=== toddc1 is now known as toddc === M4he is now known as mahe [01:38] hello, I'm having trouble getting an ubuntu 20.04 server install to resolve hostnames I've manually added to my pihole. my MacBook resolves them without any issue [01:44] webchat30: is your DNS pointing to the pihole and set up correctly? Can you resolve any hostnames from the server (like google.ca)? Is your pihole showing requests coming in from the server in its logs? [01:45] my network is setup to send dns requests to the pihole and it works on my macbook [01:45] the ubuntu server will resolve things like google, but gets an error when I try to resolve the definitions only on the pihole [01:45] Can you see the requests comming in on the pihole from the server? [01:45] I'm not sure how I'd do that [01:45] what's /etc/resolv.conf look like? what's the output of resolvectl? (use a pastebin for this if it doesn't make sense) [01:46] or netplan.yaml? [01:46] resolvectl is a bunch of no's then Current DNS Server and DNS Servers both have the pihole ip [01:47] my understanding from reading on this is resolve.conf isn't a good solution with how networking works now [01:48] the only file in /etc/netplan is 00-installer-config.yaml I tried making some changes to it to set dns explicitly with no success [01:49] it looks like the requests are going to the pi from ubuntu [01:50] reply nxdomain blacklist [01:51] it looks like ubuntu appends .localdomain and gets no response while osx tries the hostname with and without .localdomain and gets a response on the one without [01:52] hmm, what's your /etc/resolv.conf 'search' line, if any? [01:54] localdomain [01:55] I was just gonna ask about that search line.... ahha [01:56] if I edit resolve.conf directly will it stay that way or will something else potentially rewrite the file later? this is a fresh install of 20.04 I'm just starting to get setup for k3s [01:56] Id try removing that search line. Looking at all my Ubuntu Server installs ive never filled out that search line and its resolving the pi-hole domains just fine. [02:00] what service needs to be restarted to process that change? rebooting the server undid the file edit [02:01] Im not a pro here so im trying to help figure that out. did you set localdomain in netplan/yaml by any chance? [02:02] /etc/resolv.conf changes are usually picked up immediately, the glibc nss tools re-read that file every single lookup [02:03] I don't think I set localdomain anywhere [02:03] just editing the file and running a new nslookup still fails [02:04] the netplan file is really really minimal. it basically says version 2, dhcp [02:04] I'm not sure nslookup is a good test [02:05] try using ping instead, I think it uses the system nss database === bl is now known as aknot [02:05] temporary failure in name resolution [02:05] it's been twenty years since I last used nslookup, my recollection is that it does direct dns queries itself [02:05] but that it mangles the output enough that it's not even useful for debugging dns servers, heh [02:06] hrm :( [02:06] ping doesn't even look like it hits the pi [02:07] I guess the easy answer here might be to just put all the entries in the pi with .localdomain since that seems to be what ubuntu wants to do and osx does both [02:08] I'd love to know how to actually do this, but I'd also like to get to learning about k3s [02:08] and .localdomain is a better answer than editing all the hosts files [02:09] hi :) on my Ubuntu focal I'd like to run a game, but its coding style is so bad I'm afraid it migth accidentially run havoc in my file system. do I need to set up a full chroot or do we have easier file system sandboxing methods? [02:10] Sven_vB: there's a few things, lxd is pretty easy but may not make it easy to get to the graphics.. apparmor can do that, but setting up an apparmor profile for something takes more effort than setting up lxd.. [02:10] sarnold, thanks, I'll read about them. [02:11] webchat30: yeah, that's the way things go :( but learning dns stuff in full details is also useful. [02:11] maybe someone even made an AppArmor profile already. do we have a central collection of those? [02:13] uuuugh... it doesn't work with .localdomain added either. pihole shows the request as host.localdomain but the reply is N/A [02:21] Hey All; one hard drive and the dvd drive have both failed. Having problems booting cause I get COMRESET failed from ata2 and ata3. I use kernel params to disable devices that are unusable; the famous libata2.00=disable,3.00:disable, but i'ts not working [02:21] Sven_vB: there's some very loose centralized sharing of profiles on https://gitlab.com/apparmor/apparmor-profiles and some apparmor users publish theirs eg https://git.nordisch.org/darix/apparmor-profiles-nordisch/ but there's nothing that's just perfect, no [02:22] sarnold, I'll have a look. thanks! [02:27] hello everyone [02:27] yoo [02:27] 'lo [02:28] it's hell hard to install the xchat [02:28] update: if i edit /etc/resolve.conf to use the pihole's ip instead of 127.0.0.53 the lookups work [02:29] riddder: try hexchat instead [02:30] webchat30: even though the resovlectl output from earlier showed the pihole's ip address? o_O [02:30] riddder: what was hard about it? [02:33] ata2: COMRESET failed (errno=-16) [02:33] ata3: COMRESET failed (errno=-32) [02:34] it's said that something is occupying process ,so I did the apt-cache search xchat ,find the other edition [02:35] what is an up to date instructions to install wine? (I went to the official ubuntu help site and followed something THAT WAS OVER 10 YEARS OLD.) [02:35] sudo apt install wine to the rescue [02:35] I suspect since both devices have failed, they cannot be disabled. So does the "libata2.00=disable,3.00:disable" disable the devices or does the kernel considers the them disabled/nonexistant [02:37] damn ,English is hard to translate [02:39] how do i setup vnc to be accessed via https? [02:39] on ubuntu === pi0_ is now known as pi0 [02:40] sarnold: yes,that's what I did [02:41] TheRealSoundWave: are you sure you've got the right syntax? https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt#L2595 [02:41] riddder: yay :) [02:43] sarnold: I think so : https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.13/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html [02:44] sarnold: I using the .force, I forgot to put it in there [02:45] TheRealSoundWave: it's no fun to debug something that was retyped from memory [02:45] I'm off, ahve a good night, good luck [02:45] sarnold: nighty night [02:45] sarnold:bye kindman [02:46] sarnold: libata.force=2.00:disable,3.00:disable [02:46] TheRealSoundWave: that looks much more like what I saw inthe docs :) bummer, though, since that seemed like such an easy one.. heh. [02:47] sarnold: Ya well, welcome to my life [02:48] Well, I'm doing doing to many mistakes. I'm quitting for today. [02:49] ThankX === BrianG61UK__ is now known as BrianG61UK [03:01] Sometimes my mouse stops working completely and no clicks work. You can see the mouse dragging. The PC only works with keyboard. Mouse can move, but no mouse buttons do anything [03:01] No idea what's going on. The only solution I have is to reboot. [03:01] Nothing has crashed. [03:02] *sigh* [03:04] dude [03:05] I am so tired of this. [03:06] left/right mouse buttons don't work, middle one does. All of a sudden while just using the computer [03:06] This has happened 3-4 times in the past week. Randomly [03:07] Just have to restart the whole pc in order to get the mouse to work again [03:10] https://superuser.com/questions/72112/mouse-clicks-suddenly-stopped-working-in-ubuntu [03:11] 2 ways to get it working again for a short time 1 - unplugging and replugging the mouse, 2 - alt-F1 to switch to text mode then alt-F7 (or F8) to switch back to graphics [03:11] That worked. [03:11] Why does Ubuntu do this? It's always some issue I'm having which shouldn't even be an issue in a 'stable' desktop produced by a multi million dollar company [03:11] That's just sad. [03:12] Then when I criticize Ubuntu, the only response is, oh you're offtopic or you're trolling or you're this or that and they come after you. [03:12] sarnold and StoneMonarch: I ended up leaving the local dns entries in the pihole the way they were and installed resolvconf then edited its file to add my name server explicitly. now it works. I also found the localdomain was coming from my DHCP settings in my router. removed that too though that without the new package made no change. I still [03:12] don't really understand what netplan is doing with dns [03:15] webchat30: If netplan is set to DHCP it is going to take the settings provided by your router. I statically assigned mine at startup. Can take a look here => https://pastebin.com/r2FrWax2 [03:16] I said startup when i meant install [03:16] I prefer to have static DHCP assignments in my router and it is giving it the right dns server, but netplan is doing something weird [03:19] All fun and games until you have to factory reset your network gear cause ya messed something up real bad... Not that I have ever done that...

[06:03] Mark the name of your screensaver, e.g. /usr/bin/mate-screensaver. Then make a shell script wrapper at /usr/local/bin/mate-screensaver [06:03] That script will log the time, run /usr/bin/mate-screensaver, then log the time again [06:03] ash_worksi: and that way you have your logs without any other configuration :) [06:04] I.e. the desktop environment will automatically run your wrapper instead of /usr/bin/mate-screensaver, due to the stock PATH settings === y0sh- is now known as y0sh_ === doubleqp9 is now known as doubleqp === toabctl_ is now known as toabctl === martums1 is now known as martums === dstein64- is now known as dstein64 === AKTheKnight5 is now known as AKTheKnight === stanglavine7 is now known as stanglavine === blaklistd8 is now known as blaklistd === newdimension8 is now known as newdimension === lucerne9 is now known as lucerne === jeddo_ is now known as jeddo === erica5 is now known as erica === Bencraft8 is now known as Bencraft === WireTark is now known as Tark === GLaDER3 is now known as GLaDER === nanook2 is now known as nanook === kiska3 is now known as kiska === manuels8 is now known as manuels === parallax_ is now known as parallax === kaizen__ is now known as kaizen === petris_ is now known as petris === deus is now known as Guest8265 [06:23] HI [06:25] hi === Hash is now known as websec === websec is now known as Hash [07:13] Hi, what is the correct wat to add a language to LO through the ubuntu repositories? === tolecnal_ is now known as tolecnal === djhankb4 is now known as djhankb === mnabid_ is now known as mnabid [07:23] brandoneliza: i suspect installing libreoffice-l10n- would do it, there's also help packages for a bunch of languages [07:25] hi [07:27] help === Casper26_ is now known as Casper26 === bahama- is now known as bahamat === RaimondR- is now known as RaimondRaj [07:33] !ask | aslan_ [07:33] aslan_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily).

Ubuntu root / is installed in a LUKS partition and the boot partition is a separate 1GB partition. My question is: when I perform the 'chroot' command do I chroot into the root partition or into the boot partition? [09:31] zetheroo: root [09:32] zetheroo: after the chroot you want to "mount /boot" [09:32] ok, I have both root and boot partitions already mounted [09:32] I also performed the 'bind' commands [09:34] EriC^^: I guess when I do the 'grub-install /dev/xyz' command I then need to point to the boot partition mount point ...? [09:34] agvantibo I can't do everything smoothly or I am doing it wrong. Should I press ctrl + alt + 3? After the first "who" [09:35] EriC^^: oh wait, not that I am chroot'ed the boot partition mountpoint is no longer accessible because it's "outside" of where I am [09:36] zetheroo: you want to run 'grub-install /dev/sdx' if you're using legacy [09:38] EriC^^: in the chroot environment if I do 'll /boot' I can see the contents of the boot partition [09:38] sounds good zetheroo [09:39] I also see with 'df -h' that /dev/nvme0n1p5 (the boot partition) is mounted at /boot [09:39] zetheroo: maybe run 'mount -a' to mount everything in fstab [09:40] I don't have /dev/sdx ... root partition is /dev/mapper/luks-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [09:41] zetheroo: you want to point it to the disk not the root partition [09:41] in the chroot env 'df -h' shows /dev/dm-0 as mounted to / [09:41] hmm ok [09:41] zetheroo: are you using legacy? no efi partition? [09:42] I haven't done anything with EFI ... at least not knowingly. Is that something automatically done? [09:42] zetheroo: try "grep efi /etc/fstab" [09:43] inside the chroot env? [09:43] yeah [09:44] shows a vfat entry at /boot/efi [09:44] zetheroo: type 'mount -a' do you see any efi partition that mounted at /boot/efi? [09:44] disk device name seems to be /dev/nvme0n1 [09:45] yes [09:45] /dev/nvme0m1p1 [09:45] zetheroo: ok, type 'grub-install' it should take care of everything [09:45] ok [09:46] done - No error reported [09:46] ok, update-grub [09:47] did some stuff and then says "grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sda1. Chek your device.map." [09:47] but finished with 'done' [09:47] looks good [09:48] ok [09:48] can I exit the chroot and reboot? [09:48] yea [09:48] super ...

[10:31] zetheroo: maybe some acpi issues? [10:31] Windows shutdown works. Ubuntu 20.04 LIVE sessions shutdown works. [10:31] when you press esc, does it show what it's hanging on? [10:32] It seems to have shutdown, but the power doesn't turn off. (Only when shutting down from installed Ubuntu 20.04) [10:33] Strangely it wasn't doing this initially. Maybe I should just reinstall Ubuntu [10:34] zetheroo: sounds like some acpi issue [10:35] you could try some kernel parameters for acpi_osi etc in case it fixes it [10:36] zetheroo: does the initial kernel work? maybe a kernel update is what caused it [10:36] yeah, could be. [10:39] I'm having trouble setting fs.nfs.nfs_mountpoint_timeout in sysctl, it seems I cannot set that setting until after I've mounted an NFS share?

[10:55] I updated yesterday and now my cursor is different, how do I change it back to the default? I'm using a custom window manager and my desktop environment is Unity so things like gnome-tweak-tool don't work [10:55] Looking for a way to do it from the terminal [10:56] zetheroo: yeah use apt to install it [10:57] ok [10:58] There are not many resources on google for this === BlessJah_ is now known as BlessJah [11:03] EriC^^: I am having difficulty finding what kernel was before the one I have installed.

[11:28] there are 2 PPAs - Google and Slack stable [11:28] I didn't do anything to tweak kernels etc ... [11:28] yeah those wouldnt pull kernels [11:29] so lets assume apt knows what it did then [11:30] ok [11:31] So I should not revert to the HWE kernel? [11:32] zetheroo: what i 'think' happened is apt chose that oem kernel as it might fit better for your lenovo [11:32] Would it be possible for me to install the HWE kernel and try booting from it to see if the shutdown works? [11:33] or is that too risky? [11:33] zetheroo: check your kernel list; dpkg --list | grep linux-image [11:34] only the OEM kernel is showing [11:34] two lines of output for that one [11:39] zetheroo: you are the boss of your machine, if you choose to test another kernel, apt will match your idea [11:39] ok, I'll install that 5.11 hwe kernel and test it out [11:39] !hwe [11:39] The Ubuntu LTS enablement stacks provide newer kernel and X support for existing LTS releases, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack === Guest4177 is now known as Mekaneck [11:42] holdon zetheroo [11:42] zetheroo: bug #1940665 [11:42] Bug 1940665 in linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu) "Lenovo Carbon X1 9th gen no longer powers off" [Undecided, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1940665 [11:42] got a LP account zetheroo ?

Installed the canonical chromium snap and it failed within 20 seconds (10 of which is still spent on starting the app first time). What can be done to speed up app start (sound like a small thing, but it's really not!) and to make apps not crash like this). I can [11:51] reproduce the crash with Bitwarden and Chromium, and have not tried anything else. === Guest2215 is now known as Mekaneck [11:52] !next | tmus [11:52] tmus: Impish Indri is the codename for Ubuntu 21.10.

[13:06] lotuspsychje: What would be the best/cleanest way to remove the OEM kernel completely? And then, is there a way to not permit the kernel from updating? [13:06] 🙂 [13:06] why would you not want it to upgrade ? [13:07] (and get security fixes etc) [13:07] ogra: because it breaks with the newest kernel [13:07] the bugs need to be fixed first [13:08] you mean with something newer than 5.11 ? or with the latest 5.11 kernel (and you are using an older build) [13:09] Is there a command I can use to see if a user has been blocked from logging in via SSH? [13:09] For instance due to too many attempts [13:09] The latest 5.11 kernel is working fine. I don't want it to upgrade to the OEM kernel [13:09] ogra: bug #1940665 [13:09] Bug 1940665 in linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu) "Lenovo Carbon X1 9th gen no longer powers off" [Undecided, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1940665 [13:11] zetheroo, well, justs "dpkg -l | grep linux-oem" and purge all packages that returns should be sufficient usually ... 5.11 will get regular updates thugh [13:12] tmus, for snap issues you should post on forum.snapcraft.io [13:13] ogra, okay, thanks [13:13] tmus, i'd recommend the "snapd" category, that way the right people see it [13:14] perfect, thanks [13:14] (note that chromium starts in under 5sec on a fresh boot for me here on 20.04) [13:14] (so this is definitely not expected) [13:15] ogra: ok, will do. But what do I do to stop the OEM kernel from being reinstalled next time I install updates? [13:16] zetheroo, if you uninstall it it should not "just come back" [13:17] oh? [13:17] linux-oem is likely the toplevel metapackage, once that is gone refreshes should not just pull it back in [13:18] ok, so removing linux-oem-20.04 should keep that kernel away for good ... ? [13:18] I'll try to do a full-upgrade now [13:18] there might be other metapackages, this is why i said to purge everything with linux and oem in the name [13:19] huh, looks good. It's not telling me to install any oem kernel :) [13:19] great [13:19] yes, I purged the three packages which were listed [13:19] good, that should work then [13:20] +1 [13:21] Super [13:22] I wonder why when I installed the 5.11 kernel on the previous install the touchpad and networking stopped working when I booted into it [13:22] perhaps missing modules or firmware ? [13:22] Guessing this is just another Letsencrypt X3 question: does this openssl response looks accurate? https://pastebin.com/raw/3Fi1tNBM I see that DST Root CA X3 is still in the chain and we're having some odd issues with expired certificates. I am wondering if I need to do something more on my ubuntu server than just re-generate the certificates... [13:23] ok. so are there other packages which need to be installed manually which aren't pulled in when installing the kernel? [13:23] the kernels have been split a while ago ... there is a -modules-extra package now that does not always get auto-installed [13:24] hmm ok, will have to remember this. We have two more of these laptops [13:24] dpkg -l | grep linux-modules [13:24] take a look if you have the -extra pcakge [13:24] *package [13:26] hehe, I did that now and I see there is a modules package still lingering from the OEM kernel install :D [13:26] hah [13:26] naughty thing [13:27] it likes you 😉 [13:27] I don't like it! [13:27] it just wants to cuddle !!! [13:28] This isn't a mutually affectionate relationship! 🙅 [13:28] haha [13:30] Any idea how this OEM kernel gets installed in the first place? [13:31] probably the installer thinks it is a good idea ? not sure [13:31] you use a vendor supplied installation or recovery image, or system with preinstalled ubuntu oem variant [13:31] yeah, or that [13:32] I am using the ISO from the Ubuntu website [13:32] hmm i hadn't expected that to install the oem kernel [13:33] check his dpkg log; https://termbin.com/97lk [13:34] maybe ubiquity has a listing of systems which are 'oem supported' [13:35] zetheroo: can you share journalctl -b | grep DMI: [13:35] The only thing I can see relating to this oem kernel is that when I removed it there was this other package it wanted to have removed called oem-sutton.newell-meta, which looks like what is referred to in the Additional Drivers dialog [13:36] tomreyn: sure, just a moment [13:37] so another theory could be that you chose to install 'additional drivers' on ubiquity, it detected that your system could use this proprietary driver and that driver depends on the oem kernel. just another theory. [13:37] https://termbin.com/nvlc === pascal_ is now known as Guest7566 [13:37] tomreyn: but that would have to be happening during install then [13:38] tomreyn, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2020-January/002478.html [13:38] the installer ships oem kernels by default now and picks if it thinks -oem fits better [13:39] tomreyn: just now when I installed Ubuntu 20.04.3 I did not select the option to install additional drivers, but I did have the option to install updates during install - and on first boot the OEM driver was installed already. [13:39] zetheroo: yes. also, my first theory just collapsed. lenovo does not provide ubuntu support for this system https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-t-series-laptops/thinkpad-t14s-gen-2-type-20wm-20wn/20wm/20wm003pmz (see the "operating system" drop-down) [13:39] ogra: good find! [13:40] i'm glad all these changes are constantly feeded into release notes. :-( === Guest7566 is now known as pascal__ [13:41] I have set up 3 of these same laptops in the past 2 - 3 weeks and did not notice the shutdown problem with the first two. They were shutting down normally. So is it possible that the selection of the OEM kernel over the generic was something rather recent? [13:43] it could be that new modaliases were added in 20.04.3 [13:44] so if you were using the 20.04.2 or earlier installer for th eother ones they might not have gotten it during installation. just another theory. [13:46] I'm assigning a static ip to a machine and then setting the global dns to point to that machine. Inside the machine, do i need to change /etc/resolve.conf or some other file? Nginx is giving me this error: "no resolver defined to resolve r3.o.lencr.org…" [13:49] how are you "setting the global dns to point to that machine"? and does it have a dns recursor running? [13:50] if not, which recursor do you actually mean to use? [13:50] tomreyn: I'm using godaddy to say mydomain.com -> static ip [13:51] that's authoritative dns for your domain name, that's seperate from recursive resolvers. [13:51] tomreyn: nslookup mydomain.com -> gives the static ip [13:51] that static ip is what i assign to my network interface for my aws vm [13:52] your server needs a way to resolve not just your but generally any hostnames, e.g. it will need to know the ip addresses of the servers it downloads apt updates from. [13:52] tomreyn: I use a ubuntu ami from aws - I think that should already be working? [13:53] probably, yes. cat /etc/resolv.conf will probably tell how it looks up dns names. [13:54] tomreyn: nameserver 127.0.0.53 \n options edns0 trust-ad \n search ec2.internal [13:54] resolvctl status [13:55] ...should tell you which resolver is being used [13:55] "resolvectl" (note the 'e') [13:56] thanks [13:57] tomreyn: I'm changing the static ip of the network interface while the machine is running. Do I need to do something inside ubuntu to let it know that? Perhaps restart networking? [13:57] pycurious: if you're assigning a static IP address you're also responsible for setting a static DNS forwarder server [13:58] yes, it's a good idea to restart networking afterwards, maybe even reboot so that any services will catch it up. [13:58] pycurious: usually that'll be your ISP's DNS forwarders [13:58] pycurious: if you know the address, use "resolvectl dns

" [13:59] r3.o.lencr.org does resolve on the internet, so maybe your system just lacks access (due to misconfiguration or firewalling) to a resolver. [13:59] tomreyn: what networking command should i use to restart things that effect ip assignment? [13:59] how did you apply the static ip address assignment? [13:59] pycurious: if you set address manually, and restart the network manager, it may remove that manually set address [14:00] * tomreyn bbl [14:00] TJ-: I set the ip from aws cli - from outside currently. [14:01] TJ-: https://pastebin.com/nJJxrMt2 - this is what my global output begins with. [14:01] pycurious: that's not what we'd describe as setting the address manually. We mean using command-line tools usch as "ip addr add 1.2.3.4/24 dev enp1s0" [14:02] pycurious: is this an ubuntu-server installation? [14:03] TJ-: yes - am running nginx inside (20.04LTS Minimal image) [14:03] TJ-: do you see anything problematic in the dns global output beginning? [14:03] pycurious: so that (-server) infers it uses systemd-networkd to configure networking [14:04] pycurious: and usually it'll have a configuration in /etc/netplan/ that at each boot will generate a systemd-networkd configuration in /run/systemd/network/ [14:04] -bash: systemd-networkd: command not found [14:05] TJ-: I've to make this work without a reboot because of other services running on this machine. [14:05] pycurious: why are you trying to run that command? it isn't expected to be found [14:05] pycurious: check the contents of the directories I pointed you to [14:06] TJ-: I'm not sure how to fix the dns on this machine still so was checking systemd-netpland. [14:07] TJ-: /etc/netplan -> dhcp4:true -> I'm guessing the static ip flows from outside as dhcp? [14:07] pycurious: That file should cause a systemd-networkd config to be generated in /run/systemd/network/ [14:08] and a file in /run/systemd/network/ is what will actually configure the network [14:08]
