| phillipsjk256 | Well, open VPN running on you router is just going to encrypty your LAN traffic, unless I am misunderstanding. Youo need a VPN service to get a tunnel to another country. | 06:00 |
| Tabmow | sanav: you need to establish a vpn connection to a remote vpn server in another location which doesn't block those websites. Then tunnel your internet traffic through the vpn. | 06:01 |

| slowpoke | hi, how can I find a list of withdrawn packages, and ideally downgrade them to supported versions? | 08:10 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: Ubuntu doesn't 'withdraw' packages from a release. New releases may drop a package that was previously in the archive though | 08:13 |
| slowpoke | TJ-: pretty sure it does so with kernel images | 08:13 |
| slowpoke | which may hold regressions | 08:14 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: we release upgrades to fix bugs but there's no 'downgrade' | 08:15 |
| slowpoke | uh ok, a colleague of mine is trying to get a pr into our infra dealing with "withdrawn" packages, hence why I'm asking | 08:16 |
| slowpoke | but yeah, it's likely about packages that are not part of the archive anymore | 08:17 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: in terms of kernel releases, we generally have two tracks. The kernel version at release and a newer kernel from later releases that are effectively backported via the HWE (HardWare Enablement) packages | 08:17 |
| slowpoke | this is not about HWE | 08:17 |
| slowpoke | this is about packages that are are only anchored in the local dpkg database, but not in a remote repository anymore | 08:18 |
| slowpoke | the scenario seems to be that we updated to a kernel version that was then removed from the archive | 08:18 |
| TJ- | package versions that have been upgraded are removed from the archive servers, eventually | 08:18 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: if the package version moved on and up that would make sense. | 08:19 |
| StarOnD | Hello , I was having issues with ubuntu 20.04.1 most of which disappeared after I did sudo apt update and upgrade. I am still having issues with the shell taking a very long time to load in the terminal. I wish to wipe my disk and re install ubuntu. How can I get the LATEST upgrades for ubuntu 20.04.1 | 08:19 |
| === Neffscape1 is now known as Neffscape | ||
| TJ- | slowpoke: e.g. linux-image-generic-5.4.0 -> 5.4.1 (you install) -> 5.4.2 (5.4.1 no longer available( | 08:19 |
| slowpoke | TJ-: ok, so we installed linux-headers-4.15.0-126 on 2020-12-03, it went missing from the archive on 2020-12-10 and a new version only arrived on 2020-12-13 | 08:20 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: not sure what you're trying to do but this may help you. The packages and related source are still available via Launchpad | 08:20 |
| slowpoke | the colleague insists to remove the package that went missing from archive, to be kinda in sync again | 08:21 |
| slowpoke | they have a monitoring alert for when packages are not in the archive anymore and there is no upgrade that is | 08:22 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: is that for 18.04 ? | 08:22 |
| slowpoke | yes, but the very same scenario happend with linux-headers-5.4.0-56 from 20.04 | 08:23 |
| slowpoke | same dates | 08:23 |
| TJ- | would you credit it? launchpad.net is timing out now I'm trying to look! | 08:24 |
| slowpoke | credit? I don't understand | 08:24 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: it's a british saying | 08:25 |
| TJ- | "would you credit it?" aka "would you believe it, just when I need it it breaks" | 08:26 |
| slowpoke | lmao :) | 08:26 |
| chalarm | hey TJ, how are you? | 08:26 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: I'm checking with the sysadmins now to find out why launchpad.net is timing out, then we can look at the publishing history for those packages | 08:27 |
| slowpoke | TJ-: ah, that would be interesting. thanks for indulging me! | 08:27 |
| StarOnD | is there a way to download ubuntu 20.04.1 so that I do not need to do sudo apt update and upgrade ? | 08:28 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: sometimes a package is withdrawn rapidly when a widespread regression is detected to avoid causing more installs problems | 08:29 |
| slowpoke | yeah, I'm expecting it was something like that | 08:29 |
| slowpoke | I can find reports of amdgpu dkms fails on that kernel for example | 08:29 |
| slowpoke | like, I think if we could find out the reason for why a withdraw happened we'd be in a much better position to reason about our situation | 08:34 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: I'm looking at "apt-get changelog linux-headers-generic" to get a clue whilst waiting for launchpad to wake up | 08:35 |
| slowpoke | make sense | 08:35 |
| slowpoke | to quote that famous tv series … doesn't look like anything to me | 08:37 |
| slowpoke | TJ-: so this is likely the page https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+publishinghistory | 08:43 |
| slowpoke | the regression was "Raid data loss LP: #1907262" afaict | 08:43 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1907262 in linux (Ubuntu Groovy) "raid10: discard leads to corrupted file system" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1907262 | 08:43 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: from "apt-get changelog linux-headers-4.15.0-128" it looks like there was a severe regression in -125 affecting raid10 which had to be reverted in -128 | 08:44 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: snap :) | 08:44 |
| slowpoke | i had a hard time finding the correct history with apt changelog :) | 08:45 |
| TJ- | yes; it takes some digging to id the correct package to check. I did "apt list 'linux-headers-4.15.0*' | less " then browsed to find the latest after -126 and then used "apt-get changelog" on that package name | 08:47 |
| slowpoke | so if we would have been affected we likely should've downgraded | 08:50 |
| slowpoke | since there was no upgrade available at the time | 08:50 |
| slowpoke | (which is reasonable) | 08:50 |
| underslept | Is there a guide to configure binutils | 09:03 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: I still can't get to the publishing history so it isn't clear when the replacement was published. I'd guess the replacement would have been in bionic-proposed immediately but unless you have that pocket enabled you would effectively see versions step-back | 09:05 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: here's the URL for the publishing history https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+publishinghistory | 09:07 |
| slowpoke | TJ-: looks like the one I posted 25m ago :) | 09:07 |
| TJ- | slowpoke: oh aye! | 09:08 |
| TJ- | I've been doing other things :) | 09:08 |
| slowpoke | np | 09:08 |
| slowpoke | I will just recommend that we look more into why things were withdrawn ig | 09:09 |
| chalarm | TJ-: ^-^ your also ignoring me. | 09:09 |
| TJ- | I'm surprised such obviously invasive patches weren't subjected to manual thorough testing | 09:10 |

| zetheroo | linuxmint: ok then grab the 16.04.6 ISO | 13:03 |
| linuxmint | ok. the container looks good too. | 13:04 |
| nononoha | I am asking again, as the message before got no traction- how can I find the maintainers of a specific package? | 13:09 |
| nononoha | There is a bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/command-not-found/+bug/1824000) that is yet to be addressed for quite a while in the command-not-found package | 13:09 |

| adamretter | Hi there, on Ubuntu 18 I am setting some rules via `arptables`, but I am finding that they are lost when I reboot. I have Google'd a bunch, but have found no information on how to preserve the rules across a reboot. Can someone tell me how to preserve the rules? | 13:38 |
| iamtheworstdev | it's been about a decade since I've tried this.. is SANE still the norm for scanning a documenter over a network | 13:42 |

| elcar | Hi; I extended the sda disk in Vmware vCenter from 20 GB to 30 GB, but lsblk still says it's 20 GB. How can say the distro to denote added space without restarting? | 14:11 |
| Seveas | elcar: try partprobe | 14:14 |
| elcar | It rescans partitions, doesn't it? (not the disk) | 14:14 |
| Seveas | hmm, true | 14:16 |
| Seveas | elcar: https://serverfault.com/questions/306737/how-do-i-get-centos-vm-to-re-read-its-increased-disk-size-without-a-reboot has some tips | 14:18 |
| Seveas | even though that says centos, that should be applicable to ubuntu too | 14:18 |
| Seveas | iamtheworstdev: simple-scan tends to work for me | 14:22 |
| iamtheworstdev | for networked scanners or physically attached scanners (usb) | 14:24 |
| Seveas | iamtheworstdev: networked | 14:24 |
| Seveas | adamretter: install itables-persistent and netfilter-persistent, then create a new netfilter-persistent plugin based on /usr/share/netfilter-persistent/plugins.d/15-ip4tables to save/restore arp tables. I'm surprised there isn't such a plugin yet :) | 14:27 |
| Seveas | nononoha: https://launchpad.net/command-not-found says it's https://launchpad.net/~command-not-found-developers | 14:28 |
| TJ- | {ip,arp,eb}tables are all deprecated and replaced so not much point | 14:29 |
| Seveas | True | 14:30 |
| Seveas | I should really learn nft sometime soon :) | 14:31 |
| TJ- | with eBPF there's some amazing power and flexibility being unleashed | 14:32 |
| iamtheworstdev | Seveas, any chance you had to edit any sane files for that? | 14:33 |
| Seveas | iamtheworstdev: nope. I just start it and it sees my hp scanner and I can scan. Probably some bonjour/avahi magic going on there | 14:33 |
| TJ- | iamtheworstdev: for HP devices, you'd need hplip drivers installed | 14:35 |
| TJ- | iamtheworstdev: for other scanner devices, usually they'll need some driver to interface with SANE backend scanner | 14:36 |
| Seveas | I have hp network scanners, and indeed do have hplip installed. Don't remember installing it, but this box is oooolllllldddddd | 14:36 |
| iamtheworstdev | reckon my problem is it's a dell scanner.. so at best maybe a rebranded brother | 14:37 |
| TJ- | iamtheworstdev: can you at least discover it's IP address on the network using a tool like nmap, or "avahi-browse -art" (which reports multicast DNS adverts) | 14:38 |
| iamtheworstdev | yea it works fine.. I'm just tired of rebooting into windows to scan something | 14:38 |
| iamtheworstdev | txt = ["Scan=T" "Fax=F" "Duplex=T" "Color=T" "UUID=735e8a00-1dd2-11b2-bed5-080037d375a6" "TBCP=T" "Binary=T" "usb_MDL=C2665dnf Color MFP" "usb_MFG=Dell" "adminurl=http://Dell-C2665dnf-D375A6.local/setting/setairprint.htm" "pdl=application/postscript,application/pdf,application/vnd.hp-PCLXL,application/vnd.hp-PCL,image/urf" "product=(Dell C2665dnf Color MFP)" "ty=Dell-C2665dnf-D375A6" "qtotal=1" "note=" "txtvers=1"] | 14:39 |
| iamtheworstdev | that's from avahi | 14:39 |
| TJ- | iamtheworstdev: if you visit the admin URL *sometimes* there'll be a link to driver downloads | 14:40 |
| iamtheworstdev | probably just easier to set up an SMB share and let the scanner just dump it there lol | 14:41 |
| zen_coder | Can I setupl via the desktop installer of ubuntu an LVM partiion where the root and home partition are separate LVM volumes? | 14:44 |
| phillipsjk256 | Did youtry the manual partitoning menu? Had no luck setting up an MD RAID device, and had to use the server installer. | 14:46 |
| zen_coder | when I install afterwards the desktop of ubuntu, what do I get? | 14:48 |
| zen_coder | the minimal version of the ubuntu desktop iso? | 14:48 |
| phillipsjk256 | zen_coder, not sure, the standard one did not boot for me. Had to use the legacy one that does not set up a GUI. | 14:50 |
| zen_coder | which version did you installed? | 14:51 |
| zen_coder | 18.04? | 14:52 |
| phillipsjk256 | 20.04 | 14:52 |
| adamretter | Seveas: I am not familiar with netfilter-persistent, at the moment we have been using UFW (systemd?) out of the box. Would this work ok with that? | 14:55 |
| Seveas | no idea, I've never used ufw | 15:01 |
| HickorySmokedBac | Is there a linux tool for setting up wifi connections over shell? | 15:07 |
| HickorySmokedBac | Or should I hook it up and look GUI ? | 15:08 |
| coconut | HickorySmokedBac, dunno for sure, but probably nmcli is what you want | 15:11 |
| HickorySmokedBac | coconut: Seems to be about right, but I'm not finding a "hey look here what the networks are, which one you want to put in the password for?" easy option | 15:11 |
| leftyfb | HickorySmokedBac: if you are running a Desktop Environment, use the GUI | 15:13 |
| coconut | HickorySmokedBac, well, you can at least scan them with: nmcli device wifi list | 15:13 |
| HickorySmokedBac | coconut: I see it listed, is it possible to set it on up? | 15:13 |
| coconut | never done that yet from nmcli, but i guess yes | 15:14 |
| HickorySmokedBac | then yank the NIC cord | 15:14 |
| coconut | HickorySmokedBac, tried?: sudo nmcli dev wifi connect <ssid> password 'mypassword' | 15:16 |
| HickorySmokedBac | coconut: secrets were required but not provided? | 15:18 |
| coconut | i have to pass on that | 15:20 |
| Minall | Hello Ubuntu Community! | 15:20 |
| coconut | sorry | 15:21 |
| Minall | How does ubuntu-shell compares to gnome-shell aside from that the first installs apps, adds some gnome extensions and theme?... I mean, is there some 'improvements' that are a great reason to use this Environment ? | 15:21 |
| johny181 | Can I disable all filters and issue a printout in raw format from system text editor? | 15:26 |
| HickorySmokedBac | coconut: maybe I should just go hook it up to a monitor and try GUI | 15:27 |
| coconut | HickorySmokedBac, that does make things earier :) | 15:28 |
| motz | hi, sometimes my ipv4 goes down and just ipv6 works. why? | 15:41 |
| HickorySmokedBac | I tossed a HDMI cable on it and put it on a TV, set it up fast | 15:41 |
| phillipsjk256 | My 500MB /boot partition is full already! | 15:43 |
| zen_coder | is there a webpage explaining what sizes are good for /boot root dir and home when installing ubuntu? | 15:43 |
| * phillipsjk256 did not use LVM either. | 15:44 | |
| oxek | phillipsjk256: did you do anything special to make it full? | 15:47 |
| oxek | 500MB should be good enough for 3 kernels | 15:47 |
| oxek | I ask because I made my /boot 512MB and hope it will be large enough | 15:48 |
| Minall | How is Ubuntu compared to Debian about system administration... I mean, more than the packages are outdated and more 'stable', Ubuntu appears to have more programs and configurations like AppArmor, and other system configurations, | 15:48 |
| horantru[m] | <Minall "How is Ubuntu compared to Debian"> I think ubuntu is better | 15:50 |
| phillipsjk256 | oxek, tried to upgrade, also installed the Ubuntu Studio task, which installed a low latency kernel, also using generic kernels. | 15:52 |
| DJones | Minall: Thats probably somethine youshould ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or maybe #ubunu-discuss This channel is more aimed at specific supprt issues | 15:54 |
| phillipsjk256 | So looking into unstalling old unused kernel, maybe not using the generic kernels. | 15:54 |
| oxek | phillipsjk256: upgrades always keep previous 2 kernels, so you can end up with 3 kernels. If you also have the realtime kernels in addition to that, then it is possible you could end up with 6 kernel versions, which will not fit in 500MB | 15:54 |
| Minall | Why do you think ubuntu is better horantru[m]?, I'm looking at references and all... Can you share your experience and, can we move to ubuntu-offtopic? | 15:55 |
| oxek | Minall: it is on-topic here | 15:55 |
| ogra | HickorySmokedBac, next time -> nmcli is the commandline tool to manage WIFI on a desktop install from commandline | 15:56 |
| oxek | ogra: or nmtui | 15:57 |
| ogra | not sure what that is ... | 15:57 |
| oxek | ogra: same thing as nmcli, but gives you a text interface | 15:57 |
| ogra | nmcli is installed by default and well documented though ... | 15:57 |
| oxek | nmtui is default too | 15:57 |
| ogra | oh ! | 15:57 |
| phillipsjk256 | thanks for the insight oxek, thought maybe I was not keeping up on kernel+initrd bloat or something. | 15:57 |
| * ogra learned something 🙂 | 15:58 | |
| oxek | ogra: it's all part of network-manager | 15:58 |
| ogra | yeah, i thought it was separate | 15:58 |
| * phillipsjk256 had to du kerel image juggling in th e past with a 100MB /boot | 15:59 | |
| oxek | phillipsjk256: you can read through /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels | 15:59 |
| oxek | phillipsjk256: and also /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal (which is an executable script if you want to play with it) | 16:00 |
| zen_coder | can I only create a LVM group on the whole disk? | 16:07 |
| c0fe | if using the cat command to write a file with multiple lines, how can I add an "enter" where one line ends and the other line begins? | 16:08 |
| Seveas | zen_coder: partitions become pv's, pv's go into vg's and lv's live inside those vg's. You can have multiple pv's (== multiple disks or partitions) in the same vg, and don't need to use whole disks as pv's | 16:09 |
| oxek | c0fe: cat << EOF > myfile | 16:09 |
| oxek | c0fe: and then write as many lines as you want, and once you're done type EOF | 16:09 |
| c0fe | no you don't understand let's say i write a long string of commands apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade && cat filehere but in that file there are two lines | 16:10 |
| Seveas | zen_coder: e.g. the server that this irssi here runs one has 2 disks, 1 of them has 3 partitions: /boot, swap and a pv. The other disk is just pv, but in a different vg. | 16:10 |
| c0fe | how do I tell the command there are multiple lines? | 16:10 |
| zen_coder | Seveas: In the ubuntu server install I can only create an LVM group for the whole device | 16:10 |
| zen_coder | I cannot mix it with normal partitions | 16:11 |
| Seveas | zen_coder: the manual partitioning thing should let you do that | 16:11 |
| c0fe | oxek: ok here is the command: https://dpaste.com/FHUM67RQM i need this all to be on one line though but the end result is a file with two lines, one line being deb https://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ focal nginx and the other line is deb-src https://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ focal nginx | 16:11 |
| zen_coder | e.g. when I create a boot partition on the PV, I cannot create a VG anymore on this device | 16:12 |
| Seveas | zen_coder: you don't create a vg on a device. You create pv's from partitions and add them to a vg | 16:12 |
| zen_coder | I have the installer right you | 16:12 |
| zen_coder | you create VG on a device | 16:12 |
| zen_coder | thats what the installer is telling me | 16:13 |
| zen_coder | I mean "right here" | 16:13 |
| zen_coder | and the VG will take the whole device | 16:13 |
| oxek | c0fe: that will work | 16:13 |
| c0fe | oxek: you aren't following | 16:14 |
| c0fe | that command has lines in it, i need to have a one line command string that creates a file with two lines | 16:14 |
| c0fe | that command has 4 lines | 16:14 |
| Seveas | zen_coder: that sounds broken to me. Haven't used the installer in about 8 years (all my installs are automated), what I said is based on how lvm works. | 16:15 |
| zen_coder | how do you automate an installer? | 16:15 |
| Seveas | https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall | 16:16 |
| Seveas | there's different ways | 16:16 |
| Minall | What are your experiences with Ubuntu vs Debian?, and why do you prefer one to other? | 16:16 |
| oxek | c0fe: echo -e "deb https://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ focal nginx\ndeb-src https://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ focal nginx > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list | 16:21 |
| oxek | wait, I missed a " | 16:22 |
| oxek | try this: echo -e "deb https://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ focal nginx\ndeb-src https://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ focal nginx" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list | 16:22 |
| ExcessiveAggro | Morning all - or afternoon depending on where you are | 16:30 |

| dakksh | No | 18:27 |

| compdoc | how about a reboot? | 18:27 |
| dakksh | Reboot always helps, but this tends to keep stopping my flow. Wanted to solve it if possible | 18:28 |
| dakksh | When I switched on right now, my systemd-networkd service was dead, even dhclient answers the same btw "RTNETLINK answers: Operation already in progress" | 18:28 |
| compdoc | possible the network hardware doesnt like suspends, or not set for suspending | 18:28 |
| dakksh | It doesn't happen the first 2/3 times I suspend. But after that this always happens | 18:29 |
| compdoc | might look into hibernation rather than sleep | 18:32 |
| dakksh | If there's nothing I can do, will reboot and live with this | 18:35 |

| CorvetteZR1 | hello. i'm playing with gstreamer in ubuntu. i have one user which was created during the installation, and the gstreamer command i'm running works fine. I created another user, with just the default group at first and then added him to audio,pulse and few others, but i get an error saying it can't find the default audio device | 20:02 |
| CorvetteZR1 | what is special about the default user added during installation that allows this to work, but not for the user that i added with useradd? | 20:02 |
| pa0fot | apologies | 20:02 |
| CorvetteZR1 | my first thought was group permissions, but adding to audio, pulse and pulse-access group should have been enough, no? | 20:03 |
| avdeur | apologies ? | 20:03 |
| oerheks | CorvetteZR1, just the audio group should do, AFAIK | 20:03 |
| CorvetteZR1 | oerheks, yea, i thought so too, but looks like it needs more | 20:04 |
| CorvetteZR1 | something alsa/pulse user specific in the profile? | 20:04 |
| CorvetteZR1 | i can't figure it out... | 20:04 |
| avdeur | switching to english.. | 20:04 |
| Maik | Well well... josspyker ... that's a name i haven't seen in years | 20:05 |
| TJ- | CorvetteZR1: what specific command is reporting can't find the default audio device? | 20:05 |
| CorvetteZR1 | TJ-, gst-launch-1.0 -q -v alsasrc ! audio/x-raw, channels=2, rate=24000 ! cutter ! voaacenc ! mp4mux streamable=true fragment_duration=10 ! fdsink fd=1 | 20:05 |
| avdeur | #join raspberry | 20:06 |
| CorvetteZR1 | TJ-, and this is the error: | 20:06 |
| CorvetteZR1 | ../ext/alsa/gstalsasrc.c(768): gst_alsasrc_open (): /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstAlsaSrc:alsasrc0: | 20:06 |
| CorvetteZR1 | Recording open error on device 'default': No such file or directory | 20:06 |
| CorvetteZR1 | but with default user, the stream works. so i my first assumption is permission/group membershit problem | 20:07 |
| CorvetteZR1 | membership*, sorry :D | 20:07 |
| TJ- | CorvetteZR1: long time since I messed with gst, but it looks like it's using ALSA directly, not Pulseaudio. Is the default system user session in progress at the same time? If so, it is likely that it has the default device open exclusivelt | 20:07 |
| CorvetteZR1 | i see. i just logged out, running from cli...same thing | 20:08 |
| CorvetteZR1 | maybe if i reboot and log in as the other user directly then | 20:08 |
| CorvetteZR1 | so he gets the lock | 20:08 |
| CorvetteZR1 | will try that now | 20:08 |
| TJ- | CorvetteZR1: try running that command with "strace -f -e trace=file -o /tmp/gst-strace.log " prefixed to it, then examine the end of the log to see if there are clues as to what it is trying to open | 20:08 |
| CorvetteZR1 | TJ-, ok, sure. thanks for the advice | 20:09 |
| CorvetteZR1 | oh, well, that's weird...after reboot it's working for both users | 20:11 |
| CorvetteZR1 | looks like being the right group does help but that didn't apply right away | 20:12 |
| oerheks | oh, a logout and login is required with group changes | 20:12 |
| CorvetteZR1 | perhaps alsa/pulse services needed to be restarted? | 20:12 |
| CorvetteZR1 | oerheks, i did logout and back in...but i was doing that via ssh | 20:13 |
| TJ- | CorvetteZR1: no, during a session you'd need to use "newgrp" | 20:13 |
| CorvetteZR1 | aaah, ok...never new about that | 20:13 |
| oerheks | pulseaudio -k && sudo alsa force-reload | 20:13 |
| CorvetteZR1 | that i def didn't do | 20:13 |
| CorvetteZR1 | ok, that explains it then | 20:13 |
| CorvetteZR1 | thank you! | 20:13 |
| oerheks | have fun! | 20:13 |
| TJ- | CorvetteZR1: easy way to check those is "groups" will report *current* groups (in session) whilst "groups $USER" will report all groups user is currently configure in, in /etc/group | 20:14 |
| CorvetteZR1 | TJ-, cool, thanks, i'll keep that in mind | 20:14 |

| matsaman | I heard Ubuntu is dropping 32-bit for version 19 onward | 21:00 |
| matsaman | yates: ^ but Debian will probably keep 32-bit for much, much longer | 21:00 |
| yates | so the answer to my question is "Yes"? (depending on the version) | 21:01 |
| tomreyn | 18.04 is the last still supported release providing support for 32-bit x86 | 21:01 |
| TJ- | os-release is designed to be sourced, so ". /etc/os-release; echo $VERSION" | 21:01 |
| matsaman | yates: I would say 'no' depending on version, but sure =) | 21:01 |
| tomreyn | later releases support a (very) limited subset up 32-bit libraries and software. | 21:02 |
| tomreyn | ah good point, TJ- | 21:02 |
| sarnold | armhf hasn't been dropped yet, though; iirc it's built in chroots on aarch64 hosts, though, so that may be why there's been less demand for not building it any longer | 21:05 |
| matsaman | if you want broader hardware support, Debian is always going to be the more straightforward choice | 21:06 |
| yates | there are a bazillion results for "apt search python3" - which one is the actual python3 install proper? | 21:07 |
| tomreyn | "python3" | 21:08 |
| yates | doh! | 21:08 |
| yates | tomreyn: python3.8-dev if i wanted specifically 3.8? | 21:10 |
| tomreyn | "python3.8" then | 21:11 |
| tomreyn | -dev contains header files | 21:12 |
| yates | tomreyn: right. thanks. | 21:13 |
| yates | i knew that but got bamboozled by the massive quantity of selections.. | 21:14 |
| yates | ubuntu - gotta love it.. | 21:14 |
| compdoc | I never get bamboozled :( | 21:16 |
| yates | :) | 21:23 |

| Apachez | when enabled proposed, every now and then apt update wants to remove linux-generic - homw come? | 22:14 |
| oerheks | that happens, next update after a kernel update. | 22:16 |
| oerheks | cleanup. and leave current and previous kernel on disk. | 22:17 |
| gbellinoz | If I'm building something from source and the ./configure script complains about there not being an openssl library on my system, what's the smart way of finding the package that provides it? I usually apt search | grep, but that seems inexact. | 22:18 |
| oerheks | !info libssl-dev | 22:19 |
| ubottu | libssl-dev (source: openssl): Secure Sockets Layer toolkit - development files. In component main, is optional. Version 1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.1 (focal), package size 1545 kB, installed size 7818 kB | 22:19 |
| oerheks | else ask the author/maintainer for a dependencie list | 22:20 |
| gbellinoz | Yep, author should have provided a dependency list. Can I found out from configure.ac what actual lib filename it's looking for, then do a dpkg -S or something? | 22:21 |
| oerheks | maybe there are guides already .. without proper info what and on wht ubuntu version, i don't know. | 22:22 |
| gbellinoz | configure.ac calls PKG_CHECK_MODULES with 'openssl' as a param. So if I can figure out where that looks, maybe I can map to the ubuntu package with a dpkg-query | 22:34 |
| gbellinoz | dpkg -S /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/LIBNAME.pc | 22:42 |
| gbellinoz | (for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) | 22:43 |
| gbellinoz | der, that only works if the package is already installed... | 22:49 |
| gbellinoz | apt-file search /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/LIBNAME.pc | 22:49 |
| gbellinoz | so far, works for openssl, blkid... | 22:51 |
| pyzozord | hello, i am trying to set up ~/.config/pulse/default.pa sink but it doesnt work. After computer restart it is comletely ignored I need to manually "pulseaudio -k" to make it work | 22:57 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | i have a "read-only" fstab problem... | 23:12 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | is the solution really just | 23:13 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | sudo mount -o remount,rw / | 23:13 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | Y | 23:13 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | from "single user mode"? | 23:13 |
| matsaman | s3nd1v0g1us: sometimes | 23:14 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | ok | 23:14 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | how do i determine if this is one of thoe times? | 23:15 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | s* | 23:15 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | also, is it -o or -O? | 23:15 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | This is my fstab file: UUID=e367ae07-0b5a-432e-9d0f-5ffaf6e5b21a / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 | 23:16 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | any advice? | 23:19 |
| Ben64 | if it's being remounted in read only, that's an indication that something bad is happening | 23:19 |
| Ben64 | hopefully you've got backups | 23:19 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | of my hardrive? | 23:19 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | ihavent lost anything on reboot ever. | 23:20 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | but i should yes | 23:20 |
| oerheks | run a fsck on those partitions? | 23:20 |
| Ben64 | check smart data maybe too | 23:20 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | from grub, advanced, reocvery? | 23:20 |
| oerheks | live iso https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilesystemTroubleshooting | 23:20 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | orjust from root? | 23:20 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | ok | 23:20 |
| sarnold | is there any message in dmesg to say why it is read-only? | 23:21 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | dmesg? | 23:21 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | where should i run diagnotstics? from grub recovery, or just root? | 23:24 |
| sarnold | the dmesg command shows you the kernel message buffer | 23:25 |
| sarnold | I assumed you had a running system that was currently read-only root, and curious to fix it or diagnose it | 23:26 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | yes | 23:26 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | is there a particular string? dmesg...-F? | 23:26 |
| sarnold | try dmesg | grep -C 10 read | 23:27 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | from root or grub recovery? | 23:28 |
| sarnold | from root | 23:28 |
| sarnold | at least, I think I understood your question.. | 23:28 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | okay | 23:28 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | lots of output. what in particular am I looking for? i see some references to read-only | 23:30 |

| s3nd1v0g1us | it had windows7, i installed ubuntu | 23:36 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | ok | 23:36 |
| tomreyn | you can run dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999 to post your kernel log online | 23:37 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | i will do it now. | 23:37 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | https://termbin.com/bjg2 | 23:39 |
| tomreyn | thats actually radeon graphics | 23:40 |
| sarnold | hmm, I'm not seeing what I expected to see, but this looks out of place: | 23:41 |
| sarnold | [ 90.099222] aufs aufs_fill_super:918:mount[1516]: no arg | 23:41 |
| sarnold | [ 90.171268] overlayfs: missing 'lowerdir' | 23:41 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | hmm | 23:41 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | i noticed that message as part of the error during boot in regard to the swapfile | 23:42 |
| sarnold | I don't know if that's related to the thing you're working on at the moment, but it feels possible.. | 23:42 |
| Lantizia | FLASH! Ahaa... what are the odds if I ask a question about that - there will be a torrent of hate and people pointing out stuff every knows (like, how it's completely dead and buried now) | 23:44 |
| sarnold | I suspect you're more likely to get the "oh was that not already dead?" kinds of responses :) | 23:45 |
| oerheks | be happy with the final update. | 23:45 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | death to Flash? | 23:45 |
| Lantizia | yeah - I'm hesitant to say anything... don't want to get IRC bogged down with people diverting from the actual reason for saying anything :P | 23:45 |
| Lantizia | oerheks, 465? lol it's got a time bomb in it - I already know I need 371 (and have it) | 23:46 |
| oerheks | the flash plugin downloader is still available, so ... | 23:46 |
| Lantizia | lol it deletes the plugin... but I've got a backup of the old version of flashplugin-installer too : | 23:46 |
| Lantizia | :P | 23:46 |
| Lantizia | (waits for everyone to get the obvious off their chests) | 23:47 |
| tomreyn | sarnold: thos emessages you wuoted dont seem to be so unusual https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/docker-snap-failed-to-mount-overlay-and-where-to-report-bugs/20010/5 | 23:48 |
| sarnold | tomreyn: blurgh. four months ago. I hope he found out where to report bugs :) | 23:51 |
| tomreyn | :-/ | 23:52 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | so is my swap fucked, or is it repairable from recovery mode via remount as r/w? | 23:55 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | it seems to reboot fine, minus the error about the swap.. | 23:56 |
| s3nd1v0g1us | but obvioulsy something is amiss | 23:57 |
| tomreyn | "the error about the swap"? | 23:57 |
| tomreyn | i don't thin you told us about this, yet. | 23:57 |
| tomreyn | oh yes you did, sorry | 23:58 |
| tomreyn | but whats the message? | 23:58 |
