[03:10] i change on this --->> /etc/default/locale [03:12] that file is automatically generated by update-locale, which is called by apt.

[04:04] this is for the rtl8812au package in the ubuntu repositories, correct? [04:20] so if a driver shows up on 'dkms status' but not on lsmod, what does that mean? [04:24] Hi there everyone, I hope that everyone is staying safe during this pandemic. I have a little bit of an issue that I've been trying to solve for over a week now to no-avail and I'm being really stubborn and don't want to resort to reinstalling although it seems like this may be my only next option. Ever since the last Ubuntu update my keyboard and [04:24] mouse do not work on my laptop in the login screen. I am unable to log in or to even move the cursor around. I have gone into the recovery mode and have tried everything I can think of to fix this issue and have searched far and wide for solutions. I've tried to completely remove and reinstall xorg and the inputs I have done the apt-upgrade and [04:24] apt-update commands. Ive done dpkg and nothing was found. I am just stuck. My keyboard and mouse work perfectly fine in windows and my keyboard works fine in the recovery mode. If anyone has any suggestions or solutions I would really appreciate the help. [04:36] Am I in the right channel for technical issues? [04:40] unholyduckster: You are - I personally - as many others here - have no opinions to offer - patience for one who might :D [04:41] Bashing-om Thanks!

Doesn't work. :( [07:45] Any idea? === mateen1 is now known as mateen [08:41] ThinkT510: hmmm...OK, that's something I hadn't expected. I mean I understand its cruciality, but I suppose there is some way of forcing a package's uninstallation, another packages installation and change of dependencies in apt, right? Or not? [08:41] Or some other workaround maybe? [09:10] how do I check the link speed of a USB device? [09:15] Hello everyone. [09:17] I am running ubuntu 18.04 KVM guest on oracle cloud, tried to changed the ssh port from default to 2020, then i allowed the port from ufw and open the port for the same from web ports of cloud security for subnets, but i am not able to ssh, even i cannot ssh into localhost [09:17] very strange [09:18] rhct: you should have some firewall on oracle infra side... [09:18] oh you did that too actually [09:18] legreffier : from that i can ssh into port 22, i added another port 2020 and pass it from firewall but not working [09:19] between ssh localhost -p 2020 is also getting refused, thats the different story i believe [09:19] can you pastebin your /etc/sshd_config ? [09:19] yeah [09:19] mamalos: it really depends on exactly which packages are in conflict. you'd need to know which python3 packages came from your custom repo and somehow remove them and make sure the ubuntu packages get installed. I can't think of a clean way to do this. are you using pip as well?

[09:29] sudo apt-get install --reinstall [09:33] Eric thnk you that fik it for me [09:34] Hi everyone! I have a public registered subnet that I'm using to run some KVM-based VMs. Before netplan, I was able to setup a bridge and route the addresses through the host. Since my hoster (Hetzner) does not allow the VMs to leak their mac addresses to the host interface, directly running a bridge is no option (as e.g. suggested by [09:34] https://fabianlee.org/2019/04/01/kvm-creating-a-bridged-network-with-netplan-on-ubuntu-bionic/). So I need to specifically forward and route the VMs subnet through the host interface. Anyone who could assist with that? === _kukacz is now known as kukacz [09:50] fubar35: do you have your previous bridge setup and routing options handy? IMO it would be best trying to recreate the setup via netplan.yaml [09:58] OK, if nothing works, I'll just keep my /home as it is, tar my /etc and format my /, /usr, /etc and install 20.04 from scratch. [09:59] ThinkT510: ^ [09:59] ThinkT510: And I'm using pip, but not system-wide [10:01] so, format it seems that it is...petty, I should have thought of it earlier, before upgrading...

[10:23] Hello, I'm not able to use my nexus-proxy for apt over https. Own signed root and intermediate certs are imported and https is working well with wget or curl in the provided repopath (TLS1.2). Any suggestion? [10:36] A connection request to a repo fails with: Could not handshake: Error in the certificate. [10:42] hello, I need to find out which app is registered for a specific file type in CLI. Using xdg-mime I can query the 'org.alike' name but then I need to find the desktop file and parse it to get the executable name. Is there an utility for that? [10:55] I would expect if the app reads the mime types, it should act that way, right? [10:57] i'm in a bash script, i.e no app [10:58] i can't use xdg-open because input stream is /dev/stdin, i.e no extension [11:32] does 20.04 as well as 20.10 support a 4tb hard drive in sata? [11:38] Hi all [12:10] wonko: hey, if you didn't find the problem yet, it's because of snap confinement: https://snapcraft.io/docs/home-interface === raf is now known as rafael === kukacz is now known as kukacz_ [13:31] Saviq: That should be for snap installed packaged, right? Why would that affect my apt installed shell? [13:34] OH! [13:34] lsd [13:34] is snap installed [13:37] Saviq: is there a workaround for that to give lsd permission to that? [13:37] Now that I know what the issue is it's only a slight inconvenience but still annoying [13:46] wonko, well, it is a security feature, dot files/dirs typically contain sensible data (passwords, urls etc) ... while there is the "personal-files" interface to allow access to such files, the lsd maintainer would have to add one interface for each possible dot file and would have to go through security review for each of them individually ... === privalovy_lekvar is now known as hexic [13:47] ok, so the work around is to ignore it and unalias ls if I absolutely need to. [13:48] although it *can* also be worked around with ls ~/.ssh/* which *does* work (and makes me feel like the security is being broken) === semighost is now known as semiturkey [13:50] hello... after upgrading ubuntu server 16.04 -> 20.04 on vps i get this: host google.com -> Host google.com not found: 2(SERVFAIL) # for every host, unless i manually set up resolv.conf from 127.0.0.53 to 8.8.8.8 [13:51] wonko, well, there is an interface to allow access to ~/.ssh, perhaps lsd uses that ? (i dont know the lsd snap so i cant tell) ... you can see connected interfaces with the "snap connections " command [13:52] home and removable-media [13:53] I *can't* do ls ~/.ssh but I *can* do ls ~/.ssh/* [13:53] which seems broken [13:53] hmm, then you shouldnt be able to ls ~/.ssh/* [13:53] yes, that seems broken for sure [13:54] so that security mechanism appears to have a small hole in it. [13:54] well, there might be intention behind it, the security team would know [13:54] or the snapd team in the #snappy channel [13:57] we do have explicit "ssh-keys" and "ssh-public-keys" interfaces for ssh stuff that allow this access ... not sure why globbing over ~/.ssh would allow reading it [13:58] though since this is all managed by the kernel via its apparmor implementation, things like runnings such commands inside containers can/will behave slightly different due to security stacking === bildramer1 is now known as bildramer === kukacz_ is now known as kukacz [14:27] wonko: what are the permissions on the .ssh dir ? should be 700, owner/group the username [14:28] pavlos: it's snap confinement. === jeddo- is now known as jeddo [14:31] how can I back up my settings and packages so they can be installed again WITHOUT use of the internet? (in other words, not apt-clone)?? [14:34] hylian: i didnt test myself, but borg seems to be popular on the community [14:34] !borg [14:34] borg is a fast backup tool with incremental backups: https://www.borgbackup.org/ (Ubuntu packages: borgbackup, borgbackup-doc, and borgmatic) [14:36] lotuspsychje: ill look into that, thanks. I have a brostrend wifi adapter and I have to dig up an ancient wifi n device and install through the internet everytime I want to re install my system, so I am trying to find a way to back that up. [14:37] hylian: well its always reccomended to also keep your system up to date aswell [14:39] lotuspsychje: i get that, it's just frustratingly stupid to have to rely on old hardware to get new hardware working again. I'm used to old ubuntu where I would plug something in and it would just run. what's the point of having a wifi card that wont work until you have drivers from the internet? That's like owning a car, and gas hasn't been invented yet... but I digress. [14:40] hylian: did you try other ubuntu releases/kernels yet that possibly do support your wifi driver? [14:42] lotuspsychje: yeah, no go. It has awesome speeds for wifi, but even the company is like "you'll want to install the drivers fresh from the interent", which is stupid, because it's the device i use to get to the internet. Might as well ask me to fly without wings. :D [14:43] lotuspsychje: well thanks for all you help, i've installed borg, and I'm going to try it now. [14:43] hylian: and your machine doesnt have an eth port to pull the updates in? [14:43] allrighty hylian good luck [14:44] lotuspsychje: this internet is provided via spectrum's "bulk services". There is no eth ports. the entire building is wifi only. [14:44] allright [14:45] lotuspsychje: I know right? :D Crazy situations. I would love to chew out brostrend. They should provide a internet-less driver for their wifi products. It only makes logical sense. [14:45] hylian: might be interesting to file a bug on that [14:47] lotuspsychje: will do. [14:56] hi [14:56] what's the simplest way to have a protected folder on a shared macine [14:57] from command-line only? [14:57] i'd like to have a big file that I can mount when I arrive on the machine [14:57] at the end, I unmount it [14:57] when mounting, it asks a password [14:57] ahylight: ecryptfs should do it [14:58] EriC^^, can I mount it in one line of command line? [14:58] yeah [14:59] Mint 20 has no problem installing grub on sda if /boot and / are on sdb.Checked in VBox bios. With Ubuntu the same?

There was not such === Examknow is now known as Texas [15:40] petester: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RcG2wkZ3wp/ [15:52] lotuspsychje: i think i found my solution, dpkg-repack. it backed up all my installed debs to a folder. *hopefully* this will solve my driver issues in the future. having wifi device that needs a driver from the internet is just plain stupidity of the worst kind. :) Glad I can think around it. :) [15:53] hi wonko I heard you have a snap confinement problem? You are able to list ~/.ssh/* from a strictly confined snap? [15:54] great you found a solution hylian [15:54] lotuspsychje: thanks again for all the help! [15:54] welcome hylian [15:54] ijohnson: yeah, lsd ~/.ssh failes with os error 13 (confined) and lsd ~/.ssh/* works fine [15:54] wonko: what distro is this? what's the output of `snap version` for you ? [15:55] 20.04 LTS (multipass) 2.47.1+20.04 [15:55] wonko: what snap are you able to do this with? can you show `snap connections` for the snap you are trying this with? [15:56] https://gist.github.com/bhechinger/e2fdb1e4e4ab636287c265806ab3dabf [15:58] ijohnson, snap version should probably notify that it is inside a container/vm ... [15:58] ijohnson: if you clicked that you can refresh it and I added the output of lsd working and not working [15:58] (since that can potentially influence confinement) [15:58] ogra: we proposed to do that and merged code to do that, but it was reverted because people are relying on specific format of the `snap version` command because ... reasons [15:59] oh my [15:59] politics ... [16:00] wonko: thanks I'll have a look and see if I can reproduce, to be clear this is a full VM with multipass you're running the lsd command with? [16:00] yes [16:01] i wonder if multipass does some bind mount magic for ~/.ssh that could cause this [16:01] I'm pretty sure it doesn't [16:01] what is 'lsd'? [16:01] because this affects all dot folders [16:01] or if it doesn't it's not relevant [16:01] Habbie, it expands yur conciousness while listing directory contents [16:02] or so ... [16:02] 😛 [16:02] I can't get the damn icons to work with Windows Terminal so I'm half tempted to just ditch it, but I find this all to be very curious and interesting from a security point of view. [16:02] Habbie, https://snapcraft.io/lsd [16:03] ogra, thanks [16:12] wonko, if you say windows terminal ... this isnt multipass running in WSL or some such i hope ? [16:12] No, I replaced WSL with multipass [16:13] WSL was nice, but it was pissing me off too much [16:13] oh, so it is multipass natively on windows ? [16:13] yes [16:13] * ijohnson is in meeting, will return soon [16:13] the actual proper hyper-v VM [16:21] wonko, whats the output of "snap debug confinement" ? [16:22] strict [16:28] wonko, also "snap list lsd" ... does that say "devmode" at the end of the line ? [16:30] lsd 0.16.0 62 latest/stable peltoche - [16:32] okay [16:42] wonko, seems you found a ral bug then 🙂 i can actually reproduce it on my laptop... (and ian too) [16:42] https://githinub.com/Peltoche/lsd/issues/79 [16:43] they suggest the .deb version : https://github.com/Peltoche/lsd/releases [16:46] Hi! I've got a Yubikey and I'm looking to set it up so that when I run a command with sudo then it doesn't require a password. The guide here shows me how to set it up so that I need a password AND the Yubikey but I'd like it so that the password isn't required. https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016649099-Ubuntu-Linux-Login-Guide-U2F [16:46] Any ideas? [16:47] well, yeah, something like lsd should be a classic snap ... though this discussion isnt really about lsd itself [16:50] wonko: I know what the issue it, and it's not a confinement escape [16:50] wonko: try `lsd '~/.ssh/*'` and see what happens [16:52] that also fails [16:52] cannot access '~/.ssh/*': No such file or directory (os error 2) [16:53] but differently [16:53] wonko: yes, so I guess what I was trying to say is that there is nothing wrong with snap confinement for the `lsd` snap [16:54] what's happening is that your shell you are running `lsd` in, is expanding `~/.ssh/*` to all those files _before_ running the snap [16:54] so your snap actually sees something like this: [16:54] [pid 44201] 1604422062.123092 execve("/snap/lsd/62/command-lsd.wrapper", ["/snap/lsd/62/command-lsd.wrapper", "/home/ijohnson/.ssh/authorized_keys", "/home/ijohnson/.ssh/config", "/home/ijohnson/.ssh/id_rsa", "/home/ijohnson/.ssh/id_rsa-lxd", "/home/ijohnson/.ssh/id_rsa-lxd.pub", "/home/ijohnson/.ssh/id_rsa.pub", "/home/ijohnson/.ssh/known_hosts", "/home/ijohnson/.ssh/known_hosts.old"], 0xc420178300 /* 95 vars */ [16:54] [16:54] but shouldn't confinement deny those based on the path being a dot file in the home dir? [16:54] where my shell (bash) expanded the * to all those files you see, and then lsd "kinda" works because it knows the names of the files [16:55] then lsd is able to display some info about those files because it uses the `stat` syscall on those filenames which were already provided to it [16:55] the `stat` syscall is always allowed for snaps for any filename, and it is a known information leak, but it is very minimal, since you can't use `stat` to learn other filenames, or read actual content of the data [16:56] it can only give you metadata about the filenames that we already tol the lsd snap about [16:56] ok, so as long as it's not a security breach I guess it's ok [16:56] yes it's not a security breach [16:56] it's *very* confusing though so from a UI perspective it's terrible. :) [16:56] now as you and ogra mentioned, maybe lsd should just be a classic snap anyways [16:56] but yes also I agree that this is confusing [16:57] unfortunately we don't really have any way of preventing it, short of changing how the shell works [16:57] Well, I just installed the deb version [16:57] so that's the "solution" to this particular problem [16:57] eventually some day we may be able to mediate stat syscall arguments using seccomp in which case we can make this fail the way it should under strict confinement, but we are a long way from having that aiui [16:57] but that still seems a bit counter-intuative [16:58] yes, the solution wuld be a classic snap .. [16:58] *would [16:58] ok, so there is a roadmap, that helps [17:00] wonko: but yes in the short-term I think you should make a request to the lsd snap to have it become a classic snap instead [17:01] wonko: there's an email address under `snap info wonko` you could try to ask them to change the confinement [17:02] ijohnson, i think you mean "snap info lsd" 🙂 [17:02] ah sorry yes that is what I mean [17:02] looking at that github issue ioria listed it looks like they know but haven't updated the snap yet (if they ever do) [17:02] * ijohnson types too fast for his own good sometimes [17:02] is there a github issue for this? [17:03] * wonko laughs at snap info wonko [17:03] https://github.com/Peltoche/lsd/issues/79 [17:04] They've removed the snap install directions from the README.md as well [17:04] that snap package really needs to be deleted [17:06] There, I've added a comment asking them to remove it if they aren't going to udpate it [17:07] making it classic would be nicer but well .. [17:07] they don't seem to be intersted in doing that for some reason [17:07] it is quite some effort since you need to ask for a security review etc [17:08] so there is paperwork and waiting involved [17:08] ah, ok, that's a good reason to not want to do it. :) [17:09] it really depends if your app is updating usually faster than distros release new versions ... than snaps are always the better choice ... [17:09] i assume lsd isnt really in that category [17:32] It doesn't seem to have a fast dev cycle, no [17:42] Also, thank you so much for helping me figure this out. Nobody was able to help me. :) [17:43] well, thanks for showing us that flaw ... that surely made my workday a little more interesting [17:54] Hey [17:57] ogra: more than happy to break things. :) I wonder if there is a way for snap to return a better error though. That error message is......... not useful and very misleading. [17:58] how do I increase the number of failed attempts allowed to decrypt a GPG encyrpted file? [18:00] I'm using a program called 'password store' which throws up an ubuntu-style dialog box when decrypting a password file asking for my password and attempts are max 3... my guess is that there's a system setting that manages that? [18:03] how can I run a privileged command right after login in GDM? === ijohnson is now known as ijohnson|lunch [18:16] I added a microsoft repo to install SQL Server for linux but I am getting an error that the GPG key is not signed [18:16] does anyone know how I can fix this [18:16] devslash, not signed or not trusted? [18:16] devslash, usually the instructions from a vendor would also tell you how to get the key [18:16] i dunno [18:19] PPA's and other stuff from outside the official Ubuntu repo's aren't supported here afaik, their usage are at own risk [18:20] i fixed it thanks [18:20] cool :) [18:25] after installing mono-devel, how do i compile hello_world.cs ? [18:33] If mac is unix based and linux is unix based then won't a program for mac be able to run on linux? [18:35] blahboybaz: https://www.darlinghq.org/ [18:36] blahboybaz: that's not ubuntu support related, better to take that into #ubuntu-offtopic [18:37] oh [18:37] :) [18:38] KindOne: Thanks [18:41] I'm trying to install wine and getting an error when trying to install the keys. I don't know if this error relates to the wine keys or some other applicaiton since it contains the name of an-other application in the output (but the command that was run contained the wine information). How do I know if it was successful or not and whether it's safe to proceed (not make the situation worse)?? [18:41] blahboybaz: what version of ubuntu? [18:42] leftyfb: 18.04 [18:43] blahboybaz: https://linuxconfig.org/install-wine-on-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux [18:45] Hi guys. I'm trying to install NVIDIA drivers from the website and not the PPA. I keep getting extraction failed. Tried installing dependencies, stopping GDM, running the .run file as root, nothing works. I've already removed anything related to the drivers from the PPA. [18:46] Driver version I'm trying to get is 455.38. [18:46] leftyfb: Since I had already issued a couple commands from here: https://wine.htmlvalidator.com/install-wine-on-ubuntu-18.04.html Do you think that if you saw this: https://pastebin.com/CjFgJQmL you could tell what sort of situation I'm in now? [18:47] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/knhcRj4qPr/ [18:47] ^^ There is the terminal command and output. Simply looks like it failed to extract, but why? [18:48] Forgot to mention OS release is 20.10. [18:49] MikeRL: From what I see there it appears fine. What gives you the indiaction it failed? Is there something not seen in that paste? [18:50] Woah. [18:50] It pasted weird. It expands really long horizontally. Caught me off guard. Says "extraction failed". [18:51] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/T9qj8J4QRq/ [18:51] MikeRL, check your free disk space, specifically in /tmp [18:51] I removed a ton of the periods so it is visible now, just to be more clear. [18:54] "/tmp" shows 512M available, 28k used. Command was "df -h slash tmp" [18:55] More of sudo df -h https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SxJBdqt3rF/ [18:55] I do use some of my 16GB of RAM as temp storage. Wonder if there's a conflict there? [18:55] Doubt it but who knows for sure? [18:56] Even following the other article at the link given the resulting output is the same (there appears to be some problem but I can't tell if there is one or what it is if there is). [18:57] Since I had already issued a couple commands from here: https://wine.htmlvalidator.com/install-wine-on-ubuntu-18.04.html Do you think that if you saw this: https://pastebin.com/CjFgJQmL you could tell what sort of situation I'm in now? [18:57] ^^ the output shown in the paste is the same using either article information to do the install [18:58] Please note the information in the title of the paste [18:58] MikeRL, can you try running `sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-455.38.run --extract-only` [18:59] g3poandlsl, Thanks. Will do. === beaver_ is now known as maybe_baby [19:00] g3poandlsl, That command worked. [19:00] MikeRL, you should now have a directory with the installer in it. Should be able to install from there [19:01] how can I run a privileged custom command right after login in GDM? [19:01] Yeah. Think it looks simple from here. [19:02] Seems to be working thus far. Will post results. [19:03] How can I determine if a key was installed correctly? [19:17] It worked. [19:17] Thanks g3poandlsl [19:25] hi [19:25] i am trying to install enlightenment [19:25] on ubuntu 18.04 [19:26] i get the error "PAM is not disabled and not found on non-free+open BSD platforms" [19:26] any help? [19:37] why when booting it shows my bios image? [19:39] goddard: BIOS image or do you mean vendor image [19:39] uh I mean my motherboard's brand image [19:39] This some new uefi thing? [19:40] on newer kernels it just shows this image and doesn't ever boot the desktop [19:41] goddard: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2020/03/ubuntu-20-04-oem-boot-splash you mean that? [19:42] ya exactly [19:43] yep, nothing new. :) [19:46] hey there [19:46] okay, but how do you debug the boot process? Usually on boot up it will show me the systemd processes and then I know where a failure happened? [19:46] so i tried to install the jdk [19:46] but when trying to install the jdk my computer froze and i had to reboot [19:46] what should i do? === ijohnson|lunch is now known as ijohnson [19:55] rai-en: what release are you on? [19:56] rai-en: there is, sudo apt install default-jdk [20:03] i am on the latest stable release [20:03] "20. something" [20:04] yeah so i tried to purge jdk and it said "unable to locate package" [20:04] computer froze after walked way from it after doing "sudo apt-get install default jdk" [20:05] and hitting "y" [20:05] rai-en: default-jdk ans a dash [20:05] has [20:06] oh [20:06] i didn't include the dash and it started installing though [20:07] rai-en: it tried to install a package named "default" and another package named "jdk" [20:07]
