| henninb | hello, after installing lightdm on ubuntu 20.04 - when I try to login it returns to login screen, any advice? | 00:12 |
|---|---|---|
| guiverc | henninb, check you have free disk space, if insufficient free disk space in exists in $HOME (your user directory), login will fail causing you to logout | 00:13 |
| henninb | guiverc, 13% used on the root file system. | 00:14 |
| guiverc | space in $HOME is what matters, /home if partition seperately | 00:15 |
| henninb | guiverc, good point. my home is part of the root file system. | 00:15 |
| henninb | in the journalctl, i do see 'gkr-pam: unable to locate daemon control file' | 00:18 |
| henninb | ls | 00:31 |

| lapion | Okay I had to update-grub for the secondary partition | 01:10 |
| lapion | so first update the grub in the secondary partition then update the grub for the running system and then install the grub to the bootsector | 01:11 |
| Bashing-om | lapion: My experience dual booting 'buntus - you might consider disabling 30_os-prober ( /etc/grub.d/ ) in the secondary system to preclude recursion in grub's config file. | 01:18 |
| lapion | Bashing-om, the booted and the secondary where copies using dd and after the fact forgot to change the uuid in fstab so grub used the wrong uuid even though after the fact the uuid was changed on the ext4fs | 01:20 |
| Bashing-om | lapion: Still, you only want one system controlling booting per drive. | 01:22 |
| jayjo- | Is there a "recommended" way to run virtual machines on ubuntu today? In particular for running other linux machines (tails, kali, raspbian). I'm reading a lot about qemu. Do I need KVM to use it? Is this the right way to go? | 01:31 |
| lapion | Bashing-om, disabling that will only allow the secondary os to overwrite grub with a menu that cannot boot the primary | 01:43 |
| DouglasK | apt says I have "held broken packages", but when I run apt-mark showhold, I get no results... also dpkg -l | grep "^hi" gives nothing. Ideas on how to fix things? This is Ubuntu 18.04 | 01:54 |
| Bashing-om | DouglasK: Show us what you see, in a pastebin ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' - and we look for a PPA issue I bet :P | 01:56 |
| DouglasK | could well be ... one moment. | 01:57 |
| DouglasK | Bashing-om, https://pastebin.com/Jpwfhiwq | 02:01 |
| DouglasK | I included the requested, plus an apt-install that shows the error. | 02:03 |
| Bashing-om | DouglasK: Looking ^ . | 02:03 |
| Bashing-om | DouglasK: We can try - nut all bets are off - bionic install with "http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial InRelease". Ouch ! | 02:05 |
| DouglasK | Eh, it was set to ca.archive.ubuntu.com initially, but some recommended trying a different mirror. Changing seemed to make no difference. | 02:06 |
| Bashing-om | DouglasK: What does the system think is the release ' lsb_release -a ' ? | 02:07 |
| Bashing-om | !info libssl1.0.0 bionic | 02:07 |
| ubottu | libssl1.0.0 (source: openssl1.0): Secure Sockets Layer toolkit - shared libraries. In component main, is standard. Version 1.0.2n-1ubuntu5.3 (bionic), package size 1062 kB, installed size 3415 kB | 02:07 |
| DouglasK | It says Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS | 02:07 |
| DouglasK | I can pastebin the full ver if you like. | 02:08 |
| DouglasK | It also says "No LSB modules are available". | 02:08 |
| Bashing-om | 1.0.2n-1ubuntu5.1doNaw let's see what we can do . For sure do not want to mix the releases between xenial and bionic. | 02:09 |
| DouglasK | So, put the sources.list over to bionic? | 02:09 |
| Bashing-om | DouglasK: Yeah - like ' sudo sed -i 's/xenialy/bionic/g' /etc/apt/sources.list . then see what the package manager thinks. | 02:14 |
| Bashing-om | Typo! | 02:14 |
| DouglasK | No worries... I've backed the file up and will do it in vim | 02:15 |
| Bashing-om | DouglasK: ' sudo sed -i 's/xenial/bionic/g' /etc/apt/sources.list ' | 02:15 |
| DouglasK | Ok. 821 packages to upgrade. wow. | 02:18 |
| DouglasK | Ya, this'll be a while. | 02:18 |
| DouglasK | also, "0 not upgraded" is promising. | 02:18 |
| DouglasK | I'll bbiab. | 02:19 |

| TwoNotes | New 20.04 install sees one of my old disks (not the root disk) with the wrong UUID so will not mount it. | 03:11 |
| TwoNotes | Instead it sees it as the original (now removed) old root disk | 03:11 |
| Bashing-om | TwoNotes: review /etc/fstab and compare to ' sudo blkid -c /dev/null -o list ' for the correct UUIDs . | 03:13 |
| TwoNotes | Isn't the UUID stored on the disk itself? | 03:13 |
| Bashing-om | TwoNotes: Kernel reads the /etc/fstab file to mount the partitions. | 03:14 |
| TwoNotes | I know that. The question is how does it identify the disks. /dev/disks/by-uuid ? | 03:15 |
| TwoNotes | Before fixing fstab, I am trying various mount commands | 03:16 |
| TwoNotes | If I physically replace the new boot drive with the old one, IT properly sees the second disk. But the new boot disk does not. | 03:18 |
| TwoNotes | That blkid command sees this second disk as the original (now removed) boot disk. | 03:19 |
| TwoNotes | Perhaps if I disconnect the disk entirely and reboot, thinks will match up again | 03:20 |
| Bashing-om | TwoNotes: Humm ... ' sudo blkid -c /dev/null -o list ' <- The switch "-c /dev/null" ensures the command is not using any cached values and polls all of your hardware directly. The "-o list" switch is an option to order the output for easier reading. | 03:21 |
| DouglasK | Bashing-om, the system did finish the upgrade. Now to see if it reboots. | 03:24 |
| TwoNotes | The blkid command sees the UUID of this phantom disk to be the same as my old boot disk drive, which is physically removed and sitting on my deks here | 03:24 |
| TwoNotes | *desk | 03:25 |
| Bashing-om | TwoNotes: Got me - cached data ? where the -c option polls the hardware, does this show correctly ? | 03:26 |
| TwoNotes | Even with -c it is showing obsolete information about the disk. | 03:30 |
| Bashing-om | TwoNotes: That then is above my skill level. | 03:30 |
| TwoNotes | Perhaps shutting down, disconnect the disk, then reboot, will force the BIOS to update its idea of what is there | 03:31 |
| TwoNotes | Thanks anyway for the fancy blkid command. That is useful | 03:31 |
| Douglas_K | Bashing-om, a) it rebooted fine, and b) libssl-dev installed without issue. Thank you! Now I can go compile a current version of znc and get back on IRC with style. | 03:32 |
| Bashing-om | Douglas_K: \o/ - Good things can happen :P | 03:35 |
| Douglas_K | Absolutely! I work 3rd lvl support, I'm decent with Ubuntu, but it's not my forte. I truly appreciate the assist. | 03:37 |

I'm trying to use Packer to automate creating my vm templates in vsphere and the only way I've gotten it to work (and every example online shows) it using boot_commands and hosting a http server for the cloud-init.

| oerheks | 27c6:530c is not in the list. | 15:33 |

| jozefk | that thing didn't work though: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/HvR7npGgqQ/ | 18:01 |
| lotuspsychje | jozefk: do you have external ppa's added to your system? | 18:02 |
| jozefk | maybe if they got installed automatically somehow, like for Chrome, or Visual Studio Code. I don't know | 18:03 |
| jozefk | It could be that some where added when installing CUDA | 18:03 |
| jozefk | too | 18:03 |
| lotuspsychje | jozefk: unmet dependencys often arise when external ppa's fight with apt sources | 18:04 |
| jozefk | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/rpBvkV9swc/ | 18:05 |
| lotuspsychje | jozefk: i think the ubuntu drivers get mixed with your cuda repo | 18:07 |
| lotuspsychje | jozefk: we can only advice to get your system as vanilla possible here, clean the external repos and fix your sound issue first | 18:07 |
| jozefk | then later I will have another issue, to install cuda and get it working :) but maybe I can't have both, who knows :) | 18:08 |
| malpkt | ioria: it worked. thank you so much | 18:08 |
| lotuspsychje | jozefk: could you pastebin your dmesg plz? | 18:08 |
| lotuspsychje | malpkt: tnx for the feedback, interesting for us to know ioria oerheks | 18:09 |
| ioria | malpkt, good job | 18:09 |
| jozefk | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/sdxSQmDFJw/ | 18:10 |
| malpkt | ioria: i also found a PKGBUILD which automates this: libfprint-2-tod1-xps9300-bin | 18:11 |
| jozefk | by the way I use the sound from MoBo, not from GPU. anyway, maybe there is some conflict between them | 18:12 |
| lotuspsychje | jozefk: there seem to be some errors about sound indeed, nd_hda_intel 0000:0a:00.4: No response from codec, disabling MSI: last cmd=0x0043a03e | 18:15 |
| jozefk | that's something to do with the sound on MoBo. Maybe GPU drivers aren't affecting that? or what could be the cause? | 18:16 |
| lotuspsychje | jozefk: i would still try the driver switch, ive seen more users in the past with those fixed by driver switch | 18:17 |
| jozefk | in that case I must forget about cuda I think. coz it's not going to work if I have nvidia drivers installed first and I try to install cuda | 18:19 |
| ax562 | is there a way to check what version of intel firmware is loaded? | 18:20 |
| jozefk | https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205229 | 18:30 |
| ubottu | bugzilla.kernel.org bug 205229 in Sound(ALSA) "[Intel Ice Lake, snd-hda-intel, HDMI] "No response from codec" (after display hotplug?)" [Normal,Resolved: patch_already_available] | 18:30 |
| jozefk | that seems related to my problem. if that error from dmesg is a right track. I don't have Intel CPU though | 18:31 |
| tomreyn | jozefk: before you try anything else, fix the vmware network driver problem. | 18:45 |
| tomreyn | (i didn't follow your chat, just looked at your dmesg) | 18:45 |
| jozefk | tomreyn: could that affect the sound issue? | 18:47 |
| tomreyn | jozefk: it taints the kernel, and it triggers an oops, could affect the kernel in many ways. this doesn't have to affect sound, but can. | 18:49 |
| tomreyn | alternatively just don't load those modules tainting the kernel and see whether you can still reproduce the audio problem | 18:49 |
| jozefk | is that done by modifying the grub or how do I do it? | 18:50 |
| bumblefuzz | how do I disable ipv6 on ubuntu system-wide? | 19:03 |
| daoumilseitek | hi | 19:04 |
| daoumilseitek | i have to install an ubuntu 16.04 for work | 19:04 |
| daoumilseitek | towards the end of install it seems ubiquity is removing every single package, one by one | 19:04 |
| daoumilseitek | (and i don't even know where from − install or live) | 19:05 |
| daoumilseitek | looks like a bug | 19:05 |
| daoumilseitek | anyone run into similar bug | 19:05 |
| daoumilseitek | it takes very long | 19:05 |
| daoumilseitek | it's a virtualbox install (for now) of 16.04.7 desktop | 19:06 |
| ToTheInternet | hello. i set up ubuntu with a GUI on AWS EC2 following the official documentation: https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/ubuntu-desktop-aws#2-setting-up-tightvnc-on-aws I can connect to the instance but the resolution is tiny, and all the documentation about changing it talks about the "Activities" overview but i don't have that? how can i bring it up? | 19:14 |
| ToTheInternet | obv i don't usually use ubuntu so pls excuse the basic question. pressing my Windows key ("Super key") doesnt do anything | 19:14 |
| tomreyn | !blacklist | jozefk | 19:14 |
| ubottu | jozefk: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist.conf and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 19:14 |
| osse | ToTheInternet: do you see button in the lower left with 3 by 3 squares? | 19:15 |
| tomreyn | alternatively add modprobe.blacklist=MODULENAME to the kernel command line | 19:15 |
| bumblefuzz | so, I've disabled ipv6 using /etc/sysctl.conf but 'ip -6 addr' still shows an ipv6 address... why?? | 19:15 |
| ToTheInternet | osse: no. there is a button with a tool tip saying "Click here to hide all windows and show the desktop" | 19:16 |
| ToTheInternet | the button does exactly that | 19:16 |
| jozefk | tomreyn: I see I can blacklist modules with kmon too https://github.com/orhun/kmon#blacklisting-a-module | 19:16 |
| jozefk | just not sure how do I unblacklist them later :) | 19:17 |
| jozefk | Or maybe I should better fix the vmware network card driver issue instead | 19:17 |
| bumblefuzz | can someone explain how 'cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6' outputs 1 | 19:20 |
| bumblefuzz | and how 'ip -6 addr' outputs an ipv6 address? | 19:20 |
| ToTheInternet | osse: this is what the desktop looks like https://ibb.co/tbz1dB7 | 19:21 |
| techied | hey, I'm trying to enable livepatch on my server. I did `sudo snap install canonical-livepatch` which appears to have worked correctly (canonical-livepatch 9.5.5 from Canonical✓ installed) but when I run `sudo canonical-livepatch enable 820---` it just hangs until i ctrl+c | 19:21 |
| osse | ToTheInternet: very interesting. that looks like an older ubuntu | 19:22 |
| ToTheInternet | i think it's gnome maybe | 19:22 |
| ToTheInternet | i mean i did do: sudo apt install ubuntu-desktop | 19:22 |
| oerheks | techied, what is the use for `sudo canonical-livepatch enable 820---`??? | 19:23 |
| techied | what do you mean? | 19:23 |
| oerheks | installing the snap makes it start automaticly | 19:23 |
| techied | no, you need to enable it with the livepatch token according to https://auth.livepatch.canonical.com and https://ubuntu.com/security/livepatch | 19:23 |
| ToTheInternet | maybe i'm missing some packages that i need to install to get the "normal" ubuntu gui? | 19:23 |
| techied | i did it on another system (my laptop) and it worked fine with this method | 19:24 |
| oerheks | wait, 820--- is your token? | 19:26 |
| techied | well i redacted the rest | 19:26 |
| techied | it starts with 820 | 19:26 |
| oerheks | i see, i wondered about that number | 19:26 |
| techied | finally got a message back: `2020/09/16 21:26:20 error executing enable: cannot enable machine: bad temporary server status 500 (URL: https://livepatch.canonical.com/api/machine-tokens) server response: machine token already exists` | 19:27 |
| jozefk | I think I will try to install new VMWare Player version and see what happens | 19:29 |
| oerheks | check your ubuntu one account, i guess, to see if you can enable your server, maybe there are 3 attempts already? | 19:29 |
| bumblefuzz | does anyone know how I'm still getting an ipv6 address in ubuntu when I've "disabled" ipv6 via sysctl.conf? | 19:29 |
| oerheks | isn't sysctl the old way? you can disable ipv6 in your networkmanager easily. | 19:31 |
| jozefk | will be back after reboot and test | 19:31 |
| oerheks | sae would be in grub; GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="ipv6.disable=1" | 19:32 |
| techied | oerheks: thanks, turned out to be the machine's UUID; https://askubuntu.com/questions/1264961/ | 19:32 |
| bumblefuzz | sorry this is ubuntu server | 19:33 |
| bumblefuzz | I don't have a desktop | 19:33 |
| jozefk | after installing the new version of VMWare Player, and reboot, sound is back. I'm not sure now if that fixed the problem or it's just working randomly :) | 19:37 |
| jozefk | maybe the dmesg can tell? | 19:38 |
| jozefk | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/8vzF578DJG/ | 19:38 |
| TR2990WX | hi, right after the installation on my laptop I see a nice logo when the laptop startup. Then I installed a newer mainline kernel and the logo disappeared and the boot process show a few warnings/errors. Is there a way to bring back the nice logo ? | 19:39 |
| ToTheInternet | is there any way how i can bring up the thing that the Action key brings up? without using the Action key? | 19:41 |
| ToTheInternet | because its not working. i installed the ubuntu-desktop package on a fresh ubuntu 18 install | 19:41 |
| ToTheInternet | and pressing the windows key doesn't do anything. | 19:42 |
| daoumilseitek | FTR my bad ; it appears to be a normal part of install | 19:44 |
| ikonia | doesn't a fresh ubuntu 18 install come wuth ubuntu-desktop already installed ? | 19:46 |
| oerheks | ikonia, yes? | 19:49 |
| ikonia | so why would ToTheInternet need to install ubuntu-desktop package on a clean ubuntu '18' install | 19:49 |
| oerheks | bumhow did you control networking on your server? not worthy to mention in your 1st question? | 19:49 |
| oerheks | oh | 19:50 |
| oerheks | ikonia, no idea, some want to make it a trivia channel | 19:50 |
| shurdeek | I'm wondering what software is used to generate the images at https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/ . I need to use a modified image, as I want to use NFS root and the published images don't have the kernel module for my network card (RTL8111). I thought it uses vmbuilder but that's obsolete. | 20:24 |
| oerheks | shurdeek, all you need is the backport-iwlwifi-dkms package | 20:45 |
| oerheks | !info backport-iwlwifi-dkms | 20:45 |
| ubottu | backport-iwlwifi-dkms (source: backport-iwlwifi-dkms): iwlwifi driver backport in DKMS format. In component universe, is optional. Version 8324-0ubuntu3~20.04.1 (focal), package size 1530 kB, installed size 9804 kB | 20:45 |
| oerheks | for normal iso's one could use cubic, why would a cloud image need this wireless package? | 20:46 |
| jeremy31 | The RTL8111 should be supported by the r8169 kernel module in the Ubuntu kernels | 20:50 |
| shurdeek | thank you for the information, however, that doesn't really solve my problem | 20:51 |
| shurdeek | I boot the cloud images over PXE. | 20:51 |
| shurdeek | I could probably manually modify the image to add the module, but I want a clean solution rather than a hack. | 20:52 |
| oerheks | so, why can't you add that driver to the image? | 20:52 |
| shurdeek | I probably could, but I want a proper way to do that, instead of doing it manually. | 20:53 |
| shurdeek | I could mount the image, add the module, regenrate initramfs and save everything. But there has to be a more normal way to do this. | 20:54 |
| jeremy31 | The r8169 driver is part of linux-modules-extra, so that must not be part of the image | 20:54 |
| shurdeek | do you know if there is a more standardised approach than modifying the image manually? I can't find any documentation on how these images are created in the first place | 20:55 |
| shurdeek | they used to be created by vmbuilder, but that's now obsolete and I haven't found any info on what replaced it | 20:55 |
| shurdeek | hmm maybe if I used a different prebuilt kernel.... | 20:57 |
| arktvrvs | boon2 | 21:06 |
| abyssangel | hello | 21:23 |
| rr123 | was increasing confused by ubuntu dns, in NetworkManager I set manual DNS to a invalid address, turn interface off/on to make it take effect, systemd-resolve --status showed this DNS's IP(though unreachable), however I can still surf, nslookup reports it gets from 127.0.0.53, what the hack is that, and where does it got IP from? | 21:52 |
| rr123 | is i do: nslookup invalidwhatever.com, it says ""server cn't find invalidwhatever.com: NXDOMAIN", so it seems there is a local cache for all hostnames I have tried | 21:54 |
| rr123 | sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches does not help either | 21:54 |
| rr123 | systemd already made linux bad enough, ubuntu's netowrk changes made it even more difficult | 21:55 |
| leftyfb | rr123: use nm-connection-editor | 21:56 |
| xtao | 127.0.0.53 is systemd-resolved , and i believe it has a hardcoded fallback in the case of no DNS servers working where it goes to 1.1.1.1, 9.9.9.9, and 8.8.8.8 | 21:56 |
| leftyfb | and under "Method" pick "Automatic(DHCP) addresses only" | 21:56 |
| rr123 | xtao: i hate that hard-code thing, because of it i could not debug pihole | 21:57 |
| leftyfb | xtao: that is incorrect. 127.0.0.53 is pointing to localhost which runs a DNS caching daemon and then goes out to your configured DNS. There is no valid default namesever | 21:57 |
| leftyfb | rr123: setting a manual DNS entry in the NM for the latest Ubuntu versions doesn't do anything unless you also set the entire profile to manual | 21:58 |
| rr123 | i mean, let me just change /etc/resolv.conf and be done with it if I need override whatever is hidden, systemd/ubuntu wasted me half of day debugging while in the old days, it should take less then 5 seconds | 21:59 |
| rr123 | leftyfb: how to set the entire profile to manual | 21:59 |
| leftyfb | rr123: https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-configure-static-ip-address-on-ubuntu-18-10-cosmic-cuttlefish-linux | 22:00 |
| rr123 | all I want is to just manually designate a DNS, for god sake | 22:00 |
| leftyfb | rr123: I've given you 2 options | 22:00 |
| rr123 | sometimes i feel ubuntu is getting worse than windows, unnecessarily complex | 22:01 |
| leftyfb | rr123: this is a support channel. Please following along with troubleshooting. Keep all rants in #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:01 |
| leftyfb | rr123: and to clarify, the issues you're experiencing are with the Gnome project, not Ubuntu. | 22:02 |
| rr123 | leftyfb: in the half day I already tried those, does not work for me | 22:02 |
| xtao | well it's not incorrect is it. a process called systemd-resolved is listening on 127.0.0.53:53 as a stub resolver. you can see that with sudo fuser 53/udp and then sudo ls -l /proc/<pid>exe | 22:02 |
| leftyfb | xtao: yes, that is a caching daemon | 22:02 |
| rr123 | will systemd-resolve --flush-cache clean that caching daemon? | 22:03 |
| leftyfb | rr123: it doesn't cache which nameserver you have configured. It caches DNS queries | 22:04 |
| rr123 | nslookup google.com output first line is always 127.0.0.53, never saw anything with DNS server | 22:05 |
| rr123 | so it always goes to local cache first | 22:05 |
| leftyfb | yes | 22:06 |
| rr123 | which means my tcpdump port 53 can not catch anything? | 22:06 |
| rr123 | but i can see tcpdump port 53 on the gateway | 22:06 |
| rr123 | so I tried to change /etc/resolv.conf to 28.0.0.53 which is invalid, nslookup still happily reports right IP address, some hidden code somewhere still | 22:09 |
| rr123 | actually whatever is in /etc/resolv.conf does not matter, on the gateway tcpdump reports 28.0.0.53 is responding with DNS replies | 22:10 |
| rr123 | i delete /etc/resolv.conf that does stop nslookup | 22:12 |
| rr123 | the problem with systemd is that, if there is an issue, nobody knows how to debug and fix | 22:12 |
| sine0 | how do you get the version number of a software in apt-chace | 22:54 |
| sine0 | cache even | 22:54 |
| hggdh | sine0: apt-cache policy | 22:57 |
| Bashing-om | sine0: ?? 'apt-cache show <package>' shows the version. "apt-cache show mousepad >> Version: 0.4.2-1". Maybe I do not understand your intent ? | 22:59 |
| sine0 | show worked, thanks | 23:03 |
| Bashing-om | sine0: \o/ | 23:03 |
