| Aterfax | True | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| Aterfax | The issue I have with it really relates to when you are getting blocked due to perms on things like snap, docker, lxc the diagnosis is more difficult | 00:05 |
| Aterfax | so a new Ubuntu user may have no idea about snap perms, if it doesn't get set properly it is justbroken | 00:06 |
| oerheks | 21.10 gives a permission tab in settings, i found out | 00:06 |
| Aterfax | The UX on linux still leaving much to be desired for a new user. But I don't personally care about it since I spend 8 hours a day on a supercomputer running Centos | 00:06 |
| oerheks | neat | 00:07 |
| Aterfax | Yeah iirc 21.10 I can toggle things as needed | 00:07 |
| Aterfax | But snap permissions aren't the most obvious of things | 00:07 |
| Aterfax | Better than asking a new user to go ahead and use SELinux though | 00:07 |
| lpv | Yeah true, using ubuntu right now cause it seems like the most straight-forward solution for a new comer it is indeed a bit odd | 00:09 |
| Aterfax | Pop might be easier but I haven't used it? | 00:09 |
| lpv | oh my first install was actually pop. I just went for ubuntu after my win11 update broke it and it couldn't tell me why using 'lp' as username wouldn't install the thing xD | 00:10 |
| lpv | (it's a system reserved name in case you didn't know :p) | 00:11 |
| Aterfax | Printing related iirc | 00:12 |
| Aterfax | Try making a folder called CON in windows | 00:13 |
| lpv | lmao, will do that | 00:13 |
| Aterfax | No ya won't ;) | 00:13 |
| lpv | well it's not going to explode, is it? :p | 00:14 |
| lpv | bsod wouldn't be too weird heh | 00:14 |
| Aterfax | It won't let you do it | 00:17 |
| Aterfax | Nor a folder called NUL | 00:18 |
| lpv | well glad I didn't stumble on that | 00:21 |
| Aterfax | Lots of edge cases like that due to how things were made in the erly computing days | 00:22 |

| webchat21 | i have a quick question, i haven't used ubuntu in ages, i used to be able to create quick rc.d scripts to run oneliners at boot | 08:57 |
| webchat21 | can someone point me in the direction to do this with systemd? it seems like every time i try a guide i find online it fails.... | 08:58 |
| webchat21 | like is there a basic systemd script example somewhere in the ubuntu docs i can't find? | 08:58 |
| SteelRose | webchat21: https://www.shellhacks.com/systemd-service-file-example/ or Google | 09:00 |

| KBar | Creating one will most likely satisfy your need. | 09:01 |
| webchat21 | SteelRose KBar thanks i'll have a peek | 09:01 |
| webchat21 | ya i just want to run a oneliner | 09:01 |
| webchat21 | is there a way to run it as a specific user at boot? | 09:02 |
| KBar | I believe there is. | 09:02 |
| webchat21 | ahh i think i found it | 09:03 |
| webchat21 | in the [service] section its just user= and group= | 09:03 |
| KBar | systemd.service(5); systemd.unit(5) | 09:03 |
| KBar | webchat you can create a oneshot service. Look for "Example 3. Oneshot service" in systemd.service(5). | 09:07 |
| KBar | Exactly what you need. | 09:07 |
| KBar | webchat21 | 09:08 |

| webchat21 | same old shit | 09:13 |
| webchat21 | i think it's a problem with my script | 09:14 |
| webchat21 | well not my script, but the way i'm trying to run it | 09:14 |
| webchat21 | i +x'd it, it runs fine if i execute it as the user, by /usr/bin/myscript | 09:15 |
| webchat21 | it has a proper she-bang, but i need to cd to a dir first to run the one-liner, which i think is messing it up when run from systemd | 09:15 |
| webchat21 | the script is 3 lines........#!/bin/bash | 09:16 |
| webchat21 | cd /home/rustserver/rust | 09:16 |
| webchat21 | umod launch -v logfile output.log | 09:16 |
| webchat21 | which is fine if run as /usr/bin/rust-start......but trying to get the systemd service to run that script fails | 09:17 |

| webchat21 | geirha umod is a command specific to the rustserver user....it isn't a global env variable | 10:08 |
| webchat21 | that's why i need to run it in /home/rustserver/rust and as the rustserver user | 10:08 |
| geirha | type will tell where it's located, so that you can add it to the PATH variable systemd uses | 10:09 |
| KBar | I'd also suggest adding the `-a` option. | 10:10 |
| KBar | To list all information. | 10:10 |
| webchat21 | geirha umod is /home/rustserver/.dotnet/tools/umod | 10:10 |
| webchat21 | i guess i could pass the full path to the binary in my script too | 10:10 |
| KBar | +1 | 10:10 |
| webchat21 | KBar thanks for the reminder of && :P | 10:11 |
| geirha | right, so just prepend that dir to PATH | 10:11 |
| KBar | Yep. Since it's not in $HOME/bin or $HOME/.local/bin | 10:11 |
| KBar | It won't get picked up | 10:11 |
| KBar | just add the path manually PATH='/home/rustserver/.dotnet/tools:$PATH' | 10:13 |
| webchat21 | getting closer | 10:17 |
| webchat21 | it's half starting, but failing on some missing dotnot env vars | 10:17 |
| webchat21 | how can i confirm this is being run as the rustserver user? | 10:17 |
| webchat21 | under type=oneshot ihave User=rustserver | 10:18 |
| webchat21 | but nowhere in the systmctl status output does it say anything about running as that actual user | 10:18 |
| SteelRose | webchat21: ps -ef | grep youprocess | grep rustserver | 10:24 |
| geirha | it should run as the right user, but it won't read .bashrc or .profile, so if you set those env vars there, they won't be set when systemd runs it | 10:26 |

| Tamburino | Hello all, i want to buy a new Computer but it is hard to figure out if all parts runs natively from scratch without fancy stuff or proprietary drivers. Could anyone help me please? Any experience with the Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master Mainboard? | 12:55 |
| oerheks | you might want to visit #hardware for that? | 12:59 |
| Tamburino | Thanks | 12:59 |
| oerheks | basicly, all you need is to check out the videocard/gpu, for now AMD is supported fine, Nvidia we are still waiting for drivers that work with wayland. | 13:00 |
| oerheks | motherboards are practically all supported, also cpu's | 13:00 |
| Tamburino | and what about every tiny chipset on the board? like ethernet from realtek, the sound? wifi onboard? fan and temperature i/o chipsets? | 13:00 |
| oerheks | wifi could be your only concern, check out https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/ | 13:01 |
| Tamburino | And i read that on some boards (most) linux is not able to read fan speed, temperature from sensors and so on? | 13:02 |
| oerheks | no, you read that wrong. | 13:02 |
| jkc | A word of warning, you're not likely to get away from proprietary drivers in some cases, most notably GPUs. | 13:03 |
| jkc | Unless advancements have been made in the open-source replacements (e.g. nouveau) that I am unaware of, which is distinctly possible. | 13:03 |
| Tamburino | That is why i ask here, i don't want to use any proprietary driver. and for the gpu i want to use amd with the open source driver | 13:04 |
| jkc | I don't know how well AMD GPUs work with the open source drivers, I've never tested. | 13:05 |
| oerheks | good choice, for now | 13:05 |
| oerheks | !amd | 13:05 |
| ubottu | Open drivers for AMD cards: amdgpu (cards >= GCN1.2 aka GCN 3rd gen), radeon (older cards). AMD has a closed driver named amdgpu-pro that supports the same cards as amdgpu, but it is generally unnecessary. FGLRX is not supported in any current Ubuntu version or in this channel. For info on GCN levels, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_graphics_processing_units | 13:05 |

| alkisg | hello21: Pop!_OS isn't supported here, you'll need to contact them or their community... | 18:21 |
| Gallomimia | that is quite odd, since you came in and said you run ubuntu 20.04 | 18:21 |
| orange1 | one time i ended up with trisquel boot screen going into pure os | 18:22 |
| orange1 | dont know how i did it | 18:23 |
| Gallomimia | my only suggestion at this point is to recover any important files from your ubuntu install and perform a clean install of either ubuntu 20.04 or 21.10 | 18:23 |
| Gallomimia | if it's *THAT* borked and no one knows how or why... just start over | 18:24 |
| hello21 | @Gallominia yes It's strange, for sure It's my mistake, but I don't know, how is is possible :-( I installed Ubuntu Desktop a long time ago from official install media. But for sure I was destroyed something. I'm going to fix it and install Ubuntu. Maybe the GRUB problem will be also fixed. THANKS A LOT @Gallominia, @alkisg, @oerkers, @ubottu for your help!!!! | 18:30 |
| alkisg | 👍️ | 18:31 |
| Gallomimia | for sure the fresh install will fix the grub | 18:31 |
| Gallomimia | remember. backups are your best friend | 18:31 |
| coz_ | ^^^^ | 18:31 |
| hello21 | backups and you :-) | 18:31 |
| Gallomimia | yeah. i need to start practicing what i preach | 18:31 |
| oerheks | if you did not have a backup already, your data is unimportant | 18:32 |

| Gallomimia | but... my saved games! | 18:32 |
| coz_ | ah oh ! | 18:33 |
| alkisg | You can just keep /home while installing... | 18:33 |
| * alkisg also moves /* to a /backup folder before installing, just in case he forgot some setting in /etc or so | 18:34 | |
| hello21 | :D problem is starting, when I'm making backup of backup of backup... :D thanks a lot again... | 18:34 |
| Gallomimia | lol backup of backup | 18:34 |
| Gallomimia | stop it's too real! | 18:34 |
| Gallomimia | "i'll just make a copy of this whole folder/drive and sort out what i need later" *5 years passes* repeat | 18:35 |
| d_rwin | how do i connect to router default gateway with wrong subnetting conf. gateway outside networks | 18:37 |
| Gallomimia | uh, what? | 18:38 |
| oerheks | put in the correct gateway? | 18:39 |
| Gallomimia | i'm pretty sure you need to either rephrase that question, or visit #networking because you're doing something very strange and usually impossible. is your gateway outside your network?? | 18:41 |

| merpnderp | I've got two new ubuntu production virtual servers that we're moving to from Windows. What's the best way to automate configuration and also deployment in the ubuntu world? We're looking at docker, just updating VM's and deploying them, or using config and deployment scripts. | 20:28 |
| tomreyn | merpnderp: right, that roughly sums up the common options. | 20:37 |

| stiv2k | Do I need raid if I use zfs? or does zfs take care of the redundancy for me? I'm wanting to setup a simple file server with a DELL desktop computer and a few hard disks | 23:52 |
| sarnold | stiv2k: you have to tell zfs what kind of redundancy you'd like -- you've got choices, between none at all, mirrors, multi-way mirrors, raidz1, raidz2, raidz3 | 23:53 |
| sarnold | stiv2k: there's also some more complicated options, if you've got a mixture of fast drives and slow drives, etc.. | 23:54 |
| sarnold | stiv2k: this is a very nice introduction https://pthree.org/2012/12/04/zfs-administration-part-i-vdevs/ | 23:54 |
| stiv2k | sarnold: i'm trying to keep my setup clean and simple. just for personal use at home, not enterprise level stuff | 23:56 |
| stiv2k | sarnold: i was thinking raid 1 (mirroring) | 23:56 |
