[00:01] Yes [00:05] xu-irc22w: maybe paste your command and the error to https://paste.debian.net/ and give us the link to the paste? [00:07] paste.debian.net/1214817 [00:09] xu-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 want [00:09] I 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) [00:13] sarnold: ill try that [00:13] tomreyn https://termbin.com/af4x [00:16] sarnold: wimtools worked, thank you [00:16] xu-irc22w: woot! :) [00:20] ugh I forgot my root password [00:20] not good [00:21] you probably don't have one, ubuntu doesn't set one by default; ubuntu prefers sudo [00:21] lemme try just pressing enter [00:22] nope [00:27] Try the one you used to login to your desktop with [00:29] genii: I had no root password, I tried setting one with `sudo passwd root` which wiorked [00:30] .. [00:30] !root [00:30] Do 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.

[01:04] it seemed like i fixed everything in the live cd [01:08] For 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 LTS [01:10] thunderysteak: there's instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack on how to roll back to the original release kernel rather than the HWE kernels [01:16] sarnold: 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] I flashed to sda instead of sdb [01:17] thats why it went to my main partition [01:17] im stupid [01:17] I 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.

[15:57] culobulo: you could clone it, then resize the fs and partition [15:58] 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 over [15:59] Hi, 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? [16:00] jhertz: "sudo certbot renew" should do it [16:02] jhertz, 16.04 is EOL, to get access to the ESM package updates you need to use Ubuntu Advantage https://ubuntu.com/advantage [16:02] (ca-certificates got updated last week there) [16:04] EriC^^: Thanks but that just updates the certificates for the pages I run, not the root certs. [16:05] ogra: Thanks, and I assume there are no way around that as short term solution? [16:05] ...also note that per the channel rules here we usually do not do support for EOL releases (or unreleased devel releases) [16:05] jhertz: upgrade to a supported release [16:06] yeah, what leftyfb said ... either upgrade or use UA [16:07] running 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? [16:08] Thank you orgra and leftyfb, I will have a look at upgrading [16:11] ksaks, 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] yeah that's kind of what i thought ogra [16:11] i'm having trouble getting one service to start before another [16:12] ksaks: that would be a systemd issue [16:14] I tried to change the order using this command $update-rc.d mmserver defaults 19 [16:15] but it doesn't seem to work [16:15] ksaks: update-rc.d is not how you manage services in modern ubuntu releases like 20.04 [16:15] can you please point me in the right direction? [16:17] ksaks: look into the "After", "Before", "Requires" and "Wants" as part of the systemd .service files you are concerned about [16:17] ksaks: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html [16:17] 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 fix [16:17] thanks [16:18] ksaks: https://serverfault.com/a/812589 [16:18] jhertz: as your system would be vulnerable and out of date [16:20] thanks again leftyfb [16:30] Hi I want install windows 11 but unable to load boot menu [16:40] Hello. 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 is [16:40] unlimited. When i launch the same shell script from the command line, the service starts fine. In both cases, im testing as root. Thoughts? Thanks. [16:43] EriC^^, 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 again [16:43] EriC^^, 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 it [16:44] culobulo: are you able to mount the fs? [16:44] i 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] EriC^^, Yes [16:45] EriC^^, https://askubuntu.com/questions/637758/unallocated-space-within-partition [16:45] this is what i am facing [16:46] i 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 HDD [16:46] unsure, sorry [16:47] up 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 again [16:47] culobulo: so basically you just want the files and to get rid of the unallocated space [16:48] EriC^^, yes most likely, [16:48] EriC^^, i use to share that partition(ntfs) with my ubuntu, i just have some soft links from my ~/home to that partition [16:49] EriC^^, I want to know what is the best way to recover unallocated space from that ntfs partition [16:49] gotcha [16:49] I read somewhere that i need to use windows disk to fix partition with chkdsk, but i want to really avoid this solution [16:52] 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 dd [16:52] EriC^^, 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 hdd [16:53] 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 stuff [16:53] EriC^^, I really want to avoid messing up with partition table etc things [16:53] culobulo: sure, rsync will work as well, even better and easier [16:54] EriC^^, will using rsync can break my softlinks? [16:55] it shouldn't no, it really depends on what the soft links were (if they had for instance the fs uuid) [16:55] try "ls -l /path/to/link" it should show you what it uses [16:56] EriC^^, one of such ls -l leads to this result repos -> /mnt/hddstorage/repos [16:56] EriC^^, does this mean, its safe to rsync? [16:56] looks good, as long as you mount it the same the links should work [16:57] my first idea was to rsync whole partition to some folder in my external HDD and then rsync it back after i fix my partition up [16:57] that works too, it's just a data partition right, no OS? [16:57] EriC^^, can you help me with correct switch to use with rsync , i google and got this sudo rsync -ahPHAXx [16:58] EriC^^, yeah, nothing but a partition with data [17:02] culobulo: that looks good [17:04] culobulo: maybe add -v as well [17:04] EriC^^, thats for progress bar right? [17:05] yeah that might be helpful [17:09] yeah more verbosity [18:09] culobulo: There is almost never a reason to use any switches besides -azv [18:09] culobulo: z only if your CPU is faster than your connection between source & target. [18:10] culobulo: progress is --progress, -v just lists the files as they transfer. === jeddo_ is now known as jeddo === xenial is now known as Guest8927 === keypushe- is now known as keypusher === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy [19:42] My Ubuntu 20.04 worked fine, serving a virtual web site on apache2 and now after some update 2 days ago it stopped serving virtual site [19:43] It like can not access something on port 3000 on 127.0.0.1 dunno what is that [19:44] nikolam, we need more information, what is supposed to run on port 3000? what is your setup reverse proxy present, database, because apache2 usually serves port 80 and 443 [19:45] so s.th. is amiss here.

[19:50] nikolam, good news is, that the problem is not with your apache [19:51] the logs only contain warnings === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy [19:51] soo my best bet is that whatever was running on localhost:3000 is not running and that is what served the websites with the virtual-hosts [19:52] so put that application(probably nodejs as you mentioned) in a service and have it run on every startup and be happy [19:56] it resetted itself to using some older version od node.js and doesn't see newer installed, after apache2 update.

Does anyone know why I might not be able to connect to my router after a fresh reboot on my Ubuntu 16.04 system? I don't have any security on my router so it shouldn't matter, but I'll use it to test anyways. [20:00] plus nikolam, if that is the case, than it might not have been a simple apache updage but an OS upgrade [20:00] I have the same thing happen if I connect through wifi [20:00] just an FYI FridgeBus is a bot already banned on #linux [20:00] Oh ok. Thanks. [20:02] linsux, 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 guess [20:02] rambleba1, how did vmware do this in windows? [20:03] hell 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 routing [20:04] linsux, 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 internally === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy [20:05] is there a workaround to it [20:09] to what routing? [20:09] The 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] linsux, yeah use a wired connection and bridge the eth0 device instead of wifi [20:15] How do you free up space from the command line? [20:19] jcbjoe2021 memory or fs? [20:23] rambleba1: fs [20:25] jcbjoe2021,are we talking about caches, temp-directory, or just storage space, what filesystem are you using? [20:25] because the easiest way to free up space is to delete files on the drive, but you probably wanna keep those huh? [20:26] some FS have compression-features, [20:26] some files/folders you can archive and only extract as you need them [20:26] complex matter TBH [20:29] rambleba1, i use vmware player to create a vm. It has bridge network [20:30] let me guess linsux, the host is windows? [20:30] ubuntu [20:31] ah 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 ok [20:31] I don't know VMWare though [20:33] jcbjoe2021: is there a specific reason why you want to free space now, or is it just a general matter? [20:34] linsux, 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) === scoobydoob is now known as scoobydoo [20:42] tomreyn: just want to know how [20:44] jcbjoe2021: you remove files, rm -r /path/to/dir or rm /path/to/file [20:47] jcbjoe2021: you should not just delete files outside your home directory, though, normally. [20:48] jcbjoe2021: uninstalling packages can help, if you're trying to save space on the file system those ar einstalled on [20:51] jcbjoe2021, 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 concentrate [20:55] Thanks rfm [21:34] hello all [22:24] i 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 either [22:25] can someone help pls [22:30] Hello, 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/ewv8t5pT [22:30] i 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 either [22:31] Hello [22:31] rfm: that command isn’t working [22:31] I 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 ? [22:33] is anyone there [22:38] rfm: it’s -hr [22:38] i 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 either [22:47] Guest96: maybe the mouse is just broken? have you tried it on a different computer? [22:48] tomreyn yes and it works [22:49] Guest96: unplug the mouse, run journalctl -f in a terminal window, then plug the mouse [22:49] see what's what's being logged when you do [22:50] press ctrl-c to stop the log output [22:51] Guest96: also, which ubuntu version and kernel version is this? lsb_release -ds; cat /proc/version* [22:52] ubuntu 21.04 w/ latest kernel [22:53] journalctl -f shows normal stuff [22:53] feel free to share what's logged about the mouse, if anything, on a pastebin [22:56] nothing is shown about the mouse [22:56] C0nundrum: 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. [22:58] Guest96: 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] which computer is this? [22:59] a custom-built pc w/ 5 usb 3 ports and 3 usb 2 ports. [23:00] maybe it lacks current for powering a lot of usb devices? [23:01] is the power supply cable for the usb3 hub attached to the mainboard? [23:03] yeah === Linux^ is now known as Guest4833 [23:10] disconnected all devices and the mouse works now === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy [23:18] Just 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] Guest96: probably a matter of insufficient power supply then [23:18] tomreyn: probably [23:19] usb has a bandwith limit if you have a lot of devices plugged in === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy === not_phunyguy is now known as phunyguy
