from a command line?
[19:04] <mra90> where they are stored?
[19:07] <EriC^^> mra90: in the system settings of your DE, which DE do you use?
[19:07] <mra90> DE?
[19:07] <mra90> Ubuntu 16.04
[19:08] <EriC^^> mra90: in the dash type 'network' and click on it
[19:08] <EriC^^> or system settings > network
[19:09] <mra90> the strange thing is I don;t have settings -> network on this machine
[19:09] <mra90> this is ubuntu virtual image
[19:10] <EriC^^> no network in the dash?
[19:10] <EriC^^> mra90: this does it for me "unity-control-center network" in the terminal
[19:11] <mra90> EriC^^, yes it opens settings but no network tab
[19:12] <EriC^^> mra90: anything interesting in the system settings?
[19:14] <mra90> nothing related
[19:14] <mra90> just hardaware stuff like devices etc
[19:15] <mra90> nothing for network
[19:15] <mra90> I can browse the net only if in the firefox I fill mnaual proxy settrings
[19:15] <mra90> otherwise it does not work with system settings
[20:03] <Sbur3> Anyone wanna tell me if Gforce GTX 1050 is a good video card or not?
[20:05] <tatertotz> there's a #hardware chat room
[20:05] <tatertotz> Sbur3: i wouldn't imagine a video card alone is ubuntu related
[20:06] <LambdaComplex> i suppose asking "will this card work fine with ubuntu?" is a reasonable question
[20:07] <LambdaComplex> (but that's a super new nvidia card so i'm guessing the answer is "yeah it works perfectly")
[20:08] <Sbur3> nick:tatertotz I know that. I have a GT210. I was just interested to know ... on #hardware, they mentioned the difference of compatibility between 210 and 1050.. I was interested experiençe
[20:09] <Sbur3> nvidia is still good at making video cards?
[20:12] <oncall-pokemon> yep
[20:14] <Conjecture_> Has 32bit support been discontinued on 20.04?
[20:18] <sarnold> Conjecture_: armhf is still available as a host in 20.04, but i386 as host was dropped https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes
[20:18] <Conjecture_> Oh, thanks
[20:26] <tommy``> can i do on crontab something like that: "@reboot python3 -m /home/user/cloudbot/cloudbot" ?
[20:30] <EriC^^> tommy``: yeah
[20:31] <tommy``> EriC^^: i have to do that as root?
[20:31] <EriC^^> no, you can do it as the user
[20:32] <Sven_vB> how do I check if a given username oder uid is a system user?
[20:32] <Sven_vB> *or
[20:33] <tommy``> that means that every reboot it launch the script right? But it get launched after or before login to desktop?
[20:33] <EriC^^> before tommy``
[20:33] <EriC^^> Sven_vB: by system user you mean in the sudo group?
[20:34] <tommy``> so maybe couldn't work because internet no working, EriC^^
[20:34] <EriC^^> tommy``: you could add the program to the startup apps program
[20:34] <EriC^^> it would start after logging in
[20:34] <tommy``> ah, how?
[20:35] <Sven_vB> EriC^^, nope, more like whether I can expect programs to treat that account as non-human.
[20:35] <tributarian> Does anyone know where the repo is for cloud-images? I think I found a bug with the vagrant images, but I want to make sure.
[20:35] <EriC^^> there should be a program called 'startup applications' somewhere in your DE programs menu
[20:35] <EriC^^> tommy``: ^
[20:36] <Sven_vB> EriC^^, I had some vague recollection that userids up to 999 were reserved for daemons, maintenance and such
[20:36] <tommy``> checking now
[20:37] <EriC^^> right Sven_vB
[20:38] <Sven_vB> found it, grep _SYSTEM_UID /etc/adduser.conf¶ FIRST_SYSTEM_UID=100¶ LAST_SYSTEM_UID=999
[20:41] <Sven_vB> so now I have to find a way to teach focal's pulseaudio to not auto-start for system users. I could add a drop-in to /etc/systemd/user/default.target.wants/pulseaudio.service with a condition, but which? man 5 systemd.unit explicitly warns that ConditionUser= is not useful for system services.
[20:42] <Sven_vB> oh maybe that means just "systems in the system.slice"
[20:42] <Sven_vB> *services in
[21:03] <Sven_vB> I think I solved it. :)
[21:10] <jeffrey_f> Trying to clear a windows password.  Need to mount the windows drive as read/write. It only allows read only.
[21:11] <sarnold> jeffrey_f: I think one common cause of that problem is that hte windows machine that it was one didn't shut down, so the filesystem isn't in a consistent state
[21:12] <sarnold> jeffrey_f: on windows these days 'shutdown' is more like a 'suspend', there's some way to turn that off; I think using the windows 'restart' option does that too, just once, which might be more convenient
[21:13] <jeffrey_f> hggdh: sarnold.  So, restart?
[21:15] <sarnold> jeffrey_f: it's worth a try, anyway
[21:16] <arooni> having trouble pairing a bluetooth keyboard on ubuntu 20.04
[21:17] <arooni> https://gist.github.com/6ba1768ae451836808d9580d15924444
[21:17] <sarnold> arooni: wild guess, try running it without sudo?
[21:19] <arooni> same error :(
[21:21] <sarnold> arooni: dang :(
[21:22] <kamoricks> Hi, I'm trying to install software inside the docker image. I'm getting "Invalid cross-device link" when it's making backup links before installing new versions - is there a way to make these debs not do that, or do modify them such that they do `cp` instead of `ln`?
[21:25] <sarnold> kamoricks: I'm not particularly versed in docker but that sounds a bit like you're holding it the wrong way around
[21:33] <arooni> think i got it working via the command line; luckily there are many ways to do things on ubuntu
[21:33] <arooni>   / linux
[21:44] <arooni> now i'm constantly losing/regaining connection with the keyboard on ubuntu 20.04 :9
[21:48] <sarnold> heh :/
[21:52] <Doc-Saintly> Any advice on how to get an integrated webcam working when nothing shows up in lspci, lsusb, or lshw?
[21:54] <sarnold> try different cables, plug it into other ports, flip power switches when it's attached vs before it's attached,,
[21:55] <Doc-Saintly> actually, looking at dmesg I can see an AER on a pci device that's not being shown under LSPCI
[21:55] <sarnold> ohho
[22:01] <kamoricks> sarnold: Sure. The actual issue is that metacopy on overlayfs is causing / and modified files to exist on different filesystems, since they exist on different layers, but the deb packaging for the nvidia drivers is blissfully unaware of this so tries to hardlink packages for backup. Overriding the first doesnt' really work, since it's just a conflux of everything working as intended.
[22:04] <kamoricks> (you'd have a similar issue installing nvidia drivers on any system where / and /usr exist on different fses, but this isn't common enough for nvidia to care, I guess)
[22:06] <truexfan81> is there a single commmand i can type to make sure apt removes all nvidia packages? i'm switching to amd tomorrow  ubuntu 20.04
[22:13] <kinghat> if you are manually mounting a drive vs fstab, do you need to specify the disks file system?
[22:13] <kinghat> can you just sudo mount /dev/sdh1 /mnt/disk1/?
[22:13] <kinghat> even if the drive is NTFS?
[22:15] <truexfan81> as long as ntfs-3g is installed you mount it like any other drive, the kernel will figure out the rest
[22:15] <truexfan81> also i figured out that if you create a mount point for it in your home directory and mount it there, you get full rw privs so you don't have to sudo
[22:16] <kinghat> 🤔
[22:16] <truexfan81> i have 3 ntfs drives, and i have fstab auto mounting them to mount points in my home directory
[22:17] <truexfan81> correction 4
[22:18] <kinghat> $ mount /dev/sdh1 .temp-mount/
[22:18] <kinghat> mount: only root can do that
[22:18] <kinghat> ~$*
[22:19] <truexfan81> what i did was create directories with the same letter as the windows drive letter so C,E,F,H and so /home/user/C  etc works perfectly
[22:30] <Bocha> hi
[22:33] <conr> what chmod does a file need it to be so all members of the user group can delete the file?
[22:36] <Bocha> I'm here because I have a problem with ALSA and I wanted to know if someone can help me
[22:48] <sarnold> Bocha: irc works best with specific questions
[22:48] <sarnold> conr: deleting a file depends upon *directory* permissions
[22:49] <conr> sarnold: ok what are the dir perms needed?
[22:49] <sarnold> conr: read, write, and execute; eg 770, 775, etc
[22:50] <conr> which column is group? 1-2-3... 2?
[22:52] <sarnold> yes, it goes owner, group, other
[22:54] <conr> so 770 thanks!
