| davido_ | Where does gnome cheese save its config? I'm trying to figure out why it always reverts to the wrong cam. | 01:29 |
|---|---|---|
| oerheks | Normally in ~/.config/<app> ... but Cheese stores its configuration data in the dconf configuration system rather than in plain files. | 01:31 |
| oerheks | install dconf-editor for this | 01:31 |
| oerheks | !info dconf-editor | 01:31 |
| davido_ | Thanks. | 01:31 |
| ubottu | dconf-editor (source: dconf-editor): simple configuration storage system - graphical editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.36.0-1 (focal), package size 306 kB, installed size 1212 kB | 01:31 |
| davido_ | Funny. So in dconf-editor org/gnome/cheese/camera it displays "HD Pro Webcam C920", but as soon as I start cheese, I see the dconf-editor setting immediately flip over to "Integrated Webcam HD" | 01:33 |
| davido_ | Sounds like a bug in Cheese, to not respect the dconf setting. | 01:33 |
| oerheks | does your laptop have a FN+camera key? | 01:35 |
| oerheks | maybe GUVCviewer does a better job | 01:36 |
| oerheks | !info guvcview | 01:37 |

| davido_ | Thanks, I'll give that a try. | 01:37 |
| oerheks | it surely makes ~/.config guvcview2 folder.. | 01:39 |
| davido_ | yeah, that seems preferable. Easier to see what's going on. | 01:39 |

| Xano_ | It's a peripheral, not a storage device | 03:06 |
| Xano_ | I can see it in lsusb, but the software to use it needs the /dev/... path | 03:06 |

| unixbsd | hello | 11:03 |
| unixbsd | I would like to download and to install ubuntu. how to download it over FTP ? I have only FTP on my machine. no http, no web browser | 11:03 |
| unixbsd | it there ftp.ubuntu.org or something? | 11:04 |
| tarzeau | unixbsd: curl? wget? | 11:05 |
| tarzeau | wget https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04/ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso | 11:05 |
| tarzeau | lftp can also do http/https, so can links2 | 11:06 |
| unixbsd | ftp ftp.nluug.nl <--- seems fine | 11:06 |
| unixbsd | man, you should think about ftp as well on your server | 11:07 |
| unixbsd | apt-get install proftpd | 11:07 |
| locsmif_work | smh | 11:08 |
| unixbsd | nope, on the ftp of nluug.nl there is no mirror of ubuntu | 11:08 |
| unixbsd | no idea where to find ubuntu ... :( | 11:08 |
| Squishy | unixbsd, you've already been told how to do this. Read what tarzeau said above. | 11:11 |
| guiverc | unixbsd, i know debian announced dropping FTP, I'd assume ubuntu did as well as it's rarely used these days | 11:11 |
| unixbsd | I asked for ftp, not http. lftp is http. | 11:12 |
| guiverc | unixbsd, try ftp.ubuntu.com | 11:14 |
| unixbsd | I just fount it at same time | 11:15 |
| unixbsd | ncftp ftp.ubuntu.com looks to work. wow super ! | 11:15 |
| unixbsd | thank you | 11:16 |
| Yahav | Heya, i'm looking for a VNC solution that will allow the actuall system users to login (with the same port, not a port for each user). Is there such thing? | 11:22 |

| FENG | awesome :) | 11:30 |
| vlm | something keeps filling up my pagecache i think is the name for it,the buffer/cache from command free -mh is always so high and my free memory is way to little,after i drop cache with "echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" its normal again,is there anyway i could configure ubuntu to not use as much ram for pagecache? | 11:32 |
| vlm | im not sure but it maybe started after i setup my zfs raid,though i did set arc_max size in conf file so should be ok? | 11:34 |
| vlm | seems ive might been looking at output of free -mh the wrong way, seems available ram is what to track and not free,so available should be available for applications already | 11:53 |
| tomreyn | Yahav: x11vnc is what you're probably looking for., works with X11 only, but the default login manager, gdm, defaults to wayland. set (uncomment, remove "#" character) WaylandEnable=false in /etc/gdm3/gdm.conf to make it use X. | 12:44 |
| Yahav | is it better than xrdp when it comes to performance? | 12:46 |
| tomreyn | rdp is a service implementation for a reverse engineered protocol, as far as i know. chances are it's not perfect. but i have no hard facts on performance. | 12:47 |
| tomreyn | *xrdp | 12:47 |
| tomreyn | vnc is the de facto standard protocol for GUI remote access on unixoid systems | 12:48 |
| Yahav | tomreyn i see. does x11vnc works with gnome? will it allow concurrent connections from different users each to his own env? | 12:51 |
| ennozdd | I am running ubuntu 20.04, I have a vga monitor and my graphics card has a dvi-d port. So I bought an adaptor and plugged it in but external monitor is not detected. xrandr says dvi-d 0 disconnected | 12:53 |
| tomreyn | Yahav: yes and yes, i would think. but have not tried myself. you will likely find a bunch of guides on this online. | 12:54 |
| tomreyn | ennozdd: vga is an analogous connection / protocol, whereas dvi is digital, these really differ a lot. if the monitor is vga only, you should replace it (it must be *very* old, too) and get one with a digital input instead. digital-to-digital adapters usually work fine. | 12:58 |
| ennozdd | tomreyn: yes it's a very old monitor. I even bought an adaptor to use it. Is it a technical thing I cannot use my analog monitor on a digital port? | 13:03 |
| unixbsd | I try to install ubuntu with debootstrap on a debian machine. the script /usr.... debootstrap with groovy (20.10) is missing. where to wget this script? | 13:03 |
| tomreyn | ennozdd: there could be a chance you'd find an adapter that'll work for you, i'm just saying i wouldn't waste time on trying to get this to work (unless you have a graphics card with vga-out) | 13:07 |
| tomreyn | unixbsd: https://packages.ubuntu.com/groovy-updates/all/debootstrap/filelist | 13:09 |
| tomreyn | i.e. not missing | 13:09 |
| unixbsd | I got it: I created the script. | 13:10 |
| unixbsd | I have made one myself http://termbin.com/frvk i.e. copying xenial script and replaced it by groovy. it does debootstrap on this debian machine. | 13:11 |
| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 13:19 |
| Yahav | Yeah, i'm having difficulties installing x11vnc, it seems like it requires an actual display or something. | 13:21 |
| unixbsd | apt-get install x11vnc; export DISPLAY=:0 ; x11vnc ; enjoy | 13:27 |
| Yahav | unixbsd: nop, didn't work: | 13:36 |
| Yahav | xauth: file /root/.Xauthority does not exist | 13:36 |
| Yahav | -auth guess: failed for display=':0' | 13:36 |
| unixbsd | the installer crashed. groovy. | 13:44 |
| unixbsd | groovy cannot install on sdc. :( | 13:45 |
| unixbsd | it seems to come from grub. maybe you should go for lilo to make sure that ubuntu works. people wont be capable, commonly to use debootstrap to install ubuntu. | 13:45 |
| Timmy | How can I make sure that a mirror is not manipulating content of its packages ? | 13:46 |
| tomreyn | by using apt to download these packages, because it will also verify the gpg signatures | 13:47 |
| Timmy | but where does these gpg signatures come from? Are they cached from a main server or they are also downloaded from same mirror? | 13:48 |
| tomreyn | they are made by whoever put together the original package archive | 13:49 |
| tomreyn | apt is configured to trust some signatories by default, unknown signatories would need to be manually trusted by you | 13:49 |
| tomreyn | so if some mirror admin were to crate a fake signature on a package, they'd need to do so with the original archive admin key, or you'd notice because then they'd need to use a different gpg key to sign, and apt would point this out. | 13:51 |
| tomreyn | i.e. apt would not download and install such packages and warn you that they are signed with an unknown (non-trusted) signature | 13:52 |
| === JanC_ is now known as JanC | ||
| Yahav | tomreyn, can you explain the part about gdm again please? i think the issues i'm having are related to that. | 13:57 |
| Timmy | tomreyn: ahah, thanks, that was very clear to understand | 14:01 |
| Timmy | I give you 11 from 10 | 14:01 |
| tomreyn | Yahav: this messgae suggests you were running something as the root user: xauth: file /root/.Xauthority does not exist | 14:03 |
| tomreyn | you should not run anything related to X as root, at least not when doing gdm + gnome-shell (current default ubuntu setup) | 14:03 |
| Yahav | i was trying to run x11vnc as root | 14:04 |
| Yahav | sudo x11vnc -auth guess -forever -loop -noxdamage -repeat -rfbauth /etc/x11vnc.pwd -rfbport 3029 -shared | 14:04 |
| unixbsd | apt to get legacy. legacy is great. apt-get install xserver-xorg-legacy will help with auth and permsà | 14:04 |
| Yahav | running as non-root result in the same output | 14:10 |
| unixbsd | how to find the codename in /etc of ubuntu? | 14:12 |
| tomreyn | /etc/os-release | 14:13 |
| unixbsd | su does not work | 14:14 |
| unixbsd | how to access to fdisk ? | 14:14 |
| unixbsd | fdisk command not found | 14:14 |
| tomreyn | oni ubuntu, use sudo to run tasks as superuser | 14:15 |
| tomreyn | not su | 14:15 |
| unixbsd | I did debootstrap | 14:15 |
| unixbsd | I have removed * in shadow file. | 14:15 |
| unixbsd | I have full acess, as regular #. where did you put fdisk? | 14:15 |
| tomreyn | you seem to make assumptions about fdisk being installed by debootstrap. | 14:16 |
| unixbsd | it is not by default? | 14:16 |
| rapids | tomreyn, you can still login as root using "su -" also on Ubuntu | 14:17 |
| tomreyn | sure, just not the recommended approach | 14:18 |
| tomreyn | unixbsd: i do not know whether or not debootstrap installs fdisk by default, but you can inspect its source code, which will tell | 14:19 |
| tomreyn | there are other, similar utilities it may have installed. cfdisk, sgdisk, parted | 14:19 |
| unixbsd | that's funny, there is nothing at all. | 14:20 |
| tomreyn | Yahav: so the notable difference between gnome (and gdm) compared to other desktops such as kde (and sddm) is that it runs as a restricted user. your x11vnc should probably also run as this restricted user. | 14:21 |
| tomreyn | unixbsd: why are you using debootstrap rather than a supported installation method? | 14:21 |
| unixbsd | because grooby iso ubuntu cannot install ubuntu onto the regular pendrive. | 14:22 |
| unixbsd | usually I install on the pendrive, but during instlalation, it fails. | 14:22 |
| tomreyn | generally, this would work. maybe your usb stick is special (broken?) | 14:25 |
| unixbsd | it works on debian and devuan, and all linux. it must come from the installer. I did /dev/sdc and with sdc1 with ext4, very classic. | 14:27 |
| tomreyn | fdisk is "Priority: important". debootstrap installs packages with "Priority: important" by default. so you should have fdisk installed | 14:27 |
| tomreyn | it installs to /sbin/fdisk | 14:28 |
| unixbsd | I will have to add more stuffs to debootstrap to get more things. this is up to come: debootstrap --no-check-gpg groovy --include=netbase,debootstrap,gcc,clang,make,login,passwd,wpasupplicant . http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu | 14:29 |
| tomreyn | Yahav: have you tried this? it looks like it could work https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers#x11vnc | 14:30 |
| tomreyn | "Have x11vnc start automatically via systemd in any environment (Vivid+)" is what you'd want | 14:30 |
| tomreyn | --no-check-gpg seems wrong to me | 14:32 |
| tomreyn | dunno why you need gcc + clang + make, but you'll know. | 14:33 |
| tomreyn | unixbsd: ^ | 14:34 |
| unixbsd | because gcc is broken | 14:34 |
| unixbsd | clang gives bins to compile i..e stdio.h | 14:34 |
| tomreyn | so "gcc is broken", that's why you need that *and* clang? | 14:36 |
| tomreyn | well, you'll work it out. | 14:37 |
| unixbsd | it has the link to add the stdio.h into it. | 14:38 |
| unixbsd | there are some bugs into gcc, but clang is more reliable. | 14:39 |
| unixbsd | With arrays especially. | 14:39 |
| === GSMarquis77 is now known as GSMarquis | ||
| unixbsd | ah yeah | 14:44 |
| unixbsd | there is no clang into the archive.ubuntu ... ;) bit weird? | 14:44 |
| unixbsd | Why not clang? ubuntu has only GCC? | 14:44 |
| unixbsd | never heard of clang? this is very popular compiler. | 14:46 |
| tomreyn | unixbsd: you're into quick jumping to conclusions, wfrom what i can tell. clang is in ubuntu. | 14:52 |

| xtragreen | brasero no longer can detect blank dvds | 17:02 |
| xtragreen | desktop file manager had not been started, yet it always mounts the blank dvds, preventing brasero from accessing the dvd | 17:03 |
| xtragreen | Is their a way to fix this ? thx | 17:04 |
| xtragreen | Is their a way to keep gnome file manager from automatically running on 20.04 ? | 17:06 |
| xtragreen | If brasero no longer works in 20.04, is there a dvd burner app that will? | 17:07 |
| luna_ | good question i mostly just burn isos with wodim but maybe someone else here uses brasero | 17:08 |
| xtragreen | wodim is new to me. is it a stock app in 20.04 ? | 17:09 |
| luna_ | don't remembered if i installed it via apt or if its there | 17:09 |
| luna_ | *remember | 17:09 |
| xtragreen | yet another worthless distro !!! | 17:18 |

| unixbsd | the only way to install groovy ubuntu is to erase the whole disk. | 17:45 |
| unixbsd | man, it needs to get improved in next release. | 17:45 |
| leftyfb | unixbsd: I do not think that is true | 17:55 |
| unixbsd | I have tested many times. | 17:58 |
| unixbsd | sdc2 or sda7 wont get grub to install. | 17:58 |
| leftyfb | unixbsd: ok, now you are describing an issue completely beyond saying " the only way to install groovy ubuntu is to erase the whole disk" | 17:59 |
| leftyfb | unixbsd: what you should have said is "when I try to install Ubuntu 20.10, I'm having trouble installing GRUB to sdc2 or sda7" | 18:00 |
| leftyfb | unixbsd: it sounds like the issue is surrounding your pretty specific non-standard configuration and not the releases inability to install any way other than to wipe the disk | 18:01 |
| leftyfb | unixbsd: feel free to go into detail about your unique configuration(hardware, distro's, partitions, etc) and what it is you're trying to accomplish (boot order, which distro's, etc) | 18:02 |

| SynfulAck | anyone use discord and when you go to copy an image to a channel it prints the file location? drag and drop is the workaround. Not sure if its related to installing it via snap. | 18:59 |
| squirrel | i have a noname tablet that i want to try to put ubuntu on, should i go with ubuntu desktop or ubuntu touch? | 19:04 |
| leftyfb | !touch | squirrel | 19:05 |
| ubottu | squirrel: Information about the mobile port of the Ubuntu platform (formely Ubuntu Touch) for Phone and Tablet is available here: https://ubports.com/. Support and discussion in #ubports | 19:05 |
| squirrel | right, so which one should i go with | 19:06 |
| leftyfb | squirrel: as the post says, you you ask in #ubports | 19:07 |
| leftyfb | squirrel: it's not an officially supported platform anymore. | 19:07 |
| squirrel | i don't think the post say that | 19:08 |
| squirrel | but i'll ask | 19:08 |
| leftyfb | " Support and discussion in #ubports" | 19:09 |
| squirrel | well at this point i don't need support or discussion of ubuntu touch, i need choose the system to try | 19:10 |
| Onepamopa | guys HELP | 19:14 |
| Onepamopa | how to undo "rm -f *" | 19:14 |
| leftyfb | Onepamopa: you restore from backup | 19:14 |
| leftyfb | Onepamopa: you could try some data recovery tools, but they're not guaranteed to work: https://itsfoss.com/recover-deleted-files-linux/ | 19:15 |
| SynfulAck | also why is it you cant do `sudo apt search *something*` . get a regex compilation error. Just wanted to search everything with that string | 19:27 |
| leftyfb | pipe it to grep with the regex | 19:27 |
| leftyfb | also https://stackoverflow.com/a/38955470 | 19:28 |
| SynfulAck | leftyfb, thx, not sure how to pipe it tho | 19:29 |
| leftyfb | SynfulAck: *something* is not valid bash regex | 19:30 |
| leftyfb | SynfulAck: searching for "something" will do what you think "*something*" will do | 19:31 |
| SynfulAck | leftyfb, i get two different results doing it that way | 19:32 |
| leftyfb | SynfulAck: can you be more specific? | 19:33 |
| SynfulAck | sudo apt search gping* vs searching "gping" | 19:33 |
| linext | what's the last version of ubuntu to support i686? | 19:51 |
| leftyfb | linext: technically, 19.04 has a netboot installer and 32bit packages. I THINK 19.10 had some packages but not the netboot installer. 18.04 is the last supported release with the netboot installer. | 20:00 |
| leftyfb | linext: 17.10 was the last release to have a server iso installer. 17.04 was the last release to have a 32bit desktop iso installer. Neither of those are supported. 16.04 is the last supported release to have a 32bit desktop and server iso installer | 20:03 |
| linext | is it possible to i386 to a USB flash drive? | 20:03 |
| leftyfb | linext: As I said, 16.04 is the last supported version to have the iso needed to install from usb ... unless you are capable of building your own usb installer with the 18.04 netboot files(unlikely) | 20:05 |
| SynfulAck | leftyfb, oh you know what. I think this feature is already built into `apt search` | 20:05 |
| leftyfb | linext: you could install 16.04 and upgrade to 18.04. You'll be stuck with 18.04 | 20:05 |
| linext | i just want to test xonotic on linux to see if it's working on a old laptop | 20:10 |
| linext | the laptop is xp era | 20:10 |
| leftyfb | linext: why bother? 32bit is an unsupported architecture | 20:11 |
| squirrel | speaking of 32 bit, what's the closest to ubuntu (in terms of support) can i get for a system with 32 bit uefi? | 20:32 |
| jeremy31 | squirrel: I think there is some hack to get grub on 32 bit UEFI | 20:37 |
| squirrel | i looked it up and it sounds way too complicated | 20:39 |
| garrettkajmowicz | How do I get 20.04 to install overtop of an existing installation using MD RAID without deleting the existing partitions? When I use the legacy installer, it recognizes that there are raid partitions present, but doesn't present them as a unit for the installation target. Going into the RAID menu provides only the options to create or delete RAID | 20:46 |
| garrettkajmowicz | devices, not use an existing one. | 20:46 |
| genii | garrettkajmowicz: If you enter one of the other available terminals during install by ctrl-alt-F2 ( or F3) you can manually insert the raid kernel driver required ( raid0, raid1, raid10, or raid456) and then switch back to installer before it gets to the detecting of disks | 20:58 |
| garrettkajmowicz | genii: The md device is shown (/dev/md-127 in this case for some reason). Yet it never shows up in the list. Do I also need the raid driver if the md device is already assembled? | 21:01 |
| garrettkajmowicz | I'm going to disconnect and try (system to upgrade is my firewall/server device) | 21:08 |
| jeremy31 | Is there a way to add a command like "setpcie -s 02:00.0 COMMAND=0x02" to Grub? | 21:34 |
| tomreyn | jeremy31: what is "setpcie" a command to? to grub? or is this a command you'd run on a booted linux system? | 21:58 |
| tomreyn | can't find anything about it | 21:58 |
| tomreyn | maybe you mean "setpci"? | 21:59 |
| jeremy31 | tomreyn: it is setpci | 22:00 |
| tomreyn | so i guess this needs a booted linux | 22:00 |
| jeremy31 | tomreyn: there is a setpci.mod in /boot/grub/... | 22:00 |
| tomreyn | oh i msee | 22:01 |
| jeremy31 | tomreyn: something like in https://askubuntu.com/a/1152648/300665 | 22:01 |
| tomreyn | yes, that's what i'd assume then, too | 22:02 |
| tomreyn | just a command on a separate line on a grub menu entry | 22:02 |
| tomreyn | or tather before the menu | 22:03 |
| tomreyn | *rather | 22:03 |
| jeremy31 | Seems to be an issue with Lenovo E41-25 and ath10k_pci and memory allocation | 22:03 |

| tomreyn | 19.10 would be eol, but the other report looks like it's probably still a problem. it just got closed for lack of logs | 22:13 |
| tomreyn | maybe reopen and use apport-collect or, better, file a new one using ubuntu-bug, then add textual reference to the other ones. | 22:14 |
| tomreyn | but then you know all of this- ;-) | 22:15 |
| jeremy31 | I am working with another person on a very similar issue, booting 5.10.2 doesn't work, supposedly the setpci command would work and I figure it might work better in grub | 22:16 |
| tomreyn | i suspect what you set there in grub may not last for linux | 22:18 |
| jeremy31 | Most of what I find involves Nvidia, thanks for your thoughts | 22:20 |
| tomreyn | Good luck working it out! | 22:23 |

| stephenmac98 | Hey guys. I have a user "stephen" who has access to the shutdown command locally, without sudo, because of /etc/shutdown.allow, but the same user is not able to call shutdown over ssh. How do I enable access to shutdown over ssh? | 23:37 |
| summonner | just add the user to visudo and make the command explicit as their only sudo command available | 23:43 |
| summonner | make sure you don't make it NOPASSWD - that would be a bad idea | 23:44 |
