EriC^^_after that linux line hit enter and type 'initrd (loop)/casper/initrazds'  but i think that last part should be /casper/initramfs  try to use tab completion instead to fill it out after initra00:00
EriC^^_finally type 'boot' and it should boot00:01

EriC^^_WickedDekciw i think you also need to type "loopback loop /multiboot/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64/" too, before the initrd one00:02
WickedDekciwIs there a spelling mistake on amd64.1so00:05
WickedDekciw!?00:05
EriC^^_spotted a few mistakes yeah00:05
EriC^^_yeah i was just about to say that00:05
EriC^^_there's an extra space in00:05
EriC^^_ iso-scan/filename=/multiboot/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso00:06
EriC^^_remove also the space between multiboot/ubuntu -20.04...00:07
WickedDekciwError file blabla.iso not found00:08
WickedDekciwI must have typed something wrong I got no idea00:08
EriC^^_there was an extra space between ubuntu 20.04.3, did you remove it ?00:09
WickedDekciwYeah I removed it but I think it's a dash00:11
WickedDekciwWait a second could I just boot into Windows the literally just open it from there00:12
WickedDekciwBecause like the folder would literally be visible on Windows or is what I'm doing right00:12
WickedDekciw😂😂😂😂😂00:12
WickedDekciwI'm literally insane for doing it this way if it can work otherwise but then again if I knew what I was doing I would have just done it and I barely know my name00:13
EriC^^_nah you need to fsck or troubleshoot and stuff from ubuntu00:13
EriC^^_unless you have fsck on windows, in that case it might help i guess00:14
EriC^^_anyways give it another go, you're pretty much there, just need to try to boot it and have it fsck and see if it finds any errors and helps00:14
EriC^^_if you do "ls /multiboot/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso"  does it work or file not found?00:15
WickedDekciwI'll see00:17
WickedDekciwInvalid file name00:18
WickedDekciwAny chance I can do this from WSL?00:19
WickedDekciwOr do I need specifically to be booted here00:20

eletiousIs there a way to configure a tty or an emulator to emit a sound whenever a character is written to the screen?  I've worded that badly, and it's reflecting in my search results :(03:31
lotuspsychjeeletious: you want to hear an alert when someone intrudes your system?03:34
eletiousI'm looking to get some auditory feedback as I type and as output is printed... It's a weird sensory thing, I think.  I noticed that a lot of platforms designed to keep up user engagement use auditory cues to do it - mostly video games, but also social media platforms like Snapchat and Facebook Messenger.  I'm wondering if I can leverage that sort of auditory attention hack for my own use.03:35
carnophage2...03:37
eletiousit's weird, I know03:37
orange1you can program it with sdl or maybe x libraries and pulse audio libraries but sdl without a window would be easier03:37
carnophage2eletious, have you considered a mechanical keyboard?03:40
eletiousI actually use a mechanical keyboard03:40
lotuspsychjeeletious: on gnome there's a noticiation system that gives you popups ontop, and individual programs act all different too, like hexchat can notify with highlight sounds03:40
sarnoldeletious: https://snapcraft.io/bucklespring maybe?03:40
eletiousbucklespring is close.  I could maybe fork it and replace the sounds, though I was looking for a way to tie it more closely with the TTY... this might be a good option.03:43
eletiousI definitely don't have the motivation to learn SDL or build a terminal emulator, at the very least not in a short-term sense03:44
sarnoldactually building a whole terminal emulator would be pretty difficult, those are non-trivial; modifying tmux or your current terminal would be a better starting point03:46
sarnoldI haven't actually read any of the 'real' terminals but my instincts suggest tmux would be the 'easiest' code to work with and modify and build new things, etc03:47
sarnoldbut one of the gui terminals like alacritty or urxvt or gnome-terminal etc might be easier to hook up to a sound playing API03:47
eletiousYeah, trying to build a terminal emulator would be madness.03:48
eletiousI'll start with bucklespring, since it seems like the best option short-term... modifying tmux or an existing gui terminal would be a more long-term project and definitely not an easy one.  Though maybe an insightful one.03:49
eletiousThanks for the help everyone!03:49
TJ-eletious: you might find powerline integrations with vim and tmux interesting in how to hook interactive events03:50
TJ-eletious: you could just install gnustep-gui-common then you can do "say "Hello and welcome to G N U Lin-ux!"03:55
lotuspsychjei actualy like the idea of a terminal sound, but i would be more interested in any movement on screen03:58
eletiousThat's a really good way of putting what I'm looking for, though initially I thought getting feedback in a TTY would be easier than setting it up for a whole OS03:59
eletiousTo be fair that's probably still true03:59
eletiousTJ-: I don't know that the latter is necessarily what I'm going for, but it is pretty cool04:00
TJ-eletious: with some neat bash TRAPs it might be quite entertaining and that would be done via shell, not terminal04:01
TJ-eletious: I'm sure I've come across something with tmux that does give audible feedback though, in my capacity working with visually impaired04:01

eletiousidk about terminal feedback, but this could be tied in with sxhkd bindings, or a WM that emits window open events04:18
TJ-eletious: following the links in the feedbackd github, about sound events and the naming, leads to what looks to be a specification from the ealy Pulseaudio days for naming of sound events, and in that there looks to be every kind of event you could want! http://0pointer.de/public/sound-naming-spec.html04:22
TJ-See Table 5 "Standard Input Feedback Sounds"04:23

magoIs there none included in the standard installation?13:37
oerheksmago,  there is no simgle best, check out supported SASL clients https://libera.chat/guides/sasl13:37

magoWhat irc clients are you using right now to connect to libera?13:43
oerheksno polling please, i gave you a list with supported ones, try and use the one you like best13:43
oerheksyou would get 1042 opinions13:44

KBarmago this channel is for Ubuntu Support.13:45
magoYes, and the question is what is the best irc client for Ubuntu?13:45
KBarfeel free to discuss stuff like this in #ubuntu-offtopic13:46
KBarBest is subjective, as oerheks mentioned.13:46
magoWell Ubuntu distro decides what's best when it installs software by default, like thunderbird for instance..13:47
KBardefault != best13:47
KBarYou're confusing the two concepts.13:47
magoMost compatible, better supported..13:48
KBarJoin #ubuntu-offtopic for that. Thanks.13:48
magoI have13:48
magoThough Im not sure you get to make the rules, regarding polling for example, havent found the no polling rule.13:48
ravagethe rule is: support questions regarding supported Ubuntu versions only13:49
ravagethat excludes everything else13:49
oerheksI just told you, you would get tons of different answers. basicly there are 2 types of clients, GUI and TTY based13:50
Lumpio-A question of opinion is still a question though13:50
magoI'm usint Ubuntu 20.04, been using Ubuntu for the last decade at least, and want to know what IRC client is most recommended and better supported?13:52

EugenMayerHello. Trying to bootstrap a focal instance (current stable release) with cloud-init on openstack. While debian works as expected and picks up the DHCP pushed DNS, ubuntu does only show them in resolvectl status, but ping/dig does not work. (i use a private DNS server for looking up private domains)13:56
EugenMayerAre there any issues regarding that with netplan?13:56
EugenMayerhttps://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/08aef05b84b5f6e66bfb0ebead1c9a2213:57
TJ-EugenMayer: does ping to IP addresses work?13:58
EugenMayerTJ- ok i just stubled uppon a CNAME typo in the DNS - thus actually it does work for a default 20.04 installation but seems to be broken when one deployes RKE2 on it14:00
EugenMayeron the RKE2 box (20.04 based entirely) i see https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/ffb24cebea603fb3fc79f141d155128114:01
TJ-EugenMayer: what are you expecting? that looks sane to me14:03
EugenMayerwhy is 1.1.1.1 the current one, not 10.10.0.243?14:03
TJ-EugenMayer: well, you've snipped all the important info from that resolvectl report, but presumably both nameservers have equal weighting and are set to global scope, so they round-robin and 1.1.1.1 was added first, and hasn't failed to resolve a query so far (if it did, resolved would try the next nameserver)14:05
EugenMayerTJ- what would you need to be sure? My DHCP does has weighting, it does work for vanilla focal/debian and sorts. Seems to get confused when RKE is deployed (why would the weighting be removed?)14:06
TJ-EugenMayer: resolved has the concept of routed DNS (nameservers valid only on specific links). So whatever is informing resolved of those nameservers is presumably not setting scope of the nameserver correctly14:07
EugenMayerTJ- since it is openstack and the interface is ens3 defined in openstack, it seems to be scoped: https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/64c4c5da39a1d8f58b9a763cced4a62014:09
TJ-EugenMayer: see "man systemd-resolved" it explains it in depth - see the parts especially about DefaultRoute= and "~."14:11
EugenMayeri will, thanks14:11
TJ-EugenMayer: resolvectl should show the routing next to each link, and at least 1 should have "~."14:12
EugenMayerTJ- i read that all non-scoped are routed via the ~. rule - but in my case they should be all unscoped and all queries should go to 10.10.0.243. In both cases ens3 hass the default route flag, but i do not understand how this selects the DNS server14:14
TJ-EugenMayer: what tool is confuring the network - is it systemd-networkd?14:15
EugenMayercloud-init via openstack14:16
TJ-too manly layers of indirection!14:16
EugenMayeri'am not sure which layer is used here, not trivial to find out14:16
EugenMayeryes - for sure.14:16
TJ-what's actually managing the network on the host!?14:16
EugenMayercloud-init - via DHCP in the end14:16
TJ-EugenMayer: "systemctl status systemd-networkd"14:16
TJ-EugenMayer: is that active?14:17
EugenMayeryes14:17
TJ-right, I'm guessing that is configured at runtime by netplan, from cloud-init! So now check the config in /etc/netplan/14:17
TJ-probably you'll have a 50-cloud-init.conf14:17
=== mago17 is now known as mrcoffee
TJ-Check that, does it declare those 2 nameservers?14:17
EugenMayerhttps://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/3427d16ddb3b8da15cee3d8928e2a61414:18
EugenMayerno it uses DHCP, as mentioned. And that DHCP is pushing 10.... first, then 1.1.1.114:18
TJ-EugenMayer: as far as I recall, last received nameserver will be 1st in the list, barring any other config. Since it is coming via DHCPv4 there's not a lot you can do to influence that. What is 10.10.0.243 supposed to do? Is it only for private LAN names?14:23
TJ-EugenMayer: also, is that on the bare-metal host or in a container?14:23
EugenMayerit is an dnsdist in front of an resursor/auth. dns server for private dns resolution14:24
EugenMayerTJ- the box is a VM, but not bare metal14:24
EugenMayeri just spawned a new focal box in the very same subnet14:24
EugenMayerand it's configuration turned out to be correct https://gist.github.com/EugenMayer/19038e4f1851af207513edafbe99ff1b14:25
EugenMayerso whatever does this DNS reconfiguration, must have been installed by RKE2.14:25
TJ-EugenMayer: I think you're missing the point - the order isn't fixed, it's round-robin for equal nameservers. So even though you're sometimes seeing 10.10.0.243 first, it isn't guaranteed to remain that way. A few millseconds of latency on the network when a query is in flight and resolved will rotate to the other nameserver. Same on the host where 1.1.1.1 is first14:27
TJ-EugenMayer: you should not be handing out 2 nameservesr via the same DHCP lease if those nameservers are not equal14:27
EugenMayersince when is DNS round robbing - is this systemd-resolv related?14:27
=== mrcoffee is now known as mago
TJ-EugenMayer: you're telling resolved there are 2 nameservers it can use. You're not telling it one is specific to the LAN. So resolved will round-robin those. It's standard primary/secondary nameserver config14:28
magoIm using weechat now..14:29
magoIm using weechat now..14:29
EugenMayerusually, what goes in /e/resolve.conf was not rr, it was 'first, if not accissible, then second' - this changed?14:29
EugenMayeri understand what scoped TJ- i'am just suprised about RR here to be usual, that is not what iam used to14:30
TJ-EugenMayer:  well, you need to determine why with RKE2 the order seems to be changed14:31
TJ-EugenMayer: you seem to have evidence that without RKE2 the order is preserved14:31
EugenMayerTJ- thanks - i will investigate14:32
TJ-EugenMayer: might be worth ruling out a DHCP server/proxy issue by manually grabbing a lease with 'dhclient' -- "sudo dhclient -v -d -4 <interface>" and checking the nameserver order provided, on the RKE2 and on the non-RKE214:33
TJ-If it's the same, then you need to compare the generated networkd configuration in case there is a subtle difference. As its using netplan those are runtime so you'll find them under /run/systemd/network/*.network14:34
EugenMayerthanks14:34
TJ-also might be worth checking which systemd-resolved stub is in use on both: "ls -l /etc/resolv.conf" --- will be /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf or /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf  - slightly different behaviours. The former is preferred14:36
TJ-(it's a symlink or should be)14:36
EugenMayer /etc/resolv.conf -> ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf14:37

vinzzz Hi there15:02
vinzzzSorry to disturb here, I don't know if it's really the place to ask this question :  I use an ubuntu server and sendmail (to send mail for our customers) but I've got lot of problem with some domain recipient (like outlook.fr/.com) the mail are not sent for security reason15:02
vinzzzI look and try to follow some tutorial about opendkim and generate priv and pub key but it doesn't work15:02
vinzzzIs anybody can help me about this topic because I'm not bad in linux use but not really good in this kind of sysadmin topic .. ?15:02
mjtvinzzz: running a mail server is hard and I suggest you use a managed service unless you really know what you're doing15:03
mjtgetting a good IP reputation is even harder...15:03
mjtHere's something I found through Google: https://gist.github.com/artmouse/632b7ea16af967a78d5b15:04
mjtYou will want SPF and DKIM at bare minimum.15:04
GNUtooHi, is it the right channel for questions on hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com? Is it possible to upload keys to hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com if you don't have the associated private key of the main SC key?15:05
mjtyou just need a public key to upload to a keyserver15:05
mjtno proof of private key ownership is required15:06
vinzzzmjt: Yes thanks for your reply. I'm good in linux command line and administration in generally, but on this part it's a little bit new for me. I've already check and configure the SPF and DKIM but it doesn't works15:06
vinzzzThe server is OVH15:07
mjtyeah got my doubts about their IP reputation15:07
vinzzzYes I already put the public key to the server in the DNS zone as indicated in there tuto15:07
GNUtoothanks15:08
vinzzzHum, OVH is a big french provider compagny used by many company in France.. Lots of them use send mail and work perfectly15:08
mjtvinzzz: for outlook.com/office 365 issues, you could try registering here: https://sendersupport.olc.protection.outlook.com/snds/index.aspx15:09
vinzzzBut a question I asked to me is : do I put the domaine name that I choose for the DNS like http to access to my website or do I need to use @vps-xxxxxxxx.vps.ovh.net instead ?15:10
mjtall email should be going through your own domain name now vps.ovh.net15:11
mjtnot**15:11
vinzzzmjt: ok thanks for this answer it was one of questions15:13
mjtrdns for the mx IP address should be your own domain name too15:13
mjtnot vps.ovh.net etc15:13
vinzzzOk it's what I done15:15
scannoYou can also use one of the mail checker sites what might go wrong after you setup spf, dkim15:15
mjtmxtoolbox.com is good15:16
mjthttps://mxtoolbox.com/emailhealth15:17

superdadHello, we are trying to ipxe boot Ubuntu to install servers using Autoinstall. We are trying to set the ubuntu apt repo to a server that has an HTTPS with a custom Certificate authority. With Autoinstall, is it possible to load a custom Apt primary source, that is https?  And if so how do you load the CA truststore for that?15:37
scannovinzzz: also make sure you have your reverse dns setup correctly15:45
vinzzzscanno: yes It was correctly setup with our domain name15:46
dbungertsuperdad: autoinstall supports mirrors and apt proxies easily enough, but a custom CA in time for apt is more tricky.15:59

natewrench123456hi i was wondering if anyone else is having issues with installing Ubuntu as it fails to install grub and mark it as bootable on my laptop hdd17:17
natewrench123456my laptop says "no bootable device"17:17
tomreynnatewrench123456: this happens occasionally, but can have several reasons, so it's not possible to tell what the cause is, unless you can provide more details.17:27
tomreynnatewrench123456: which laptop model is it, and are you booting in uefi or (legacy) BIOS mode? how old is the HDD (could it be broken?) - you could examine its S.M.A.R.T. data while booted from the ubuntu installer / live system to get a better idea on this.17:29
natewrench123456tomreyn, its an acer booting in uefi, its 5 years old17:33
natewrench123456smart says the hdd is fine a 1 tb, tomreyn17:33
tomreynnatewrench123456: can you check in the bios whether "secure boot" is enabled? and whether it has a protection to prevent writing data to the efi system partition?17:35
natewrench123456tomreyn, hmm its unavailable without setting a password17:36
tomreynnatewrench123456: keep "secure boot" disabled, i was just wondering what its status is. i understand you're saying it's disabled, correct?17:36
natewrench123456yes17:37
natewrench123456wait its legacy not uefi tomreyn17:38
tomreynnatewrench123456: do you dual-/multi-boot there, or will ubuntu be the only operating system?17:41
natewrench123456tomreyn, i used to use win 10 but now it seems like arch or fedora based distros work i must've screwed up flashing the bios because certain distros like ubuntu will not initalize the hard drive17:42
natewrench123456tomreyn, i definitely screwed up the bios i can only use legacy booting17:43
tomreynnatewrench123456: if one linux distribution works as expected and another doesn't, it's often just a matter of kernel versions.17:43
natewrench123456if ubuntu uses UEFI for its install then thats why it wont work17:43
tomreynnatewrench123456: if this laptop is 5 years old, then it probably defaults to uefi booting. so you could just resetit to manufacturer defaults17:43
natewrench123456dammit17:43
natewrench123456i did17:44
tomreynubuntu can install in either uefi or legacy bios mode. but on a laptop that's 5 years old, i would suggest installing in uefi mode17:44
natewrench123456if i put the laptop in uefi mode then it cant find any bootable devices17:44
tomreynwhat is "it"?17:44
tomreynthe laptop firmware (UEFI/BIOS) or the ubuntu installer?17:45
natewrench123456intel h20 bios17:45
tomreynyou mean insyde17:45
natewrench123456acer aspire e5 52517:45
natewrench123456yes17:45
tomreynso you're saying that the bios will not detect the hdd when you set the bios to uefi boot mode?17:46
natewrench123456yes17:46
tomreynmeaning the disk does not show on the bios?17:46
natewrench123456yes17:47
natewrench123456i get a no bootable device found17:47
tomreynthat's not what i asked, though17:47
natewrench123456yes it is detected17:48
tomreyndoes the disk show *in* the bios setup application in any of the two modes, uefi or legacy bios?17:48
tomreynand if so, which one (and which one not)17:48
natewrench123456it showed in both versions legacy and uefi but could not boot in uefi mode17:48
tomreynokay, that's a different statement than before. ;)17:49
natewrench123456tomreyn, im sorry i danced around the issue17:49
tomreynso set the bios to uefi boot mode, then check whether there is an "intel RST" setting. and if so, disable that17:49
tomreynno worries ;)17:49
natewrench123456tomreyn, thats weird, the HDD0 password is frozen not set17:51
natewrench123456ok that worked thanks tomreyn it looks like the hard drive was locked and wasnt initalizing17:55
tomreynnatewrench123456: what worked exactly?17:55
tomreynnatewrench123456: i.e. what did you (need to) do?17:56
natewrench123456i cleared the hdd password and disabled secure boot17:56
tomreynokay cool, so that should enable you to install then17:56
tomreynsee also https://www.laptop-forums.com/threads/hdd-password-frozen-and-greyed-out.23827/ might help17:56
tomreynthere does not seem to be an "acer aspire e5 525" model, but there is Acer E5-572G-525V (Part Number: NX.MV2SI.006): https://www.acer.com/datasheets/2016/4876/E5-572G/NX.MV2SI.006.html17:58
tomreynis this the model you are referring to?17:58
natewrench123456yes17:59
tomreynthere is also "Acer Aspire E5-574-525M"17:59
natewrench123456yep thats it18:00
tomreynso... one of these ;)18:01
tomreynyou can use    journalctl -b | grep DMI:    later while running Ubuntu (installer or installed system) if you like. It's not so important now.18:02
natewrench123456ok18:04
tomreynin case the installation should fail and the hdd password should remain "frozen", you may need to remove power supply, remove battery (it should be removeable on this model), and long-press (30s to 1 min) the power on button. this should do a cmos/nvram reset18:04
natewrench123456ok thanks18:05

fengshaunhow do I prevent ubuntu from hijacking Ctrl-. in emacs?23:09
fengshaunwhenever I press C-. which is my binding to move around within emacs, ubuntu shows a "e" popup and I have to press enter. It seems like it wants me to enter multiple characters, but then when I press enter it enters the same characters I entered in that small black popup in the editor23:10
fengshaunI disabled whatever I could find in settings regarding compose key23:10
fengshaunit does the same in activities overview search box too23:12
fengshaunnot in terminal23:12
