sarnoldxu-irc22w: aha :D thanks -- so, as far as I can tell there's no 'wimlib' package; there's a 'wimtools' package though, that's probably what you want00:09
ash_worksiI know this is a #screen question but I kinda doubt anyone is super active on it; does anyone happen to know how to show settings (like altscreen or scrollback) instead of setting them? (eg `:scrollback` will just flip scrollback, so can tell what it *used* to be, but I want not to change it)00:09

ubottuDo not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo00:30

C0nundrum*** /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv should be checked for errors *** ?01:04
C0nundrumit seemed like i fixed everything in the live cd01:04
thunderysteakFor the no display issue on the Venue 11 Pro I'm just throwing random kernels at it and seeing what sticks. It seems like with every different kernel from the repos something else is just absolutely broken that was caused by upgrade to 20.04.3 LTS01:08
sarnoldthunderysteak: there's instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack on how to roll back to the original release kernel rather than the HWE kernels01:10
thunderysteaksarnold: Rolling back did not work, I'm currently flashing Fedora onto USB stick that should have 5.11 to see if its a kernel thing or Ubuntu thing. I'm seeing several people reporting that 5.11-37 breaks things for Intel video but rolling back to 5.8 resulted in a broken state where the trackpad did not function.01:16
Gabriel-xu-irc22I flashed to sda instead of sdb01:16
Gabriel-xu-irc22thats why it went to my main partition01:17
Gabriel-xu-irc22im stupid01:17
thunderysteakI was running on 5.11-27 fine for months with 20.04.2 but the moment I updated to 20.04.3 not even that kernel works.01:17

culobuloi have a partition which has unallocated space within it, how can i clone this partition to another disk without having unallocated space in it?15:39
EriC^^culobulo: you could clone it, then resize the fs and partition15:57
EriC^^or if you want to spare the transfer of the free space, you'd have to resize the fs first, then modify the partition size and then clone, but you should have backups in case it goes wrong, alternatively you could just create a partition/fs on the new hdd and rsync the data over15:58
jhertzHi, I am running 16.04.2 and need to upate my root certificates to get the new Lets Encrypt root CA. How do I do that?15:59
EriC^^jhertz: "sudo certbot renew" should do it16:00
ograjhertz, 16.04 is EOL, to get access to the ESM package updates you need to use Ubuntu Advantage https://ubuntu.com/advantage16:02
ogra(ca-certificates got updated last week there)16:02
jhertzEriC^^: Thanks but that just updates the certificates for the pages I run, not the root certs.16:04
jhertzogra: Thanks, and I assume there are no way around that as short term solution?16:05
ogra...also note that per the channel rules here we usually do not do support for EOL releases (or unreleased devel releases)16:05
leftyfbjhertz: upgrade to a supported release16:05
ograyeah, what leftyfb said ... either upgrade or use UA16:06
ksaksrunning 20.04.3lts apparently there once was a utility called BootUp Manager (BUM) - I assume it is no longer available. Does anyone know for sure?16:07
jhertzThank you orgra and leftyfb, I will have a look at upgrading16:08
ograksaks, that was only for sysV init and upstart ... ubuntu switched to systemd in 2015, even if it was still somewhere you could not use it ...16:11
ksaksyeah that's kind of what i thought ogra16:11
ksaksi'm having trouble getting one service to start before another16:11
leftyfbksaks: that would be a systemd issue16:12
ksaksI tried to change the order using this command $update-rc.d mmserver defaults 1916:14
ksaksbut it doesn't seem to work16:15
leftyfbksaks: update-rc.d is not how you manage services in modern ubuntu releases like 20.0416:15
ksakscan you please point me in the right direction?16:15
leftyfbksaks: look into the "After", "Before", "Requires" and "Wants" as part of the systemd .service files you are concerned about16:17
leftyfbksaks: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html16:17
EriC^^jhertz: as a side not, if you absolutely must use it today for whatever reason, you could use old-releases.ubuntu.com as your apt server in case the upgrades are there, though be aware to upgrade the server and use it strictly as a one-day fix16:17
ksaksthanks16:17

microsHello.  can anyone speculate on why launching a custom service from a shell script which is launched from a systemctl unit (long story) i receive errno 24 (EMFILE, no more files) from mq_open() when opening the 7th queue?  I can swap the order pf #6 and #7 and the error is always the 7th queue.  I looked at ulimits with no luck.  Everything is16:40
microsunlimited.  When i launch the same shell script from the command line, the service starts fine.  In both cases, im testing as root.  Thoughts?  Thanks.16:40
culobuloEriC^^, I cloned that partition using gnome-disks utility making a img file out of it, but when i restored it to other partition somehow the disk ended up having all the unallocated space again16:43
culobuloEriC^^, what i am facing is basically some ntfs windows problem, but the real problem is i dont have windows now, idk how to chkdsk fix it16:43
EriC^^culobulo: are you able to mount the fs?16:44
culobuloi want to know if there is some other way to get rid of unallocated space from within the partition, can i just select all copy everything to some external HDD and copy it back again once i format partition?16:44
culobuloEriC^^, Yes16:44
culobuloEriC^^, https://askubuntu.com/questions/637758/unallocated-space-within-partition16:45
culobulothis is what i am facing16:45
culobuloi want to know what is best way to copy whole partition minus unallocated space to some external HDD and then reformat that partition clean to ext4 or something and copy back from external HDD16:46
microsunsure, sorry16:46
culobuloup till now i have googled, and found dd, rsync and gnome-disks utility solution. I tried gnome-disks utility to create partition image file. but the problem is that the disk image has unallocated space within it, so when i restore it back to partition whole unallocated space fiasco happens again16:47
EriC^^culobulo: so basically you just want the files and to get rid of the unallocated space16:47
culobuloEriC^^, yes most likely,16:48
culobuloEriC^^, i use to share that partition(ntfs) with my ubuntu, i just have some soft links from my ~/home to that partition16:48
culobuloEriC^^, I want to know what is the best way to recover unallocated space from that ntfs partition16:49
EriC^^gotcha16:49
culobuloI read somewhere that i need to use windows disk to fix partition with chkdsk, but i want to really avoid this solution16:49
EriC^^culobulo: i think what you can do is figure out the fs size, then use dd to copy the partition to the new disk/partition table, but using a little bigger size for dd16:52
culobuloEriC^^, i have read that using dd is dangerous, so i want to know if i can use rsync instead to copy everything from that partition to my external hdd16:52
EriC^^like if the fs size is 10G, use dd... bs=11M count=1000 that should copy the first 11GB, then from there you can fix stuff16:53
culobuloEriC^^, I really want to avoid messing up with partition table etc things16:53
EriC^^culobulo: sure, rsync will work as well, even better and easier16:53
culobuloEriC^^, will using rsync can break my softlinks?16:54
EriC^^it shouldn't no, it really depends on what the soft links were (if they had for instance the fs uuid)16:55
EriC^^try "ls -l /path/to/link" it should show you what it uses16:55
culobuloEriC^^, one of such ls -l leads to this result repos -> /mnt/hddstorage/repos16:56
culobuloEriC^^, does this mean, its safe to rsync?16:56
EriC^^looks good, as long as you mount it the same the links should work16:56
culobulomy first idea was to rsync whole partition to some folder in my external HDD and then rsync it back after i fix my partition up16:57
EriC^^that works too, it's just a data partition right, no OS?16:57
culobuloEriC^^, can you help me with correct switch to use with rsync , i google and got this sudo rsync -ahPHAXx16:57
culobuloEriC^^, yeah, nothing but a partition with data16:58
EriC^^culobulo: that looks good17:02
EriC^^culobulo: maybe add -v as well17:04
culobuloEriC^^, thats for progress bar right?17:04
culobuloyeah that might be helpful17:05
EriC^^yeah more verbosity17:09
jhutchinsculobulo: There is almost never a reason to use any switches besides -azv18:09
jhutchinsculobulo: z only if your CPU is faster than your connection between source & target.18:09
jhutchinsculobulo: progress is --progress, -v just lists the files as they transfer.18:10

rambleba1plus nikolam, if that is the case, than it might not have been a simple apache updage but an OS upgrade20:00
FridgeBusI have the same thing happen if I connect through wifi20:00
rambleba1just an FYI FridgeBus is a bot already banned on #linux20:00
FridgeBusOh ok. Thanks.20:00
rambleba1linsux, I wanted to look into that matter, I read some time ago that it might, but my personal experience is that i tis not possible because of a difference in underlying protocols, you will have to resolve to old fashion routing via iptables i guess20:02
linsuxrambleba1, how did vmware do this in windows?20:02
rambleba1hell if I know does this look like a #windows channel to you? and if you are talking about the Linux guest, well the guest is unaware of the routing20:03
rambleba1linsux, your computer hands a packet to the router and does not care what the router does with it either same principle applies to briding or routing internally20:04

linsuxis there a workaround to it20:05
rambleba1to what routing?20:09
FridgeBusThe networking, when I use the wireless, the ip changes. When I use the wire, it doesn't change. I've also tried to connect to a different wifi network.20:09
rambleba1linsux, yeah use a wired connection and bridge the eth0 device instead of wifi20:09
jcbjoe2021How do you free up space from the command line?20:15
rambleba1jcbjoe2021 memory or fs?20:19
jcbjoe2021rambleba1: fs20:23
rambleba1jcbjoe2021,are we talking about caches, temp-directory, or just storage space, what filesystem are you using?20:25
rambleba1because the easiest way to free up space is to delete files on the drive, but you probably wanna keep those huh?20:25
rambleba1some FS have compression-features,20:26
rambleba1some files/folders you can archive and only extract as you need them20:26
rambleba1complex matter TBH20:26
linsuxrambleba1, i use vmware player to create a vm. It has bridge network20:29
rambleba1let me guess linsux, the host is windows?20:30
linsuxubuntu20:30
rambleba1ah ok, because previously you were talking about windows with VMware, never mind my banter then. If you bridge it, it should work as long as the bridge network is up an drunning ok20:31
rambleba1I don't know VMWare though20:31
tomreynjcbjoe2021: is there a specific reason why you want to free space now, or is it just a general matter?20:33
rfmlinsux, don't know about vmware, but virtualbox has a special kernel driver to do the bridging. It has special code for making bridging to wifi work (it has to fiddle with the MAC addresses)20:34

jcbjoe2021tomreyn: just want to know how20:42
EriC^^jcbjoe2021: you remove files, rm -r /path/to/dir or rm /path/to/file20:44
tomreynjcbjoe2021: you should not just delete files outside your home directory, though, normally.20:47
tomreynjcbjoe2021: uninstalling packages can help, if you're trying to save space on the file system those ar einstalled on20:48
rfmjcbjoe2021, and running "sudo du -hx /root/of/filesystem | sort =hr >/tmp/du" will show you where the space is being used so you know where to concentrate20:51
jcbjoe2021Thanks rfm20:55

Guest96i recently bought a logitech m100 for an ubuntu pc. the usb 3 port works fine but the mouse wont work. it works on other devices w/ a usb 3 port. lsusb doesnt show anything related to the mouse either22:24
Guest96can someone help pls22:25
luiserebiiHello, I'm looking for help with setting up a Canon Pixma MX410 printer. I have downloaded and attempted to install drivers from the Canon webpage, but I run into the error output in the pastebin. When I try to install the required dependencies, I see that they have probably been obseleted. Am I sunk? https://pastebin.com/ewv8t5pT22:30

C0nundrumHello22:31
jcbjoe2021rfm: that command isn’t working22:31
C0nundrumI imported a lvm partition from an old system but it's only showing the kernel files, not the normal disk files. Is there a way to recover it ?22:31
Guest96is anyone there22:33
jcbjoe2021rfm: it’s -hr22:38
Guest96i recently bought a logitech m100 for an ubuntu pc. the usb 3 port works fine but the mouse wont work. it works on other devices w/ a usb 3 port. lsusb doesnt show anything related to the mouse either22:38
tomreynGuest96: maybe the mouse is just broken? have you tried it on a different computer?22:47
Guest96tomreyn yes and it works22:48
tomreynGuest96: unplug the mouse, run   journalctl -f    in a terminal window, then plug the mouse22:49
tomreynsee what's what's being logged when you do22:49
tomreynpress ctrl-c to stop the log output22:50
tomreynGuest96: also, which ubuntu version and kernel version is this?   lsb_release -ds; cat /proc/version*22:51
Guest96ubuntu 21.04 w/ latest kernel22:52
Guest96journalctl -f shows normal stuff22:53
tomreynfeel free to share what's logged about the mouse, if anything, on a pastebin22:53
Guest96nothing is shown about the mouse22:56
tomreynC0nundrum: what you're describing sounds like you only have available what was on a (separate) /boot file system. you'll need to also enable the other file systems.22:56
tomreynGuest96: disconnect any other usb devices, including docking stations and any devices containing a USB hub, and try again on the same usb port. if this still doesn't log anything, try connecting the mouse to a usb-2 port instead.22:58
tomreynwhich computer is this?22:58
Guest96a custom-built pc w/ 5 usb 3 ports and 3 usb 2 ports.22:59
tomreynmaybe it lacks current for powering a lot of usb devices?23:00
tomreynis the power supply cable for the usb3 hub attached to the mainboard?23:01
Guest96yeah23:03

luiserebiiJust wanted to report back and say I fixed my issue by following the commands in this article: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2018/10/canon-ij-printer-scangear-mp-drivers-ubuntu-18-04-18-10/23:18
tomreynGuest96: probably a matter of insufficient power supply then23:18
Guest96tomreyn: probably23:18
toddcusb has a bandwith limit if you have a lot of devices plugged in23:19
