[01:00] i used iptables-save. It gave some rules like this https://pastebin.com/HahdzRmV how do I replicate these if I clear iptables with the iptables command? [01:07] rowbots: I think there's an iptables-restore command that's supposed to run at boot === genii is now known as genii-core [02:41] save [03:09] i installed ubuntu server and got a terminal as expected. i connected over ssh and one day installed firefox since i needed it to click on a confirmation link. now when i use the machine itself (ie not ssh) it boots to a weird GUI that is not a full desktop [03:09] ram usage went up by about 700mb. how can i disable this and get back to terminal only? === MrMobius_ is now known as MrMobius [03:11] well there is apt remove * [03:11] idk [03:12] what do i remove though? all i did was install firefox and it apparently pulled down a bunch of other shit and thinks i want to use it in desktop mode now [03:13] firefox on a server, it needs a DE, sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target # is your fix [03:14] DE? [03:14] google what DE means.. [03:15] you might want to do research on graphical.target and multi-user.target too [03:30] I have two default Ubuntu 21.04 installs, with standard options during install on two different machines. And neither of them can upgrade to 21.10 because /boot is to small [03:30] even after cleaning old kernels like so: [03:31] sudo apt-get purge $(dpkg -l linux-{image,headers}-"[0-9]*" | awk '/ii/{print $2}' | grep -ve "$(uname -r | sed -r 's/-[a-z]+//')") [03:31] Does anybody have any suggestions how to get enough space for the upgrade? [03:32] sounds like you need to add more diskspace? [03:33] and/or check /var/log/ for unusual big logs [03:34] it only complains about not enough space in /boot [03:34] which is strange because the size is the one suggested by the ubuntu installer [03:34] standard ubuntu will install as one partition and a swapFILE, not a partition anymore [03:34] 457M 176M 247M 42% /boot [03:35] size by the installer, that depends on your free space.. 20 Gb is way low [03:35] ... 457? [03:35] oink [03:35] for the boot [03:35] this is what ubuntu 19.04 made [03:35] have been upgrading since then I suppose [03:36] as of 18.04 it is 1 partition, standard [03:36] wow have I been on ubuntu that long [03:36] it's possible ... haven't used windows in years maybe lost track of time [03:37] ah no no [03:37] I have encryption enabled (always) so [03:37] the boot is separate [03:38] if there is no free space before /boot, i would do a fresh install.. too much work [04:03] Hello! I made a mistake and I've chosen nvidia-460 driver for my Ubuntu 20.04 install. The computer boots up and I'm able to insert the password, however, after that (when the OS is supposed to start) the screen gets black. How can I get into the "safety mode" (or similar) of Ubuntu 20.04? I used the ESC key and I got into a "grub>" command line but when I insert failsafeX it says the command is unknown :\ [04:06] supremekai: From the grub boot menu select a recovery kernel. [04:06] How can I do so? [04:06] Can't we use the recovery mode at ubuntu 20.04? [04:11] can I use a bootable pendrive somehow to access the recovery mode? [04:11] 'cause I'm having issues with grub> I only have the command line (no options to load the kernel in recovery mode) [04:14] supremekai: Reboot the system and as soon as the bios splash screen clears spam the escape key to get grub's boot menu. ( if a EFI system). [04:15] it's a UEFI, I did that and I get the grub command line only :\ like "grub>_" [04:15] I don't have that usual option selector [04:18] supremekai: Out then of my skill set - like this there is more at fault than just the Nvidia driver :( [04:21] Bashing-om, thanks for the help :) I'll try to figure this thing out [04:24] supremekai: The desktop installer's grub has a boot option "install from 1st hard drive" - mught see here what results. [04:25] supremekai: Ouch ! that option is "Boot from first hard dtive" * [04:27] Bashing-om, I'm not very familiar with grub :\ I've seen some guides and videos about it and I can always find some options to select but in my case it goes directly to the grub command line [04:27] is there a way to load the kernel manually? [04:28] I'm disabling Secure Boot 'cause it was causing some issues when trying to do anything command wise at the grub> command line [04:28] I tried to use failsafeX [04:28] like: grub> failsafeX [04:28] but it says the command is unknown :\ I'm using ubuntu 20.04, but I'm not sure if there is some sort of a key, other than ESC, to get into the boot options namely for safe/recovery mode [04:29] supremekai: Yes - one can, [04:31] Bashing-om, I deactivated secure boot and now I have access to some options :P but I'm unsure about which one to use: Ubuntu with Linux 5.11.0.0-38-generic (safe mode); Ubuntu with Linux 5.11.0-37-generic (safe mode); Ubuntu with Linux 5.8.0-63-generic (safe mode) [04:31] Why so much options here? [04:31] supremekai: Do you KNOW which drive is the target and KNOW which partition "root" is ? or do we have to do a long discovery process ? [04:31] guess a long discovery process Bashing-om :P [04:31] I was able now to boot and get into those options [04:31] so, theoretically I may be able to access safe mode [04:32] supremekai: For each kernel installed there is a boot option. [04:32] I'm unsure which one should I get into: 5.11.0-38, 5.11.0-37 or 5.8.0-63 [04:32] shouldn't matter too much which kernel... [04:33] how come rwinner ? I would choose 5.11.0-38 just for being the supposedly latest one, right? [04:33] Or do we have all those kernels running at ubuntu 20.04? [04:34] supremekai: Only one kernel is running , you have the option of which one to boot. [04:34] I have 5.11.0-38 on my box [04:34] how can I find out which one is running? [04:34] Any command at grub available for such? [04:35] idk why do I have all those kernels for 20.04 [04:35] supremekai: terminal command ' uname -r ' will relate the booted kernel. [04:36] ty Bashing-om :D [04:36] yup, at the terminal it works [04:36] supremekai: Vut, will not have "booted" kernel until you boot one ! [04:36] It keeps old kernels in case something goes wrong... [04:36] but at grub it doesn't seem to :P [04:36] Bashing-om, true :P [04:37] I forgot all the old grub commands so can't help you there... :) [04:37] rwinner, thnks!! :) it must be the latest one (5.11.0-38) I guess.. Logically thinking it would be the latest [04:37] rwinner, yup :P screw the grub lulz [04:37] I have now access to the several options with safe mode [04:38] supremekai: Grub is very minimal - only has available what is truely needed to get a kerenl booted; and then the operating system takes control. [04:38] Bashing-om, thnks :) I never came across grub [04:38] But I mean.. I guess Ubuntu runs on a certain kernel right? Why would the older ones are available in the machine? [04:39] supremekai: All in the learning curve - was a time none of us had encountered grub either :P [04:39] I have this computer with Ubuntu 20.04 for like 2 - 3 months, are those kernel updates so frequent? [04:39] Bashing-om, no doubt :P I found it and I dismissed it, damn grub [04:42] supremekai: Linu\xs does not dictate how you use your machine - or what you can do with it - there is always a backup kernel in the event of problems. The system leaves what to do with old kernels up to you as to what you want to do. You remove them when it seems proper, for your use case. [04:44] Bashing-om, right on :) I was used to wind00z, but I guess nowadays it is more useful to get a distro like Ubuntu or so, 'cause it's UI/UX is similar to windows without windows' problems [04:44] !info linux-generic-hwe-20.04 focal [04:44] linux-generic-hwe-20.04 (5.11.0.38.42~20.04.17, focal): Complete Generic Linux kernel and headers.

[04:46] supremekai: Can not relate to Windows any longer - left was back in XP service pack 2 - never looked back since. [04:47] Bashing-om: back then, linux was a contact sport...brutal. [04:47] Bashing-om, wow! Old timer [04:47] that time I tried freebsd [04:48] at that time (windows xp time) I tried freebsd but it was too much command-line [04:48] rwinner: I came onto ubuntu from slackware server - ubuntu was a breath of fresh air :D [04:48] I find that Windows XP was the best windows so far as far as bugs and user independency was concerned [04:48] had to write your own xconfig files... lol. [04:50] supremekai: You booted into the install at this time ? ready to see what results with attempting to purge the Nvidia driver ? [04:53] Bashing-om, yup :) I'm taking this opportunity to clean, do dpkg and such.. [04:53] I'll root after doing so and follow this: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/ubuntu-20-04-boots-to-black-screen/184390 [04:53] I'm just trying to find out which one is the nvidia driver I should use :P 'cause the one that is in this example (460) was the one that screwed the syss [04:57] supremekai: The system will tell you what it recomemmend, terminal command 'sudo ubuntu-drivers list ' to install what it thinks best ' sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstal ' . [04:59] thnks ! :D [04:59] I will follow your tip Bashing-om ! :) [05:00] supremekai: sudo apt purge nvidia-* --- is the 1st step here . [05:02] supremekai: In your case ' sudo apt --purge autoremove nvidia-* ' might be the better course. [05:03] thnks! :) [05:03] I was thinking about it [05:03] I was about to install 460 [05:03] *470 [05:03] but I was about.. wait.. what about the one already installed?! :P [05:03] thnks [05:03] supremekai: correction ' sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' (left off that final 'l' ) [05:05] after purging I do the "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" right? [05:06] supremekai: Yep - and reboot then to see the effect. [05:06] Do i need to do the steps at the resolution link I sent? Like sudo apt install nvidia-prime, sudo prime-select nvidia, sudo apt install nvidia-driver-460, sudo modprobe nvidia, sudo nvidia-smi -pm 1, etc.? [05:07] supremekai: Nope - the system will take care of all that :) [05:07] Couldn't connect to zsys daemon: connection error: desc = "trransport: error while dialing dial unix /run/rsysd.sock: connect: connection refused" [05:08] supremekai: No internet connection - check: ' ping -c3 ubuntu.com '. [05:10] 3 transmitted 3 received [05:10] seems ok [05:10] strange :| [05:10] well, let's go :P [05:10] now I'll autoinstall [05:10] supremekai: ' [05:10] supremekai: ' sudo apt update ' runs ? [05:12] Bashing-om, it is running the ' sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall ' so I guess it is connected to the internet right? [05:12] Or the sudo apt update is not kind of a test for internet connect? (I mean, do u want to test something else with that?) [05:13] it is running sudo apt update :) [05:14] supremekai: No idea presently about "Couldn't connect to zsys daemon" :( while here may as well run to ' sudo apt upgrade ' to get the system up2date . [05:21] Bashing-om, yup :) I did it and it said everything was updated [05:21] but man... I got back to it and after the password input I got the black screen again... [05:22] I was about to throw this laptop out of the window but... then I had an idea! I connected the HDMI to another screen and it is working [05:22] this is strange [05:22] the laptop screen works till the login [05:22] after the login the HDMI screen is on [05:22] supremekai: Great! .. and you have also ran ' the autoinstall command ? ready now to reboot and see the effect ? [05:22] yup [05:23] supremekai: K, reboot then as we see what you have :D [05:23] I did it already but the laptop screen after login keeps black [05:23] I got an HDMI connected to an external screen [05:23] and it is at the OS [05:24] this is strange as f*ck [05:24] I tried to change the type of screen display (extended, duplicated, etc.) but when I click the key of the keyboard associated to it [05:24] it does not work :\ [05:24] I go to displays and I only get the external display [05:24] supremekai: Yeah is very strange - but again, out of my skill set to know what is taking place here. [05:25] supremekai: what shows ' sudo lshw -C display ' ? [05:27] https://privnote.com/qmqiRW81#fgafNBoAa [05:28] can I just use the xorg? any way to reset the xorg.conf to default? [05:29] supremekai: Ouch ! that says you have Intell graphics - what makes you think Nvidia plays into this ? to see what the kernel see run: lspci -k | grep -iEA5 'vga|3d' - for the hardware. [05:47] Bashing-om, solved!! :D [05:47] I used xorg and followed this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/159663/how-to-reset-the-xorg-xserver [05:48] and of course Bashing-om, I followed your lead!! You are the boss 8-) [05:48] Thank you very much!! I appreciate it! [05:51] supremekai: Great ! outaa here then :D be aware following old guides is a hazard as we are a fast moving operating system. Xorg has been depreciated for the longest in favour of DKMS ( dynamic kernel mode setting). [05:55] Thanks for the tip Bashing-om !! :D I will change to nvidia driver tomorrow, but today at least it is working :P [05:56] supremekai: Make sure that the kernel sees the Nvidia hardware ! before installing anything :D [06:43] Is ubuntu documentation incorrect? [06:44] if you are talking about the wiki then it can br [06:44] can be out of date [06:44] man o2cb says, "# service o2cb online" as example command, but 'service o2cb online isn't a command' since service only takes start/stop/restart etc. etc [06:45] neither is o2cb online a param or argument that works [06:45] install ocfs2-tools and see [06:45] look at man o2c [06:45] look at man o2cb [06:45] many of the ofcs2 commands documneted in the man pages don't actually exist or work on ubuntu at all.

[06:47] The manpage is either incorrect or I'm completely missing something. [06:48] did ubuntu do something to ocfs2? [06:48] your paste doesn't include the word service [06:49] Yes it does [06:49] First one is without second one is with, to illustrate the issue. [06:50] neither with or without 'service' (which is an ubuntu specific service manager thing) do these commands work for those binaries. [06:50] the first line says o2cb online [06:51] 12:47:03 am | stoned@server1:~$ service o2cb online [06:51] What does that say? [06:51] that says service but your paste https://bpa.st/GY4Q doesn't [06:52] Correct [06:52] Two different examples, two differnet outputs. [06:52] https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/en/man8/o2cb.8.html [06:52] https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/en/man7/o2cb.7.html [06:52] man 7 states, # service o2cb online [06:53] I gave you the output of that, which is: Usage: /etc/init.d/o2cb {start|stop|status|restart|try-restart|force-reload} [06:53] But according to the man page, the output should be different. [06:53] So I try without 'service' as well (ALSO) which I just told you, and that gives a completely diff outotu, and 'online' isn't a argument to that command. [06:54] Can you even help me? At all? [06:54] the copyright of that manpage is from 2011 so I'm guessing it is woefully out of date [06:54] ubuntu uses systemd now [06:55] back then it was using upstart [06:56] I'd guess you replace the word online with start [06:57] That doesn't help with anything. [06:59] can you paste the output of 'service 02cb start' please? [06:59] ocfs2 service won't run and listen on port 7777 so I can't get a cluster up [06:59] https://bpa.st/MGXQ [07:00] Active: active (exited). ss -tupln does not show any node listening on 7777 [07:00] Oct 26 06:38:08 server1 o2cb[6656]: Registering O2CB cluster "krypton": OK [07:00] It says registered.

[07:44] Does something like Apple Automator/Shortcuts or Mocrosoft Power Automate Desktop exist for Ubuntu 20.04? [07:48] Qetzlcoatl: #psychedelics [07:48] I say that because of your nickname. [07:49] Qetzlcoatl: what do those software do? [07:51] Hash: it do some typical thing on desktop on behalf of you [07:51] think of it like bash script but on desktop [07:53] it can interact with desktop apps and pipe one app output to another one input just like shell pipes but operating objects not text [07:59] Hi, is there an up-to-date guide somewhere on compiling and configuring a kernel for Focal Fossa? I basically just want to change the page size and keep everything else the same in my current config. [08:00] simple example task I can imagine right now - "open gnome terminal, open another tab in it using powershell as shell, cut motd from bash tab of it, start commandlet in powershell tab of it with motd from bash tab as commandlet parameter, wait for expected gui app opened and click OK button in it" [08:02] You mean like a desktop scripting thing? [08:03] Hash: Yes! [08:03] https://github.com/autokey/autokey is port of auto hot key I think [08:03] python3 based desktop automation [08:03] https://alternativeto.net/software/autohotkey/?platform=linux [08:04] Oh and xdotool [08:04] This tool lets you simulate keyboard input and mouse activity, move and resize windows, etc. It does this using X11's XTEST extension and other Xlib functions. === icey_ is now known as icey [08:04] No idea if any of this helps [08:05] Hash: Thnx!

I've tried `set root=cd0; chainloader /EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI`. But chainloader just stalls. Not sure how to proceed [09:18] ivo === NET_maniak_ is now known as ivo === ivo is now known as ivo_ [09:21] hi, can someone tell me how to get my ca cert added to the keystore? i added it to /usr/share/local/ca-certificates and extra as well as under /usr/share/ca-certificates. the only thing that happens is that a symlink is created under /etc/ssl/certs and that's about it, if i connect to my devices that have certs issued by this ca, they aren't trusted [09:22] i'm pretty sure i have done everything right. i tried both pem format as well as crt but that doesn't seem to have much of an effect, other than an actual crt is being rejected as it can't be read [09:25] hi all o/ - question: does cron.daily only run at the exact specified time as set in crontab (iaw 6:25 am) or will cron run the cron.daily at least one time after you booted the PC the next day even though 6:25 am has passed ? === imperador is now known as killall [09:29] Hello [09:39] vuurdraak: I think cron just goes at the times you specify, but anacron provides the kind of thing you suggest - i.e. catches from when the machine is down [09:40] ihu: you're installing the CA certificate on every client? [09:41] pr100, mmm that sounds bad :') so it would never run any scripts that are put in there, i can't find anything online about it [09:42] like I say, if you have a machine that's not up 24/7 then anacron porbably does what you want [09:43] https://linux.die.net/man/8/anacron [09:43] pr100, it seems there are also scripts in there that Ubuntu created it self, so they would basicly never run [09:43] i take a look === sprout is now known as egelbot [09:53] pr100, this is interesting, it seems etc/anacrontab has enteries that run the scripts in cron.daily cron.weekly & cron.monthly , so i am asuming that if you dump a shell script in any of these directories anacron will make them run even if you not run 24h a day [09:54] yeah, that's the idea, although I dunno about the specific details === egelbot is now known as sprout [09:57] pr100, i can see with: grep -i anacron /var/log/syslog -> anacron[1125]: Job `cron.daily' terminated -> anacron[1125]: Normal exit (1 job run) , i am assuming it has run the cron.daily jobs, and 1 job means executing the "1 5 cron.daily run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily" [09:58] i just double check tomorrow if my new added script has run after boot :) thanks for the help === pah is now known as pa === Erisa41 is now known as Erisa4 [10:40] <[J]oules> trying to connect to ubuntu 18.04.4 using windows 7 mstsc and all it does is show authentication error 0x80004005.

[11:57] Hi, I'm experiencing some problems with gdm3. Whenever I reboot and type in my password it takes approx 2 mins to show the desktop. Do you want me to show some lines from journalct? [12:09] hi, is there a rss reader that can be configred to push notifications to desktop? [12:15] Recently my trusty Dell M3800 of 6 years developed a problem. It was following the last Ubuntu software update I did. The wifi randomly drops out and requires reboot. Seems a well-trodden path if you google "failed to wake NIC for hcmd" and "intel 7260", with little in the way of solutions. I am just wondering if it's possible that the update destroyed it, or it was a coincidentally-timed hardware failure. I notice that it still has this problem after [12:15] several fresh installs, and the problem also occurs on the Win10 partition. Could it be possible that the Ubuntu update installed new bad firmware on the wifi chip? Or is it a physical failure? [12:20] sal9000_: you could type "tail /var/log/apt/history.log" and have a look at the last update you did to see what packages it updated, maybe nothing related to wifi [12:21] EriC^^: Unfortunately I have formatted and reinstalled OSs several times since then, so I cannot go back and check this [12:34] guys, whenever I reboot and try to login it takes 2 mins to go to the desktop. Yesterday I messed a bit with python2 and gtk in order to install nmap, maybe the two things are related. I also tried to switch from gdm3 to lightdm but nothing changed.

[15:33] gebbione, nope, 20.04.x. is [15:34] ok not sure how different that would be, i was omitting the minor version but indeed how to reproduce that indeed it is the problem?

I tried adding and setting a new mode via xrandr as described here (https://askubuntu.com/questions/189246/how-set-my-monitor-resolution) but with the last command, I get the error message 'xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed'. the answer on this question advices to supply the crtc number to [16:23] xrandr https://askubuntu.com/questions/136139/xrandr-configure-crtc-0-failed-when-trying-to-change-resolution-on-external-m. when I do this, I get the same error message. what can I do here? [16:46] hello [16:49] I figured out my problem above. the problem was that the laptop didn't support the resolution via hdmi. i connected the display via usb-c and now it runs at the native solution, although only at 55hz.

[22:56] gebbione: for sftp, I'd use sshfs, rsync, or scp [22:56] for plain stupid ftp, I'd use lftp [22:56] oerheks, not sure what benefit it would give. I just would like filezilla not to use keys unless explicitly mapped in the ssh config or configured in the client. I also dont see an ssh service [22:57] no clue there.. [22:58] matsman i guess you just use cli, i was hoping for a ux [22:59] cli has the best ux for me [22:59] gebbione: I guess trying googling for other GUI clients? [23:00] i tried others, some had even more problems of other kinds. thats why i was asking in ubuntu [23:01] gebbione: filezilla's not bad, historically [23:01] indeed, i have no problems with it in other OSs [23:02] not sure why it is forced to use the ssh keys on linux/ubuntu [23:02] if you use sshfs, for which there should be GUIs, then you can use your GUI file manager also [23:02] gebbione: ssh keys? [23:03] ssh keys request are server side.. [23:03] yes it goes to all the keys installed in ~/.ssh ... it tries to use them to login and it fails after 6 of them. I have lots of keys... cannot move them all the times just to use filezilla [23:09] matsaman, this is what filezilla does ... https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/G366cBmZqm/ [23:12] https://askubuntu.com/questions/564419/filezilla-error-pageant-failed-to-answer-challenge/585164#585164 [23:12] maybe your answer too [23:17] not the error i have, the auth fails in 6 attempts [23:17] see the logs [23:17] but ultimately filezilla does not give an option to change this [23:17] :/ [23:21] using export SSH_AUTH_SOCK="" && filezilla works ... such an annoying thing though [23:23] file a bugreport? [23:31] Is there any way to set grub boot options like nomodeset in preseed or autoinstall? [23:42] just tried editing a desktop file, for the launchers.
