[00:08] Betal, you only need one EFI on one pc [00:09] metbsd: yes, but I want to move the efi to diskB, so I want to ensure it boots from diskB before deleting efi from diskA [00:11] metbsd: iam sure 2 efi (1 in each disk) should work even if we only need 1 in total [00:11] then you just delete the one you dont want [00:11] you can check grub wiki on archlinux [00:11] then I can't boot without a live usb [00:12] you have EFI partition [00:12] one efi don't interfer the other, why would it? [00:12] and it has grub installed as you said [00:12] yes, both efis have grub installed [00:13] then it's safe to delete one of them, just use one of them [00:13] if it doesn't boot, reinstall grub with proper mount [00:13] metbsd: after the diskB efi works, because it don't works or iam missing something in grub-install [00:13] but when it boots, how do you know it's EFI from A or B? [00:14] as far as i know, it doesn't tell [00:14] the motherboard menu say from where you are booting [00:14] i have never tried two EFI partition before [00:14] how old is your motherboard [00:14] you can select in motherboard from where you are booting, thats why you tell an ID for the bootloader [00:15] the --bootloader-id=GRUB [00:15] ok, but my motherboard boot menu just tell me the efi name [00:16] ok i haven't tried two EFI partitions before, but as far as i know, the bios will goes into EFI partitions and read all available boots [00:16] efibootmgr show all entries and bootorder, samething that motherboard show [00:17] yes efibootmgr do scan efi partition [00:18] but motherboard, i'm not sure, lets say if you insert another usb or something, boot menu of motherboard will detect it [00:19] yes, it will list everyone who have an esp partition [00:20] what other os do you need to boot? [00:20] any windows? [00:20] only ubuntu matter right now, just use grub to have more options, fallback and things like that [00:21] I find weird that manually typing inside the grub shell from diskB I can boot, but it using the same config as diskA can't [00:21] given ubuntu is inside lvm, it is (lvm...), so it should be the same config for both grubsd [00:22] s/grubsd/grub's [00:22] or Iam missing something obvious there [00:25] I've been working on cpanel and slack remotely, so haven't been watching here. [00:25] I did *not* submit a bug report, as it won't work from here. At present, no other computer available. [00:26] Anyone come up with a solution for the problem with firefox? [00:33] metbsd: no windows/other os, do this change something? [00:40] tomreyn: me again, espace doesn't work in the grub screen [00:55] so, I installed ubuntu and I'm stuck at a grub screen. nothing happens after that, no command, works. I have tried a lot of different solutions [00:55] redbeard83: try holding down shift then [00:55] during boot [00:56] do you know wether it's supposedly uefi or bios booting? [00:56] it's uefi [00:57] hmm then it should be escape. maybe you didnt hit the right time [00:57] I was hitting it like crazy, lol [00:58] redbeard83: when you say "espace doesn't work in the grub screen", then what do you see on screen? [00:58] just "grub" and a blinking "_" [00:58] then maybe you hit escpae too often [00:58] you need to press it once, or once a second, until it takes effect, only. [00:59] I'm using a live usb, it is possible to change grub from here? [01:00] a live usb? you said you installed ubuntu? [01:00] yes, I installed it, but I never pass this grub screen [01:00] type "normal" next time you hit it [01:00] so I had to use the live usb to come here, lol [01:01] oh i see. i suggest you use a second computer or mobile phone to cconnect there then [01:01] I have a SDR but when I try to run URH I cannot connect to it. I instead get an error. Is this the best place to try and resolve the issue? [01:01] The error is, "Failed to start rx mode" [01:02] golden_ticket: is URH a software provided by ubuntu, and are you running wsome ubuntu release (which)? [01:03] tomreyn, yes it is. It's universal radio hacker (the name) and the ubuntu version is 18.04 [01:04] golden_ticket: what's the package name? === redbeard8343 is now known as redbeard83 === pclark361 is now known as pclark36 === pclark36 is now known as KL5AY [01:04] tomreyn, it just says universal radio hacker in the software center [01:04] idk [01:05] oh it's probably a snap then [01:05] it is [01:05] did you do what it says here? https://snapcraft.io/urh [01:06] tomreyn: escape isn't working, nor typing normal [01:06] redbeard83: hmm, okay, what's this hardware? [01:06] tomreyn, yes i did. I ran the command, "sudo snap connect urh:raw-usb" [01:06] i5, nvidia gtx1650, 8gb ram [01:07] I had opensuse on this machine, I tried to install ubuntu and it's not working [01:07] redbeard83: ah, sorry, i had asked before. so opensuse worked for you? [01:08] before yes [01:08] now I tried to reinstall it and it had another grub problem [01:08] redbeard83: ubuntu, or opensuse? [01:08] opensuse [01:08] what was the grub problem you saw there? [01:09] I don't remember [01:10] could the graphic card have anything to do with it? I was using opensuse with gtx750 ti, I changed to the gtx 1650 and everything was working. But, after the installation nothings worked anymore, lol [01:10] redbeard83: it could be a power supply problem [01:11] Bug 1917191 [01:11] bug 1917191 in firefox (Ubuntu) "foxfire will not start" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1917191 [01:11] foxfire? :) [01:11] so, should I replace the 1650 for 750ti? [01:12] tomreyn, any idea? [01:12] redbeard83: if things were working fine with the gtx750 ti for a while, and you still have that available, then i'd use that to see whether it makes it boot properly [01:13] redbeard83: but this rather sounds like a hardware / firmware issue so far. or a broken installation. if you get stuck on the grub prompt, then the linux kernel and any drivers have not been loaded. [01:14] so either something is broken with grub, or with the efi system partition grub is stored on, or some hardware or the 'bios configuration' is malfunctioning. [01:14] I did like 6 instalations today, lol [01:15] golden_ticket: no, i'm out of ideas there, do not know the software. RX refers to receiving data, but i assume you know so much. [01:16] redbeard83: of ubuntu 20.10? all with this very result? [01:16] 2 popos, 3 ubuntu and one opensuse [01:16] golden_ticket: see the support options available on the developer website. [01:16] both pop and ubuntu had the same problem [01:17] redbeard83: it's good that you're telling this now. [01:17] tomreyn, thanks [01:17] apport-collect 1917191 did not work, as it needs a browser too. [01:17] tomreyn: anything else to do? [01:20] tomreyn:( [01:21] johnfg: try running it as BROWSER=chromium-browser apport-collect 1917191 or whichever web browser you prefer [01:23] redbeard83: try installing to different storage media [01:23] redbeard83: maybe oyu have a spare ssd, hard disk, or removable storage? [01:23] redbeard83: it could also be another usb stick [01:24] I will look for another one [01:25] redbeard83: and in case you changed bios settings recently (before things stoped working), try resetting it to ("optimized") manufacturer defaults [01:27] redbeard83: you can also run a memory test (memtest86.com provides one which is uefi bootable and free for personal use), and, on some systems, firmware supported hardware diagnostics [01:28] disabling the "secure boot" bios configuration can sometimes help [01:29] johnfg: any luck with this? [01:33] johnfg: are there recent files in this directory? ls -lah ~/.mozilla/firefox/Crash\ Reports/pending/ [01:34] tomreyn: I reste the bios already. I tried one last time to boot and 3 rectangles appeared: one green with an "!", one red and another one pinnk [01:35] johnfg: if so, run export MOZ_CRASHREPORTER_DISABLE=1; /usr/lib/firefox this may enable the ubuntu crash reporter to capture the crash [01:37] redbeard83: this is probably hardware specific. do you know which mainboard you have there? it may say on the very first hardware initialization screen when you reboot [01:38] it's a gigabyte [01:38] that's... a brand ;) [01:39] their models are usually called GA-something i think [01:39] it's h110m-h [01:41] redbeard83: maybe a cmos reset would help there. but that's all in the hardware domain, try asking the folks in ##hardware for further suggestions (they will know better), or gigabyte support. [01:45] tomreyn: yes, there are files in that directory. [01:45] I'll run the export cmd. [01:45] johnfg: but are there *recent* files there? [01:45] Hey I'm trying to run an application via X11 on ssh. However when I try to run a particular application I get an error, cannot open display: localhost:10.0. Typically I'm able to run any graphical application [01:46] can anyone help me resolve this issue? [01:46] Yes. How did you want me to run the export cmd? export MOZ_CRASHREPORTER_DISABLE=1; /usr/lib/firefox doesn't work. === wodencafe is now known as WodenCafe [01:46] johnfg: "doesn't work" as in? [01:47] It returns, running it as you entered: bash: /usr/lib/firefox: Is a directory [01:48] johnfg: oh, my bad, make it export MOZ_CRASHREPORTER_DISABLE=1; /usr/bin/firefox please [01:49] johnfg: but for now, if you can try to do the apport-collect instead, this may be more useful [01:49] Segmentation fault (core dumped) was the result. [01:50] does this exit? ls -l core* [01:50] *exiSt [01:56] johnfg: apparently ubuntu is configured (out of the box, as per /etc/apport/blacklist.d/firefox ) not to create crash reports for firefox. so this is not really fruitful. i suggest you focus on reporting the bug with apport-collect instead. [01:56] johnfg: try running it as BROWSER=chromium-browser apport-collect 1917191 or whichever web browser you prefer [01:57] and i'm off to bed.

[02:51] ducasse, I am. but I'm using terminal in the graphical environment [02:52] right, try running one from the server, like xterm [02:53] ducasse, tried with xterm yet i get the same error [02:54] try 'xhost +' on the client [02:55] https://pastebin.com/DWanHF2S [02:55] crap [02:55] wrong paste [02:55] access control disabled, clients can connect from any host [02:55] that's what I get when running xhost + on client [02:56] now try running your application [02:57] didn't work :/ [02:57] hmmm, then i'm running out of ideas [02:57] sorry [02:58] it's okay :< [03:00] is there a way to customize where an app opens its first window? Some of the default to the (0,0) position on a two monitor setup. Can I change that? [03:03] amazoniantoad: you can run x apps from the terminal locally, right? [03:03] yes [03:03] just not this particular app [03:04] it's weird, it looks like a permission issue, but xhost + should resolve that [03:04] does 'echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE' returb 'x11'?

I'm trying to install roundcube (webmail server) on an Ubuntu 20.10 server. I want this server to have nginx but not Apache, but when I run "apt install roundcube", it installs Apache. Is it possible to install roundcube from a package without installing Apache? [08:40] blahboybaz: which is why I get them when they are at least five years old [08:40] You get them for a much lower price as a result [08:41] Install log: https://paste.centos.org/view/e4001b28 [08:42] CapnKernel: apt is smart, when it wants to install depends let it be [08:43] CapnKernel: try installing nginx first, then install roundcube with --no-install-recommends, but i don't know if it'll work [08:43] Thanks ducasse, I'll try that [08:49] blahboybaz: you could also try unity-desktop ontop ubuntu desktop, they got some proper touch support [08:58] I just tried booting into a live usb with persistent memory.

[18:31] oerheks, no no, just very peculiar when it comes to fonts [18:45] Hi! Does an alternative to Samba exist when it comes to CIFS shares? I'd like something with a more modern and simpler codebase. Samba probably contains 95% functionality which I never will use.

Thanks! [19:46] Hahaaa [19:58] gnome-system-monitor reports different numbers for 'free' vs 'available' space on my disks. [19:58] what's the difference between free and available? [20:49] I got a new Acer laptop and i've tried both ubuntu 20.04 (which I had to switch from because a wifi driver bug) and now 18.04, and every time I do a system update with apt update, the BIOS SATA mode gets reset and make my laptop fail to boot. I need to get into boot, remember some obscure key stroke to get the advanced SATA mode setting to show up, and switch it to AHCI for it to boot again. It's really annoying but I havent had [20:49] any luck googling for solutions [20:49] I need to get into the BIOS* [20:50] samdragon: The BIOS settings change when you update the OS? [20:50] samdragon: The only way I've seen that happen is in a system that is failing to boot and then loading BIOS defaults. [20:51] yea, maybe not every time I run `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade` but often, it seems correlated to when there's a new minor kernel update [20:51] samdragon: usually accompanied by a message. with asus it was 'overclocking failed press f1 to load defaults or f2 to enter setup' [20:51] samdragon: whether overclocking was involved or not. [20:52] samdragon: what model acer? [20:52] havent seen that error message. it seems like the BIOS defaults (whatever are getting reset to) are causing the failure to boot [20:52] the message is something like "cant find drive " [20:53] the drive is NVME or whatever, which I believe is different than SATA [20:54] samdragon: what model? [20:54] Swift 5 [20:56] samdragon: swift 5 launched 2016... I'm assuming yours is a newer generation? [20:56] samdragon: 7000-series Intel CPU? [20:56] yea, the model number from uname -a is Swift-SF514-54T [20:56] how do I check the CPU device info [20:57] model number is enough. you can `cat /proc/cpuinfo` if you want though [20:57] looks like 10000 series intel [20:58] i7-1065G7 [20:58] yeah it can suck being the tester for linux compatibility with cutting edge hardware - especially laptops. [20:58] with more proprietary firmware/parts [20:59] did you upgrade to HWE kernel? [21:00] HWE edge? [21:00] might help, if you haven't already. [21:00] i dont think so, let me check [21:00] worth a shot. leave your old kernel installed too so you can easily switch back if it doesn't work right. [21:03] it says it was already the newest version, "now set to manually installed" [21:04] samdragon: so you've got linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04-edge? [21:05] I ran this, from the LTS enablement stack page: `sudo apt install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-18.04 xserver-xorg-hwe-18.04` [21:05] not sure how to check for the -edge package [21:06] samdragon: edge MIGHT be same version as hwe, but check by running `sudo apt install linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04-edge` [21:06] hello how can i update the libgcrypt 1.9 library ? [21:06] guaj0: what version of Ubuntu are you running? [21:07] 18.04 and 20.04 [21:07] @Croran looks like that was not installed yet [21:07] principal 18 [21:07] samdragon: so it gave you a new version, or just installed the metapackage? [21:08] hmm, i dont know the differene [21:08] guaj0: 18.04 or 18.10? [21:08] The edge kernel should be the same as the hwe [21:08] samdragon: something in the apt messages would have mentioned a kernel package being installed beyond just the linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04-edge metapackage [21:08] @Croran 18.04 [21:09] Setting up linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04-edge (5.4.0.66.74~18.04.61) [21:09] guaj0: so you're trying to install libgcrypt20 version 1.9? [21:09] samdragon: sounds like you got a new kernel [21:10] yea I dont think it was a new kernel [21:10] The 5.4 kernels are the newest that 18.04 can get through normal means [21:11] samdragon: oh? what does uname -a say? [21:11] guaj0: looks like the ubuntu repos only have libgcrypt20 packages up to 1.8.7 even if you went with the 21.04 pre-release packages (which might not even work with 18.04). [21:12] guaj0: so you'd need to compile it from source or find another source of packages [21:12] guaj0: https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libgcrypt20&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all [21:12] @Croran I have read that the version I have 1.8.1 is insecure, I have done an update but there is no change. I have to get the latest version 1.9.1 or 1.9.2. [21:12] guaj0: if there's a known issue, it's possible the ubuntu maintainers already patched it. regardless of version. [21:12] 5.4.0-66-generic #74~18.04.2-Ubuntu [21:13] samdragon: ok. sounds like the same version you mentioned shown in the 'edge' install so yeah not new. [21:13] so I think I need to reboot, and it'll say .61 rather .2 [21:13] samdragon: 18.04.2 is just the OS version [21:14] guaj0: why is it not secure? [21:14] oh ok [21:15] samdragon: have you checked for BIOS updates? [21:16] no, i havent done anything to the bios [21:16] @jeremy31 https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-announce/2021q1/000456.html this is for 1.9.0 i have in ubuntu 18.04 -> Libgcrypt 1.8.1 [21:16]
