See also !esm, !eol, !eolupgrade [03:01] thank you [03:01] Tuna: ^ Software repo has been turned away :( [03:06] I just made a linode ubuntu 20.04 LTS and when I ssh into it as root, I did the command ls and there are no directories, files or folders there at all, and I even install tightvncserver and had no problems, I even install cmatrix and that works! Any ideas before I delete the server and start again? [03:08] hmmm, so no boot repair for me? [03:08] could someone give an example of using nc to create a web link that displays the output of something like " cat example.txt " === pip is now known as Guest8192 [03:11] webchat1: Missuse of cat - something like ' nc termbin.com 9999 < work/stagging ' to post a file to termbin might be the better useage.

[07:05] somehow* [07:12] weird also when i search for address_tracker_linux.cc i get hits for Kali linux to track peoples IP, am i being hackec ?.? [07:13] hacked* [07:13] or is address_tracker_linux.cc part of ubuntu ? [07:40] 'syslog.1' should be the same as 'syslog' permisions right ? === denningsrogue7 is now known as denningsrogue [08:03] Someone able to tell me how I can map an alsa hw dev stream to what ubuntu thinks is the headphone jack? [08:04] I have a Ryzen mobo that has a wierd usb audio bridge build in, and while Ubuntu detects my headphones as plugged in, it plays sound out via main line out [08:04] I've done some fiddling and found that aplay -Dhw:2,1 file_example_WAV_1MG.wav plays out correctly via headphone jack [08:08] i am a noob so i cant give the correct awnser, but i had a problem with my microphone, and found a solution for it through -> 'pacmd load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:1,2' i think it pointed alsa to where the mic realy is , not sure how that works [08:08] and run that command as a bash script on startup [08:09] @ gpeskens [08:09] ty [08:09] i guess source needs to be sink [08:10] i'll give it a try :) [08:10] the device is my soundcard hw1:2 i think in my case hw:1:1 is the sound from the graphics card [08:11] pacmd load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:2,1 <-- works [08:11] awesome :D [08:11] lol :D [08:11] there u go :) [08:11] many thanks [08:11] kids are sick, working from home [08:11] no headphones = terror [08:11] np although i have no clue what it does :) [08:12] you have to run it everytime on boot though [08:12] You command creates an extra pulse audio source alsa backed device, i changed it to be a sink with the correct hw dev ;) [08:12] oke :) [08:12] Yeah running it every boot is less than ideal :P [08:13] I'll create a bug report for it [08:13] you can put a script in cron.daily or as i dd first before discovering cron jobs just point it to a script in the ubuntu startup thingy [08:13] yeah [08:14] cron @reboot is better even ;) [08:14] Though I think it needs to run as the user [08:14] ah yeh true alse it would only run one time [08:14] perhaps a systemd @login trigger, if it exists [08:14] each day [08:16] gpeskens, i hope your kids get better soon [08:16] thx, me2 :) [08:16] hey all [08:16] i have a repo that is unreachable when doing apt update [08:16] how do i remove it? [08:17] find it in /etc/apt/sources.list or one of the files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d [08:17] you can grep -Ri "part_of_url" /etc/apt/ [08:18] or type 'soft' searching for aplications, and find it in the 'other software' tab ? [08:18] in the software & updates* program [08:18] Oh yeah, that also works :P [08:18] I'm not used to using the GUI for anything but starting an IDE, Browser or Terminal ;) [08:18] im a noob i use gui's :) [08:19] Which is fine, they work ;) [08:19] i am not looking to install application but updates but since i saw it comming up as unreachable wanted to remove it right away [08:19] you can see a list of all the repositories in 'software & updates" [08:19] also 3/4 of the file is matching on the part of url [08:19] and disable them [08:20] It might also be a temp failure for the repo [08:21] alright might leave it alone see if it gets resolved and if not then i'll comment them out :) [08:22] i had on my laptop that when ever i did a software update it trew an error not finding a repository, and then i just pressed 'oke' and it just continue with the stuf it could find [08:22] was kind of weird first as the error messages makes you asume first the whole update thingy failed [08:22] Hi. I have a lot of applications installed. Currently, I have 'app folders' to organize my Applications overview. But, I'm about to create a new user for my brother, and I'd like to pass over the organization I already did on my user account. How do I do this? [08:23] is there like a status page for mirrors [08:24] @ Daulity no idea, but maybe you can just enter the adress in your browser see if it can be reached ? or ping it ? [08:25] i can [08:26] I don't know but it's working again [08:26] :D [08:26] Ginalo, I know it's possible to copy past your home folder in to a new user folder in theory and then give permission to all the files in the new folder to the new user [08:26] Daulity, nice :) [08:26] maybe a temporarly issue that i just happen to stumble on when the server had trouble or something [08:26] yeh [08:28] Ginalo, in '/home' are all the users [08:29] just to be sure apt upgrade is just a update of the packages right [08:29] last time i did dist-upgrade and got a whole lot of trouble [08:29] vuurdraak: That would mean copying over files that I _don't_ want to copy over, which I would like to avoid. [08:30] yeh you would need to delete anything you dont want [08:30] Ginalo, maybe there is a smarter way of doing it, but this was the only thing i could come up with is i had to do it [08:31] if* [08:31] warning im just a Linux gamer, not a sysadmin ;') === gschanuel219 is now known as gschanuel21 [09:02] hello [09:02] i need to create a folder and allow ftp connections to store data inside it [09:02] is there a good tutorial? [09:03] it is for a local purpose so i do not need any "special" configuration about security etc etc [09:03] just accept ftp to save files inside a folder [09:03] pycode1, is that not basicly the ftp server settings ? [09:03] set a folder where it dumps stuff in the ftp server ? === javaJake_ is now known as javaJake [09:04] yes i mean...what ftp server should i install [09:04] ah :') [09:05] https://www.ryadel.com/en/vsftpd-configure-different-home-folder-each-user-specific-directory/ [09:05] maybe ^ [09:06] sounds nice, it claims top be popular :) [09:06] i guess any non bloated program will do, personaly i would prefer a program that has a gui, but maybe you prefer console [09:07] pycode1: sometimes sftp (which is something like ftp over ssh) is both easier to setup and safer and easier for the clients; depending on your needs [09:07] on first glance it looks simple enough and you can edit a config file [09:08] E.g. sudo apt install openssh-server, then create accounts for your users, then tell them to use e.g. filezilla to transfer files [09:10] pycode1, i use samba for local file transfers, although android doesn't support v2 which is secure [09:11] and only uses the insecure samba v1 protocol [09:11] samba = like windows local file transfer [09:12] ok [09:13] if your local network is protected by your router it should not be a problem though [09:13] normaly [09:16] vuurdraak, is tehre an app called samba? [09:16] for android [09:16] andSMB [09:16] maybe [09:16] ? [09:17] samba is part of ubuntu [09:17] its already there [09:17] vuurdraak, yes but i mean...how can i send the files form android [09:17] btw i think thelatest android version might support samba v2 protocol [09:17] i need a samba client ther ei mean no? [09:17] i use .. let me see [09:17] X-plore [09:18] its a android fle browser [09:18] so i can put the ip of my pc [09:18] you can just say in nautilus which folder you want to share [09:18] and then start sending [09:18] and access it with X-plore [09:18] yup [09:19] after sending you can unshare the folder for safety [09:19] if you want to and just set it open when u for anybody if you dont want to get a headache [09:20] just set it open when needed* [09:20] or fidle around with samba settings and do it properly and always keep it open [09:21] perfect [09:21] ok [09:21] i try [09:21] thank you! [09:21] :) np [09:23] pycode1, so standard if you share a folder the samba v2 protocol is used on ubuntu and in my android version it can only use samba v1 so it fails [09:23] just a heads up [09:23] sharing it for all gets around this as this is athentication stuf [09:24] at least on my android version === stoned is now known as Hash [09:41] Can you compile/use latest kernel on 20.04 without problems? [09:45] vuurdraak, still there? i wonder how can i see all the online devices in my lan just when there are ONLINE... [09:46] now i see old connections that when i click i cannot open the lan device lan because the other device is off, so it is ok, but i just wonder if it it possible to just see online devices [09:46] instead of randomly clicking on each lan device to see what is online :) [09:49] yo [09:50] you mean in x-plore ? [09:51] pycode1, @ [09:53] Hash: sure, but also note that you can find precompiled kernels at https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [09:54] I see [09:54] https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.15/amd64/ [09:54] And these packages ought to do it for amd64 [09:54] hmm. [09:54] is the low latency an realtime kernel? [09:55] I need help in btrfs [09:55] Nice [09:55] I'll check this out [09:56] pycode1, im not sure what you mean, but at least in x-plore the folders disapear if i unshare them [09:57] i have to go now sadely :') cya laters all o/ [09:57] alkisg: is this a repository or do I manually dl packages? [09:58] Hash, you download them manually and install them with `apt install ./*.deb` [09:58] Ok [10:06] When I run lsblk and see a lot of snap in the output, what does it mean? [10:06] Is /snap mounted? [10:11] https://askubuntu.com/questions/1047456/why-are-all-snaps-being-mounted-and-listed-as-block-devices-or-partitions-for-ub [10:13] this answer does not answer the question [10:14] of 'is snap mounted'? is each snap app mounted in a different mount point? [10:14] I'm not here to answer your questions. [10:15] I can help you out, but that's not what my purpose is. [10:16] That actually does answer the question. [10:18] losetup -a will show you the mounted snap loop devices [10:22] If you read carefully instead of quickly skimming, you'll find the following link in the first comment: https://askubuntu.com/questions/842093/how-do-snaps-work-exactly-and-why-are-they-mounted [10:22] yep, thank you [10:22] You're welcome [10:24] i am on ubuntu 20.04.3. i am getting this error when trying to install rstudio ide : .... rstudio : Depends: libclang-dev but it is not going to be installed [10:26] https://community.rstudio.com/t/unable-to-install-rstudio-on-ubuntu-20-04/76002 [10:27] h_m Did you try that?

[10:42] Then finally: sudo dpkg -i rstudio-2021.09.1-372-amd64.deb [10:42] Then rstudio is installed on system. no problem. [10:42] I am on ubuntu 20.04 official. Not Linux Mint. [10:43] That last one is just to double make sure [10:43] apt-get -f install will install rstudio after installing depends. [10:43] https://bpa.st/GPSQ as per the log here. [10:43] i seem to have the libc6 bug? on my system Installed: 2.31-0ubuntu9.3 ... wonder if it is the problem [10:43] let me see [10:44] https://termbin.com/2vkl i have these [10:45] And my system is fully up to date.

[10:46] https://termbin.com/xvgr [10:46] hugh@ubuntubox [10:46] So I'm not sure why you have 9.3 and I have 9.2 [10:47] install 9.2, reboot [10:47] I guess [10:47] i just update my system as normal and have never installed anything manually [10:47] I understand. I'm not sure why you have 9.3 [10:47] sudo apt install libc6=2.31-0ubuntu9.2 libc-bin=2.31-0ubuntu9.2 [10:48] should i perhaps try the suggestion from mint? sudo apt install --simulate $(dpkg -l | egrep '(libc|locales|nscd).* 2.31-0ubuntu9.3 ' | cut -d' ' -f3 | paste -sd ' ' | sed -r 's/( |$)/=2.31-0ubuntu9.2 /g') [10:48] No. [10:49] Do as I suggested [10:49] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1926918 [10:49] Launchpad bug 1926918 in glibc (Ubuntu) "cannot install libc6-dev, requires old libc6 version" [Undecided, In Progress] [10:49] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1926918/comments/15 [10:49] i get this error with your suggestion: E: Version '2.31-0ubuntu9.' for 'libc-bin' was not found [10:49] Solution #15 [10:50] What did you type exactly [10:50] your error says 9.' instead of 9.2' [10:51] oh, i had a typo [10:53] looks like it downgraded a bunch of things. i am now updating my system... [10:53] thank you. looks like rstudio is installing now [10:54] You're welcome [10:55] :) [10:57] :) [12:37] hey guys, im using the arcmenu for gnome but sometimes the menu dissapears. [12:37] im on wayland now. will it be better if i change to xOrg? [12:38] what is wayland by the way..? [12:39] Wayland is a new protocol that enables 3D compositors to be used as primary display servers, instead of running the 3D compositor as an extension under the (2D) X.org display server. Or, in layman's terms, it assumes you're using a 3D desktop from the start, instead of bolting on 3D capabilities to an 2D framework. [12:40] ah screw it. im just going to replace it and hope it'll be better [13:05] hey I woke up and my windows partition shows weird things, like files being owned by root account [13:05] all files I create on it are also root owned [13:05] how do I mount it correctly [13:06] Ronalds_Mazitis_, a NTFS partition has total ownership [13:06] not individual files [13:06] so the mount you need to set the permisions [13:06] or in fstab [13:06] maybe your fstab has changed ? [13:09] like an NTFS partition in fstab with root looks like this -> UUID= /mnt/MOUNTfolderNAME ntfs-3g defaults,auto,noexec,uid=0,gid=0,umask=002 0 0 [13:10] when its the first user owning the drive its -> UUID= /mnt/MOUNTfolderNAME ntfs-3g defaults,auto,noexec,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=002 0 0 [13:10] ... [13:11] uid=0 = root owning it [13:11] sudo mount /mnt/82u3482374 [13:11] uid=1000 = you owning it [13:11] every file in partition is owned by root [13:11] a NTFS partition has total ownership [13:11] not individual files [13:11] linux can not set permision for a file [13:11] on an NTFS drive [13:11] so it sets it globaly [13:12] effectively making all files root [13:12] if the mount is root [13:12] Uploaded file: https://uploads.kiwiirc.com/files/fd819172d868806eafb0b8d21255a8a5/pasted.txt [13:12] so how do I change fstab [13:12] now [13:12] ? [13:13] I don't have time to go back to time all the time [13:13] you need to start a text editor from a console (ctrl+t) with sudo [13:13] sorry ctrl+alt+T [13:13] dude [13:14] <-- noob linux gamer [13:14] that is fstab [13:14] .... [13:14] I am not beginner I just can't fix linux so often [13:14] certainly not going to go back doing it every day [13:14] here - > /dev/disk/by-uuid/56249952249935C9 /mnt/56249952249935C9 auto nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0 [13:14] oke then i dont know whats going on im not a system admin [13:15] wtf [13:15] Is there a channel for ufw specifically? I'm just trying some interesting firewall rules laid out here: http://lepepe.github.io/sysadmin/2016/01/19/ubuntu-server-ufw.html ... but they are buggy (the "EX:" line in particular) and am trying to figure out the syntax. [13:15] nosuid means that it has global permisions to let everybody access it ? [13:16] yeah [13:16] ? [13:16] oke nvm then then i dont know, i was just trying to help [13:17] sotired, is there not #uwf ? [13:18] here - > /dev/disk/by-uuid/56249952249935C9 /mnt/56249952249935C9 auto nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0 [13:18] Ronalds_Mazitis_, still is the mount it is pointing to maybe turned in to root ? [13:18] vuurdraak: nope.  Unless I also did a typo like you, there's nobody at #ufw  :P [13:18] this would help? [13:18] posib;y [13:18] not sure im not an expert :') [13:18] doh [13:18] somebody possibly turned on windows on this laptop [13:18] and turned it off [13:19] while it was running [13:19] that or this pc was hacked [13:19] or ubuntu is going nuts [13:19] it should not matter, the permisions set inside Linux matter for Linux [13:19] decide [13:19] not what windows did [13:19] so I changed fstab [13:20] restart? [13:20] sure give it a go see what happens [13:26] UUID=1000 helped to change ownership [13:26] nice :) [13:26] but group still stayed root [13:26] idnk why [13:26] put also inside thatfstab line [13:27] ? [13:27] guid=1000 [13:27] ok [13:27] no sorry [13:27] gid=1000 [13:27] ,uid=1000,gid=1000, [13:28] @ Ronalds_Mazitis_ [13:30] okay group ownership regained [13:30] :D [13:30] but this command [13:30] still does not [13:30] tac list list2 [13:30] does not reverse file content [13:30] it does but does not write to list2 [13:30] both have 777 rights and correct user [13:30] i dont know what tac is sorry [13:31] it's sorta [13:31] sorter [13:31] of text files [13:31] it reverses lists [13:31] it worked [13:31] oke :') [13:31] now it can't reverse the file [13:31] it does reverse but does not write into the file the content [13:31] does it have read & write permision ? [13:32] yeah [13:32] well I can sudo [13:32] strange [13:32] if it works with sudo its oke too, the file permision doesnt change on NTFS inside linux [13:32] https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/tac-command-in-linux-with-examples/ [13:32] as its global [13:33] it does not with sudo ether [13:33] maybe you need to set the [Option] first ? [13:33] something like: tac -b file file2 ? [13:34] as in the example on that website there is always an option thingy first [13:35] it does not write into file [13:35] on ubuntu partition ether [13:35] and with option too [13:36] let me try it here see what happens [13:37] tac list > list2 [13:37] this is correct [13:39] it works here o.O [13:39] well today I revisited [13:39] also on an ntfs drive [13:39] partitions and arguments [13:39] certainly not sure what happened [13:39] took me an hour [13:39] like this would be IT job [13:40] I installed some software that has suspicious names [13:40] Ronalds_Mazitis_, could you try in fstab outcomment the line for that NTFS partition [13:40] and make a new one [13:40] with -> ntfs-3g defaults,auto,noexec,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=002 0 0 [13:40] everything is alright now [13:40] it works now ? [13:40] yeah [13:40] \o/ yeeh [13:41] You know software called [13:41] dmitry [13:41] noop [13:41] I installed that to check on website [13:41] I hate russian scammers so I wanted to see some info [13:41] it messed stuff up ? [13:41] I dnk seems like this was another superstition [13:41] why else would my partitions change anything [13:42] never ever do drugs like DMT [13:42] :D [13:42] lol xD [13:42] i cant help with taht :) [13:42] nice that it now works though [13:44] I did not do, but that is only suspicious activity I can found [13:44] lately [13:44] on my pc [13:44] check in var/log what is in your logfiles if you want to check stuff that is happening [13:45] i need to go back to learning :) [13:46] I certainly don't have time to go deep sys admining [13:46] I hate computers :D [13:46] tthat's what she said [13:46] xD [13:46] anyway im afk ;) [14:11] Hi folks [14:14] I need some help, advice, or suggestions on a port/firewall issue...

Any advice for troubleshooting? [14:15] J_Morningstar: step #1 flush iptables and run the same test [14:16] I wasn't asking to ask, I was narrowing the scope of requested assistance. ;) [15:27] I'm still having trouble during boot. It looks like trouble with finding network I get listening on LPF/enpos25/00:21cc:b4:7f:24 DHCPDISCOVER onenpos25 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval (different intervals) Then No DHCPDOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping no search or nameservers found in/run/net-.conf /run/net-*c.conf /run/net6-*.conf Eventually times out after about 5 minutes and boots. Once [15:27] system up and running it finds wifi network and connects [15:28] I think it's looking for a wired connection and eventually not finding one. I only have wifi no wired connections to use. [15:35] I have plugged in an ethernet cable and it does find ip and boot properly then. I just have problems when only wifi is connected. We only have wifi at my house. [15:44] A friend of mine suggested we make a file in /etc/network/interfaces.d called enp0s25 which is the name of the hardware for ethernet The content of that file and /etc/network/interfaces is at https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TpJycPt5nS/ [15:46] We tried uncommenting in various combinations to see if ethernet would time out faster given a static ip. [15:51] nunya: your issue is you completely messed up the networking on this laptop machine. If you had just left it alone and let Network Manager manage the networking, you wouldn't have these issues. [15:52] nunya: if you're going to spend the time trying to fix this machine, I would focus on undoing all the customizations/changes you did to the networking and put it back the way it should be with Network Manager managing the network stack [15:54] leftyfb: something happened a to screw it up after removing "unused kernels" in synaptic. The things I've done to network since have been to try to fix the networking and long boot time. [15:54] nunya: put it back, work from a properly working state, not this mess you have created [15:55] leftyb:If I knew the way it should be I wouldn't be here. Can you please help? [15:56] nunya: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/sTNWR9cTS2/ [15:57] Remove your changes to /etc/network/interfaces.d/*, and also run `nm-connection-editor` and remove all your wired connections. Then reboot; then if it's slow, upload the output of systemd-analyze blame [15:58] wait, /E/N/I????? [15:58] That's what he said, right? [15:58] remove ifupdown completely and go back to netplan with the above file being the only configuration in /etc/netplan/ [15:59] nunya: https://askubuntu.com/a/1034754/1151311 [16:04] alkisg:Everything is commented out in the file created there. I will remove all wired connections and see what happens. [16:05] nunya: remove ifupdown, go back to netplan and configure netplan to use NetworkManager to manage networking [16:06] leftyb:remove ifupdown not sure what you mean. remove from where? [16:06] nunya: follow the last link I sent you [16:09] leftyb: Ok I did follow that link. What do I do with the information?Almost noob don't know much. [16:09] nunya: what version of ubuntu is this?

[16:38] nunya: do you just want this fixed or are you trying to learn? [16:38] leftyb: I want this fixed and trying to learn [16:39] leftyb: just making sure to do it right so as not to mess things up worse [16:39] nunya: start with step 4. in the link I gave you [16:41] https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/sTNWR9cTS2/ or https://askubuntu.com/questions/1034711/how-to-enable-netplan-on-ubuntu-server-upgraded-from-16-04-to-18-04/1034754#1034754 ? [16:41] nunya: is there a step 4. in the first link? [16:44] leftyb: ok found it I'm going to make sure netplan.io is installed with which netplan.io in tefrminal [16:52] leftyb: Have edited the yaml file as described in https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/QKJdx6ZkqV/ Am about to delete file in /etc/network/interfaces.d Am hesitant to delete so renamed /etc/network/interfaces.bak Have run command sudo netplan apply in terminal and about to run sudo apt purge ifupdown and pray and reboot. Sound good? [16:53] nunya: I don't know why you are posting that configuration after the dashes. That needs to go away. You also need to remove the ifupdown package as step 5. shows [16:54] nunya: the final and only file in /etc/netplan/ looks like this https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/sTNWR9cTS2/ not whatever you have or you think you need [16:57] leftyfb: include cat /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml as part of or just the part below # Let NetworkManager manage all devices on this system ? [16:59] leftyb: Sorry $ cat /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml [16:59] nunya: this is the contents of /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml : https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/bhKksry99P/ [17:03] leftyb: Ok.

[18:49] ELFrederich, gm is almost 20 years old.. [19:00] alright... another question. Is there any way to get liquid rescale working within Gimp? This guide used to work for me: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/gimp-woes-in-20-04/15828/14 ... (should be a direct link to comment which has 5x dpkg commands). [19:01] Currently the liquid rescale plugin is now giving me... `attempted to install procedure "plug-in-lqr" with invalid parameter name "output target".` [19:01] I believe that previous workaround used to work for me. Today I tried using it and couldn't find it in the gimp menus. [19:11] leftyb: I did everything to the letter you and alkisg said still getting results of systemd-analyze blame at https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/kscnSnt7qk/ [19:12] nunya: what does that have to do with networking? [19:13] nunya: according to your output, the things that take the most time are snapd, one of your partitions and cleaning up logs [19:14] that was what alkisg said to ppaste if everything still didn't work [19:14] nunya: does your networking work currently?

[19:55] itch: personally I use ansible [19:56] anything more noob friendly? :) [19:56] If I stop and start playing audio, I can slowly increase the set volume to maximum, which is strange.

[21:22] I also had certain echoing audio issues with skyrim which after a lot of research I narrowed down to an faudio issue (I checked and faudio does not exist on my old laptopn, only xaudio). Thankfully it seems winetricks has an inbuilt option to force the xact lib onto a wineprefix, which I promptly did and seems like it has fixed the audio issues. Anyways the long and short of it is that, yeah it was more complex than it should have been [21:22] but bit by bit success is being attained [21:22] supercool, hi [21:23] Could someone help me to verify aUbuntu install with is not booting please? I am using a second device in order to access and check this troblematic unit. [21:26] Is fsck a good idea? [21:27] pikapika: hi [21:29] hello all. I have a relatively new install of 21.04 server. For some reason, the same Nic is getting assigned two different IP addresses from two different ip spaces (172.16.1.0/24 and 192.168.8.0/24). The first comes via cloud-init and the second via dhcp. Note, these ips are both in use on two different vlans, and the dhcp server handles both, but why would two get assigned to the same Nic? [21:36] The message I am receiving during boot is "failed to start Snap Daemon." [21:38] d1rewolf: dhcp reservations are per subnet; the dhcp server doesn't consider it "the same client" as it doesn't exist on the *same* subnet with the same mac [21:38] If the client does 2 dhcp requests on 2 different vlans, it'll get 2 ips [21:42] alkisg: thanks for the response. what would cause it to make two different dhcp requests though? one definitely comes from dhcpd: "dhcpcd[669]: enp2s0: probing address 192.168.8.201/24". The other via dhcp from systemd-networking? "systemd-networkd[627]: enp2s0: DHCPv4 address 172.16.1.7/16 via 172.16.1.1" [21:42] If you have declared to vlan interfaces, it's like you have 2 nics; they do 2 dhcp requests [21:43] But note that I've no idea about cloud-init or netplan, so I can't mention any details [21:43] well, I didn't *declare* them, as I just installed the OS [21:43] *two [21:43] How does it know that you have a vlan? [21:44] didn't do any specific special vlan config. I suppose this means somehow vlan traffic from both vlans is making it onto that switch port and ubuntu is seeing it and doing some automagic? [21:44] alkisg: it's a great question re: how does it know there are vlans to begin with [21:45] I don't know of any "vlan autodiscovery" mechanisms, I can't imagine how that would happen if you didn't specify it in a configuration step [21:45] Maybe someone else does know though, my knowledge in vlans in limited... [21:45] Hello how can i make it so my NVME drives are auto mounted on startup [21:45] alkisg: I know. and...I didn't. sigh. You go away for a few years and the whole networking substructure changes ;) I long for the days before netplan/cloud-init/etc [21:46] Oh I purge all these new things, snapd, netplan etc :) [21:47] Well i used to do networking but i gave up on all that crap as you will spend your entire life certifying for rubbish [21:47] If something catches up enough to become a standard across many distributions, then it's worth my time...
