[00:12] ok this is like the 5th machine I have seen this happy on uBLUNTu desktop and server [00:12] it thinks it's a efi/gpt system and it's not [00:13] it seems to work alright but wtf gives [00:13] yes I know wtf a efi/gpt system is but this hw existed before the standard [00:15] flyback: is UEFI support enabled in BIOS? [00:16] it's coreboot [00:16] I guess the atom could technically support uefi but the other boxes absolutely DO NOT support uefi [00:17] it's not that big of a deal since it seems to work anyways just weird [00:18] flyback: it is just how the ISO is booted, if it boots in UEFI mode, that is how it tries to install, the boot menu of the ISO will be a text grub menu where I think BIOS mode gets a graphical boot with some message about booting automatically in 10 seconds [00:19] ok [00:32] Hello im back _conjo [00:33] For anyone that was wondering the ublox gps device only gets powered recognized by the laptop when its battery is full and plugged [00:35] Sorry, but I meant to go to the Ubuntu For All channel.

[01:52] ublox :D [01:52] Yes sarnold, cna you help me? [01:52] mrtrousers: current location of usb error codes documentation https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/driver-api/usb/error-codes.html [01:52] mrtrousers: probably not :( my ublox receivers just worked no trouble :/ [01:53] In ubuntu? [01:53] yeah [01:53] With just usb? What model do you have? [01:54] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/ySvrYsGyQH/ [01:54] mrtrousers: do you see ftdi_sio module in lsmod ? [01:54] yeah, usb, I'm not doing any ntpd [01:55] pavlos yes [01:56] pavlos: ftdi_sio 61440 0 [01:56] usbserial 53248 1 ftdi_sio [01:57] mrtrousers: this link shows usbcore line with ftdi_sio as well, see http://ftdi-usb-sio.sourceforge.net/ [01:58] mrtrousers: power is odd.. if there isn't enough, sometimes things just don't work quite right. it's possible that you might be stuck needing to supply external power to these things. [02:00] sarnold ntps? For it to work in linux i need to use usb for thata and a usb to dc jack converter for power, is that your setup? Or only usb for both? [02:00] pavlos do you think i need that driver? [02:01] how put the interfaces in classic mode , eth0 wifi [02:02] ubuntu 20.04 [02:02] mrtrousers: all four of mine are connected over a single USB wire that does both power and signal; two of them are connected to an rpi3b+ with wall power (and apparently The Right Power Source for the rpi3b+, those are apparently very cranky about power) -- and the other two are connected to my laptop's docking station, which also has a dedicated power supply [02:03] sarnold , so it might be that my laptop is not supplying enough current mA through my usb ports? [02:04] mrtrousers: yeah; there's little usb power meters that you can stick in line to see how much is supplied, but I honestly haven't got a clue if those things let enough signal through for the device to actually work :( [02:05] rander2: edit /etc/default/grub, make this line, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0" sudo update-grub, reboot. Interface should be eth0 [02:05] rander2: I think this will do it https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/ [02:05] I done this, but the interfaces remain the same [02:06] pavlos what does that lsmod output mean? https://pastebin.com/raw/wMgqzjVP [02:07] mrtrousers: usbserial module depends on ftdi_sio but I dont see reference to usbcore which is the subsystem for all usb [02:08] pavlos ill look for it [02:08] mrtrousers: time for me to bail; good luck, I hope you can get these working :) [02:08] sarnold thanks, knowing that yours work with youst the usb wire helps my debugging.. [02:11] pavlos couldnt find any usbcore reference.. [02:13] mrtrousers: the link I sent describes how to load the module with vendor and product info, "modprobe ftdi_sio vendor=0x403 product=0x6001" Find your product and vendor info and try to load the module [02:14] ok [02:15] rander2: just did it on 20.04, edited grub, next to quiet splash added net.ifnames=0 , sudo update-grub, reboot, now my interface is eth0 (was ens18) [02:17] a web search for "idVendor=0424, idProduct=2514" (quote from mrtrousers's dmesg) shows nothing but usb connectivity issues. [02:17] rander2: removed net.ifnames=0, sudo update-grub, reboot, my interface is ens18 now [02:18] Pavlos that linke has good info ill review it carefully after resting tonight. [02:18] Im worn out today, thanks for the help. [02:18] mrtrousers: good luck === de-facto_ is now known as de-facto [02:38] okay, I'm a bit further analyzing my ctrl+f issue. In xev I do not see a KeyPress event for the key if pressed while ctrl is held [02:39] so keycode 52 is never received, no matter what it is mapped to, i.e. which layout / keyboard I use === zbenjamin is now known as Guest5385 === zbenjamin_ is now known as zbenjamin [03:22] Hey guys, hopefully a quick question. I have a folder, say "Parent" with many subfolders. I would like to create 11 directories in EACH subfolder, named 2010 through 2021, is there a simple way to accomplish this? [03:34] DreamPCS: you could script it on the shell [03:35] I'm trying to figure that out now [03:36] two nested for loops should do the trick [03:36] That's a bit above my paygrade, I just created a quick little sandbox to play around in [03:41] for dir in Parent/*/; do for sub in $(seq 2010 2021); do mkdir $dir$sub; done; done === conjo_ is now known as turd === turd is now known as poopfart [03:43] I hate to say it but I don't quite get it. I was able to figure out how to create all the subdirectories in one command, however I can only do that for one parent at a time which isn't going to work for me. === poopfart is now known as bloody === bloody is now known as bloodyhell === bloodyhell is now known as conyo_ [03:44] I tried this command "mkdir -p test/{2010,2011,2012,2013,2014,2015,2016,2017,2018,2019,2020,2021}" but I don't think there's a way to change "test" to "*" (wildcard) to match all the already made directories === conyo_ is now known as Conjo_ [03:44] use the onliner I posted, it'll do the trick [03:44] Ok, looking at it now. [03:44] * will probably work in that case [03:45] So to be clear, that entire line was the one command? "for dir in Parent/*/; do for sub in $(seq 2010 2021); do mkdir $dir$sub; done; done" [03:46] re missing KeyPress event: it's related to the de_bone layout being at the first position in the settings [03:46] DreamPCS: yes, the whole line [03:46] mozzarella: Doesn't work for me, it creates a directory named "*" and then creates the subdirectories within it, [03:46] d12fk: Ok thanks [03:47] DreamPCS: cd $parent ; for dir in *; do mkdir $dir/{2010..2021} ; done [03:48] d12fk: You are the man! Thank you! [03:48] leftyfb: You just missed it lol! Thanks though and thanks mozzarella for your input [03:48] mozzarella: ^ [03:49] DreamPCS: happy to help [03:50] {2010..2021} is even more elegant, didn't know that syntax [03:56] I think I may have spoken too soon lol, when I ran that command on the actual data, it spat out a bunch of no such file errors and wrecked havoc on my files lol [03:57] All is well, I have a backup! Anyway, I think it may have to do with the fact that some of these directories have a space in them. [03:58] Is there perhaps a flag or something that allows for spaces in the parent directories? Or am I misreading the issue? [04:04] you need to quote names with spaces [04:05] In that one line command you gave me, the "*" represents the folders which have spaces in their name [04:06] Does this mean I need to look for another solution? I'm thinking of just replacing the spaces with underscores [04:12] Ok guys, I worked it out, I just converted the spaces to underscores and reran the command. It's all good! [04:14] ls -d Parent/*/ | while read d; do mkdir "${d}"{2010..2021}; done [04:15] ^ this works with spaces [04:15] underscores work as well =) [04:15] Another quick question, I forgot to include one directory, which will be called "Unsorted" [04:16] ls -d Parent/*/ | while read d; do mkdir "${d}"Unsorted; done [04:16] Is that the correct command? [04:17] yes [04:17] Ok awesome, just wanted to make sure before I executed it === denningsrogue5 is now known as denningsrogue [04:55] Hello [04:56] I am on 20.04 and using the chromium browser package in ubuntu.

Thanks! [06:51] lotuspsychje: it's not off-topic ffs. [06:51] it's 100% relevant to a sysadmin. Get a job dude. [06:52] for a hobbyist, LTS, support, versions and maintenance may be a hand wavy thing. It's a matter of survival when you're using linux professionally. [06:53] daysun: we divide support questions and discussions into the right channels, your question is a discussion [06:53] That has never been the case before. [06:53] Nope, no such update on the channel rules document. [06:54] And it's not a discussion ffs. [06:56] The lifetime of a version, for example, is a cold hard set date. That's not up to discussion on an IRC channel. Same goes with support for nginx; how and why it's supported is not up to an opinionated discussion, it's about cold hard facts of what is and isn't. [06:56] Usually there's a clear reason or decision behind a certain type of support. [06:57] lotuspsychje: you do not know what you're talking about.

[07:00] daysun: If you mean focal getting an update from 1.17 to 1.18 I suspect that was because the odd numbered versions aren't stable but 1.18 didn't come out in time [07:01] tomreyn: he's obviously trolling on purpose [07:02] Amaranth: that explain some of it. I'm just used to ubuntu being several versions behind on most packages. nginx sticks out a bit since it's not that far behind (or at all really) [07:03] It's still on older versions in bionic and xenial, it's just that one that got a version bump [07:03] Don't want to try to maintain a beta version for 5 years, I guess :P [07:09] http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/n/nginx/nginx_1.18.0-0ubuntu1/changelog [07:23] okay, so the update is more of a practical "anomaly" rather than a usual thing :p [08:06] hi [08:06] htop shows high load [08:06] but nothing is really going on (just firefox and few tabs) [08:08] how to detect what is causing such big load? [08:18] when I go to nslookup and hit Ctrl+C to exit , I can't get new line when I hit Enter, anymore [08:20] Is selection flickering in Ubuntu a GTK+ problem or an issue of the specific app [08:21] https://pastebin.com/2a4YXYBj [08:22] like aether Bash is broken or terminal or Ctrl+C gets wrong exit that breaks CLI afterward [08:35] also there is no terminal echo aftewards [08:35] if you want to reboot like once a week automatically, how do you stop it from not ruining an unattended upgrade? [08:36] Maybe some cron statement or a systemd timer to kill the demon? And restart it afterwards? [08:37] whoops misspelled daemon here [08:38] daysun: you could write a script that checks no upgrade is happening in the background [08:38] oh yeah, something like pgrept apt | reboot [08:39] probably you wanna look for dpkg and or some other unattended-upgrades program, let it run once and watch ps output [08:40] #!/bin/sh [08:40] pgrep dpkg | reboot [08:41] Paste it into /bin as safe-reboot, then chmod +x it, and add a systemd timer or a cron job. Voila! [08:42] that's a nice idea agvantibo :) [08:42] thanks [08:42] There's a risk for a race condition though xD but it's smaller [08:43] the upgrade could start just as the reboot is happening [08:43] yolo [08:44] It's safe to kill apt when it's not dpkg-ing and just downloading. So the chances are super low. But it IS possible. [08:44] Btw why do you even need to reboot it once a week anyway? [08:47] Because I don't know what I'm doing. [08:48] to make sure all the updates are used and not remain "not restarted" [08:48] Some services will restart on updates. But there are much software in a system that gets updated regularly. [08:48] Aaah. Yeah. I see. Why not Livepatch? [08:50] https://ubuntu.com/security/livepatch [08:51] And you probably will have less downtime - and less need to reboot. Pairing with a systemctl daemon-reload will be even better... [08:52] The only problem is, it's a snap package... === Black is now known as Benett [09:06] hi, running xubuntu 20.10, everytime i boot i get a message that an error occured and if i want to report it. i click on report it but not sure if anything happens. can someone tell me wth is going on?

[09:22] agvantibo: I don't trust myself enough to not reboot. I don't know what I'd be missing. For example, let's say that there's an active ssh session somewhere, or pulseaudio running or just anything, perhaps using an unpatched lib (must kill the program to reload it).

[12:00] lotuspsychje, can i check with apt if some package ( this package we are talking about ) is a dependency for something i have installed and if so which is it ? [12:01] lotuspsychje, yea could be - the thing is it usually worked [12:01] yea the file is probably broken [12:02] avidemux also gives me an error when opening it but manages to somehow get to it [12:02] lotuspsychje, anyways my more concerning issue is that of the missing thumbnails i just added that cuz maybe it was related in someway [12:03] thyriaen: can you try to create a new test user, see if nautilus suffers the same?

[12:57] apparently I'm stuck on wifi power saving [12:58] so it turns off the wifi whenever it feels like saving power [12:58] I think there was a command line for this [12:58] so i'm not always there when it disconnects, but the wifi is not even usually enabled when I boot up [12:58] but it depends of the cards [12:58] there is a power save option in a config file but it doesnt help [12:59] [ 4.039758] iwlwifi 0000:10:00.0 wlp16s0: renamed from wlan0 [13:00] frib, https://linux.jholland.org/?p=16 [13:00] https://superuser.com/questions/663335/really-disable-power-save-in-linux-wifi [13:00] you can try this [13:01] perhaps script something [13:02] thats the power of the signal not the enabling/disabling of the interface altogether [13:02] my wifi gets turned completely off [13:04] frib: power management turns itself on? [13:04] jeremy31, since I installed ubuntu on this laptop power saving has been on by default and I can't turn it off [13:05] frib: even> sudo iwconfig wlp16s0 power off [13:05] in gnome-control-center power tab I see "Wifi can be turned off to save power YES" [13:05] someone suggested that already [13:05] frib: that message is misleading [13:05] which one [13:06] the one in gnome-control-center [13:06] in the power tab there is an option to turn wifi off in order to save power [13:06] the option is turned ON [13:06] so my wifi gets turned off to save power [13:06] if I try to turn this option OFF, my wifi goes OFF [13:07] frib: That is just an on/off switch for wifi [13:07] it doesn't say it's an on/off switch for wifi [13:07] it says it's a power-saving option [13:08] frib have you ever done> sudo sed -i 's/wifi.powersave = 3/wifi.powersave = 2/' /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf [13:08] yes several times [13:08] does iwconfig show power management on? [13:08] no [13:08] then it is off [13:09] ok [13:09] but my wifi still gets turned off automatically [13:09] do you have tlp installed? [13:09] no [13:11] How is it getting turned off? Is it soft blocked in rfkill? [13:11] no [13:11] I don't know how [13:12] wlp16s0: renamed from wlan0 .. weird. [13:12] been that way since 2017 [13:13] oh, that looks like the old naming is restored [13:14] I dont know what else to do [13:15] frib: I think the switch in the control center just toggles true/false in /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state [13:15] Hi folks [13:15] jeremy31, I dont even have that file [13:17] frib try> sudo cat /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state [13:17] I see it now [13:17] network wireless and wwan enabled = true [13:19] frib: run the 2 commands at https://gist.github.com/jeremyb31/a2bee9856d8c13f42f1835bc31bf9480 in terminal and post URL after the second command is run [13:22] I dont feel comfortable posting all of that info [13:22] frib, is your country code set? [13:23] Have you disabled IPv6 in Network Manager? [13:23] country code should be set. I did not disable ipv6 [13:24] You can check country code> iw reg get [13:24] country US [13:28] frib run this in terminal and it might tell you why it shuts down> tail -f /var/log/syslog [13:29] ok but I'll have to wait for it to shut off then [13:29] or I Could try closing my laptop lid because I think that does it, not sure though [13:31] hey guys [13:31] is there any gui installer for ubuntu server ? [13:49] frib: open the wireless-info.txt file in your home directory and scroll to the iwlist scan results, see how many other AP's are on the same channel [13:50] jeremy31, even if this happens on many different wifi networks? [13:51] frib: If it is disconnecting from networks it could be TKIP encryption [13:53] looks like 3 others on the same channel as me [13:53] but this problem is not specific to home, it happens at work or wherever else too [13:54] frib: can you post a question on ubuntuforums.org in Networking, that way chili555 will see it and may have some ideas [13:55] sure [13:55] i can do it later [13:55] thanks for your help jeremy31 [14:05] Hello sarnold pavlos [14:05] I managed to fix the not recognized device attached through usb.. [14:05] That commmand before replugging fixed it: sudo modprobe -r ftdi_sio [14:05] I guess so many plugguing and unplugguin was messing it up..

I then booted from a thumb drive and scanned /dev/sda for "import numpy" which should occur in 100s of my files, but I only got 4 hits in what looks like Ubuntu documentation. Any guesses why? [15:37]
