[00:20] <robertparkerx> is there a way to prevent a specific file from being created from a specific path ?

[00:21] <robertparkerx> - /opt/lampp/mild/kunder/liljekvists/wp-content/uploads/ao_ccss/queue.lock sorry
[01:34] <BUSY> is there a suggested ubuntu video editing client?
[01:49] <rjwiii> kdenlive
[01:50] <addedman8> is there something on linux that can read the properties of windows desktop shortcuts?
[01:52] <addedman8> on ubuntu, trying to find something like that
[01:52] <addedman8> text editor is a no go
[02:06] <untakenstupidnic> the fact that i choosed Iran(Tehran) as timezone (without installing any language packs or anything like that) doesn't mean i want month/weekday names in Arabic script Azeri.
[02:07] <untakenstupidnic> it makes the output of the date command a bunch of diamonds.
[02:08] <untakenstupidnic> it is ruining tmux.
[02:08] <untakenstupidnic> how could i turn it off?
[02:11] <untakenstupidnic> date output: جۆمعه آخشامی ۰۱ اوْکتوْبر ۲۰، ساعات ۰۵:۳۶:۳۴ (+0330)‬
[02:12] <untakenstupidnic> and it is only the time stuff that is affected and it is not even the correct language.
[02:19] <Maik> untakenstupidnic: time and date in the wrong language? Edit your locale
[02:20] <untakenstupidnic> LC_ALL is "" actually.
[02:24] <rypervenche> untakenstupidnic: What does the output of "locale" show?
[02:25] <untakenstupidnic> rypervenche, https://termbin.com/5v09
[02:27] <untakenstupidnic> It makes no sense to localize stuff without anyone telling you anything about it. Also it makes zero sense when you flip the whole UI when somebody chooses a right-to-left language. Just for programmers' information.
[02:30] <rypervenche> untakenstupidnic: LC_TIME governs the formatting used for date and time values. If you only want to change your timezone, then you don't want this set.
[03:16] <xbfrog> i have set 2 profiles in apparmor to complain mode. when i activate the app where do i see the complain mode comments?
[03:17] <xbfrog> is that in checking status?
[04:09] <yeahnahmate> hi guys could anyone explain what a loop & loopback device in linux is, with easy to explain analogy/example please-from what i can make out its an interface setup so that you can test manage the interface eg wifi network but not sure how that goes with a hd?
[04:10] <rjwiii> loopback h as nothing to do with the hard drive
[04:12] <yeahnahmate> so is it only to do with networking
[04:13] <tatertots> that doesn't sound like a ubuntu related issue at all
[04:14] <yeahnahmate> how about /dev/loop0 and /dev/loop2;3;4;5;6 what should i read about to understand what that is please?
[04:14] <yeahnahmate> fair call tatertots soz
[04:28] <jonnj> loopback device - in the linux/unix world a file can also act like a block device. in other words, a hard disk. of course it doesn't happen automatically. you have to create a mapping from the file to a specific device. once you do that, you can use the file as a device/hard disk.
[04:30] <jonnj> ok i just googled loopback device and it is talking about networks so maybe the terminology is different for a block device.
[04:30] <jonnj> actually i am getting a mixture of both definitions
[04:31] <jonnj> the concept is similar for block devices and networks
[05:19] <marcoagpinto> my Tor browser doesn't launch in 20.04.1
[05:19] <marcoagpinto> what is wrong with it?
[06:27] <yeahnahmate> marcoagpinto, another channel bud
[06:28] <marcoagpinto> that is what they told me on the bugs channel
[06:32] <drupol> Any can paste me the content of the file /etc/os-release please? (on Ubuntu 20.04)
[06:32] <drupol> s/any/anyone
[06:34] <yeahnahmate> marcoagpinto, join the oftc server then type here once opened /join #tor
[06:35] <yeahnahmate> https://www.torproject.org/contact/
[06:35] <marcoagpinto> yeahnahmate: but I can also no longer open .txt files with a double-click... I have to right-click and select "open with"
[06:35] <marcoagpinto> so a bug is somewhere
[06:36] <marcoagpinto> and while reinstalling Tor, Ubuntu 20.04.1 crashed and asked me to send a report
[06:36] <yeahnahmate> well download tails burn to usb and then select boot device usb and have some fun without the risk of wrecking your daily os
[06:38] <yeahnahmate> marcoagpinto, it runs torbrowser on a debian based operating system (forgets after reboot unless configured otherwise)
[06:38] <yeahnahmate> marcoagpinto, it works try it
[06:39] <yeahnahmate> are you running ubuntu marcoagpinto
[06:40] <yeahnahmate> whois marcoagpinto
[06:40] <yeahnahmate> lol
[06:40] <yeahnahmate> d/wrry
[06:40] <marcoagpinto> what?
[06:41] <marcoagpinto> I have VMs with 20.04.1 and 18.04
[06:41] <marcoagpinto> I installed Tor in one of the 20.04.1
[06:41] <yeahnahmate> try running tail in a vm prolly easier if your noobi
[06:41] <marcoagpinto> but both 20.04s only open .txt files with "open with", so something is messed up
[06:42] <yeahnahmate> make a new vm after you fin dloading tails iso
[06:42] <marcoagpinto> all was working fine two weeks ago
[06:42] <marcoagpinto> I haven't changed anything, except software update
[06:43] <yeahnahmate> dont stress it will b easier if you start fresh-is there anything you must have from the vm you made if not delete them and start fresh only take a minute
[06:43] <marcoagpinto> I will start fresh once 20.04.2 is out
[06:43] <marcoagpinto> :)
[06:43] <yeahnahmate> god only knows what you've done while clicking all those links on the darknet and markets lol
[06:44] <yeahnahmate> jokine
[06:44] <yeahnahmate> jokes
[06:44] <marcoagpinto> but I only have Tor in one the VMs
[06:44] <marcoagpinto> so, I have two 20.04s and both don't open a .txt file with a double-click
[06:45] <guiverc> yeahnahmate, are you trying to help people? or just spamming?
[06:45] <yeahnahmate> helping
[06:46] <yeahnahmate> what about all that came before that comment
[06:50] <yeahnahmate> marcoagpinto, your mouse will double click on your host os, but not on your virtual machine(s)?
[06:51] <marcoagpinto> what?
[06:51] <marcoagpinto> it double-clicks on both
[06:51] <yeahnahmate> im asking if your mouse works on your host os
[06:52] <marcoagpinto> yes, it works in it
[06:53] <yeahnahmate> but your mouse wont double click on the oracle virtual box virtual machine being ubuntu...?
[06:58] <marcoagpinto> so?
[06:58] <marcoagpinto> https://i.imgur.com/SJH2yHb.png
[06:58] <marcoagpinto> screenshot
[06:58] <marcoagpinto> is it helpful?
[07:01] <guiverc> marcoagpinto, if you want to explore that crash report, it'll be found in /var/crash/ , when submitted it will have a .uploaded appended to it, but the filename itself provides clues as to app/lib/etc that crashed.. it can be `rm` if you want the message to go away
[07:07] <marcoagpinto> guiverc: it was the tor browser launch
[07:07] <marcoagpinto> :)
[07:07] <LGee> Hello
[07:07] <marcoagpinto> when I clicked in the icon it downloaded it and crashed
[07:07] <marcoagpinto> :)
[07:07] <marcoagpinto> and "checking signature blah blah" never ends
[07:08] <marcoagpinto> because I went to the apps list and selected the option to reinstall it?
[07:08] <marcoagpinto> I can't remember
[07:08] <LGee> quick question I wasn't able to google: is there a user/password in the ubuntu installer for logging in via tty1 while the install is incomplete?
[07:08] <marcoagpinto> now the icon in the task bar always downloads it
[07:12] <OERIAS> there should an ubuntu-lgbtq channel
[07:12] <lotuspsychje> OERIAS: lxqt?
[07:12] <OERIAS> lotuspsychje, lgbtq
[07:13] <OERIAS> Lesbian Gay Bisexual Trans Queer
[07:13] <lotuspsychje> OERIAS: not here please
[07:14] <OERIAS> lotuspsychje, i am talking about it in reference to Ubuntu
[07:15] <mgedmin> LGee: I think 'ubuntu' and either no password or 'ubuntu' again, but I'm not 100% sure
[07:15] <lotuspsychje> !alis | OERIAS
[07:15] <mgedmin> LGee: IIRC during the installer you can get a root shell in tty2 without any need to log in?  or am I thinking about the server installer?
[07:18] <err0r404> hi
[07:19] <err0r404> I am new to ubuntu. i was wondering if there was a way to recover browser history or files
[07:20] <LGee> mgedmin: got it - tty1, ubuntu/no password, for reference, this is the 16.04 GUI installer
[07:20] <LGee> Thanks!
[07:22] <mgedmin> ... but why
[07:24] <err0r404> forgot an email to a site then deleted all my history and logins on accident. -_-
[07:26] <EdFletcher> files: no, not unless you’re willing to do some filesystem forensics. the browser side is application specific, it might’ve backed them up or uploaded them somewhere
[07:26] <err0r404> I am willing to do anything.
[07:26] <err0r404> there is no backup unfortunately.
[07:29] <mgedmin> people often don't care about backups until they lose precious data
[07:29] <EdFletcher> well first thing you have to do is unplug that drive immediately. depending on how long its been and how the fs reallocates pages, the data may already be gone.
[07:32] <err0r404> I think i figured out my problem now. thanks for the time.
[07:46] <dw1> to enable crash reports im told: Modify the /etc/apport/crashdb.conf file and comment this line 'problem_types': ['Bug', 'Package']
[07:46] <dw1> do i need to restart apport to re-read the .conf
[07:59] <yeahnahmate> lotuspsychje, how do i use the ubottu to search for a factoid
[08:00] <yeahnahmate> !alis | yeahnahmate
[08:11] <Ublx> morning
[08:12] <Ublx> problem: with xev I get my mouse buttons but with 'xbindkeys -k' no mouse button is detected. how can i solve it?
[09:31] <acebrianjuan> Hi folks, how come some programs have terminal autocompletion while others don't?
[09:33] <acebrianjuan> I mean, some programs like git show me the different options or flags that I can pass to it (by hitting the TAB key)
[09:34] <acebrianjuan> But other programs don't seem to have that feature
[09:34] <acebrianjuan> So when I hit TAB they don't print anything at all
[09:34] <mgedmin> it's not a program feature, it's a bash feature
[09:35] <mgedmin> and there's a set of defined bash completions (in the bash-completion package) that knows about some programs but not about others
[09:35] <mgedmin> some shells (fish!) try to infer possible completions from installed manual pages
[09:37] <acebrianjuan> Ok. So if I write my own program, can I create a bash completion?
[09:37] <acebrianjuan> If that makes any sense
[09:38] <mgedmin> you can, if you know a bit about shell programming
[09:38] <acebrianjuan> I don't
[09:38] <mgedmin> sometimes it can be automated, e.g. for python scripts there's https://pypi.org/project/argcomplete/
[09:38] <acebrianjuan> Is there such a thing for C/C++?
[09:39] <mgedmin> I haven't heard
[09:39] <mgedmin> but if you know C++, learning bash programming should be a piece of cake!
[09:40] <mgedmin> https://opensource.com/article/18/3/creating-bash-completion-script looks like a good resource
[09:41] <acebrianjuan> mgedmin: Thanks a lot for the link and for answering my questions! :)
[10:11] <acebrianjuan> mgedmin: Does the bash-completion package infer the completions for us?
[10:12] <mgedmin> "infer"?  no, it's all hardcoded
[10:14] <drupol> Is there someone who knows how I can upgrade to 20.04.1 ?
[10:14] <drupol> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/LnvnfOF2/
[10:14] <drupol> See this log ^^
[10:16] <mgedmin> drupol: to upgrade from 20.04 to 20.04.1 you don't need do-release-upgrade, you need a simple apt update && apt upgrade
[10:18] <drupol> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/VhTbgqPP/
[10:18] <drupol> mgedmin: ^^
[10:21] <mgedmin> hm, it looks like you're already on 20.04.1?  I wonder why lsb_release doesn't say that
[10:22] <mgedmin> drupol: can you pastebin the output of apt-cache policy base-files?
[10:31] <lapion> For some time now cd/dvd-rw blanking does not work because the sr device is locked by gnome or systemd can anyone verify for me if this is local to me ?
[10:33] <EriC^> lapion: does "id" list cdrom as a group
[10:33] <lapion> I am using root
[10:34] <mgedmin> does the cd-rw/dvd-rw have a valid filesystem that's currently mounted?
[10:34] <lapion> It's an audio cd and no matter hwta I do it's not unmountable
[10:35] <mgedmin> "locked by gnome or systemd", can you elaborate what that means?
[10:37] <lapion> Well I know at least gnome keeps the disk mounted as audio.. probably systemd has nothing ot do with it..
[10:41] <mgedmin> I don't believe the kernel supports mounting audio CDs
[10:41] <mgedmin> I believe that gvfs allows accessing audio CDs as if it were a filesystem full of WAV files, but that's all in userspace
[10:42] <mgedmin> and it shouldn't be keeping the device open all the time, if nothing accesses those files?
[10:42] <mgedmin> can you check if there are any processes keeping the device open?  fuser -v /dev/sr* /dev/sg* in a terminal can be helpful
[10:45] <lapion> I logged out, logged into a console killed all perviously logged-in's user processes and now it appears to be blanking the cd
[10:46] <lapion> But the same problem appear at burn time because the DE locks the drive for on-the-fly creation and doesn't release for brasero or any other frontend or backend disk burining software
[10:52] <mgedmin> 'DE' is a bunch of cooperating processes and it would be useful to see (via fuser and ps) which one it is
[10:54] <lapion> well at least in lsof nothing appears to be using the sr0..
[10:54] <lapion> erm sr1
[10:55] <lapion> will login back to DE in moment to try fuser
[10:56] <mgedmin> what about sg?  it's been years, but iirc cdroms had two devices, srX and sgX, one for cd-rom stuff and one for generic scsi commands
[10:57] <mgedmin> different interfaces to the same hardware device
[11:24] <shkurata> Hello
[11:24] <shkurata> Can someone help me with setting up my openvpn connection?
[11:25] <shkurata> when I'm connected, I can only browse the my work websites
[11:25] <shkurata> and nothing else
[11:25] <shkurata> I have to add some gateway maybe?
[11:25] <shkurata> for the public websites
[11:26] <shkurata> any idea?
[11:37] <zigtac> hey
[11:37] <drupol> mgedmin:
[11:37] <drupol> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/5QcNJ0bn/
[11:37] <drupol> apt-cache policy base-files ^^
[11:39] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[11:40] <mgedmin> drupol: whoa, _where_ did you get that 11ubuntu5.2+p20.04+git20200903.1459 version?
[11:41] <mgedmin> google gives me 'KDE neon 20200930', which is what?
[11:41] <mgedmin> some ubuntu derivative?
[11:41] <XATRIX> Hi, can you advice ? How can i stop to receive Contents while i try to update my  sources ?
[11:41] <XATRIX> http://i.imgur.com/I4ZVqTi.png
[11:41] <mgedmin> anyway, that's why lsb_release doesn't say 20.04.1
[11:42] <XATRIX> It takes forever to 'apt udpate'
[11:43] <Maik> mgedmin: KDE Neon is Ubuntu based but no a official flavor for which we can't provide support here
[11:44] <Maik> drupol: ^^
[11:45] <drupol> mgedmin: Do you think I can revert?
[11:45] <drupol> Maik: ^^
[11:45] <Maik> if you need support with Neon you need to either go to their channel or forum
[11:48] <drupol> They have a channel ?
[11:48] <Maik> drupol: with ^^ i meant that line was also for you. :)
[11:49] <Maik> drupol: look at their website for their official support media/channels/etc.
[11:50] <BluesKaj> drupol, #kde-neon
[11:50] <Maik> they are also on telegram
[11:50] <Maik> BluesKaj: that channel isn't for user support and basically dead
[11:51] <Maik> it was meant for the devs
[11:51] <Maik> bt they don't seem to use it that much these days
[11:51] <Maik> bt/but
[11:51] <BluesKaj> odd , i received suppoer there when i tried it
[11:52] <Maik> here on freenode?
[11:52] <BluesKaj> support even
[11:52] <Maik> drupol: https://webchat.kde.org/#/room/#kde-neon-users:kde.org
[11:53] <BluesKaj> yes, freenode
[11:54] <Maik> BluesKaj: i've been there a couple of times before and there was no activity for weeks or even months.
[11:55] <BluesKaj> it's been a while tho. maybe the "attitude" has changed
[11:56] <Maik> they moved to kde.org with chat support, hence the link i posted. :)
[11:56] <BluesKaj> anyway it was an unstable OS , so i drpped it
[11:56] <drupol> Thank you all
[11:56] <Maik> np, yw
[12:04] <xMeia> How do I get permanent root access?
[12:05] <EriC^> xMeia: sudo -i
[12:07] <xMeia> yeah but like
[12:07] <xMeia> I cant enter media etc and stuff
[12:07] <xMeia> access denied?
[12:07] <xMeia> xubuntu 20.04.1
[12:08] <EriC^> what are you trying to do exactly
[12:09] <xMeia> Im trying to access my USB stick
[12:10] <xMeia> I can see it mounted in Thunar but it's empty when it's not, cant copy files to it ...
[12:11] <EriC^> xMeia: try to unmount it and then mount it from thunar again
[12:11] <EriC^> xMeia: if you type "groups" in a terminal does it mention plugdev, not sure if thats it
[12:11] <mgedmin> how is the USB stick formatted?
[12:11] <mgedmin> VFAT or ext4?
[12:13] <xMeia> I don't know
[12:13] <xMeia> how 2 check
[12:13] <EriC^> xMeia: pastebin the output of "mount"
[12:18] <XATRIX> Hi, can you advice ? How can i stop to receive Contents while i try to update my  sources ?
[12:18] <XATRIX> It takes forever to 'apt udpate'
[12:18] <XATRIX> http://i.imgur.com/I4ZVqTi.png
[12:19] <mgedmin> the entire purpose of 'apt update' is to download all the updated Contents and other files
[12:19] <mgedmin> your choices are (a) wait patiently, (b) get a faster network connection, (c) not run 'apt update'
[12:24] <StyXman> I have a system I can't boot (has 14 disks, but the bios only presents 5 and none of those boot (so I guess the one where I put Ubuntu in is not one of those, and the BIOS does not provide me with info *which* disks are those). what I do have is the PXE image I installed the system to begin with, but trying to provide root=/dev/sdm2 still breaks because even when the partition is detected by the kernel, it tries to find the live system with the
[12:24] <StyXman> installer. I removed from the kernel params boot=casper, references to netboot, splash, toram (???) and more, but still tries to find the live stuff. does anyone has any idea what can I do with this?
[12:24] <BluesKaj> XATRIX, perhaps a different mirror will help
[12:25] <StyXman> I still see references to casper
[12:26] <XATRIX> BluesKaj: maybe it can switch off Contents download ?
[12:26] <StyXman> I just even tried with init=/bin/bash, it just does nothing
[12:27] <mgedmin> where is ~/.xsession-errors in these modern days (Wayland session on 20.04)?
[12:29] <StyXman> 'unable to find a medium container a live file system' maybe I'm misunderstanding 'live' there?
[12:30] <BluesKaj> XATRIX, "contents"?
[12:30] <mgedmin> answering my own question: journalctl --user -f
[12:31] <XATRIX> BluesKaj: Get:48 http://mirror.yandex.ru/ubuntu bionic-security amd64 Contents (deb) [95.5 MB]
[12:31] <XATRIX> i thinks it's too much to download
[12:33] <BluesKaj> XATRIX, looks to me like you need the security/contents ...seems you have a slow internet connection as well
[12:34] <XATRIX> BluesKaj: yea, but can i disable these contents updates ?
[12:34] <BluesKaj> not advisable XATRIX
[12:35] <BluesKaj> they're 0security updates
[12:35] <xMeia> Again..... how do I check format on my USB?
[12:35] <BluesKaj> correction: security, XATRIX
[12:36] <XATRIX> BluesKaj: yea, but fresh new install of ubuntu, syncs in a 5-6 seconds, and mine does it in 5 min
[12:36] <StyXman> xMeia: do you mean the file system type in your usb device?
[12:36] <xMeia> yes
[12:36] <XATRIX> i only need packages
[12:37] <StyXman> xMeia: can you attach it?
[12:37] <xMeia> yes
[12:37] <xMeia> can't see any files on it
[12:37] <StyXman> it's empty?
[12:37] <BluesKaj> it's your call XATRIX..
[12:37] <xMeia> no
[12:38] <StyXman> xMeia: maybe the device has more than one partition?
[12:38] <xMeia> I don't think so, tried another usb, same thing
[12:38] <StyXman> that would be weird
[12:38] <xMeia> Xubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
[12:38] <xMeia> yeah
[12:39] <XATRIX> BluesKaj: http://i.imgur.com/0jbJx81.png
[12:39] <StyXman> are you sure there is no warning/error messabe? I'm sorry, but I actually use kubuntu, so I can't guide more specifically here :(
[12:39] <StyXman> xMeia: are you OK with terminal commands?
[12:39] <xMeia> yes
[12:40] <StyXman> k, fire up a terminal and run: mount
[12:40] <StyXman> paste the output in pastebin.ubunutu.com and bring the URL here
[12:41] <XATRIX> BluesKaj: and remove 'apt-fille'
[12:41] <xMeia> https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/SdZTsHzRyz/
[12:42] <OnkelBlade> Hi all. I have a problem with my laptop: whenever I plug the charger, my laptop goes into sleep mode
[12:43] <OnkelBlade> Any ideas why is that?
[12:43] <StyXman> /dev/sdb1 on /media/philip/KINGSTON type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,showexec,utf8,flush,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2)
[12:43] <StyXman> yeah, the device is mounted
[12:43] <OnkelBlade> It is so irritating because it also break all network connections
[12:43] <StyXman> xMeia:  can you browse to that path, /media/philip/KINGSTON ?
[12:44] <xMeia> no, access denied
[12:44] <StyXman> ah!
[12:44] <StyXman> I don't know how to help you there
[12:45] <StyXman> that disk is vfat, so you should be able to browse there
[12:45] <StyXman> last one: run id and just paste thr ouput here
[12:45] <StyXman> (it's just one line)
[12:45] <BluesKaj> XATRIX, so you added apt-file and you think it's slowing down your updates. I guess that possible, but I have no experience with it and appears to be safe to remove, yes
[12:45] <xMeia> uid=1000(philip) gid=1000(philip) grupper=1000(philip),4(adm),20(dialout),21(fax),24(cdrom),25(floppy),26(tape),27(sudo),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),121(lpadmin),131(lxd),132(sambashare)
[12:46] <xMeia> I don't understand why I can't access the os maps, like im not admin, how do I get that fixed??????
[12:46] <xMeia> I think thats maybe why I wont reach into the USB
[12:47] <StyXman> xMeia: it's a permission thing
[12:47] <StyXman> your uid/guid matches (1000 vs 1000, see the mount options)
[12:47] <StyXman> xMeia: ok, another one: ls -ld /media/philip/KINGSTON
[12:47] <StyXman> paste it here, should be one line
[12:48] <StyXman> ip a
[12:48] <StyXman> oups
[12:49] <xMeia> ls: kan inte komma åt '/media/philip/KINGSTON': Åtkomst nekas
[12:49] <xMeia> ls: cant reach '/media....
[12:49] <xMeia> Access denied
[12:50] <StyXman> oh
[12:50] <StyXman> ok
[12:50] <StyXman> namei -lx /media/philip/KINGSTON
[12:50] <StyXman> and paste it in pastebin
[12:52] <xMeia> https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/yHxzwpdVgW/
[12:52] <xMeia> last words in swedish: Åtkomst nekad = Access Denied
[12:54] <StyXman> drwxr-x--- root root media <-- that's bad
[12:54] <StyXman> chmod 755 /media
[12:54] <StyXman> should fix it
[12:56] <xMeia> chmod: ändrar rättigheter på '/media': Operationen inte tillåten
[12:56] <xMeia> means
[12:56] <xMeia> changes rights on '/media': Operation not allowed
[12:57] <wawrek> hi there
[12:57] <StyXman> yeah, I forgot sudo
[12:57] <StyXman> sudo chmod 755 /media
[12:58] <StyXman> xMeia: see https://xkcd.com/149/ :)
[12:58] <xMeia> I GOT IN =D
[12:58] <wawrek> May this affect my system (on my laptop) if in /etc/ssh/sshd_config I set "PasswordAuthentication" to "no" ?
[12:58] <xMeia> Thank you!
[12:58] <StyXman> xMeia: yeah, I wonder what happened there
[12:59] <wawrek> I want to disable password ssh login on my laptop for security
[12:59] <StyXman>  /media in my system is 755 too
[12:59] <StyXman> wawrek: man sshd_config
[13:00] <StyXman> wawrek: PasswordAuthentication Specifies whether password authentication is allowed.  The default is yes.
[13:00] <wawrek> StyXman: I don't have it.
[13:00] <wawrek> StyXman: password authentication using ssh.
[13:00] <StyXman> change /etc/ssh/sshd_config, then restart the ssh service
[13:01] <StyXman> oh, ubuntu comes without man pages by default? :(((
[13:01] <wawrek> can this have an impact on the login, auth functionality of my machine?
[13:01] <StyXman> wawrek: https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/sshd_config.5.html
[13:01] <StyXman> nop, just ssh
[13:02] <StyXman> youre changing sshd's configuration, not something at the system level (in that case you would be meddling with /etc/pam.d/ files instead :)
[13:02] <wawrek> I will try to disable. if I connect with ssh, I want to do that with the ssh key only; without password authentication
[13:02] <wawrek> StyXman: this is really clear to me - thanks a lot
[13:02] <StyXman> :)
[13:03] <BluesKaj> xMeia, you might consider adding the drive to /etc/fstab, run sudo blkid for the UUID and add it with the other required settings as described here https://www.techrepublic.com/article/how-to-properly-automount-a-drive-in-ubuntu-linux/
[13:05] <StyXman> BluesKaj: I don't know about gnome, but kde can handle that without medling with /etc/fstab
[13:06] <BluesKaj> StyXman, how?
[13:08] <BluesKaj> StyXman, adding a device to fstab assures an automount at boot. I
[13:08] <StyXman> BluesKaj: yeah, but if it's a pluggable device, it makes no sense
[13:08] <xMeia> I don't understand
[13:09] <StyXman> I can even configure automounting by device
[13:09] <BluesKaj> yeah same here, by using fstab :-)
[13:11] <BluesKaj> btw I'm on lde/plasma as well. fstab entries are insurance
[13:11] <StyXman> _shrug_
[13:11] <BluesKaj> kde/plasma
[13:13] <StyXman> BluesKaj: I missed the original question, so maybe Iḿ missing some detail
[13:13] <StyXman> if it's just a usb stick, I don't see the point in adding it to fstab
[13:20] <BluesKaj> StyXman, well, I'm guilty of ignoring the removeable devices option in the panel/system tray with the automount option
[13:20] <BluesKaj> i just naturally use /etc/fstab after all these yrs ...force of habit
[13:23] <drupol> Where can I browse the source of this package?
[13:23] <drupol> https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/ubuntu-release-upgrader-core
[13:24] <drupol> I would like to see the content of this file: /etc/update-manager/meta-release
[13:27] <tarzeau> drupol: in the source package: dget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/ubuntu-release-upgrader/ubuntu-release-upgrader_20.04.18.dsc
[13:27] <drupol> Thanks
[13:28] <drupol> Is it possible to force the reinstallation of that package on my system?
[13:28] <tarzeau> sure but that will not guarantee anything with /etc/* changes
[13:28] <tarzeau> apt --reinstall install pkg
[13:29] <drupol> testing this out
[13:29] <drupol> Reinstallation of ubuntu-release-upgrader-core is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[13:30] <StyXman> BluesKaj: ok
[13:31] <StyXman> drupol: mybe you need to run apt update first
[13:32] <drupol> I did StyXman
[13:35] <StyXman> then dunno
[13:35] <StyXman> doesn it mention any type of error? 'cannot be downloaded' is too generic
[13:50] <drupol> StyXman: nothing no...
[13:54] <BluesKaj> drupol, ask your reral questio, why do think you need to reinstall ubuntu-release-upgrader-core?
[13:54] <BluesKaj> question
[13:54] <drupol> BluesKaj: I did a mistake by installing kde neon. I'd like to go back to regular ubuntu...
[13:55] <BluesKaj> ubuntu or kubuntu?
[13:58] <drupol> first ubuntu, then kubuntu, then kde neon
[13:58] <drupol> Oh sorry
[13:58] <drupol> I'd like to restore 20.04 kubuntu.
[13:59] <StyXman> restore?
[13:59] <drupol> Yeah... get rid of KDE Neon stuff
[13:59] <StyXman> drupol: remove kubuntu-desktop, I guess
[14:00] <drupol> nope, wont work
[14:00] <StyXman> use aptitude and search for kde and remove everything
[14:00] <drupol> apparently I have to reinstall ubuntu...
[14:00] <drupol> KDE Neon override base packages
[14:00] <drupol> like base-files, etc etc
[14:00] <StyXman> ugh
[14:01] <StyXman> yeah, sounds like a reinstall
[14:01] <StyXman> I home your home is in another partition
[14:01] <drupol> :s this is a bit s***y
[14:01] <drupol> Nope
[14:01] <StyXman> I hope*
[14:01] <drupol> this is a corporate laptop
[14:01] <drupol> I cannot reinstall
[14:01] <StyXman> drupol: kde neon is not part of ubuntu, is it?
[14:01] <drupol> no it's not
[14:01] <StyXman> then don't complain to us that kde neon fscked the system
[14:02] <StyXman> rolling back is going to be painful
[14:03] <StyXman> it *is* possible, just install on the same machine but remove everything *except* /home (and maybe backup /etc) and *don't* format the partitions
[14:03] <StyXman> 'just' with lots of quotes
[14:06] <goddard> when turning on my screen from it being off why does it cut out my sound?
[14:07] <goddard> for a moment
[14:07] <goddard> what software is doing that?
[14:07] <goddard> pulseaudio?
[14:07] <goddard> i imagine a new audio device was found, but why does that cut the sound out of an existing device?
[14:14] <StyXman> ok, I changed my problem: I'm in the TUI server installer, I just reformated a disk with GPT, I have / properly defined, I have the EFI (ef00) partition there, the installer tells me I have to select a boot disk. I try to select the disk for booting, but the meny entry is greyed. I also try to use the EFI partition, and it tells me 'this is an esp as required by uefi, if this disk is selected as a boot device, grub will use it' and doesn't allow me to
[14:14] <StyXman>  use the disk to boot!
[14:18] <EriC^> StyXman: boot device or bootloader installation device?
[14:19] <StyXman> the (last) message says 'boot device'
[14:19] <StyXman> and I tried to select 'use the disk for booting'
[14:20] <EriC^> hmm, maybe they mean the /boot partition?
[14:20] <StyXman> I just erased everything and recreated it in the partition thing and it seems it's going to do the right thing
[14:20] <StyXman> EriC^: yeah, it was not alowwing em to select it as the boot partition
[14:21] <EriC^> maybe try selecting the rootfs
[14:21] <StyXman> it was selected
[14:21] <EriC^> whats tui?
[14:21] <StyXman> terminal user interface
[14:22] <StyXman> so blocky ascii thing
[14:23] <EriC^> this is ubuntu server iso?
[14:23] <StyXman>  I guess, it's all through a PXE booting
[14:24] <StyXman> you have no idea the fun I'm having with a HTML5 remote console (IPMI)
[14:24] <StyXman> C-w in bash is not erase left word, it's close the browser's tab :-P
[14:26] <StyXman> WTF di it do, I have 2 linux prtitions?
[15:11] <hejkki> hello. Can i somehow "semi automatically" build a package such as gnome-terminal from source in ubuntu? I think i need to apply some build options that aren't present on the system by default (to allow RTL text to work)
[15:12] <sunkist> hejkki: look into apt-get build-deps and apt-get source
[15:12] <hejkki> ok thanks
[15:14] <sunkist> I'm running ubuntu desktop 20:04.  I closed the lid to my laptop with programs running, and now when I open the lid, I just have a black screen.  I have access to the console if I hit ctrl-alt-F4.  If I hit ctrl-alt-F2, I get the graphical login interface, but authenticating gives me just a black screen (with mouse pointer.)
[15:14] <sunkist> How can I kill that graphical session from the command line?
[15:18] <hejkki> sunkist: systemctl restart gdm
[15:18] <hejkki> if you use gdm
[15:20] <hejkki> sunkist: or instead of "restart" try "stop" if you really need to stop it
[15:20] <sunkist> hejkki: thanks, that did it!
[15:20] <hejkki> :)
[15:23] <xbfrog> i have login password turned off but at logon or reboot it returns to the desktop ok but then opening chrome requires authorization. where is this coming from? how do i turn it off?
[15:29] <xbfrog> trying a fix hope it works be back
[15:41] <xbfrog> seems rm ~/.local/share/keyrings/*
[15:41] <xbfrog> did it
[15:41] <xbfrog> no login or chrome authorizations
[15:45] <linux_daemon> hello everyone, i have lenovo thinkpad e480, installed ubuntu 20.04 on it, and the only problem i have, the laptop has headphone/mic combo, when i put the headphones on it, if i play music on youtube or anywhere else, i will not hear it on the headphones, but only on the speakers. tried all solutions i could find on google, but no luck
[15:46] <linux_daemon> can anyone help me with that?
[15:47] <xbfrog>  are your headphones plugin or bluetooth?
[15:49] <xbfrog> plugin? test your headphones on another plugin system like home stereo or boombox or smartphone
[15:50] <linux_daemon> headphones, headphones jack. it is weird - it started working now
[15:50] <linux_daemon> i guess i have no more issues :D
[15:50] <xbfrog> perhaps loose headphone jack or computer jack
[15:51] <xbfrog> if it happens again try another headphone if you have one
[15:51] <linux_daemon> no, i guess the fixes required the laptop to be shut down, and turned back on, rather than the suggested reboot
[15:52] <xbfrog> um
[15:52] <linux_daemon> i have several pairs of headphones, and they all work now
[15:52] <xbfrog> odd
[15:52] <linux_daemon> yes, odd, but it works now
[15:53] <linux_daemon> what does: sudo init 6 do? saw that command, not sure what it does
[15:53] <linux_daemon> ah, found it
[15:54] <linux_daemon> anyways, thank you!
[15:54] <xbfrog> sure
[15:54] <xbfrog> usually the best fixes are the ones you find yourself :)
[16:03] <lesshaste>  what's the best tool for splicing and cutting videos?
[16:04] <ThinkT510> you can try openshot
[16:04] <lesshaste> ThinkT510, thanks
[16:05] <lesshaste> what about losslesscut? Any good
[16:06] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[16:06] <silv3r_m00n> i am playing asphalt on my mobile using a gamepad connected to it via the usbc port.... how can i stream the screen of my mobile on ubuntu, with minimal or no lag
[16:07] <silv3r_m00n> its a samsung M20
[16:08] <xbfrog> have you tried using guiscrpy via a cable? i have it works but you won't most likely get full screen
[16:09] <silv3r_m00n> i need to stream via wifi, since the only port on mobile is connected to gamepad
[16:09] <xbfrog> ic, i used wirelsss ps4 controller
[16:10] <silv3r_m00n> ah
[16:10] <xbfrog> no usb hub?
[16:10] <silv3r_m00n> yes but not usbc connectable
[16:10] <silv3r_m00n> wait i have
[16:10] <xbfrog> right connect the controler to the usb hub
[16:10] <silv3r_m00n> alright hang on

[16:17] <lokus> hello. i'm trying to install a package on a ubuntu 14 machine behind a network hop that can't access apt-get repos (no gateway). i have another ubuntu 18 system that is connected. what's a simple way to grab specific versioned .deb's that i could scp over to install?
[16:17] <enyc> lokus: fwiw ubuntu 14.04 lts  is  no longer supported
[16:17] <enyc> lokus: you could set up a  squid3  proxy on the ubuntu 18.04 system
[16:17] <lokus> enyc: okay, the machine is ubuntu 16. same problem
[16:18] <enyc> lokus: you may need to use special  old-releases.ubuntu.com   in soruces.list to get some old release apt packages
[16:19] <enyc> lokus: though, it seems  trusty (14.04) is actually still no  the main archive servers at the moment
[16:19] <lokus> okay, was hoping for like a command line option to provide version.
[16:19] <enyc> lokus: hrrm...   packages.ubuntu.com web interface?
[16:19] <lokus> oh yes? i will look there
[16:20] <enyc> hrrm looks like it doesn't show trusty any more
[16:20] <lokus> may just try ssh tunnel otherwise
[16:20] <enyc> it will 16.04 xenial though
[16:20] <enyc> lokus: yes, you shuold be able to get 14.04 properly updated to last released patches
[16:20] <lokus> i thought i remembered doing this before.. apt-get install'ing specific versions (not --download-only), in this case. but perhaps it was still within the same major release
[16:21] <enyc> lokus: yes, you can  apt-get -yd install SOMETHING    and download debs  for CURRENT system that way, which end up in  /var/cache/apt/archives
[16:21] <lokus> ah, okay. thank you
[16:21] <enyc> lokus: however, do seriously consider just building a 20.04 system to do what you need  rather than patching a 14.04  in all honesty may be better use of resources
[16:22] <enyc> lokus: that only good if you have another 14.04 or 16.04 system   and in any case you can have lal sorts of nonsense with  dependencies
[16:22] <lokus> enyc: this is a lab target i need to install a networking performance tool on. that's it..
[16:22] <enyc> lokus: yes, may be better to ssh tunnel a proxy to it... so it can apt-get update  etc directly
[16:24] <enyc> lokus: [i can help with the proxy whatnot]
[16:25] <lokus> thanks very much, will try this quick
[16:35] <hackinghorn> heh hii
[16:36] <hackinghorn> I read that debian is more stable. But can anyone gives an example of anything breaking due to ubuntu's less stability?
[16:36] <hackinghorn> give*
[16:38] <xbfrog> try it find out for yourself is the best way
[16:38] <leftyfb> !ot | hackinghorn
[16:38] <ThinkT510> kernel updates (especially if you use proprietry graphics or wifi drivers) can sometimes cause stability issues
[16:40] <hackinghorn> hmm thankss
[17:18] <Ublx> hello, my mouse is working in xev but in 'xbindkeys -k' I cannot get a result for the buttons. any ideas why? and how to solve it? thanks a lot.
[17:49] <pavlos> Ublx: did you create the defaults in ~/.xbindkeysrc ... tried it on 20.04 xbindkeys -k works (pop a window, I press two keys, it tells me what I pressed. I can add this to my .xbindkeysrc
[17:52] <pavlos> Ublx: control and left mouse button gives me, m:0x14 + c:105 Control+Mod2 + Control_R
[18:16] <Ether_Man> Is there some other way to install rtl8821ce module other than dkms and compiling myself and such? Doing that requires packages that I don't have access to without Wifi. I can only transfer files to it over usb. Machine does not have any wired NIC so I cannot run the apt commands the guides I find want me to run :/
[18:25] <leftyfb> Ether_Man: you could use a usb -> ethernet adapter
[18:26] <Ether_Man> Possibly, but don't have any and not about to go buy one just for that :/
[18:38] <Ublx> pavlos: this does not work for me...
[18:39] <Ublx> pavlos: thanks for testing. do you have an idea why the buttons work everywhere but not in xbindkeys?
[18:51] <Doc-Saintly> Under Mouse And Touchpad I see the option "Left Click Only" , "Automatic", and "Emulate Mouse Buttons"
[18:52] <Doc-Saintly> both the AUtomatic and Emulate options make a middle click area on the touch pad. Is it possible to get a "Left and Right Click only:?
[19:04] <Cheetz> I got a nvidia gt610 to drive an extra monitor alongside those driven by my already installed gtx 1660, which uses proprietary drivers. How do I install the gt610 in the same system and make them work without driver conflicts and other possible issues?
[19:16] <acebrianjuan> Hi all, random question here. If you were to define a program flag to print the version of said program in the terminal buffer but you couldn't use the obvious (-v) becuase it's already being used for another purpose, what would be your choice?
[19:16] <Habbie> -V, --version, leave it to dpkg
[19:16] <acebrianjuan> For instance, some programs use the -v for verbose output
[19:16] <Habbie> print it in -h
[19:17] <acebrianjuan> Habbie: Thanks!
[19:17] <Habbie> np :)
[19:17] <acebrianjuan> What do you mean by "leave it to dpkg" ?
[19:17] <Habbie> this is #ubuntu; the assumption is that any software on the system was installed through the usual methods of software installation on ubuntu
[19:17] <Habbie> that means that dpkg knows the versions of everything
[19:17] <kxsl> Cheetz, you will probably have to edit xorg.conf and look the docs for that and that driver
[19:18] <pavlos> Cheetz: I think you need to make a custom xorg.conf and for the 4th moitor pass the BusID parameter like PCI:5:0:0
[19:18] <Cheetz> pavlos, what drivers should I install? Is it safe to plug in the second gpu without any special preparation? I'm worried about breaking my OS
[19:18] <pavlos> Cheetz: the primary video card would have PCI:1:0:0
[19:19] <pavlos> Cheetz: plug in the second card and see what nvidia detects
[19:24] <Cheetz> brb gonna do that
[19:37] <ioria> \
[20:03] <Ublx> pavlos: do you have an idea why it's not working for me with xbindkeys -k?
[20:12] <pavlos> Ublx: no, I dont ...
[20:12] <pavlos> Ublx: no
[20:13] <pavlos> Ublx: tried key and mouse, not just mouse
[20:14] <pavlos> Ublx: mouse by itself does not show any code but some combo of alt shift ctrl and left|right mouse generates code
[20:17] <Ublx> thanks pavlos. good to know that it should work this way!
[20:19] <subcool> stupid Q> - but serious.
[20:19] <subcool> Is something going on with Exfat? in the world?
[20:20] <pavlos> Ublx: also read about xdotool
[20:20] <leftyfb> !ot | subcool
[20:20] <subcool> FireCube wont recogize it, but AndroidTV will. My ParrotSec OS refuses to mount it. Even with the packages installed. i saw somewhere i had to do a workaround to make it usable by users, with root use. !?!?!?! - I currently have a Ubuntu LIve running, and i cant format a External drive to exfat. -
[20:21] <subcool> glad to see u too leftyfb
[20:21] <Ublx> i'll do, pavlos
[20:22] <leftyfb> subcool: https://itsfoss.com/format-exfat-linux/
[20:22] <subcool> So why would a fresh, Ubutnu 20, with freshly installed exfat-util and exfat-fuse deny formatting a drive with exfat?
[20:22] <subcool> im a bit scared of itsfoss - they use to be good. now u got wacky fix it guides.
[20:23] <subcool> yeah.. cli - no
[20:23] <pavlos> df
[20:23] <subcool> idk how 20 years later, all of you are soo attached to it. - Here lets memorize EVERY aspect of this program AND ALL OTHERS. Dont know? use the man. - oh ok. :/
[20:24] <subcool> great example. use ClamAV - HA
[20:24] <Ublx> pavlos: for me, control for itself shows the same as with the left button ... but I'll check it out.
[20:24] <subcool> But back to my point- Seriously. why is Exfat being stupid? 3 OS's later... im here to find out whats up.
[20:25] <subcool> Gparted refuses to acknowldge ive install exfat.
[20:26] <subcool> WHen i use gdisk to create exfat - mac refuses to ackowldge it is a drive. Along with a couple android devices.
[20:28] <oerheks> i think exfat want GPT
[20:28] <subcool> really?
[20:29] <oerheks> yes, not MBR
[20:29] <subcool> that might have been an issue.
[20:30] <subcool> its the only universal FS, im puzzled that its breaking everywhere. i plug it in.
[20:31] <subcool> thanks.. ill raed into that.. that might be an issue. i know when ou do that stuff, certian that to be specific.
[20:31] <subcool> like, most of the time. if automated, i isee a 200mb efi parition;
[20:32] <boredguy> Any idea how to get ZFS to work on the new LTS distro?
[20:32] <boredguy> I tried it but the PC fails to boot
[20:33] <subcool> boredguy, wow
[20:34] <tomreyn> subcool: utilities for native exfat support will be in !ubuntu+1
[20:34] <oerheks> that efi is for the secure boot thingy, master boot record cannot be changes to GPT easily, afaik.
[20:34] <boredguy> So basically its no surprise then?
[20:34] <subcool> boredguy, zfs is dangerous
[20:35] <boredguy> I've been a freebsd user before. I know what it is.
[20:35] <subcool> i live booted ubutnu on my freenas machine to see what was wrong, ubuntu f'ed my zfs. given that was a long time ago. but- booting off zfs? --?????? whenever i tried booting froma ZFS it would say invalid boot medium
[20:35] <tomreyn> boredguy: by "new LTS distro", do yuo mean Ubuntu 20.04 LTS? did you try the experimental zfs support option on the desktop installer?
[20:36] <boredguy> tomreyn: yep, that's the one
[20:36] <subcool> oh boy
[20:36] <tomreyn> boredguy: is this in response to the first or second question?
[20:36] <boredguy> Both
[20:37] <tomreyn> 20.04.0, 20.04.1?
[20:37] <subcool> k- thanks guys. dinner time. boredguy good luck. tomreyn thanks! leftyfb see ya soon.
[20:37] <pavlos> subcool: I added a disk in my 20.04 VM, used gnome-disks to format it to exFAT. Gparted shows /dev/sdb1 as exfat, "sudo fdisk-l /dev/sdb" says /dev/sdb1 2048 20971519 20969472  10G  7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
[20:37] <boredguy> 20.04.1 I guess. I downloaded the latest one on the website
[20:39] <boredguy> Yep, its 20.04.1. Tried the experimental ZFS option and the PC didn't boot up to Ubuntu after the installation.
[20:39] <tomreyn> boredguy: hmm, did you make any other customizations during installation?
[20:40] <tomreyn> also: how much ram does it have? and: what's the error message / last screen you get to see?
[20:41] <boredguy> Nope, just selected an entire 250gb SSD.
[20:41] <boredguy> 12gigs of ram
[20:42] <boredguy> I'm reinstalling it. I'll post the error here when it shows up.
[20:42] <tomreyn> any unusual hardware, machine / cpu architecture even?
[20:42] <boredguy> Newest thinkpad. 10th gen Intel. Will that be a problem?
[20:43] <tomreyn> hmm, i *think* those work with 20.04.1, but not certain
[20:44] <boredguy> Hopefully, it'll boot the second time.
[20:45] <tomreyn> oh htose went to market in spring, so yes, i'd expect 20.04.1 to support them (maybe .0, too)
[20:46] <tomreyn> upgrading your bios first may be a good idea
[20:50] <steverrrr> Hi, I mistakenly booted into "Windows System Restore" and it seems to have corrupted my /home partition and now Ubuntu boots into emergency mode, saying I should run fsck manually.  Anyone familiar with this behavior?
[21:28] <darrend> I'm getting about 30,000 of these lines per day in my syslog (ubunti 20.04.1): "/usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[5424]: [5793:5813:1001/222713.134315:ERROR:ssl_client_socket_impl.cc(959)] handshake failed; returned -1, SSL error code 1, net_error -100
[21:29] <darrend> anyone know what they're caused by?
[21:29] <tomreyn> steverrrr: no, but i suggest you do as it suggests. worst case, you'll have to restore backups.
[21:32] <tomreyn> darrend: that's gdm failing to set up a TLS connection, probably due to a remote server or proxy server not supporting a compatible TLS protocol version. now why gdm would report this, i'm not sure.
[21:34] <tomreyn> darrend: are you using third party apt repositories which provide packages which override ubuntu's?
[21:34] <tomreyn> or maybe you manually installed .deb's from somewhere?
[21:35] <darrend> tomreyn: I have a few third party apt repos and a few manually installed deb's but none that are overriding ubuntu packages AFAIK
[21:36] <tomreyn> apt-foktracer can help identify whether that's so
[21:36] <tomreyn> * apt-forktracer
[21:37] <darrend> tomreyn: I'll check it out, thanks
[21:38] <tomreyn> this may also help: apt list gdm3 libssl1.0.0 libssl1.1
[21:40] <tomreyn> gdm3 should be 3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1, libssl1.1 should be 1.1.1f-1ubuntu2 and libssl1.0.0 should not be installed.
[21:43] <iekfkk22> fbdump is it there on ubuntu framebuffer dump cmd
[21:44] <darrend> tomreyn: yeah, libssl1.0.0 was installed which seems the likely culprit, now removed
[21:45] <tomreyn> darrend: so something may have gone wrong during your release upgrade
[21:47] <tomreyn> also note that, unless you desire the filtering or remote logging or any of the syslog specific features of rsyslog, you could just remove this and just live with systemd-journald.
[21:47] <darrend> seems probable. Will see if those errors disappear after a reboot (they're still flooding the log just now). Appreciate your help :)
[21:47] <tomreyn> it will certainly prevail until you restart the gdm x session
[21:48] <tomreyn> you're welcome
[22:59] <pfloyd> seems I have a catch-22 problem. conflict between libpython3.6-stdlib and python3-distutils for /usr/lib/python3.6/distutils/dist.py, how do I get around this? apt --fix-broken install output:  https://pastebin.com/xkrEPTKY
[23:28] <bumblefuzz> when I do "netstat -tulpn" I see several ports with no process attached
[23:28] <bumblefuzz> how can I find the processes attached?
[23:30] <oerheks> lsof -i :80
[23:31] <genii> ..wel, or whichever port #  or even a wildcard
[23:34] <bumblefuzz> lsof -i :5939 shows nothing
[23:35] <bumblefuzz> ok, a couple of the listening ports come up
[23:35] <bumblefuzz> but several do not
[23:35] <bumblefuzz> ...despite listening as indicated by "netstat -tulpn"
[23:36] <oerheks> teamviewer most likely
[23:37] <oerheks> TeamViewer remote desktop protocol uses ports 5938/TCP, 5939/TCP, 5353/UDP
[23:41] <bumblefuzzz> good eye
[23:41] <bumblefuzzz> it was teamviewer
[23:42] <oerheks> :-)
[23:46] <warsoul> just did upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
[23:46] <warsoul> and im getting this error
[23:46] <bumblefuzzz> also, my system just seizes up occasionally... how do I view live logs to see what's causing this?
[23:46] <bumblefuzzz> usually it resumes after 10-15 seconds
[23:47] <bumblefuzzz> but I don't know why
[23:47] <warsoul> ./ircd
[23:47] <warsoul> ./ircd: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[23:50] <oerheks> how did you install ircd? .. it might not be part of the upgrade, reinstall?
[23:51] <yurtan> I want to run "disk usage analyser" as an administrator. I think I use `gksudo [application_name]`? But how do I find out what the application name is?
[23:54] <oerheks> current in gnome is baobab
[23:55] <yurtan> oerheks wtf lol, I've been autocompleting gnome-disk*, disk*. I would have never got it! Thanks :D
[23:55] <craigbass76> Anyone got recommendations on a fairly cheap scanner/printer that will scan to a network location (via ssh, smb, whatever) fairly easily? I've got an ubuntu web server at work, and need something simple for our forklift driver to be able to scan our vendors' delivery tickets with just a button or two press.
[23:59] <craigbass76> I can get the kyocera we have now to do it, but it's like ten button presses.
