| ednash | to be able to ssh into ubuntu i will just install openssh-server, right? | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| ednash | why would i ever want to install the openssh-client? doesn't ubuntu already support ssh command natively? | 00:08 |
| ednash | ls | 00:14 |
| sarnold | ednash: yes, openssh-client is inthe default install for many versions of ubuntu, but perhaps not all | 00:16 |
| ednash | oh i see, makes sense. thanks | 00:20 |
| esv | hello folks, is there a way to do an LVM disk encryption install on a partitioned disk ? | 01:14 |
| esv | or encrypt the live system? reboots are ok | 01:14 |
| oerheks | i think LVM wants whole disk, AFAIK | 01:17 |
| VIA | yo simple question, hope someone might have some input: how would i go about defining/setting P"rocess priorities" within ubuntu? | 01:21 |
| VIA | coming from windows i could always set any proces from low, very low, medium, high and realtime | 01:22 |
| Ravage | VIA: renice | 01:22 |
| VIA | either through GUI or by starting an executable with the right arguments | 01:22 |
| sarnold | VIA: nice, renice, schedtool, rtkit | 01:22 |
| VIA | thats plents of options ? uhhm | 01:23 |
| sarnold | VIA: systemd units can also CPUSchedulingPriority= directive, too | 01:23 |
| VIA | since i cant be certain, for now, that i could easily start software with arguments to make it so, a tool that offers me a GUI for now would be preferable | 01:24 |
| VIA | im looking nice/renice up righ t now | 01:24 |
| Ravage | nice starts a process with a given prio | 01:25 |
| Ravage | renice changes a running one | 01:25 |
| Ravage | I'm not sure but the gnome system monitor may be able to set it too | 01:27 |
| VIA | hmm looks like i understand the workenings of "renice" but nowhere does it mention what actual options i have | 01:27 |
| lilgopher | _________: nice nick | 01:27 |
| VIA | eg what numbers mean which priorization | 01:28 |
| VIA | i use xfce, no gnome | 01:28 |
| Ravage | The nice value range is -20 to +19 where -20 is highest, 0 default and +19 is lowest. | 01:28 |
| sarnold | Niceness values range from -20 (most favorable to the | 01:28 |
| sarnold | process) to 19 (least favorable to the process). | 01:28 |
| red_herring | Hello, I'm having trouble setting up ssh to work over the internet on my ubuntu 20.04 server, if anyone could help me figure out what I am missing | 01:33 |
| red_herring | What I have done so far: | 01:33 |
| red_herring | https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/JN6crTmPwf/ | 01:33 |
| VIA | what are the possible values in renice ? | 01:34 |
| VIA | ahhhh thxalot Ravage <3 | 01:34 |
| oerheks | sudo ufw list# would give a list of pre-sets | 01:35 |
| oerheks | *hint* | 01:35 |
| VIA | think i owuldnt mind a simple gui tool | 01:35 |
| oerheks | err sudo ufw app list | 01:35 |
| VIA | having a hard time with PID's | 01:36 |
| VIA | i like htop but its way loaded, its hard for me to figure out what the correct parent-task would be to fiffle with | 01:36 |
| Ravage | VIA: open system montitor. you can change the prio there | 01:37 |
| jhutchins | red_herring: That's really nothing useful. | 01:37 |
| oerheks | sudo ufw allow ssh https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ufw-allow-incoming-ssh-connections-from-a-specific-ip-address-subnet-on-ubuntu-debian/ | 01:37 |

| VIA | Available applications: | 01:37 |
| VIA | CUPS | 01:37 |
| VIA | ^^ ---- OoOo | 01:37 |
| oerheks | that is a check if the application has acces | 01:37 |
| jhutchins | red_herring: what happens when you try to connect? What do you get when you use the -vvv (verbose) option? | 01:37 |
| VIA | yess system monitor" how do u get it? | 01:38 |
| VIA | doesnt seem to be on my distro | 01:38 |
| oerheks | so, your cups is reachable from the notwork, as it should | 01:38 |
| Ravage | press the windows key. start typing "system monitor" | 01:38 |
| Ravage | if your distro is any supported Ubuntu this is installed by default | 01:39 |
| VIA | like i just mentioned it is not | 01:39 |
| red_herring | I have already done sudo ufw allow [port #] , I do not have another linux machine to connect to this one so I am using putty, let me see if there is a way to get verbose output | 01:40 |
| Ravage | VIA: run "cat /etc/issue|nc termbin.com 9999" in a terminal and send the link here | 01:41 |
| VIA | all info in link created is " Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS \n \l " Ravage | 01:43 |
| VIA | iv seen a screenshiot of "system monitor" nad this might be exactly what i want to eese things for th beginning | 01:44 |
| Ravage | if you used the default ubuntu installer that application must exist | 01:44 |
| Ravage | but the package is called "gnome-system-monitor" | 01:45 |
| sarnold | VIA: try installing gnome-system-monitor ? that looks plausible | 01:45 |
| Ravage | so just install it | 01:45 |
| VIA | apt install gnome-system-monitor ? | 01:46 |
| Ravage | with sudo if you are not root | 01:46 |
| Ravage | sudo apt install gnome-system-monitor | 01:47 |
| VIA | :) | 01:47 |
| VIA | alrighdy good it sweet now lets see | 01:48 |
| Bashing-om | VIA: as you run xfce4 - pay attention as the what Gnome dependencies you pull in ^ . | 01:48 |
| red_herring | jhutchins: "ssh: connect top host (ip addr) port (#): connection timed out | 01:48 |
| VIA | what exactly do you mean Bashing-om ? | 01:48 |
| blei | is there a way to install gcc-6 | 01:48 |
| VIA | personally im wary having too much different/wild different desktop enviroment stuff at the same time | 01:48 |
| VIA | pretty sure this is part what has been ruining my experience partially | 01:49 |
| Bashing-om | VIA: Differnet code bases for the desktop environment - could get some bloat and maybe some DE conflicts - maybe ? | 01:49 |
| VIA | but this distro is for CAD/creation music/ imagery orograms photo/drawings tool et all so i do understand why thwy would try to maximize compatibility | 01:50 |
| VIA | ahh i think im good for now thx everyone!!! <3 | 01:51 |
| VIA | the nice~ stuffs is pretty straightforwards. systemmonitor looks liek it can ease things up for me for startes | 01:51 |
| sarnold | blei: you could install bionic in an lxd or VM or something, I guess https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-6 | 01:51 |
| blei | sarnold i installed repos going all the way back to trusty but i don't see 6 so far | 01:51 |
| blei | i see gcc-8 | 01:52 |

| sarnold | blei: heh, gcc-6 binaries are in universe http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gcc-6/ and not main http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gcc-6/ -- so make sure you've got universe enabled in your bionic instance | 01:54 |
| red_herring20 | jhutchins: lost connection, if you responded I missed it unfortunately. Here is the full output https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/S6sK3PM822/ | 01:54 |
| blei | sarnold just to clarify i do not have a bionic instance, i have a jammy instance, with all repos going back to trusty in sources.list, including universe / multiverse | 01:55 |
| blei | i will attempt the ppa | 01:56 |
| oerheks | build it from source | 01:56 |
| oerheks | that would be the safest way to add that old version .. in a vm would be safe | 01:57 |

| blei | ppa no-go attempting compile | 01:59 |

| jhutchins | red_herring20: Putty will do verbose output, you need to launch it from a shell prompt/command line (whatever they call it in Windows). | 02:12 |
| jhutchins | red_herring20: is the ssh daemon listening? Can you connect to the localhost on the server? | 02:13 |
| sanmingzhi | Has anyone had any luck installing VoiceMod via Lutris or other any other means? | 02:20 |

| red_herring20 | jhutchins: I can connect using localhost or the local ip from another machine | 02:55 |
| red_herring20 | jhutchins: this is what I see if I try to connect over the internet https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/S6sK3PM822/ | 03:06 |
| sanmingzhi | The "Connection timed out" is usually from firewall at the network or OS level. Make sure you have port forwarding setup in your router too if you're connecting from outside to a lan without a vpn. | 03:12 |
| red_herring | just to be sure - the port I forward on the router should be the same as the port I open on the server, yes? | 03:13 |
| sanmingzhi | thats the easiest way | 03:14 |
| red_herring | if so, that is already done, ufw allow [port #], hosts.allow ALL: sshd, GatewayPorts yes | 03:14 |
| red_herring | I wonder if this is windows firewall actually | 03:14 |
| sanmingzhi | If you have ssh running on a custom port make sure you've restarted the ssh service and its actually running on the custom port too | 03:16 |
| sanmingzhi | also check your default policy to see if its allow/deny. You may need to specifically allow traffic to the port | 03:17 |
| red_herring | systemctl status ssh shows the correct port, I am able to connect on the local network as well | 03:18 |
| red_herring | I'm thinking it's something on windows or my router | 03:19 |
| sanmingzhi | probably router / port forwarding level since you can connect locally | 03:19 |
| red_herring | thank you for your suggestions, much appreciated | 03:19 |
| sanmingzhi | sure thing | 03:19 |
| ednash | what is a good filesystem for large (2TB+) backup disks, if i want inter-operability with windows? (don't care about mac) | 03:51 |
| jhutchins | ednash: Windows pretty much limits it to NTFS/CIFS unless you want to do third party FS drivers on Windows (not recommended). | 03:59 |

| Achak | and then you use it normally like every linux distro | 08:30 |
| Achak | you just have to constanrly update your system | 08:30 |
| frost-core | i meant, do i have to run the command you gave me every single time? or just sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade | 08:31 |
| Achak | You only do do-release-upgrade -d once to upgrade to jammy | 08:33 |

| maks | Hiho, is this help channel for ubuntu newcommers? I don't why my 20.04 ubuntu ask my for sudo password each time i log in and each ~30 min | 18:35 |
| Ravage | maks: https://itsfoss.com/change-sudo-password-timeout-ubuntu/ | 18:36 |
| maks | That's not what i asked. I mean some startup programs need privilages but i cannot turn off them. That's not happned for my in other distributions | 18:40 |
| leftyfb | maks: which "startup program" needs privileges and you can't turn off? | 18:43 |
| maks | leftyfb: I have no idea, this is almost fresh installed ubuntu 20.04, one is update checker i guess | 18:45 |
| leftyfb | maks: "update checker"? Do you mean the popup that tells you have packages that can be updated and when you click ok it's asking you for an administrative password because you obviously need those in order to install packages? | 18:46 |
| maks | i disabled all 3 in "starting programs" graphical selecter and also from some autostar folder in .conf | 18:47 |
| maks | i mean i turn on computer and it ask me for a password after system starttup | 18:47 |
| leftyfb | maks: ok, sounds like you know what you're doing and will modify things to do what you think you need done and you no longer need help here. Good luck | 18:47 |
| maks | twice | 18:47 |
| maks | i just want to start computer without any sudo priviligaes for startup, like i was running no-root account | 18:48 |

| leftyfb | rm_rf: can we help you with something? | 18:53 |
| leftyfb | alkisg: they should probably undo whatever hacks they did to "starting programs" so as not to cause more issues | 18:53 |
| alkisg | E.g. when teachers reported something like that, I saw that they meant the keyring unlocking popup | 18:54 |
| rm_rf | Wait, what county is someone in where teachers or students interface with Linux? | 18:54 |

| frost-core | also for bionic beaver | 19:44 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: date for what? | 19:44 |
| frost-core | sarnold : lts | 19:44 |
| frost-core | leftyfb : lts, focal fossa | 19:44 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 19:44 |
| frost-core | leftyfb : ubuntu flavour | 19:44 |
| leftyfb | ^ that is a list of all the most recent released and their EOL date | 19:44 |
| frost-core | leftyfb : for 18.04, which flavour does not have the short eol | 19:45 |
| frost-core | leftyfb: ive seen flavours, that shorten the eol | 19:46 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: you would maybe have to ask in each of the channels or google it. For instance, Kubuntu 20.04 looks like it's supported until 2023 from looking on google | 19:47 |
| frost-core | leftyfb : yeah, lubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu mate and budgie too | 19:48 |
| guiverc | frost-core, flavors haven't shortened lives; ubuntu desktop/server extended life & flavors did not | 19:48 |
| leftyfb | guiverc: you mean "have" | 19:48 |
| frost-core | guiverc : also, is it recommended running bionic beaver? | 19:48 |
| frost-core | and, if i install bionic beaver server, THEN install kubuntu desktop for example, do i still keep my support? | 19:49 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: it's always recommended to upgrade when possible. I don't see why you would install a release from 4 years ago from scratch | 19:49 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: why would you install bionic? | 19:49 |
| frost-core | leftyfb : its kinda performant i think, also older means faster | 19:50 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: negative | 19:50 |
| guiverc | frost-core, only packages found in 'main' have 5 years; kubuntu-desktop comes from 'universe' which is EOL; you can verify using `ubuntu-support-status` on 18.04 (`ubuntu-security-status` on later releases) | 19:50 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: To say Ubuntu 18.04 is more "performant" than Ubuntu 20.04 is demonstratively false | 19:51 |
| guiverc | EOL maybe wrong term there ^; unsupported by Kubuntu team is more accurate; if a community member wants to upgrade/fix security issues it's still possible for 18.04; but teams have ended life of it | 19:51 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: also, there's little difference and no benefit installing ubuntu server and then a DE over just installing the desktop release | 19:52 |
| frost-core | there are benifits, no preinstalled apps | 19:52 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: depends on how you installed the DE | 19:53 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: it's probably a cleaner experience if you just install the desktop release and remove apps you don't think you need | 19:55 |
| leftyfb | frost-core: otherwise you might have to spend more time configuring and integrating things that would work out of the box with the whole DE installed properly | 19:55 |

| Guest39 | I am afraid to "Install Now" since it doesn't show where it plans to install it. I don't want to overwrite my other drives. | 20:39 |
