| sarnold | StupidDanbo: what's the permissions on /tmp ? it should be root:root 1777 | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| StupidDanbo | let me look up how to check that | 00:01 |
| sarnold | ls -ld /tmp | 00:01 |
| StupidDanbo | well I had to recreate the folder. but it's root root 4096 ? | 00:02 |
| sarnold | sneakyimp: heh, that's a bit iffy indeed. quite often software packaged like this is instead stored in /opt/blender/ or something similar, and then you configure PATH etc as necessary | 00:02 |
| sarnold | StupidDanbo: 4096 is the size, the 1777 will show up as drwxrwxrwt | 00:02 |
| StupidDanbo | drwxr-xr-x 2 root root | 00:03 |
| sneakyimp | StupidDanbo: copy the entire line you get from sarnold's command | 00:03 |
| sarnold | aha, try sudo chmod 1777 /tmp -- then try again | 00:03 |
| sneakyimp | sarnold: he said it was a symbolic link | 00:03 |
| StupidDanbo | it WAS. I "unlinked" it which just deleted it. so I mkdir it again. | 00:04 |
| StupidDanbo | still getting the same errors. | 00:04 |
| sneakyimp | if you mkdir it, then you have a directory, but *everyone* needs to be able to write it so sarnold is correct, you need to change the read/write/execute on it to 777. so try: | 00:04 |
| sneakyimp | sudo chmod 1777 /tmp | 00:04 |
| StupidDanbo | I did. Still getting the same error: ERROR run hook "configure": cannot create temporary directory for the root file system: Permission denied | 00:05 |
| sneakyimp | StupidDanbo, try ls command again -- let's see if the permissions changed or not | 00:06 |
| sneakyimp | ls -ld /tmp | 00:06 |
| StupidDanbo | yeah it's drwxrwxrwt 2 root root | 00:06 |
| sneakyimp | ok that's good, how about this: | 00:06 |
| StupidDanbo | but the error is from sudo snap tasks 270 | 00:06 |
| sneakyimp | ls -l /tmp | 00:06 |
| sneakyimp | does it have any contents? | 00:06 |
| StupidDanbo | no, because it was a newly created folder. | 00:07 |
| sneakyimp | StupidDanbo: running processes might be creating stuff in there | 00:07 |
| sneakyimp | StupidDanbo: i have no experience with snap, but any process running on your machine should now have permission to write /tmp. | 00:07 |
| StupidDanbo | maybe I need to use the old Windows technique of restarting the computer. | 00:08 |
| sneakyimp | it might help, dunno | 00:08 |
| sneakyimp | sarnold: it seems pretty clunky to edit the PATH yet again, adding another directory for every application installed. put the blender files in /opt/blender-2.92.0 and then create a symbolic link ls -s /opt/blender-2.92.0/blender /usr/local/bin/blender ? | 00:11 |
| sarnold | sneakyimp: yeah, that will probably work | 00:15 |
| eskatrem | Hi, I am trying to compile on ubuntu a C++ project that requires cstddef. however I get errors like "'cstddef' file not found". I have installed libstdc++. what can I do? | 00:15 |
| sarnold | sneakyimp: you may need to go to some effort to tell blender where its files are, though | 00:15 |
| sarnold | eskatrem: you'll also need the corresponding -dev package, those have the header files | 00:16 |
| sarnold | StupidDanbo: it could be you've just moved on to a new error :) check dmesg | grep DENIED for a new entry | 00:17 |
| StupidDanbo | sarnold, I can't see times on these results, but it sorta looks the same. | 00:18 |
| sarnold | StupidDanbo: ah :) try dmesg -T | grep DENIED -- the -T will make the timestamps more legible | 00:19 |
| StupidDanbo | wait this can't be new. there's no link to /home/tmp from /tmp, and all these results show /home/tmp | 00:19 |
| StupidDanbo | ah, not recent. Last one from 7:13. | 00:20 |

| Hash | NotoSans and DejaVu doesn't seem to have Sanskrit glyphs. Which font must I use and how can I specify this font in imagemagick | 00:22 |
| sarnold | Hash: try installing fonts-deva ? | 00:23 |

| sarnold | eskatrem: check dpkg -L libstdc++-10-dev -- you may need to fiddle with -I or something similar | 00:27 |
| Hash | Can you help me specify this font in imagemagick? | 00:27 |
| Hash | It's supposed to be "Noto Sans Devanagari, UI" as displayed in font manager in Ubuntu | 00:28 |

| eskatrem | sarnold: the output of `dpkg -L libstdc++-10-dev `? | 00:38 |

| sarnold | eskatrem: the Makefile looks like it might be prepared for you to pass in INCLUDE=/usr/include/c++/10/ or something similar | 00:45 |

| sneakyimp | sarnold: OK i put the blender stuff in /opt/blender. i added a link ln -s /opt/blender/blender /usr/local/bin/blender this allows me to launch blender from CLI after I close terminal windows and open them again (or source .bashrc or whatever) | 00:56 |
| sneakyimp | sarnold: what shall I do with the blender.desktop file? I did a ln -s /opt/blender/blender.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/blender.desktop and there's a link in there now, but when i hit the super key and type 'blender' it doesn't find the blender app among my installed programs | 00:59 |

| truexfan81 | meh | 01:32 |
| sarnold | what would this thing do? | 01:32 |
| truexfan81 | my jsb webapp for controlling certain backend functions for my game server requires it | 01:33 |

| eskatrem | sarnold: I might have managed to solve my compilation problem, somehow | 01:54 |
| eskatrem | it was a mess, what I did was: 1. find a dummy example of cstddef and compile with clang++-12 | 01:55 |
| eskatrem | 2. it worked, which meant that I had cstddef installed properly | 01:55 |
| === PowerTower_121 is now known as PowerTower_120 | ||
| eskatrem | 3. then, I took the exact clang command that was failing, with all the options, and used that to compile my dummy example | 01:56 |
| sarnold | eskatrem: yay so far :) | 01:56 |
| eskatrem | 4. it was failing, so I wrote a python script that called the same command, but removing the compiler flags one by one until it worked | 01:57 |
| eskatrem | 5. then I edited the makefile to comment out the line where it adds the compiler flag preventing the code to compile | 01:57 |
| eskatrem | unfortunately I am missing something else, but at least the problem with cstddef seems to be solved! | 01:58 |
| sarnold | eskatrem: hahaha :) oh man. which flag failed? | 01:59 |
| eskatrem | sarnold: -m32 | 01:59 |
| sarnold | eskatrem: /cr | 02:00 |
| sarnold | sorry | 02:00 |
| eskatrem | I am an idiot, I should have started to check with a dummy example of cstddef | 02:01 |
| sarnold | eskatrem: okay, so .. it looks like that -m32 is selected when TARGET_CPU=NO_SSE, I think:? | 02:02 |
| sarnold | https://github.com/yaneurao/YaneuraOu/blob/master/source/Makefile#L47 | 02:03 |
| sarnold | eskatrem: https://github.com/yaneurao/YaneuraOu/blob/master/source/Makefile#L445 | 02:03 |
| sarnold | aiming for a pentium 3 is probably going to lead to poor code if you've got a nicer cpu | 02:04 |
| eskatrem | sarnold: yes, it's when the target cpu is pentium3 | 02:04 |
| sarnold | eskatrem: what processor are you targetting? | 02:04 |
| eskatrem | hmm no idea actually | 02:05 |
| eskatrem | which shows once again that I am an idiot and should have checked what processor I needed to target so it doesnt have to try all the targets | 02:05 |
| sarnold | if you're building this to run on your machine, check /proc/cpuinfo or lscpu output | 02:06 |
| eskatrem | yes that's what I was about to do | 02:06 |

| makara1 | hi. Why is there no https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu ? | 08:42 |
| Ravage | Because all packages are signed so you don't need https | 09:30 |
| Ravage | Uses less resources and allows easier mirroring | 09:30 |
| cbreak | Ravage: with https, no one can see that you're downloading emacs instead of using vim, like real programmers | 09:35 |
| Ravage | That statement is correct | 09:36 |
| Ravage | At least the https part | 09:36 |
| Lupulo | cbreak uses apt.el | 09:39 |
| Ravage | If you have any reasonable concern it could harm you if someone knows what open source software you use i recommend a VPN for all your traffic | 09:42 |

| leftyfb | monsterco: did "ubuntu-drivers devices" tell you that 390 was the recommended driver for your chipset? | 14:30 |
| monsterco | yes | 14:31 |
| leftyfb | monsterco: ok, then try that | 14:31 |
| monsterco | k | 14:31 |
| monsterco | what does autoinstall do usually? | 14:31 |
| monsterco | install all other drivers like audio as well maybe? | 14:31 |
| leftyfb | monsterco: I think it just picks the recommended driver and installs that | 14:31 |
| monsterco | and by the way you sure FPS is my problem? | 14:32 |
| monsterco | leftyfb, and it's not always a good thing to install all recommended drivers until there is a need for it? | 14:32 |
| leftyfb | monsterco: don't fix what isn't broken | 14:32 |
| monsterco | right | 14:33 |
| monsterco | this seems like a huge pacakge | 14:33 |
| monsterco | is there a way to test other than typing in terminal to see if my problem is fixed? | 14:33 |
| leftyfb | monsterco: once you install the driver, reboot and see if the issues you experienced are gone | 14:34 |
| monsterco | did and good seems like | 14:39 |
| monsterco | p.s. terminal has a launch with dedicated graphic card | 14:40 |
| monsterco | but with or without it seems to be same | 14:40 |
| monsterco | seems good | 14:40 |
| monsterco | leftyfb, so this is considered an FPS problem? | 14:44 |
| monsterco | the slowness that was | 14:44 |
| === ace_me^^ is now known as ace_me | ||
| leftyfb | monsterco: I'm not sure of the exact cause of the slowness due to inadequate video drivers. I don't think it's just FPS with your display. It seems to be there's a performance issue. Maybe due to not taking full advantage of the GPU and some of that load being placed on the CPU/memory. This is just me guessing based on observation and no real data. | 14:58 |
| monsterco | leftyfb, after install, when I do ubuntu-drivers devices I still see driver nvidia-390 recommended | 15:15 |
| monsterco | does this mean it is still not installed? | 15:16 |
| leftyfb | no, it means it's still recommended | 15:16 |
| |\n | hi guys, could anyone please tell how do i apt-build as in multiarch, e.g. i'd like to try to build not only native amd64 mesa packages, but i386 as well (to see how long it takes, e.t.c) and if amd64 i don't have an immediate clue on how to make it to build the i386 version as well | 16:07 |
| |\n | the native amd64 is okay as expected* | 16:09 |

| thatpythonboy | how is vnc different than ssh -X ? | 17:14 |
| lordcirth | thatpythonboy, ssh -X passes a window object through to your local X server, VNC streams the whole screen as video | 17:17 |
| thatpythonboy | which pkg , there are many | 17:18 |
| thatpythonboy | tigervnc x11vnc or sth, tightvnc... | 17:18 |
| thatpythonboy | they say X is slow ? | 17:18 |
| thatpythonboy | lordcirth: | 17:18 |
| lordcirth | *shrug* they all work as far as I know. Personally I find both VNC and X-forwarding too slow on my connection, but mine is slow. | 17:19 |
| thatpythonboy | which vnc client , server would you recommend lordcirth | 17:20 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: what is your use case? What do you need to do remotely that you can't do over ssh? | 17:21 |
| tiaz | Does anyone happen to know offhand if ISC dhcpd will support globbing in includes e.g. `include "/etc/dhcp/conf.d/*.conf"? | 17:22 |
| tiaz | ha, missed the closing backtick there. I trust it's clear regardless | 17:22 |
| thatpythonboy | GUI leftyfb | 17:23 |
| thatpythonboy | i like ethat | 17:23 |
| leftyfb | tiaz: maybe ask the isc.org | 17:23 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: yeah, I get the "GUI" part. But what exactly is the use case? Do you need a remote GUI browser because local restrictions? Remote control a GUI media player? | 17:24 |
| thatpythonboy | jupyter notebooks | 17:24 |
| thatpythonboy | actually i am just learning vnc first | 17:25 |
| thatpythonboy | i tried ssh -X it was too slow as screen keeps refreshing | 17:25 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: https://fizzylogic.nl/2017/11/06/edit-jupyter-notebooks-over-ssh/ | 17:25 |
| leftyfb | or https://medium.com/@apbetahouse45/how-to-run-jupyter-notebooks-on-remote-server-part-1-ssh-a2be0232c533 | 17:26 |
| thatpythonboy | leftyfb: also over wan, i can reverse-ssh but i never tried, have you? | 17:31 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: almost daily for years | 17:32 |
| thatpythonboy | wow | 17:32 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: look into "sshuttle" that might also do what you want and make things a bit cleaner | 17:32 |
| tiaz | leftyfb: that looks a bit like saying "ask Canonical"; I'm dubious of getting an answer by that route | 17:36 |
| leftyfb | tiaz: you're asking if a 3rd party application is getting a feature that doesn't currently exist. It should be pretty obvious that asking the developer of the application if they are going to implement "feature X" in a future release. Not a distribution that happens to include the application in their list of installable applications. | 17:37 |
| thatpythonboy | how can i find out my router's ip page's address 192.168.1.1 is not working isn't something else | 17:46 |
| thatpythonboy | ifconfig doesn'st show it | 17:47 |
| sarnold | thatpythonboy: if you're connected to it and using it as a default route, 'ip r' will show it | 17:48 |
| thatpythonboy | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/2bVddyPyzj/ | 17:49 |
| thatpythonboy | https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KWQ86mtqMV/ | 17:49 |
| sarnold | thatpythonboy: probably 10.0.0.1 | 17:50 |
| thatpythonboy | i forgot username and password lol, ssh is a pain, can i do it over the reversessh without exposing my server to wan, but shouldn't simple ssh need to work on atleast one machine over wan for reverse ssh to work? | 17:52 |
| thatpythonboy | i want to avoid this whole router config while reverse-ssh | 17:53 |
| === boy-sudo_ is now known as boy-sudo | ||
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: in order to ssh to a remote machine, you need an ssh port exposed on either the remote or, if you want to do reverse ssh, you'll need an ssh port exposed on your local side | 17:54 |
| thatpythonboy | yup that's what i don't like | 17:54 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: having ssh exposed on a non-standard port with root and password authentication disabled is perfectly safe | 17:54 |
| thatpythonboy | u mean using keys | 17:55 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: correct. That is the only way people should be using ssh | 17:55 |
| leftyfb | *safest way* | 17:56 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: exposing VNC on your firewall is a lot less secure | 17:57 |
| thatpythonboy | so with vnc we don't need to configure router? | 17:58 |
| thatpythonboy | how come | 17:58 |
| thatpythonboy | wouldn't some port needs to be opened to listen | 17:58 |
| thatpythonboy | only then like ssh it should work .... so with vnc it | 17:59 |
| thatpythonboy | it's different? | 17:59 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: in order to connect to a remote VNC server, you certainly need to expose the VNC port to the WAN. Unless you're doing port forwarding to VNC over SSH ... which would require you to expose SSH to the WAN instead. Or if you're going to do reverse ssh, you'll need to expose VNC or SSH on your local WAN | 17:59 |
| kevr | local WAN? :o | 18:00 |
| thatpythonboy | local-side's wan | 18:00 |
| leftyfb | kevr: WAN on the client side as opposed to the remote side | 18:00 |
| * kevr creates a local wan and rules the world, in his own mind | 18:00 | |
| kevr | ah. | 18:01 |
| kevr | gotcha | 18:01 |
| thatpythonboy | but bitcoin miners could do it without exposing their's local wan? | 18:02 |
| tiaz | leftyfb: ah, I see. I didn't mean to ask about future releases, I'm asking if that line is something the current release of ISC dhcpd will successfully parse. It's an operational question, not a speculative one. | 18:03 |
| operational | what | 18:03 |
| kevr | thatpythonboy: that is not true. | 18:03 |
| kevr | bitcoin miners do not influence the way that tcp/ip works. | 18:03 |
| tiaz | operational: sorry, didn't mean to highlight you. | 18:03 |
| operational | :P | 18:03 |
| operational | it happens | 18:03 |
| tiaz | but it sounds like the answer to the question "does ISC dhcpd parse globs in include directives" is "no" | 18:04 |
| thatpythonboy | in p2p networking how'd it work, do they too go to their router's homepage to change it ? | 18:04 |
| leftyfb | operational: with a nick like yours, you're going to have to be well aware people are going to use the word in a context that isn't referring to you. Please read their posts and ignore if they are clearly not referring to you. Or change your nick. | 18:04 |
| kevr | thatpythonboy: that question is way too broad. | 18:04 |
| leftyfb | thatpythonboy: you might want #networking at this point | 18:05 |
| operational | tiaz, leftyfb, i was just joking around. i am aware that i will be hilighted from time to time with this nick. | 18:12 |
| kevr | The weapon is operational. | 18:13 |
| kevr | Throw me a freakin' bone here, Scott. | 18:13 |

| Hash | I have mic that is analog, and not usb, and plugs into sound line in port on the back. However, it intermittently works. Sometiems it picks up audio, sometimes it doesnt | 18:39 |
| Hash | How to make sure mic always works? | 18:39 |
| Hash | It's been the most irritating problem. I think I fixed it. Then I reboot or something else and it's gone again. I never know when it will work. | 18:40 |
| Hash | Please help | 18:40 |
| Hash | This is driving me nus. | 18:40 |
| Hash | nuts* | 18:40 |
| kevr | Hash: I'm not sure which audio applet or program you use to change volume, but, in `pavucontrol` (a gui for pulseaudio configuration) there is a Configuration tab, and under that tab each of your audio devices are listed and have a dropdown box. | 18:41 |
| Hash | Pavucontrol | 18:41 |
| kevr | Could you check to see if you have any other configuration options for your sound? | 18:41 |
| kevr | for that audio output, at least. | 18:41 |
| Hash | It is correctly selected. | 18:41 |
| kevr | gotcha. | 18:42 |

| Hash | Rear mic plugged in | 18:42 |
| Hash | But it never picks up audio | 18:42 |
| Hash | I've done everyhign for now a few weekes | 18:42 |
| kevr | you said a moment ago that it's intermittent. | 18:42 |
| Hash | Iv'e used linux since 1994 | 18:42 |
| Hash | I'm not a noob | 18:43 |
| Hash | I've tried literally everything | 18:43 |
| Hash | I can't get it to work | 18:43 |
| Hash | I'm at the end of my tether | 18:43 |
| leftyfb | Hash: this sounds like a hardware issue. As in, the mic has a loose connection somewhere. | 18:43 |
| Hash | Yes intermittent, not stable. | 18:43 |
| TJ- | Hash: does it work after a cold (power off start) but fail after a warm reboot, or visa-versa? | 18:43 |
| TJ- | Hash: or, is it intermittent during a single session | 18:43 |
| kevr | unless there's any proof of anything else, i'd tend to agree with lefty. | 18:43 |
| Hash | I cannto afford to restart all the time | 18:44 |
| kevr | the solution is not "restart all the time." he is just attempting to see in which cases it happens. | 18:44 |
| Hash | I've no idea, it's just anytime I want to use my mic in ubuntu, Iv'e no idea if it will work or not. | 18:44 |
| kevr | he is attempting to eliminate issues and narrow it down. | 18:44 |
| Hash | IT just randomly picks up sound every now and again, else is fail | 18:44 |

| Hash | I rebootrd. Still no mic. | 18:51 |
| leftyfb | Hash: mind you, that wasn't my request. My initial though is a hardware issue. As in your mic has an issue. I would open up the sound settings, go to the "Input" tab and watch the Input level to determine if your mic is currently listening. Maybe generate some constant noise near the mic using a cellphone and then go and mess around with the wire to the mic, mainly where it plugs into the PC and see if it affects the input level | 18:52 |
| Hash | I just never see this pick up audio in pavucontrol | 18:52 |
| Hash | Line just constantl moves like it's static ony, I record, static only | 18:52 |

| leftyfb | unlikely | 19:03 |
| leftyfb | sarnold: feel free to copy and paste my suggestion | 19:03 |
| sarnold | rotate the cables around a bit, it's surprisingly common for audio cables to get internal breaks that fail intermittently | 19:03 |
| Hash | Wires are fine. I recorded yesterday. I rebooted. Now it no longer works | 19:03 |

| Hash | It works flawlessly under windows. | 19:04 |
| Hash | Not a USB mic, no drivers needed. Plugs into sound card directly | 19:04 |
| sarnold | leftyfb: oh sheesh. I see there's some history there. okay :) thanks | 19:04 |
| TJ- | Hash: I've seen this occur due to a PC's internal ACPI and the behaviour is different when doing a cold boot (full power off) and a warm boot (reboot without disconnecting power) | 19:04 |

| hggdh | folks, let's please stick to topic | 19:23 |
| ptah | for video games windows is better? | 19:23 |
| TJ- | Hash: as I said previously, we see a LOT of similar issues where things like this work in Windows but have problems in Linux, and often it is due to the PC's firmware ACPI. It is often effected by cold vs warm boot, or if the system has done suspend/resume cycles. There is a workaround that can sometimes help, with acpi_osi. See my article/tutorial at | 19:23 |
