[01:26] <jayjo> is there a way to tell what device file is represented by an `lsusb` entry?
[01:27] <jayjo> In my case, I'm trying to figure out what usb serial connection I can use with `avrdude`, but this comes up for me other times when I'm connecting smartcard readers or other usb converters
[01:29] <sarnold> jayjo: this feels like something to tie together with udev's persistant device naming support
[01:47] <jayjo> I think that's what I need, thanks!
[01:48] <jayjo> I'm trying to test a few rules, because using "-P usb" as a port wasn't working https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/man1/avrdude.1.html
[01:48] <jayjo> not sure if it assumes a /dev file for the port
[02:38] <jayjo> in "avrdude", could "port" be a DOS or Windows term? Does it just mean device file? I have a serial device connected over USB that I'm trying to access, and using "-P /dev/serial/by-id/usb-...." gives me "avrdude: Error: Invalid port specification for USB device"
[02:38] <jayjo> I can connect to that serial device with screen
[02:58] <jayjo> looks like /dev/port is an option sometimes: https://tldp.org/HOWTO/IO-Port-Programming-2.html
[10:20] <hwpplayer1> hi people!
[10:22] <hwpplayer1> do you have any suggestions for a server infrastructure design ?
[10:23] <hwpplayer1> As i understand, one playground livepatch server and clones, one LDAP and clones, it goes like that
[10:23] <hwpplayer1> like dominoes i install more applications
[13:06] <RoyK> hwpplayer1: building a server is like building a house - there are different types depending on needs, so please specify
[13:07] <hwpplayer1> RoyK: Thanks for answering
[13:08] <hwpplayer1> RoyK: One playground for kernel patch service, development machines with or without GPU, LDAP, File servers, Git, Media(live stream) and goes on
[19:19] <Minall> Hello Ubuntu Community!... Where can I find a list of installable snaps for my server environments?
[19:19] <oerheks> snap list
[19:20] <oerheks> if you could not find that, you did not try
[19:20] <Minall> oerheks: I search for 'Ubuntu server snap list' and similar terms like 'Ubuntu Server 20.04 package list, server list, installable packages' etc. But I couldn't find results that show me what packages can be installed in the installation process
[19:21] <oerheks> i think snaps are not part of the install process on server. one could install them after 1st boot.
[19:23] <oerheks> cloud-init and core are installed standard, AFIK
[19:25] <tomreyn> yes, there's a snap install screen at the end of the server (live) installation
[19:25] <oerheks> oh? is this in 20 ?
[19:25] <oerheks> c/20.04
[19:25] <tomreyn> in 20.04 LTS, yes. maybe 18.04 LTS, too, not sure.

[19:28] <tomreyn> https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/step-by-step#Snaps
[19:29] <oerheks> there you go, Minall
[19:40] <tomreyn> https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/subiquity/ is the source code if you'd like to work out how the installer filters 'popular snaps in server environments' off the list retrieved from snapcraft.io
[20:29] <hwpplayer1> tomreyn: It says Issues while validating snapcraft.yaml: could not find expected ':' on line 45, column 11
[20:30] <hwpplayer1> But there is : char
[20:41] <hwpplayer1> i'll be back in 10 minutes
[20:43] <hwpplayer1> i'm back
[23:33] <grendal-prime> anyone here ever use pfsense or opensense
[23:46] <tomreyn> there are better platforms for online polls than IRC
[23:47] <tomreyn> (maybe you meant to ask a different question)
