[00:07] <jambs> hi guis
[00:07] <arooni> i used utm to install ubuntu as a vm; but after installation of the server it just hangs
[00:09] <matsaman> arooni: so the installation finished and then what happened?
[00:09] <matsaman> jambs: ohio
[00:09] <jakes> matsaman, looking for a more generic "proper" mechanism or subsystem - dbus? - so that it's not just *my* spotify, but anyone connecting to arbitrary BT speaker, spotify, youtube music, ithing, podcast, etc
[00:09] <arooni> matsaman : installation finishes; then it asks to reboot; then it goes back to the installation wizard over again
[00:09] <arooni> its like the install never happened
[00:09] <arooni> same thing happened twice now
[00:09] <jakes> the media platform is arbitrary - the controls of whatever's playing is what's needed
[00:10] <matsaman> jakes: hrmmm
[00:10] <jakes> for instance, even on my car, if/when I connect via BT, it comes up with artists, track, time/progress & basic controls
[00:10] <matsaman> arooni: oh, stop telling it about your install media and let it boot without it
[00:11] <arooni> ah so its trying to boot again from the install media?
[00:11] <arooni> how do i tell it to ignore it
[00:12] <matsaman> jakes: maybe 'playerctl' or the like
[00:12] <matsaman> arooni: by un-telling it however you told it in the first place
[00:12] <matsaman> sorry I haven't used UTM before
[00:12] <matsaman> normally you have to explicitly tell a VM system where your install media is
[00:12] <matsaman> undo that part
[00:12] <matsaman> or find the 'eject' feature, etc.
[00:13] <arooni> https://imgur.com/a/HzosppI ;; new to this vm software myself :P
[00:13] <jakes> matsaman, that seems to be heading in right direction, yea
[00:13] <matsaman> jakes: and stuff like https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/MPRIS#Bluetooth
[00:13]  * matsaman shrugs
[00:13] <arooni> i think i want the second option
[00:13] <arooni> ah ha
[00:13] <matsaman> I'm sure you can pull it off somehow
[00:13] <arooni> yes i do
[00:13] <arooni> :)
[00:14] <arooni> mission accomplished; of course it was trying to boot again with the install media; makes sense
[00:14] <jakes> swweet - know where to start looking, thanks
[00:14] <matsaman> arooni: yup, regular "dumb" boot system
[00:14] <matsaman> still better than trying to read your mind and being random
[00:14] <arooni> virtualbox was way easier to setup
[00:16] <matsaman> yep
[00:17] <matsaman> probably Parallels would've been similarly easy
[00:17] <matsaman> haven't used that either
[00:17] <matsaman> and VMWare I think does ARM now
[00:17] <matsaman> or, M1, anyway
[00:17] <arooni> i should look into parallels
[00:17] <matsaman> parallels is very mac specific, like UTM I'm guessing
[00:18] <matsaman> VMware is far more popular in the macOS world than outside of it, for desktop usage anyway, but
[00:18] <matsaman> it _is_ cross platform
[00:18] <matsaman> the most portable knowledge gained would probably be via VMware
[00:19] <matsaman> very VirtualBox-like GUI
[00:35] <jsbach> hi is there a way to sort search results on a file manager(nemo) according to criteria(time)?
[00:36] <sarnold> try holding down the alt key, that might make some menus appear
[00:36] <sarnold> try right clicking, there might be something there
[00:37] <jsbach> sarnold, negativ
[00:37] <sarnold> bummer
[00:37] <Sqaure> is userspace = not using sudo?
[00:38] <sarnold> Sqaure: no, the "other" is kernel space -- executing inside the kernel
[00:38] <jsbach> Sqaure, sudo is pretending someone else. You can pretend to be the user cups with sudo
[00:39] <jsbach> are there kinda plugins for nemo for those kinda tasks?
[00:40] <Sqaure> sarnold, jsbach : Do you understand what they mean by userspace here https://github.com/golang/go/issues/42525 ?
[00:41] <Sqaure> "user namespace" is a term i never heard
[00:41] <sarnold> ahhh, that's still something else entirely
[00:42] <jsbach> Sqaure, well aight. user as namespace.. that is wierd. i know user and kernel space
[00:43] <sarnold> Sqaure: the linux kernel has a bunch of 'namespaces' avaialble to work with -- filesystem namespace, network namespace, pid namespace, user namespace, etc
[00:43] <sarnold> Sqaure: most of those operations require using a "privileged process" -- something with capabilities -- which, usually means root
[00:44] <Sqaure> sarnold, thanks!
[00:44] <sarnold> Sqaure: the 'user namespaces' lets an unprivileged process create a new 'user namespace' where it looks like it has root capabilities, and you can have multiple new user ids, group ids, etc within it..
[00:45] <sarnold> Sqaure: try running 'unshare -Urm' -- that'll get you a new usernamespace, where your uid is mapped as root, and a new mount namespace. try issuing some mount -o bind ... mount calls in there, and see what mount outputs within that shell, and what mount outputs outside that shell
[00:47] <Sqaure> sarnold, thanks. Ill try that.
[00:52] <rdr> can anyone point me to a resource for getting delete to work properly over SSH?  It works great locally, but over ssh it either acts as DEL, does nothing, or weird stuff, seemingly depending on the shell?
[00:53] <rdr> oh i just realized that the server is running Debian, maybe you guys can't help me here
[00:54] <sarnold> rdr: the usual problem is the $TERM environment variable on the remote side references a terminal that doesn't have terminfo or termcap or something like that on the remote side
[00:54] <sarnold> this old guide mentions *motif* programs, so .. it's old. https://tldp.org/HOWTO/Keyboard-and-Console-HOWTO-5.html
[00:55] <rdr> your info is helpful sarnold thank you
[00:55] <sarnold> but I haven't actually seen this problem in *ages*. I don't know if that's because I just don't ssh in to as many interesting places as I used to, or what..
[00:55] <rdr> it seems to work with bash
[00:55] <rdr> maybe it's somesthing in my zshrc
[00:55] <rdr> i had messed something up on my terminal emulator troubleshooting
[01:00] <rdr> hmm, looks like both vim and this obscure editor i have been using (tilde
[01:00] <rdr> ) do weird things with Delete.  But nano is fine
[01:01] <Sunrise> Ubuntu or Firefox doesn't want me to watch this video. They seem very picky about what I can watch on the LIVE cd.
[01:03] <rdr> might be codec related
[01:04] <Sunrise> It seems quite discriminatory, rdr
[01:05] <Bashing-om> !info restricted-extras focal
[01:07] <Bashing-om> !info ubuntu-restricted-addons focal
[01:07] <sarnold> 11kb? heh, does it still do anything?

[01:10] <Kolusion> Does anyone know why I can't install packages using a live CD session?
[01:10] <Kolusion> I have access to the internet through the system
[01:10] <sarnold> what's the error message you get?
[01:11] <Kolusion> none, it just cant find the package
[01:11] <Kolusion> i checked the sources.list file and it all looks fine
[01:11] <Kolusion> I not there is a 781MB upgrade available.
[01:11] <Bashing-om> Kolusion: "universe" repo enabled ?
[01:11] <Kolusion> *note
[01:11] <Kolusion> Yes
[01:12] <sarnold> did you get any errors from the apt update step?
[01:12] <Kolusion> I am running it now
[01:12] <Kolusion> Its updating
[01:13] <Kolusion> Perhaps the live CD needs to update the packages its running first
[01:13] <Kolusion> We will see in 15 mins :)
[01:13] <sarnold> oh my
[01:13] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: ' apt show ubuntu-restricted-extras ' note what is said of libdvdcss2 .
[01:14] <Kolusion> i changed the sources.list to 'main universe' to just 'main'. It made no difference, all packages still wanted to update
[01:15] <Kolusion> Anyway, its running. We'll see soon :)
[01:16] <Kolusion> I had to kill the VM and add more RAM before as the VM froze while installing upgrades
[01:17] <Kolusion> painful
[01:17] <sarnold> I hope that extra memory helps it kick along a little quicker
[01:18] <Kolusion> It hasn't made a difference, but it will allow for the installation to complete. It ran out of memory before. Remember this is a live enviornment. :)
[01:18] <Kolusion> its a 800MB upgrade
[01:20] <oerheks> have fun with it ;-D
[01:20] <oerheks> sure you need 4 gb..
[01:20] <Kolusion> dont say that lol
[01:21] <Kolusion> i went from 2 and 3gb now
[01:21] <Kolusion> it should be ok
[01:22] <sarnold> if you're installing 800megs of updates into a live instance, that might be over a gigabyte of memory just on "disk" contents
[01:23] <Kolusion> yes, it froze befoe while installing at 22%, that was with 2GB of memory, now I have 3GB. i should be fine
[01:23] <Kolusion> sorry it froze at 4%
[01:23] <Kolusion> Its currently installing at 8%
[01:24] <oerheks> but no wobbly windows?
[01:24] <Kolusion> im doing it at the real terminal
[01:25] <Kolusion> should have killed GDM
[01:25] <Kolusion> OMFG
[01:25] <Kolusion> "No space left on drive" lol
[01:27] <Kolusion> Now trying again with 4GB
[01:30] <Kolusion> BBS
[01:52] <Kolusion> updated with error code 1
[01:53] <Kolusion> seems to be a bug
[01:54] <Kolusion> is there someone that is able to boot a 20.04 LTS CD and do it with me
[01:55] <Kolusion> I boot a live disc and then as soon as it goes to the screen asking me if i want to try or install, the press alt+control F6 to go to a terminal, I login, then I try to install a package and it says it cannot be found
[01:57] <sarnold> are you sure the package you want to install exists for the release you're booting?
[01:57] <Kolusion> Yes
[01:57] <Kolusion> https://i.ibb.co/D4pHy9S/Untitled.png
[01:57] <Kolusion> This does not look good
[01:58] <Kolusion> Well it kind of does actually
[01:58] <Kolusion> What do others think?
[01:59] <sarnold> those colours are certainly a bit bright for my taste, my own terminals are a bit more subdued, hehe
[01:59] <Kolusion> haha
[01:59] <Kolusion> it is just stock
[02:00] <Kolusion> So why can't packages me installed?
[02:01] <sarnold> are you sure your package is in main or restricted?
[02:01] <Kolusion> Yes
[02:01] <Kolusion> aircrack-ng
[02:01] <sarnold> Filename: pool/universe/a/aircrack-ng/aircrack-ng_1.6-4_amd64.deb
[02:01] <sarnold> universe
[02:01] <sarnold> add universe, try again
[02:02] <Kolusion> It is, see the screen shot again
[02:02] <sarnold> Kolusion: I see only main and restricted on https://i.ibb.co/D4pHy9S/Untitled.png
[02:02] <Kolusion> O
[02:02] <Kolusion> I see, yes you are right
[02:02] <Kolusion> I will add it now :)
[02:04] <Kolusion> SoMeThInGs HaPpEnInG :)
[02:04] <sarnold> i can feel it!
[02:04] <Kolusion> LMFAO
[02:05] <Kolusion> Thank you Sir for your assistance.
[02:05] <Kolusion> Have a good day and good bye!
[02:05] <sarnold> gn8 :)
[02:25] <lilgopher> how can I see the options I can use for apt install? I tried "apt install --help" with no luck
[02:26] <sarnold> lilgopher: man apt-get
[02:26] <sarnold> apt passes through a lot of things to apt
[02:26] <sarnold> sigh stupid brain
[02:26] <sarnold> apt passes through a lot of things to apt-get
[02:35] <Sunrise> can someone please remind me of the ubuntu command to see the drives and how much is on them? Or is there a gui for that?
[02:39] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: ' df -h ' is my goto .
[02:46] <DoYouKnow> does ubuntu have any national ties?
[02:46] <Sunrise> Bashing-om: is that actually showing the hard drives? the biggest thing there is a USB stick
[02:46] <sarnold> Sunrise: lsblk perhaps?
[02:47] <Sunrise> sarnold: looking
[02:48] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: No - shows the partition info on the booted drive. maybe is ' sudo fdisk -lu ' you want to look at ?
[02:49] <sarnold> Sunrise: "how much is on them" is more a filesystem question, which is why Bashing-om went for du :)
[02:49] <sarnold> Sunrise: lsblk knows the devices but afair doesn't interrogate any filesystems that might be on them to figure out how much might be used
[02:50] <Sunrise> https://pastebin.com/8zA5ZSv6
[02:51] <DoYouKnow> I was wondering because I have schizophrenia and was wondering what the best OS is that doesn't hide etiology in terms of webcams and things like that
[02:52] <Sunrise> https://pastebin.com/hUiirVqW  df -h
[02:54] <Sunrise> there is an ssd and a spinner drive
[02:54] <DoYouKnow> the best OS for that I suspect I've found is Windows Server 2022, surprisingly
[02:58] <Sunrise> this is pretty encyclopedic https://pastebin.com/xtJCjD6y
[02:58] <Sunrise> is it not seeing the spinner drive?
[03:00] <sarnold> Sunrise: that's what that looks like
[03:00] <sarnold> DoYouKnow: I don't know what problem you're trying to solve..
[03:01] <Sunrise> sarnold: thanks ... is there a way to make it do that?
[03:01] <sarnold> Sunrise: check the sata connectors, check the power connectors, check bios?
[03:01] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: If Bios does not see the drive - the kernel can not see it.
[03:16] <lilgopher> thanks sarnold
[03:17] <sarnold> lilgopher: sorted? :)
[03:19] <lilgopher> kind of, all the options are in the man page for sure, I guess apt-get doesnt have a specific help page for each subcommand
[03:26] <sarnold> yeah.. there's gobs of apt docs, but not always the docs I want :) heh
[03:30] <Bashing-om> !apt-get | lilgopher See if this helps -
[03:33] <Liblx> Hello, how can I move a collection of digiKam without reading the photos in again?
[03:53] <Liblx> Oh, and I got several messages of ChanServ that this channel is logged naming the terms. What should I do?
[03:55] <matsaman> Liblx: read them, assess, move on
[03:58] <Liblx> matsaman: So, no confirmation, click or anything? Because I get the message several times.
[03:58] <matsaman> Liblx: pastebin what you're seeing: https://dpaste.com/
[04:01] <Liblx> matsaman: https://dpaste.com/4VYAP7P54
[04:02] <Liblx> Matsaman: it shows every 6-7 minutes.
[04:06] <matsaman> Liblx: you can ignore that. It's an issue with your IRC client at most
[04:07] <Liblx> matsaman: Alright. Thanks.
[05:06] <Sunrise> Bashing-om: https://pastebin.com/Nc2GE5jU sudo parted  -l
[05:07] <Sunrise> that seems to show the ssd and spinner?
[05:10] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: looking ^ .
[05:11] <Sunrise> thankies :)
[05:14] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Odd here that sda (1st drive) is not annotated. Any further info from ' ls /dev/disk/by-uuid -alh ' ?
[05:15] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: ^^ What your parted output shows is an SSD and the USB thumb drive - No hard drive is seen.
[05:16] <Sunrise> Bashing-om: ah
[05:16] <Sunrise> i'll reboot and take a look
[05:16] <Sunrise> no sense thinking it's there if it isn't
[05:17] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: make sure you see all drives in the bios splash scrren. Else most likely hard ware ( wiring too) issues.
[05:17] <Bashing-om> screen*
[05:19] <Sunrise> https://pastebin.com/7SDDPB2T Bashing-om
[05:20] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Nope no hard drive ^ - where it can be expected to be "sda" if it were to exist to the kernel.
[05:22] <Sunrise> ok
[05:22] <Sunrise> it may not actually have it.
[05:22] <Sunrise> still the box won't boot .. doesn't see the drive.
[05:22] <Sunrise> either way
[05:25] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Something has that 1st slot - The kernel will identify the 1st drive detected as 'sda', the 2nd sdb, and the third as sdc. So the nystery here is why not sda assigned ??
[05:25] <Bashing-om> mystery*
[05:29] <Sunrise> Interesting.
[05:29] <Sunrise> it's a physical question then, still. plus bios.
[05:30] <ravage> does "dmesg|grep sda" show anything?
[05:31] <Sunrise> i talked hubby out of his linux box. the Ryzen that "doesn't work" .. might be video card.
[05:31] <Sunrise> ill look, ravage :)
[05:33] <Sunrise> ravage: https://pastebin.com/RA6WPvTw
[05:34] <ravage> that looks like damaged hardware or at least cable to me
[05:35] <Sunrise> ravage: what happened was a power failure to the box. the UPS discharged and both computers drained.
[05:36] <Sunrise> it was fine when i went to bed.. woke up to nothing.
[05:37] <ravage> try another sata port on the board and/or another cable
[05:37] <ravage> if the problem is still there the drive is broken
[05:39] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: In such a case of sudden loss of power - one makes up a liveUSB of the same release as installed ( got that installer still on-hand ?) and run a file system check/repair from that live environment.
[05:40] <Sunrise> Bashing-om: i wish i knew what i did with it.
[05:40] <Sunrise> we are trying to make a backup of hubby's win 10 computer.. taking two days
[05:41] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Is this a lap top machine, where it will be a pain to get down to the drive cables ?
[05:41] <Sunrise> someone suggested hirens but downloading here is a pain
[05:42] <Sunrise> Bashing-om: nope. HP desktop full sized.
[05:43] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Then as ravage comments - with box fully powered down - might try moving the sata cables connections around - see what changes.
[05:43] <Sunrise> will i need to fix it in the bios after that?
[05:44] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: No - bios will pick up the changed hardware.
[05:45] <Sunrise> cool
[05:45] <Sunrise> i'll give it a shot
[05:45] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Bios passes to the kernel the hardwares that are detected.
[05:45] <Sunrise> i wish i knew more what to look at in bios
[05:46] <Sunrise> there are lots of things to tweak, and i don't know them
[05:46] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Don't we all ! Like any operating system no one person knows it all :D
[05:46] <Sunrise> :)
[05:47] <Sunrise> i'd post pictures but without the computer to modify them ...
[05:49] <Sunrise> I'll be back .. unless i break it better
[05:50] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Worst case - one can always reset bios to factory defaults :P
[05:51] <Sunrise> i did that. didn't help.
[05:54] <Sunrise> the question might be, whether i need to make some kind of change to get it to see that 1st drive instead of whatever the computer was born with, no?
[05:55] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Well - Humm .. one *CAN* disable a hard drive in the bios settings.
[05:56] <Sunrise> could that have happened in the loss of power or me resetting to the defaults?
[05:58] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: Possible for sure - I tell ya the truth - my system has a weak CMOS battery - everytime I experience a loss of power my bios is alwats some kind of messed up.
[05:59] <Sunrise> boy. that's a thought. the laptop was dead, i thought and the new cmos battery brought it back to life.
[06:03] <Sunrise> i guess i need to see what cmos battery it has while i'm in there
[06:03] <amateur-god> hey i was wondering if anyone could help me with an issue im having with a ubuntu VM via multipass on windows via HyperV
[06:05] <Bashing-om> Sunrise: The beginning of all of this troubleshooting is to make sure that bios is aware of both drives. If bios is not happy - no one is happy.
[06:07] <Sunrise> lemee see.
[06:08] <amateur-god> does anyone know why the drive i have mounted to my VM in multipass with the multipass mount command i can see all the files in the VM but then if i navigate to it on the host machine (windows) im unable to see the files created by the VM?
[06:09] <leftyfb> amateur-god: that would be a Windows problem
[06:10] <amateur-god> leftyfb do you know if there is any way to fix it as it also means the files made in one VM arent visible in my other VM
[06:11] <leftyfb> amateur-god: ask in #windows
[06:11] <amateur-god> thank you
[07:53] <bobdobbs> Hi all. What is a half-decent SFTP client that is not filezila?
[07:58] <ravage> sftp:// in nautilus
[07:58] <lotuspsychje> bobdobbs: filezilla is fully decent
[07:59] <ravage> i like filezilla too. but that was not his question :)
[08:01] <shibboleth> uhm, something weird with my initramfs post-reboot, for some reason the cryptroot-unlock script isn't doing its thing
[08:01] <shibboleth> i can manually unlock the volume with cryptsetup, how do i resume boot after doing it manually?
[08:03] <tomreyn> shibboleth: ctrl-d
[08:03] <shibboleth> nope
[08:03] <tomreyn> then there were additional steps that needed doing
[08:04] <shibboleth> well, sure :)
[08:04] <tomreyn> in the initramfs stage, i mean
[08:05] <shibboleth> i can also manually mount / and stuff, just can't make initramfs drop to resume full boot
[08:05] <shibboleth> full/proper
[08:06] <shibboleth> which is weird, since it was booting a prev filesystem snapshot. doesn't make any sense that it doesn't boot this time since it *had to* work last time :)
[08:08] <shibboleth> anything in initramfs/scripts i can run manually?
[08:09] <lotuspsychje> shibboleth: is it possible you paste whats happening exactly, maybe volunteers might be able to help a better way
[08:10] <tomreyn> it could make sense if there was FS corruption
[08:10] <shibboleth> Please unlock disk foo_crypt: Error: Timeout reached while waiting for PID 1034.
[08:10] <tomreyn> oh thats one step before touching the FS
[08:10] <shibboleth> manual cryptsetup unlock works, same for manually mounting / afterwards
[08:11] <shibboleth> i could try manually mounting everything and regen initramfs but, eh... ideally i wanna avoid further issues/get locked out
[08:14] <tomreyn> there's not a lot of hits for this message on a web search. your ubuntu release is?
[08:14] <shibboleth> 1804
[08:14] <shibboleth> .6
[08:16] <shibboleth> i mean, presumably the "resume normal boot" step is covered in initramfs /bin/cryptroot-unlock, ideas?
[08:18] <tomreyn> so what happens when you hit ctrl-d or type exit?
[08:19] <tomreyn> after cryptroot-unlock, that is
[08:19] <shibboleth> well, it exits
[08:19] <shibboleth> but when sshing in afterwards it's still in initramfs
[08:20] <amazoniantoad> I'm trying to customize what happens when the sudo password is typed in incorrectly. How can I handle this?
[08:21] <tomreyn> shibboleth: i assume this is a separate issue not related to readying the luks device if that command retuns fine (besides of the timeout message)
[08:21] <tomreyn> so more like a FS issue then really
[08:22] <shibboleth> well, manually mounting the filesystems works
[08:22] <shibboleth> but, still initramfs/ramdisk
[08:23] <Guest59> how do I record my actions in gimp
[08:24] <shibboleth> you could use ffmpeg to record the xorg display
[08:24] <shibboleth> dunno about anything gimp-specific
[08:24] <Guest59> dude I was browsing how to record actions in gimp script-fu
[08:24] <Guest59> turns out google thinks it's unusual traffic
[08:25] <Guest59> also I felt like this shit is DEJAVU
[08:25] <Guest59> asf
[08:26] <Guest59> digital image manipulation must be sussy to them
[08:27] <tomreyn> Guest59: there's #google, this channel is about ubuntu support
[08:41] <shibboleth> ok, manually mounting and chrooting from initramfs+regen initramfs seems to have worked
[08:41] <shibboleth> weird
[08:47] <shibboleth> stillm uberweird since the timestamp/hash of the prev initramfs were identical to the initramfs that had to have worked on last reboot
[09:16] <Sunrise> I am back. There is definitely another hard drive in there. It's a Seagate
[09:17] <Sunrise> I can't get the sata plug to unplug from the SSD.  Neither SATA cable will come out of the sockets on the MB
[09:18] <Sunrise> the BIOS wasn't pointed to the SSD for booting.  I was hoping changing that would make it boot. It didn't.
[09:19] <gry> why would it be impossible to unplug an ssd from mobo? can you take a photo and share it with ##hardware ?
[09:20] <leejones_> After logging into ubuntu, I got an erroystem problem detectedr message: S
[09:20] <leejones_> After logging into ubuntu, I got an error message: System problem detected.
[09:20] <gry> did it work before?
[09:21] <leejones_> It worked fine beffore.
[09:21] <leejones_> It worked fine before.
[09:23] <gry> did you do anything that broke it? or it broke without you doing anything special (upgrade, for example)?
[09:41] <mannequin> what was the command to install system monitor indicator in unity on ubuntu?
[09:52] <Guest59> shotcut 21.12.24 version is broken for ubuntu 21.10
[09:54] <mannequin> foreet it, i found it
[09:54] <gry> what was it?
[09:54] <tomreyn> Guest59: shotcut does not seem to be a package ubuntu provides (unless it's a snap?)
[09:55] <tomreyn> i see, it's a snap
[09:56] <flughafen> #/j go
[09:58] <tomreyn> Guest59: the snaps' developer suggests this as a point of contact / support: https://forum.shotcut.org/
[10:00] <mannequin> why does, in system monitor, under the fan tab, it says: please install lm-sensors
[10:00] <mannequin> i got lm-sensorts installed
[10:01] <tomreyn> and "sensors" lists your fans?
[10:02] <mannequin> it does not list anything besides "please install lm-sensors"
[10:02] <mannequin> and no, lm-sensors manually does neither
[10:02] <tomreyn> "sensors" is a command that's provided by the "lm-sensors" package
[10:02] <mannequin> i know
[10:02] <mannequin> and what?
[10:02] <mannequin> i got that installed
[10:03] <HHauser> run sensors detect
[10:03] <Guest59> Installed snap
[10:03] <Guest59> it does not work
[10:03] <Guest59> correctly
[10:03] <tomreyn> i don't think the "sensors" command would print "please install lm-sensors"
[10:03] <Guest59> shotcut
[10:03] <tomreyn> !enter | Guest59
[10:03] <mannequin> after running sensors-detect it still does not show up
[10:04] <mannequin> hat's very basic amd cooling
[10:04] <Guest59> hmm it worked but something does not
[10:05] <tomreyn> Guest59: so head over to the forum i pointed you to, this software is not supported here
[10:06] <gry> tomreyn: there is no irc channel where it is?
[10:07] <tomreyn> Guest59: i'm sorry, i had not checked properly - besides the snap, there is also an ubuntu package for 21.10. you can report bugs on it using ubuntu-bug and use the bug tracker at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shotcut/+bugs
[10:08] <tomreyn> gry: i do not know
[10:16] <neure> hi, I have two computers connected to a switch which is connected to internet provider (ethernet socket in the wall). The computers get their IP addresses from the internet provider. Can I somehow find the IP address of one computer from the other?
[10:16] <Sunrise> neure if they are ipv6 likely
[10:17] <neure> They are IPv4
[10:17] <neure> I only have screen, keyboard and mouse, and I need to switch these in order to get the IP and that is messy
[10:18] <neure> Isn't there some way to scan for IP addresses in the local physical network?
[10:19] <Sunrise> I've done that with software
[10:21] <gry> neure: this is a bit weird. i know 'whatismyip.com' web site can show public ip
[10:22] <lotuspsychje> maybe this is more a question for #networking ?
[10:23] <ducasse> neure: is there no router/gateway?
[10:27] <neure> ducasse, no router, just a stupid switch
[10:31] <ducasse> so you can get as many ip addresses as you want?
[10:31] <ducasse> normally they assign you one and you nat through that
[10:34] <neure> Well it seems I can get at least two
[10:35] <neure> oh!
[10:36] <neure> the other computer also has ipv6
[10:36] <neure> inet6 xxxx::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx/64 scope link noprefixroute valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
[10:36] <neure> so I suppose that would not change
[10:56] <lesshaste> anyone know if ubuntu has a fix for this yet? https://www.qualys.com/2022/01/25/cve-2021-4034/pwnkit.txt
[10:59] <guiverc> https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2021-4034  -- look up ubuntu CVE pages for answers on CVEs & Ubuntu
[10:59] <guiverc> lesshaste, ^
[10:59] <BrianHechinger[m> why is 20.04 installing qemu 4.2? Is there some trick to getting it to install 6.x?
[10:59] <lesshaste> guiverc, thanks!
[11:00] <lesshaste> BrianHechinger[m, out of interest, what do you use qemu for?
[11:00] <lesshaste> BrianHechinger[m, https://nextgentips.com/2021/12/17/how-to-install-and-configure-qemu-6-2-on-ubuntu-20-04/ ?
[11:01] <BrianHechinger[m> General purpose VMs on my desktop, firewall VMs on my NUC and PCI Passthrough GPUs on a single box for two kids (two GPUs)
[11:01] <guiverc> 20.04 is the 2020-April release; `qemu | 1:4.2-3ubuntu6.19        | focal-updates            | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x` is the package for that version; 6.0 is available for later release(s)  ; security fixes only are back-ported to older releases usually
[11:01] <guiverc> BrianHechinger[m, ^
[11:03] <BrianHechinger[m> Boo! Is there a way to install 6.x easily then? My google-fu is failing me.
[11:03] <BrianHechinger[m> lesshaste: that claims to install 6.x but actually installs 4.2
[11:03] <lesshaste> ah :(
[11:05] <guiverc> i see it available as a snap (qemu), but I've no experience with it sorry
[11:06] <BrianHechinger[m> qemu out of snap..... hmmmm.
[11:07] <BrianHechinger[m> and not even at least 6.1 (which has a bug fix (not that it matters on this particular host)
[11:08] <BrianHechinger[m> Oh, looks like it's in backports
[11:08] <BrianHechinger[m> that was easy
[11:08] <BrianHechinger[m> now let's see if that solves my problem
[11:10] <BrianHechinger[m> :(
[11:10] <BrianHechinger[m> nope
[11:33] <jo-erlend> BrianHechinger[m, Ubuntu is a stable distro. The purpose is to make sure things change as little as possible. Therefore, you won't get the newest versions of packages. Ubuntu 21.10 has Qemu 6.0.
[11:34] <BrianHechinger[m> Yeah, I get that.
[11:37] <ducasse> BrianHechinger[m: there might be a ppa available, but that's entirely at your own risk. most likely 6.* depends on other packages being later versions, though
[11:37] <BrianHechinger[m> it's in backports
[11:37] <BrianHechinger[m> which installed fine
[11:38] <BrianHechinger[m> but sadly doesn't solve the issue
[11:38] <BrianHechinger[m> which makes me think maybe a kernel update or something possibly.
[11:39] <jo-erlend> BrianHechinger[m, what issue is it you're trying to solve?
[11:41] <BrianHechinger[m> I have a PC (running 20.04) that runs two PCI Passthrough VMs. Each VM gets a GPU and one of the onboard USB controllers. The one VM is fine. The second one causes the host to lock up or spontaneously reboot when it tries to attach the USB controller (GPU is fine).
[11:42] <BrianHechinger[m> It didn't used to do that as recently as a week ago.

[14:49] <xheimlich> I'd like to switch left/right mouse buttons, but only for mice, not for the built-in touchpad.
[14:50] <xheimlich> either that, or make the tapping action equivalent to the right (which is now  main) button.
[14:50] <xheimlich> right now with xmodmap -e 3 2 1, what I get is that tapping invokes contextual menus etc.
[14:50] <lotuspsychje> xheimlich: try dconf-editor for tweaking your system
[14:50] <xheimlich> ok I'll try that tyhanks

[16:01] <leftyfb> micha_: what does the error tell you?
[16:02] <leftyfb> what do the logs on the cifs server tell you?
[16:02] <micha_> to look in the manual ;-(
[16:02] <micha_> I think its correctt
[16:04] <micha_> mount error(115): Operation now in progress
[16:04] <micha_> Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg)
[16:05] <michagogo> Well, anything useful in dmesg?
[16:06] <micha_> I dont know how to look, dmesg?
[16:06] <micha_> It is kali linux

[18:12] <Please> I am on an AMD64 machine and I wanted to do cross compiling for armhf device, so I installed gcc for armhf and it worked with no problem with qtcreator. Then I enabled armhf architecture in dpkg and installed a simple library with armhf architecture and now I can't run qtcreator anymore. The output is "qtcreator: error while loading shared libraries: libExtensionSystem.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". I have checked and the
[18:12] <Please> library exists where it had to be. What's  wrong?
[18:14] <jhutchins> Please: As a wild guess, your compiler is looking for it in the wrong location.  You need to figure out where it expects the file to be and either point the compiler correctly, copy the file there, or maybe just symlink it.
[18:15] <jhutchins> (Note: "compiler" = whatever part of the build aparatus is looking for the lib.
[18:16] <Please> symlinks are not touched and I don't know how to force linker to understand where to find the libraries while the libraries are available under /usr/lib
[18:44] <random1> My plugged in headsets with microphone is having issues with my Ubuntu 20. I can head audio but I cannot use the microphone at all. Doesn't even seem to recognize it. Thank you in advance
[18:44] <leftyfb> !yy.mm | random1
[18:45] <random1> I have Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
[18:47] <random1> leftyfb Any ideas?
[18:47] <leftyfb> random1: I do not, sorry
[18:49] <lotuspsychje> random1: if you like you could share your dmesg in a paste, so the volunteers could take a closer look into your problem
[18:53] <random1> lotuspsychje: https://termbin.com/z2wd
[18:53] <random1> That is my dmesg as well. Thank you lotus
[18:59] <jchittum> random1: nothing jumps out. when you say "plugged in headset" how is it plugged in? is it a USB headset or a 3.5mm into a headphone input?
[19:00] <random1> jchittum: a 3.5mm into a headphone input
[19:00] <lotuspsychje> random1: did you have it work on earlier kernel version(s) ?
[19:01] <random1> not on this system no
[19:01] <jchittum> random1: can you confirm your hardware is a combo? There should be an icon beside the input. it may be small, but if it's a combo jack, you'll see a headset
[19:01] <random1> a new venture for me
[19:01] <jchittum> not all headphone jacks are combo jacks
[19:01] <random1> I went through the input. Checked alsamixer, pulseaudio as well
[19:02] <random1> none of it even recognizes a microphone except me just having headsets on
[19:02] <lotuspsychje> pavucontrol could be something to test also
[19:02] <random1> im thinking i need to reinstall the drivers for it
[19:02] <random1> but im unsure how that works on linux
[19:03] <jchittum> for the headphone combo jack input, it's the core audio drivers (so pulseaudio, alsa, and kernel on 20.04). Do you know what audio chip is in the computer?
[19:04] <jchittum> I will say that for a time on Impish, I lost my headphone combo jack input. it didn't recognize the input. But that was fixed about 2 months ago
[19:04] <lotuspsychje> random1: you can check: sudo lshw -C sound
[19:06] <random1> lotuspsychje: https://termbin.com/t2lc
[19:06] <lotuspsychje> random1: looks like the drivers are loaded
[19:07] <jchittum> random1: when you plug in the headset, do you get a pop up asking "Headphone or Headset" or nothing?
[19:07] <random1> jchittum: Nothing
[19:08] <jchittum> random1: and you checked the headphone jack is definitely a combo jack and not headphones only? Hm...it sounds like what i was running into a while ago. But if you're fully updated, I'm running out of thoughts...
[19:08] <random1> jchittum: It has a plug for microphone and then a headset one. I tried using both plugs
[19:09] <lotuspsychje> jchittum: you recall the kernel version you had the issue on?
[19:09] <random1> lotuspsychje: How do I pull up the kernel version?
[19:09] <jchittum> lotuspsychje: specifically, no, sorry. Was definitely a 5.13 kernel
[19:09] <jchittum> random1: uname -a
[19:10] <random1> Yeah 5.13
[19:11] <jchittum> random1: what's the full output of uname -a ?
[19:12] <random1> jchittum: https://termbin.com/ybif
[19:12] <jchittum> interesting...tell ya what, i'll BRB -- i just noticed i hadn't rebooted after getting the 5.13.0-27 kernel...
[19:13] <random1> jchittum: kk
[19:17] <jchittum> random1: bad news is worked for me on the 5.13.0-27-generic kernel. What's the CPU?
[19:18] <random1> Intel® Core™ i5-2520M CPU @ 2.50GHz × 4
[19:18] <random1> jchittum
[19:20] <random1> jchittum: This is driving me crazy. I have to have this working for work @_@
[19:20] <random1> jchittum: supposed to be working right now ..
[19:21] <jchittum> random1: i'm running out of ideas, sorry...I can suggest a cheap USB-C alternative, but with a CPU from 2011, i'm guessing it's an older laptop?
[19:21] <random1> yeah Lenovo
[19:21] <random1> old
[19:21] <lotuspsychje> could bug #1950540 be relevant?
[19:22] <random1> Now I can remember.. A few years back it did work on this system
[19:22] <random1> I know it can work. Its just something is off..
[19:24] <jchittum> lotuspsychje: hm, maybe. if plugging in doesn't bring up a prompt, it definitely seems to point to a hotplug issue.
[19:24] <jchittum> but i've reached the depth of my knowledge. really sorry.
[19:24] <random1> Booting the patched kernel, add snd_sof_pci.sof_pci_debug=0x1 in
[19:24] <random1> the bootargs, plug the headset to the audio jacks, the system
[19:24] <random1> could detect the plug in or plug out.
[19:25] <random1> jchittum: How do I do that?
[19:25] <random1> I vaguely remember something about booting with commands you can add just not sure where
[19:27] <jchittum> random1: /etc/default/grub  in the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
[19:27] <jchittum> it's a space separated string
[19:28] <lotuspsychje> random1: and sudo update-grub after your grub change + reboot
[19:32] <random1> lotuspsychje jchittum: Like this GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" snd_sof_pci.sof_pci_debug=0x1    ?
[19:34] <lotuspsychje> random1: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash snd_sof_pci.sof_pci_debug=0x1"
[19:35] <random1> brb
[19:35] <random1> updated grub too
[19:35] <lotuspsychje> yeah
[19:42] <random1> nope -_-
[19:42] <lotuspsychje> no dice?
[19:42] <random1> lotuspsychje: No dice...
[19:42] <lotuspsychje> random1: check your dmesg if your kernel param worked?
[19:42] <random1> lotuspsychje: I want you to reach in the depths of that smart brain of yours and figure this out. Just imagine a crazy man has a gun to your head and you have to come up with a solution
[19:43] <random1> lol
[19:43] <random1> let me check
[19:43] <random1> https://termbin.com/36lg
[19:43] <lotuspsychje> yeah param is good
[19:47] <random1> lotuspsychje: All it takes is the right commands and the problem is solved. '
[19:52] <random1> well..
[19:52] <random1> everyone left me
[19:52] <random1> Problem still not solved -_-
[20:03] <gordonjcp> hello
[20:04] <gordonjcp> I'm having a weird issue with Ubuntu 21.10 where wifi is very, very much slower than in 20.04
[20:04] <gordonjcp> I have two identical Thinkpad T440ps, differing only in the size of SSD fitted
[20:04] <gordonjcp> they're side-by-side on the sofa
[20:04] <gry> one of them 21.10 and another 20.04 ?
[20:05] <gordonjcp> one pulls down a speed test from speedtest.aaisp.net.uk (the ISP I use) at ~40Mbps with 20.04, the 21.10 one gets ~1Mpbs
[20:05] <gordonjcp> *Mbps
[20:05] <gordonjcp> gry: yup
[20:05] <gry> put a 20.04 live usb into the laptop where the wifi is slow, is it still slow then ?
[20:06] <gordonjcp> I'll go you one better
[20:06] <gordonjcp> I swapped SSDs
[20:06] <gordonjcp> fault follows OS
[20:06] <gordonjcp> potentially fault follows SSD but I can't think what madness would cause an SSD to make the wifi slow
[20:07] <gordonjcp> actually running off the smaller SSD is a little slower, but it's an older drive that I had lying about
[20:07] <jchittum> random1: sorry, had a meeting. I see the kernel cmdline param set in dmesg. And i'm running out of more ideas...sorry
[20:08] <gry> gordonjcp: hm... would do one live usb and test it on both laptops, if you have the time.. check two live usb, one 21.10 and one 20.04
[20:08] <gry> just to be sure it is not the ssd
[20:09] <gordonjcp> gry: yeah, I'll do that next
[20:09] <gordonjcp> gry: weirdly, having swapped the "suspect" SSD back into the "suspect" machine it's now working fairly normally
[20:09] <gordonjcp> so, uh
[20:09] <gordonjcp> I'll leave it alone
[20:09] <gordonjcp> if it works don't fix it, eh
[20:11] <gry> ah
[20:15] <diskin> random1, have you tried suggestions from https://askubuntu.com/questions/1230016/headset-microphone-not-working-on-ubuntu-20-04 ?
[20:36] <libc> hi .. im running ubuntu desktop in virtual machine ..
[20:37] <libc> when i assign `Super + 2' to move to workspace 2 ... it always opens the second item in the application list
[20:37] <libc> its just with this specific bind, `Super + 2' ... Super + 1,3 etc ... are working good
[20:38] <gry> this is quite peculiar, i wonder whether it is a bug in the vm or in the application list utility
[20:39] <libc> gry: to be honest it's like that in every gnome i used
[20:39] <libc> Super + 2 works fine for few miutes and then he starting to launch applications again
[20:39] <libc> it's only with that specific keystrokes ...
[20:42] <jchittum> libc: when  you search "Keyboard Shortcuts" for "Super + 2" does it just show workspace switch
[20:42] <gry> libc: only in vm or in full install too ?
[20:42] <libc> in every GNOME
[20:42] <jchittum> i'll also note that I had an odd issue with "Super + $INT" on my laptop keyboard, but don't have the issue with an external keyboard. no idea why
[20:43] <libc> jchittum: yes
[20:43] <jchittum> I set all my workspaces to "Super + F1" (and down through the function keys). and move window to "Super + Shift + Function"
[20:43] <libc> jchittum: i using external keyboard as well
[20:44] <jchittum> libc: this may help? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1294130/how-can-i-unbind-supernumber-1-2-3-from-opening-apps
[20:44] <jchittum> i didn't follow the instructions, but it's how i figured out what was specifically happenign
[20:45] <jchittum> libc: interestingly, i can only reproduce when in that workspace
[20:45] <liveacoustic> Is there a Keyboard Shortcut for cycling through all workspaces?
[20:46] <jchittum> liveacoustic: Super + PGUP /PGDN
[20:46] <agd> is there something like backports (debain) where I can install a modern kernel on an ubuntu 20.04.3 instance?
[20:46] <jchittum> libc: set workspace shortcut to Super + 2. When not in Workspace 2, it moves. When in workspace 2, it opens App 2
[20:47] <libc> jchittum: hmm... i'll trry
[20:48] <jchittum> Note that I'm running Ubuntu 21.10, so mileage on other versions may vary
[20:48] <ioria> agd, what you need exactly ?
[20:49] <libc> jchittum: im running LTS as well
[20:53] <sarnold> agd: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[20:58] <libc> jchittum: the commands you gave me in the artcile seems to be what im looking for
[20:58] <libc> however upon running the commands i still can open applications with Super+2
[21:07] <jchittum> Hm...wonder if service needs a restart to take the config?
[21:17] <libc> ok i fixed it
[21:20] <libc> the command `gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock app-hotkey-2 "[]"'
[21:20] <libc> it's probably higher in the priority than the commands mention in the article jchittum
[21:21] <libc> but gsettings was defintely the right place to dig .. thank you
[21:33] <jchittum> glad to help libc!
[22:34] <noobie> how do I compile a program with libc6=2.34 on ubuntu 21.10 to work with a lower libc6 = 2.27 ?
[22:34] <noobie> (to work on Ubuntu 18.04)
[22:34] <gry> you mean the binary to work?
[22:34] <noobie> yes
[22:34] <gry> why not re-compile it on the older ubuntu?
[22:35] <noobie> it doesnt compile there lol
[22:35] <gry> why not? what does it say?
[22:37] <noobie> the older one is Hiveos mod of ubuntu 18.04, doesnt even find cudaruntime_h for compiling, but uses cuda while mining
[22:37] <noobie> but it only has libc6=2.27
[22:44] <jsmooth> How do I find out which screensaver is being run? I tried screensaver settings, but it doesn't even show screensaver enabled
[22:45] <gry> ps aux | grep screen
[22:46] <gry> ps aux | grep dm # looking for 'display manager'
[22:47] <oerheks> it might help telling us what ubuntu version?
[22:47] <jhutchins> jsmooth: Are you sure one is running?
[22:47] <jsmooth> It keeps coming up so yes
[22:47] <babyface> how do I change the login screen resolution??
[22:51] <babyface> ?
[22:52] <oerheks> babyface, that is already answered, you seem to have a VM .. virtualbox gives guest addidions iso
[22:53] <babyface> oerheks, that's totally unrelated
[22:54] <oerheks> interesting, tell us more?
[22:54] <babyface> I do have guest additions installed and I can change the resolution on my desktop but not on the login screen
[22:58] <babyface> I'm amazed that this turned out to bee so complicated to achieve
[22:58] <babyface> I thought it was just a simple setting
[23:05] <oerheks> worth a check; use VBoxSVGA instead of VMSVGA ? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1230797/ubuntu-20-04-vm-always-resizes-screen-to-default-size-when-booting
[23:07] <babyface> I'm sorry but that link doesn't describe my problem
[23:07] <Some_Person> I'm trying to set up a bridge using Network Manager, but it doesn't seem to be forwarding packets correctly between the 2 NICs
[23:09] <babyface> oerheks, this link describes my problem https://askubuntu.com/questions/73804/wrong-login-screen-resolution
[23:11] <Some_Person> It seems like a machine connected to the port I'm trying to bridge can reach my host but nothing else on the network connected to the other port
[23:16] <sarnold> Some_Person: check sysctl -a | grep -i forward
[23:16] <sarnold> Some_Person: it's common to forget to set the sysctls when doing routing things
[23:19] <Some_Person> sarnold: this isn't something network manager handles?
[23:19] <sarnold> Some_Person: I'm not sure, but I really wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't
[23:21] <Some_Person> sarnold: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3TQrvKQH6N/
[23:21] <Some_Person> on this system, enp111s0 and enp112s0 are the NICs, and bridge0 is the bridge set up in network manager
[23:21] <sarnold> net.ipv4.conf.bridge0.forwarding = 1   welll there was my guess. hah.
[23:37] <Some_Person> Figured it out... iptables was blocking it
[23:37] <sarnold> woot
