jayjo-tomreyn: wow! thanks. For something like init'ing a user on a fresh installation, should I use a custom salt?00:11
tomreynjayjo-: you should use one that's (securely) randomly generated00:13
tomreynnowadays, we should probably be using the    $id$rounds=yyy$salt$encrypted   format rather than the    $id$salt$encrypted   though. but then i don't know whether that would work with cloud-init00:15

moonfmdesireHi. I have 40 gigs for my /drive and am almost out of space00:24
moonfmdesireI installed last week and have no clue where all the space is going00:25
moonfmdesireThis keeps happening when I install Ubuntu00:25
moonfmdesirenormall 40 gigs is overkill and I have a lot of space, but for whatever reason, my / drive gets gobbled.00:26
moonfmdesirecould be malware/spyware/runaway porcesses00:26
moonfmdesireprocesses00:26
TJ-moonfmdesire: analyse where the space is used: "sudo du -xhd 2 / | sort -h"00:28
moonfmdesireTJ-, https://pastebin.com/FbNudA6t00:29
TJ-moonfmdesire: that shows 24G used; most is 16G under /usr/00:30
TJ-moonfmdesire: the unexpected ones are: /opt/nvidia/ and /var/cuda-repo-ubuntu2004-11-2-local/ using 3.5G between them00:31
TJ-moonfmdesire: /opt/resolve/ using 3.5G is unexpected too00:31
moonfmdesireTJ-, When I right click my home drive in thunar, it shows 11 gigs of 40 available00:31
moonfmdesireSorry, not home, root, I mean00:32
TJ-moonfmdesire: what does "df -h" report ?00:32
moonfmdesireTJ-, https://pastebin.com/tKVds9mC00:33
TJ-moonfmdesire: 5.2G under /opt/ and 3.8G under /usr/local/ are the ones that stand out as not part of a standard installation, and are presumably added by you from external sources00:33
moonfmdesireI have used Resolve for years and have not had it eat hard drive space like that00:34
TJ-moonfmdesire: /dev/nvme0n1p2   38G   24G   12G  68% /00:34
moonfmdesireCuda is just drivers I need for video production00:34
moonfmdesireWhich should not be going the way t is00:34
moonfmdesireit is00:35
moonfmdesireDrivers shoudl not eat that much space00:35
TJ-moonfmdesire: it'd have been better use LVM rather than static partitions, then you could have moved space around / extended the rootfs00:35
moonfmdesireTJ-, If I wait a week, that space will be eaten up00:35
moonfmdesireI could have a terabyte / drive and it will get eaten up00:36
moonfmdesireThis problem is unique to Ubuntu00:36
moonfmdesireAnd is recent00:36
TJ-moonfmdesire: there's 754G under /home unused ... mainly wasted, which could have been used by rootfs or a separate mount for /opt/00:36
TJ-moonfmdesire: those are NOT ubuntu supplied packages; presumably you installed them manually00:36
moonfmdesireTJ-, No...a root drive that requires more than 40 gigs is a waste00:36
moonfmdesireA large home drive is not wasted space00:37
moonfmdesireI have installed these packages before and they do not eat space like that00:37
TJ-moonfmdesire: you're adding GBs to /opt/ and /var/ - those are eating the space00:37
moonfmdesireThis is new.00:37
TJ-moonfmdesire: so anaylse why that is happening00:37
moonfmdesireIf there are no readily available answers, it is better to switch distros00:38
moonfmdesireSomething that can handle nvidea drivers00:38
TJ-moonfmdesire: e.g. drill down using "sudo du -xhd 2 /opt/resolve | sort -h"00:38
hggdhmoonfmdesire: Ubuntu does not install anything under /opt or /usr/local. You have ~9GB of things there. Why are you blaming a distro?00:39
TJ-moonfmdesire: drill down on those other paths too /opt/nvidia/ /var/cuda-repo-ubuntu2004-11-2-local and /usr/local00:39
moonfmdesirehttps://pastebin.com/aMDZsKkF00:39
moonfmdesirehggdh, Because I have installed these items before and not had these specific issues00:40
TJ-moonfmdesire: whatever resolve is, it mainly seems to be 2.3G /opt/resolve/libs00:40
moonfmdesireTJ-, It is video editing software00:41
moonfmdesireTJ-, That sounds right00:41
TJ-moonfmdesire: if you want to graphically explore, install the package xdiskusage and then run "sudo xdiskusage /" and explore00:44
moonfmdesireTJ-, okay, thanks.00:46
moonfmdesireIt would be agreed, however, that 40 gigs for root is MORE than enough...00:52

elichai2Hi, fresh ubuntu 20.04, I connected a eth cable, and networkManager recognized it, but I get `network unreachable ` in pings and `ip a` shows me I have no IP10:12
elichai2I tried looking at `/etc/network/interfaces` but it doesn't exist OoO10:13
locsmif_workelichai2: but you get an IP on the same network when you connect with other devices? Which is the DHCP server?10:25
elichai2yes, my laptop(arch) is connected to the same network and works properly10:25
locsmif_workWhat's your device name?10:26
locsmif_workelichai2: you could check /proc/net/dev10:28

locsmif_workAre you running it with sudo?10:34
elichai2yes10:37
locsmif_workelichai2: you'll have to go through the motions10:45
locsmif_workTry a different cable, boot a live USB from different distro, etc.10:45
elichai2I have an IP now :O10:46
elichai2I guess it took the dhclient some time10:46
elichai2But I still get destination host unreachable when pinging10:46
locsmif_workelichai2: you need more than an ip though, you also need a gaetway and a route10:50
locsmif_workYuo are supposed to receive this through your DHCP request10:51
elichai2k, i'll do the whole debug cycle10:51
locsmif_workHowever, it might be that your network/cable is faulty10:51
locsmif_workCan you ping your gateway by ip address?10:51
locsmif_workDo you get failures?10:51
locsmif_workWhat are your ethernet error statistics?10:53
locsmif_workip -s link show10:55
locsmif_workThere shouldn't be much error in there if at all. If there are many errors, something is broken, probably the cable10:55

Koffajust upgraded to ubuntu 20.04 and the switch to snap breaks my ~/.config/chromium-{foo,bar,baz}/ style setup (--app-data-dir=...). Tried to google for a solution but maybe this is faster. How should the data-dirs be setup under ~/snap/ to get several _totally_ isolated instances of chromium running (separate chromium profiles is not the answer)?16:49
tomreynKoffa: i assume that for such changes to become possible, you'll have to resort to a 3rd party apt packaged chromium16:56
rneesekoffa you have to desinatll chromium and reinstall via snap16:57
KoffaI have the snap, just trying to figure out the ~/snap/chromium/[what,goes,where] for the separate data-dirs16:58
ioriahttps://forum.snapcraft.io/t/two-chromium-profiles-for-one-user/5716/6   check this maybe Koffa17:00
KoffaThat .../current/ is a moving target? maybe under common, this needs to survive updates so I don't have to be copying stuff every week :)17:04
Koffahave to test, thx17:04
rneesethanks for time guys bbl back to other project17:15
ograKoffa, snaps copy their user data forward when the binary ets updated, after that copying the "current" symlink gets moved to the currently running version, that way we can make sure that only configs that work with a specific binary are used (you could "snap revert chromium" to go back to a former version, the "current" symlink would follow along)17:27
ograyou can safely assume that ~/snap/<snapname>/current always points to the correct dir17:28
Koffaif that's so, why was the ~/.config/chromium/ (the "default" dir) copied to ~/snap/chromium/common/ and not under the /current/?17:28
ograthe structure underneath the dir is identical to whatever you have under $HOME ... for snaps the "~/snap/<snapname>/current" dir is actually identical to $HOME (per-app homes))17:29
ograoh ... well, common is the dir that doesnt get copied ... typically holdin only unversioned stuff ... it is rarely used, you'd have to ask the snap packager ("osomon" in #ubuntu-desktop if he is around ... though note canonical shuts down the last two weeks of the year)17:30
ogranot sure why he picked it that way ...17:31
ograbut probably because there is so much cache data that he didnt want it duplicated on disk17:31
Koffaor triplicated :)17:31
ograright 🙂17:31
Koffanow it's duplicated, nothing cleaned up .config :)17:31
ograthe cost of rollback17:31
ograyou can limit it to two copis actually ... (globally for all snaps though)17:32
Koffagot it working in common now, I'll test on my own and make a decision based on more than a gut feeling before updating my work laptop :)17:32
ogra"snap set system refresh.retain=N" ... where N can be anything equal to or greater than 217:33
ogra(defaults to 3 as you noticed)17:34
Faisal_12_ff2Hello17:34
Faisal_12_ff2ffd17:36
ograi'd also recommend "snap set system experimental.refresh-app-awareness=true" ... that prevents snapd from updating the app while it is running (which can have odd side effects)17:36
lotuspsychjeKoffa ogra perhaps bug #1849693 ?17:37

xissburgthis is something that actually would happen from time to time... it would once in a while get stuck in that /dev/sda2 black screen and do nothing and I had to reset the PC and then it'd boot normally.

tomreynthis seems like a ##windows question18:19
Sven_vBhi :) I have a serial link (USB UART pair) with agetty and auto-login on the other side. is there a way to integrate that with the SSH client for use in batch mode? maybe with a proxy helper? I'd like to run a command remotely, get its output, and then the client shall exit. so before I go script some DIY solution, maybe there's an established way already.18:20
xissburghmm hyperv is a windows thing... now I'm even more confused18:23

smurfkeHello in a system unit I need to reference this event:  debian systemd[1]: Mounted /mnt/externalstorage.23:30
smurfkeit's coming from a line in /etc/fstab23:31
smurfkehow can I figure out the correct name to put into After= on another system unit?23:31
guivercWhat OS & release smurfke23:32
smurfkeguiverc: debian 10 buster23:33
guivercsmurfke, Debian is not Ubuntu, nor flavor of Ubuntu23:33
smurfkeI'm sorry Ubuntu latest*23:33
smurfkehabit23:33
smurfkedocumentation stating the following: "Mounts listed in /etc/fstab will be converted into native units dynamically at boot"23:33
guivercUse a debian support channel for Debian questions please23:34
smurfkeok23:34
TJ-systemd-fstab-generator reads /etc/fstab and creates runtime .mount units for each - you can use that as a Requires=/After= and so on23:36
TJ- "ls /run/systemd/generator/*.mount" will list those mount units23:36
smurfkeTJ- great. Thank you!23:37
smurfkeAlso I wonder,  Requires=/mnt/externalstorage AND After=/mnt/externalstorage, are both needed?23:37
smurfkedoesn't one render the other useless23:38
TJ-smurfke: you'd use ...=mnt-externalstorage.mount  (/ in paths is replaced with - )23:39
TJ-smurfke: I was giving a basic example; you might want Before= or others :)23:40
smurfkethanks again. Yes I know but in fact I need the system unit to trigger only after the mount has happend. So if I only put in After= that would be enough right?23:42
smurfkeI'm thinking After= implicillty renders Requires= obsolete23:42
TJ-smurfke: well no, since After= could be days after23:44
TJ-and it won't start the mount if the mount isn't already active; whereas if you want to "systemctl start myunit.service" you need a Requires= to ensure the mount it started as well23:44
smurfkecool thanks23:45
smurfkeI'll put both of them in that case23:45
