| chev | Hello, I set up a network consisting of three pc's, 1 with CentOS, 1 with latest Ubuntu Desktop, and one with latest Ubuntu Server. I have the ubuntu server running wireless internet. I'm connecting the three computers via a unmanaged switch. I would like to set proxy settings through the ubuntu desktop, using the ubuntu server to get internet, but am having issues. I tried editing the apt.conf tile to test my settings, | 01:24 |
| chev | but I keep getting 111 connection refused. Can someone assist me, if available? I am a novice, Linux Essentials cert | 01:24 |

| oerheks | only in the next Hirsute https://launchpad.net/f2fs-tools/+packages | 01:33 |
| chev | sarnold: well thats the other thing i was wondering, am I supposed to download something like squid on my server to accept these requests? | 01:33 |
| qwertuttyty | i know :) | 01:33 |
| qwertuttyty | 1.14 | 01:34 |
| oerheks | qwertuttyty, oh wait, you know that backporting is just a matter of time? | 01:34 |
| sarnold | chev: well, you said proxy, so I went with that :) what *are* you trying to do? | 01:34 |
| qwertuttyty | https://packages.debian.org/unstable/f2fs-tools-udeb | 01:34 |
| chev | sarnold: i want my ubuntu desktop to be able to access the internet through my ubuntu server. | 01:35 |
| chev | :) | 01:35 |
| toothe | got it working!! | 01:35 |
| toothe | whoa | 01:35 |
| sarnold | chev: aha, so something more like NAT then? | 01:35 |
| sarnold | toothe: sweet, what was it? | 01:36 |
| toothe | with docker-compose, can I create an arbitrary container to use psql on? so I can check how my db is doing? | 01:36 |
| chev | im looking up what NAT is, one sec. ^_^; | 01:36 |
| toothe | sarnold: so...I installed Ubuntu, the docker settings changed the DNS | 01:36 |
| chev | sarnold: yes, that sounds like what I am trying to do. | 01:37 |

| qwertuttyty | 1.11 = 2018 year | 01:39 |
| oerheks | qwertuttyty, we know | 01:41 |
| oerheks | now wait for the backport nothing we can do here | 01:41 |
| oerheks | or build it yourself :-P | 01:42 |
| sarnold | backportpackage(1) may be useful | 01:43 |
| chev | ty looking at it | 01:43 |
| sarnold | chev: sorry, backportpackage might be more useful for qwertuttyty, if he or she needs a newer version of a package on an older release | 01:44 |
| sarnold | chev: 99% of this thing is beyond me https://lartc.org/ -- and probably not all useful for doing NAT, but potentially it has answers to questions :) | 01:45 |
| qwertuttyty | and? We know i know but give me xompression for h2fs. we have a debean package 1.14.0-2 but cannot install, dependency does not allow. | 01:45 |

| qwertuttyty | No, I can't help it. | 02:09 |
| tharkun | tomreyn: That is supposed to be an LTS release of ubuntu. I really am up to date regarding system updates and upgrades. I have no clue why the package manager did not update the kernel. Or if it is an unsafe version I am running. | 02:12 |
| foxide | tharkun: What's the issue? | 02:13 |
| tharkun | Core dump and aptitude failing to update some programes before freezing and doing the dump. | 02:15 |
| tharkun | The server is running for the moment but I am uncertain of the stability of it. Will it manage a full reboot? ... | 02:16 |
| tharkun | Nothing fancy. | 02:16 |
| tharkun | foxide: Thanks for asking. | 02:16 |
| sarnold | tharkun: pastebin the error? | 02:16 |
| sarnold | check dmesg? | 02:16 |
| tharkun | sarnold: I pasted it on the channel 3 lines of messages like 3 or 4 days ago. I will admit that looking into dmesg was not done or recorded. | 02:20 |
| sarnold | Mon 15 21:13:25 < tharkun> Good $DAY I just got this from an update FATAL -> Failed to fork. | 02:20 |
| sarnold | that? | 02:20 |
| tharkun | Yes | 02:21 |
| sarnold | that's quite likely out of memory | 02:21 |
| sarnold | how's free -m look? | 02:21 |
| tharkun | IIRC it has like 700MB free I currently cannot log into that particular server. | 02:22 |
| oerheks | apt install -f # usually fixes things | 02:23 |
| tharkun | oerheks: I know what apt install does but I know nothing about the -f switch. | 02:24 |
| sarnold | -f usually fixes things :) heh | 02:25 |
| sarnold | why can't you log in? | 02:25 |
| sarnold | do you have an open session with it somewhere else you can use instead? | 02:26 |
| tharkun | sarnold: An iptables thingy I rolled out. I can only log in through the office connection using a specific gateway. Got tired of overpopulated auth and access logs. | 02:27 |
| sarnold | tharkun: aha | 02:28 |
| tharkun | Works like a charm :) | 02:28 |
| sarnold | tharkun: once you can log in, check how much memory is free. check slabtop output to see if there's a kernel memory leak on the system -- someone ran into that last week in here | 02:28 |
| sarnold | iirc the slab with ridiculous use was kmalloc-128 | 02:29 |
| tharkun | sarnold: assuming that slaptop detects a kernel memory leak, how do I recognize it. I've never used such tool | 02:31 |
| sarnold | tharkun: there's no easy way to convey that kind of intuition :( here's the /proc/slabinfo on my laptop at the moment https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/2t5WhNZnBt/ | 02:33 |
| sarnold | tharkun: near the end, the kmalloc- entries shows peaks at 1k, 32, and very few 128 ... | 02:34 |
| sarnold | tharkun: the distribution may vary from machine to machine, based on what the machine does, what kernel datastructures are used, etc, so it's just a guideline.. | 02:35 |
| sarnold | tharkun: but the dude last week had a kmalloc-128 line that stood out by a LOT, iirc it was two digits longer than the surrounding sizes on his system | 02:35 |
| tharkun | I see, I will have to take several snapshots and do a reboot in between them. Thanks very much for your time and knowledge. | 02:35 |
| sarnold | the difference between 1k and 512 on my system is making me slightly suspicious, even, but .. it seems to be fine... | 02:36 |
| sarnold | .. anyway, when I did the math on how large those objects where, and how many his system had in that slab, it was obvious that it was using up nearly all his physical memory | 02:36 |
| sarnold | tharkun: if the system is barely functional at the console, *maybe* an echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches will give you something to work with. but, uh, it might also take away memory from things the system is running, and it might not be able to get those things back. if you've got a kernel memory leak, then a reboot asap is advised anyway | 02:37 |
| tharkun | nice to know, I will rtfm for slabtop and do some time lapse shots to look for moving stuff. | 02:37 |
| sarnold | nice nice | 02:38 |
| tharkun | The reboot can be done remoteley :) One thing I allways thought of when poking at iptables :) | 02:38 |
| sarnold | nice nice | 02:39 |
| sarnold | that's not always easy to do remotely, even thought sometimes it's the most impportant thing to be able to do remotely :) | 02:40 |
| tharkun | I just need to leave a message for the server to read and bingo it just reboots and mails me when it comes back to life. :) | 02:41 |
| tharkun | Anyway I have to go since this laptop's battery is reaching 5% and the power cord is at the office. I will report tomorrow. Thanks for the time and effort. | 02:42 |
| sarnold | gnight | 02:42 |

| Qen-Joana | I will keep looking for an answer! | 04:47 |
| Qen-Joana | I have already played with the user-dirs.dirs file, and changed my library folders to another location, but adding new library folders did not change anything for Nautilus. | 04:51 |

| john_rambo | Hi, I am using Ubuntu Budgie 20.04 .... I have created a custom launcher on my Desktop ...I want to change its ICON ... How do I do that ? | 07:24 |
| EriC^ | john_rambo: edit it and add Icon=/path/to/icon | 07:25 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, SHould I use a capital "I" ? | 07:26 |
| EriC^ | yes | 07:26 |
| john_rambo | Trying now ... | 07:26 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, Done but its showing a "white" icon instead of the Tor launcher icon ... Do I need to logout/login ? | 07:31 |
| EriC^ | john_rambo: is it +x? | 07:33 |
| EriC^ | chmod +x /file ? | 07:35 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, I tried a different method ...I saved a icon from here >>> https://styleguide.torproject.org/brand-assets/ ....Then I provided the full path in the launcher but its still a WHITE icon | 07:36 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, this is the line in the launcher >>>> Icon=/home/lubuntu/Downloads/tor-browser_en-US/large_icon.png | 07:37 |
| EriC^ | john_rambo: it looks right | 07:38 |
| EriC^ | try to run chmod +x /path/to/file.desktop | 07:38 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, Already done that. Tor browser is fully functional | 07:39 |
| EriC^ | john_rambo: i think tor comes with a .desktop file by default though, why make your own? | 07:39 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, Because I am using it inside firejail | 07:39 |
| EriC^ | what's the location of the .desktop file? | 07:40 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, the original .desktop file is in >>/home/lubuntu/Downloads/tor-browser_en-US/ | 07:41 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, the custom one is in >>>/home/lubuntu/Desktop/TOR.desktop | 07:42 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, The custom .desktop is linked to a shell script which launches Tor inside firejail | 07:43 |
| EriC^ | i see | 07:46 |
| EriC^ | john_rambo: it might show up if you log out and back in | 07:46 |
| john_rambo | EriC^, Trying now .. | 07:46 |

| veryloud | Hello! Does Ubuntu One support MFA? | 15:12 |
| jivan | veryloud: I believe it's still in beta: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSO/2FactorAuthentication | 15:20 |
| SmellyCat | Is there a way in Ubuntu 20.04 to install (and use on demand) a separate older OpenSSL library? I have to check the health of some older HP machines through the iLO via https, but the interfaces only support old ciphers which are not available anymore in current OpenSSL versions. | 15:22 |
| veryloud | jivan: Thank you, I believe 2FA is a must when deploying packages to the Snap store | 15:22 |
| veryloud | Would probably cause havok if someone cracks an account without 2FA and uploads a malicious version of a Snap | 15:23 |
| jivan | Doesn't Snap require PGP signatures? | 15:23 |
| jivan | If not, then I agree, but i'm pretty sure it does | 15:23 |
| jivan | Maybe popey can chime in on this | 15:23 |
| popey | sup? | 15:24 |
| popey | Canonical employees *must* use 2fa, non-Canonical can optionally use it for signing into U1, and thus the Snap Store. | 15:25 |
| popey | Snaps do not require PGP signatures. They're signed by the store. | 15:25 |
| jivan | Ahh, good to know | 15:25 |
| veryloud | hm kk | 15:26 |
| veryloud | I believe either PGP or MFA should be required for all packages before disaster strikes and a popular package gets compromised | 15:27 |
| veryloud | Or maybe I'm exagerating and the risk is low lol | 15:28 |
| popey | Feel free to argue that with the snap store developers :D | 15:28 |
| jivan | Haha — Isn't lack of MFA what caused issues with NPM several times in the past? | 15:29 |
| veryloud | jivan: Precisely | 15:29 |

| signofzeta | Hello, everyone. I need to allow a snap to write to a folder, but AppArmor is blocking it. Ubuntu's tutorial has me create an entire profile, but I see one is already present. Can I just make something in /etc/apparmor.d/local/$AppName and have that add to whatever the snap included? | 16:56 |

| shush | HI, I noticed that installing couchdb with apt results in an interactive interface for configuring the installation. Does this interactive mode apply to apt, and if I use apt-get instead, would circumvent the interactive interface? | 17:48 |
| leftyfb | shush: https://serverfault.com/a/407358 | 17:49 |
| shush | leftyfb: So this interactive interface is not exclusive to `apt` but also something that `apt-get` would present. | 17:54 |
| leftyfb | shush: correct | 17:54 |
| shush | Just out of curiosity, are there reasons to use apt-get over apt? | 17:54 |

| frad | u* | 18:13 |
| leftyfb | frad: please copy this and search the documentation for it: powerfoff | 18:14 |

| aebraham | veryloud: So if iPhones don't use NDIS, is that something I can fix on the phone or a setting I need to change on Ubuntu? | 18:15 |
| frad | I typed systemctl --help, there is a 'poweroff' option listed there | 18:15 |
| veryloud | aebraham: could require a driver | 18:15 |
| leftyfb | frad: yes, poweroff is there, not powerfoff | 18:15 |
| frad | a lol | 18:15 |
| leftyfb | ;) | 18:15 |
| frad | you could have pointed that out though | 18:16 |
| leftyfb | I did, I said it was an invalid command :) | 18:16 |
| frad | corrected: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/9MBhzkjbBH/ | 18:17 |
| leftyfb | frad: I'm also helping to reinforce some attention to detail. That will go a long way :) | 18:17 |
| frad | that's true | 18:17 |
| leftyfb | frad: is there any downside to just testing those out? | 18:17 |
| frad | I don't want to log off | 18:17 |
| leftyfb | I see nothing damaging about either one of them | 18:17 |
| frad | first one will power off the machine, regardeless of how many apps are being used. If vls is the only app being used, how bad is that for the machine long term? | 18:18 |
| frad | I meant vlc* | 18:19 |
| frad | alternatively, would this work? sleep 60m && vlc://quit && sleep 61m && systemctl poweroff | 18:21 |
| === ijohnson is now known as ijohnson|lunch | ||
| leftyfb | frad: I'm not sure I understand the problem. Closing the app, waiting a few seconds and shutting down is just fine | 18:24 |

| leftyfb | you really should test things like this | 18:29 |

| === SneakyNick_ is now known as SneakyNick | ||
| SneakyNick | Hello. Got an unusual question. I suspect I am unable to access BIOS-setup because of Secure Boot. I believe the list of trusted software has been updated because of some stuff, and that my bios version ain't trusted because CA choose to include the updated version, ie not mine. Is there any way I can access the list CA trusts? | 20:18 |
| SneakyNick | I want to check whether CA include only the most recent bios on its list, i.e. excluding mine. | 20:19 |
| sarnold | SneakyNick: that *is* an unusual question; what on earth hardware is this that it's so awkwardly constrained? | 20:20 |
| SneakyNick | Did I express myself clearly? My computer contains a list of trusted software. Can I check/review the list? I need to see if my bios version is on it. | 20:20 |
| SneakyNick | lenovo laptop, ideapad. | 20:21 |
| sarnold | I know next to nothing about the ideapad line but I expected something far more exotic | 20:22 |
| SneakyNick | well, the question seems generic to me. Shouldn't depend on which computer it is. | 20:23 |
| SneakyNick | Do anyone have the opportunity to check the list from CA? | 20:23 |
| SneakyNick | its stored on the motherboard as far as i understand. | 20:24 |
| sarnold | SneakyNick: well, uh, what is "list from CA"? | 20:24 |
| sarnold | SneakyNick: if this is a *standard* consumer machine with nothing strange in it, then there's nothing in the uefi setup that could restrict you from running the uefi setup | 20:24 |
| jivan | SneakyNick: "My computer contains a list of trusted software." — No, that's not how Secure Boot works | 20:24 |
| jivan | Your machine contains a public key that belongs to the manufacturer, and they sign the UEFI releases with the corresponding private key, allowing your mention to verify whether the UEFI you're running was signed by the manufacturer | 20:25 |
| leftyfb | SneakyNick: you can't access your BIOS? | 20:26 |
| sarnold | I'd first assume that (a) perhaps whatever key you're pressing is the wrong key (b) perhaps that key is dead, if it's the right key (c) *maybe* there's a way the OS can request the next boot not allow entering UEFI setup, eg perhaps firmware updates, but that's a big guess | 20:26 |
| jivan | So there is no list that you can refer to; you can only ask the question: "I *have* this version of the software, is it signed?" | 20:26 |
| jivan | Releases cannot be "unsigned" retrospectively, so if you were ever able to get into the UEFI, you should still be able to | 20:26 |
| jivan | Are you dual-booting with Windows, perchance? | 20:27 |
| SneakyNick | jivan: those keys are in this context utilized for verifying software integrity, to check if they are allowed to run. For practical purposes, functionally its a list. | 20:28 |
| jivan | There is no list. To construct a list, one would need to exhaustively look at every piece of UEFI softare that has ever been created and check to see whether it was signed by the manufacturer | 20:29 |
| SneakyNick | leftyfb: bios-setup. bios itself is working fine, of course. | 20:29 |
| jivan | Anyway, so you're mashing F2 on boot but it's not going into the settings? | 20:29 |
| leftyfb | SneakyNick: what is "bios-setup"? | 20:30 |
| Guma | Hello. I have postgres 13 installed and also have some docker conatiners. postgres is not running inside container. I modified postgres cond file to listen on docker0 interface. The problem is that on reboot docker0 is not available when postgres service starts. I can add "After=docker.service" to /lib/systemd/system/postgresql.service to make this work. | 20:30 |
| Guma | But I am afraid that this is not best solution since another postgres upgrade might overide this file. | 20:31 |
| sarnold | Guma: what errors do you get inthe logs? | 20:31 |
| Guma | @sarnold which specific log? | 20:31 |
| SneakyNick | sarnold: i understand you assume this is a normal case. Let me show you a video. It shows me trying to access bios-setup in what should be the most reliable way, the 'novo'-button. It's a pin-hole button which brings up an emergency menu. I have of course tried all the usual approaches. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKRM8FbFshU | 20:32 |
| sarnold | SneakyNick: ugh :( it might be time to call lenovo on this one | 20:36 |
| sarnold | Guma: wherever postgres logs to :) maybe that's journalctl -u postgresql or maybe that's /var/log/postgres or somewhere else.. | 20:37 |
| SneakyNick | back, sorry for the disconnect | 20:39 |
| sarnold | SneakyNick: I've not seen that novo menu before | 20:42 |
| sarnold | SneakyNick: it feels like it's time to call lenovo support, I'd certainly expect that thing to get you into the uefi setup | 20:42 |
| SneakyNick | jivan: yes, its dualboot with windows. Whether there is an actual list or if its merely components storing their own certificate. At any rate, the bios is either white or blacklisted by a CA. | 20:43 |
| Jonta | Fonts: I've installed `fonts-senamirmir-washra`, the only apt-search hit for "jiret", and still `mktextfm` says "! I can't find file `jiret12'.". What do? | 20:44 |
| SneakyNick | sarnold: lenovo wants me to reset the laptop to factory defaults and update the bios. I don't want to. I'd like to know if my bios is okay by CA or not. | 20:45 |
| SneakyNick | update the bios can be risky. I also want to know what went wrong here. | 20:45 |
| leftyfb | SneakyNick: Lenovo will not ask you to reset/wipe your OS since it's not relevant | 20:45 |
| SneakyNick | leftyfb: those helplines tend to be algorithmic. | 20:46 |
| leftyfb | SneakyNick: at this point, this is not an Ubuntu issue. You need to contact Lenovo for support | 20:47 |
| SneakyNick | leftfb: sure, its not a ubuntu issue. | 20:47 |
| SneakyNick | unsure what type of issue it is. | 20:47 |
| leftyfb | SneakyNick: it's a Lenovo issue | 20:47 |
| jivan | SneakyNick: "At any rate, the bios is either white or blacklisted by a CA." — Sure, point taken there | 20:49 |
| jivan | Anyway, re Windows, you may need to disable fastboot in Windows | 20:49 |
| jivan | Since you have Windows installed, you should be able to get into the UEFI by holding SHIFT when clicking Restart in Windows, which will boot you back into Windows' boot options, one of which should be "UEFI Firmware Settings" | 20:50 |
| SneakyNick | anyway, wanted to ask if anyone here knew a way to check what input secure boot is getting, i.e what SB thinks is okay.. | 20:50 |
| jivan | Otherwise, the documented way to do it on an Ideapad is to mash F2 on boot, or hold FN and mash F2 on boot | 20:50 |
| lord4163 | I have lxd installed as a snap on raspbian and I try to import a qcow2 image using `lxc image import <image>`, but it fails... Error: exec: "qemu-img": executable file not found in $PATH | 20:51 |
| lord4163 | I have qemu and qemu-utils installed as regular packages | 20:51 |
| jivan | Here's what Lenovo says, anyway: https://support.lenovo.com/gb/en/solutions/ht500216-recommended-way-to-enter-bios-ideapad | 20:51 |
| leftyfb | lord4163: you might want to ask for support in #raspberrypi or #snappy | 20:51 |
| leftyfb | lord4163: we can only support Ubuntu here | 20:51 |
| SneakyNick | jivan: the system behaves as if bios-setup isn't allowed to run. It doesn't matter how I try to access setup. The video I shared clearly demonstrate it. | 20:52 |
| lord4163 | leftyfb: ok, well, both LXD and snap are Ubuntu products, so I thought I would have the most luck here. | 20:52 |
| leftyfb | SneakyNick: contact Lenovo support | 20:52 |
| jivan | Sorry, didn't see the video, was AFK for a bit | 20:52 |
| jivan | I'll take a look now | 20:52 |
| SneakyNick | for your amusement: if I repeatedly hit f2, the system pauses. Its as if it tries to load setup, but aborts. When I press f2 many times, its as if there is a process repeating itself many times, as many as f2 is pressed. | 20:53 |
| Apachez | parachute deployed woho! | 20:53 |
| jivan | SneakyNick: From the video, it seems like a firmware bug | 20:54 |
| sarnold | lord4163: is qemu-img on your user's path? or root's path? I'm not sure if I'd expect it to be vendored into the snap or supplied by the system.. | 20:54 |

| tycel | @Jivan That's UEFI I think right? | 20:56 |
| SneakyNick | jivan: that's one alternative. I think the behavior began after installing virtualbox. It interacts with uefi. My 'theory' is that the interaction prompts CA for an update. | 20:56 |

| jivan | "My 'theory' is that the interaction prompts CA for an update." — Not really sure how you think UEFI updates are pushed/released/installed or what have you, but there is no interaction with the signing authority, nor any automatic updates | 20:57 |
| leftyfb | Apachez: what don't you understand? | 20:57 |
| SneakyNick | jivan: I can try to hold shift. But I have tried to access setup through windows installation usb. Going into a repair menu and later choosing access setup. | 20:57 |
| jivan | SneakyNick: I think Windows Update *may* push UEFI updates for some product lines, but unless power was lost during installation, there should be no issues | 20:57 |
| sarnold | lord4163: yeah, I'd hope that's the one that would be used -- do you have a similar one in your snap? can you execute it directly? | 20:57 |

| jivan | Rodsbooks.com is an excellent resource | 21:00 |
| SneakyNick | But in terms of system behavior, it would be a nice fit if the issue is Secure Boot isn't trusting my bios. Hence setup isn't allowed to run. | 21:00 |

| brimestone | Hey guys, I'm trying to use cp on a sh script but, somehow the target file ends up with a "?" in the filename | 21:52 |
| signofzeta | Not sure, brimestone. Can you share the line in question? | 21:56 |
| GZA-Genius | Hi guys i have been using ubuntu fo a good decade both gui (laptop,desktop) and cli (inhouse server) after and update today i have lost my network connection (only have access via my IPMI/BMC) I am running Ubuntu server 20.04 with a 2 channel fiber LAG bond. I setup the bond and ip setting during system install this time. After seeing I had no connection i went to check the setting and see | 22:39 |
| GZA-Genius | there is no /etc/netwok/interfaces file. The system still sees the two nics eno1 eno2. I have tried everything i can think of and done a bunch of googling. I am at a complete loss I am far from a newbie with ubuntu but far from an expert. Any and all help would be appreciated. | 22:39 |
| sarnold | GZA-Genius: I don't know how upgrades from previous releases are handled, but 20.04 LTS and newer uses netplan in stead of ifupdown https://netplan.io/ | 22:40 |
| matsaman | GZA-Genius: I'd try booting from your old kernel first | 22:40 |
| GZA-Genius | no its not an upgrade from previos version | 22:40 |
| matsaman | why isn't it =/ | 22:40 |
| GZA-Genius | just regular system updates sorry not upgrade | 22:40 |
| matsaman | so your network has never worked on this install? | 22:41 |
| GZA-Genius | no it has always worked fine, just after todays updates and reboot the bond dissapeared | 22:41 |
| sarnold | /var/log/dpkg.log keeps track of which packages were upgraded, when; it's a bit miserable to read but it's there | 22:42 |
| sarnold | maybe that can help you figure out which packages to start investigating | 22:43 |
| matsaman | ^ | 22:43 |
| matsaman | linux/kernel/net things | 22:43 |
| jivan | SneakyNick: Should've also linked this earlier when I mentioned Rodsbooks.com, here's a primer for UEFI: https://www.happyassassin.net/posts/2014/01/25/uefi-boot-how-does-that-actually-work-then/ | 22:43 |
| GZA-Genius | and I dont think that netplan or ifupdown are even installed becasuse when I i go to run certain commands it tells me to install obviously i cant because no inet, this is confusing the hell out of me, the only thing i did today was install webmin but i did not make any changes to system except create and install ssl certs to it | 22:43 |
| GZA-Genius | ok let me look | 22:43 |
| sarnold | oh man, webmin | 22:44 |
| GZA-Genius | should i purge webmin and try | 22:44 |
| sarnold | depending upon what they did during installation, it might be easier to start from scratch | 22:44 |
| leftyfb | webmin can severely fubar configs .... you should remove it and never look back. You might have to clean up after it though | 22:46 |
| GZA-Genius | normally i setup network manually after OS install but this time i did during setup and of course they must have changed the system so i am unfamilar with it | 22:46 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: step #1 would be to reboot into the previous kernel | 22:46 |
| GZA-Genius | ok ill do that and see if i can find anything usefull ill bbiab | 22:46 |
| === kwilczynski_ is now known as kwilczynski | ||
| matsaman | webmin and things like it are big security holes | 22:46 |
| leftyfb | matsaman: and just as important, they screw with standard configs | 22:47 |
| matsaman | yup, same problem | 22:47 |
| GZA-Genius | I didnt even really need it it just comes in usefull when i am at work sometimes, and i was bored home on a snow day so said hey let me do this.. and of course it bites me in the but | 22:47 |
| matsaman | pretty sure that's why the distro I use doesn't even provide a package for it | 22:48 |
| matsaman | web admin is a great idea, but that's a hell of a lot of access even if it didn't fubar your configs | 22:48 |
| leftyfb | matsaman: ubuntu doesn't have it in the standard repo's either | 22:48 |
| matsaman | be surprised if any sane distro has, yeah | 22:49 |
| GZA-Genius | yea it was more out of boredom then anything i dont really even need have ssh and a vpn of course this happens | 22:49 |
| matsaman | =) | 22:49 |
| GZA-Genius | ok im gonna purge reboot then do some investigating ill see what i can come up with thanks for your guys input hopefully I wont have to be here all day :) | 22:50 |
| jeremy31 | GZA-Genius: Are we as bad as the dentist? | 22:51 |
| sarnold | good luck :) | 22:51 |
| GZA-Genius | no u guys are great but hopefully wont have to be here asking dumb questions all day | 22:52 |
| oerheks | yes we do. and sometimes an interesting bond issue walks in... | 22:54 |
| rdr | that bond sounds more problematic than the one i had with my ex! | 22:54 |
| GZA-Genius | ok purged still nothing so am i to understand server 20.04 net stack is run by netplan now? because i dont see it installed and i dont see it was removed in the logs anywhere. Is there a tutorial or a manual you guys know of that i can just manually redo my net setting from scratch? Also as of now to make things easier i swtched the switch setting from aggregate to normal switching just to | 22:57 |
| GZA-Genius | try and get a singfle link up and get me online | 22:57 |
| GZA-Genius | so is it normal now in 20.04 for there not to be an interfaces file? | 22:58 |
| sarnold | yeah; as I said I don't know what happens on upgrades | 22:59 |
| sarnold | but on new installs it ought to be netplan | 23:00 |
| oerheks | 18.04 gives netplan too.. | 23:01 |
| sarnold | hmm, really? | 23:02 |
| GZA-Genius | i thought i manually configured interfaces file and stuff on 18.04 | 23:02 |
| sarnold | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes#netplan.io | 23:04 |
| sarnold | huh I didn't realize I did something funny on my bionic system :) | 23:04 |
| GZA-Genius | ok so netplan is install atleast so it wasnt purged | 23:06 |
| sarnold | GZA-Genius: do be careful with the package name; in some releases of ubuntu, this is netplan http://www.bitrot.de/plan.html | 23:07 |
| GZA-Genius | netplan.io for 20.04 correct? | 23:08 |
| GZA-Genius | my /et/netplan/00-installer-config.yaml looks all good | 23:08 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: did you reboot into the previous kernel? | 23:09 |
| GZA-Genius | no let me do that now | 23:09 |
| GZA-Genius | i love you guys this is one of the major reasons i jumped to ubuntu a long time ago community is great well linux in general, i have been saying since i was 14 i need to learn linux then finally at like 24 i said f it and installed ubuntu and forced self to learn basically via google and guys like you so thanks | 23:12 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: ok, now install the HWE kenel package | 23:13 |
| GZA-Genius | i already have hwe installed | 23:13 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: linux-generic-hwe-20.04 | 23:13 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: that should pull in the necessary -modules package you need to load the proper drivers for you server | 23:14 |
| GZA-Genius | ok previos kernel still no net | 23:14 |
| leftyfb | oh,i assumed your rave above was due to it working | 23:14 |
| GZA-Genius | haha no sorry | 23:15 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: please pastebin the output of these: ls -l /sys/class/net ; cat /etc/netplan/00-installer-config.yaml # also make sure 00-installer-config.yaml is only config file in /etc/netplan | 23:16 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: a screenshot will be fine as well | 23:16 |
| rdr | does 20.04.2.0 have hwe already? | 23:17 |
| sarnold | it should, the hwe stack was ready before the discs :) | 23:18 |
| GZA-Genius | ok now with pastebinit i get a temporary name resolution failure which is normal because i have no net conn correct? | 23:18 |
| rdr | sounds normal for no internet | 23:18 |
| GZA-Genius | ill uploasad screenshots | 23:18 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: you have no network, correct | 23:18 |
| matsaman | so you went from 20.04 to 20.04.2? | 23:19 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: maybe also the output of "sudo netplan apply" | 23:19 |
| matsaman | is there a 20.04.2 live OS image? Does networking work from it? | 23:19 |
| GZA-Genius | have not tried that matsaman | 23:19 |
| GZA-Genius | gimme a sc and gather up the screenshots | 23:20 |
| leftyfb | matsaman: this worked before, not much benefit in seeing if it works from a live cd/usb. We know it doesn't work now with the current or previous kernels. | 23:21 |
| GZA-Genius | how can i turn off color coding on the cli interfaces , when the blue color comes up on screen its illegible via ipmi interface | 23:22 |
| GZA-Genius | im on my windows desktop my boy needed to borrow my linux laptop so thats another thing annoying me now lol | 23:22 |
| GZA-Genius | bashrc right? | 23:23 |
| matsaman | leftyfb: it would show a problem with 20.04.2 specifically, vs 20.04 | 23:24 |
| GZA-Genius | like i said it wasnt a major upgrade just a normal package update interval if that helps | 23:24 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: stick this at the end: | cat | 23:24 |
| GZA-Genius | thanks leftyfb | 23:25 |
| GZA-Genius | just need a few to setup a few things on winblows to make this easier | 23:26 |
| GZA-Genius | ill bbiaf gotta get a drink p and download and install a few things you guys are great thanks for all your help so far | 23:28 |
| murpheux | How can I make my ubuntu installation as light as Arch | 23:28 |
| leftyfb | murpheux: install arch or build your own distro | 23:29 |
| matsaman | murpheux: what makes you think arch is lighter than ubuntu | 23:29 |
| GZA-Genius | murpheux dont know if they still release ubuntu core versions | 23:30 |
| murpheux | blogs I guess. Ubuntu server seems bloated with packages and I'd like to pick and choose | 23:30 |
| leftyfb | murpheux: like? | 23:31 |
| murpheux | I mean pick and choose packages than a bunch already done for me which I may not be using | 23:31 |
| Teacup | If you want a more basic setup for a server that you can add onto rather than remove from, you could use debian. | 23:31 |
| matsaman | it's been a while, but I doubt Ubuntu server comes with much by default | 23:31 |
| murpheux | I love apt/apt-get | 23:32 |
| sarnold | GZA-Genius: hopefully helpful https://no-color.org/ | 23:32 |
| the_og_spazzz | Good Afternoon. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me troubleshoot a VNC issue thats driving me absolutely bonkers. | 23:33 |
| the_og_spazzz | I'm attempting to connect from a Win10 PC to a 20.10 system and I keep getting a black screen though I can send input to it. I've enabled Screensharing and I can't seem to find a clear answer via google with several different search terms. | 23:33 |
| GZA-Genius | yes i agree the base ubuntu server is great and you only install what u need, usually i just setup the basic during iunstall to get net access and as i setup things i need it installs the packages you need and it keeps it slim | 23:33 |
| Teacup | the_og_spazzz: What are you using to connect to the VNC server? | 23:34 |
| the_og_spazzz | RealVNC | 23:34 |
| matsaman | murpheux: anyway, you can spin up an ubuntu server, debian, and archlinux install in a VM and compare preinstalled packages | 23:34 |
| the_og_spazzz | Teacup: RealVNC, sorry been a minute since i've been on IRC | 23:35 |
| GZA-Genius | no need to install all the meta packages during install because u think you may use it, as long as you have net access u can install when u do need it, when i first started using i would check off tons of stuff i would never need i have learned since then its unnecessary, but obviously i haven't learned enough :) | 23:35 |
| matsaman | murpheux: although comparing those lists _after_ you install the server software you actually mean to use in the end would be even more useful | 23:35 |
| Teacup | the_og_spazzz: No problem I saw it | 23:35 |
| murpheux | I will do just that @Acou_Bass | 23:35 |
| leftyfb | matsaman: I just spun up a 20.04 container and it's under 1G in size with 547 packages installed. | 23:37 |
| leftyfb | murpheux: ^ | 23:38 |
| leftyfb | murpheux: which packages do you feel shouldn't be there? | 23:38 |
| murpheux | will list the packages after install and compare the numbers also | 23:38 |
| Teacup | the_og_spazzz: Perhaps this is relevant? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1205687/ubuntu-18-04-vnc-grey-screen | 23:38 |
| Teacup | I've not encountered this issue, though it could be due to the fact that I don't use the default DE | 23:39 |
| murpheux | I cannot say specifically, my concern is trying to make my server as fast and quick as possible and thot removing unused packages can help | 23:39 |
| Teacup | I could spin up a VM with default 20.10 to test it if you continue to have issues | 23:39 |
| the_og_spazzz | @Tea | 23:40 |
| leftyfb | murpheux: start with quantifying "fast and quick" and what packages, or better yet, running services you feel are slowing it down. | 23:41 |
| the_og_spazzz | Teacup: I'd really prefer not to switch DE's. Is this known to just be broken in stock? The way the guides all tell it I should just be able to turn on Screen Sharing, connect to my machines IP and go. | 23:41 |
| leftyfb | murpheux: this is everything running on the container I spun up: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/KTR7BppPVs/ | 23:42 |
| leftyfb | murpheux: I did remove snapd ... that is something that can be removed if you don't plan on using it | 23:42 |
| GZA-Genius | here are the screen shots, ill be back in 5 gotta run to bathroom | 23:42 |
| GZA-Genius | https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/18kYPT_fSiIiQQXjWy8uvgjPni902JtPO?usp=sharing | 23:43 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: both pictures are of the same thing | 23:43 |
| kevr | murpheux: there are minimal installations available. you could easily strip an installation down to almost nothing. | 23:44 |
| kevr | honestly, removing packages will not speed up your installation, usually. | 23:44 |
| kevr | the slowdown of your server is due to the applications that it runs and the hardware it has to support those applications. | 23:45 |
| Teacup | the_og_spazzz: Give me a few | 23:45 |
| the_og_spazzz | Teacup: No worries, I appreciate it | 23:45 |
| Teacup | the_og_spazzz: What VNC server are you using? | 23:52 |
| GZA-Genius | leftyfb sorry must have overwritten by ax ill fix now | 23:52 |
| the_og_spazzz | Teacup: Whatever is built in. I haven't changed anything other than go to Settings and turn on Screen Sharing | 23:53 |
| the_og_spazzz | And set a password | 23:53 |
| the_og_spazzz | Teacup: I think its called vino | 23:54 |
| GZA-Genius | leftyfb ok i fixed refresh link | 23:54 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: and what do you get when running: sudo netplan apply | 23:55 |
| leftyfb | GZA-Genius: mind me asking why you need the bonded interfaces on your home network? | 23:56 |
| GZA-Genius | leftyfb added to folder | 23:56 |
| GZA-Genius | but i have that link dissconnect let me enable the bond on switch and plug both fiber in and rerun | 23:56 |
| GZA-Genius | ok i enable lag on switch getting same thing let me reboot switch and server and rerun just to makesure not getting false errors | 23:58 |
