| Sven_vB | tomreyn, I'll try that, thanks! | 00:20 |
| Sven_vB | I even tried that a few weeks ago, unfortunately I didn't save the results. :| | 00:21 |
| Sven_vB | ah I remember now, I didn't like that approach because I'd have to modify a central file instead of using a drop-in file. | 00:24 |
| Sven_vB | I'll try anyway, just to complete my lab notes. | 00:25 |
| tomreyn | Sven_vB: there's /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/ | 00:26 |

| Mibix | so did mysql change service names or something when updating to 20.04 | 00:48 |
| Mibix | sudo apt-get install mysql cant locate the package | 00:57 |
| tomreyn | i don't think there ever was a package named "mysql", was there? | 00:58 |
| tomreyn | you probably want either mysql-client" or "mysql-server" or both. those may be versioend, too | 00:58 |
| matsaman | mariadb-server | 01:01 |
| Mibix | you are right tomreyn its mysql-server | 01:04 |

| Intelo | My usb web cam's light just turned onn. I am not using any app to share video. How can I check whats doing this? | 01:07 |
| rk4 | so if gnome is in snap in 20.04, what is this package - 'gnome (1:3.30+2) [universe]', is it packaged in both traditional apt-getable form /and/ snap? | 01:09 |
| Mibix | heh tomreyn here is the log if you have any ideas :D https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/rFB2p6KWMy/ | 01:11 |
| Mibix | unknown variable 'query_cache_type=1' | 01:12 |
| tomreyn | rk4: i think you're mistaken about gnome(-shell) moving to snap, if you were referring to the default ubuntu desktop environment. | 01:14 |
| tomreyn | Mibix: mysql options can change across versions, that's what release notes and migration guides are good for | 01:15 |

| bumblefuzz | so, I just set up a new server | 02:21 |
| rk4 | high five! | 02:21 |
| bumblefuzz | and made the ssh login key only | 02:21 |
| rk4 | is this story going to end with 'i cant login' | 02:21 |
| bumblefuzz | quite the opposite | 02:21 |
| bumblefuzz | I moved the key pair on my client machine | 02:22 |
| bumblefuzz | and tried to log in and it worked | 02:22 |
| rk4 | is there more | 02:22 |
| bumblefuzz | no | 02:22 |
| CarlFK | guess #2: I can't sudo | 02:22 |
| rk4 | well my story time! | 02:22 |
| bumblefuzz | no, I still have the key pair | 02:22 |
| rk4 | i setup a server, set sshd to allow key only logins, and then i tried to login and it worked :) | 02:23 |
| bumblefuzz | I should only be able to log into the remote host with the correct key pa | 02:23 |
| bumblefuzz | pair* | 02:23 |
| rk4 | keep going | 02:23 |
| bumblefuzz | but if I moved the key pair to a different folder, why is it still able to log in? | 02:23 |
| rk4 | is it stored in an ssh-agent or similar construct | 02:23 |
| CarlFK | um.. you don't move "pair" | 02:23 |
| bumblefuzz | the key pair on my client is not in the .ssh folder | 02:24 |
| CarlFK | keep your private key on the client you are logging in from. | 02:24 |
| bumblefuzz | I have 2 files, the private and public keys, stored in ~/.ssh | 02:24 |
| CarlFK | there is a .ssh on both the client and the server | 02:25 |
| bumblefuzz | I have the public key in the ~/.ssh folder on the server | 02:25 |
| bumblefuzz | but it must be checked against the private key in the ~/.ssh folder on my client, correct? | 02:26 |
| CarlFK | good. that should let you log in. (but not sudo, which you might care about) | 02:26 |
| CarlFK | yep | 02:26 |
| bumblefuzz | but ONLY if I have the key pair in the ~/.ssh folder on my client | 02:26 |
| bumblefuzz | if I move the key pair on the client, it should not log in, correct? | 02:26 |
| rk4 | well, isn't it also in the ssh-agent process.. | 02:26 |
| CarlFK | na, you don't need the public key on your client | 02:26 |
| bumblefuzz | I don't know | 02:27 |
| rk4 | pass lots of -v options to your ssh command and see what it says | 02:27 |
| bumblefuzz | I moved the key pair to a different folder, expecting it not to log in... and it logged in | 02:27 |
| rk4 | my guess is its grabbing the key from the agent | 02:27 |
| rk4 | another possibility is connection multiplexing, but agent is more likely | 02:28 |
| CarlFK | btw - check out ssh-copy-id and ssh-import-id - little scripts that take care of moving public keys around | 02:28 |
| bumblefuzz | I don't actually want to move the keys | 02:29 |
| bumblefuzz | I was just trying to check the config | 02:29 |
| bumblefuzz | if you change the password, its easy to tell if the password is changed | 02:30 |
| bumblefuzz | but if it's key login, it just logs in... so, I can't tell if I just configured it wrong or if it's using the correct key | 02:30 |
| rk4 | ssh -v -v -v and pastebin what it says... | 02:31 |
| rk4 | censor the sensitive bits, if there are any | 02:32 |
| bumblefuzz | found this: Will attempt key: user@archibald RSA SHA256:blahblahblah agent | 02:32 |
| bumblefuzz | it seems to look in the folder and not find the key though | 02:32 |
| bumblefuzz | then that attempt pops up | 02:33 |
| rk4 | what does 'ssh-add -l' say | 02:33 |
| bumblefuzz | it lists the key from above | 02:34 |
| bumblefuzz | is that the agent? | 02:34 |
| rk4 | see 'man ssh-add' and look for the -l option, then also see 'man ssh-agent' | 02:37 |
| bumblefuzz | ok, it's using the agent | 02:38 |
| bumblefuzz | even with the files in the correct location | 02:38 |
| bumblefuzz | it's still using the agent | 02:38 |
| rk4 | you could kill the agent, flush the agent of identities, or pass ssh a flag to not use the agent | 02:38 |
| rk4 | that will help demonstrate the hypothesis that the agent is why the file location isn't mattering | 02:39 |
| bumblefuzz | I've always just used 'ssh user@10.10.10.10' to connect | 02:40 |
| bumblefuzz | I don't really know that much about using ssh other than that | 02:40 |
| bumblefuzz | I just started making sure the file permissions on host and client are set correctly | 02:40 |
| bumblefuzz | what else should I worry about for good practices? | 02:40 |
| rk4 | 'good practices' are mostly just opinions, 2FA might be appropriate, i use firewall rules extensively to limit who can reach sshd at all | 02:42 |
| bumblefuzz | yeah, I use static IP's and set ufw to allow only the admin IP to port 22 | 02:43 |
| GBGames | I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS. My router has a static IP for my desktop, and I have a docker container that I want to address using a different hostname. I setup my router so that the hostname points to my desktop's IP currently, but I plan to change it in the future. Everything works mostly fine, except when I reboot my Ubuntu machine. My network settings say that I'm using "Wired connection 1" which shows a DNS address that matches the | 02:50 |
| GBGames | router, but when I try to reference the hostname, I see "Could not resolve host: gbinfra" | 02:50 |
| GBGames | If I click on "eth0", then click back to "Wired connection 1", suddenly gbinfra is accessible. I am not sure what to look for to figure out how to get it to work upon a reboot, though. Any ideas? | 02:51 |

| Ether_Man | Hey so I want to make an install from liveusb. I want to install on ZFS, but I don't want to split boot and root, nor do I want a swap partition. (or an efi partition if that can be avoided but I'm kind of guessing it's not). Using the installer's default for full disk, I get all of these, but doing a manual partition setup, I don't even see ZFS in the dropdown. Can it only be used with that default layout? | 05:17 |
| wyoung | Ether_Man: You might want to check if grub supports booting off zfs | 05:21 |
| Ether_Man | wyoung: It works to boot when selecting to use the whole disk as zfs with the default layout... | 05:21 |
| Ether_Man | I just don't want to have 3 gig boot partition where 50 megs is being used... Nor do I want a 3gig swap partition. I'm really limited on space on this thing and I really can't afford such waste on it. | 05:22 |
| Ether_Man | Guess I'll try with btrfs instead. That also supports compression after all | 05:33 |
| rk4 | yeah about btrfs and compression... | 05:35 |
| Ether_Man | What about it? | 05:37 |
| rk4 | https://wiki.debian.org/Btrfs#Other_Warnings | 05:37 |
| rk4 | ZFS was buggy for a number of years too in Solaris, so it's par for the course in complex software | 05:39 |
| Ether_Man | The only warning there for compress is outdated and applied to multidisk setups, not single disk. Besides, I don't particularly care about any data on there as such. It's all just temporary anyway so unless it's bad enough that I have to reinstall every day or week or so... It's fine. | 05:40 |

| Keetz | How do I fix snaps not installing because of xz compression in ubuntu 20.04? https://pasteboard.co/JuOSBC3.png | 08:40 |
| oerheks | Keetz, interesting, file a bugreport? | 08:45 |
| Keetz | oerheks, i haven't yet | 08:45 |
| Keetz | I tried completely purging snapd and the software center... Now i re-installed snapd but can't install the snap-store because the problem still exists | 08:46 |
| Keetz | Unfortunately 20.04 Gnome has been so frustrating for me :/ gnome-shell crashing after every screen lock... alsa/pulseaudio constantly screws up my audio and only allows playing through HDMI instead of my audio port... And now snaps stopped working out of the blue because of filesystem compression | 08:54 |
| TJ- | Keetz: re: Pulseaudio - that is not usually PA's fault; the default audio sink is ALSA device index 0, and in your case I'd bet that the HDMI audio sink is index 0. There are well-proven cofig changes to deal with that. | 08:56 |
| Keetz | TJ-, i don't think that it is just defaulting to HDMI, it simply ONLY allows HDMI, even though I was just listening through my headphones... This usually also happens after a suspend or lock | 08:57 |
| TJ- | Keetz: as for Gnome; use an alternate Desktop Environment - I dumped Gnome 10 years ago becauce it dumbs down and obscures or obstructs functionality in many areas. I use XFCE4 (xubuntu-desktop) | 08:57 |
| TJ- | Keetz: ahhh... if suspend/resume then that is more than likely due to a faulty ACPI firmware of the PC itself, for which there is a workaround that often helps, acpi_osi (where we have Linux pretend to be Windows). Workaround here: https://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html | 08:58 |
| Keetz | TJ-, interesting | 09:00 |
| Keetz | Gonna be interesting to see if that fixes my audio issue, thanks TJ- | 09:03 |
| TJ- | Keetz: if not, then next step is to compare the kernel log from a cold (power -ff) boot and after a resume from suspend to identify potential clues | 09:04 |

| ioria | MacGregor, you know how the 'gsettings' cmd ? | 15:37 |
| tomreyn | MacGregor: the css approach will prevent *any* notifications from any application. is this what you want (I assume not)? | 15:37 |
| ioria | MacGregor, you know how 'to use' the 'gsettings' cmd ? | 15:37 |
| MacGregor | tomreyn: Yeah, just thought about that, not a good idea methinks | 15:37 |
| MacGregor | leden: Yes, that still shows the popup though | 15:38 |
| ioria | MacGregor, there are 2 settings : org.gnome.nautilus.preferences org.gnome.gedit.plugins.filebrowser.nautilus must be set to 'false' | 15:38 |
| MacGregor | ioria: I haven't used that command in a while but willing to learn if it does what I want | 15:38 |
| oerheks | gsettings on cli, or install dconf-editor | 15:39 |
| oerheks | (GUI) | 15:39 |
| ioria | MacGregor, clse nautilus; gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.preferences confirm-trash false ; gsettings set org.gnome.gedit.plugins.filebrowser.nautilus confirm-trash false ; open again nautilus | 15:39 |
| tomreyn | MacGregor: from what i read online, there's no way to suppress specific notifications such as the one you mentioned, yet. | 15:40 |
| oerheks | good spot, ioria , could not find it on askubuntu | 15:40 |
| MacGregor | Oohhh, dconf editor.. I like! Found some other nice things there like "always use location entry" - this keeps me from having to CTRL+L in Nautilus | 15:43 |
| MacGregor | ioria: confirm-trash only asks if you want to empty the trash. | 15:45 |
| MacGregor | tomreyn: That's what I was afraid of. Will have to change my habits and thoughts, no problem. Thank you | 15:45 |
| MacGregor | dconf-editor is quite handy | 15:46 |
| MacGregor | I'm assuming we no longer need gconf-editor, I think that was for gnome 2.x | 15:47 |
| oerheks | it still works, for gnome3 | 15:47 |
| MacGregor | Ah, ok | 15:48 |
| MacGregor | I'm loving Ubuntu 20.04 | 15:48 |
| MacGregor | tomreyn: Also, that CSS change is theme-specific | 15:52 |
| MacGregor | Not doing that as it acts as you said | 15:52 |

| egrain | is snap the way you are supposed to install stuff now? | 16:21 |
| strive | I use snap as a backup in case apt doesn't have the package I need. | 16:22 |
| MacGregor | egrain: I use apt, I'm not using snap until it's actually required system-wide | 16:22 |
| egrain | well, let's say i'm a girl and i like to click on icons. would i install it via snap even though i didn't know what snap even was when using ubuntu 20.04? | 16:23 |
| MacGregor | If apt doesn't have the package I need I'll change apps before I use snap | 16:23 |
| egrain | so snap is amazing. i get it. | 16:24 |
| nascentmind | Hi. Why doesn't Ubuntu fonts have all the different weights of a font. For eg Inconsolata has many font weights but there is only 2-3 weights of that font. | 16:24 |
| MacGregor | Well, snap won't harm the system.. or it wouldn't be included. I've just been using Linux since 1999 and I see snap as a newcomer that needs more research before I switch | 16:25 |
| egrain | didn't answer my question though. anyway, doesn't work anymore anyway. "unable to install inkscape. cannot perform the following tasks:" | 16:26 |
| MacGregor | egrain: I installed inkscape with apt on Ubuntu 20.04 - no issues | 16:27 |
| egrain | i didn't know you set snap traps for girls. | 16:27 |
| egrain | if i had installed it, i would have used apt-get. | 16:27 |
| egrain | she didn't know. now it freezes. | 16:27 |
| MacGregor | apt-get should work too | 16:27 |
| egrain | well, now she can't reinstall it actually. | 16:27 |
| MacGregor | Remove the snap package and use apt-get install inkscape? | 16:28 |

| weretav1a | After switching to nvidia driver, I get no desktop on boot. I was able to get desktop back by restoring a backup of an old xorg.conf but I believe I need to generate a new xorg.conf to properly use the driver. Is there some way to generate a new one automatically? | 19:56 |
| genii | !xorgconf | 19:57 |
| ubottu | The /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is deprecated, but sometimes may still be needed to pass values to specific drivers. See `man xorg.conf` for file structure and syntax. For Ubuntu-specific documentation and more information, see also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config | 19:57 |
| weretav1a | Well if I just delete it that does not get me a desktop either. What is the up to date way to not use Xorg.conf (believe me, I would love to not deal with it) | 19:59 |
| weretav1a | are there many places I need to search and destroy these files so that the automatic configuration can work? | 20:01 |
| matsaman | weretav1a: if you dpkg -L the nvidia driver package, sometimes it comes with a script to crap out xorg.conf contents | 20:04 |
| matsaman | dpkg -L nvidiawhatevs | grep -i bin | 20:04 |
| weretav1a | matsaman: to understand, so we want there to still exist an xorg.conf file somewhere on the system, in general, or not? | 20:10 |
| weretav1a | do we want* | 20:10 |
| matsaman | weretav1a: so for most devices everything "just works" without making your own config | 20:12 |
| matsaman | for the minority that don't 'just work', you put configs in a place other than xorg.conf | 20:12 |
| matsaman | xorg.conf.d | 20:12 |
| matsaman | IIRC you can still use xorg.conf if you want, though | 20:13 |
| matsaman | but if you can find nvidia's config generator script, you should be able to put its output in either location, most likely | 20:13 |
| weretav1a | I don't want, unless that's the only way. | 20:13 |
| matsaman | well if you have the config generator, and it can make you a config that allows your X to work, that would be a pretty simple path forward | 20:13 |
| matsaman | otherwise I would try nouveau first, instead of nvidia's own proprietary driver, unless you have some reason to do otherwise | 20:14 |
| weretav1a | the system manufacturer only claims to support proprietary | 20:14 |
| matsaman | sure, but does the system manufacturer claim to support the OS you're using? | 20:15 |
| weretav1a | I see in /etc/X11 the xorg.conf and some backups I made, I don't currently see xorg.conf.d there, is this located somewhere else? | 20:15 |
| matsaman | yes they're different locations | 20:15 |
| weretav1a | yes, it is a "system76", which is Linux specific, from what i'm told ;p | 20:15 |
| matsaman | /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ maybe | 20:15 |
| matsaman | doesn't really matter, you're getting support from #ubuntu, not system76 | 20:16 |
| weretav1a | is there some list of every possible place that X is going to search for these files? | 20:16 |
| matsaman | nouveau will generally be less trouble, if it doesn't utterly fail to be compatible | 20:16 |
| matsaman | I'm sure there's a list somewhere, but those should be the only two places of note | 20:16 |
| weretav1a | yeah theres a whole bunch of them in that folder | 20:17 |
| weretav1a | which I never touched | 20:17 |
| matsaman | probably came with Ubuntu, then | 20:18 |
| weretav1a | should I try to rename everything .conf.bak? | 20:18 |
| matsaman | weretav1a: probably not, but you can if you want | 20:22 |
| matsaman | weretav1a: worst that will happen is something to do with X will change its behavior/break | 20:22 |
| matsaman | you would only have to put them back and restart X to restore it | 20:22 |
