isapgswelli am thinking in another concept i called: OFUSCATED SMOKE SCREEN (new security sysinfo paradigma)00:33
jjbuggleanyone know how to connect to a samsung tv?  It has wifi, and macs have a built in method called airplay.  But my google-fu is coming up short for ubuntu00:35
chibill[m]So anyone know why pulseaudio wouldn't see my soundcard while alsa does.00:35
jjbugglechibill[m]: you could try this to get more info: pulseaudio -k; pulseaudio -vvvvv00:37
jjbuggleat least that might work.  It might not if ubuntu auto-restarts pulsea00:37
chibill[m]Waiting on my stuff to load, launched the default DE to see if LXDE is somehow busted.00:39
chibill[m]Hm it sees the card but isn't making it available.00:51
isapgswellQubes OS is on the right path00:52
isapgswellmost isolated programs context is the right decision to QA(quality assurance) like stability, security, performance, privacy, symetric/assimetric processing and finnally scalability00:52
isapgswelli would like to add another security info concern, how to implement OFUSCATED SMOKE SCREEN in addition to a isolated vm's environment00:52
isapgswelllets think some about this new paradgima/techniqué00:52
chibill[m]At least it sees it if I run it as root, as a normal user even after killing pulseaudio with pulseaudio -k it says the daemon is running.00:52

isapgswellsarnold good idea00:56
isapgswellsarnold it is too difficult to think QUANTUM energy, performance and scalability without the QubesOS/PureOS and even Tails contribs01:01
isapgswellsarnold repeating: quantum security analisys, energy "offer", , performance and scallability01:05
isapgswellhail allan turing !!!01:05
chibill[m]After rebooting I found pulseaudio wasn't running, as my volume control could not connect to the daemon.  This is the log from trying to start the daemon. https://pastebin.com/TCMLPHMD01:18
jjbugglechibill[m]: maybe try some of the stuff here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1056153/pulseaudio-not-working-daemon-already-running-and-no-permission-for-home-folder01:20
chibill[m]Now its not seeing the USB sound card at all in Pulseaudio.01:35
chibill[m]If I launch it with sudo it can see it but no applications can use pulseaudio.01:36
kandinskiHow can I know whether lightdm is using x or wayland in the first place, and configure it to ensure it uses X?01:48
Bashing-omkandinski: ' ps -efly | grep Xorg' .01:51
kandinskiBashing-om: thanks! ok, so maybe I need to run barrier with --display :001:54
kandinskithere are a bunch of lightdm processes, and it's a bit confusing01:55
Bashing-omkandinski: Can not say - no xperience with barrier.01:55
kandinskiwell, the ps output pointed out that lightdm was using display :0, so...01:56

kandinskiright? /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg -core :0 -seat seat0 -auth /var/run/lightdm/root/:0 -nolisten tcp vt7 -novtswitch01:56
kandinskiin this case, barrier is launched as an accessibility optional keyboard by lightdm-gtk-greeter01:57
Bashing-omkandinski: ' echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE ' work for you ?01:57
kandinskican't do that while under lightdm01:57
kandinskithe user session is X, and that's fine01:57
kandinskiit's the dm/greeter that's giving me trouble, so I can log into the user session01:58
kandinskiBashing-om: does this make sense?01:58
kandinski(yes, $XDG_SESSION_TYPE is set and it works for me under my user, to answer your question)01:59
Bashing-omkandinski: Maybe ' lightdm --show-config ' will give a hint on which config file to edit ?02:10
kandinskiBashing-om: I think I have the correct one, there's a GUI even.02:11
kandinskiBashing-om: oh fudge. Snap-installed applications have sandboxed file acess permissions, so barrier from snap has issues creating files under /run02:38
kandinskiGROAN02:38
kandinski(letting you know in case you'd like to have a mental alert for this kind of issues, since you've been nice enough to help me, for which I'm grateful)02:39
Bashing-omkandinski: Not been of the help level that helps :( - but pleased you know what is not happening. And yep - that ^ is but one of the reasons why I avoid snaps on the desktop.02:41

RupertEvertonGood morning, I'm having issues with ecryptfs private directory: I have to manually run the "ecryptfs-mount-private" command a good few times before the folder is actually mounted. Is there a way to fix it?06:37
wezRupertEverton: Are you using Ubuntu Desktop and do you have auto login enabled?07:01
mgedminalso are you using a password or something else (fingerprint) to log in?07:02
RupertEvertonI'm using Ubuntu desktop and I do have auto login enabled. I dont need the private directory to automount or anything, I just need it to mount when I issue the command. But as of now, it just mounts whenever it wants after i issue the command a good few times07:03
mgedminwhat do the logs say?07:04
RupertEvertonwhere can i find them?07:04
wezRupertEverton: You probably need to unlock your keyring first, I had that issue before when enabling auto login.07:04
mgedminjournalctl07:04
RupertEvertonmgedmin I'll restart and try again fresh and see what the logs say07:07
wez👍07:08
RupertEvertonAlright this time it opened on the first try, could be that i removed the inegration with pam ?07:16
mgedmincan you describe what happened?  you reboot, the desktop autologins, you open a terminal, type ecryptfs-mount-private, it works?07:18
mgedminwere there any password prompts?07:18
RupertEvertonrebooted, autologged, opened the Private directory and ran the Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop script07:19
RupertEvertongot prompted for my login pass as usual07:19
RupertEvertontbf it was also slow at unmounting before, while now it worked instantly07:20
RupertEvertonso i think it was the integration with pam that was causing issues07:20
RupertEvertonjust to be clear, this is what im referring to: pam-auth-update --force07:20
mgedminhm, unlikely07:21
RupertEvertonshould i reboot and give it another try? this time i'll type the command directly in terminal07:21
RupertEvertonsee if anything changes07:22
mgedminno reason, it does Exec=/usr/bin/ecryptfs-mount-private07:22
mgedminwith Terminal=true07:23
RupertEvertonyeah i know07:23
RupertEvertonbut at least with a reboot we can see if it was a one time thing or not07:23
mgedminthe PAM configuration for ecryptfs-utils does two things: (1) automount the Private directory on login, if you use a password to log in07:24
mgedmin(2) re-wrap your encryption passphrase with the new password whenever you change your login password07:24
mgedminthere's no way PAM could cause a slow unmount07:25
RupertEvertonthe slow unmount was really the secondary issue tho, i was mostly concerned with the slow and inconsistent mount07:25
mgedminmaybe some applications were keeping files open inside ~/Private (tracker indexer?  but isn't Private excluded from desktop indexing by default)07:25
mgedminthe slow mount is more interesting, and it would be helpful to see what's going on in journalctl if you reproduce it07:26
RupertEvertonto reproduce it i need to reboot. after it's mounted the first time it's usually quite quick to remount07:27
mgedminnot that ecryptfs logs much, I see only one message on login07:28
mgedmin"gdm-password][3298]: pam_ecryptfs: Passphrase file wrapped"07:29
RupertEvertonyeah i was looking just at that07:29

RupertEvertonmgedmin I'll reboot a few more times with pam integration enabled and disabled -- brb07:35
=== EriC^ is now known as EriC^^
RupertEvertonmgedmin now this is weird, it worked every time with and without pam. The only difference shown in the logs is that when pam is enable i have the following three logs:07:52
RupertEvertonsystemd-modules-load[47x]: Module 'ecryptfs' is built in07:52

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1085706 in gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) "pam_ecryptfs: seteuid error" [Medium, Triaged]07:53
mgedminalso, lightdm?  gnome-screensaver?  what ubuntu version are you using?07:53
RupertEvertonubuntu budgie 21.0407:53
mgedminI'm also very surprised that unmounting needs the secret key07:54
mgedminyou can use `keyctl show` to see if you have any keys added to the the kernel keyring07:54
mgedminI see two user: keys here (as an ecryptfs user)07:55
mgedminAFAIU one's used to encrypt filenames, and the other one to encrypt file contents?07:55
mgedminlooked at /usr/bin/ecryptfs-mount-private (which is a bash script) a bit07:55
RupertEvertonyes i also have two keys07:55
mgedminthe way things work, it asks for your password, then uses that password to unwrap the encryption key and stuff it into the kernel keyring07:55
mgedminnothing should be randomly removing keys from the kernel keyring07:56
mgedminso I cannot explain the "umount.ecryptfs[6820]: Failed to find key with sig [***]: Required key not available"07:56
RupertEvertoni got two consecutive errors like that one with different key ids, so i'd imagine those were the two keys stored in the keyring07:57
mgedminit would be intresting to see what keyctl show shows when that error happens07:59
mgedminspeaking of ecryptfs, it's deperecated, and I wonder about alternatives08:06

sail0ri thought you could ssh into ubuntu by default when you first start up?09:04
tomreynas soon as an ssh server is installed, sure09:06
tomreyni don't think the desktop installer installs on by default09:07
toddcCorrect the desktop does not have ssh installed by default09:11
toddcI Just tested and it is not installed on ubuntu server 20.04 by default either09:13
tomreyni think ubuntu server lets you choose to install one on the last but one installation screen09:13
toddccorrect but not as default   how hard is sudo apt-get install openssh-server after install  otr the check box option either way09:15
sail0ri had the client but not the server so i could only ssh out.09:15
sail0ri installed openssh server and everything worked fine, but now i cant' ssh in anymore09:16
toddcmost of the VM templates have it installed for user but not root so even those you have to add a user before ssh into a box09:16
francissail0r: what error message are you getting if any?09:18
sail0raallllllso having wreleess kb problems.. ihink i remember having the same issue last time i installed ubuntu09:20
sail0rno response09:20
toddcRare for ssh to fail either way first test is to verify user and password and IP assuming local network on the server09:20
toddcI seem to mess up my notes all the time09:21
sail0ri installed xrdp and did one mod and thats all i can think that would cause an issue. but not sure why that would prevent ssh sessions from getting through09:21
toddccan you ping the server?09:22
sail0rwell i wasnt sure if you have to change a config on / for all users or if it just auto config the user account config09:23

sail0ri cant recall right now if i logged in using the ip the first time or the hostaname09:41
francisyou need to replace "local-ip" with you local ip address :)09:42
franciswhich you can find from "ip a s" or the network settingsconnections guis09:42
sail0rtoddc: i was wondering if it was the output sent to the .xsession command that might have changed some config or somethin09:42

sail0rwhere is that script reading the debug info from to get that reply?09:44
francisneither. take a look at https://itsfoss.com/check-ip-address-ubuntu/09:44
toddcno echo will just verifiy a output of the opertion in this case gnome09:44
francisonce you have you r local ip address (let's say 192.168.1.5), then you "ssh -vv 192.168.1.5"09:44
sail0rtoddc; thanks09:45
toddc as francis said hostname adds a few more issues work with a ip  static is preferred then deal with a hostname  second as that willl involve you router09:46
sail0ri had already done that, i just cant remember if i was trying to use the hostname or not. ill have to try in the morning. although it would be ideal to have it work for the hostname.09:46
sail0rwell i didn't expect that my device would get the same ip every tie anyway, and wouldn't the hostname be prefereble for that anyhow09:48
sail0r?09:48
sail0rdefault on raspbian and lmde seem to work with hostnames09:48
toddcyou router may not be updating hostname to ip  that thaks a while to update if any changes happed09:49
toddcso for testing ip does not need a router ---better till everything works and is stable09:50
sail0rhrrmm, i guess that makes sense. im passing out so ill try again later. thank for the help guys09:51
toddcip goes direct to the server vs host name gomes from the router and has to be updated on both machines to find each other09:51

mgedminI wouldn't touch APT::Default-Release, it'll cause pain on upgrades12:27
mgedminthe other bit, /etc/apt/preferences, is the thing I mentioned earlier12:28
bailsmanI want to install prometheus-node-exporter from Groovy so that I can use tls. But that is the only package I want to pull/update from groovy. I realize that this is 100% at my own risk and there is a decent chance cross release packages won't even work at all or malfunction in weird ways.12:28
mgedminhttps://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/impish/en/man5/apt_preferences.5.html12:28
mgedminfinding a ppa that backports the thing you want is better12:28
mgedminif there's no ppa you can try to create one and do the backport yourself12:28
mgedminall you need is pull-lp-source prometheus-node-exporter groovy; cd prometheus-node-exporter-*; dch -i and adjust the version number to be same as in groovy with a ~ubuntu20.04 suffix (assuming you're backporting to focal) and set the release to focal12:30
mgedminthen debuild -i -S, cd .., dput *.changes12:30
mgedminoh and you need to have a gpg key associated with your launchpad account and a ppa created in launchpad12:30
mgedminand I omitted the ppa:yourname/ppa argument from dput12:31
bailsmanThing is that I don't want to watch prometheus github, if there's a security issue or anything, I want it to auto update or at least flag that there's an update. If it breaks completely after the update, that's fine, maybe I'll rebuild it myself the.n12:31
mgedminwell, hmm12:31
Guest8240why ubuntu still doesn't fully encrypt the disk including /boot yet?12:31

bailsmanIt actually worked in Docker! Does that mean this ISNT a major footgun? Also: don't I need the default release, even though it messes with upgrades, just to make sure I don't accidentally upgrade another package?12:41
bailsmanIs there an apt preferences only method? I did the pinning for prometheus-node-exporter12:42
mgedminyou pin everything in groovy to some very low priority like -1, and then pin prometheus-node-exporter to something higher than the default pin (which is 500)12:43

magic_ninjaHow can I reload the v4l2 kernel module? For some reason my webcam locks up sometimes and I have to reboot. I want to see if just reloading the kernel module works14:18
tomreynmagic_ninja: is that an integrated webcam?14:21
magic_ninjatomreyn, no, it is a usb webcam.14:21
tomreynif not, just pull the usb cable and reconnect it, maybe to a different usb port.14:21
magic_ninjais there a way to reset a usb port via software?14:21
tomreynmost likely, but i dont know it14:22
ograbeyond this it is very likely the module it uses is "uvcvideo"14:22
magic_ninjafair enough. It actually isn't even showing up on usb.14:22
ograregarding powering usb ports off/on ... see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18765725/turning-off-a-single-usb-device-again14:23

magic_ninjaUnplugging and plugging back in works, but only sometimes.14:25

blAre there any issues with running Ubuntu and Xubuntu with the same /home directory?15:44
tomreynbl: i would *assume* not.15:45
tomreynunless it's two different kernels accessing it at the same time15:45
bloh, that's a good point.  i hadn't thought of it like that.  i was thinking for a single machine15:46
tomreynif you'll do multi-boot (booting only one at a time) or switch DEs during login then i assume it will be fine.15:47
tomreynbut.. that's theoretical15:48
blwhat are DEs?15:48
tomreyndesktop environments15:48

blwe'll it'll be an interesting experiment15:49
blyea15:49
tomreynjust don't expect it to be easily reversible15:49
ioriaand remember that by now (21.04) home is ecrypted by default15:50
bla situation where multiple kernels might access /home at the same time would be if the storage (ie. /home) is on network storage and multiple machines can access at once15:51
blor virtual machines?15:51
blioria: thanks, i didn't realize that was the case15:52
ioriabl if you ask me, it's just  not a good idea (can lead to conflicts,  i mean the programs settings in the hidden folders and such )15:53
blioria: sounds like this just isn't a use case considered by the Ubuntu/Xubuntu teams15:54
tomreynbl: a situation where multiple kernels might access /home at the same time would *not* be a problem is that home was e.g. an NFS export. it *woould* be a problem if those were e.g. virtual machines both accessing the same storage device directly.15:54
tomreynbl: most people will choose one desktop environment and keep using that.15:55
tomreynwhat's your use case?15:56
toddcWe have done mutible DE's at our installfest with no issues to show the differences . It works and we have had no issues but I might not call that stable or well tested15:59
ratraceHello. I want to install Ubuntu bit without a predefined desktop, and then build up a i3-wm based one, package by package.  Is it better I start from the desktop ISO, or is the server ISO fine too? I prefer building UP instead of removing packages.15:59
bltomreyn: oh, is that because NFS will serialize the IO?  also i guess my use case is just wanting to be able to use either distribution.  i have used Ubuntu for years and i like a lot of things about it but i think Xubuntu is supposed to be a bit lighter weight15:59
toddcratrace: desktop kernal build and change to the new DE and programs16:00
ioriabl  especially   if you use different versions of the two OSs (Xub 18.04 and Ubu 21.04); in this case, you'll have different versions of the same programs stroring its settings16:01
ratracetoddc: I don't understand what you're saying. I'm primarily asking if I can build up to a desktop of choice, starting with headless server ISO16:01
blioria: that's a good point, i was definitely planning on keeping the same version ie. 20.0416:02
tomreynbl: i don't actually know how exactly NFS or other network file systems ensure that concurrent writes are possible, but i'm sure you can read up on this online.16:03
Guest8240why it's wrong to set dns server in /etc/resolv.conf?16:03
toddcratrace: you can but the server kernal is not optimised for a desktop envoroment so it would be better to change A-B16:03
tomreyntoddc: it's actually the same kernel16:06
ratraceyeah I think it's the same linux-image-generic16:07
tomreynratrace: i think both approaches can work. the server installation will have less software installed, and some different defaults, whereas the desktop installation will have more software installed you may want to remove.16:07
tomreyna third approach would be debootstrap or the like16:07
ratracetomreyn: right. I want a very minimal setup for i3-wm and steam, nothing else.16:07
ratraceyeah debootstrap, I have setup scripts but for servers. hence me wanting to start with the server ISO16:08

quantumhave a strange issue. I unplugged my computer (Asus MB). then the system would not start up. had to reset the bios, then the system would boot, but hand during booting. so I booted to an older kernel and it works. Now I am trying to figure out why the newer kernel will not boot. running5.8.0-53-generic, but5.8.0-55-generic  will not boot. Not sure what is going on18:07
quantumI have tried update-grub and various things, but nothing seems to fix it.18:09
jeremy31quantum: what Ubuntu version?18:10
quantumNot sure what to try next. right now if I boot with recovery mode it hangs after saying ok to reached target local encrypted volumes18:10
quantum20.0418:10
quantumsince I can boot to the older kernel version if feels like something got corrupted with the newer one. I feel like it is something with the NVIDIA drivers, but am not sure18:12
jeremy31you could try reinstalling that kernel> sudo apt install --reinstall linux-generic-hwe-20.0418:12
quantumI tried switching the nvidia driver while booted in the  running5.8.0-53-generic, but don't know if that switched it for the other kernel. either way it didn't boot still18:13
jeremy31Are you using encryption?18:13
quantumdon't think so, but it seemed to say o.k. to that line18:13
quantum[o.k.] Reached target Local Encrypted Volume18:14
quantumthat will reinstall the 5.8.0-55-generic kernel?18:15
quantumis there a way to reinstall all the NVIDIA stuff too?18:16

quantumis there a way to --reinstall it though if it got corrupted or something18:22
jeremy31sudo dkms install nvidia/460.80 -k 5.8.0-55-generic18:23
quantumyes it is installed apparently for the 55 kernel, would this work 'sudo apt install --reinstall nvidia-driver-460' work?18:24
jeremy31It may attempt to reinstall18:25
quantumor should I try with dkms uninstall then reinstall18:25
jeremy31quantum: I don't think you want to uninstall18:26
quantumwell, if I do the reinstall it my screw up my currently running kernel so that doesn't seem like a good choice, unless I downgrade the driver then do an install and a reinstall after booting to the older version I guess18:27
quantumI mean if I do  a reinstall it may screw up my currently running system18:27
quantumwell, let me try a reboot as is since I did the kernel reinstall and see what happens. I will hopefully be back18:28
jeremy31quantum: it will just tell you already installed on that kernel, just tried with a different dkms driver18:28
quantumyes dkms says it is sintalled for both kernels18:28
jeremy31the kernel reinstall may have triggered dkms to build new18:28
quantumok, be back after a reboot hopefully18:29
