| Zythyr | jeremy31 So is the expectation that I should alwasy boot into Ubunutu's grub bootloader which also gives me the option for Windows? So even if I want WIndows as a the default, I should boot into grub first? Also funny in BIOS i see the option to re-order the options (windows or ubuntu efi) however it won't let me press enter to save the settigns after reordering | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| gebbione | pavlos, unfortunately made no difference | 00:01 |
| jeremy31 | Zythyr: try the F10 if I remember correctly to change the order | 00:01 |
| jayjo- | when using a 3rd party apt repository, usually i would download the key and pipe it to apt-key add, which has been deprecated. Some other keys are now just placing their keys under /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d, which seems better than using /etc/apt/trusted.gpg. But should I be adding them somewhere else and using [signed-by=...] in sources.list? | 00:02 |
| jeremy31 | Zythyr: for some reason HP will allow ubuntu to be added to the EFI but won't allow it to alter the EFI bootloader order | 00:02 |
| OceanGao | jayjo- I don't know which is the best, but I'm using sorces.list to manage those 3rd party apt repos. | 00:04 |
| OceanGao | sources.list | 00:04 |
| Zythyr | jeremy31 That worked! Got luckly u have HP expereince. I do have a follow up question though | 00:06 |
| jayjo- | ok, thanks, I'm going to remove the keys from the trusted keyring then and list them there | 00:08 |
| Zythyr | When installing Ubuntu after installing Windows10, where am I suppose to install the Ubuntu bootloader? Win10 will be my primary default OS. Should I install Ubuntu bootloader on the root device (ex: /dev/sda) or on the partition Ubuntu is isntalled on (ex: /dev/sda5) or on the efi partition which contains the Windows bootmanager (ex: /dev/sda1)? I watched youtube tutorials but go confllicting | 00:08 |
| Zythyr | info | 00:08 |
| jeremy31 | Zythyr: Boot loader should get installed to a drive like /dev/sda and not a partition like /dev/sda* | 00:10 |
| jeremy31 | Grub install will figure it out | 00:10 |
| jeremy31 | Zythyr: the only issue will happen if the Ubuntu ISO is booted in BIOS when Windows in installed in UEFI or the other way around | 00:11 |

| alazy | I read that a regression that makes my system unusable should be fixed by upgrading my gpu driver from nvidia 450 packaged with ubuntu to nvidia 455+ from their website. Anything I should know/do before removing the apt-installed version and trying to install it on my own to make it go smoothly? | 01:13 |
| Bashing-om | alazy: Nvidia says do not do that - we have a trusted PPA that might support your release with the 455 version driver. What release are you on and what is the card ? | 01:16 |
| Bashing-om | alazy: Nvidia: "Note that many Linux distributions provide their own packages of the NVIDIA Linux Graphics Driver in the distribution's native package management format. This may interact better with the rest of your distribution's framework, and you may want to use this rather than NVIDIA's official package." :D | 01:17 |
| chalcedony | good evening Bashing-om :) | 01:23 |
| chalcedony | a quick i hope question. How does one open port 113 on Ubuntu 20.04? it seems to be in his computer, not the router. | 01:24 |
| Bashing-om | chalcedony: :D - Ya get hubby's box all squared away ? | 01:24 |
| chalcedony | Bashing-om, its a computer. That will be the day. | 01:26 |
| Bashing-om | chalcedony: Yeah - computers are pretty stupid - They will not tell us we are fixing to mess up :P | 01:28 |
| chalcedony | Bashing-om, is there a fix for the port 113? | 01:29 |
| Bashing-om | chalcedony: The app should open the port as required - what is the background here ? | 01:32 |
| tomreyn | chalcedony: i thnk you're trying 0to set up identd. this is a really old protocol, and while you can still use it, there is not really any use to it. | 01:33 |
| pavlos | gebbione: "sudo apt install --reinstall fontconfig" then "fc-cache -v -f" (regenerate cache) | 01:34 |
| gebbione | i tried by deleting all the cache too | 01:40 |
| gebbione | not sure why on my machine is not working but i dont think an installer should fail if cache is not removed | 01:40 |
| gebbione | so i opened a ticket on the snap package github repo | 01:40 |
| chalcedony | tomreyn, it's hesitating when i try to connect him to freenode. | 01:41 |
| chull | Bashing-om, tomreyn it does finally connect, but it takes a long long time. | 01:45 |
| tomreyn | chull: yes, it can takes two seconds or something, the irc server waits for a timeout. if you dislike it, setting up identd is an option. | 01:47 |
| chull | tomreyn, it seems longer than two seconds. More like minutes. | 01:49 |
| chull | as long as it does it. | 01:49 |
| tomreyn | hmm, that's unusually long. | 01:49 |
| tomreyn | /join #freenode for discussing the pro's and con's of using identd when connscting to freenode. | 01:50 |
| chull | :) | 01:50 |

| alazy | Bashing-om: So that ppa does have the 455 driver? The "Current long-lived branch release: 'nvidia-430'" part at the top confused me. | 03:20 |
| alazy | Anyone else here tried to install 455? Anything to watch know/do beforehand? Better to remove current driver first or upgrade in place, for example? | 03:21 |
| Bashing-om | alazy: "nvidia-graphics-drivers-455455.45.01-0ubuntu0.20.04.1" is there :) | 03:22 |

| Rexodus | However, 1 question remains. Root should have no read-rights too? | 09:02 |
| EriC^^ | i'll throw some advice if you're using dd and stuff and new to it, always double check the line before hitting enter cause a wrong of= and your hdd could get rewritten and files lost | 09:03 |
| Rexodus | Yeah, been there ;) | 09:03 |
| EriC^^ | it's one of those commands you really wanna double check before hitting enter | 09:03 |
| Rexodus | I use it mainly to backup my Windows drive. | 09:03 |
| EriC^^ | i see | 09:03 |
| EriC^^ | same here, easy backup/restore | 09:04 |
| Rexodus | And there comes a next question. I never tried to dd my /dev/sda with bitlocker active. Is this working too? | 09:04 |
| EriC^^ | i guess it would work if bitlocker is something that's software not hardware, tbh i never used bitlocker | 09:05 |
| EriC^^ | it's software? | 09:05 |
| Rexodus | Yes. | 09:05 |
| Rexodus | I don't have trusted platform chips afaik | 09:05 |

| sammyg | does ubuntu 20.10 support legacy bios mode? | 09:27 |
| EriC^^ | sammyg: yeah | 09:29 |
| sammyg | what image supports that? desktop image? or server only or some testing image? | 09:34 |
| EriC^^ | sammyg: all images support it | 09:35 |
| EriC^^ | the mini iso doesnt support uefi however | 09:35 |
| sammyg | maybe my problem is the rufus tool then? i wrote ubuntu-20.10-desktop-amd64.iso (desktop) to a usb stick using rufus and legacy bios was not an option (for either mbr or gpt) and i can't boot it now in csm mode (expected given the lack of legacy option in rufus) on my b550 motherboard | 09:37 |
| ThinkT510 | sammyg: you could dd the iso to the usb instead | 09:39 |
| ThinkT510 | assuming you don't want to keep anything else on the usb | 09:39 |
| sammyg | ah good point! will try that next. | 09:40 |
| ThinkT510 | make sure you pick the right device label, you don't want to pick the wrong one with dd | 09:41 |
| sammyg | i do get to see the "kingston bla bla" in the boot list (f8), but when i select it it gets skipped past and another os boots. and if i power off and disconnect all disks and try again i get to see the problem: "reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key". | 09:42 |
| EriC^^ | sammyg: i'd try to dd the iso as suggested | 09:46 |
| sammyg | writing anew in dd mode: https://imgur.com/a/6iRQKkm | 09:49 |
| sammyg | i still can't change "target system" and write mode (dd) does not depend on this parameter. | 09:51 |
| EriC^^ | sammyg: dd copies the iso as-is, by default it'll support both booting modes | 09:52 |
| sammyg | i came across this earlier, seems to be the same problem (unless i'm wrong 20.10 expects efi system): https://askubuntu.com/questions/1286977/ubuntu-20-10-installer-thinks-legacy-system-uses-efi-booting | 09:53 |
| sammyg | ThinkT510 & EriC^^ hooray! it worked! thank you guys! | 10:14 |

| dust | installing 20.10 with lvm leads to a swap with 980mb... how can the swap be increased when VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree vgubuntu 1 2 0 wz--n- <465,26g 0 | 15:28 |
| dust | insufficient free space... the disc is large enough as u see | 15:29 |
| gordonjcp | dust: people still use swap? | 15:30 |
| dust | ofc gordonjcp | 15:30 |
| gordonjcp | did I wake up in the 90s? | 15:30 |
| dust | whatever ram size u ve it ll never be enough at some point... | 15:31 |
| gordonjcp | dust: what's "u ve"? | 15:33 |
| gordonjcp | in this context | 15:33 |
| gordonjcp | I can't say I've found swap to be particularly necessary, since I switched away from linux 2.4 | 15:33 |
| jeremy31 | you have? | 15:36 |
| dust | gordonjcp, 8gb and more ram is no option... so swap is needed and i want the double amount of ram which gives 16gb | 15:36 |
| gordonjcp | okay | 15:37 |
| gordonjcp | if 8GB is not enough and you want 8GB of swap too, you wil have incredibly disappointing performance | 15:37 |
| gordonjcp | dust: maybe if you have an SSD it'll mitigate it a bit but anything so old it can only take 8GB RAM will have dialup-speed SATA | 15:38 |
| dust | gordonjcp, u dont tell me new stuff... see my question above... how to increase swap on lvm when vfree is 0 | 15:39 |
| gordonjcp | dust: you could stop your existing swap, create a new partition, and then set that up as swap | 15:40 |
| gordonjcp | dust: I feel like growing the swap partition wouldn't totally work | 15:41 |
| dust | followed this but it didnt work... thats the reason i ask here https://opensource.com/article/18/9/swap-space-linux-systems | 15:41 |
| gordonjcp | dust: if you've more than one SATA channel, buy another SSD and put swap on that with a totally separate SATA channel | 15:41 |
| dust | gordonjcp, is no option... its only about increase swap | 15:42 |
| dust | its a laptop... | 15:42 |
| gordonjcp | dust: talk me through what you've done and where you got stuck | 15:43 |
| dust | lvextend -L +2G /dev/mapper/vgubuntu-swap_1 failed | 15:44 |
| dust | insuficient free space: 3584 extends needed, but only 0 available | 15:45 |
| tpw_rules | hello. i have an ubuntu 20.04.1 machine and systemd-networkd does not run DHCP and assign it an IP address. running "sudo dhclient" works fine, but then the lease ends eventually and it loses internet. the journal says nothing useful. there's a file in /etc/systemd/network/ for my interface which enables DHCP | 15:47 |
| dust | VG #PV #LV #SN Attr VSize VFree | 15:47 |
| dust | vgubuntu 1 2 0 wz--n- <465,26g 0 | 15:47 |
| tpw_rules | actually hm, it seems there was something wrong in /etc/network/interfaces. i thought systemd didn't use that | 15:51 |
| gordonjcp | dust: so I guess you have no free space left in your volume set | 15:52 |
| vlm | dust, im not sure,but maybe you need to add a disk to you vg,seems all is allocated to yout two existing lvs | 15:52 |
| gordonjcp | dust: you'll either need to make another LV smaller or fit another disk | 15:53 |
| gordonjcp | dust: making an existing LV smaller is probably going to give you an exciting afternoon | 15:53 |
| dust | so basically to use gparted and reduce disc size to get it free for swap | 15:53 |
| gordonjcp | dust: I would strongly recommend backing up everything you care about and making a bootable install stick | 15:53 |
| gordonjcp | dust: no, you'll need to reduce a logical volume to free up space in LVM | 15:54 |
| dust | so basically is a new install... | 15:54 |
| gordonjcp | dust: that would be safest and easiest tbh | 15:54 |
| dust | k ll try that | 15:54 |
| dust | gordonjcp, thx for infos and help | 15:54 |
| gordonjcp | dust: you can try resizing your other logical volume but you'll need to unmount it, resize it, and fsck it | 15:55 |
| gordonjcp | dust: if that's the only disk in your machine then I'm guessing that you can't just unmount the other LV | 15:55 |
| gordonjcp | so you're going to need a bootable USB stick anyway | 15:55 |
| gordonjcp | dust: are you using an SSD? | 15:55 |
| dust | bootable usb to boot and do it from there i imagine | 15:55 |
| gordonjcp | dust: yup | 15:56 |
| dust | its a mix of sdd and hdd | 15:56 |
| gordonjcp | okay, because I was going to say if you end up spending money today spend it on an SSD | 15:56 |
| gordonjcp | it's the best 80 quid you'll ever spend on PC bits | 15:56 |
| gordonjcp | one of my "not important" boxes has four 2TB normal drives configured as striped and mirrored and it's so painfully slow | 15:57 |
| gordonjcp | dust: I let $teenager use it so she could experience what computers were like in the (pre 2010) olden days | 15:58 |
| dust | normally the 8gb is enough but it can be that in some rare situations more is needed and so a good sized swap is important to not crash programs while some important work is done and lost... | 15:58 |
| gordonjcp | dust: as long as it's nothing time-sensitive | 15:58 |
| dust | gordonjcp, better slow than sorry :D | 15:58 |
| conr | does anybody know how to automate stopping or killing a systemd service after logging in over gdm3? | 16:11 |
| conr | startup applications was my first thought but i cant run it as root in my user account without getting a password prompt. | 16:16 |
| gordonjcp | conr: for the avoidance of the XY problem, what are you trying to do? | 16:17 |
| lotuspsychje | conr: try stacer for managing systemd services a GUI way easy | 16:17 |
| conr | gordonjcp: i have x11vnc startup on boot so i can vnc to my ubuntu box and login to my account. but since gdm3, x11vnc goes to a black screen so a hack is to start another session and i was just going to use vino but wanted to kill the x11vnc service. | 16:20 |
| gordonjcp | conr: why not just stop x11vnc altogether and use vino? | 16:20 |
| gordonjcp | conr: alternatively, you can look at /etc/sudoers and see how to run specific commands with elevated privileges, possibly without entering a password | 16:21 |
| conr | gordonjcp: i dont think vino starts until user logs in | 16:21 |
| gordonjcp | conr: you can lock it down to just a particular command | 16:21 |
| gordonjcp | hm | 16:22 |
| gordonjcp | wouldn't that mean you log into x11vnc but then kill your connection when vino starts? | 16:22 |
| conr | x11vnc is the only vnc ive got to run on boot. | 16:22 |
| gordonjcp | also | 16:22 |
| conr | correct | 16:22 |
| gordonjcp | why bother with VNC, why not just do remote X | 16:22 |
| gordonjcp | ssh will forward X quite happily | 16:23 |
| conr | i dont know remote X. does mac support? plus i like my vnc viewer. | 16:24 |
| gordonjcp | oh, maybe macs don't support it | 16:24 |
| gordonjcp | conr: to be honest I've never really bothered VNCing to Linux machines, kind of don't see the point | 16:25 |
| atomiss5 | Hey, i would like to have a rough estimate, if it will affect the speed and stability of my netbook ubuntu (now 18.04.5, uptodate), if i do an release upgrade to 20.04.1. It is an rather old netbook, less than 1 GB Ram and so on. | 16:25 |
| gordonjcp | atomiss5: with that little RAM I'd consider a "lighter" Ubuntu, like xubuntu or similar | 16:26 |
| lotuspsychje | atomiss5: is it ubuntu desktop or another flavour? | 16:26 |
| conr | gordonjcp: wel i have a use cass cause its my vpn box that i browse ans torrent with. not fun when its headless. | 16:26 |
| gordonjcp | conr: surely it would be easier to just forward stuff through it? | 16:26 |
| conr | gordonjcp: well i have a 1Gb connection so dont want other devices to suffer | 16:27 |
| atomiss5 | dang. Gotta phone call. I have to check in back later. Thanks for the answers already | 16:28 |
| gordonjcp | conr: it's worth looking into, I'd say | 16:28 |
| gordonjcp | conr: if you're really up for a bit of fun, look into installing Apache Guacamole on your remote box, which is a web-accessible VNC viewer | 16:29 |
| conr | gordonjcp: is it availabe on boot? | 16:30 |
| gordonjcp | conr: you'd run it as a normal service | 16:30 |
| gordonjcp | conr: effectively you'd run it as a web server, but setting it up is pretty complicated | 16:30 |
| atomiss5 | lotuspsychje hmm, it says all normal with lsb_release -a or ubuntu SMP in cat /proc/version | 16:30 |
| conr | gordonjcp: oh i see its like a dumbed down gui | 16:31 |
| gordonjcp | conr: what is? | 16:31 |
| conr | apache guac | 16:31 |
| conr | ive setup a lot of webserver in my life | 16:32 |
| gordonjcp | conr: no, it's a full-fat VNC viewer | 16:32 |
| lotuspsychje | atomiss5: lubuntu 20.04 i tested on an old netbook with 2GB ram running fine, ubuntu-desktop with gnome needs at least 4GB+ reccomended 8GB | 16:32 |
| gordonjcp | conr: you point your browser at it, log in, and VNC to the box you want | 16:32 |
| atomiss5 | ok, thank you! | 16:32 |
| gordonjcp | conr: I use it as the front-end to a training system I built for some very very specialised network equipment (which runs Windows XP but that's a whole other can of worms) | 16:33 |
| lotuspsychje | atomiss5: i would try a lubuntu 20.04 fresh | 16:33 |
| lotuspsychje | atomiss5: unless your computer is 32bit? | 16:34 |
| gordonjcp | lotuspsychje: my lowest-end laptop has a whopping 64MB of RAM :-) | 16:35 |
| lotuspsychje | gordonjcp: wich DE/WM are you on there? | 16:36 |
| gordonjcp | lotuspsychje: fvwm2, on a very very hand-tuned NetBSD | 16:36 |
| lotuspsychje | ah | 16:36 |
| gordonjcp | lotuspsychje: I work with high-frequency radio equipment where you tune it by polishing tiny brass pegs with jeweller's rouge | 16:37 |
| gordonjcp | lotuspsychje: one wipe too far can put you 100MHz off frequency | 16:37 |
| conr | gordonjcp: im confused. does gauc dispaly the remote client the browser or do you need a vnc client? | 16:37 |
| lotuspsychje | gordonjcp: lets go to #ubuntu-discuss | 16:37 |
| gordonjcp | lotuspsychje: building a kernel for this Thinkpad felt a bit like pulling in one of these TXes | 16:37 |
| gordonjcp | lotuspsychje: sorry, thought we were -offtopic :-) | 16:37 |
| gordonjcp | conr: it's a VNC *viewer* | 16:37 |
| gordonjcp | conr: browse to it with the browser of your choice then VNC to whatever you want to run | 16:38 |
| conr | so it connects to like vino over browser? | 16:38 |
| gordonjcp | conr: as I say though setting it up is nontrivial but it's an excellent tool | 16:38 |
| gordonjcp | yup | 16:38 |
| gordonjcp | conr: if you have concerns over privacy I'd strongly recommend looking at using your remote box as a VPN endpoint and tunnelling over it | 16:39 |
| conr | gordonjcp: how does ubuntu 20 desktop look on it? | 16:39 |
| gordonjcp | conr: pretty normal over a fastish connection | 16:39 |
| gordonjcp | conr: I never ever ever use Linux machines remotely with a GUI though | 16:40 |
| gordonjcp | conr: occasionally I have to use RDP or VNC to access Windows machines remotely and it sucks | 16:40 |
| gordonjcp | I don't know why Windows doesn't have a normal cli | 16:40 |
| conr | gordonjcp: actually i didnt say its a box on my home network. haha | 16:40 |
| Lutin | I always install new servers with the latest minor ISO but are there reasons not to use/upgrade to the latest minor release ? | 16:42 |
| conr | i have a imac and linux desktop on the same desk but want to run a vnc session through my iMac. | 16:42 |
| conr | gordonjcp: thats my actual end goal ^ | 16:43 |
| gordonjcp | conr: daft question - does x11vnc work with a monitor plugged into your Linux box? | 16:44 |
| geosmile | If I have a 80GB drive and a 40GB drive, can i add them both to look like a 120GB drive to the OS? I am really needed to spill over a particular directory on the 80GB drive that is currently using 34G and I want to spill it over to the 40G drive | 16:44 |
| geosmile | So mainly I need a particular directory to use two drives for storage of its files. | 16:45 |
| conr | gordonjcp: i dont get the plugged in question. but it does work if im logged in to my user account. | 16:45 |
| TJ- | geosmile: using LVM yes; each drive can contribute a Physical Volume (PV) to a single Volume Group, from where space for Logical Volumes (LV) is allocated, and LVs can be extended at will given free space in their parent VG | 16:46 |
| geosmile | TJ-, thanks | 16:54 |
| rr123 | on ubuntu 20.04 ctrl+alt+f1 gives me the GUI login screen instead of a text console? | 17:07 |
| rr123 | i thought ctrl-alt-f1~f6 are still text console only | 17:07 |
| lotuspsychje | !tty | rr123 | 17:07 |
| ubottu | rr123: To get to the TTY terminals 3-6, use the keystroke Ctrl + Alt + F3-F6 respectively. Ctrl-Alt-F2 or Ctrl-Alt-F1 will get you back to your graphical login (Ctrl-Alt-F7 on 16.04). To change TTY resolution, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution | 17:07 |
| rr123 | so it's different from older ubuntus, fine, ctrl-alt-f1 gave me a new login, while f2 gave me a already-logged-in GUI | 17:08 |
| rr123 | so ctrl-alt-f2 is the old F7, what's ctrl+alt+f1 for then | 17:09 |

| faLUKE | hello, is there anyone aware of this? On debian/ubuntu, python3-venv must be installed separately as a package. Before installing it, python3 -m venv did not work. After installing it, it works. Well: I purged the python3-venv package (with apt-get purge) and venv is still present. How can I remove it?? | 19:01 |

| Aavar_ | If I have two existing raid1 arrays. Is it simple to combine them into a raid10 array? | 21:32 |
| BlueEagle | Aavar_: Simplest way is to back up all data, create the raid 10 array and restore the data to that. In any case you want to back up your data before re-structuring a raid array in case something goes wrong. | 21:35 |
| Aavar_ | BlueEagle: I do have offsite backups so I would rather not use them... I have an existing raid1 array and would like to add two more drives. Is it possible to create a raid10 array with two drives, copy the data from the existing raid1 array and then add the new drives to the raid 10 array? | 21:38 |

| Rexodus | Does anyone know if a awus036ach can do 30dBm? Tried a lot. Country to BO and GY. No luck so far. I specially bought this thing because I heard it could do even 33 dBm. But I'm not so sure anymore... it's stuck to 20 dBm and don't want to move in any direction. Even sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off gives an error: Error for wireless request "Set Tx Power" (8B26) : SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not | 21:50 |

| jeremy31 | Rexodus: I am pretty sure the Atheros has to be DOWN to make changes and will error when trying to set power off | 22:13 |
| jbski | its hard for me to think its a hardware issue, its a brand new laptop, 2 weeks old | 22:13 |
| jbski | any ideas? | 22:13 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: did you try the rtl8812au-dkms from the repos? | 22:14 |
| Rexodus | Yes, but if I remember correctly, injection is not working. Monitor is though. | 22:15 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: OK, I know the dkms part is broken too | 22:15 |
| Rexodus | I guess we wait for a patch. It is not that important. I'm just irritated if I can't get somthing to work what shoukd work :P | 22:17 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: I just set mine down and tried the power change and it didn't take, must be the driver as I should be able to use 30db | 22:18 |

| Rexodus | Yeah, heard of that before. | 22:27 |
| Rexodus | And there is no way around that afaik. | 22:27 |
| Rexodus | I ordered the AR in the USA. Maybe they locked it for me... | 22:28 |
| jeremy31 | US on 2.4 allows 30db | 22:30 |
| Rexodus | In that case I locked it myself. I'll ask the coder of the driver if there is a solution. If you are still here by the time I get an answer, you'll be the first to know. | 22:32 |

| gueriLLaPunK | how do i download something from a site that says "download will start in 5,4,3,2,1" but the url doesn't end in a filename? via terminal | 22:36 |

| gueriLLaPunK | i tried wget -O (url) but it doesnt work and i dont know what to google to find the answer | 22:37 |
| Razathorn | gueriLLaPunK: You have to figure out where it's redirecting you to. Easiest way is to enable developer console in your browser and look at the URLs it tries to send you to | 22:38 |
| gueriLLaPunK | ooooh good idea | 22:38 |
| gueriLLaPunK | ok i inspect element of the 'download here' and its the same url as before | 22:40 |
| gueriLLaPunK | oh i found it under network | 22:41 |
| gueriLLaPunK | thanks Razathorn | 22:41 |
| Razathorn | NP gueriLLaPunK. Good to hear it worked. Now, if it doesn't work with WGET you may need to include headers or referrer info and or cookies, depending on what they did. | 22:44 |

| destinydriven | Hey guys, since updating to ubuntu server 20.04 I've been getting seg faults causing nginx to fail. I traced it down to this issue caused by libnginx-mod-http-perl : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/perl/+bug/1897561 | 22:55 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1897561 in perl (Ubuntu) "libperl.so.5.30.0 causes nginx to segfault" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 22:55 |
| destinydriven | My question is I'm not sure if I really need this module and what is the safest way of disabling it. Can I move the module file from modules-enabled to modules-available and see if that breaks anything? | 22:55 |

| oerheks | destinydriven, last comment i think, remove the symbol link .. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/perl/+bug/1897561/comments/5 | 22:57 |

| oerheks | faLUCE, it you had archtecture i386 enabled before upgrade, it would install wine 32 bit too, i think | 22:58 |
| destinydriven | oerheks, thing is, I don't have anything currently in modules-available so I don't think there is a sym link | 22:58 |
| oerheks | basicly all software are 32 bits, that is why. | 22:58 |
| faLUCE | oerheks: yeah, apt just warned me about that | 22:59 |
| Rexodus | jeremy31: According to 'sudo iw list | grep dBm' our devices are capable for 30 dBm on 5 GHz only. 2.4 is locked to 20 dBm. Correct me if I read that wrong. | 23:16 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: Looks that way but the iw reg get shows I should be able to transmit at 30dbm | 23:20 |
| gueriLLaPunK | Razathorn, good thing i didn'tr need the headers or referrer (not like i would know how to do it lol) but again appreciate the tip :) take care my dude | 23:21 |
| Rexodus | (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20), (N/A) (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 30), (0 ms), DFS (5735 - 5835 @ 80), (N/A, 30), (N/A) | 23:22 |
| Rexodus | jeremy31: Looks like you have more power ;) | 23:23 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: (2400 - 2472 @ 40), (N/A, 30), (N/A) less channels | 23:28 |
| Rexodus | jeremy31: I discovered that BO is not working. I have to use GY. My guess, there is something changed with the BO laws... | 23:39 |
| jeremy31 | Either that or it checks other settings before applying the regdomain | 23:40 |
| Rexodus | SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not permitted. | 23:41 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: did you bypass the predictable network interface naming? | 23:43 |
| Rexodus | jeremy31: ehhh? | 23:51 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: A USB wifi device in Ubuntu will have a name like wlx followed by the MAC address by default, not wlan0 | 23:52 |
| Rexodus | jeremy31: Rexodus: did you bypass the predictable network interface naming? < No | 23:53 |
| Rexodus | Not that I'm aware of anyway. | 23:53 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: are you using Ubuntu? | 23:54 |
| Rexodus | Ehhhh...:P | 23:54 |
| Rexodus | No. | 23:54 |
| Rexodus | But Debian is debian, right? :P | 23:55 |
| Rexodus | Anyway, this is not distro related. Everyone has problems with this. | 23:56 |
| Rexodus | Tried this on Ubuntu several times. But thats a couple of years ago. | 23:56 |
| Rexodus | Same problems as now. | 23:56 |
| jeremy31 | Rexodus: Might want to try asking at linuxquestions.com they have users from multiple distros and this issue might be from upstream of Ubuntu | 23:58 |
| Rexodus | Domain is for sale! | 23:59 |
| Rexodus | No kidding! | 23:59 |
| jeremy31 | whoops linuxquestions.org | 23:59 |
