[00:25] zdorovo: s/should/shows/ [00:52] pavlos: I'm running wavemon now. what info did you want to see? [00:53] avg sig is -56dBm, tx-power is 22dBm, rx rate is 54 MBit/s [00:53] pavlos: i agree though, i'm starting to think the channel width is not really the problem... [00:54] pavlos: so now I'm back to not really knowing why my wifi is so slow [00:54] zdorovo: my link quality is about 90% and signal level -50 dBm [00:55] aha, my link quality is 77% and signal level is 056dBm [00:55] -56dBm [00:55] zdorovo: these look good [00:57] maybe reset your modem if you encounter unlogical speed isues. [00:57] zdorovo: maybe change channel, you may get interference from overlapping wifi [01:00] hmmmmm i just realized i had "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1" in my iwlwifi.conf file and apparently that disables 802.11ac as well in newer kernels [01:00] see: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Iwlwifi [01:01] I set it to 0 instead and now I'm gonna try restarting my laptop [01:03] sweet jesus, it worked [01:03] speedtest.net results jumped from 15Mbps to 207Mbps lol [01:04] ty everyone for your moral support [01:06] :-) [01:08] zdorovo: outstanding !! [01:27] Hifolks, I've ont used Ubuntu for a couple of years, so snaps are new to me. I just installed Atom editor and can't seem to work out how to `atom file.txt` from a shell. Is this possible with flatpack software? [01:27] s/snaps/flatpaks/ [01:30] I think flatpak things are usually gui tools with file-pickers that use 'portals' to open files across the sandboxing [01:31] Maybe a text editor isnt the best thing to flatpak then? [01:31] There is a ppa I can add to install via apt. [01:32] it depends how you use it, I think; a lot of folks using text editors never see command lines [01:32] certainly I couldn't tolerate that :) [01:32] lol [01:32] but some people never leave their IDE [01:32] Right, IDE - not text editor [01:33] I'm only a lowly sysadmin :) === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [01:58] hello. I'm unable to mount my external hard drive for some reason--I mount it, but when I look at the mount point, it is empty, and when I issue "mount", I don't see it listed at all. [01:59] Roey: how're you mounting it? [01:59] Roey: check dmesg, it's possible an error message was printed there === don`t_try_newbie is now known as don`t_try_babie [02:01] [591670.888179] systemd-fstab-generator[726983]: Failed to create unit file /run/systemd/generator/backup.mount, as it already exists. Duplicate entry in /etc/fstab? [02:02] sarnold: this came from dmesg output [02:02] heh, that's an error alright, but I don't think that'd actually interfere with the mount [02:02] matsaman: I'm doing "mount /dev/sdc /backup" [02:02] hello. I'm unable to mount my external hard drive for some reason--I mount it, but when I look at the mount point, it is empty, and when I issue "mount", I don't see it listed at all. [02:02] er [02:02] so *in* that backup.mount, i see this: [02:02] [Mount] [02:02] Where=/backup [02:02] What=/dev/disk/by-uuid/a97c6ad9-8d34-4b05-b709-56a787eb8e82 [02:02] Roey: ordinarily it is partitions you mount (/dev/sdc1, for example), and not devices (/dev/sdc) [02:03] k [02:03] Roey: you can see everything from lsblk -f [02:03] sure [02:03] listen i Think the issue has to do with the UUID. [02:04] because I have both external hard drives' UUIDs in /etc/fstab set to mount to /backup [02:04] I alternate between one and the other every week [02:04] so long as only one is ever mounted at a time that's probably fine [02:04] they're two backup hard drives. [02:04] right [02:04] now, the thing is , if you look up at that backup.mount, you'll notice it specifies a UUID there. [02:04] Roey: UUIDs are stupid, they're non-human-readable [02:04] give them some LABELs [02:05] right. [02:05] anyway I am wondering if that backup.mount is using the wrong UUID [02:05] hmmmmm, maybe that is the cause of the systemd error you pasted though [02:05] it could be [02:05] check lsblk -f [02:05] (but I also don't think that systemd error is what's keeping the mount from working) [02:05] matsaman: er, yeah, see, the UUID from this disk does not match the UUID in backup.mount [02:06] mount LABEL=correctlabelhere /mnt/path should work [02:06] ok. [02:06] and mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/path should work (given device sdc and the first partition) [02:06] that is the simplest test [02:07] there is no /dve/sdc1 [02:07] just /dve/sdc [02:07] I tried /dev/sdc1 and it complained that there is no such partition [02:07] you need to check lsblk -f [02:07] yeah I see that there isn't one [02:08] it's just /dev/sdc [02:08] Roey: you see sda, sdb, and sdc and those are all the devices? You know what sda & sdb are? You're certain sdc is this backup drie? [02:08] drive*? [02:09] if you remove the drive, lsblk -f should no longer list /dev/sdc [02:09] is your other backup drive an identical model, partition scheme, filesystem setup? [02:10] matsaman: yes, the backup drive is on /dev/sdc. [02:10] matsaman: theo ther drive is identical pretty much [02:11] I'm using borg backup on them [02:11] so if you unplug this drive and plug in the other one, what do you see? [02:11] just /dev/sdc ? Or something more? [02:11] matsaman: I did dmesg -w, and in antoher window issued mount /dev/sdc /backup and got this: "EXT4-fs (sdc): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)". Yet it still won't show up in the output of "mount", or even just browsing to that mountpoint. [02:12] matsaman: if I plug in the other one, I'd see /dev/sdc, yeah [02:12] the question is whether you'd see more [02:12] like /dev/sdc1 [02:12] which is what would be ordinary [02:13] listen-- [02:13] I didn't make any partitions on it. [02:13] I just ran ext4.mkfs /dev/sdc. [02:13] done. [02:13] :) [02:13] Roey: did you check in a different shell than the one you used to mount the drive? [02:14] yeah, saw the same thing there. [02:14] Roey: well check the other drive anyway [02:14] it'll tell you if it's a problem unique to one of your drives, or if, instead, it's your system that has changed [02:14] ok [02:14] I'm pretty sure it's the latter [02:14] the latter would be a better problem [02:15] yeah [02:15] a software/configuration problem rather than potentially hardware failure [02:15] I mean the drives are relatively still new [02:15] and I'm assuming they both have approximately the same data [02:15] right [02:29] yo anyone around that can answer a noob question? [02:29] maybe :) [02:30] I want to commit/push stuff to github from my ubuntu machine [02:30] and I have the SSH stuff set up [02:30] but I want to automate it a bit and have ssh-agent run and ssh-add the rsa key [02:30] and I added smth to my .profile [02:32] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/Gach9okn/my%20snip [02:32] this is what's in my .profile [02:32] and the script is literally jsut echoing the password [02:32] now if I log in to my machine and run the script and pipe that to ssh-add it says identity added and everything is gucci [02:33] however whenever I reboot the machine I get an error message [02:34] https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/Ep9lrqTl/error%20message [02:35] so it seems like my stuff is working but this throws an error on startup?? [02:35] and I've tried redirecting the input of the sshaskpass script to /dev/null like the man page suggested and that didn't work and I tried redirecting the stdout of the ssh-add portion to /dev/null and that also failed [02:37] hmm I can't find any bit of that error mess in debian's code search [02:37] that means it's either ubuntu-specific (which is hard to tell) or it's coming from something else.. [02:37] idk if this is relevant but I'm running Ubuntu in Virtual Box [02:37] ? [02:37] oh that's possible their guest additions are funny [02:38] @_@ [02:38] so, I've got a few thoughts .. [02:38] groovy: I wonder if ~/.config/autostart/ would be a better place to refer to it from [02:38] first , this feels like it'd be easier to just take the password off the key [02:38] and skip quite a lot of this :) [02:38] i'm v new to unix/github/command line stuff etc [02:38] groovy: or if you truly only want it when you're using an interactive shell in a terminal window, maybe ~/.bashrc [02:38] matsaman: i had it in .bashrc and it didn't work either so i moved it to profile :< [02:38] second, I thought our desktop environments usually started ssh-agent for you, so I'm surprised you're starting one of your own here [02:39] um I kept running into gnome-keyring-daemon running [02:39] which was causing some kind of issue and a SO/SE post lead me to the if *** fi stuff about ssh-agent over that [02:39] so it could work with pushing github stuff to a remote repo [02:42] yeah, I could believe that; you could probably just remove all the ssh-agent stuff in your config, and if you strip off the password, stuff in the ssh-add command and it might Just Work [02:43] sarnold: yeah I came across smth about removing the passphrase but I guess I just got stubborn on making it work the first way/curious to see if I could make it work [02:44] groovy: one point I'm not sure about -- this is a guess -- but probably the tooling that asks for the ssh key phrase will open a terminal itself when asking for the password. I wouldn't expect that you'd be able to pass in the password via another tool like that. [02:45] idk what i'm doing 100% i just read the manpage for ssh-add saying if SSH_ASKPASS was ssh-add would run the script there [02:46] hah, funny, I never looked into how SSH_ASKPASS actually works :) [02:51] Does anyone know if Blu-Ray playback works in Ubuntu 20.04? I noticed the libbluray1 library is currently not in the repo [02:51] BalooRJ: probably in 'universe' repo [02:52] guess i'll just remove the password and write a script to start ssh-agent and ssh-add teh rsa key [02:53] BalooRJ: it's packaged in focal https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libbluray [02:53] groovy: I still think starting the ssh-agent yourself isn't necessary [02:53] sarnold: Thanks I see its called libbluray2 now [02:54] groovy: might ask #bash or #linux [02:54] groovy: about the original issue [03:46] ubuntu 20.04 in terminal says 2 packages can be "upgraded" but when i search google returns either upgrade the os or update files. why is terminal saying upgrade? [03:46] or simply what is the command to upgrade these 2 packages [03:47] matsaman: yeah idk it's just weird i guess [03:47] i just wrote a bash script for ssh-add and put it in .bashrc [03:48] and when i open a bash shell it shows the output and then user@machine [03:48] but when i run ssh-add -l [03:49] it says no identities added T_T [03:49] and then if i run the script manually.... it works and ssh-add -l shows the key [03:51] xbfrog: Show the channel in a pastebin ' sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ' so we see what you see. [03:51] ok thanks [03:54] is there a way to tell `apt-get source` to not patch it? [03:55] I guess I can just download and extract it === Mibixy is now known as Mibix [04:10] my husband seems to have lost or forgotten whatever program he was using to see photographs on the SD card. He's using ubuntu 18.04 again. [04:11] i'm not even sure his computer is seeing the card. [04:11] shotwell maybe? [04:12] hmmm [04:12] if you open Files the external storage should come up in the left pane with a little eject button at the right end of it [04:12] lovely [04:13] i was using lshw which gives too much and not enough [04:14] you can also look under /media/your-username-here and any automatically mounted external storage should be there, one directory per mount [04:15] and if you want more trouble instead of less, there are ways to mount it with the card still in the camera [06:03] hello [06:06] why always restarts? [06:07] cause kernel update okay === jelly-home is now known as jelly [06:54] Syndrom: unless you use Livepatch === anik__ is now known as anik [06:55] Syndrom: Livepatch is for LTS releases only afaik [06:56] https://ubuntu.com/security/livepatch [07:28] I use tweaks or `setxkbmap -device 3 -option ctrl:nocaps,compose:rctrl` to disable capslock and relocate the compose key. Now after a while these settings are undone somehow. It started after playing around with some other ibus input methods (like m17n). I removed all of the input methods again, but still see the reset happening once in a while. Any ideas? (20.04.1 LTS) [07:29] That is in the same session, while typing (not after relogin). [07:38] who manages debs, that I download and install manually? E.g. if I download the latest libre office and install it (about 20 - 30 debs) and then I install libre office from the repos, does the installation process knows it's the same software and cleans up the firstly installed version? [07:39] DarkTrick, it'll depend on how packaged, if the packager has built it only for Ubuntu use, it'll likely know & cope well, if built for debian/ubuntu/... it'll likely not be customized to run on any well & it's up to the installer/operator themselves to manage [07:40] * guiverc not just Ubuntu; to cope properly they'd need to package a focal version groovy version, bionic version etc.... [07:41] and most 3rd party packagers don't do that [07:42] My concern is, that if I install the latest version of libre office (e.g. for helping them test), that I gradually end up trashing my harddisk because apt/dpkg doesn't know what belongs together and... me as a user even less. [07:43] *always install the latest versions [07:43] (This of course holds true for other alpha/beta SW as well.) [07:44] DarkTrick, testing is best done on test boxes; not your primary/workhorse box. (says me who does tests on this box; but I've other boxes I can use; plus this is dual boot with bionic if I need it) [07:45] guiverc, I understand the point, but it's no help regarding the concern :) [07:46] I thought I'd answered that. To be safe for a Ubuntu focal system, it needs to be packaged only for Ubuntu focal. Also a different package for my groovy system, for bionic users etc... Most 3rd party test software is packaged for everyone thus may conflict with your default packages; thus my testbox suggestion [07:47] my 2c [08:14] DarkTrick: if you install .deb packages, all the information goes into the same system database (stored in /var/lib/dpkg/) [08:14] DarkTrick: the debs are replaced cleanly unless there's a packaging bug somewhere (which you'll notice because apt will complain loudly) [08:14] DarkTrick: so as long as the package _names_ match, you should be fine [08:15] DarkTrick: you can always check if you have any deb packages installed without matching versions in the ubuntu archive if you want to be sure to return your system to a clean state [08:15] (if only I remembered what that command was...) [08:16] (I use apt-show-versions|grep "No available version in archive", but there's a nicer, more modern way) [08:29] Hi [08:30] hey [08:30] Sup [08:30] nothing much listening to a podcast and awaits an online conference that starts again in 1 hour and 15 minutes [08:32] Cool [08:33] Sooo are you into rpg text stories on the phone (nlp say no more...) [08:34] nope [08:34] How about if theres pictures [08:35] nah not really my thing [08:36] Nice, but cool ... errr and your thing... [08:40] lol I did a firmware update from snap-store and now the uefi bios doesn't see grub as a boot option but goes directly into the windows bood manager [08:42] Soooo stories: "I had a story told to me...", a pirate with a peg leg and an eyepatch trailed off in a crowded coffie shop. The coffie shop had just one window showing a bustling metropolis and an occasional flying car. [08:43] Boot repair - reinstall grub [08:47] There's a flash disk to download [08:57] Bood repair sorry [09:08] how does one tell grub to use a particular grub.cfg at the grub command prompt? [09:08] configfile (hd1,gpt5)/boot/grub/grub.cfg it is [09:13] mgedmin: not sure if this is helpfull, but maybe something usefull here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot [09:13] !rootirc | unknwn1 [09:13] unknwn1: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. [09:15] lotuspsychje: that is cool; it's what I do already for my rescue USB, but I didn't know about this wiki page [09:16] minutestory.org [09:16] yeah sometimes users ask alternate methods when they dont have usb/cd media [09:16] nms: not here please [09:17] Ok [09:19] welp! ubuntu 20.04/gedit 3.36.2: i use default dark colorscheme (dark background, white font color) but somehow current active line is now highlighted in white too @.@ what did i press, why and how can i undo that mess? ^^; [09:19] i've installed ubuntu 20.04 on my laptop and am getting black screen after login (disk unlock and login screen work). tried setting "nomodeset" in grub as per some askubuntu replies, doesn't seem to help. live usb works fine [09:20] okay grub-install seems to've fixed the efi boot vars [09:20] bumbar: can you switch to text login (ctrl+alt+f5 e.g.) and login there? [09:20] mgedmin: : ) [09:21] now to go back into the uefi setup and reenable secure boot [09:21] speaking of, how can I install grub into an usb drive so it boots with secure boot enabled? [09:22] let me call eric, he's our uefi wizard [09:22] can I have shim chain-boot into grub? do I have to sign something with the MOK? [09:23] nuala, yeah if i do it before logging in in X. can also ssh [09:23] mgedmin: Hmm I thought the bootable USB install images worked with UEFI Secure Boot by default? I swear they do when created with the Startup Disk Creator, at least. [09:24] EriC^^: speaking of, how can I install grub into an usb drive so it boots with secure boot enabled? [09:24] yes, but I want to have multiple ISO images on the USB drive and choose between then from the grub menu [09:24] which is more or less the same technique as described in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot [09:24] and it works great, when I have secure boot disabled [09:24] oh, there are some multi usb tools for that [09:25] mgedmin: the initial grub that's booting use shimx64.efi instead of grubx64.efi [09:27] oh yeah that makes sense [09:33] bumbar: try another WM to further locate the issue? [09:35] i've install nvidia driver 455 and it seems to work now [09:36] spoke too soon, but at least i can login now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [09:38] guiverc, mgedmin Thank you for clearing up. I understand "it depends". [09:39] Sad, but apparently not enough people bother [09:40] bumbar: ¯_(シ)_\/¯ [09:52] I can't find a shimx64.efi anywhere on the ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso [09:54] unless it's /mnt/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI [09:54] but the sha256sum doesn't match /usr/lib/shim/shimx64.efi.signed [09:57] ~, [09:57] ~, [10:00] Hi folks I hope y'all doing goodie! QQ - how does Ubuntu handle Nvidia drivers in Optimus setups nowadays? Is bumblebee+bbswitch+primus still "an option" for users, or is it full modesetting+glvnd? How do users typically start their apps on the dGPU? Thanks in advance :-) [10:01] (while typing the lines I realized I should probably just read the docs...) [10:01] Cheaterman: bumblebee is outdated, installing your nvidia driver is enough to get it all [10:01] where is the default ntp server configured? Currently I have in the logs: [10:01] systemd-timesyncd[664]: Synchronized to time server 91.189.89.198:123 (ntp.ubuntu.com) [10:01] I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS [10:01] Cheaterman: in nvidia-settings you can switch between powersaving - performance mode with optimus then [10:02] lotuspsychje: yeah but I mean if you want the offloading to work you gotta set the env vars __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 and __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia right? [10:02] lotuspsychje: how do users typically handle that [10:03] Cheaterman: if offloading doesnt work by default, you might wanna try the drivers from the ubuntu graphics ppa/latest for your card [10:04] !nvidia [10:04] For nvidia and matrox graphics cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto . For AMD/ATI graphics cards, see « /msg ubottu ati » and « /msg ubottu fglrxmissing » For the latest Nvidia drivers see https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [10:05] lotuspsychje: I clicked that last link, bumblebee is in it [10:05] Cheaterman: yeah but bumblebee is not what you want anymore [10:05] I generally agree that bumblebee is outdated, and I got things working here with modesetting, I was just wondering how Ubuntu users do it, because I didn't find documentation online about the env vars (other than the official nvidia changelog... which isn't ideal) [10:06] (I'm not a Ubuntu user myself, I'm asking out of curiosity) [10:08] Side-question would be about power draw and GPU clocks when on battery/AC, I noticed weird things here ; but first things first I'm wondering how Ubuntu users enable offloading to the nvidia GPU, given the env vars aren't really documented [10:19] heh, my ubuntu is very smart. I turned it off with Suspend and it wakes up whenever I turn on the fan in the room. How does it do that?! [10:24] hackinghorn: maybe there's a piece of something on the touchpad and the air flow is letting it move a little? [10:25] EriC^^, hmm that might be right [10:25] or maybe the mousepad or mouse move a little [10:25] or maybe you're haunted :P [10:30] lol yee === PowerTower_121 is now known as PowerTower_120 [10:57] Hi, i need help in setting up the unattended-upgrades [10:58] They don't run on the machine [10:58] I have in file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades: [10:59] APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1"; [10:59] APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1"; [10:59] APT::Periodic::Download-Upgradeable-Packages "1"; [11:00] mystiquewolf: what does "systemctl status unattended-upgrades.service" give?

See also https://www.ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle [11:53] (and please ignore ubottu for now) [11:53] he's tripping out [11:53] ... other than for the YY.MM hint [11:53] tomreyn 20.04 lts i think [11:54] lsb_release -ds or Settings -> Details should tell you what you run# [11:55] i'm not sure about the nautilus-actions situation in 20.04 LTS, i'll see if i can find anything about it. [11:56] ok but can i add any other way to rightclick run script === auosun8 is now known as auosun [11:57] on video minetypes [11:58] if i make a .desktop and put it in local/shared/applications but duno how to add it to right click for all videos [12:00] hmm, you could certainly define an "open with" target by having a desktop file which states that your script can handle the given mime type [12:00] !info nautilus-extension-fma [12:00] nautilus-extension-fma (source: filemanager-actions): Nautilus extension to allow user-defined file-manager actions.

Unfortunately, there is no loopback.cfg file that allows the system to boot directly from the ISO image (through grub2).Will this be permanent?

[13:00] Gnjurac: try subdownloader from the repos [13:01] /usr/bin/python3 would likely run into problems trying to run python2 code, yes [13:01] runing it with python3 OpenSubDL form terminal works no problem [13:01] so dont think that is an issue === rexbinary_ is now known as rexbinary [13:13] Who wants to become a millionaire ?

It's no longer possible to **permanently** display hidden files anymore. [13:47] aarnet Is Australia's education mirror its used for scientific research and for hell of a lot of research it surprising its down so often lately, its default for a lot of distros [13:47] Upon a reboot, Gnome 3 no longer displays hidden files.

[13:48] That's what I did [13:48] After a reboot, it defaults back to false [13:53] hi, after 3/4 incremantal backup with tar, it says the directory are renamed and make a like a full backup. I do not understant [14:01] hello all, can anyone tell me why secure boot keeps turning itself back on after some time on my hp laptop [14:01] oerheks: it is unbelieveable, that one can't have multiple mirrors set in parallel like mageia/mandrake and i also think centos do [14:02] grinchier: next time don't buy HP :D sorry couldn't resist [14:02] if i remember, you have to confirm to disable secureboot [14:03] maybe the bios battery is empty [14:03] it stays disabled for like a week. then turns back on [14:03] hmm i usually keep it plugged in.

[14:04] i have to disable secure boot for my wifi to work [14:04] grinchier: please explain further, i see no connection between secureboot and wifi at all [14:05] it doesn't have drivers. i found on google i had to use a method to install special drivers that are not signed [14:06] there ar MOK utils to make it happen [14:06] it is actually my sisters pc and my niece is using it for school. they are bringing it over later i can't remember the wifi model [14:06] !info mokutil [14:06] mokutil (source: mokutil): tools for manipulating machine owner keys.
