| pi0 | which virtualization tooks do you use within ubuntu? | 01:37 |
|---|---|---|
| sarnold | I mostly use libvirt, one of my teammates has written some scripting around it that works for us.. I'd probably use lxd for 'new' uses though | 01:38 |
| pi0 | oh those are containers | 01:40 |
| sarnold | lxd learned how to do VMs ~nine months ago https://discuss.linuxcontainers.org/t/running-virtual-machines-with-lxd-4-0/7519 | 01:41 |
| pi0 | sarnold: thank you | 01:45 |
| pi0 | oh i forgot to tell you | 01:45 |
| pi0 | yesterday i had a terrible crash | 01:45 |

| pi0 | thank good ness i was able to mount my drive from usb | 01:46 |
| pi0 | and cp it to usb drive | 01:46 |
| alez | does someone know if theres a script for irrsi so putty blinks when someone messages you? | 01:47 |
| sarnold | alez: try /set bell_beeps ON | 01:48 |
| alez | sarnold: 02:48:57 -!- Irssi: Unknown setting bell_beeps | 01:49 |
| sarnold | alez: argh :( "Removed in Irssi 1.0.0." https://irssi.org/documentation/settings/ | 01:50 |
| sarnold | ah it doesn't even do what I thought it did | 01:50 |
| sarnold | alez: okay, try two, try /set beep_msg_level hilight | 01:51 |
| alez | that did work | 01:52 |
| pi0 | sarnold: i am looking at gui logs from gnome menu, anything in there i should keep an eye out so my system does not crash again | 01:52 |
| pi0 | i have no clue what may of caused it, in panic i just copied my hw over | 01:52 |
| sarnold | alez: woot | 01:52 |
| sarnold | alez: did it flash? :) | 01:52 |

| SirOsisOfThelive | is there a separate channel for ubuntu server or is this one ok | 01:53 |

| SirOsisOfThelive | thanks | 01:54 |
| alez | sarnold: ahh ;) | 01:54 |

| frad | working with windows pdfs: I have several pdf files from somebody who worked with a windows computer. Each time I use okular to open these files, the file's name is not shown. I mean on top of the application. All I see is 'microsoft windows' | 08:27 |
| frad | I tried using okular to create a new pdf file but the resulting text looks strange and the search function doesn't work,because some parts of the text are shown above others... | 08:28 |
| frad | wait | 08:28 |
| frad | I tried using libreoffice draw to create a new pdf file but the resulting text looks strange and the search function doesn't work,because some parts of the text are shown above others... | 08:28 |
| frad | fixed | 08:28 |

| geirha | though oddly it outputs the package list on stderr instead of stdout | 08:29 |
| frad | I need either a way to either show the name of the file instead of 'microsoft windows' or a way for libreoffice draw to recognize th whole text without showing parts of it on top of others | 08:30 |

| Lope | I dumped my gnome-terminal profile like this: `dconf dump /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/ > pro` Then I edited the visible-name and the UUID slightly, then loaded it like this `cat pro | dconf load /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/` if I dump again, it's there, but doesn't show up in gnome-terminal preferences even after closing and re-opening gnome-terminal. | 09:27 |
| Lope | okay, this looks helpful: https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Terminal/FAQ | 09:29 |
| Lope | Interestingly the profile that I created with dconf doesn't show up when I do `gsettings get org.gnome.Terminal.ProfilesList list` but it does when I do this: `dconf dump /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/` lolz | 09:30 |

| lotuspsychje | choice: we dont really support chrome, try the ubuntu alternate chromium | 10:17 |
| choice | lotuspsychje: I use Chromium | 10:17 |
| choice | I just say "Chrome" because most of the time I say "Chromium" I get asked "What is Chromium" :) | 10:17 |

| lotuspsychje | choice: as theme you can choose in settings, gtk or classic theme | 10:19 |
| choice | lotuspsychje: The theme does not change the mode. Just the colors of the ui. | 10:19 |
| lotuspsychje | choice: try this; https://darkreader.org/ | 10:19 |
| lotuspsychje | i use it for FF works great | 10:20 |

| SteelRose | Hi all! Is there any reason as to why non-privileged users can run "su -" ? /var/log/auth.log says that /etc/securetty is missing by default on 20.04 LTS, so I created a soft-link from /snap/core18/current/etc/securetty to /etc/securetty ... still users cannot become root via "su -" ... | 10:49 |
| SteelRose | thanks | 10:49 |
| choice | SteelRose: I didn't even know you can do "su -" to become root. | 10:50 |
| choice | I always use "sudo su". | 10:50 |
| SteelRose | I also found this link https://askubuntu.com/questions/1239503/ubuntu-20-04-and-20-10-etc-securetty-no-such-file-or-directory and others with similar proposals | 10:50 |
| SteelRose | choice: yes, you can... :-) it has been so on all UNIX and Linux systems... I'm still getting accustomed to Ubuntu though | 10:51 |
| choice | SteelRose: Nice. | 10:51 |
| SteelRose | for "sudo su" to work, users must be added to the sudoers file... which is not always the case, hence being able to "su -" is important | 10:52 |
| === jesspacito is now known as jess | ||
| yossarianuk | you can always do a '# sudo -i' then passwd root so you can then su - to root | 10:54 |
| yossarianuk | or just '# sudo passwd root' | 10:54 |
| SteelRose | yossarianuk: I already tried that :-) it does not work | 10:56 |
| SteelRose | yossarianuk: all systems are provisioned via Terraform and the root password is included in the process | 10:57 |
| SteelRose | it works 100% with CentOS VMs but Ubuntu is causing trouble | 10:58 |
| jpds | SteelRose: The supported way of getting root on Ubuntu since forever is via sudo | 10:59 |

| bipin | I had Lubuntu 20.04 on my system with 1TB , then I decided to add SSD into my system , the SSD guy installed Ubuntu 20.10 on my system , I was able to boot into SSD for a few days , after few days I saw this message -/dev/sda2: clean , 346240/14622720 files , 3917823/50461104 blocks , and it freezes there ? | 11:31 |

| MegaManSec | is there a way to check what ./configure flags were used for an ubuntu package? | 11:56 |
| bipin | is this for me ? | 11:56 |
| javi404 | bipin: what do you mean "the SSD guy installed Ubuntu" ? | 11:57 |
| bipin | He installed Ubuntu on SSd | 11:58 |
| bipin | 20.10 | 11:58 |
| javi404 | bipin: so you are using ubuntu 20.10 but you want to use Lubuntu 20.04 | 11:59 |
| javi404 | I assume they didn't copy / migrate the Lubuntu, or failed to? | 12:00 |
| bipin | I have both Lubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 20.10 | 12:00 |
| javi404 | what problem are you having? | 12:01 |
| bipin | Lubuntu 20.04 is on HDD and Ubuntu 20.10 is on SSD | 12:01 |
| javi404 | I don't understand | 12:01 |
| javi404 | ok, and what do you desire? | 12:01 |
| bipin | When I choose Ubuntu 20.10 , it shows this error : -/dev/sda2: clean , 346240/14622720 files , 3917823/50461104 blocks , and it freezes there ? | 12:01 |
| bipin | and I cannot continue to use it | 12:01 |
| eqw | it is not error | 12:01 |
| eqw | so the problem is that is freezes | 12:02 |
| bipin | yes | 12:02 |
| eqw | and this message does not clarify the reason | 12:02 |
| bipin | that's the only message I see | 12:02 |
| bipin | and it freezes there , | 12:02 |
| javi404 | if you paid someone to do this upgrade, I would call them | 12:03 |
| javi404 | and complain | 12:03 |
| ThinkT510 | bipin: do you want to keep both installs or just use one? | 12:03 |
| bipin | It was a friend of mine , who did this for me , he doesnt know how to solve this either | 12:03 |
| javi404 | also, not sure why you would want both lubuntu and ubuntu on the same workstation. | 12:03 |
| bipin | either way I am fine | 12:03 |
| javi404 | bipin: sounds like a recipe for disaster | 12:04 |
| javi404 | bipin: i would backup all your files if you can boot into lubuntu and start fresh | 12:04 |
| bipin | if I don't get any errors Ubuntu 20.10 works ,then I just want that | 12:04 |
| javi404 | like i said | 12:05 |
| javi404 | backup everything, reinstall and format all the drives | 12:05 |
| bipin | Is there an alternative ? | 12:05 |
| javi404 | make sure the SSD is plugged into the first port on the motherboard (im assuming this is a workstation) and hard drive is 2nd port. | 12:06 |
| javi404 | dvd port 3, etc | 12:06 |
| javi404 | bipin: im sure there is, but without looking at it, impossible to solve from here. | 12:06 |
| bipin | I don't know much details but I am on a laptop | 12:06 |
| ThinkT510 | bipin: have you ever installed ubuntu yourself? | 12:08 |
| bipin | No | 12:09 |
| ThinkT510 | bipin: non-LTS releases are only supported for 9 months, so unless you want to upgrade every 9 months you would be better off sticking to an LTS release | 12:09 |
| bipin | I had the similar error before I had an SSD , I don't remeber exactly how I solved it | 12:10 |
| ThinkT510 | bipin: do you want the OS on the SSD and just have the hdd mounted as storage space? | 12:11 |
| bipin | YES | 12:11 |
| ThinkT510 | bipin: then you'll need to backup what you want to keep and perform a fresh install on the SSD (as javi404 said) | 12:11 |
| === akem is now known as akem1 | ||

| bipin | a general idea ? | 12:12 |
| ThinkT510 | bipin: do you have an external hard drive to copy what you want to back up to? | 12:13 |
| bipin | I do have a PenDrive | 12:13 |
| ThinkT510 | bipin: then you need to know how much space your backup will take and whether the usb stick can hold that much | 12:13 |
| bipin | okay | 12:14 |
| ThinkT510 | bipin: first step is deciding what you want to backup | 12:14 |
| bipin | okay I will store all essential files into a penDrive that I need | 12:14 |
| javi404 | bipin: and make sure you have a copy on another penDrive | 12:15 |
| bipin | okay | 12:15 |
| javi404 | now what the hell can I do to solve my gpu performance issues? | 12:15 |
| eqw | meanwhile bipin probably haven't took a look at their /var/log/syslog | 12:15 |
| javi404 | eqw: want to walk him through that? | 12:15 |
| javi404 | him / her | 12:15 |
| eqw | javi404: i think that is as complicated as making a backup | 12:16 |
| ThinkT510 | eqw: sounds like bipin wants an LTS release on the SSD so no real point in troubleshooting that if they are just reinstalling over 12.10 that is already on there | 12:16 |
| javi404 | eqw: what is? | 12:16 |
| eqw | yes, 12.10 wasn't a good idea | 12:17 |
| eqw | s/12.10/20.10/ | 12:17 |
| bipin | maybe thats the problem | 12:17 |
| ThinkT510 | sorry, yes, 20.10 | 12:17 |
| bipin | I think I will fresh install 20.04 on the SSD | 12:18 |

| javi404 | can i revert to 20.04.1? | 12:19 |
| rory | the difference is in the installation media only. A system that was installed using 20.04 or 20.04.1 is the same as a system which was installed using 20.04.2, it's just that package updates have been bundled into the updated media to save download time after installation | 12:20 |

| nunya_ | I checked running processes to kill as many as possible before playing games. I came across one called agent. What is it and do I need it? | 13:58 |
| nunya_ | agent is such a generic name that I found millions of results on Google but not related to Ubuntu | 13:59 |
| BluesKaj | nunya_, try 'Agent game' in google | 14:09 |
| nunya_ | <BluesKaj>I don't think you understood my question. I am killing unnecessary processes before opening a game because I don't have much RAM. I came across a process named agent. I want to know what it is. | 14:17 |
| oerheks | sure that 'agent' gives a PID ? | 14:19 |
| BluesKaj | nunya_, it could be anything, like a daemon or other processrs running in the background | 14:20 |
| oerheks | ssh-agent, gpg-agent.. | 14:20 |
| BluesKaj | processes | 14:20 |
| === semeion is now known as mnemonic | ||
| nunya_ | <oerheks>I killed it already. Doesn't seem to have hurt anything. If it was ssh-agent, gpg-agent it should say so "agent" is so generic. | 14:22 |
| nunya_ | <BluesKaj>That's why I am asking this question. Pointless now since I took a chance and killed it any way. | 14:23 |
| BluesKaj | one shouldn't kill processes unless you know what they do and are unecessary in your case. | 14:27 |
| nunya_ | <BluesKaj>Too late! | 14:31 |
| nunya_ | <BluesKaj>As long as I dont type: Format C:/ it should be repairable | 14:32 |
| nunya_ | <oerheks>Do processes always have same PID? I'll pay attention to it next time if that is the case. I'll Google PID as well. | 14:35 |
| nunya_ | I just tried to check out help in Xchat program I got a warning from Malwarebytes: "Website blocked: xchat.org | 14:39 |
| nunya_ | Malwarebytes Browser Guard blocked this website because it may contain malware activity." Does Xchat have a channel so I can report this? | 14:39 |
| SirOsisOfThelive | ufw is not intended to provide complete firewall functionality via its command interface, but instead provides an easy way to add or remove simple rules. It is currently mainly used for host-based firewalls.” | 14:40 |
| SirOsisOfThelive | is there a guide for how to do a good firewall (what to lock down and how and what has to be left open?) | 14:41 |
| lotuspsychje | !firewall | 14:41 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 14:41 |
| lotuspsychje | SirOsisOfThelive: see also #netfilter | 14:41 |
| SirOsisOfThelive | ok, but all that assumes i know what to lock down. I need a guide to help me reguardless of which one i use | 14:42 |
| oerheks | nunya_, xchat is EOL, depreciated, us a fork like hexchat | 14:46 |
| leftyfb | nuala: also, malwarebytes on ubuntu? | 14:49 |
| leftyfb | nuala: or more likely, why are you complaining about an EOL application you're running on Windows in an Ubuntu support channel? | 14:50 |
| SirOsisOfThelive | Is xrdp safe to use for a server, or is there another / better option? | 14:52 |
| oerheks | SirOsisOfThelive, remote desktop on a server? | 14:57 |
| hendaus | hello friends | 15:13 |
| leftyfb | SirOsisOfThelive: use ssh | 15:13 |
| hendaus | is there a way to install fm whatsapp on ubuntu? | 15:15 |
| pavlos | hendaus: https://snapcraft.io/install/whatsapp-for-linux/ubuntu | 15:18 |
| oerheks | *if* fm whatsapp gives a linux build... nope | 15:30 |
| nunya_ | <oerheks>Xchat is still quite available and works perfectly! I am familiar with how it works and don't want to have to track down all of xchat's files and configure yet another program (which for some reason is always a P.I.T.A. | 15:36 |
| oerheks | nunya_, interesting. we suggest not to. | 15:37 |
| nunya_ | <oerheks>Why? I have version XChat 2.8.8 | 15:40 |
| tonyt | why use a irc client that is no longer maintained. hexchat is just as good as xchat and it is still maintained | 15:41 |
| oerheks | i told you, it is EOL, dead, vulnerable | 15:41 |
| oerheks | !xchat | 15:41 |
| ubottu | xchat and xchat-gnome are old IRC clients which are not actively maintained outside of Ubuntu/Debian. Some versions of Ubuntu do not include them. Please strongly consider using hexchat instead, which has good upstream support and is widely recommended by the IRC community over xchat and xchat-gnome. | 15:41 |
| nunya_ | <ubottu>Might want to pull the repository for it from Ubuntu altogether then. I came with my 20.04 installation. | 15:44 |
| metbsd | how do i setup server without gui | 15:44 |
| oerheks | no, we cannot, it is in 'universe'. | 15:44 |
| oerheks | nunya_, and it does not come standard. | 15:44 |
| oerheks | good luck, with all your arguments :-D | 15:45 |
| oerheks | metbsd, ubuntu server comes without a gui, just tty | 15:45 |
| nunya_ | <oerheks>whatever just telling ypou my experience! Not trying to be a d*#k about it! | 15:46 |
| metbsd | ubuntu-20.04.2-live-server-amd64 | 15:46 |
| metbsd | i mean this | 15:46 |
| oerheks | the live server is for maintenance purpose, ( mini and server had no live sesion) | 15:48 |
| metbsd | where do i get mini ? | 15:48 |
| oerheks | !mini | 15:48 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 15:48 |
| metbsd | also give me server iso please, not live | 15:50 |
| metbsd | !server | 15:51 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Focal (Focal Fossa 20.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs - Support in | 15:51 |
| oerheks | i am sure you can find it | 15:51 |
| metbsd | all i find is live | 15:52 |
| metbsd | the live iso shows no display on old laptop | 15:52 |
| lordcirth__ | metbsd, the mini iso is linked in the !mini paste. http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/bionic/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso | 15:53 |
| metbsd | i hate live iso | 15:53 |
| ThinkT510 | the !server factoid looks like its cut off | 15:53 |
| lordcirth__ | Yeah, it does | 15:53 |
| nunya_ | Ok have hexchat installed hopefully not as difficult to register my nick and join channel automatically. Was reluctant to leat xchat because I finally got it working after much cursing ang Googling how to do so. | 15:54 |
| nunya_ | leave | 15:54 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: hexchat is just a client, no need to re-register your nick | 15:54 |
| nunya_ | Good! | 15:55 |
| oerheks | all isos are here https://torrent.ubuntu.com/tracker_index | 15:56 |
| oerheks | oh, 20.04 is live only? | 15:56 |
| oerheks | then it should work... | 15:56 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>Any way to have xchat and hexchat running at the same time in case I need help configuring hexchat? | 15:56 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: you can run them both at the same time but obviously you'll be using different nicks | 15:57 |
| metbsd | legacy? | 15:57 |
| metbsd | server legacy | 15:57 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>Mind helping setup hexchat to use nunya as my nick and join ubuntu channel? | 16:00 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: not sure what exactly you need to set up, you just install hexchat, launch it, then look at the settings and change them accordingly | 16:02 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>I obviously don't know what I'm doing! | 16:02 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: to install: sudo apt-get install hexchat | 16:03 |
| WaV | What an interesting way to talk to someone after asking for help... | 16:03 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: welcome back | 16:09 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: how far have you got? | 16:10 |
| nunya_ | Can't get hexchat to do anything using xchat unless I can get help getting hexchat going | 16:10 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: what do you see when you launch hexchat? | 16:11 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>Installed hexchat | 16:11 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>list of servers, tried to join freenode | 16:12 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: /connect irc.freenode.org | 16:13 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>Typee "nunya_: /connect irc.freenode.org" into hexchat? | 16:15 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: in the text box you need to type in just type that: /connect irc.freenode.org | 16:16 |
| nunya_ | Ok got welcome message | 16:17 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: now you can change your nick: /nick superawesomeperson | 16:17 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: it will tell you if the nick is already in use | 16:18 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: close both hexchat and xchat. Then run: rsync -av ~/.xchat2/ ~/.config/hexchat # then open hexchat. Most, if not all of your xchat settings should now be part of hexchat | 16:19 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>Actually, it has told me You are now known as superawesomepers | 16:19 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: sorry, that should be: rsync -av ~/.xchat2/ ~/.config/hexchat/ | 16:20 |
| leftyfb | forgot the trailing slash at the end | 16:20 |
| nunya_ | <leftyfb>Please bear with me. Please put in quotes exactly what to type. | 16:20 |
| leftyfb | rsync -av ~/.xchat2/ ~/.config/hexchat/ | 16:20 |
| nunya_ | <leftyfb>Going to close xchat and hexchat and type "rsync -av ~/.xchat2/ ~/.config/hexchat/" into terminal | 16:22 |
| leftyfb | leave out the quotes, but yes | 16:22 |
| nunya_ | <leftyfb>Thanks, hopefully will be letting you know it worked | 16:23 |
| ThinkT510 | !info rsync | 16:23 |
| ubottu | rsync (source: rsync): fast, versatile, remote (and local) file-copying tool. In component main, is standard. Version 3.1.3-8 (focal), package size 314 kB, installed size 680 kB | 16:23 |
| ThinkT510 | neat, rsync is installed by default | 16:24 |
| johnjay | does anybody have this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-440/+bug/1910496 | 16:25 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1910496 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-440 (Ubuntu) "nvidia-dkms-440 440.100-0ubuntu0.20.04.1: nvidia kernel module failed to build" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 16:25 |
| johnjay | apparently i'm getting it on 20.04 | 16:26 |
| johnjay | both apt-get and aptitude refuses to upgrade me to nvidia-driver-460 for some reason | 16:26 |
| nunya_ | <leftyfb>Didn't work. Wouldn't let me join #ubuntu | 16:31 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: why message did you get? | 16:31 |
| nunya_ | Have to close xchat, go back get the message, copy to text file, then tell you. | 16:32 |
| leftyfb | :/ | 16:33 |
| ThinkT510 | if the xchat settings take care of identifying the nick then your rsync command should have just gotten the same result with hexchat, right? | 16:34 |
| ThinkT510 | assuming xchat and hexchat settings are interchangable and compatible | 16:35 |
| oerheks | 2 clients, both same port 6667.. | 16:36 |
| leftyfb | oerheks: they should have only opened hexchat, not xchat | 16:36 |
| oerheks | i agree.. | 16:36 |
| leftyfb | oerheks: also, that's outbound. | 16:36 |
| oerheks | and transfering xchat settings is of no use ... | 16:36 |
| leftyfb | it should have worked. That's how I saved mine back in the day | 16:37 |
| nunya_ | <leftyfb>Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services - see https://freenode.net/kb/answer/registration | 16:38 |
| nunya_ | This nickname is registered. Please choose a different nickname, or identify via /msg NickServ identify | 16:38 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: you do not need to close xchat2 in order to run hexchat. You can run both at the same time | 16:38 |
| oerheks | all i needed to backup is the log stamp; %Y-%m-%d/%n-%c.log | 16:38 |
| leftyfb | !paste | nunya_ | 16:38 |
| ubottu | nunya_: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 16:38 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: ok, that means you didn't login to nickserv. | 16:38 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: http://www.shadowera.com/showthread.php?27418-My-guide-to-setting-up-HexChat-for-IRC-and-registering-your-nick-name | 16:39 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: or https://slackalaxy.com/2016/10/19/hexchat-auto-login/ | 16:39 |
| nunya_ | <leftyfb>I thought this nick was already registered | 16:39 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: it is, you didn't login to authenticate it | 16:39 |
| nunya_ | <leftyfb>Ok what eactly do I need to do to open freenode and join ubuntu channel in hexchat? Sree what I mean? ROYAL PAIN! At least Xchat is working! | 16:41 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: the message you pasted tells you exactly what you need to do: /msg nickserv identify yourpasswordhere | 16:42 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: you read he documentation I gave you | 16:42 |
| leftyfb | or that | 16:43 |
| leftyfb | but the documentation I posted saves it in hexchat so you don't have to type it every time you open hexchat | 16:43 |
| nunya_ | I don't remember the password | 16:43 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: that is a problem then | 16:43 |
| oerheks | ... | 16:43 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: that that is a non-ubuntu, non-hexchat problem. Free free to /join #freenode for help with that | 16:43 |
| nunya_ | I installed Hexchat at the insistence of several people here, I'm sticking with Xchat. It ain't broke I ain't fixing it! | 16:45 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: please understand, your main issue right now is NICKSERV registration which has nothing to do with Ubuntu or Hexchat. You can save the authentication information in hexchat following it's documentation, but to set up the registration or if you forgot your password, that is an issue to be directed at Freenode services | 16:46 |
| oerheks | SASL ( username + password) | 16:46 |
| oerheks | *hint* | 16:46 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: xchat2 is broke, it's not supported and is vulnerable to exploitation | 16:46 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: you are literally one step away from getting it working. you really ought to know your own passwords | 16:46 |
| nunya_ | Too many passwords to remember! | 16:47 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: then maybe the internet isn't for you. Have you tried gardening? | 16:47 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: there are password managers you can use or do the old-school and less securemethod of writing it down | 16:47 |
| octav1a | nunya_: download keepassX | 16:48 |
| courrier | In a headless Xenial, unattended-upgrade is apparently doing some updates for hours, how can i read real time status as if I ran apt upgrade by myself? | 16:58 |
| leftyfb | courrier: you can tail -f /var/log/dpkg.log | 16:59 |
| oerheks | or tail /var/log/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades-dpkg.log | 16:59 |
| courrier | No news in dpkg.log from hours, and in unattended-upgrades.log there's only the report of my failed lock acquisition. there's no -dpkg.log there | 17:03 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>Ok I changed my passord and as far as I know still have the same nick. Can we try again to use hexchat? | 17:03 |
| courrier | it is started with --download-only, may I stop it? | 17:03 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: sure thing | 17:04 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>Pretend I'm a 5 year old and please give me instructions | 17:04 |
| pavlos | courrier: top may tell you if a process is at 100% | 17:05 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: now that you know your password when you have connected to freenode and it asks you to identify you write: /msg nickserv identify mypasswordhere | 17:06 |
| oerheks | sudo apt remove xchat -f | 17:07 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: then it will confirm you have identified and you can /join #ubuntu | 17:07 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: or https://slackalaxy.com/2016/10/19/hexchat-auto-login/ | 17:07 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: you won't be able to identify if you are already logged in on another client with the same nick though | 17:07 |
| ThinkT510 | nunya_: once you've done it manually and verified that it works you can then change the hexchat settings to do it for you automatically (like leftyfb says) | 17:09 |
| nunya_ | <oerheks>Not doing that until I have xchat working! | 17:09 |
| oerheks | leftyfb, i think that guide is outdated? now it is; SASL ( username + password) | 17:10 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: you are here now, you are able to ask for support with hexchat just fine, forget about modifying xchat or messing with it. Please just chat here and follow the help we are providing for hexchat | 17:11 |
| ThinkT510 | leftyfb: you just missed them | 17:11 |
| leftyfb | bah | 17:11 |
| leftyfb | they're not listening at all | 17:11 |
| ThinkT510 | i think their last message meant to say they won't remove xchat until they have hexchat working. looked like a simple typo to me | 17:13 |
| leftyfb | when nunya_ comes back: https://freenode.net/kb/answer/hexchat | 17:16 |
| oerheks | :-) | 17:17 |
| nunya_ | <ThinkT510>It feels like I'm caught in a loop. I do what you tell me Xchat tells me to do something, I do it, then it tells me to do smething else, I do it, then it tells me to do the first thing again! I don't care how lame Xchat is at least I have it working! | 17:25 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: please answer this: which client are you using right now? | 17:25 |
| nunya_ | Sorry, loop problem is for hexchat | 17:25 |
| nunya_ | xchat | 17:25 |
| leftyfb | nunya_: https://freenode.net/kb/answer/hexchat | 17:25 |
| leftyfb | follow that | 17:26 |
| Ether_Man | Hey um. So with ubuntu's openldap server package... How is cn=config set up to be authed against? dpkg never gives an option for setting a config password or anything | 17:34 |
| lotuspsychje | Ether_Man: try #ubuntu-server maybe | 18:24 |
| blb4393 | should 20.04.2 come with the kernel 5.8 ? | 18:25 |
| lotuspsychje | blb4393: when you download the current iso, yes | 18:26 |
| blb4393 | and if I sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade? | 18:27 |
| lotuspsychje | blb4393: are you on 5.4 still? | 18:27 |
| blb4393 | yep | 18:27 |
| lotuspsychje | blb4393: then you will need !HWE | 18:27 |
| ioria | blb4393, 'apt -s full-upgrade' will tell you (and will probably show linux-generic-hwe-20.04 in the list) | 18:29 |
| Ether_Man | On that note, what version will 21.04 use? Also 5.8 or? | 18:30 |
| spectrezh | Hi, Please help a desperate man in need.. I went in to KDE on my PopOS and went to system settings, hardware, display and clicked something to try to enable composition. I reboot and now it only loads in emergency mode. Im in a terminal type shell and resolution is a disaster.. cant really work in this mode or see logs properly | 18:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Ether_Man: 21.04 is still in development | 18:32 |
| leftyfb | !popos | spectrezh | 18:33 |
| ubottu | spectrezh: The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle) | 18:33 |
| lordcirth__ | spectrezh, sorry, PopOS is not Ubuntu and is not supported here. Try https://support.system76.com/ ? | 18:33 |
| Ether_Man | lotuspsychje: right, hence the term, WILL. You know, future. While I know feature freeze is still 20 days away, since newer kernels are available, it should already be known if it will use 5.8 or newer should it not? | 18:34 |
| arash | Hello, How can i see ip connfig for a network in ubuntu 20 ? I mean i have access to a server and i want to findout is the ip address assigned to this server via dhcp or it has a static ip address, can anyone help ? | 18:34 |
| leftyfb | arash: ip a | 18:35 |
| lordcirth__ | arash, look in /etc/netplan for the config | 18:35 |
| lotuspsychje | Ether_Man: until the official releasenotes of an ubuntu release we cant predict | 18:36 |
| lotuspsychje | Ether_Man: you can !info linux-image-generic in #ubuntu+1 for current kernel | 18:37 |
| blb4393 | ioria: sudo apt -s full-upgrade shows -> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgrade | 18:37 |
| ioria | blb4393, what's kernel ? uname -r | 18:37 |
| blb4393 | 5.4.0-65-generic | 18:38 |
| leftyfb | blb4393: sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-20.04 | 18:38 |
| Ether_Man | lotuspsychje: funny how you can't predict it when I just found the info on the site.. 5.11 or newer. So no it won't be staying on 5.8. | 18:39 |
| ioria | blb4393, ok, then install it manually (if you want it) | 18:39 |
| leftyfb | ioria: hwe | 18:39 |
| arash | lordcirth__: thank you for that, i found that and there are ip addressess and getway on the file but are they assigned automaticly or these settings are static ? | 18:41 |
| ioria | leftyfb, yep | 18:41 |
| leftyfb | arash: if they are specified in the config they are static | 18:41 |
| lordcirth__ | arash, static. If it was dhcp, it would just say "eth0: dhcp" or similar. | 18:41 |
| leftyfb | arash: why are you asking? | 18:41 |
| lotuspsychje | Ether_Man: we will see at final release shall we | 18:41 |
| Ether_Man | lotuspsychje: seems highly unlikely that they would roll BACK from the daily builds no? | 18:42 |
| blb4393 | what libgl1-mesa-dri version come with the 20.04.2? | 18:42 |
| leftyfb | blb4393: are you running 20.04.2? | 18:43 |
| blb4393 | it says i am | 18:43 |
| leftyfb | blb4393: apt-cache policy libgl1-mesa-dri | 18:43 |
| blb4393 | i know what version is installed on my machine, that wasn't the question | 18:44 |
| leftyfb | blb4393: why do you need to know? | 18:44 |
| arash | leftyfb the actual problem is there is a server in a university with a none-public ip address but somehow they assigned a valid public ip address to that server, so there is a public ip address which connected to this server but there is no sign of this ip address on the server settings... and i want to know how they did it... | 18:44 |
| blb4393 | if the kernel were not automatically updated i can assume that some other parts were also not upgraded | 18:44 |
| leftyfb | blb4393: the libgl1-mesa-dri version is not directly tied to the kernel version | 18:45 |
| blb4393 | can someone answer the damn question | 18:45 |
| leftyfb | arash: they could have just used the ip command to set it live | 18:45 |
| leftyfb | blb4393: since 20.04.2 was just released, if you download the 20.04.2 iso, you will more than likely get the same version available to your machine running 20.04.2 now | 18:46 |
| blb4393 | geez | 18:47 |
| blb4393 | i checked with the package search - 20.2.6-0ubuntu0.20.10.1 is the version in 20.10, same as mine. So I assume that except the kernel everything else is updated properly. See the point "support" channel? | 18:52 |
| compdoc | blb4393, what is the apt -s option? Ive never used that | 18:52 |
| blb4393 | simulate i assume | 18:53 |
| leftyfb | blb4393: can you explain your point? You never mentioned anything about 20.10 and as I said before, that packages version is not directly tied to the kernel, as you discovered after taking the time to research yourself | 18:54 |
| blb4393 | it doesn't need to be tied to the kernel to be fockedup | 18:55 |

| blb4393 | you need to retrain your AI then | 18:58 |
| Maik | geez | 18:58 |
| leftyfb | quite a bit of trolling going on today | 18:58 |
| Maik | so i noticed | 18:58 |
| oerheks | <blb4393> should 20.04.2 come with the kernel 5.8 ? >> only fresh installs | 19:11 |
| leftyfb | they were told this, in multiple flavors | 19:12 |

| gnUser | Hi guys, is there a way to make my laptop trackpad "single button"? Kind of like a mac, I have no use for the bottom right corner of the trackpad be my right click, I would like to use two fingers to right click | 19:23 |
| mkquist | gnUser: yes you can just two finger click in settings | 19:24 |
| mkquist | gnUser: you can endable tap to click ( i thing thats what you want) | 19:25 |
| sarnold | arash: I think any guide that suggests using networkmanager on a mailserver is probably not the best guide to follow | 19:29 |
| leftyfb | arash: are you trying to install an email server on a desktop or a server? | 19:38 |

| tripelb2 | 20.04 my camera works on cheese, but not on Zoom. 20.04 Dell, usb camera, 2 weeks ago worked fine. | 20:02 |
| tripelb2 | I hear there were sound issues re the ubuntu update and I posted a fix in here days ago. | 20:03 |
| oerheks | zoom snap? | 20:03 |

| dbristow | On an Ubuntu Server 18.04.5 box, anybody else getting a SSL verify error from curl with this: "curl -v https://api.development.push.apple.com" | 20:29 |
| dbristow | unable to get local issuer certificate | 20:30 |
| dbristow | with current copy of ca-certificates installed (update from late January) | 20:30 |
| sarnold | dbristow: reproduced on 20.04 lts too | 20:33 |
| dbristow | sarnold: Darn it | 20:35 |
| dbristow | An older copy of ca-certificates, from like October, works | 20:35 |
| sarnold | dbristow: can you file a bug on this, ubuntu-bug ca-certificates, with your notes? | 20:36 |
| dbristow | sarnold: Will try | 20:44 |
| sarnold | dbristow: oh! I just came across another bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1670769 -- it looks intentional | 21:18 |
| ubottu | Mozilla bug 1670769 in CA Certificates Code "Remove 10 GeoTrust, thawte, and VeriSign root certs from NSS" [S3,Resolved: fixed] | 21:18 |

| ash_worksi | `pass` from PasswordStore uses a GPG key to encrypt your passwords; when you try to view them, it prompts your for your password to decrypt. If you mistype your password, it counts down 2 more tries (I assume before locking you out). Does anyone know how to avoid this? (like remove the limit and/or lockout time, or at least UP the limit) | 21:46 |
| ThinkT510 | forgot your password? | 21:47 |
| sarnold | my wild guess without looking is that that probably requires modifying the tool and rebuilding it | 21:48 |
| ash_worksi | ThinkT510: no, but I have been known to lock myself out of a server by mistyping my password more than once | 21:48 |
| ash_worksi | sarnold: so, this isn't like a "add such and such to an rc file" sort of thing? :( | 21:49 |
| sarnold | ash_worksi: probably not | 21:51 |
| ash_worksi | boo | 21:51 |
| ash_worksi | it looked like an ubuntu overlay for the password prompt, so I thought maybe this is just they way it is for all GPG encryption | 21:51 |
| ash_worksi | (regardless if you're using the `pass` command or not) | 21:51 |
| dbristow | sarnold: This looks really bad, is there a way to install an older copy of ca-certificates then? | 21:52 |
| dbristow | Until Apple fixes this, we have a big problem | 21:52 |
| dbristow | (my customer) | 21:52 |
| hendaus | error: snap "whatsdesk" has "install-snap" change in progress how can i solve this ? | 21:53 |
| ash_worksi | while people are in the mood to answer wildly OT questions, nobody happens to know if there's a way to get screen to work nicely with vim, less, etc (that is, moving up and down on a page doesn't add splices of your file to your scrollback buffer) | 21:53 |
| ThinkT510 | ash_worksi: tried tmux instead of screen to see if it is a screen specific issue? | 21:55 |
| sarnold | dbristow: be sure to file the bug here, one with apple; you can find older versions linked on https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ca-certificates to manually install | 21:55 |
| ash_worksi | ThinkT510: I didn't really want to install tmux on the remote machines | 21:55 |
| TJ- | ash_worksi: set the correct, compatible, TERM possibly? | 21:57 |
| ash_worksi | TJ-: I tried that actually | 21:58 |

| oerheks | "unofficial whatsapp client for linux" https://snapcraft.io/install/whatsdesk/ubuntu | 22:24 |
| oerheks | i wonder if it still works.. | 22:24 |
| sarnold | bancroft: afaik sighup is the only signal bash re-sends to its children, look for 'disown' inthe bash manpage for my guess -- and it might provide you with links to the right places in the source to double-check, if you need to | 22:31 |
| hendaus | oerheks: i did it but still the same problem plz help me | 22:32 |
| hendaus | oerheks: i need the whatsapp coz my child has online in group | 22:33 |
| oerheks | i am not sure there is a working API, only https://web.whatsapp.com | 22:34 |
| hendaus | oerheks: coz on the web is slowly but with whatsdesk is better | 22:37 |
| hendaus | how can i solve the error please? | 22:37 |
| oerheks | one could try to reinstall, but i am not aware of a working whatsapp snap package. | 22:39 |
| hendaus | ok thank you | 22:41 |

| frad | waht can I run to duplicate the left stream of a stereo audio, so I get sound on both earplugs and not just the left one? | 23:04 |

| maxFlexGuest | How can I expect Ubuntu Linux to perform on a robot with 16 cores and a burst speed of 5.0GHz or higher paired with 128GB of system memory? | 23:12 |
| genii | frad: probably something like ffmpeg -i inputfile.mp4 -af "pan=mono|c0=FL" outputfile.mp4 | 23:16 |
| frad | genii, will that also copy the video? | 23:16 |
| genii | frad: Yep | 23:17 |
| genii | frad: That will take the left audio ( FL ) and duplicate it for the right making the sound mono, but in both channels | 23:18 |
| frad | genii, much appreciated, you have been of extreme help. | 23:19 |
| frad | genii, on a terminal, if I run ctrl+f to find a command, it will show just the last combination of that command I used, but I want to see all instances. Can I do that? | 23:23 |
| sarnold | history | grep command ? | 23:24 |
| frad | thx sa | 23:26 |
| frad | thx sarnold | 23:27 |
| sarnold | frad: depending upon what you're trying to do, you may want to change your bash history settings to write the history file more often, or perhaps try https://github.com/nicksherron/bashhub-server and https://github.com/rcaloras/bashhub-client | 23:27 |
