| MsSmith | hello | 00:31 |
| MsSmith | how come bash myscript.sh >> text_file leaves empty file? | 00:31 |
| MsSmith | I see INFO messages being printing to screen when i execute myscript.sh | 00:31 |
| tomreyn | maybe those INFO messages are not on stdout but on stderr? | 00:34 |
| MsSmith | yes I tried 2&1 >> | 00:34 |
| MsSmith | didn't work :( | 00:34 |
| tomreyn | wrong order + syntax | 00:34 |
| tomreyn | bash myscript.sh >> text_file 2>&1 | 00:35 |
| MsSmith | oh yea that worked | 00:36 |
| MsSmith | damn | 00:36 |
| MsSmith | ok so. whats the difference besides ordering why do I have to have 2>&1 at end? | 00:36 |
| sbraz | MsSmith: it's explained here https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/bash/manual/bash.html#Redirections "Note that the order of redirections is significant" etc. | 00:45 |
| sbraz | if you're doing bash and not another shell you can do "&>>" https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/bash/manual/bash.html#Appending-Standard-Output-and-Standard-Error | 00:48 |
| MsSmith | ok thanks | 00:49 |
| MsSmith | i guess im just confused why 2&1 the redirection part comes at the end of the statement | 00:50 |
| MsSmith | wouldnt that mean its executed last? | 00:50 |
| MsSmith | after the command >> file.txt is written to the file? | 00:50 |
| MsSmith | I assume code is executed left to right | 00:52 |
| MsSmith | bash command 2>>&1 result.txt would make more sense to me than bash command >> result.txt 2>>&1 | 00:54 |
| sbraz | MsSmith: did you read the first link? | 01:00 |
| sbraz | maybe this explanation is easier to understand than the manual's https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/37662 | 01:01 |
| MsSmith | " The following redirection operators may precede or appear anywhere within a simple command or may follow a command" | 01:02 |
| MsSmith | oh yea got it now thanks | 01:02 |
| MsSmith | seems bizzare syntax tho hm | 01:02 |

| mjt | betty: hello again | 03:25 |
| betty | geeze that was surprisingly simple thank you =) | 03:26 |
| betty | when im using systemctrl and journalctrl on my one user pc as $user should i be using "sudo" as a prefix | 03:30 |
| betty | or will systemctrl and journalctrl run fine as $ | 03:31 |
| leftyfb | depends on the version of ubuntu and/or security settings | 03:31 |
| leftyfb | if it doesn't give you a "Hint:" then you are probably fine running them as the user | 03:32 |

| Macer | is there an issue with ubuntu repos? | 05:43 |
| Macer | The repository 'http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu groovy-security Release' does not have a Release file. | 05:43 |
| Macer | this is new | 05:43 |
| toddc | Macer: may be down for maint | 05:44 |
| Macer | oh ok. | 05:45 |
| toddc | you can check other locations | 05:45 |
| Macer | i'm trying now. even apt-select won't work | 05:45 |
| oerheks | !groovy | 05:45 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 20.10 (Groovy Gorilla) was the 33rd release of Ubuntu, support ended July 22nd, 2021. See !eol and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2021-June/000269.html | 05:45 |
| Macer | oerheks: oh | 05:46 |
| oerheks | it is deleted, if you want some packages or upgrade to a supported veersion, use the eol trick? | 05:46 |
| oerheks | !eolupgrade | 05:46 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 05:46 |
| Macer | can i just upgrade the distro in a proxmox lxc container? | 05:47 |
| Macer | not too sure if that might be something difficult to do | 05:47 |
| oerheks | maybe you could, but i would build a fresh one | 05:47 |
| Macer | it's backed up.. i'll give it a go | 05:48 |
| toddc | Macer: I had to rebuild a new one but I amd sure it could be done but rebild was easier/cleaner for me | 05:49 |
| Macer | i'd like to avoid that | 05:52 |
| Macer | i'm testing it out on another container now to see what happens | 05:52 |
| Macer | i'm sort of scratching my head wonering why on earth i wouldn't have selected an LTS | 05:54 |
| Macer | ok. that worked fine. so i guess the solution is to just upgrade everything | 05:58 |

| melvinga | hi :) I'm new here | 07:07 |
| melvinga | https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2021-44224 This CVE brought me here. Whom to get in touch with so that I can contribute to providing apache server updates to apt? | 07:08 |
| ubottu | A crafted URI sent to httpd configured as a forward proxy (ProxyRequests on) can cause a crash (NULL pointer dereference) or, for configurations mixing forward and reverse proxy declarations, can allow for requests to be directed to a declared Unix Domain Socket endpoint (Server Side Request Forgery). This issue affects Apache HTTP Server 2.4.7 up to 2.4.51 (included). <https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-44224> | 07:08 |
| melvinga | that's right ubottu and thanks for pasting the summary of it. | 07:11 |
| melvinga | I find a larger issue there. Ubuntu 18.04 has latest apache available through apt, and that's apache 2.4.29 (released Oct 2017). | 07:11 |
| melvinga | Thought I'd contribute with providing newer versions of apache through apt in a timely manner. Would you know whom I should get in touch with to understand how I can contribute? | 07:11 |
| pikapika | Why does build-deps often list such a large no of packages even if you have the binary already there? Are all those really the transitive dependencies of build systems used by that app? | 07:37 |

| nuxer | hi there. just a quick question related to rsync & data duplication: is there any easy method to back up data from an existing large NAS volume to smaller portions so that the file mirror process would automatically skip to the next destination volume after reaching i.e. x terabytes of written data | 09:33 |

| webchat16 | Hi | 11:33 |
| webchat16 | I have an issue looking for some advice | 11:33 |
| webchat16 | I have a device with 2 drives. sda and Sdb. Sdb has my os Ubuntu 20 that was installed using the encrypted LUKS option with a /boot on sdb2, sdb2 is the encrypted volume. I just installed a fresh Ubuntu 20 on sda which replaced my grub boot loader with the new one that doesn’t detect my LUKS volume. I am on the new SDA Ubuntu. How can I switch | 11:38 |
| webchat16 | back to my old grub? I can see the efi, grub and imgs on sdb2 so how can I select those? Thanks | 11:38 |

| nuxer | could someone maybe help me with CIFS/SMB mounting on Ubuntu? I was able to just mount my network drive from the file explorer (using latest Ubuntu 21.10 Desktop), but it doesn't create any mount point! 'mount.cifs' seems to fail in authentication and am scratching my head atm | 11:50 |
| nuxer | if someone knows does Ubuntu create a mountpoint somewhere that is accessible via terminal when you mount a SMB/CIFS network drive in file explorer, I'd be happy to know | 11:51 |
| nuxer | (if it doesn't, then that's just odd) | 11:51 |
| nuxer | mount.cifs seems to be either outdated or something else is going haywire when I try to authenticate through it | 11:52 |
| nuxer | what I get is a <networkdrivename>.local mount point in the xwindow file browser, but is that location accessible any other way than with the file explorer? | 11:59 |
| nuxer | where does Ubuntu store the credentials by default, since I've tried this and that and the other to access via cifs-mount and mount, smb:// is not supported as an address yet, according to the errormsg, and with a direct IP something goes wrong too | 12:00 |
| nikolam | My RAM (16GB and swap) got filled by Firefox and whole system freezed. I were thinking that is the thing of the past. Nope. still on 21.10 | 12:12 |
| nikolam | Linux should be also a desktop platform.. but freezing all the system (graphics and keyboard.. ) because some process used too much RAM.. | 12:13 |
| ksy | which de do you use? | 12:21 |
| ksy | kde? | 12:21 |
| ramblebamble | I might be more interested in how the FF is installed ubuntu changed something in newer versions | 12:21 |
| ramblebamble | but in general I doubt FF is at fault, typical flaming IMHO, I have over 50 tabs open and do serious work on my machines and no proble thus far | 12:22 |
| ksy | i never open more than 20 tabs at once😂 | 12:25 |
| webchat98 | hi can someone help me , i posted a question about 30 minutes ago about LUKS and grub | 12:26 |
| ramblebamble | yeah, things I wanna look at etc. I sometimes get carried away | 12:26 |
| webchat98 | but my screen refresshed | 12:26 |
| webchat98 | diud anybody answer my question i didntt see | 12:26 |
| ramblebamble | webchat98 what was the question? been here for ~30min nothing came in | 12:27 |
| KBar | webchat98: Happy New Year. Please keep in mind that most of us are AFK or are busy preparing/celebrating. | 12:27 |
| webchat98 | i have a device with 2 drives sda and sdb. sdb has ubuntu 20 installed with LUKS encrytped option, today i installed fresh ubuntu 20 os on sda which was previously empty. the new installation grub took over and isnt detecting my old luks ubuntu volume | 12:28 |
| webchat98 | i just followed tutorial didnt work | 12:28 |
| webchat98 | i mounted, chroot, and re install grub on encrypted device | 12:28 |
| webchat98 | rebooted | 12:28 |
| webchat98 | and now it takes to grub rescure | 12:29 |
| webchat98 | what can i do to get my grub back to normal | 12:29 |
| KBar | webchat98: Ubuntu 20.04 or 20.10? | 12:29 |
| webchat98 | all my important documents are here | 12:29 |
| webchat98 | 20.04 | 12:29 |
| webchat98 | i have a sdb2 which is /boot with efi and images etc | 12:30 |
| ramblebamble | webchat98 usually you will have to configure grub to load luks when booting,the good news is that your data is not lost, just not accessible, you can mount the system in a live-cd or your other system and reinstall grub | 12:30 |
| webchat98 | and sdb3 which is my encyrpted data | 12:30 |
| KBar | Well, not a great way to end 2021, that's for sure. | 12:30 |
| webchat98 | ramblebamble i am looking at my data it is mounted and available anmd so is sdb2 /boot | 12:31 |
| webchat98 | i have mounted sdb3 and sdb2 | 12:31 |
| webchat98 | i need grub installed on sdb2 and to detect luks | 12:31 |
| webchat98 | i have spent hours and 100 google searches | 12:32 |
| ramblebamble | I never had this type of problem with Ubuntu(always ran a different setup for my workmachines) webchat98 | 12:35 |
| ramblebamble | but you will find what you are looking for here https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt specifically this part https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/System_configuration#Boot_loader | 12:36 |
| ksy | maybe you'd better mount your system on a live-cd and copy the important data to a safe place first | 12:36 |
| ramblebamble | It is arch, but the underlying system is still Linux | 12:36 |
| ramblebamble | or you can do as ksy suggests | 12:36 |
| ksy | data first | 12:37 |
| webchat98 | i already backed up data | 12:37 |
| webchat98 | before install | 12:37 |
| webchat98 | thank you | 12:37 |
| webchat98 | thanks ramblebamble im looking now | 12:39 |
| webchat98 | it is not clear what are the steps to take, there are multiple options in bold do you see | 12:40 |
| webchat98 | Kernel parameters , Using encrypt hook , etc | 12:40 |
| ramblebamble | yes, my best guess would be to start with building the appropriate initramfs | 12:41 |
| ramblebamble | and then continue with the bootloader configuration | 12:41 |
| webchat98 | what about /dev/sdb2 | 12:41 |
| webchat98 | oh for fucks sake | 12:41 |
| webchat98 | it is over written | 12:41 |
| webchat98 | i had a dev/sdb2 with an efi and boot folder and all the image vmlinux stuff | 12:42 |
| webchat98 | now its gone | 12:42 |
| webchat98 | maybe that is the problem | 12:42 |
| webchat98 | it was ext4 and grub would pick it up google said it had to be fat | 12:42 |
| webchat98 | so i changed it to fat but it formatted | 12:42 |
| webchat98 | how do i get all of this | 12:43 |
| webchat98 | to grub | 12:43 |
| ramblebamble | webchat98 you have a PM | 12:47 |
| jjakob | that sounds like a nightmare. but I've had and solved problems like that in the past. | 12:56 |
| jjakob | not on 20.04 with uefi though, that needs some efi system partition and fat fs (if you boot in uefi mode) | 12:57 |
| jjakob | but generally every os should have grub with os-prober, which should detect the os on the other drive and make a boot option for it, but the other drive's luks must be opened and mounted, so that it can detect it | 12:58 |
| jjakob | which is why I don't do separate drives or luks volumes any more, but use just one drive with one luks volume spanning the whole drive and then put lvm on it and all the os's and partitions into lvm | 13:00 |
| jjakob | no matter into which os you boot it should have unlocked the luks+lvm that holds all the other os's | 13:00 |
| jjakob | but generally I just stay away from multi booting in general and stick to one host os and use VMs, or just switch out the hard drive physically | 13:01 |
| webchat98 | jjakob hi thanks | 13:26 |
| webchat98 | have you heard of this | 13:26 |
| webchat98 | grub-install: error: failed to get canonical path of `/dev/sdb1'. | 13:27 |

| webchat24 | it p[icks up regular ubuntu on sda1 | 13:45 |
| webchat24 | but not LUKS uybuntu on sdb | 13:45 |
| jjakob | webchat24: did you bind mount /dev into the chroot? | 13:47 |
| jjakob | you need to luks open both the drives, then mount /boot manually | 13:48 |
| webchat24 | yes | 13:48 |
| jjakob | you can regenerate /boot if you deleted it manually | 13:48 |
| webchat24 | yes i dleleted it | 13:48 |

| webchat24 | i installed ubuntu regular on a different device and grub took over it | 15:14 |

| nuxer | from what I googled up it's a mismatch in the xserver-org-input-all or smth; I have a Nvidia GPU and was just updating my packages | 15:29 |
| nuxer | however none of the proposed solutions to boot into terminal, grub, safe mode, anything, none of them work | 15:30 |
| nuxer | the keyboard does come on during boot (as uefi/bios runs the check the light blinks) | 15:30 |
| leftyfb | nuxer: does your keyboard work in the BIOS? | 15:31 |
| nuxer | leftyfb: yes | 15:31 |
| nuxer | it seems to be a common problem judging from the forums | 15:32 |
| nuxer | couldn't have happened at a worse time | 15:32 |
| nuxer | I have no sshd running so I'm completely screwed as for i.e. reinstalling apt packages to fix it via remote access | 15:32 |

| nuxer | I was deploying gsmlinux stuff on it and that might've caused things to go boom | 15:34 |
| nuxer | leftyfb: hm, well, people have been having that issue for pretty long and the most common thing is that there's some looping going on with the xorg server and what was it again.. let me check | 15:35 |
| leftyfb | nuxer: was it working before you were messing with gsmlinux? | 15:35 |
| nuxer | leftyfb: xserver-xorg-input-all seems to be the apt package | 15:35 |
| nuxer | oh yes | 15:35 |
| nuxer | it's not exactly the first time I'm installing a Linux. I remember getting that same kind of stuck thing on some previous distro build on another computer, I solved it somehow | 15:36 |
| leftyfb | nuxer: I would suggest reinstall ubuntu from scratch and not messing with gsmlinux. Or contact them for support the next time their software causes major issues like this | 15:36 |
| nuxer | leftyfb: it may or may not have been their stuff tho, but that was one of the things I was doing | 15:37 |
| nuxer | people have been saying that grub has some kind of an issue with especially the xserver-xorg-input-all package and I've been trying to chroot from a livecd to be able to install it (it indeed had not been installed) | 15:38 |
| leftyfb | nuxer: ok, lets eliminate it then. Reinstall and do all the regular updates and see if it happens again. You aid you have tried multiple solutions you found, there's no telling the state the system is in now even if you did get usb working again. Start fresh with a known good state | 15:39 |
| nuxer | apt gives me weird "temporarily unavailable" errors on chroot from livecd although it otherwise finds the apt repos and d/l's etc. | 15:39 |
| nuxer | yeah I guess I'll have to do that | 15:39 |
| nuxer | it just blows when I've already sank a few days as usual into this ... there's always something. the distro shipped out broken as it was, I first tried installing the latest LTS, then I just caved in and went for impish | 15:41 |
| nuxer | (also because the latest LTS doesn't have the latest Python [3.9] required for conda; deadsnakes PPA doesn't help with that ) | 15:41 |
| leftyfb | nuxer: reinstall. If you run into an issue on your fresh install, we are here to try to help | 15:41 |
| nuxer | leftyfb: thanks a lot ... I know today's probably not the best day to be asking for help | 15:42 |
| nuxer | I do have a working 20.10 impish desktop but it's a way different setup. I might as well just nuke and pave | 15:42 |

| nuxer | leftyfb: I kinda need the LinuxGSM though to deploy some of my dedicated local server stuff for testing purposes and not enter the madhouse over it... idk, maybe it'd be a good thing if it was possible to check out what apt-packages were installed before it all went to hell. | 15:44 |
| nuxer | I do explicitly remember having the same kind of issue with another desktop on either a clean install or after updating | 15:45 |
| leftyfb | nuxer: again, reinstall. Get to a known good state. If everything is fine. Great. Then proceed with gsmlinux and hit them up for support if things go wrong | 15:45 |
| nuxer | what I do not understand is why doesn't any of the grub menu options work | 15:46 |
| nuxer | a.k.a. holding the shift key, whatever | 15:46 |
| nuxer | holding shift or holding e... | 15:46 |
| leftyfb | nuxer: please get to a known good state. Good luck | 15:46 |
| webchat36 | hi i cant access my os | 15:48 |
| webchat36 | its LUKS ubuntu | 15:48 |
| webchat36 | how do i get my grub to pick it up | 15:48 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: is the /boot inside the luks? | 15:52 |
| webchat36 | no | 15:52 |
| webchat36 | i deleted it by accident | 15:52 |
| webchat36 | all i have is root filesystem | 15:52 |
| EriC^^ | use a live usb to chroot into it, then make /boot again and install kernels/grub | 15:53 |
| EriC^^ | and you'll need to use the uuid in fstab for /boot, mkfs.ext4 -U <uuid-here> /dev/sdxY | 15:53 |
| JustCurious | Hi, I have an external hard drive that cannot be mounted nor iniciated, it does not appear on disks and gparted keep running stucked when connected. It's /dev/sdc, it has no sdc1 partition, don't know what to do, it's a Western Digital My Passport HD | 15:59 |
| JustCurious | I've tried to connect it on Windows 7 and it's not recoverable | 15:59 |
| leftyfb | JustCurious: buy a new one | 16:00 |
| JustCurious | NTFS formatted by the way | 16:00 |
| JustCurious | yes leftyfb this is the easiest solution | 16:00 |
| JustCurious | it's 100 € | 16:00 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ ok i am ready to create new /dev/sdxY wiith UUID. how to ge t uuid | 16:00 |
| leftyfb | JustCurious: if the data is worth it, you'll have to find and pay a company that specializes in data recovery | 16:00 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: grep boot /etc/fstab | 16:01 |
| JustCurious | it's just for backup my data, I'd like to safe the HD | 16:02 |
| EriC^^ | JustCurious: type 'sudo apt-get install smartmontools && sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdc | nc termbin.com 9999' | 16:02 |
| EriC^^ | to see the hdd health | 16:03 |
| webchat36 | eric | 16:03 |
| webchat36 | mkfs.ect4 says | 16:03 |
| webchat36 | Discarding device blocks: done | 16:03 |
| webchat36 | /dev/sdb2: could not parse UUID: 01AB-3119 | 16:03 |
| leftyfb | JustCurious: it's defective. Buy a new one. This is also not an ubuntu issue | 16:03 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: that's not for boot | 16:03 |
| webchat36 | your right | 16:04 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: type 'cat /etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999' | 16:04 |
| JustCurious | thanks EriC^^ | 16:05 |
| EriC^^ | JustCurious: no problem, paste the link here when you have it | 16:05 |
| webchat36 | thats someone else | 16:05 |
| webchat36 | https://paste.debian.net/1225384/ | 16:06 |
| JustCurious | installing GSmartControl | 16:06 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ see it | 16:06 |
| leftyfb | JustCurious: EriC^^ did not suggest installing GSmartControl | 16:06 |
| JustCurious | it's its GUI | 16:07 |
| JustCurious | it stucks while running smartclr | 16:08 |
| JustCurious | it's like the sdc interrupts the process | 16:08 |
| leftyfb | JustCurious: yes, we are aware. It does not help with troubleshooting. EriC^^ asked you to install smartmontools for a very specific reason | 16:08 |
| leftyfb | JustCurious: run this is a new terminal and let it run while you are messing with the drive: dmesg -Tw | 16:09 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ can you help me mkfs boot and install linux/kernel | 16:09 |
| leftyfb | JustCurious: if you see tons of error messages about your drive, it is a hardware issue and you are unlikely to get any useful data from the drive | 16:09 |
| leftyfb | JustCurious: also, as stated, even if you do succeed in recovering anything from the drive, the drive is toast and there is no using it going forward | 16:10 |
| JustCurious | it's all : "Buffer I/O error on dev sdc, logical block 976746224, async page read" | 16:10 |
| JustCurious | don't think so | 16:10 |
| leftyfb | you don't think the drive is toast? | 16:10 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: yeah | 16:11 |
| webchat36 | thanks | 16:11 |
| JustCurious | please leftyfb let people here help me | 16:11 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: so til now you booted the live usb, and you decrypted and mounted root, mount binded /dev /sys ... and ran chroot right? | 16:12 |
| webchat36 | mounted unencrypted ubuntu installation 20.04 bran new on /dev/sda, trying tyo recover dev/sdb | 16:12 |
| webchat36 | yes i have mounted those | 16:12 |
| EriC^^ | JustCurious: leftyfb is kind of right, the drive seems likely is toast but still it's worth a shot to see what can be done and what to retrieve | 16:12 |
| webchat36 | and not chroot yet | 16:13 |
| webchat36 | becuase i must first mount | 16:13 |
| webchat36 | /boot after mkfs | 16:13 |
| webchat36 | then chroot | 16:13 |
| EriC^^ | JustCurious: first be sure it's not some connection issue, as that can also cause i/o errors | 16:13 |
| webchat36 | everything mounted except /boot | 16:13 |
| webchat36 | need to mkfs /boot but i dont know uuid | 16:14 |
| webchat36 | i pasted it | 16:14 |
| webchat36 | the cat | 16:14 |
| JustCurious | ok | 16:14 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: where didyou mount the decrypted root fs? /mnt? | 16:14 |
| JustCurious | the the result: /dev/sdc: Unknown USB bridge [0x1058:0x25e2 (0x4004)] | 16:14 |
| webchat36 | yes | 16:14 |
| JustCurious | well, maybe it's broken yes | 16:14 |
| JustCurious | 100 $ again | 16:14 |
| JustCurious | :( | 16:14 |
| webchat36 | mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev | 16:14 |
| webchat36 | mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts | 16:14 |
| webchat36 | mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc | 16:15 |

| EriC^^ | sorry | 16:15 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: ok type 'cat /mnt/etc/fstab | nc termbin.com 9999' | 16:15 |
| EriC^^ | JustCurious: how important is the data on it to you? if you have it already then i'd just get another hdd, if its not a connection issue its likely some failure and not reliable anyways | 16:16 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ i paste it here https://paste.debian.net/1225385/ | 16:16 |
| JustCurious | EriC^^ not important the data, only the HD | 16:16 |
| JustCurious | ok thank you for your help | 16:17 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: this is the uuid, db3eb633-0441-441f-a924-c721648dd052 | 16:17 |
| EriC^^ | JustCurious: no problem, sorry about the bad news | 16:17 |
| webchat36 | oh right the first time i didnt do it in mnt | 16:17 |
| JustCurious | Before leaving, let me advice you again purchasing Western Digital MyPassport HD | 16:18 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ mkfs succeeded | 16:18 |
| EriC^^ | ive been using seagate, they seem ok, my older one lasted like 10 years maybe | 16:18 |
| webchat36 | now how to install requiredments | 16:18 |
| webchat36 | im chroot | 16:19 |
| webchat36 | to /mnt | 16:19 |
| webchat36 | owait i must mount boot | 16:19 |
| JustCurious | then I'm to buy some seagate | 16:19 |
| JustCurious | thanks | 16:19 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ what do i do with /boot | 16:20 |
| webchat36 | i mean not /boot | 16:20 |
| webchat36 | i mean the filesystem i just created for /boot | 16:20 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: reinstall the kernel and grub, apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-generic grub-efi-amd64-signed grub-efi-amd64-bin grub-common grub2-common | 16:20 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: ah | 16:20 |
| EriC^^ | mount it, type "mount /boot" | 16:20 |
| EriC^^ | in the chroot | 16:20 |
| webchat36 | should i do mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/boot | 16:21 |
| webchat36 | before i chroot | 16:21 |
| webchat36 | to mnt | 16:21 |
| EriC^^ | doesn't matter, might as well chroot then run 'mount /boot' to test if its working with fstab | 16:21 |
| EriC^^ | also 'mount /boot/efi' after | 16:22 |
| ice9 | which sip softphone do you recommend? | 16:22 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ mount boot worked | 16:23 |
| webchat36 | mount boot/efi didnt | 16:23 |
| webchat36 | mount point doesnt excist | 16:23 |
| webchat36 | i mounted it bewforte chroot though | 16:23 |
| EriC^^ | ah right, type mkdir /boot/efi | 16:23 |
| nuxer | ok so I managed to get into the terminal login via esc on boot, but even after editing grub and updating it with the default CMDLINE pointing to "text" it still goes to the damn xwindow manager and hence paralyses the keyboard and mouse (the kb and mouse DO work when I press esc and boot into safe/recovery mode) | 16:23 |
| nuxer | in other words, what do I need to put where to stop ubuntu impish from booting into xwindow | 16:24 |
| webchat36 | now do i install with apt | 16:24 |
| EriC^^ | yeah | 16:24 |
| nuxer | I'm still going to check that avenue if I can get things to work via terminal since it works in safe mode thatway | 16:24 |
| nuxer | GRUB_CMLDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text" ... sudo update-grub =>> didn't help, it still boots to GUI. | 16:26 |
| nuxer | all I'd need right now is to prevent the Ubuntu from booting into GUI | 16:27 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ ok installed now what] | 16:27 |
| webchat36 | W: Couldn't identify type of root file system for fsck hook | 16:27 |
| webchat36 | look like it worked but says this error | 16:27 |
| EriC^^ | nuxer: text is deprecated kind of, try 'systemd.unit=multi-user.target' | 16:28 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: looks good i guess, ls -l /boot shows kernels and grub dir? | 16:29 |
| webchat36 | eric it shows efi and grub dirs, and initrd.img and vmlinuz | 16:30 |
| EriC^^ | there should be /boot/grub/grub.cfg and /boot/grub/x86_64-efi full of modules | 16:30 |
| webchat36 | no only /boot/grub/grub.cfg.new | 16:30 |
| webchat36 | and | 16:30 |
| webchat36 | and the module | 16:31 |
| webchat36 | s | 16:31 |
| EriC^^ | modules there? | 16:31 |
| webchat36 | yes | 16:31 |
| EriC^^ | good | 16:31 |
| EriC^^ | try 'update-grub' see if it makes a /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 16:31 |
| webchat36 | no | 16:32 |
| webchat36 | it only creates | 16:32 |
| webchat36 | grub.cfg.new | 16:32 |
| webchat36 | i renamed it it was created again | 16:32 |
| webchat36 | after update-grub | 16:32 |
| EriC^^ | odd, so now you have grub.cfg though cause you renamed right? | 16:32 |
| KBar | nuxer: `systemctl set-default multi-user.target` | 16:33 |
| KBar | nuxer: also try appending `systemd.unit=multi-user.target` to the kernel command line. | 16:34 |
| KBar | nuxer: or just disable your DM with systemctl. Whichever way you prefer, really. | 16:35 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^should i rename it to grub.cfg | 16:35 |
| webchat36 | EriC^^ | 16:35 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: yeah try that | 16:36 |
| nuxer | yep, I disabled gdm3 via recovery mode and when I manually start it up from the terminal it no longer hangs up! | 16:36 |
| nuxer | whew | 16:36 |
| nuxer | ;) | 16:36 |
| KBar | ah, okay | 16:36 |
| nuxer | it was this apt package that needed to be (re)installed: xserver-xorg-input-all | 16:37 |
| nuxer | apparently it's a common problem. | 16:37 |
| KBar | nuxer: touchpad problems? | 16:37 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: it seems that grub makes .new when there is an error in /etc/default/grub or the /etc/grub.d files | 16:37 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: can you pastebin 'cat /etc/default/grub' ? | 16:38 |
| EriC^^ | webchat36: also pastebin with it 'ls -l /etc/grub.d' | 16:39 |

| icedwater | I have a wireless driver that works on kernel 4.13, I'm trying to get it to run on 5.11 - any tips? I assume there's no newer package for drivers... | 17:11 |
| KBar | icedwater: is that Ubuntu 18.04? What wireless adapter are we talking about? | 17:14 |
| icedwater | KBar: ubuntu 20.04, it's a broadcom running intel wifi I think | 17:36 |
| icedwater | scrap that, lspci says 'Intel Corporation Wireless 3160 (rev 93)' | 17:37 |
| icedwater | lsmod shows the iwlwifi module is loaded on 4.13, but it doesn't show up on 5.11 | 17:38 |
| icedwater | Ugh, gotta double-check before I ask questions. The current 5.x kernel I'm trying is 5.13 | 17:39 |
| icedwater | Let me try that again... | 17:40 |
| icedwater | I have an intel wifi card that works on the 4.13 kernel with ubuntu 20.04, but when I boot with a 5.13 kernel, wifi is not detected. | 17:40 |
| KBar | Soon, we'll find out that you're actually running W******, eh? :) | 17:40 |
| icedwater | KBar: heh | 17:41 |
| KBar | Does it work with the default 5.11? | 17:41 |
| icedwater | Is 5.11 a default? | 17:42 |
| icedwater | I think no, but I've been trying a bunch of 5.x kernels and uninstalling them, so I'd have to check again | 17:42 |
| icedwater | I'll try again with 5.11.0-22-generic | 17:43 |
| KBar | icedwater: for Focal currently 5.11.0.43.47~20.04.21 | 17:46 |
| Jeremy31 | icedwater: You might want to check to see if the linux-module-extra is installed for that 5.13 kernel | 17:50 |

| webchat64 | How do I install the audio driver for Realtek I2S Audio | 19:11 |
| webchat64 | I installed 20.04 on my rca cambio tablet. I used the linixium image because it had 32bit efi, and everything worked but I had no audio. | 19:12 |
| webchat64 | I looked up others who might have the problem with this device and it needs this Realtek I2S Audio driver, but this was not installed even though I have enabled non-free software. | 19:13 |
| leftyfb | webchat64: non-free is not a repository in ubuntu | 19:15 |
| leftyfb | webchat64: you are using a heavily modified version of ubuntu which cannot be supported here. You should seek support from linuxium | 19:16 |
| leftyfb | webchat64: several contact methods can be found at the bottom of https://www.linuxium.com.au/home | 19:17 |
| geirha | Pretty sure they just mean restricted and multiverse. The installer calls it "non-free" | 19:21 |

| leftyfb | MrCollinsGA: boot to a live cd/usb and fix the issue with the sudoers file you created | 22:22 |
| MrCollinsGA | leftyfb, when I boot what should I do to it? | 22:23 |
| MrCollinsGA | ill boot into it now.... | 22:23 |

| MrCollinsGA | ok | 22:24 |
| leftyfb | MrCollinsGA: are you bayman or is there someone else who just borked their machine with an ansible file in sudoers? | 22:31 |
