webchat99hello02:25
lotuspsychjewelcome webchat9902:25
webchat99thanks02:25
webchat99I had some issues with the internet on my ubuntu machine and I was wondering if someone could help me out02:25
sarnoldprobably someone can make some suggestions, yeah02:30
oerheksask your real question and find out?02:31
webchat29so when I first turn on my laptop, it connects to the wifi and also loads webpages, but after a few seconds, even though its still connected to the wifi, it doesn't load anything02:32
webchat29and if I disconnect the wifi and connect it again it'll open the first few webpages and then again it'll stop02:33
webchat29also this is all wifi and not wired, I have not tested what happens with wired connection02:33
sarnoldhave you tried on multiple wifi networks? have you tried other devices on that wifi network?02:34
webchat29yes, my phone and stuff work fine02:34
sarnoldhow about lower-level tools? if you start a ping to your router, or ping 8.8.8.8, what happens when the web pages stop working?02:36
hoangthoHi guys. :)02:37
sarnoldhello hoangtho :)02:37
hoangthoUhh can i get help here? I facing some fonts trouble02:38
webchat29okay so I pinged 8.8.8.8 and it was working, ```02:38
sarnoldyeah, probably someone may have suggestions02:38
sarnoldwebchat29: and it stayed working for a while?02:38
webchat29but now I've stopped getting a response02:38
sarnoldwebchat29: aha... do you get error messages?02:38
webchat29nope02:38
sarnoldhrmph :(02:39
webchat29I think it might still be loading02:39
webchat29okay02:39
webchat29I got "destination host unreachable"02:39
oerhekssome power saving mode02:39
hoangthoI'm using LTS 20.04. With latest kernel and Chrome. But somehow, i'm facing the font trouble with this https://imgur.com/a/LlbGsQy02:39
sneepph88: Use the -i option then. The man page says "Read URLs from a local or external file.  If - is specified as file, URLs are read from the standard input.  (Use ./- to read from a file literally named -.)"02:39
webchat29its pinging again02:40
webchat29lol I don't know whats going on02:40
oerheksinstall TLP, or seehttps://askubuntu.com/questions/1159273/permanently-disable-wifi-power-management-in-ubuntu-server-18-0402:40
hoangthoI installed the font in inspect element but nothing worked02:40
hoangthois that OS problem or the web it self?02:40
hoangthoMy language is Vietnamese so the string in the log it Vietnamese too. They look like font broken or something02:41
sarnoldwow the vietnamese bits there look so gross02:42
hoangthoYeah i know.02:42
sarnoldthe vietnamese in the tab title looks fine; is that just luck, or does it actually look better always?02:43
hoangthoThat made me driving so crazy right now. You can imagine that i spent all 3 days to fix that but nothing work02:43
hoangthohttps://imgur.com/a/dztNzI2it should be like this ( i was installed ms-font-pack core with Tahoma, but somehow the Google Chrome and other Browser didn't )02:46
hoangtho* https://imgur.com/a/dztNzI202:46
oerheksmaybe you need to let chrome use systemfonts?02:46
matsamanshould probably use chromium if you need something Chrome-y02:47

TellmarchHi - I have installed a package with "apt-get install openjdk-11-dbg", which automatically pulled a lot of dependencies (graphical libraries). now I removed the package with "apt-get remove openjdk-11-dbg", but it only removed that one package. Is there a way to automatically uninstall the dependencies that were added with the install command?08:08
toddcTellmarch: apt-get purge openjdk-11-dbg then apt autoremove they may still show till a reboot08:14
Tellmarchso I already did "apt-get remove openjdk-11-dbg" which only removed one package, and now the purge/autoremove don't do anything (probably because of that).. . does it make sense to re=install it to purge it properly?08:16
toddcTellmarch: normally no but sometimes diirctories will show them till they are updated IE reboot. there are other ways but I just reboot to get everything back in sync08:19
Tellmarchok I managed to cleanup using the same command on one of the dependencies, thanks08:19
toddcTellmarch: Purge should remove all depencies and traces but I reboot to be sure then autoremove08:21

ezakimaklooks like both systemd and networkmanager are trying to control dnsmasq08:25
ezakimaknetwork manager keeps restarting it, but w/o a config file, so systemd's attempts to start it fail because it's already bound the ports08:25
ezakimakok, so -HUP doesn't work on it, but killing it so nm restarts it will make it reread the conf-dir08:27
ezakimakok, so do I leave dnsmasq.service disabled since nm manages it outside of systemd ?08:30
ThaurwylthI'm having a wifi problem that is very likely a modern version of this -  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1230922/ubuntu-20-04-lts-intel-7260-wireless-wont-connect-to-wifi-network  - but things have changed a little bit. Nowadays the iwlw module is part of the kernel. What is the way to affect the different network bands used, today? I probably want to try to disable the n band, maybe both 5 GHz and08:59
Thaurwylthlower.08:59
cxlHi all, could anyone tell me if I can install Ubuntu on one machine and then plug that harddrive into another machine (both Intel CPUs but one is an i7 4th gen and the other a Xeon later gen, different hardware, one is a laptop the other a desktop) and boot Ubuntu with no issues? Or is this a bad idea?08:59
ThaurwylthBackground: my wifi card worked a month ago and now it sort of doesn't work. It finds the networks but it will always hang up on authentication. The passwords are definitely correct.09:00
mzo_cxl: that should work without issue09:02
guiverccxl, I've done what you're asking and had no issues on very different hardware, but I've also done it on hardware where I didn't expect issues (same brand/model desktop but it didn't boot & a re-install was fastest fix (spent hours trying to fix before the re-install)09:03
toddccxl: yes   but if it is uefi you may have to enter the bios and pint it to grub2 assuming both are uefi09:03
cxlThanks, I'll give it a shot. And if it doesn't work, I'll reinstall then.09:05
guiverccxl, I've volunteered at a recycler where we repurposed donated hardware by putting Ubuntu on it... we cloned the ubuntu image to drives; but all boxes were 'tweaked' to ensure the cloned image worked.. one most boxes tweaking was quick, on others it took awhile..09:06

gordonjcpmorning09:40
gordonjcpI have two more-or-less identical machines with two more-or-less identical installs of Ubuntu 20.0409:40
gordonjcpon one, I can install wine32 no problem09:41
gordonjcpon the other, I get " wine32:i386 : Depends: libc6:i386 (>= 2.28) but it is not going to be installed09:41
gordonjcpwhere should I start looking?09:41
gordonjcpI followed exactly the same instructions on both systems, off the wine wiki09:42
alkisg_webgordonjcp: what's the output of this command, on the system where it doesn't work? apt policy libc6:i38609:44
gordonjcpalkisg_web: https://minecraft.gjcp.net/out.txt09:48
alkisg_webgordonjcp, it looks good, oh well try to install that package first, before wine09:49

gordonjcpalkisg_web: any thoughts?09:59
alkisg_webgordonjcp, do NOT press enter there :D10:01
alkisg_webYou have some other package conflict that doesn't show up there, yet needs to be resolved first10:01
gordonjcpalkisg_web: yeah, I didn't do that10:02
alkisg_webDid you run the dpkg --add-architecture i386 command?10:02
alkisg_webdpkg --print-foreign-architectures10:03
alkisg_webi38610:03
ThaurwylthHm. How about my wifi problem? It seems that I need to learn how to affect the use of different bands for a module that is incorporated in kernel 5.11. My current understanding is that I can't do this by going to /etc/modprobe.d/<something> , is this correct? Maybe it's not correct?10:07
Thaurwylth(You can check back about one hour on the channel log for some more information.)10:07
alkisg_webThaurwylth, type `journalctl -b -f`, then try to authenticate to wifi, then put the journal output to pastebin10:09
ThaurwylthMoment...10:09
alkisg_webThat's for an internal intel wifi adapter, not a usb one, right?10:09
ThaurwylthYes, internal Intel 7260 card.10:10
alkisg_web(back later)10:20
ThaurwylthHere it is. Please disregard the Bluetooth and bakclight messages, they won't be important here. Also in the end I turned off the network because it failed already before that. https://pastebin.com/w6sG5Z1610:20
ThaurwylthThat 'Couldn't get secrets' style message is also what it shows as a notification on the graphical interface every time that problem appears.10:21
gordonjcpalkisg_web: it works, now, I didn't do anything10:25
gordonjcpalkisg_web: it just works10:25
gordonjcpalkisg_web: <shrug>10:25
ThaurwylthI will occasionally be checking out my own Irssi backlog or the official channel records.10:53

ronald_mcdonaldaiena, does nemo have a channel11:39
aienaI don;t know #nemo is not taken11:39
aienaDOes linux mint still use cinnamon11:40
aienanot sure. SInce it is just a package and a general question the distro shouldn't matter a lot11:40
aienaI'll try there I guess.11:41
ronald_mcdonaldaiena, there are many people out there11:41
ronald_mcdonaldYou can try a general linux channel too11:41
aienaI think I'll just install nautilus11:43
aienaI am using KDE but really miss something like filemmanager-actions for KDE11:43
aienaI use many buntu's including ubuntu because its a bit more comfortable having a common base11:44
ronald_mcdonaldaiena, I know its possible in Thunar11:44
ronald_mcdonaldBecause I had to do it once11:44
aienain KDE it is possible too but I had to mess with some xml in ~/.config/something11:44
aienafilemanager-actions is graphical so its so easy peasy11:45
ronald_mcdonaldaiena, its possible in Thunar11:47
ronald_mcdonaldaiena, file managers are not really tied to distros I think11:47
aienawell most packages aren't11:47
aienaI'd say many things are tied to DEs rather than distros11:48
aienagnome route or the QT route11:48
aienaI've accepted that there will always be a mix of DEs if you really use linux11:48
ronald_mcdonaldaiena, I have used qt apps within a xfce os (and I think xfce is like gnome's cousin)11:49
ronald_mcdonaldIt's not really a problem11:49
aienaIt isn't11:49
aienaIt is just that so many more packages get pulled11:50
aienaand small things like the file->open dialogs etc of each program will have different features based on what they are based on11:50
aienalikr gimp/firefox look gnomish but krita uses the KDE file manager11:51
aienaand some will have more/less features as a resuly11:51
aienait's all good11:51
ronald_mcdonaldaiena, yeah the open file dialogs are annoying when there are multiple toolkits12:00

fortellerHi. I'm on a laptop with Ubuntu 21.04, and I've done everything I can think of to get DRMd DVDs to work. Nothing's working, and now I hope I can get help here. I've turned on multiverse, installed libdvd-pkg by following this guide: https://itsfoss.com/play-dvd-ubuntu-1310/ I've installed libdvdcss and libdvdread8. I've installed13:15
fortellerubuntu-restricted-extras and VLC, and tried playing through Videos and through VLC.

rbasakforteller: I'm having to think back many years here, so I may be wrong - but IIRC, some DVD hardware region locked and that can't be bypassed by software. Do you possibly have one of those?13:18

jpmhleftyfb: sadly I can not use LXD we need to pass independent PCI audits and the auditors will not pass LXD yet17:38
leftyfbjpmh: if they'll pass docker, then they should have no problem passing lxd17:38
jpmhcbreak: I know I don't need to use it for most things nut it seems clear that cannoical is moving that way17:39
jpmhleftyfb: docker is not permitted17:39
leftyfbjpmh: you asked about 20.04 specifically. If you're not using snap now, then you don't be required to use it in 20.0417:39
jpmhleftyfb: actually docker is permitted IF and ONLY IF the daemon us run as non-root17:39
jpmhleftyfb: yes - I'm aware of that with snap - and that's why I'm not against going to 20.04 - in fact our newer servers ARE running 20.04 - and it is fine17:40
jpmhmy consideration of 20.04 is that I will then be off the hook till 202517:42
jpmhwill there be an LTS in 2022?17:42
bigpodyes17:42
bigpodevery 2 years there is LTS17:43
leftyfbjpmh: only if there is a 2022 :)17:43
bigpodso 22.04 will be LTS then next one is 24.04 hopefully maybe17:43
jpmhbigpod: TY - on that basis I may keep the 18.04s as that until 22.04 is available and do the upgrade then.  Does that make sense17:44
bigpodjpmh: if there is no need to upgrade there is no problem with not upgrading since 18.04 will be fully supported by canonical untill 202517:49
jpmhbigpod: that was my though - and I am just gun-shy of an upgrade failing so would prefer to do it once rather than twice17:50
bigpodjpmh: that is a consideration for many people, i never had any problems upgrading but i did hear people have problems upgrading17:52
sehro@jpmh you'd still have to do it twice, technically. dist-upgrade is only supported from LTS to LTS-next, not from LTS to LTS-next+2 (e.g., 18.04 -> 20.04 yes, 18.04 -> 22.04 no)17:52
jpmhbigpod: we run a little over a thousaand servers and almost always the upgrade is flawleess, but when it isn't, and that is VERY rare, it really is a pain.  The client has less service and we ahve the brain damage of a re-build, which while automated, still does require some interaction17:53
jpmhsehro: yes - sadly I'm aware of that17:54
jpmhthe other positive of waiting is that the client on a particular server may have already chose to upgrade his service with us and so we may have already re-installed, or sadly, we may have lost the client and it will not matter17:55
bigpodi recommend using do-release -upgrade not just simply going sudo apt dist-upgrade17:55
jpmhbigpod: that is always how we have done it, I agree 100%17:55
pycuriousChristianVonders: any suggestions?18:13
leftyfbpycurious: something like icinga is good for monitoring if a machine is on and what services are running on it, disk space, etc. You could also write a plugin to talk to the BMC to see if the machine is powered on even if it's still in a booting state18:24
ChristianVondersHere at home I'm using Observium because its pretty easy to set up. Although one downside is that it only supports SNMP as protocol and all the polling events are only triggered every 5 minutes, so in the worst case what you're looking at is 5 minutes old (there are possibilities to increase the polling rate although it looks like its a lot of work because a lot of reconfiguration for some tools is required).18:24
MiloI'm getting a bit of a problem with Device: Mesa Intel(R) Xe Graphics (TGL GT2) (0x9a49).18:29
Milohttps://dpaste.com/3RK44R9HH - some kind of permission denied for the graphics card when running in docker18:30
Milohttps://dpaste.com/HCA3CYZQJ - crash was missing from the above18:31
pycuriousChristianVonders: I'm looking for preferably seconds of uptime/downtime/rebooting state data to capture18:48
ChristianVonders<pycurious "Christian Vonderstein: I'm looki"> So you get information about reboots as you get stats about the uptime of the system but if you need latency measured like every second or so you wont be happy with observium. Then something like icinga mentioned by leftyfb is probably the better way (or Grafana + Influx + some collectors)18:53
sarnoldI thought icinga was 'just' periodic status checks, something different than metrics collection..18:55
cokeall status checks over time are metrics19:05
cokejust a mater of recording them properly19:05
leftyfbsarnold: they had only asked about keeping track of state. No mention of metrics19:08
leftyfbeither way, any data gathering solution can log the data and metrics built on said data can be done after19:08
leftyfbpycurious: This is a bit out of scope for the support provided here. You might get more information from #ubuntu-server or further discussion in #ubuntu-offtopic19:09
tomreynMilo: you did not mention your ubuntu release and kernel version19:11
Milo20.04 focal with linux-oem-20.04 kernel, as recommended by intel's iris guide19:13
tomreynthat should be linux 5.10 then, i had assumed that'd be new enough19:16
tomreynbut then the driver also seems to be loading for you, it's "just" a mesa issue. you could try oibaf drivers.19:16
Miloyeah, oibaf drivers?19:17
VIAhai everyone19:18
VIAquestion, im looking to adjust audio settings on ubuntu 20.04. i get the standard audio settings but im looking for something like a more or less complex equalizer or perhaps even different filters19:18
Milointel's guide keeps saying I should have a vfio-pci driver in use, but I can't seem to get that to exist19:19
tomreynMilo: make sure you read all of the notes on https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers?field.series_filter=focal - also note that this probably depends on either the GA or HWE kernel, i would not expect it to be tested with the OEM one.19:19
Miloalright, worth the shot, but that'll have to wait until monday19:20
sarnoldleftyfb: ah, I missed that, I just saw a reference to observium :)19:20
Miloalready 10:30 pm :)19:20
tomreyndoes it work fine without docker though?19:20
tomreynvfio-pci would be about vrtualization, i think. docker is not virtualization.19:21
Miloah19:21
Milono, docker is able to get some sort of opengl context in place, but not all of our stuff. Local build has a fancy segfault (general protection fault) in one of the shared objects. been trying to trace that with no success so far19:22
Miloand absolutely same source code works on earlier intel graphics cards (and other machines as well)19:23
sarnoldVIA: I found this a very useful description of a bunch of the moving pieces in the linux audio stack https://venam.nixers.net/blog/unix/2021/02/07/audio-stack.html -- I think the section "Pulseaudio — Everything Is A Module Thinking" is likely to be most immediately useful19:24
VIAwewew looks very comprehensive thanks sarnold19:31
sarnoldhehe yeah19:31
sarnoldthere's a *lot* there..19:31

cbreakwhat's the best API to add a custom application / menu into the top menu bar?21:09
cbreakhmm... looks like they're called gnome extensions21:10
ThaurwylthAlkisg, yo yo. Or maybe someone else can comment on this?21:11
ThaurwylthIn today's channel log at 8:59 UTC there's a record of my problem. Or starting from there. Then...21:12
ThaurwylthAfter 10:07 alkisg asks me to journalctl and I also present the journalctl output. Can someone help with that?21:14
guzzlefryHello, would upgrading to a recent Ubuntu version solve this issue? https://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~klada/?site=projects&id=logitechkbd21:23

lupihi guys. how can I properly enable ipv6? I set dhcp6 to true in netplan. ran sudo netplan apply and rebooted but when I try to ping google.com, it does not work. pinging ipv4 works though.21:39
bahamatlupi: Does your network properly support ipv6?21:40
lupibahamat ugh. crap. now that you mention it. the host itself does not seem to be able to ping it (im using ubuntu in vm)21:41
lupiis there a way to make it use ipv4 by default?21:42
euouaeHello I'm trying to figure out the network SSID I'm connected to from the command line. How can I do this?21:42
bahamatlupi: I guess it depends on what "it" is?21:42
euouaewifi?21:42
lupibahamat: I meant, make ubuntu use ipv4 by default when using network stuff (ping, nslookup, wget)21:43
euouaeah I can use iwconfig! Thanks!21:43
lupithe host (windows), uses ipv4 by default even though it has an ip621:43
bahamatlupi: I don't think there's anything specific you need to do. If you don't have a valid route to the v6 destination then it will use v4.21:43
lupibahamat: yeah, that what I expected too. but it doesn't seem to do that. I was expecting ping to use google's ip421:44
lupinetplan is basically this. https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/2NmX42QbGt/21:46
bahamatwhat does your v6 routing table look like?21:47
lupigimme a sec.21:48
lupibahamat: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/c74rKnvYYb/21:50
bahamatlupi: Looks like your network is advertising v6, but routing is broken. In this case is to either fix your network or set dhcp6 to false in netplan21:53
bahamatIt's not much different than v4 if your dhcp server is working but your router is broken.21:54
lupiby router. you mean the device, yeah?21:54
bahamatNo, I mean router21:54
lupioh ok. the routing21:54
bahamatYeah. The default gateway needs to be able to properly route traffic. If it can't, your network is broken.21:55
bahamatDoesn't matter if it's ipv4, ipv6, ipx, appletalk, whatever.21:55
bahamatif your router is broken, it's broken.21:55
lupiwell, I dont know how to fix that so I guess I'll just disable ipv6 in netplan21:55
bahamatYour network is advertising that there is valid v6 connectivity. If it's lying, there's not much you can do about that except fix it or disable v6 entirely on the host.21:57
lupihmm. I see. that's much clearer now.21:57
lupiok that's weird. I've set dhcp6 to false already and it did not work.21:59
bahamatDo you still have v6 networking up on your host?22:00
lupiah crap. yeah. the host still has 6 enabled. need to remove that too22:01
lupiit's all good now. thanks bahamat22:08
