| interdonut | I made a file /etc/modules-load.d/ddcci conf, which has a single line of ddcci_backlight, and rebooted. Then suddenly my Xubuntu 20.04LTS doesn't boot at all constantly showing erroneous message of "Timeout waiting for hardware cmd interrupt."How can I fix this? | 04:48 |

| davidhurwich | hey, wondering if I could ask a technical question | 04:49 |
| interdonut | I think this channel is open for any technical questions related to Ubuntu and it's flavors :) | 04:50 |
| davidhurwich | I installed Lubuntu 16.04 on an older HP laptop. The installation went through, but when the computer boots or reboots I get a message that states “No bootable image found, notebook will be shutdown” The laptop then shuts down | 04:55 |
| davidhurwich | When I turn on the computer and go into Boot Option I can run it until an option marked Ubuntu | 04:55 |
| davidhurwich | How can I get the OS to boot automatically when the computer boots up? | 04:55 |
| davidhurwich | Any advice? | 04:55 |

| gry | hello davidhurwich, it looks like the grub's boot options are not in the correct order | 04:57 |
| davidhurwich | I see, how would I fix this? | 04:58 |
| gry | could you please check in what order, and what options, are listed when you start to boot? | 04:58 |
| davidhurwich | by order, you mean the options in the Boot Options menu, correct? | 04:59 |
| gry | well, there are two places where this is specified - the bios, and grub | 04:59 |
| gry | would be interesting to take a photo of them both and share here, if you have a second device | 04:59 |
| gry | otherwise write down on a piece of paper and then write here manually, but make sure you copy them precisely | 05:00 |
| davidhurwich | I am in the BIOS menu, should I go under the System Information option? | 05:01 |

| interdonut | I added a new rc file under /etc/modules-load.d and my Xubuntu 20.04 doesn't boot. Does anyone know how to fix this, such as deleting the RC file using a bootable USB stick or such? | 06:16 |
| gry | probably in recovery mode in grub | 06:17 |
| interdonut | I triedk keep pressing Shift when the company logo appeared but to no avail | 06:18 |
| Bashing-om | interdonut: EFI systems is the escape key that grub looks out for. | 06:20 |
| interdonut | When I pressed esc when the company logo appeared, I came across BIOS setup screen | 06:22 |
| interdonut | The screen keeps giving error messages like mmc0: Timeout waiting for hardware CMD interrupt.Probably because the new file ddcci_backlight.ko and old i2c-dev.ko are conflict upon boot.So I need to delete the former but... | 06:26 |
| KBar | interdonut: on HP laptops you can select "Continue Booting" and keep pressing Esc, you will get into GRUB | 06:30 |
| KBar | maybe try that? | 06:30 |
| KBar | interdonut: yeah, you can also boot from a Live USB and select recovery or remove the file | 06:32 |
| interdonut | KBar thankbyou for reply. can you give me a link showing how to remove with USB media ? I googled but I can't seem to find informative pages. | 06:34 |
| KBar | interdonut: you can just click on the icon of your hard drive and it will mount it. You can just `sudo rm` that file after. | 06:36 |
| KBar | interdonut: nothing special required. | 06:36 |
| interdonut | KBar Sounds great!! I'll give it a shot.Thank you so much for saving my life | 06:37 |
| KBar | interdonut: woah, woah, i'm not sure about that but im glad i could help :) | 06:38 |

| KBar | interdonut: awesome! in the future, try messing with modules via boot parameters, i.e. appending them to the kernel command line. that way you can test each module individually without messing up everything else because the changes are temporary and discarded on reboot | 07:53 |

| ogra | mncheck, there are environment variables ... like $USER | 09:45 |
| === Etua1 is now known as Etua | ||
| mncheck | ogra, autofs(5) tells me that an entry is key [options] location out of which only location performs variable substitution, also the specific application is of secondary importance to me | 09:51 |
| mncheck | ogra, so if you were to enter a path to the "key" field that wouldn't be variable substituted | 09:52 |

| === adderall is now known as TheGibson | ||
| alkisg | What does "point to the current user" mean for a path? The most well known one is `~`, which refers to $HOME; if you're talking about the username, I don't think it matters, as HOME might not even contain the username | 10:03 |

| webchat72 | I have dual boot Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20.04. Both were working fine without an issue. Today I started laptop and from grub menu I selected "Windows Boot Manager" and when I selected it grub menu reappears instead of booting Windows. Ubuntu boots normaly. Any idea how to fix a problem? | 10:08 |
| YeahOK | I know how to fix it, @webchat72 | 10:15 |
| webchat72 | YeahOK, some help is welcome. | 10:15 |
| YeahOK | .... Need to change BIOS settings or use the BIOS boot menu so it points to the default bootloader you want to use ... But they will reset each other and conflict i.e. Windows v. Grub | 10:15 |
| YeahOK | And all of this is even more complicated, @webchat72, depending on whether or not Bitlocker is enabled. | 10:17 |
| webchat72 | I already tried to change BIOS settings. I changed order BIOS start-up settings from "Ubuntu" first and "Windows" second, to Windows first and Ubuntu second, but grub still starts up. I expected Windows to start up. | 10:17 |
| webchat72 | Yes, bitlocker is nabled. | 10:18 |
| YeahOK | Then you'd want to disable grub in Linux ... You'd have to start editing the scripts | 10:18 |
| webchat72 | How to do that. | 10:18 |
| YeahOK | There are only two ways I can think to do this: One, change the BIOS configs; Two, change the GRUB behavior inside of your distro | 10:19 |
| YeahOK | But among those two options are several different steps | 10:19 |
| YeahOK | Also, Secureboot vs. Legacy Boot would also come into play | 10:19 |
| webchat72 | I just don't understand what has happened that Windows boot does not work. Don't know what triggered it. What is the simplest way to fix the problem? | 10:20 |
| webchat72 | Is there a way I can get some error displayed from grub menu selection. So when I select Windows option from grub, to see the error. It is easier to search for solution if there is an error displayed. | 10:21 |
| YeahOK | I'd say, whenever you're trying to dual boot, these issues arise | 10:22 |
| YeahOK | Dual booting is never a first preference. I literally just started doing it today because I had no other way to easily run both OSes | 10:22 |

| zaggynl | if I have a quick look on my ubuntu 20.04 machine there is no wicd package in repositories | 11:12 |

| tekita | i was doing --purge and than rebooting system | 11:14 |
| tekita | failed to fetch http... | 11:15 |
| zaggynl | ah, in that case you will need something like a usb stick with ubuntu 18.04, add it to apt repositories | 11:15 |

| tekita | but i dont know procedure how to install it from there | 11:16 |

| tekita | zaggynl, i saw that but i dont understand this line: if [ ! -d /media/apt ]; then sudo mkdir /media/apt; fi | 11:21 |
| mncheck | alkisg, /proc/self does something and the imaginary /run/user/self would point to different places for different users, I don't really care where as long as I can mount on top of it | 11:22 |
| mncheck | alkisg, IDK, different mount name space? | 11:22 |
| tekita | what is command touch do? | 11:23 |
| tekita | to that file? | 11:23 |
| alkisg | mncheck: you can try ~/folder and see if your apps support that. Unfortunately `~` isn't handled by the kernel itself, so it's not as low level as you'd like. | 11:23 |
| alkisg | I'm not aware of any alternatives | 11:23 |
| tekita | zaggynl, do i need to write this line in sources.list? | 11:25 |
| zaggynl | tekita: only the instructions bit from Nathen should work | 11:27 |
| zaggynl | add the repo, remove the old /media/cdrom folder, setup the symlink, update and install | 11:27 |

| ice9 | if an app exists in snap but I need to force installing it from apt only, how to achieve this? | 11:54 |
| ice9 | like chromium browser | 11:54 |
| nikolam | I would just like my PC not to freeze, when some app fills the RAM (be it Firefox or VirtualBox, etc). | 11:58 |
| nikolam | Fhat is wrong with that, that application can handle how much system RAM and swap there is on machine and act accordingly? | 11:58 |
| nikolam | I have 16GB and many Firefox windows and then I started VirtualBOX machine and system freezed. I also use ZFS for home folders but it has it's limits for RAM caching use. | 11:59 |
| ledeni | nikolam, check how much mem your have for VM | 12:01 |
| tekita | zaggynl, are you still here? | 12:03 |
| nikolam | ledeni, thanks, but the issue is why OS , kernel does not stop and manage RAM usage, so that system won't ever freeze? | 12:05 |
| nikolam | Why apps do not crash when theya re not created to be limited by RAM size? | 12:06 |
| nikolam | For Example, with many windows to restore, Firefox fails to even start, if there is no present Swap and working on the system. Even if swap is actually not used and there is plenty pf RAM for Firefox. | 12:07 |
| nikolam | That should be application issue not recognizing there is no more RAM. And OS should make a point by not letting it use more if it leads to frezzing desktop. | 12:08 |
| gordonjcp | nikolam: it doesn't freeze, it just goes very slowly | 12:17 |
| gordonjcp | nikolam: this is even more noticeable now since the disparity between memory and processor speeds and disk speeds is so great | 12:17 |
| gordonjcp | nikolam: in the olden days you could be swapping in and out more or less constantly and barely notice it happening | 12:17 |
| === tisiphone is now known as onepict | ||
| nikolam | gordonjcp, I don't think that is issue here. Issue is that kernel and OS does not handle misbihaving apps. | 12:19 |

| gordonjcp | nikolam: in what way are they misbehaving? | 12:36 |
| nikolam | gordonjcp, well, as I described, they use all available RAM without stopping itself and that leads to freezing screen, desktop, keyboard, whole OS needs to be hard-reset | 12:43 |

| jhutchins | leftyfb: You could contribute by correcting the case error rather than just complaining. | 16:29 |
| jhutchins | mncheck: it's -S, not -s. | 16:29 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: /usr/bin/ps is not a file in any package. It's created post-install. The proper location is /bin/ps. This is a big reason(among multiple) why I want to know why mncheck needs to know which package the ps command is part of | 16:30 |
| jhutchins | leftyfb: Funny, my system returns procps as the source. | 16:31 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: which version? | 16:31 |
| leftyfb | wait, it shouldn't. I tested on bionic and focal | 16:32 |
| jhutchins | 3.3.12 | 16:32 |
| jhutchins | leftyfb: How is this helping people? | 16:32 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: ah right, it does on bionic. Not for modern Ubuntu releases | 16:33 |
| leftyfb | though still, it points to /bin/ps, not /usr/bin/ps | 16:33 |
| leftyfb | so still doesn't actually answer mncheck's question | 16:33 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: why do you need to know where /usr/bin/ps comes from? | 16:34 |
| freaq | how could I check if my network issue is a auto-negotiation issue? I don't have another cable to check if its a cable issue atm | 16:35 |
| leftyfb | freaq: boot into your BIOS and see what your router says | 16:36 |
| leftyfb | freaq: I can almost guarantee it's still going to say 100M and is unrelated to your OS | 16:36 |
| freaq | I can't do that very easily is a server in my basement.. an old dell r710 | 16:37 |
| leftyfb | freaq: you can with the iDrac/ipmi | 16:38 |
| freaq | reboot to bios with idrac ? | 16:38 |
| leftyfb | freaq: yes | 16:38 |
| leftyfb | freaq: using the virtual terminal | 16:38 |
| freaq | ok thanks i'll check that out | 16:40 |
| njd001 | solved my issue, turns out i didnt read the prompt correctly. | 16:45 |
| mncheck | leftyfb, to install it in debian-slim | 16:47 |
| leftyfb | jhutchins: this is why I ask ^ | 16:47 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: do not install packages from ubuntu, ESPECIALLY procps on Debian. Debian has it's own package for ps and the like | 16:48 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: if you have issues with ps in Debian, that is for #debian or wherever their IRC support channel is. Looking to Ubuntu is not the answer | 16:49 |
| BrianBlaze | I have a weird issue where I noticed my server would grind to a halt for a moment and I notice this a million times in my syslog: https://pastebin.com/NVUNpMzw | 16:52 |
| BrianBlaze | I am wondering if someone can point me into a direction of what is going on | 16:53 |
| mncheck | leftyfb, sure, I just assumed it the same package name | 16:53 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: no | 16:53 |
| BrianBlaze | Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS by the way :) | 16:53 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: look to Debian for support with Debian, not here | 16:53 |
| leftyfb | BrianBlaze: any reason you have an Nvidia video card in your server? | 16:53 |
| BrianBlaze | So I don't use it often but it was to have it connected to a screen | 16:54 |
| leftyfb | BrianBlaze: if it's got an integrated video chipset, I would use that and remove the nvidia | 16:55 |
| Error | is there a guide to configure tunnelbroker in ubuntu 20.4? | 16:57 |

| mncheck | leftyfb, true | 17:11 |
| mncheck | leftyfb, by the way I get one ps from procps package which I based on rmadison and the man page | 17:17 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: correct. I'm pretty sure the /usr/bin/ps is just a copy for whatever reason that gets copied during post-install scripts. It's not the destination of the ps binary in the package install instructions | 17:19 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: either way, if you're not running ubuntu, none of this is relevant here | 17:19 |
| mncheck | leftyfb, any project targeting information extraction from postinstalls? | 17:19 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: try #debian | 17:20 |
| mncheck | leftyfb, hey, I am running ubuntu, just not on the system in question, and that problem is solved, now it's just another question :) | 17:20 |
| leftyfb | mncheck: what version of ubuntu? | 17:21 |

| leftyfb | freaq: go to the idrac -> virtual console settings and select HTML5 as opposed to native or java | 17:32 |
| leftyfb | freaq: at least do this, go and look at the writing on the ethernet cable that's plugged in. It'll say CAT5 or CAT5e or CAT6. | 17:33 |
| leftyfb | freaq: IPMI isn't used to configure the speed of your NIC | 17:34 |

| lord_daemon | I'll do that soon, thanks | 17:49 |

| lirodon | quick question, what methods would any of you recommend for cloning an Ubuntu install to a new drive? (SSD migration) | 18:51 |
| leftyfb | lirodon: dd | 18:51 |
| leftyfb | lirodon: though honestly, I would just do a fresh install | 18:52 |
| === tisiphone is now known as onepict | ||
| mncheckm | lirodon, if you go dd, be sure to set at least bs=64k | 18:54 |
| mncheckm | lirodon, if you want graphical there is redorescue and rescuezilla, I didn't use any of them | 18:55 |
| mncheckm | both are based on clonezilla, which as I understand is a file-system aware dd that skips unused space | 18:56 |
| leftyfb | ASC__: yescrypt is available in Ubuntu 21.10 | 18:56 |

| sarnold | ice9: 20.10 hasn't received any updates in half a year | 20:09 |
| sarnold | ice9: its replacement hasn't received any updates in a few weeks -- it's best to upgrade off 20.10 *now* before it gets vastly more complicated when releases are removed from the archives | 20:09 |
| ice9 | sarnold, you mean to downgrade to 20.04? | 20:10 |
| sarnold | ice9: downgrades aren't really a thing. at this point it's time to upgrade twice, and consider sticking on 22.04 when that's released | 20:11 |
| Maik | !20.10 | ice9 | 20:11 |
| ubottu | ice9: 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 | 20:11 |

| patiencezero | Is there anything like IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes by default in Ubuntu? NetworkManager is saying connections to my IPV6-only network are failing. | 20:35 |
| patiencezero | Even though I have a connection to the gateway and can ping local resources, I receive a 'connection failed, activation of network connection failed' notification and the network connection disconnects. | 20:35 |
| enyc | patiencezero: which ubuntu version? | 20:36 |
| patiencezero | 16.04 and 18.04 | 20:36 |
| enyc | patiencezero: 16.04 not supported now aiui, not for this channel but anyhow | 20:36 |
| leftyfb | patiencezero: time to upgrade, at least the 16.04 | 20:36 |
| patiencezero | Maybe ipv4.may-fail? | 20:37 |
| leftyfb | patiencezero: lets talk about the 18.04 only, since the 16.04 version isn't supported .... | 20:37 |
| enyc | patiencezero: tbh i'd try this again on 20.04lts or 21.10 before doing any more | 20:37 |
| leftyfb | patiencezero: is this 18.04 machine a server or does it have a desktop GUI? | 20:37 |
| patiencezero | Desktop with GUI | 20:37 |
| leftyfb | patiencezero: how long have you had it? | 20:38 |
| enyc | I'm sure i've seen a tickbox on some systems (maybe not ubuntu) for require ipv4 for connection to complete | 20:38 |
| nesoi | hello, I appear to have a full root device, am getting: -bash: cannot create temp file for here-document: No space left on device, however this is an EC2 instance and I just increased the size of the root device from 8GB to 16GB and rebooted, and still get the error. Any idea what's going on or how to fix it? | 20:38 |
| enyc | patiencezero: but, if it "just works" on 20.04 or 21.10 would be best (imho) to just update to that version ... ipv6 has had many improvements in many areas... | 20:38 |
| leftyfb | nesoi: did you resize the filesystem after increasing the storage device? | 20:38 |
| nesoi | leftyfb: apparently not! | 20:39 |
| enyc | patiencezero: what about booting 20.04 and 21.10 on live usb sticks and testing the network connection from those ? | 20:39 |
| nesoi | when I try growpart it says: mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/tmp/growpart.1571’: No space left on device | 20:41 |
| leftyfb | nesoi: you don't do that live | 20:42 |
| leftyfb | nesoi: please seek support from Amazon for support with resizing one of their ec2 instances properly. You need to be out of band | 20:42 |
| nesoi | they respond in a few days unfortunately | 20:43 |
| leftyfb | nesoi: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/recognize-expanded-volume-linux.html # first result on google for "ubuntu ec2 resize" | 20:44 |
| nesoi | their docs don't say anything about that though https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/recognize-expanded-volume-linux.html | 20:44 |
| nesoi | right :) | 20:45 |
| nesoi | nothing about being out of band there though | 20:45 |
| patiencezero | enyc, I could try that... for now just couching the problem and coming back to it after fixing the issue on RH8 | 20:47 |
| leftyfb | nesoi: clear some space first | 20:47 |
| leftyfb | patiencezero: if you're having the same issue on Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and RH8, the issue isn't with ubuntu. It's more than likely your network config on the router/dhcp side | 20:49 |
| nesoi | can I just delete some snap stuff? | 20:49 |
| nesoi | I think that's what caused the problem | 20:49 |
| leftyfb | nesoi: packages should be properly removed and not just deleted | 20:49 |
| enyc | patiencezero: i would try that as part of the whole thing, bear in mind this april there will be 22.04lts anyhow | 20:49 |
| enyc | patiencezero: why do you have a 16.04 still? | 20:50 |
| nesoi | it won't even list the snaps because of the space issue looks like | 20:50 |
| patiencezero | dependency issues, legacy systems, that sort of thing. | 20:51 |
| patiencezero | enyc, there are no good reasons, just reasons. | 20:51 |
| leftyfb | patiencezero: we cannot support 16.04 here. 18.04 will be out of support next April | 20:52 |
| patiencezero | I understand, the issue is present on 18.04 as well. It's a NetworkManager thing and so far appears to be related to ipv4.may-fail option in NM. | 20:53 |
| patiencezero | After setting ipv4.may-fail to yes, I'm no longer experiencing the issue on our RH8 host. | 20:54 |
| patiencezero | Time to see if the fix also works on Ubuntu 18.04... | 20:54 |
| leftyfb | patiencezero: time would be better spent migrating your critical data and services to modern OS's | 20:55 |
| patiencezero | Agreed, however those decisions fall outside my paygrade for now. | 20:57 |
| patiencezero | Maybe sometime in the future, though! | 20:57 |

| Pecorch | I am trying to set up a local file repo with ubuntu but I am stuck. do you have any guide guys please? | 22:01 |
| sarnold | Pecorch: 'local file repo'? what's that? | 22:03 |
| Pecorch | I have list of .deb packages and I want to make them available via apt install mypackage | 22:03 |
| sarnold | Pecorch: aha :) the apt-ftparchive is pretty common; aptly has more features but might be more work to set it all up | 22:04 |
| EriC^^ | Pecorch: copy them to /var/cache/apt/archives | 22:04 |
| Pecorch | just copying the deb to /var/cache/apt/archives and I will be able to install them with apt install? | 22:05 |
| EriC^^ | Pecorch: are they the 'stock' ubuntu repo files? or custom packages? | 22:05 |
| Pecorch | custom packages | 22:05 |
| EriC^^ | Pecorch: oh, then nevermind | 22:05 |
| Pecorch | custom deb packages | 22:05 |
| Pecorch | so what is the solution? | 22:06 |
| EriC^^ | look into what sarnold mentioned | 22:06 |
| Pecorch | ok | 22:08 |
| Pecorch | this should work then? https://manuel-io.github.io/blog/2017/07/09/creating-an-apt-repository/ | 22:09 |

| gry | This is not a full error message. Please pastebin the full error message. | 23:04 |
| sarnold | check the permissions on the file you added to /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d ? | 23:05 |

| Pecorch | I run this before, gpg --gen-key | 23:07 |
