[00:38] <kimse> Does anyone here have experience with seamlessly mounting SMB shares using ntlmssp on recent Ubuntu Desktop ?
[00:41] <kimse> I wish to have a common mount point for all users logged in (Like when mapping network drives on Windows) (multiuser?)), but I can only get pam_cifscreds to store credentials when logging in using SSH not via when logging via the desktop.
[00:43] <oerheks> i think you want NTLMv2 .. https://superuser.com/questions/1377726/windows-7-ntlm-not-authenticating-properly-with-ubuntu-18-04
[00:49] <kimse> orkid: thx for your reply, but I don't think that link is relevant here. Also ntlmssp is NTLMv2. I have no problem mouting with sec=ntlmssp and manually providing my credentials.
[00:54] <user_> how can i mount a FAT32 usb stick *not* read only ?
[00:56] <SysGhost> from the command line, you can use udisksctl mount -b /dev/yourusbdrive
[00:57] <SysGhost> but if it mounts read only by default, there's a reason for it. Usually a damaged file system
[00:57] <retro-64K> and i found a topic here on the askubuntu about it: https://askubuntu.com/questions/251206/mount-usb-drive-with-write-permissions-for-everyone-or-specific-user
[00:57] <retro-64K> yeah, that thing happened to me once.
[00:58] <retro-64K> with an old floppy disk lol
[00:59] <retro-64K> i have 2 floppy disks stored on a tiny box on one of my drawers.
[00:59] <retro-64K> i'm thinking abut making a floppy disk collection, though.
[01:27] <bundtcake> I'm trying to run a few commands are boot and I'm not sure how. On most systems there is an /etc/rc.local but I'm reading that it has to be enabled, but its giving me a lot of lip service here.
[01:27] <bundtcake> at boot*
[01:28] <bundtcake> Perhaps I will just let Cron handle this.
[01:34] <jpmh> bundtcake: @reboot in the crontab file is a simple and easy way to go
[01:35] <jpmh> how do I list zombie processes at the command line?
[01:37] <Bashing-om> jpmh: - ps aux | grep 'Z' - >> - pstree -p -s <PID> -.
[01:44] <jpmh> Bashing-om: I have "top" telling me that there is 1 zombie . I had already tried 'ps aux|grep -i defunct' and also 'ps -aux |grep Z' and neither show anything other than my actual grepcommand
[01:44] <bundtcake> jpmh: pmisc package has killall command if you need it. (at least I think with this distro)
[01:45] <webchat21> tomreyn, I have plenty of free diskspace, just not in /boot.  The Update I am trying to run needs 141M in /boot to run,  I only have 134M available.  So I cleaned up old images using sudo apt autoremove --purge per Ubuntu KB.  I am still stuck at 134M of freespace in /boot and this security update will not run.
[01:45] <jpmh> bundtcake: r u suggesting that for my zombie?  If so, the issue I really have is I want to know what process I have that is leaving the zombie. I am generally VERY careful to avoid creating them
[01:48] <Bashing-om> jpmh: Sorry - if ps does not see it, I do not know what else to advise :(
[01:49] <jpmh> and since ps aux has been suggested - can someone remind me WHY am I doinf aux - the man page does nottell me and I guess itis just muscle memory after 30 years of *nix that causes me to do it
[01:49] <jpmh> Bashing-om: ty - yep - it is weird
[01:49] <SysGhost> try " ps -elf | grep Z " instead
[01:49] <SysGhost> aux might not list the stat field
[01:50] <jpmh> SysGhost: the header for the aux does show a stat and I do see the stat I expect for all ptocesses listed
[01:50] <SysGhost> okay
[01:51] <SysGhost> I just have my lszombies alias set to that
[01:51] <jpmh> SysGhost: I hope I never get to a point where zombies are common enough that I need that, :)
[01:53] <jpmh> so, can someone remind me what the aux swicth, without the - (minus) is doing
[01:53] <bundtcake> jpmh man ps
[01:53] <jpmh> the manage tells me that -aux and aux are not the same
[01:54] <jpmh> bundtcake: I did look at man and as I say, it warns me that they are not the samebut does not otherwise mention ps aux
[01:54] <bundtcake> jpmh: it looks like a formality that other shells would not interpret equally.
[01:55] <jpmh> bundtcake: but what does it actually do.  I have been typing it for so long that that is what I do, but I don't rememmber why and man does not help me
[01:56] <bundtcake> jpmh: it does option a, u, and x on the ps command
[01:56] <jpmh> bundtcake: and remember it specifically says that aux and -aux are different
[01:57] <bundtcake> jpmh: says it has to do with bsd syntax down in the examples.
[01:58] <bundtcake> jpmh: the thing about bsd is that its very precise with standards compliance what with originating in a lab and all.
[01:58] <jpmh> bundtcake: so r u saying that they DO operate the same and they are just elling me in the man page that I should be doing the -ux method?
[01:59] <bundtcake> jpmh: its basically PRNDL or manual far as I can tell.
[02:02] <bundtcake> jpmh: like on my system I use several shells, dash, bash, zsh, and if you want things to run smoothly you adopt a formal approach to things.
[02:25] <tri> hello
[02:25] <toddc> welcome tri
[02:35] <jpmh> for  those who attempted to help me with the zombie issue.  TY so much.  I have resolved it.  The problem is/was xscreensaver is creating zombies and then reaping them.  So, they are there when I do top and gne by the time I do the ps
[02:41] <Bashing-om> jpmh: \o/ - Good that you come back and tell :D
[02:43] <jpmh> Bashing-om: well, just in case anyone ver looks through the archives. Now I need to look at the xscreensaver and find why it is not reapng it's children a little  quicker. Mainly though I am relieved that it is not my code that is bad
[03:04] <r3muxd> hello, i'm trying to figure out why including algorithm on clang with C++20 gives me an extremely weird error ( https://pastebin.com/94YKPVfj ) on 21.10 and i have no idea where to start
[03:04] <r3muxd> my bad, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/DWyQ82P6XW/
[03:06] <r3muxd> i'm pretty sure it's a bug but i'm not sure if i should file it against clang or libstdc++-10-dev
[05:43] <NuclearMonster> hi, I installed ubuntu server for raspberry pi 64bit on my raspberry pi 4 4GB a few hours ago, and despite waiting and using a keyboard or ssh I cannot log in
[05:43] <NuclearMonster> this is with ubuntu server 21.04
[05:43] <NuclearMonster> I'm using username: ubuntu and password is also ubuntu as per everything I've read
[05:53] <NuclearMonster> gonna try reformatting the microsd
[05:56] <toddc> NuclearMonster: I did a Pasbian lite a few days ago and had the same issue Stalled while resizing sdcard so I rewote the card and then used gparted to resize the second partition to the full size of the SD then I booted and worked fine
[05:56] <toddc> Raspbian lite
[05:57] <NuclearMonster> there's t his warning about cloud-init on this page https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-your-raspberry-pi#4-boot-ubuntu-server
[05:57] <NuclearMonster> lucky it's there or I wouldn't have known about that variable someone threw into the works
[05:59] <NuclearMonster> toddc: huh, I'll have to check out resizing the partition, maybe it's the imager that is broken
[05:59] <Dude42> how do i send a file
[05:59] <NuclearMonster> like a paste or share a file with another person\
[05:59] <NuclearMonster> locally or remote
[05:59] <Dude42> share a file with another person
[06:00] <Dude42> on here
[06:00] <NuclearMonster> I like https://wetransfer.com
[06:00] <NuclearMonster> well "like"
[06:00] <NuclearMonster> it is a functional web app
[06:00] <Dude42> i see a button on here that says send file
[06:01] <NuclearMonster> are you using a web irc client or something
[06:01] <Bashing-om> !paste | Dude42 2-
[06:01] <Dude42> im using xchat
[06:01] <NuclearMonster> xchat will probably just use the old dcc protocol
[06:01] <toddc> I have not used that I usually use https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/
[06:02] <NuclearMonster> which most other irc users can't use
[06:02] <Dude42> great
[06:02] <NuclearMonster> use one of the services linked above
[06:02] <NuclearMonster> if you want to keep the file somehwat private, use dropbox or something
[06:04] <Dude42> no ones using xchat in here
[06:04] <NuclearMonster> do you just want to send a file to a random person
[06:04] <Dude42> maybe a pic file to a person
[06:04] <NuclearMonster> yeah if you want to send bad things to people you'll probably get banned
[06:05] <Dude42> no not a bad pic
[06:05] <NuclearMonster> and dcc won't work because nobody has anything set up to use it in 2021
[06:05] <NuclearMonster> doesn't matter that it's xchat
[06:06] <NuclearMonster> wow I reformated and this time I could log in
[06:06] <NuclearMonster> thanks cloud init
[06:08] <toddc> NuclearMonster: as long as It works who cares how you got there!!
[06:09] <NuclearMonster> :)
[06:32] <IvoCavalcante> hi people, general package maint question:
[06:33] <IvoCavalcante> is there an easy way to list all installed packages and their respective sources (main, universe, restricted or multiverse) ?
[06:33] <IvoCavalcante> this doesn't get stored on dpkg db, AFAIK
[08:54] <kubast2> Hey, how can I use the remote desktop feature of ubuntu, but still keep it encrypted, and connect with it from a windows machine
[08:55] <kubast2> the one included in gnome isn't compatibile with: tightvnc, ultravnc, vncviewer; does it work with anything but tigervnc?
[08:55] <kubast2> which is a linux only software which I would have to port on their desktop to windows or something
[08:56] <lotuspsychje> kubast2: a lot of users use remmina now for remote desktop
[08:56] <kubast2> there's a remote desktop feature/screen sharing feature that uses tls+password+vnc apparently; huh
[08:56] <kubast2> isn't remmina rdp only?
[08:56] <kubast2> I did use freexrdp because I had some issues back in 2018 with it in my uni, but other than that I think it got better
[08:57] <lotuspsychje> kubast2: be careful with vnc products these days its a potential security risk to use, the protocol/ports gets hammered bad
[08:57] <kubast2> oh supports even spice I see
[08:57] <kubast2> lotuspsychje I don't share my computer to a wider network, but yeah there's no saying what other apps do
[08:57] <lotuspsychje> kubast2: another popular way, is ssh, ssh X or tunnel vnc with ssh
[08:57] <lotuspsychje> !vnc
[08:58] <kubast2> yeah I am over wifi need to connect locally, I left the power hungry computer upstairs in my office and sit downstairs otherwise
[08:58] <lotuspsychje> kubast2: remote support for short jobs, you could try teamviewer, but not reccomended to leave on 24/7 neither
[08:59] <sixwheeledbeast> I recall using remmina with vnc over ssh
[09:00] <kubast2> I did try X2GO once but it wasn't viable for local networks
[09:00] <kubast2> I don't remember how badly/well vnc worked really
[09:02] <kubast2> I might setup livestreaming over https via ssh, and then setup kde connect to get remote control, but then I need to find a way to remote control over a desktop
[09:02] <kubast2> hmmm
[09:02] <kubast2> because kde connect works from phones control
[09:02] <kubast2> and it is low enough latency for mouse+keyboard access
[09:03] <kubast2> I would guess x264/vp9 compression and decompression should work well
[09:04] <kubast2> fuck it there's no way, and using teamviwer to roundrtip to teamviewer servers is too insane
[09:30] <EriC^^> !ping
[10:00] <Guest888> I am troubleshooting something here, and I hope someone here can help me. I have a PC without any OS installed. It has 3 disks in it, and I have a reason to believe that GRUB 2 is installed on one of the disks where there should be none because it's only used for storage.
[10:01] <Guest888> I would like to inspect that disk to see if GRUB 2 does exist on it, and if so have it removed without destroying the user data on there. What kind of tools would I need for this? Can it be done from a Ubuntu Live USB?
[10:03] <Guest888> I used to have both Ubuntu and Windows on this PC at one point. Then at some point, something went wrong and I ended up with one or two GRUB instances, one of which is in a completely wrong place (wrong disk).
[10:14] <sixwheeledbeast> Stuff like this you would use a live image yes
[10:27] <Guest888> OK. Is it possible to remove GRUB from the wrong disk without affecting my files on it?
[10:28] <Guest888> I will not need it for booting anything since I don't have any OS at the moment. I just want to remove it so I have a clean slate then I will do a fresh installation.
[11:21] <Guest35> Hi there
[11:21] <Guest35> Let's see if anyone can help me
[11:22] <Guest35> Whenever I try sudo apt update I get this: Err:9 https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org focal InReleaseTemporary failure resolving 'deb.torproject.org'
[11:33] <src> Guest35: the first thing would probably be to see your /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:34] <Guest35> deb [arch=amd64] https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org focal main
[11:34] <Guest35> This was the only line existing
[11:34] <Guest35> Then I tried this: https://support.torproject.org/apt/tor-deb-repo/
[11:35] <Guest35> But I'm unable to save the file (no root privileges idk why)
[11:38] <Guest35> I would have reinstalled Ubuntu, but the prob is that I did it several times 10 days ago and the problem with Tor was appearing on and on
[11:38] <Guest35> even in different laptops, my Ubuntu 20 couldnt even access torproject.org
[11:39] <Guest35> Last week someone helped me solve that prob in Github but something seems to be missing
[11:39] <src> you can't run apt update as far as I know without root
[11:40] <tango_uniform_xr> Guest35 have you tried changing dns servers? it sounds like an issue with resolving deb.torproject.org
[11:40] <Guest35> yes I do sudo apt update with the above result
[11:40] <src> Guest35: if you do $ sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:40] <src> or whatever your editor, you will be able to save changes
[11:40] <Guest35> tango uniform I changed them in wifi settings, then I went back to auto
[11:41] <Guest35> sudo: vim: command not found
[11:41] <tango_uniform_xr> use nano if you haven't learned vim
[11:42] <Guest35> ok it gave a lot of info
[11:42] <tango_uniform_xr> oh, have you tried visiting https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/ in the browser?
[11:45] <tango_uniform_xr> apt is complaining about network, so we can try to figure out if it's an apt problem or a network problem
[11:46] <Guest35> ok how?
[11:46] <tango_uniform_xr> visit the said URL in your web browser
[11:46] <Guest35> How do I check it?
[11:46] <Guest35> done
[11:46] <tango_uniform_xr> did it work?
[11:46] <Guest35> yes
[11:46] <Guest35> I reach that site
[11:47] <ogra> try: ping deb.torproject.org
[11:47] <ogra> does that get replies ?
[11:48] <Guest35> This one: ping: deb.torproject.org: Temporary failure in name resolution
[11:48] <ogra> aha
[11:48] <ogra> so your network serup is messed up on the cmdline
[11:48] <ogra> do you use a proxy server for your browser ?
[11:48] <tango_uniform_xr> maybe the web browser is using DNS over https
[11:48] <tango_uniform_xr> since some are doing that by default now
[11:48] <ogra> ah, or that newfangled thing, yeah 🙂
[11:48] <Guest35> I dont use a router but my hotspot phone
[11:49] <tango_uniform_xr> i'm using adguard dns 94.140.14.14 and it's resolving fine for me
[11:49] <Guest35> Tango: last week everybody suggested me to set up DNS over HTTPS
[11:50] <tango_uniform_xr> you mean for system or browser?
[11:50] <Guest35> browser
[11:50] <tango_uniform_xr> in the newer firefoxes, i think it's set by default now
[11:50] <tango_uniform_xr> not sure about chromiums
[11:51] <ogra> either way, you will need a proper DNS setup for the system
[11:51] <Guest35> I do use Firefox n Tor
[11:51] <Guest35> Ogra, how do I change it?
[11:52] <tango_uniform_xr> what dns resolver is the default in ubuntu? i use systemd-resolved
[11:52] <ogra> no idea how you changed it in the first place ... normally your hotspot should have provided you the settings automatically
[11:52] <ogra> ubuntu does too ...
[11:52] <ogra> and then it depends ... CLI installs use netplan to set it up, desktop installs network-manager
[11:55] <Guest35> Well it seems I have the right one according to this site: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1244860/dns-issues-after-upgrading-to-20-04
[11:55] <Guest35> nameserver 127.0.0.53
[11:55] <tango_uniform_xr> sounds like resolved
[11:56] <Guest35> $ ping -c 2 127.0.0.53
[11:56] <Guest35> PING 127.0.0.53 (127.0.0.53) 56(84) bytes of data.

[11:56] <Guest35> 2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1030ms
[11:57] <tango_uniform_xr> you can change the config through /etc/systemd/resolved.conf, though i have problems with network manager overriding if i don't explicitly set "don't obtain dns info" for every single individual connection profile
[11:57] <ogra> well, you should better use network-manager to not end up with a non-default config
[11:58] <ogra> else people supporting you in the furture will have a hard time
[11:59] <tango_uniform_xr> i'm still using network manager, i just have to tell it to behave
[11:59] <ogra> Guest35, and 127.0.0.X address just points to yourself ... indeed you can ping your own PC from your own PC
[12:00] <ogra> Cueball, more interesting is where the dns on your local PC points to that you contact through 127.0.0.53 ...
[12:00] <ogra> Guest35, try: resolvectl status | grep "Current DNS"
[12:00] <ogra> oops, sorry Cueball, that wasn't addressed to you
[12:00] <Guest35> resolvectl status | grep "Current DNS"
[12:00] <Guest35>   Current DNS Server: 192.168.43.113
[12:01] <ogra> so that points to some device on your LAN
[12:01] <ogra> can you check on your phone if that is the IP of your hotspot ?
[12:01] <Guest35> Idk, it is the same number I got in my WIFI settings info
[12:01] <tango_uniform_xr> oh, does *any* address resolve? `dig duckduckgo.com`
[12:01] <pra81> hello to all
[12:02] <pra81> after changing my ssh port i cannot access ssh using ubuntu on my vps
[12:03] <tango_uniform_xr> Guest35 after looking through what we've discussed, it looks like we haven't determined if your system DNS is working at all, so try that
[12:03] <Guest35> The IP address on my phone is 192.168.43.99
[12:08] <Guest35> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/pkypF623kq/
[12:09] <Guest35> after dig duckduckgo.com
[12:09] <tango_uniform_xr> looks like dns is working
[12:10] <tango_uniform_xr> can you show me `resolvectl`?
[12:11] <Guest35> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/VdHSTvDCgc/
[12:16] <tango_uniform_xr> Guest35 have you tried changing the dns server setting to a different one?
[12:17] <tango_uniform_xr> through network manager, you can try changing it to 94.140.14.14, that's what i'm using and it resolves, maybe it'll work for you
[12:17] <Guest35> I tried last week using something I found on forums: 127.0.0.1; but It was even worse as Ubnuntu soppet uptades
[12:17] <Guest35> *stopped
[12:18] <Guest35> (I only changed it in WIFI settings)
[12:18] <tango_uniform_xr> that's just localhost and not at the local resolver, so that will break it, try the one i said
[12:20] <Guest35> Im reading lots of issues with Network Manager in Ubuntu Software
[12:20] <Guest35> But I cna try
[12:20] <Guest35> *can
[12:21] <Guest35> It does not launch
[12:22] <VMGuy234> Does it show an error? Do you get a notification?
[12:23] <ledeni[m]> Guest35: use google ones  8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
[12:24] <Guest35> Should I set DNS settings to Manual and enter those numbers?
[12:24] <ledeni[m]> Guest35: yes
[12:25] <Guest35> ok
[12:26] <ledeni[m]> Guest35: like '8.8.8.8 ; 8.8.4.4'
[12:26] <Guest35> done
[12:26] <ledeni[m]> ok
[12:27] <Guest35> same error: Err:16 https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org focal InRelease
[12:27] <Guest35>   Temporary failure resolving 'deb.torproject.org'
[12:28] <ledeni[m]>  Guest35 do you use tor settings for your browser
[12:29] <Guest35> Idk what you mean
[12:29] <tango_uniform_xr> this is an apt error ledeni
[12:29] <Guest35> so nothing to do with DNS?
[12:29] <tango_uniform_xr> sorry, that's not what i mean
[12:30] <Guest35> If a reinstall could solve the issue, I'd rather do it instead of wasting your time
[12:30] <tango_uniform_xr> i meant they're having an apt issue not a browser issue, we already figure out that browser can resolve the address so it must be using DNS over HTTPS or something
[12:30] <tango_uniform_xr> this is the support channel, there's no rules against using support channel for support :)
[12:30] <Guest35> My TorBrowser works, my Firefox too
[12:36] <Guest35> How do I create an account in here?
[12:37] <ogra> Guest35, https://libera.chat/guides/registration
[12:38] <Guest35> thx I bet Imma disturb you  lot xD
[12:38] <ledeni[m]> Guest35: one question did you ever have apt update working?
[12:38] <Guest35> It works fine unless for the de.torproject.org stuff
[12:39] <Guest35> *deb
[12:54] <ledeni[m]> Guest35:   can you give cat /etc/apt/sources.list | nc termbin.com 9999
[13:01] <Fosko> It gives back: https://termbin.com/ilmr
[13:04] <ledeni[m]> Fosko: you are Guest35  ?
[13:07] <Fosko> yes
[13:09] <ledeni[m]> Fosko:  ok you need  add ' https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org focal InRelease' to sources.list
[13:11] <Fosko> Its what Im trying to do, but when I add this line to the tor file it says that I have no permission to save that file
[13:11] <Fosko> Any way to do it from terminal?
[13:16] <Fosko> I already had this line in my sources list : deb [arch=amd64] https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org focal main

[13:30] <VaniaPy> and i'm getting bash curl command not found
[13:31] <VaniaPy> how can i install it inside  vagrant?
[13:47] <Guest888> What software can I use to locate the disk where GRUB is installed? I don't have any OS installed now, but I have reason to believe that there is some old GRUB bootloader left over on one or more disk.
[13:48] <Guest888> I don't want to repair anything, I just want to get the location of GRUB if it's hiding somewhere, have it removed so I can get a clean slate and then go on with a new OS installation.
[13:50] <BluesKaj> check your disk(s) partitions for uEFI boot
[13:57] <Guest888> How do I do that?
[13:57] <sixwheeledbeast> gparted with a live image
[13:58] <BluesKaj> !gparted | Guest888
[14:05] <Guest888> Ok Gparted is running on Ubuntu live system. How will it look like if GRUB is present on one of the disks? Am I looking for the "/boot/efi" in Partition column?
[14:14] <TJ-> Guest888: here's a partially tested shell fragment to do it: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/dMVF8MjfxH/
[14:15] <p0indexter> gparted should be showing mount point on partitions
[14:17] <JayDoubleu> I have a AX200 intel wifi card. I'm trying to get it working with 5ghz in AP mode but no luck. Shows no IR when I run iw list. I managed to get it working once on a single channel when reinstalled network manager but no lock since. Any ideas?
[14:19] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: what tool are you using to create the AP?
[14:20] <JayDoubleu> hostapd
[14:21] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: has NM tried to manage that interface or did you disable it from touching the AP interface?
[14:21] <JayDoubleu> tried using also nmcli and forcing band=a but this didnt work either
[14:21] <Guest888> is it possible to add a ppa on ubuntu live ?
[14:21] <Guest888> https://vitux.com/how-to-install-grub-customizer-on-ubuntu/
[14:22] <JayDoubleu> first I uninstalled the nm entirely and that didnt work, then I installed nm and it unlocked few channels so it worked on hostapd but after reboot all channels are in No-IR
[14:22] <Guest888> I tried to install Grub Customizer.
[14:22] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: that's because you've not set the region / country
[14:22] <jeremy31> JayDoubleu: does this command show correct country code>  iw reg get
[14:22] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: what does "iw reg get" report?
[14:24] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: I'd guess NM initially helped because it obtained the region code from an AP it connected to as a client and set that in the kernel, which then allowed the device to Initiate Radiation (IR) on the channel set in hostpad (unless you've hostpad configured to do ACS (Automatic Channel Selection - channel=0)
[14:25] <JayDoubleu> well now I am on a fresh ubuntu install with network manager enabled. It shows the correct country code
[14:25] <JayDoubleu> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/yh0oadmf/
[14:25] <JayDoubleu> I can also see few frequencies available for 5ghz
[14:25] <JayDoubleu> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/YShFZZO0/
[14:26] <JayDoubleu> now how do I make it work with hostapd.. Or is there something better for wifi hotspot in bridge mode that would work with nm
[14:28] <JayDoubleu> when I'm trying to make hotspot with band A it returns below
[14:28] <JayDoubleu> nmcli device wifi hotspot ifname wls16 ssid "test-ap123" password "123456789" band a
[14:28] <JayDoubleu> Error: Connection activation failed: (11) 802.1X supplicant took too long to authenticate.
[14:33] <weq> What sort of autentication method does you network utilize for 802.1x ?
[14:34] <JayDoubleu> no clue, its a fresh ubuntu install
[14:34] <weq> This is something the network supplies. Not the OS.
[14:34] <JayDoubleu> I am trying to create network, not connect to existin gone
[14:34] <JayDoubleu> one*
[14:35] <weq> Why are you using 802.1x then?
[14:35] <weq> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.1X
[14:35] <JayDoubleu> Im not using anything, it throws that by default when running `nmcli device wifi hotspot ifname wls16 ssid "test-ap123" password "123456789" band a`
[14:36] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: check the log "journalctl -u NetworkManager -n 50" for last 50 messages
[14:37] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: if hostapd service is also active it'll conflict with NM's wpa_supplicant
[14:37] <JayDoubleu> at this point now I dont even have hostapd installed.
[14:38] <JayDoubleu> This was my attempt to make wifi hotspot with 5gh using network manager
[14:39] <TJ-> OK, I thought so, but wasn't sure
[14:41] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: will it work with "band g" ?
[14:41] <JayDoubleu> band g works fine :|
[14:42] <JayDoubleu> it just seems to have issue with 5ghz :/
[14:43] <TJ-> OK, so that suggests the same issues hostapd had - not able to initiate radiation unless it has the correct regulatory code set
[14:44] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: have you done/tried "iw reg set GB" first?
[14:50] <JayDoubleu> I have, yes
[14:50] <JayDoubleu> how on earth it managed to change to DE now ?
[14:50] <JayDoubleu> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/xKhKKKK4/
[15:02] <PeGaSuS> so, my laptop just fall off the table and requested a manual fsck. how likely is that the drive is unrecoverable, since fsck is running for 780s already?
[15:03] <PeGaSuS> s/unrecoverable/irrecoverable/
[15:05] <oerheks> we deal with facts, so 50%/50% ?
[15:07] <TJ-> JayDoubleu: some devices have firmware pre-programmed with a region but I'd think you'd have seen that alreadu if it were the case
[15:07] <PeGaSuS> https://i.imgur.com/qFflyl8.jpeg >> one of the many many errors
[15:11] <PeGaSuS> apparently after a `fsck /dev/sda5 -y` and a long wait time it is starting to boot, but seems stuck at the boot screen
[15:12] <oerheks> PeGaSuS, did you use a live iso for fsck?
[15:12] <JayDoubleu> hmm iw reg reload seems to be doing ok with reseting it back to GB
[15:12] <PeGaSuS> erm, no? *dies*
[15:12] <oerheks> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilesystemTroubleshooting
[15:13] <PeGaSuS> I don't even remember where I put the damn usb stick
[15:13] <PeGaSuS> to try to boot from a live ISO
[15:19] <PeGaSuS>  this is just amazing. the only USB that I have has Ubuntu server instead a desktop release...
[15:23] <PeGaSuS> I have an external drive with Linux Mint (Ubuntu based) installed. is it possible to run `fsck` from there?
[15:23] <jhutchins> PeGaSuS: How big is the drive?
[15:24] <jhutchins> PeGaSuS: If it's ext4 it should be fine.
[15:25] <PeGaSuS> the internal HDD is around 750Gb. the external drive is partitioned with around 300Gb for Linux Mint and the rest (700Gb) as NTFS
[15:30] <PeGaSuS> I assume this is a good thing: https://pastebin.groundzero.icu/view/raw/f91c7e60 ?
[15:31] <PeGaSuS> or probablly not: https://pastebin.groundzero.icu/view/raw/9e1d99a8
[15:33] <PeGaSuS> after a "fsck.ext4 /dev/sda5 -f -y": https://pastebin.groundzero.icu/view/raw/dde71882
[15:33] <PeGaSuS> brb, rebooting
[15:40] <PeGaSuS> https://i.imgur.com/Svgdr5X.jpeg >> I'm stuck. I guess that the drive is irrecoverable
[15:47] <PeGaSuS> huh. I'm kinda astonished now. Ubuntu is full of errors. however, Windows (this is a dual boot device) does work
[15:51] <PeGaSuS> I guess I spoke too soon though. even Windows seem to have some issues, since I was unable to even login
[15:53] <JayDoubleu> I got rid of netplan, configured etc/network/interfaces but on reboot the bridge is missing and it's not being created automatically, what am I missing?
[15:53] <JayDoubleu> it reads the network/interfaces correctly, its just not creating the bridge nor adding ports to it
[16:08] <VANT_> Helo ! How do I set up my Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with 3D effects and with gelatin windows and mouse effects?
[16:11] <quantum> before I upgrade to 20.04.1-Ubuntu I had a usb video camera that worked, now I am not seeing a dev/video0 device. is there any way to fix this?
[16:15] <shadow255> quantum: can you paste the output of lsusb?

[16:17] <shadow255> quantum: I meant for you to paste as the topic prescribes
[16:18] <quantum> shadow255, yes, I meant to past the link to pastbin
[16:18] <quantum> sorry
[16:18] <shadow255> quantum: so is the webcam a Logitech device?
[16:19] <quantum> no, it is something else. it worked before I upgraded though so I think it is a standard video device
[16:19] <quantum> I used to be able to see the video with: mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=1920:height=1080:device=/dev/video0:fps=60:outfmt=yuy2 -vf screenshot
[16:20] <shadow255> quantum: your computer is not listing it the way it should, as far as I can see
[16:21] <quantum> I agree I don't see the usb device listed
[16:21] <quantum> so, does that mean there is some type of usb driver I am missing?
[16:22] <shadow255> quantum: try unplugging it, then reconnect and watch for any messages from dmesg after reconnecting
[16:23] <shadow255> quantum: we'll see if dmesg gives any clues about device detection
[16:24] <quantum> weird, moved to a different usb port and pluged and unplugged a few times, seem to be working now
[16:24] <quantum> I think it din't like the port on my monitor or something
[16:24] <shadow255> quantum: what does lsusb show now?
[16:24] <shadow255> hmm, that's a possibility to be explored later :)
[16:25] <quantum> Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0603:8612 Novatek Microelectronics Corp. J1455
[16:25] <shadow255> good to see it working again, you might have something going on with the usb connection from computer to monitor
[16:26] <quantum> going to plug it back in there and see what happens
[16:28] <quantum> seems to work, the device has two modes when it powers up. mass storage and video. I tried mass storage. then power cycled and tried video then it worked. works with the monitor also now
[16:28] <quantum> very strange
[16:30] <jeremy31> The mass storage likely has Windows drivers on it
[16:37] <quantum> maybe, it can store video on it that you can download I guess. Thanks for the help. Hopefully it will keep working.
[16:48] <VMGuy234> I just installed refind boot manager, theres 2 <null string>s and one (square)0
[16:49] <VMGuy234> (square)0 worked
[18:19] <Sven_vB> hi! one of my focal machines is running into dbus max_connections_per_user. how can I check which program is keeping how many connections open?
[18:21] <Sven_vB> also is there a way to increase the limit in the affected user session, i.e. without ending the session?
[18:21] <oerheks> kill your browser and check again?
[18:22] <Sven_vB> no browser is running
[18:24] <oerheks> oh, there is dbus-monitor to check those
[18:24] <oerheks> !info  dbus-monitor  focal
[18:25] <oerheks> part of dbus-tests i guess
[18:26] <Sven_vB> thanks!
[18:28] <Sven_vB> dbus-monitor reports the messages sent via dbus, but I cannot find how to check which programs use up the connection limit
[18:31] <Sven_vB> seems like stopping murmurd frees enough connections to make bluetooth work again, but that's most probably not the real solution.
[18:32] <oerheks> htop -u $USER # shows all processes
[18:35] <TJ-> Sven_vB: " dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus /org/freedesktop/DBus org.freedesktop.DBus.ListNames "
[18:38] <Sven_vB> TJ-, thanks, will try!
[18:40] <GSMarquis> So the next Ubuntu release will have gnome 4?
[18:40] <oerheks> GSMarquis, where do you read that?
[18:41] <Sven_vB> TJ-, the user of the affected session only gets "The maximum number of active connections for UID … has been reached". when I sudo, I get an array of strings. some of them have readable names, but most are just string ":1.82". is the 2nd number the process ID?
[18:41] <GSMarquis> Sorry, I was asking not telling.
[18:43] <Sven_vB> nope, looks like most of those numbers from the dbus connection names are not process IDs.
[18:43] <lotuspsychje> GSMarquis: new ubuntu releases always have new suprises, we usualy wait until final release
[18:43] <oerheks> some wild stories about impish will get 4.1 ... release plan for 41 https://wiki.gnome.org/FortyOne , first alpha is scheduled for July 10 and beta for August 14. i guess it is a too small window
[18:44] <oerheks> https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/impish-indri-release-schedule/18540
[19:09] <PeGaSuS> using my external HDD which already had Xubuntu installed on it, ran "apt update" w/o any errors, and when ran "apt dist-upgrade" i ran into https://pastebin.groundzero.icu/view/511c2143

[19:24] <TJ-> Sven_vB: this seems to work to identify the biggest user.
[19:24] <TJ-> Sven_vB: while read s t; do dbus-send --system --print-reply=literal --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus /org/freedesktop/DBus org.freedesktop.DBus.GetConnectionUnixProcessID "string:${t//\"/}" ;done < <(dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus /org/freedesktop/DBus org.freedesktop.DBus.ListNames | grep string ) | sed 's/uint32//; s/ //g' | sort -n | uniq -c | sort

[19:38] <EriC^> PeGaSuS: what does 'df /boot/efi' give?

[19:40] <EriC^> PeGaSuS: can you type 'sudo parted -ls | nc termbin.com 9999' and paste the link it gives you back here?
[19:41] <Sven_vB> TJ-, for the affected user it just gives the error from above. when I run it as root, it prins nothing, just runs about forever. when I remove the part behind <(…), it prints uint32 lines, seemingly forever.
[19:41] <PeGaSuS> EriC^: https://termbin.com/q5qpk ; before we continue much further, this laptop fall from a table and asked for a fsck and that's why I'm booting from the external drive though (if this helps to clean up something)
[19:42] <meagain> Hi! I got an error when running apg-get remove, like below:

[19:50] <Sven_vB> TJ-, thanks!
[19:50] <PeGaSuS> EriC^: thanks! all seems to work as expected now
[19:50] <TJ-> Sven_vB: well without the < < () it will - that sends it a set of lines
[19:51] <PeGaSuS> just wondering what might lead to this issue..
[19:51] <TJ-> Sven_vB: the part inside the while read is getting the PID for each dbus session
[19:52] <TJ-> Sven_vB: if you tag " | wc -l" on the end it'll report the number of lines read. My user shows that as 56 on desktop
[19:52] <EriC^> PeGaSuS: no problem, the issue was somehow the efi packages were installed but you're not using efi, no idea how they got there though, if you really want to know you could investigate the /var/log/apt/history.log* to see how they got installed, it could be also the installer
[19:53] <TJ-> Sven_vB: but if dbus is reporting an abort and won't iterate all the connections, or is simply failing to connect to the bus because all connections are in use... that's a problem!

[21:50] <BadBoyHaloCat> sv, depends on that hardware and which release

[21:50] <BadBoyHaloCat> printers it depends
[21:50] <BadBoyHaloCat> *most cameras[...]\
[21:51] <BadBoyHaloCat> not had much luck with *printing to* CUPS printers (everything I can find is on installing a CUPS *server*, not *client*)
[21:52] <sv> does the gnu kernel support native usb re-routing to a virtul machine so i can run the devices that are not supported in a vm at leastß
[21:52] <sv> that my friend, is a bummer.
[21:52] <BadBoyHaloCat> sv, the *GNU* kernel? or the Linux kernel?
[21:53] <oerheks> virtualbox gives an option usb pass through AFAIK

[21:54] <oerheks> maybe KVM too..
[21:54] <oerheks> canon .. lide?
